Just in case anyone is looking for a lost Rumple, look no further. He is safe, showered, fed, and sitting on my living room floor here in Vienna tuning his guitar (among other less mentionable things). You may recall the dogs for all is well with the world.

Crickey!! Here he comes now...

Hi Chance
Hi Rumple
...
I am confused...Amsterdam...Vienna...?
is there, perhaps,as he himself suggests-(holy wombat goop)- more than one Rumple
I am glad at least one of them is washed and content and rolling on somebody's floor...

Oh dear, well its not the first time fictions been passed off as fact for self gratification. nor the first time imaginary friends have been invented by the lonely
As if there could be more than one rumple and as if credibility and chance share the same universe.
So the interesting question is probably best asked of the trustworthy.
Hey Rumple.. Ever been to chances place? This week?
........

[Barry]

sort of my take on the situation, as well, martin.

but i don't know chance nor his freind credibility so i thought it was fair to pose the question to both of chance and rumple, never expecting a response from a third quarter...

i wonder if i am now in for a serious berating from an outspoken yet not well thought out corner...

or perhaps i am opening myself up to a big can of gherkin twisties.

[martin ewen]

Yes well the credibility issue has long been an amusing in-joke.
Self important diatribes and transparent attempts to gain attention by any means fair or foul are not usually the only pivots from which a personality hangs, still even metaphorical bodies like the p.net membership need, for the sake of the group dynamic, people representitive of its various organs and chance has fulfilled the sphinkter role admirably for years and for this we are all sardonically grateful.
Having just gone to the profile page I also noticed that the website magicchance.com has expired/no longer exists.
So went off to Google, Magic chance/ chance escape artist/ chance performer... all came up empty,
I tried a direct quote from his own profile.. Chance..Entertainer (Magician, Escape Artist, Daredevil).
The top hit/ first return:
Nazi Movies: A Window into the Third Reich. (try it at home)
A strange unease... does this guy even exist... its spooky. Does anyone know his REAL name. Could one of his imaginary friends have overpowered his fickle mind and gone off in a new but equally tedious identity to Vienna ?
Perhaps Rumple has the answer?

Barry, Martin-

Over here in my tiny corner of the world my girlfriend was reading your letters just now and came away with the impression that you were both calling me a liar and asshole.

Now, while I know that this is absolutely not what the two of you meant, try as I might I just can't convince her of this truth.

Maybe you two guys would like to try your luck at this. After all, since all she did was open our home to a guest -- her first time welcoming another busker into our home no less -- she is having a very difficult time wondering what all the fuss is about.

And while you're both busy explaining your motives to her (her name is Katharina), maybe you would trouble yourselves to also describe what crow tastes like, non?

[Barry]

amusing, and still piquant

[martin ewen]

Still no word from rumple.
Chance (or whoever) if your hand can actually pass through your girlfriend then thats a bad sign.

[martin ewen]

Gosh.. still no word from rumple.....
(who as far as I know has never said a bad word about anyone ever- not in his nature)
Unless you have him gagged at your place chance while you crow over a friendship that doesn't exist I'd say at this point its game over.
Still in your topsy turvy world where nothing is quite what it seems. (puff of smoke- gasps)
Who can say

[fracksfreakshow]

ok frack is lost, but could it be that chance and rumple are one in the same? chance = rumple, is it true? alter ego's, split personality, whatever it be? anyone actually ever seen these two together at the same time or always they both just happen to miss each other by seconds? yep yep frack attack.

Said the Cheshire Cat from high in his tree.


Rumple, Rumple, where art thou
Are you on the floor with the weird escapologist
Or should we send him for a brain scan at the local proctologist?

Isn't there a Vienna in Virginia? Which continent are we talking about here? Has chance got Rumple captive, chained and hand-cuffed, somewhere in religious belts of eastern US? Has he got him trapped in that beautiful old straight-jacket that he cant fit into any more(let alone get out of again)?

Don't worry Rumple, if he has got you, we're on out way but if you get the chance to escape, do so. He's got to sleep sometime and we know you can outlast us all. Hang in there, think of Dantes.

[Chance]

psssst! Hey, Martin, over here.

