Little Hawk, I blame you for this, Thank You! It seems you have opened my eyes to a whole new way of making a living. Surely there is a market for such fine poetry.

I'm getting better at them limericks too, I think. Spaw - you really have no shame, do you? It mystifies me that a man with your obvious smarts and keen instincts can't appreciate "Space Oddity" more. It's weird. It's uncanny. It should be investigated on the "Explaining the unexplained" thread. |

Subject: RE: DON'T POST TO THIS THREAD!!! From: flattop Date: 05 Sep 00 - 07:17 AM Do you ever wake up in the morning thinking, "I believe that Little Hawk's opinion is a lazy cop-out?" Well, so do I. For openers, if anything, Hawk's press releases are an icon for the deterioration of the city, for its slow slide into crime, malaise, and filth. You've never heard him announce that he plans to caricature and stereotype people from other cultures? Well, Hawk has repeatedly enunciated such a plan, but in his typically convoluted way. It saddens me that we must defy him. As mentioned above, however, that is not enough. It is necessary to do more. It is necessary to change the minds of those who pit people against each other. For better or for worse, in these days of political correctness and the changing of how history is taught in schools to fulfill a particular agenda, he should not perpetuate myths that glorify misoneism. Not now, not ever. My love for people necessitates that I lead Hawk out of a dream world and back to hard reality. Yes, I face opposition from Hawk. However, this is not a reason to quit but to strive harder. As is so often the case, he wants to revile everything in the most obscene terms and drag it into the filth of the basest possible outlook. You know what groups have historically wanted to do the same thing? Fascists and Nazis. It should be readily apparent that if Hawk is completely unaware of the difference between a correlation and a causation, then his promise of equality is a false one. Period, finis, and Q.E.D. Moving on, larrikinism is not merely an attack on our moral fiber. It is also a politically-motivated attack on knowledge. The bottom line is that Little Hawk's agendas are intellectually and morally indefensible. Sincerely, fla http://www-csag.cs.uiuc.edu/individual/pakin/complaint |

Subject: RE: DON'T POST TO THIS THREAD!!! From: Little Hawk Date: 05 Sep 00 - 09:19 AM That's pretty cool stuff flattop. You have actually come up with some words I've never seen before, and that's not easy. I am going to go and get the dictionary and see if I can find them. That should be great fun. As for your petty fascist ramblings and inane assertions of moral superiority I will pass those on to Spaw, with the fond hope that he farts in your general direction. Okay, let's see... "misoneism" - hmmm...sorry...no such word anywhere in Websters New Canadian Edition (extra large and complete) "larrikinism" - same story. No such word. My friend, you are either a very amusing guy...or you are losing your mind. (BTW, Song circle was great, eh?) My feeling is that if you would simply reduce your daily intake of lasparaginase, and then apply the minimax theorem to your debating style, you would soon find a gentle and calming antidote to these random and really quite inappropriate outbursts. Now let me see if I can come up with another limerick...

From: catspaw49 Date: 05 Sep 00 - 09:31 AM ....uh..........Hawk?............Ol Flat has been having a good time with the Automatic Complaint Generator (we've run some threads on it before) and if you'll check that site he listed, you too can crank out a personalized, gibberish laden complaint!!! I generally write my own. The other ones make me wanna' fart. And BTW, its a little known fact, but Space Oddity was written on an Automatic Bizarre Song Generator. Spaw |

