Of course you do. Nothing gets mentioned here that you do not have
personal experience with. Some day tell us about how you and Lincoln
wrote that Gettysburg speech together.

I went into a profession that gave me the opportunity to meet some famous
people. You fixed computers.

I guess I was able to derive my joy from what I was doing and not from
living vicariously through the people I was able to meet. If that was
ll I wanted, I would have been a waiter.


Yeah, I was a people person back then. You were a back room machine person.


I am sure I met more people in my average day than you did, fetching
coffee for the real news writers. I am sure if we could ask Truman who
he had lunch with that day, your name would not come up. He might
remember there was a "gofer" there but I doubt he would remember much
more. Did you read him something someone else wrote, like you do here?


Heheheh. What a little mind you have.


Its still far larger than yours. You have very little original thought. By the way, are quaint little statements like that your only lasting defence?

You certainly seem to keep your intelligence under a box.



That you think I was a "gofer" at The Star is hilarious. I was a
full-fledged reporter from my first day at the paper, and after my short
indoctrination to learn the paper's style book, I spent my time there as
a street reporter, general assignment reporter, and feature story
writer. My last year there, after my reportorial assignment work was
done for the evening, I moved over to the copy desk, where I edited and
marked up copy for typesetting, and in my last six months, before I was
recruited by the Associated Press, I was acting World News Editor
because the actual World News Editor had taken a year's leave and
suggested to the managing editor of the paper that I fill in in his
absence. I was an AP Newsman and then an AP Chief of Bureau. I met
interesting people throughout my news career and, of course, afterwards.

I don't bother to do much enterprise writing here. It's a waste of
effort, what with the plethora of no-nothings and what-about-itis
posters like you.