Maybe the reason there has been no word from Rumble is that there aren't any internet connections on busses in Europe? From what I hear it's a fair bit from Vienna to Amsterdam, and since he hit the road at 6:30 pm yesterday... Even with your foot in your mouth you could do the math.

[Chance]

Hey Frack! Since you really are an innocent by-stander I am going to let you in on something which might help clear things up a little.

Something got started two years ago on the original p.net boards where I was unjustly accused of stealing from another busker.

No matter what I said about the matter there were always three voices here crying out what a scoundrel I was. I say 'scoundrel' only because it would be impossible to go back and catalog all the other words that were used.

But it would be accurate to say that I was called some very foul names many, many times by these 3 people. And just like here, my "credibility" was an issue. I was not to be believed no matter how much I protested my innocence.

The original claim had been made, my accuser was a friend of theirs so he was to be believed at all costs, and that was that -- end of discussion: Chance did it! More than once it was mentioned that Jim should ban me from these boards for having stolen from another busker... and all of this was just because of the verbal claims of one person, someone who has something to hide which I personally knew about and would do anything to discredit me -- and who had not one piece of evidence against me regarding this suppossed theft. Because of my history with this person (with something to hide) I was positive that no theft had even taken place to begin with.

For me all I can say it that it was all quite surreal.

And then, after roughly two years into the whole crazy scene of having to answer weekly, if not daily, accusations, insults and various other harrassment from these people who just would not let me be at peace here, the impossible happened: the real thief got named and outed in these forums by Robert Nelson.

Ever since then the harrassment has tapered off quite a bit, but it has not gone away completely. By now it seems the habit of attacking me is so ingrained in these folks that they just can not let it go.

Just in case you are wondering -- no, nobody has ever made the attempt to apologize for their insults and false accusations. Not here in the public boards where most of the attacks took place, or even to my private email account.

And the weirdest part of all of the whole thing -- as if being accused for two years of a crime I did not commit isn't crazy enough -- is that my accusers are people I have never even met in person! Not even to this day.

So now we have come full circle.

Now, in this thread, all that happened as you can see is that Rumple was visiting Vienna for a festival and was put up in my home. And for this I am attacked -- yes, by the very same people that were attacking me from before. Can you see how crazy and surreal it all is? My girlfriend is totally amazed by the extreme rudeness (to put it mildly) that she has seen here. She is actually a very sweet and gentle person (very much like Rumble himself) and just can not for the life of her understand what is to be gained by all this negativity.

I hope that helps to clear things up a little, Frack -- but don't be at all surprised if this letter only encourages them to attack harder still. I won't be. It is very clear to me that they would rather do this than to admit how wrong they all were in the first place.

But if you ever get the chance to visit Europe Frack be sure to give me a shout.

Be well...

[fracksfreakshow]

yep yep, frack meant no harm on it and just trying to spread a little frack joy to the world of p.net. just found it extemely funny gettting accused of not having someone visit you. truly didn't understand it and found it odd so had to jump on board. and when frack finds a real permanent place to live all are welcome to visit. just don't pet fracks ferrets they bite. and no uni'ing around anything expensive or doing anything with fire over the carpet. and no smoking frack allergic. that's all that can think of now, sure some more out there missed. yep yep frack attack.

[Prof Willie B]

chance, your stuff makes my girlfriend giggle, especially the photo. I like it when she laughs, it lightens my day.

[gerry nelson]

Hey Chance , you know the worst part of you posting so much on this site is having to look at that annoying photo that accompanies your posts

[Prof Willie B]

Sorry Gerry, must have just beaten you by a few seconds there. My girl just about wets herself every time she sees chance's signature image. I mean really?

[gerry nelson]

G'day Prof, I'm an old Melbourne boy myself. Grew up in a place called Montmorency, out Eltham way. Are you a local?

My girlfriend thinks the Chance photo is a huge turn on. But then, that crazy nymph thinks everything is. She does not believe its a bad thing, Martin, that my hand passes through her once in awhile. In fact, she finds it to be a turn on.

[Prof Willie B]

Gerry, I'm a girl for a start, not so old, but definitely Melbourne. And Taxi, my girl too, likes what can be done with a hand passing through.

