DOWN WITH SOMETHING | 2006-07-23
One comment I cannot find reminded me of what Rooster Cogburn said in the True Grit sequel:
"I hired a guy to be foreman on my ranch, but he was always DOWN With Something. Every time
something needed doing he was sick."
One of the few things that is more tiresome than dealing with what a commenter shrewdly
called "perpetually inert people" is having to answer EXCUSES as to why they are perpetually
inert.
So like those who keep giving me the astounding news that Jews have a lot of power, there
are those who keep reminding me that inert people have an excuse to be inert. So one
commenter told me that the reason people did not go the trouble of putting Bob's Mantra in
newsgroups was because they were afraid to put their names on the Mantra in public.
If this person had ever BEEN in a newsgroup, which would have taken less time than making up
this excuse, he would know that people in newsgroups use fake names just the way we do here.
If you don't want to bother, please don't tell tell me what you're DOWN with this time.
