Stamp Shows Canada+US - Blacklisting Edmonton? Good!

wrote: It seems that the poorly attened show this year may be the last one for Edmonton. Guess that enough dealers heeded the call for a boycott, and the lack of good publicity discouraged so many potential attendees, that the attendance was abysmal! I'm taking a break from a heavy research paper, so I need an unconscious diversion from the task at hand. So, Mr. Asterix (who is not fooling anyone with his nym), did you stand outside the Edmonton show with your sandwich board signs draped around your neck, to show the entire world that you are removing all doubt as to your sanity? I can see Mr. Asterix in the shopping lines, instead of talking about the weather or saying something nice to the person next to him, "Did you hear about the Edmonton show this year?" Person next to him looks extremely perplexed and backs away. -Or- "Excuse me, I must check the rest room for those smart stamp thieves. They could be just about anywhere, you know." -Or- When Mr. Asterix goes to bed, he must play back a complete series of his warnings, rants and diatribes on a tape player that loops. This gives him the subliminal message and courage needed to keep the faith in the morning. -Or- While reading the morning paper, Mr. Asterix is disturbed not to see anything about the Edmonton show and implications thereof, he must hurry and post a message on rcsd so that he can feel in touch with the media. -Or- As Mr. Asterix walks his dog, of diminutive size no doubt, he allows the dog to advertise for him about the show. Silent pride with a task so great, he needs subordinates to dominate because of his immense task at hand. -Or- As Mr. Asterix sits down to dinner, he asks "Please pass the Edmonton - oops - Worcestershire sauce please." Mr. Asterix's walls must be plastered with used tickets and memorabilia of the Edmonton show, neatly lined up as trophies of the bygone good old days before the alleged thieves came to town. On his daily errands, Mr. Asterix must be putting up billets whenever possible, thinking that Joe Public truly cares about someone else's stamp losses. He probably has been ticketed by the police for wanton stapling of these posters on poor telephone poles. Before he hops into his car, he checks the magnetic signs on the sides of his car "Boycott Edmonton!" and the bumper stickers "Edmonton Sux!" to see if they've been stolen or had graffiti written on them. When Mr. Asterix looks in the mirror, he has a hard time shaving because of the image of the Penny Black that keeps staring back at him. How can we deface the Queen! :^P One thing that Mr. Asterix cannot see is that the people of rcsd are not duped, stumped or otherwise bewildered by this caped crusader of stamp hobbyists. We realize that this person has a serious obsessive-compulsive disorder and presents it here because of his true fear of his real life. Sad... If we were to take all of Mr. Asterix's postings, make a book out of them and send them to a psychotherapist, he may be able to diagnose a new disorder. But - why waste the time and effort? He has no sense of reality, but rather would live in a fantasy world of his choosing - the vaunted halls, bourse and rest rooms of the Edmonton Show. This is not a person who wants help, but needs help. Serious help. I hope that someday he may get the help he justly deserves. Back to the research paper now. By the way - it is about the megalomaniacs, kleptocrats and other sordid and sundry peoples that abused the Congo. This has been one of my collecting areas of choice. I'll let Mr. Asterix keep collecting Edmonton... ======================= Tracy Barber ----------------------- adirondack-pc ----------------------- "Freebie Stamp Project" ======================= |

People used to attend shows, for fun, NOT TO HAVE THEIR MATERIAL STOLEN, probably by show insiders!! Ah well, it's your Asterix. |

Stamp Shows Canada+US - Blacklisting Edmonton? Good!
Our correspondent is, of course, the renowned "Grosvenor" the scourge
of normality everywhere and a thorn in the side of respectability and responsibilty worldwide. His posts are to be seen on boards between Vancouver and Vladivostok. I quote from a student of his rants (yes, I believe there will shortly be a thesis completed on his behavious over the past 10 years on the internet). "Grosvenor, 48, has a criminal record for assault and extortion, that he was diagnosed at Riverview Psychiatric Hospital in British Columbia in 1973 as suffering from a paranoid personality disorder, and that his harassment of the Ghermezians is only the latest in a 20-year series of vendettas against corporations and individuals, including leading figures of the British Columbia legislature and judiciary.[26]" Says it all! |