[Mr.Taxi Trix]

I'm sorry. Martin ewen here, I forgot to log out and am using taxi's computer


All this dissinformation fair makes my head spin.
Its not about shoes, shoes were a classic frame up and you still havn't cottoned on. No-one ever thought you took the shoes for the simple reason that the shoes were never taken.
You annoyed Brady and all he would have to do was mention his shoes having gone missing and did you know anything about it and off you'd go. You have never been directly accused of anything, there were inferrences sure and your overreactions were a source of much pleasure. (except when you e-mailed Jim and threatened to sue him for defamation of character because it was his website) [Humour 1--Chance-Nil]
So let the shoes go chance, it just make you look silly.
What annoyed a lot of people a long time ago and was undeniably fact was that for your own reasons you invented a persona that you used to wind up someone who wasn't equiped to handle your cruel games and who, already mentally unstable, went into a frantic multiposting tailspin.
It was one of the reasons that P.net now has a validation system for postings.
This week its that same pattern again.
I'd like to find out from rumple whether the post in his name was written by him or not.
I don't buy the bus. I buy the post from Amsterdam from Rumple asking who the 'other' rumple might be.
You can use all the smoke and mirrors you like but its not in your hands, its in Rumples.
And chance, we have met, so why say we havn't. Why you persist in inventing circumstances to suit with no regard to reality has us all worried sick about your mental health.
You tried to crash my scheduled timeslot at the fremantle fest a few years back, admittedly you saw an opening for a show and took it and apoligised and quit when I arrived but we have met and it was a beautiful thing. (one of the first recorded Chance apoligies)

So just do what Rumple did here at my place and log out as Taxi and re-login as Martin. So simple even Rumple and I figured it out.

Shoes? Who ever mentioned shoes? Not me. I mentioned being called a liar and a thief.

Never caught on you say? Do you really think I am that stupid, Martin? Then read again... the part where I just said that I never really believed that anything had ever been taken in the first place. A fact I also mentioned to Jim in a private email once.

Notwithstanding the above, what is worse than accusing a person with something as damaging as theft, Martin? Answer: accusing a person of a theft that never took place at all.

Do you seriously expect me to sit back while you, the Prof, Peter Voice and Brady post anything you like about me? Sure I am going to respond! If you take some perverted satisfaction from the fact that you can push my button in this manner, then it shows your true colors, not mine.

The busking community we live in is small, volatile enough to begin with, and takes only a small spark to set the whole thing ablaze. This post, and the very subject we are speaking on are proof enough of this.

Do I care a whit if you like me or my show? Nope, trust me, not a bit. Do I care if you sit around and gossip about my personal habits or make me the butt of your jokes? No again. Not phased in the least -- trust me; skin's a tough a rhino hide. But am I to sit idly by while you write things that could be believed, taken at face value, and used as a basis on whether or not I am to be trusted, as a measure of my integrity? Really? Sit by and say nothing?

Hell, you have some nerve. You can't even sit still long enough to let Rumple and I write a funny letter together!

Here's a news flash! I HATE polluting these boards with the kind of trash we are slinging around right now. But until and unless you stop spewing out this trash it will sadly keep being repeated. Kind of like a Catch 22 scenario, with the ball in your court.

[quote]You have never been directly accused of anything...<hr></blockquote>

This is a lie, and a very bad one at that -- although a very easy statement for you to make since we both know most of these letters have been deleted. I was directly accused many times about this fiasco. For example, as recently as last September I was accused of this same theft in a thread that I had begun under "Announcements", a thread which Jim then deleted.

[quote]...(except when you e-mailed Jim and threatened to sue him for defamation of character because it was his website)...<hr></blockquote>

This is also not true. I happen to know Jim, admire him very much for all of the great work he has done with p.net, and have never, at any time or for any reason threatened him with anything, much less a defamation suit.

And since when does Jim need you to speak for him? (You do this a lot you know -- speaking for Rumple, speaking for Brady, speaking for Jim...) These are his web pages after all, and I assume he gets around to reading everything here at least as much as anyone else.

[quote]I'd like to find out from rumple whether the post in his name was written by him or not.<hr></blockquote>

And then what? Rush to the nearest computer and profusely apologize for yet again calling me a liar and an asshole for absolutely no reason? Right. I'm holding my breath for that one.

