That's a terrible disappointment. The special vise grips that the
nurses ordered are due in first thing Monday morning. None of the
hardware stores had the right size in stock.

How big? Well, remember that ad that Blinky posted about the 36" pizza?
'Nuff said.

Ever seen a judge rake somebody over the coals for abuse of the justice
system? My wife has. It was not a pretty picture for the one who got
raked. My wife enjoyed it, though. She, along with another dozen or so
people, some of whom had nothing to do with the matter, were sued.

"You want anchovies on that three-footer? Sure. That'll be $14 extra."

Thanks for your detailed explanation. I guess I didn't know a lot of
the background. I don't subscribe to either abf or afb, and don't plan
to. My idea of BBQ is hot dogs on the grill (my son has a smoker, does
that count?).

You are an adult, and will make your own choices. I respect that.
Others on the group will make choices about what they want to read.
Andy has already gotten several public plonks. Since most people don't
post about their plonks, there probably were many more. You have
contributed many good posts here before. I hope to see more.

I am sorry to hear that they had to go through that - being sued and
having it get to the actual courtroom stage is aggravating and expensive.
But I am glad to see that His/Her Honor gave the appropriate smackdown.

Andy's not helping himself any with this by continuing to post abusive
stuff on Usenet. If his attorney is minimally competent, said attorney
would likely advise Andy to stay off the usernetz for the duration and
certainly NOT ENGAGE and NOT TALK ABOUT IT. (I've known some people who
were served in Usenet-related kooksoots.)

ObFood: Dinner tonight - California Club type sandwich: roast chicken
breast slices, bacon, avocado, and red bell (I ate all the tomatoes
yesterday) on sourdough. Pretty tasty!

That's OK, you paid for it (you the taxpayer). My wife is an elected
official.

So what? Her house of cards may fold, eventually. Why did you bring the Mrs.
into the picture? Fidiot!