Subject: RE: DON'T POST TO THIS THREAD!!! From: Little Hawk Date: 05 Sep 00 - 04:08 PM This letter is not a memoir. Nor is it a policy memorandum issued by the government or by a local think tank. Rather, it is an assessment of how I am not ashamed to admit that some of Rabbi Klint K Klintovsky's former cronies say they were willing to help Rabbi Klintovsky preach fear and ignorance because Rabbi Klintovsky convinced them that they were part of a historic mission to save the world from a pouty global conspiracy -- a belief they now reject as irascible. I realize that some of you may not know the particular background details of the events I'm referring to. I'm not going to go into those details here, but you can read up on them elsewhere. It's likely that as soon as our backs are turned he will commit senseless acts of violence against anyone daring to challenge his chauvinistic threats if we don't stop him now. Let me recap that for you, because it really is extraordinarily important: His lackeys carry out orders like puppets obeying the puppeteer. To pretend otherwise is nothing but hypocrisy and unwillingness to face the more unpleasant realities of life. What does Rabbi Klintovsky have to say about all of this? The answer, as expected, is nothing. Please don't misinterpret that last statement to mean that cannibalism, wife-swapping, and the murder of infants and the elderly are acceptable behavior. That's not at all what it means. Rather, it means that he has stated that he can replace our natural soul with an artificial one and get away with it. That's just pure nativism. Well, in Rabbi Klintovsky's case, it might be pure ignorance, seeing that I've heard of noxious things like blackguardism and narcissism. But I've also heard of things like nonviolence, higher moralities, and treating all beings as ends in and of themselves -- ideas which Rabbi Klintovsky's ignorant, unthinking, wayward brain is too small to understand. It may be obvious but should nonetheless be acknowledged that the space remaining in this letter will not suffice even to enumerate the ways in which Rabbi Klintovsky has tried to put hate-filled thoughts in our children's minds. It seems to me that, as others have stated long before me, "Rabbi Klintovsky's is the prototypical face of tribalism." Assume for a moment that a large percentage of his henchmen can be termed lackadaisical. It therefore follows that some flippant freeloaders actually claim that things have never been better. This is the kind of muddled thinking that he is encouraging with his witticisms. Even worse, all those who raise their voice against this brainwashing campaign are denounced as sinful pop psychologists. Rabbi Klintovsky is not only counter-productive, but he also lacks the self-control necessary to conform his behavior to reasonable norms. With this letter, I hope I have made my views clear: Rabbi Klint K Klintovsky has an uncanny ability to thoroughly miss the point of any given issue. So there! |

Subject: RE: DON'T POST TO THIS THREAD!!! From: flattop Date: 05 Sep 00 - 08:32 PM I thought that you guys wouldn't insult Rabbi Klintovsky unless it was in limerick. Looks like I had you going Little Hawk. I just got home from Toronto and I notice that you didn't explain why I told you at Song Circle that I should have brought a computer generated complaint leter. |

Subject: RE: DON'T POST TO THIS THREAD!!! From: Little Hawk Date: 05 Sep 00 - 08:40 PM Oh...did you say something, flattop? :-) Ha! Ha! No, I could have explained it, but I was in a hurry somewhat, so I didn't. I love the complaint generator and I am seriously considering sending the Klintovsky complaint letter to the Orillia Packet. It would certainly puzzle them no end. I wouldn't put my name on it, of course, because I have a reputation to uphold in this town. I'd put yours on it instead. :-) |

Subject: RE: DON'T POST TO THIS THREAD!!! From: hesperis Date: 05 Sep 00 - 10:30 PM Let's talk about Flattop's epithets. Let's talk about them in a very specific and personal way. Let me begin by citing a range of examples from the public sphere. For starters, most law-abiding citizens disapprove of Flattop's methods. Let me try to explain what I mean by that in a single sentence: In asserting that ill-bred authoritarians are inherently good, sensitive, creative, and inoffensive, he demonstrates an astounding narrowness of vision. If I try really, really hard, I can almost see why he would want to clear-cut ancient forest lands. I have never been in favor of being gratuitously myopic. I have also never been in favor of sticking my head in the sand or of refusing to present a clear picture of what is happening, what has happened, and what is likely to happen in the future. Flattop's excuses are based on a technique I'm sure you've heard of. It's called "lying". Flattop equates non-cooperation and solitariness with individuality, and deep down in our bones, we all know why. As far as I can tell, we must remove our chains and move towards the light. (In case you didn't understand that analogy, the chains symbolize Flattop's self-indulgent maneuvers, and the light represents the goal of getting all of us to take stock of what we know, identify areas for further research, and provide a useful starting point for debate on his immoral views.) Before bothering us with his next batch of sappy conclusions, he should review the rules of writing a persuasive essay, most notably the one about sticking to the topic the writer establishes. Sure, it sounds dissolute. Blame that on self-centered paper-pushers (especially the neurotic type). If you want a better opportunity to get a job, raise a family in a safe neighborhood, have a better chance at a good education, and lower the taxes on the money you earn, then I ask that you help me build a better world, a cleaner world, a safer world, and a saner world. Strictly speaking, every time Flattop utters or writes a statement that supports faddism -- even indirectly -- it sends a message that skin color means more than skill and gender is more impressive than genius. I believe we mustn't let him make such statements, partly because his "compromises" are simply counterproductive to society, but primarily because when he was first found trying to destabilize society, I was scared. I was scared not only for my personal safety; I was scared for the people I love. And now that Flattop is planning to cause sexist subversion to gather momentum on college campuses, I'm terrified. Flattop's cronies would sooner ally with evil than oppose it. That's all I have to say. Thank you for reading this letter. (in)Sincerely, hesperis |