Jesus effing Christ Martin, what is it to you in the first place? Is Rumple your friend or not? From your letters here you seem to admire him a great deal. And he stayed in my flat for the first night he was in Vienna. So what, and what business is it of yours? If he is your friend, and if you really do admire him as much as you let on, then why in the world do you have so much that is so blatantly negative to say about the fact that Katharina and I showed him some kindness and hospitality his first trip here?

[quote]I don't buy the bus. I buy the post from Amsterdam from Rumple asking who the 'other' rumple might be. You can use all the smoke and mirrors you like but its not in your hands, its in Rumples.<hr></blockquote>

For your information, Martin, before Rumple left Vienna I specifically asked him to not add to this thread. You and Barry had so quickly added your nonsense and I wanted to see how much more you would put your foot (feet) in it. As it turns out, A LOT more.

But, there is another way. And I am betting that Jim has already tried it. I'll bet that he has already compared the ISP signatures of the original 4 postings here and found that they matched.

And what is all this nonsense about 'credibility' in the first place? Please show me even one time where you have been able to correct a serious mis-statement on my part? Just one...

[quote]And chance, we have met, so why say we havn't.<hr></blockquote>

If brushing past someone on the way to pitch qualifies for your definition of meeting, then yes we have "met" (for under 5 seconds).

[quote]You tried to crash my scheduled timeslot at the fremantle fest a few years back...<hr></blockquote>

No, actually it was my time slot, not yours, but shows that night at that spot were running a hour behind. It didn't occur to me because at the last pitch everything had been on time. All I knew was that the time was mine, the pitch was empty when I arrived, so I began to set up. It was then that you arrived to take your time, an hour later than it should have been but correct in the lineup. I was right about the times, you were right about the lineup, and the mix-up was an honest mistake on both our parts.

Amazing what a difference a little perspective makes.

Prof, if there is anything I like it is giggling lesbians. Glad I could help out. BTW, the photo you keep making reference to was taken by a newspaper editor for a festival promo article. But you know, it is but a mere shadow of the real thing so I wouldn't let your girlfriend get to close if I were you. I had a bounty on my, ahem, head when living in Key West for all of the unhappy lezzies I left dangling there. tongue.gif

[martin ewen]

Your powers of delusion are amazing chance.
That lesbians would be attracted to you is sidesplitting but made sad by the fact that some part of you truely believes.
If it was an attempt at humour then I commend your wisdom in sticking to magic proffessionaly.
When Rumple tells us all he was at your place I'll issue an apoligy but he'll have to explain why he posted from amsterdam questioning whether there was more than one rumple first.

Still unanswered is a post with your name but his signiture.
(not as you state- the inverse)

Still its all just a matter of time really one way or the other.
We've met, face to face, we didn't brush. Your reasons for poaching are your own and irrelivent as all I said to you was 'Look at the program' (I said it 3 times it was all I wanted to say)
It was 8-30, I was on at 8-30, all else is fluff.
We have met, you said we havn't, its not a matter of degrees, your wrong. (That would make you a liar at least technically)
Verification of schedule if you wish can be had from Alex marshal, the programmer and organiser
info@ghosts.com.au

As to Jim, he could clear it up himself if he wanted to but I suspect its about time for him to step in and remind us to act more proffessionally.

The shoes really got to you though, What shoes? you ask.
Your salvage attempts are truely awesome.

thanks for clearing that up, you may be a goose but to actively participate in a deception where you denied being at chances place when you in fact were strikes me as more than just a casual slip.
It was your input that started this ball rolling and I'm not going to roll over and play all contrite when you have been used to set up a deciet.

No Martin. That's not how quickly it fades away.

You called me (and by association, my girlfriend and Rumple) a liar.

You said that Rumple had never stayed as a guest in my home.

There never was any deception, merely your own personal opinion of me clouding your otherwise perfect objectivity.

You are a lifeless fuck-wit, badly in need of finding your own life so that you can abandon mine. Any more unwanted familiarity from you and Katharina might start wondering!

Hey guys can we calm down now.... this is beginning to sound like a Trevor rant.

