I am dumb struck by the plethora of ways I could respond to this. I could
take the "Miss read your letter approach." In which case I would reply:
How dare you call me a subverted pilot.
I have been in the SCA since 1923 and
I have worked hard to be drunk the entire
time. I haven't seen you at any work days.
If you think I'm flying, then think again!
I hate being called a pilot because I work hard.
Blah blah blah ...
I could take the "compatriot in arms" approach. For which my reply would be:
You got that right! It's that drunk Baron's
fault. He's the one who is the list moderator.
I'll bet he thinks if he suppress the free
exchange of useless banter, that he will
be able to stay in charge forever.
Blah blah blah ...
Or, How about the "any topic to advance my agenda" approach.
My mail keeps getting lost also, so lets
build a five star kitchen at the site. I
think that would help me to feel less
oppressed. Blah blah blah ...
Ok, what about the "any topic to redress old slights."
This is as bad as the time I went to an event at
Bingo Bong Boy Scout Ranch, and the Baron
said the site was dry. The lying #@%&%.
It rained the entire time. And just to make matters
worse he kept sending the autocrat and a Boy
Scout over to bitch at me for drinking.
Blah blah blah ...
What about "the totally off topic response."
Did you hear the one about the two SCA people
and the six pack of shaving cream?
Blah blah blah ...
Or the "personal attack reply."
Doug, you lick your self instead of bathing,
you foul goat nibbling, yogurt culture,
toilet drinking, carrion biting,
dirt nibbling, chicken romancing,
sordid progeny of a zombie gorilla with
terminal mange and Bill Clinton's greasy tick
plagued loins. Blah blah ...
Could also have done the "lets all be friends approach"
I love you! You should love everyone. This
stress is tearing our barony apart. Lets be
civil. Blah blah blah ...
What about this approach?
Plot???? Subversive??? Well, I'm going
to sign off this list. Someone tell
me how to sign off. I can't do this without
help. I didn't save the letter that we got
when we singed on to the list. Saving e-mail
would use .00023% of my thirty gigabyte hard
drive. Blah blah blah ...

An Atom walks into a bar looking perplexed. He says, "bartender, I just lost
an electron." The bartender responds, "are you sure?" The Atom says, "yup,
I'm positive."
So later this same atom walks into the bar and the bar tender asks him "Hey
why are you so down, still missing your electron?" The atom replies "Nope. I
found it and another one just like it." "So why are you still depressed"
asked the bar tender? "I don't know," replied the atom," but every since I
found that extra electron I just feel so negative."
