MDuPree@world.std.com (Micky DuPree) huffed and puffed:

<<Can't you people read? I told ONE person to write me about PAL copies.>>

****Wrong, Mr./Ms. DuPree. You told ALL on the Sandbagger list to write to
you. Perhaps you should learn how to send private messages privately.

<<WHERE THE HELL ARE THOSE PEOPLE WHO TOOK MY OTHER COPIES AND RAN? >>

****Is this a rhetorical question? No? Well, then, let's see if I have this
straight. You sent all of your copies of the Sandbagger tapes to strangers
and made no provision for the return of said tapes. Now you can't track down
these cyberbuddy borrowers. You SHOUT IN CAPS at the subscribers to an
Internet mailing list, in hopes that the people in whom you may have
touchingly (mis)placed your trust are a) still subscribed b) will be
forthcoming with the tapes and/or c) give a shit.

My, my - you buggered that one, didn't you, Micky? No wonder you're angry!
Feeling more than a little foolish? Has projection of that irritation with
yourself onto the rest of us made you feel better?

"......neither a borrower nor a lender be......", or at least accept that
you do so at your own peril. Didn't Mom teach you that one?