Okay Martin, Rumple did say he was at Chance's and you did say you would apologize if he made this statement. I don't think you should hold it against Chance if Rumple didn't explain his nonsense (let's face it, if he tried this post would be 200 messages longer).

I don't know the history between you two nor do I know either one of you personally (yet). I do remember the shoe thing on the old board, it got really ugly. I don't understand why you have a problem with Chance, but right now you appear to be someone who has a credibility problem. You said you would apologize, now be a man and do so.

This will undoubtably get me flamed to the heavens, but the more I read your posts Martin, the less I want to meet you in person (and the less I think of you, as a person).

Can we play nice in the sandbox now???

[Mr.Taxi Trix]

As in "I apologise for holding Chance accountable for an obvious lie, because now I see there was a further ruse afoot, and I made the mistake of believing someone I thought more credible?" Blech. I would rather hear the insipid mental meanderings of a toll booth collector from the New Jersey Turnpike, going on at length about how his promotion to head collector has been held up by that supervisor jealous of his talents, as we linger in a drunk tank with bad lighting, metal bunks, and a hole in the floor for a bathroom, wondering if death will show mercy and come around.

Rumple,

Do not take any of what you read here personally. You have done absolutely nothing to be sorry for. Nothing! You just keep on being you no matter what, okay? Promise?

The matrix which makes up the foundation of this "discussion" between myself and Martin is quite old, quite complicated... and seemingly, quite hopeless.

It was wonderful to have you over (Katharina has only the nicest things to say about your visit), and it would be a pleasure to do it again some time.

Be well.
All the best...

[Lance Coombes]

Geeze guys! Give it a rest already! Whatever the past may be, it is clear that Chance and Rumple were just joking around and being silly! I am new to this site and already feel like leaving! 90% of the posts from today are all about this stupid issue. And personal insults about photos and such just take away from anybody's credibility. They sound like lame-ass insults hurled from a drunken heckler. Let's ALL give it a rest.

[Chance]

Just as I thought from the very start: In like a hurricane and out like a cough, eh Martin? By now you have this down to a science. Just scream loud enough and throw as much mud as possible in the shortest time and pray that enough of it sticks to the intended target. In magic we call this 'misdirection'. But you forget with whom you practice, and I almost never get caught looking to the wrong hand.

Your last letters sounded so absolutely pathetic that I almost felt a twinge of sympathy for you. Almost.

I was prevented by the fact that I am sitting here in my home. The very same place where Rumple was my guest. And close by is my lovely Katharina. All of which were attacked and polluted by your perverted attacks of recent days.

Do not expect me to let you get the final word in this. It won't happen. You wouldn't dare to behave like this towards my family of myself in person and walk away unscathed, so what makes you think it will happen here?

So your final whimper was that you were "set up". How wonderful for you, that your fantasies include me and my family. You could indeed live in a fantasy world of far less interesting characters. To think that Rumple and I were sitting here in my flat writing innocent funny letters to ourselves, for our own personal sense of fun and self-gratification, never mentioning your name (nor the name of anyone else)... and yet, in your twisted world this was interpreted as a personal invitation to become so involved, and eventually, so disenchanted.

After cutting through all of your shit here, the bottom line is that every claim you have made against me here has been proven a lie.

...Rumple was indeed in my home as a guest.
...Rumple was indeed sitting on my floor playing his guitar.
...Rumple was indeed writing a two-part letter with me, and after switched to his own signature.
...Rumple was indeed on a bus to Amsterdam just when I said he was.
...At no time did I pretend to be Rumple; all letters clearly contained my own name and signature -- except for the first one where it was indicated that he was coming to write something.
...And I will not even attempt to condense the parts regarding your lies and insults of the past 3 years.

Again I am caught off-guard by how surreal all of this seems. I just can not understand why doing a good turn to Rumple would release such agressive behavior from you. From anyone for that matter. For me to have to waste even one sentence on such a thing is truly incomprehensible.

But, as I have said, I will not idly stand by while you or anyone else unjustly attacks -- as you have called it -- my credibility. If you find some kind of sick twisted gratification in the fact that you can get me to respond to your insults and lies, it only shows what lies deep within your heart and soul, not mine.

You have been weighed and found wanting.

