Don't go impugnin' on me honor, now, matey.*

May I clear the record? The original unidentified guest poster was NOT highlandman.

I post as "guest, highlandman" because I am too lazy to fight with the cookie-eating demon that lives in my computer. I always identify myself although I may not be logged in, except when I forget, in which case I always make it right afterward.

I did post as myself afterward to get in a friendly dig at Diane at the original (deleted) guest's expense. Surely Diane realizes that her online persona is legendarily abrasive and worthy of the occasional left-handed compliment, which is what my "funny" remark was meant to be. Not that I think any crap singer-songwriter's output is particularly funny (how some people turn things around!), I just got a chuckle out of the ARSS poke and (not being an fRoots denizen) I had never heard it and credited Diane with making it up on the spot.

But I'm glad my post was deleted because without the original one there it looked completely random.

Ah, forget it. I actually had something to say on the thread topic but now I don't remember what it was.
