Here's a rhetorical question for you.

If you saw an emotionally disturbed individual coming towards you on
the sidewalk, muttering to himself and shouting insults, would you
engage him in conversation or steer clear?


True story. When I was active in substance abuse volunteer work, I
interviewed a homeless guy who would tell these fantastic stories
about this famous person and that famous legal case inbetween talking
to his imaginary friend and/or friends. He even got into a fist fight
one time with one - it was amazing to watch.

Anyway to make a long story short, he said something one day that
caused me to do a little investigating. Turned out the guy was once a
famous attorney - a real big shot partner in a big time Boston Law
firm. I contacted the firm, talked to one of the senior partners and
the next thing you know, he's off to one of the big time rehab centers
- they had been looking for him for a few years. A year later he
looked me up - still "crazy" in one way, but he was stable and back at
work doing what he loved to do.

You never know. Sometimes these unbalanced personalities can tell a
great story. And I love a great story. :)

That was a great story. If it doesn't inspire Harry to seek psychiatric
help and get back on his feet, nothing will.

Mine will go way down. Not responding to nomde's drivel has to cause a
significant decrease in posting.

Yeah, but Harry (let's face it, we are talking about Harry here)

when I was doing that sort of volunteer work. :)

Just tring to lighten the mood.

"Back on his feet"? Harry has never been on his feet, he has always been
a leech on society, never having a real job and all. Harry is living on
the sweat of hard working Americans.....

Complete bull**** since it doesn't account for the folks who change
their names every 3rd day.

Add up all your, Herrings, The Freak and others multiple personalities
and you'd have a different picture.

Flawed, just like the majority of your thoughts.
It also "counts" pickups...when someone picks up a previous post
containing an email address and adds a comment.


And I thought Youse guys would be honored to be on the list.
And that's why you posted it, you silly little bitch.

Hey. Watch it. I and Nancy Pelosi are the bitches here. (You see, it's ok
for me to call myself and another woman the B word. We're not misogynists
like some people.)

You still talking to JPS? He's gay, you know.


So is your dad.


LOL, you sure set that idiot straight.

Yeah, but Harry (let's face it, we are talking about Harry here) really
hasn't had enough life experience, never held a real job, or never done
anything of real interest to most anybody. That is why he is so angry
now, I often say, hell is living to an old age, as a failure. Never
having done anything you really wanted to do and sitting there stewing
about it.. That's our Harry, in a nutshell.


I often say, hell is living to an old age, as a failure.

Fits you to tee, Oompaloompa.
