To whom is this touch directed, Sheldon? snipped the goodies ROFLOLOL! Hey, MZ, I knew Shellykins was hoisted by his own petard, but your repsonses make me realize that "skyrockets in flight" is so much more appropriate! He is out of this world. Sheldon, give it a rest, be a human, and enjoy life and friends. Life is too short to waste time; being crunchy. I hope I've left enough errors in this ,missive to give you pleasure corre,cting something. ,;'[]=-)*&,all we are saying,, ,, ,is give peace a chance,, \][,,, /\/\??,,,,/?]\ WAR! HUH! What is it good for? Absolutely NOTHING satrap |

".... mother****ing zero"
I think your mom is free to do whatever she wants with zeroes. It could be worse. She could like crazy eights or somethin'. |

As you know, I have been attempting to coax Sheldon back to his usual very high standards for flames. Your comparison of Sheldon to Oscar Wilde, even in this back-handed way, I fear, will lull Sheldon into a sense of complacency with respect to the quality of his own work, which ultimately could harm my own efforts. I ask you to consider this in future. Now, to Sheldon, Ken raises an admirable point. I still await your guidance on several points with respect to English grammar. How could it be that your research is taking you so long when, as you say, "...the entire internet [sic] is at ones [sic] fingertips?" Is it possible to give me a future date for the anticipated completion of your research? I sit doe-eyed at your feet in awe of the knowledge you might share. Since I have returned to the subject of English grammar, Sheldon. I note four points in your use of an ellipsis when quoting my header in an earlier reply, above. The authoritative tomes I have consulted, along with research on the Internet, have indicated that the proper form of an ellipsis is to use three equally spaced points, unless the ellipsis extends to the end of a sentence. In this case four points is the accepted form, the last being a period. Since there was no abbreviated sentence in your use of the ellipsis, above, it appears you could have made an error. If you would be so kind, please, add this point to your research on English grammar. A delay on your part in response to this is to be expected given the amount of your current research, so, please, take this into account when calculating the anticipated date for the completion of your research. Finally, Sheldon, I must take you to task for your reference to my sexual habits. I have already mentioned that one does not discuss such things in public. Myriad are the ways in which you may offend me without resorting to such coarse behavior. I beseech you to refrain from such conduct in the future for it only lowers your standing in my eyes and, I suspect, the eyes of others. I ask you both, Ken and Sheldon, for your forgiveness for my unseemly interruption. Please, carry on. Best regards, Mark Z. |

Sheldon was the first entry, several years ago, in my killfile. Life is much
more pleasant without him. Apparently, others feel the need to engage Sheldon. This is a mistake. It is like selling drugs to an addict. Or teasing a mentally handicapped person. And by quoting Sheldon in your responses to him, you are by-passing my killfile and increasing my blood pressure. Sheldon is ill. He needs help. The best help we can offer is to ignore him. Please place him in your killfile and move on with the discussion of fountain pens. Thanks. Bob "mz" wrote in message gic.net... Ken wrote: "PENMART01" wrote in message ...

others. Therefore, I repair from the field. Mark Z. |

Could I ask that those who have to respond to the twit edit the subject to include "Sheldon" in some form or fashion? I'd go so far as to add a second entry on the title! Pat |
