Thanks kendall excellent thoughts... If they work for you, I'll stick em into my wee bag o tricks...

Oh, and BTW... Of the few times I've aroused any kind of envy... I was totally oblivious (and I still am...). I was writing about the general sense of envy, that I've seen in others, and felt myself... However you decide to take it (CH), you will never see me gloating... I'm simply trying to understand what I see as a potential problem. Like I said at the beginning, I just haven't got a clue... ttr

I've no problem with hecklers, I was one myself once, in a supportive sort of way, of course.
I also have a small collection of retorts that represent a generation of years in folk-clubs, they are not all original with me, some are, and they are mostly funny enough to shut hecklers up without them waiting for me outside.

I haven't looked, has there been a thread specifically on retorts to hecklers and chatterers?
