virus: The Richard Ridge episode: only for entertainment purposes.

[Richard Ridge]The trout, for her part, was entirely impervious to any of
this, and will doubtless post one of her typically colourful replies to this
post. Doubtless said reply will be quite entertaining when viewed from afar
but I don't think you'd actually want to reply to it.

[Mermaid]I dont have anything colourful to satisfy Richard Ridge's itch. But
because he is arching his rump to be scratched<and he is obviously showing
all signs of boredom>, the following is cut and pasted from the archives
purely for its amusement value. Hmm..nostalgia..it makes me want to sneeze.

[Mermaid]Yes..the Richard Ridge episodes were more amusing than the
RavenBlack tales. <Personally, I did enjoy RavenBlack's posts most of the
time and wish he didnt leave. Now..thats one person who deserves to flatter
himself...> It began with Richard Ridge's confusion between clinical obesity
and looking fat, which is an entirely different matter. Of course, this was
a sub thread introduced by Richard Ridge in the middle of a discussion I was
having on the side with MagicJim about Oprah Winfrey and her weird/wildly
popular television program. *I* didnt invite Richard Ridge to display his
famous 'wit'. Somewhere towards the end of that exchange...

>[Mermaid2]Do you still have anything to say to me?

No, other than to say that I am grateful for yet another demonstration of
your endlessly protean abilities. It reminded me of why I previously vowed
never to murder any of my time by talking to you ever again.

Richard.
Concluding that Dr Sebby and Bill have been right all along. Guaranteed.
<snipped>

[Mermaid comments]The last sentence..surely that is why you flatter
yourself? and people ask me why I am bitchy!!

Pleased to know that you were entertained, but its not my day job. If you
have to guarantee your conclusion with other's opinion, then you probabaly
dont have much emanating from your cranial cavity.

It's true! Vacuum does have a longer shelf life!

who has balls and vision. Guaranteed

"In Greek mythology, Proteus was the son of Poseidon, god of the sea.
Because Proteus could see into the future and always spoke the truth, people
came to rely on him for prophesies and advice about issues of vital
importance. But in order to ask Proteus questions, it was first necessary to
catch him. He made this difficult to do since he was so adept at changing
his shape. Those who were not intimidated by these changes gained his
respect, and he then shared his vision with them."
