<HTML><BODY STYLE="font:10pt verdana; border:none;"><DIV>Alan sadly misreads me, stating:</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>>Miss Opry,</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>>Now see that is what I am talking about... to call a man fat with more syllables and proclaim your love >for him is to rename the rose. Sigh...</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>You may save your sighs, Alan. I was not making reference in my post to Doug's Body Mass Index. I was speaking hyperbolically, though sincerely, of his pretensions. I'm concerned about the inflation of his ego, not his abdomen. Besides, everyone knows that the Internet adds ten pounds.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Joan Opyr/Auntie Establishment</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>PS: No need to track me down through Google. Visit my website: <A href="http://www.auntie-establishment.com/">www.auntie-establishment.com</A>. There, you may read my Co-Op columns in their entirety. Pay careful attention to content because there will be a quiz. I would also direct your attention to "From Queer to Eternity," in The Church of Auntie Establishment sub-domain. That should provide a helpful overview of my long correspondence with Doug and my genuine appreciation of the many opportunities for Swiftian humor that he has afforded us over the years.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#000000 size=2><SPAN style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; COLOR: navy; FONT-FAMILY: Arial"></SPAN></FONT> </DIV></BODY></HTML><br clear=all><hr>Get more from the Web.