Oh really chance, for goodness sake, you were caught out making false postings repeatedly on the old boards and you proudly posted your abusive response to an aspiring student who wrote to people here for advise. Your style is also reflected in your attitude on the pitch. You spout pious crap out one end and deceive us at the other.

If you are so powerful and self contained, why do you bother to f**k around with us.

Surely it's enough running from the "Florida Lesbians".

BTW Your memory is either pathetic or selective because we also have met in passing, Jody Wrights office in Christchurch, I was busy and ignored you.

[Chance]

Will wonders ever cease? The circle is now complete -- Martin, Prof and Peter Voice all together in a single thread. And all three showing such repose and self control. Glad to have you aboard, Peter. I was actually wondering what took you so long. Must have been sick or otherwise indisposed and away from the keyboard. We are all just one big happy family aren't we? I am sure Jim is so proud of us.

What exactly is a false posting on internet bulletin boards, Peter? One where I say "Suerte" (the Spanish version of my name) instead of "Chance"? This is suppossed to be a bad thing? If so, then please tell your alter ego Professor Willie B. Shaffted it's time for a name change.

I am so busy laughing right now I can hardly type! So if I "meet" another human being that has their back turned to me it somehow qualifies as a "meeting"?! This is the best you can do? Why bother even opening your mouth, Peter? Oh my God, there are tears coming out of my eyes right now from laughing so hard....

boys, boys - you're all pretty... (especially rumple - who i never take the time to talk to - tho' he's one of the few on this forum who's posts actually make me laugh.)

don't make us turn this p.net around!

[Peter Voice]

Suerte was only one of 4 false names you used when making outrageous libellous postings about Trevor Rooney. By your own admission you also put up false posts posing as a female performer looking for travelling companions in some bizarre attempt at entrapment aimed at other performers. So tell us how many different names have you really used here, chance? (see, I can be multi-lingual too, that means chance in french)
Your activities considerable damaged the credibility and reliability of the old boards.

[Jim]

OK, I finally got around to reading performers.net. I've been really busy the last couple of days performing and working on my promo. I'm a professional entertainer, you know. I wish I had as much free time as all of you guys...

Could one of you (Peter, Chance, Martin and Prof.) PLEASE just open a new topic called "The Last Word," say your peace and get the f--- over it? Then I'll just close the topic and the next time you each feel like sparring you can just post a link to that thread. It will surely save on typing and server space. You all argue about the same crap over and over again anyway. It must be exhausting.

[Mark Wessels]

Geez

don't you guys work? Street performing must not be such a time commitment I hardly have time to read all you write. Also, isn't suerte luck? I though chance was ocasion or something. I only speak highschool spanish so sorry if i'm wrong. ah well. here jim is god, and god has spoken and he said shut up.

hey fire girl does this include frack? and if so can frack have his with tongue? yep yep frack attack

[Prof Willie B]

Aaawwwwww, come on guys, this is the Baroque Rumble, not Rumple, thread and now no-one wants to rumble. You mean to tell me I've hired all the flute, lute and recorder players for nothing. What am I supposed to tell the guys in their 15th century Italian soldier suits, let alone the guy who trucked in his ballista. Shit, I even bought a Boccelli chair to sit on at my keyboard.

On another note, there can be little doubt that chance has left a trail of disappointed lesbians behind him. They were, of course. hetro when they met him. Ce la vie.

[Doctor Eric]

It's Cest prof...

[Prof Willie B]

Actually, it's "C'est" but I stand corrected. It's just all this f**king recorder music that's getting to me.

[firegirl]

...oh, frack... what are we going to do with you?

(don't answer that.)

~firegirl

[Prof Willie B]

I must admit, I'm pretty interested in the tongue thing myself, but that's another conversation line. Maybe Frack should follow chance around, sounds to me he might turn all those girls back again.

[firegirl]

no kidding... i mean - have you seen his picture? (chance, not frack... tho' who knows about frack... he seems slight off kilter himself...) yikes. i hope that he's telling the truth that it's a bad picture - or, i feel bad for the translucent kathrina...

*evil giggle*

(i'll just sit back now and wait for chance to flip his lid over some light teasing... 5, 4, 3, 2, 1...)

