Hi there

A post from this board by Zuko features prominently in the most recent Fraywatch column

<link>

Yeah well, real men don't talk about the one who got away. Zuko is most likely one of those sensitive types who goes to the bathroom in the middle of the night, puts his foot in the toilet and pees down his leg to keep from waking his wife.

I had a little blond haired woman too once...once. I....I...don...don't cry a...a...about it, th...tho...I...I...aw hell, I hope she married a wino and got fat.

Fuck, if we didn't talk about the ones that got away, we would lose a large portion of the world's best writing, most of the world's songs......

....and think of the economic losses to the breweries, distilleries, wineries of the world.

The One That Got Away

Oh yeah, sounds like you finally got that nocturnal urination routine down solid.

Good Point

LOST LOVE

Now and then,

On rainy days

and starless nights,

When life weighs heavy

on the soul.

Beneath facades

where the spirit lies,

Lost in the memory

of your eyes,

And your smile,

I'm reminded once again.

what was and is,

And what might have been.

[c 1994 Jack Dallas 8-13-94]

You've gotta keep an eye on Zuko.
by DragonTat2

He posts like that all the dang time.

Thanks for checking, and Checking, the board now and again. Which leads to the question: Do you delete spammish type, drunken mid-night posts any more? Nothing in particular today; just a wonderment.

Haven't kept up but along with Michael Ryerson, I consider Zuko right up there as one of the top two writers I have read here. Both can take your breath away and if they are not doing it professionally, they should be.

My hope has always been that they know just how good they are and run with it.

Bullshit, no matter how well crafted, is still bullshit. No one questions Zuko's writing ability. He is one of the better crafters of bullshit on this board. His brand of Bullshit is what passes for quality here.

The current front page give us a bird's eye view of exactly what this forum is all about. Zuko crafts an excellent piece of left wing, idealogical bullshit and receives a checkmark and accolades for his effort.

It s interesting to me that, along with Zuko's bullshit, there is an equally well crafted pile of bullshit toutng the glories of communism, a political system which has enslaved and murdered millions of helpless people around the world. This post also received a checkmark.

This well crafted pile of bullshit was written by a well known poster, who regularly attacks the women posters, and posts what can only be viewed, by responsible people, as misogynistic pornography.

The lines are well defined here, we all know where we stand, and that is what draws me. If I thought for one minute that I had even the slightest chance of receiving a positive review from the current cadre of editors, I would leave and never come back.

Jack

Ps: You did also give Justoffal a checkmark for his fine post, so thanks for that.

moira, in the name of heaven, give jack a checkmark! please!

I debated some time as to whether one should even reply to this.

"His brand of Bullshit is what passes for quality here."

If you have issues with the criteria of the editors, please address them directly. I do not, beyond what is appropriate and casual, attack you personally.

I see the that you've used the word bullshit four times in the first paragraph and can't help but infer that you are trying to make a point.

You have accused me of writing bullshit. I do not. I write from my own perspective as you do; and I don't deserve that kind of insult.

Jack's definition of bullshit
by ducadmo

is anything to the left of center. He doesn't mean any offense, per se. Anything to the left of Sean Hannity but still right of center is simply 'horsepuckey'. Anything to the right of Rush Limbo is called 'gospel'. There are no other words in his vocabulary to make these distinctions.

It took me a little while to figure it all out, but I'm fairly certain about this.

Go fuck yourself, Bertrand

If the situation is as you've described, I'm surprised Mr Dallas hasn't repled with sentiments of the same.
