Gary, I didn't think you would give up without a fight. I figured you would
fire up that electronic thesaurous and submit some whitty Verses of Schloss.
Oh, how can we go on? With Gary passing on his prosabilities it just won't
be the same anymore. Shall we terminate the list now? Does Jack Kevorkian
(Jack-the-dripper) make internet calls?
I know! We need to do an INTERVENTION! That's it! Ok, everybody, this is
how it will work: Next time Gary walks into the room (list) we lock the
door and shower him with the tough love needed to break this slide into
oblivian that he is on. He needs to realize that we love him and then get
him into rehab. I understand that the Betty Ford Clinic now has a recovery
program for this disease (prose challenged).
Please, everybody, Gary is in desparate trouble. Next thing you know he
will be writing messages in all lower case, not using punctuation and worse
of all speaking in abreviations. Before we know it poor Gary will become a
streetperson on USENET. Listen everyone, we can't allow one of our own to
go down this path. If we don't do something now we will soon see him trying
to get handouts from alt.begging.food.
