A Harley rider is riding by the zoo in Washington , DC, when he sees
a little girl leaning into the lion's cage. Suddenly, the lion grabs
her by the cuff of her jacket and tries to pull her inside to
slaughter her, under the eyes of her screaming parents.

The biker jumps off his Harley, runs to the cage and hits the lion
square on the nose with a powerful punch.

Whimpering from the pain the lion jumps back, letting go of the girl,
and the biker brings her to her terrified parents, who thank him
endlessly. A reporter has watched the whole event.

The reporter addressing the Harley rider says, 'Sir, this was the most
gallant and brave thing I've seen a man do in my whole life.'

The Harley rider replies, 'Why, it was nothing, really, the lion was
behind bars. I just saw this little kid in danger and acted as I felt
right.'

The reporter says, 'Well, I'll make sure this won't go unnoticed. I'm
a journalist, you know, and tomorrow's paper will have this story on
the front page... So, what do you do for a living and what political
affiliation do you have?'

The biker replies, 'I'm a U.S. Marine and a Republican.' The
journalist leaves.

The following morning the biker buys the paper to see if it indeed
brings news of his actions, and reads, on the front page:

U.S. MARINE ASSAULTS AFRICAN IMMIGRANT AND STEALS HIS LUNCH

That pretty much sums up the major media's approach to the news these
days.

Herring can't cite a real story so he posts fantasies that sate
his
need to feel self-righteous.

Dreamy story with a fantasy ending. Sounds like most Republican
plans.

Man, without you and Krause guiding her way, the Plum would be
totally
friggin' lost. From what I see, she needs even more guidance.


"The fault, dear Brutus, is not in our stars,
But in ourselves, that we are underlings."



The question, of course, is why does shit-for-brains herring think I
am
guiding "nom" or anyone else here. I've had no contact with "nom."
What
upsets herring, obviously, is that there are a few of us who see him
for
what he is and his positions for what they are, and that we aren't
drinking his contemptible kool-aid.


I don't know either. I haven't communicated out of the newsgroup with
anyone, and I think I'd like to keep it that way. No offense to anyone
is
intended, but I know about stalkers and I don't want to get something
going
that can't easily be stopped.

Don't be so rigid. Can't you tell the flatoejam has a crush on you?
If you continue to let his adoration go unrequited, he might put a
diaper on and drive out to see you.

Hahahahaha.... it might be worth it just to see him in a diaper!

I'm thinking Baby Huey.


Can't understand why you wouldn't want to attend our yearly cookout
and crossburning in Mississippi. Herring sponsors the wood and
gasoline purchases. The Freak is threatening to do his Evil Kneivel
over the burning cross. Jackoff is going to dress his pontoon floater
in a sheet and pointy hat.

Yes, I think I'll pass on that. There are plenty of wacko macho types up
here in the woods.

But boys from the bayou are so much weirder!

We don't have any black, hispanic or female members yet (no one could
prove Karen was really female and FlaJim just acts like a girl).

You could be the first!

I'll have to figure out how to post a pic in a place that won't reveal
my
true identity. I wouldn't want anyone to have a close enounter with
terror
cat.

Please post two, one where you're posing with a semi-automatic weapon.

The other could be for the non-reptilian crowd. Your choice of venue.


One's good for now. I have more recent, more "glamorous" shots (hair
styled and more brown highlights, make-up, etc.), but I don't want to get
you boys crazy and a few of you are married.

This is from a a couple years ago on an up-north vacation, but nothing
much has changed for the worse. My hair more brownish and longer now.
