[at-l] crock of crap
I've been away for a while, then lurking. Our little list has changed,
ain't it? When I leave we have a good little dose of nude hiking, some
wonderful Shakespeare and homegrown poems, discussion about eminent
domain, a crappy bit of fiction ;-), some gear discussions by nervous '97
thru-hikers, dogs and ropes and beans, and just some good old witty
banter and a slap on the back. I return and the best we can do is a banal
argument over an umbrella? It's not even a piece of backpacking
equipment. But, I'll be damned if I give a
shelter-mouses ass if someone wants to carry one. We've got guys who are
arguing with themselves, or anyone else. That's not what we're about.
Take it to Usenet, boys. Don't get me wrong, I've pissed off my share of
people. I will in the future. Its not intentional, and its not full of
"I'm right, you're wrong" venom. We've lost Charlie Thorpe's wisdom.
Viper's liveliness. Alice's quilt. Raven's wonderful uniqueness. Kahley's
whimsical whatever-it-is. Doug, Slyman, Tumbleweed, Needles,
Gutsy-...Yep, even Felix's nonsensical, what-the-hell-is-he-talking-about
crock of crap is gone.
This ain't a soapbox. It ain't a commercial. It's a wake up call. I'm
goin' to bed.