[Chance]

One of my aunts had a pack of these half crazed Chiuauas(sp?). They would hide behind the sofa and other pieces of furniture and just yap, yap, yap away like there was no tomorrow. I don't ever remember seeing one, but they sure made a hell of a racket.

If that weren't enough, if you dared get too close to the thing it was they were hiding behind they would jump out and take a bite at your heel. Not to mention the fact that they had a really nasty habit of shitting back there too. Man, Chiuaua shit, what a smell!

I would liken the postings of Peter Voice, the Prof and Martin to these animals -- but I'd hate to insult the dogs like that.

[Rumpelstiltskin]

[Chance]

You know Rumple, in a way you are right. If you had stayed at another place this would not have come out... at least not quite this way, with your direct involvement. But it has happened before, and it may even happen again.

Just remember this one thing: It is not about you! You are a completely innocent bystander and have not done anything wrong.

And my only "crime" was to refuse to kiss Brady's ass while in New Zealand, and the resulting chaos that you see here is what happens when Brady and 3 of his friends decide to try to ruin my life by spreading as much slander, and insults, and lies, as possible.

They did it then, they are still doing it as we speak, and only God knows when they will decide that enough is enough.

And as for you my friend, we are still picking the fleas off the sofa!!! Sod off and take a shower, ya twisty salted gherkin of a jester you! <img src="graemlins/jester.gif" border="0" alt="[jester]" />

[Triona]

Okay Chance, just let the friggin thing die already!!!!!! As long as you keep bring stuff up and getting in their face, they keep coming back for more (sort of like Trevor). You're never going to change Martin, Peter and the others minds, so all this is acomplishing is wasted server space and a lot of annoyed P-net users who don't give a rat's ass about your problems with Martin and the rest (or the shoes for that matter).

It ain't worth it...

Frack,

It seems firegirl has a special thing only for guys who show deft skill at juggling hot sarcasam. Every girl has her standards, and while juggling hot sarcasam is not uncommon, it is a skill if not developed early, becomes next to impossible to learn later in life.

But weep not, my notched, marked, trap handed, picked punk lugging, freakish pal.

For every gambler there is a bet, that says if there is a Frack, so must be Frackette.

Keep lookin' she is out there somewhere and is probably having a small barbell installed somewhere on her person as we speak.

Best,

Dan-

yep yep, thanks danny for the kind words for frack. frack will just add firegirls name to the unbelievably long list (and growing more everyday) of girls who have denied frack. maybe it eating the bugs? could it be that chomping down on bugs scares them away? going up and talking to a girl with a crickett antenna between fracks teeth? but oh well by now firegirl has probably already changed her mind aboot frack and is willing to accept him. yep yep frack attack

...it's not hard to deny someone you've never met... (and, no - that does not mean you can come to new orleans to learn the nipple transfer...)

btw - i happen to have a very significant other (who isn't a 'hot sarcastic juggler' - incidentally - he's a 'hot sarcastic writer...')

i'm just afraid that if i gave into my overwhelming desire for a 'frackattack' that he'd get jealous and mutilate you ('cause you know that all writers are insane... sarcastic, a fast typist and insane... for example - he killed the 'hot, irish bartender' just for serving me a rum & coke... killed him poeticaly... granted, it was in hakkiu form... none the less... it was a short but DEADLY poem, man!)

and - if anything were to happen to you i just couldn't live with myself...

as much as it kills me to live without you... my sweet tattooed/pierced/bug eating freak... it is better this way.

excuse me boys, i must now go sit in a darkened room and pine for frack...

CRAP!

FRACK RUN! Those writer guys are wacky.

They say weird stuff like, "She was blonde, the kind of blonde that could make a Bishop put his foot through a stained glass window."

What the hell does that mean? I think it's some kind of simile code those guys got. And to top it off this guy clipped another guy with Haiku? AND he juggles hot sarcasam?

He sounds like the Psycho that used to read poetry in front of Central Grocery at three A.M. back in the early 90's. That guy was so crazy he made me drop my ben..beg..bengays..er..my little donuts with no holes.

Man Frack, I'd forget the whole thing if I were you and let her pine away like a schoolgirl left home on prom nite. CRAP! Now I'm doing it. I gotta get out of here....