Subject: RE: DON'T POST TO THIS THREAD!!! From: Little Hawk Date: 05 Sep 00 - 11:35 PM God, that's utterly wonderful! LOL! Now for that bloody Major Tom-slandering Spaw.... I can only hope the readers of this letter are as outraged as I am at Spaw. As this letter will make clear, I wonder what would happen if Spaw really did undermine serious institutional and economic analyses and replace them with a diverting soap opera of loud vile conspiracies. There's a spooky thought. Those who get involved with his disingenuous cronies are seldom aware of his dealings with naive dim-witted underachievers. Am I saying that the little I've written so far already buttresses the assertion that it's not a question of if but only of when he will prey on people's fear of political and economic instability? Yes. That there's no point in arguing with him? Maybe. That the evidence for this lies in the underlying assumptions behind his arguments? Definitely. I am morally and ethically opposed to his statements. Interestingly, he doesn't seem to care about that. Just think: Spaw's lackeys argue that cultural tradition has never contributed a single thing to the advancement of knowledge or understanding. These are the same depraved mountebanks who manufacture and compile daunting lists of imaginary transgressions committed against him. This is no coincidence; Spaw presents himself as a disinterested classicist lamenting the infusion of politically-motivated methods of pedagogy and analysis into higher education. He is eloquent in his denunciation of modern scholarship, claiming it favors gin-swilling ruffians. And here we have the ultimate irony, because I, not being one of the many bloodthirsty mouthpieces for ribald racialism of this world, challenge him to point out any text in this letter that proposes that he should ignite a maelstrom of feudalism because "it's the right thing to do". It isn't there. There's neither a hint nor a suggestion of such a thing. If we are to replace today's chaos and lack of vision with order and a supreme sense of purpose, then we must be guided by a healthy and progressive ideology, not by the amoral and myopic ideologies that Spaw promotes. If the past is any indication of the future, he will once again attempt to go to great lengths to conceal his true aims and mislead the public. After hearing about Spaw's nettlesome attempts to endorse a complete system of leadership by mobocracy, I was saddened. I was saddened that he has lowered himself to this level. We don't need to demonize Spaw; he is already a demon, and furthermore, his hypocrisy is transparent. Even the least discerning among us can see right through it. Although letting resentful undesirables give rise to unruly hippies is unthinkable, we are here to gain our voice in this world, and whether or not Spaw approves, we will continue to be heard.

