Subject: RE: BS: the demise of the boring thread
Interesting how, even when I haven't posted on a particular thread for a few days, Goofup can't resist taking a snotty shot at me.

Goofballupagus, for your information, I don't take Miltown and never have. I don't need tranquilizers or anti-depressants, and any drugs do I take are either over-the-counter, like aspirin, or prescribed by my doctor, such as atenolol for slightly elevated blood pressure, which is not unusual for my age. I drink a couple of cups of coffee per day, an occasional beer or glass of wine (rarely more than one a week, if that much), and I used to smoke cigarettes (tobacco cigarettes), but quit thirty-six years ago. I have never indulged in "recreational drugs" such as marijuana, cocaine, LSD, "magic mushrooms," or any other mind-altering substances.

I leave that sort of stuff to guys like you. If I want anything "mind-altering," I read a good, informative book.

In fact, I read a lot. Which has something to do with my ability to both recognize and write cohesive, grammatically correct sentences.

If I, or anybody, doesn't understand something YOU are trying to say, it's because you don't say it very clearly. Downright opaque most of the time. Which gives a clue to the contents of your so-called "mind."

Back to the real world.
