[Vision2020] City Council's selective compassion

Wed Dec 14 20:01:02 PST 2005

Mrs. Mix, Quite to the contrary I am having a grand ole time. I'm afraid 
that you're responsible for your own yucks.

With regard to your alleged use of "a serrated edge" I thought that this 
entailed the jest, the jibe, the bon mot, or at the very least some small 
witticism. These elements were conspicuously absent from your post. I am 
afraid that throwing in a passing reference to the Marx brothers hardly 
fills the bill. I have been reading your posts to this forum for over a year 
now and, while they are many things, subtly humorous isn't one of them --  
unless you count that part about 25 years of agonizing prayer. Girl, you 
must be doing something wrong. I don't think it's supposed to hurt!

In closing, I would like to point out that I would very much like to leave 
your internal organs out of any further communications. There's nothing 
particularly amusing about them either, unless this is what it takes for you 
to have a good time then I say, weird but go for it I guess.

Nonanatomicly, G. Crabtree