Subject: RE: DON'T POST TO THIS THREAD!!! From: catspaw49 Date: 05 Sep 00 - 11:37 PM You really are at your wit's end for something to do aren't you? I think if you do this you need to change your name to Braxton Bragg II. The original, a somewhat dyspeptic Confederate general, well known for his continual carping about everything, had a similar experience prior to the Civil War. He was the Quartermaster on a post where the commander died, which left Bragg in charge. As commander he became unhappy with the function of the quartermaster and began a long series of memos back and forth with HIMSELF!!! Needless to say his generalship during the war was somewhat less than masterful and they say "he wore failure like a habit." Say......Was Major Tom's last name Bragg? Spaw |

Subject: RE: DON'T POST TO THIS THREAD!!! From: flattop Date: 05 Sep 00 - 11:45 PM Did Little Hawk confess about his Alanis impersonations on another thread or has he been PMing the fartMeister? |
|
Subject: RE: DON'T POST TO THIS THREAD!!! From: catspaw49 Date: 06 Sep 00 - 12:00 AM No, the Alanis thing came up on another thread and of course LH took to it like a hyena on a rotting warthog. Next we see the the Complaint Generator which produced similar results. When he's finished playing Braxton Bragg, I'll suggest he go to William Shatner Dialogue Generator for a narration on his efforts. This should occupy him for the next day at least. Spaw |

Subject: RE: DON'T POST TO THIS THREAD!!! From: hesperis Date: 06 Sep 00 - 12:04 AM LH - you are getting the hang of harnessing randomness, I see. ROTFLMAOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!

Subject: RE: DON'T POST TO THIS THREAD!!! From: flattop Date: 06 Sep 00 - 12:10 AM Why am I always the last to know, hesperis? Did he admit that he put a tune to it and then sang it at Song Circle last night and that most people in the room joined in on the chorus? |
|
Subject: RE: DON'T POST TO THIS THREAD!!! From: hesperis Date: 06 Sep 00 - 12:55 AM Well, if you spent as much time on Mudcat as LH, you'd probably know everything of what's going on... You'd also have very little time for anything else, like LH. *g* No, he hasn't admitted that yet. But now that you've done that for him he doesn't have to. (I dared him to sing it at Song Circle. People sang along because no-one there can stand to NOT add a harmony line to anything, even when it's not appropriate!) (j/k) BTW, I wrote an Alanis fake myself. I'll send it to you. It's hilarious, mostly because it's actually somewhat accurate. I need to put some music to it now. Possibly with Mandolin accompaniment. That would be ironic, don'tcha think? |
|
Subject: RE: DON'T POST TO THIS THREAD!!! From: CarolC Date: 06 Sep 00 - 01:00 AM Um, ok, just who is Major Tom, anyway? Did he write any good limericks? Any dirty ones? He must be pretty amazing since Spaw likes him so much. |

Subject: RE: DON'T POST TO THIS THREAD!!! From: flattop Date: 06 Sep 00 - 07:51 AM You have a mandolin hesperis? One of our Song Circle regulars questioned Alanis's use or misuse of the word ironic, I think. That was her song? |
|
Subject: RE: DON'T POST TO THIS THREAD!!! From: hesperis Date: 06 Sep 00 - 11:32 AM I have someone else's mandolin, yes. Since very recently. I have somewhere around 10 instruments, only 5 of which are actually mine... "Ironic" is one of my favorite songs by Alanis, although rain on your wedding day isn't ironic at all, just unfortunate. I need to write another limerick! Arrgh!!! Good stuff, Carol. |
|
Subject: RE: DON'T POST TO THIS THREAD!!! From: Little Hawk Date: 06 Sep 00 - 12:12 PM No, but it IS ironic that Alanis would think that rain on your wedding day is ironic, isn't it? Ha! Ha! If it was as ironic as Alanis thinks it is, then it would be really ironic, but it's only as ironic as Major Tom thnks it is, and Major Tom seldom thinks that anything is ironic, except, of course, for that unfortunate "toad the wet sprocket" incident, which I explained to Spaw awhile back, and that was definitely ironic, considering the utter improbability of a toad reducing a 17 billion dollar spacecraft to a drifting pile of space junk. Have I said enough? To explain about Major Tom...He is a character in the David Bowie song "Space Oddity", an astronaut who comes to grief when his space capsule malfunctions. I consider "Space Oddity" to be a brilliant song, Spaw considers it to be a piece of worthless dreck. Spaw, of course, is insane. Likeable, but insane. 'Nuff said. |
