I see no insult here. The River Denial is an old and venerable
institution on this list and at conventions they wear red shirts. If
they say you have to get your own river and that your group can't wear
red shirts that's their business.

Nina,
Since I scolded Lance for obliquely calling someone insane where do I
draw the line with this? Lance has some very -unique- opinions but I
wouldn't yet characterize him as insane. So let's go a little easier
on the insanity judgements.
Thank you,

Subject: Highlander related (was Re: OT)
Greetings All,
(Fairy Killer? I like Fairies.)
I'm back at JFK International Airport working on another project. The
Engineer I'm working with is a big fan of the HIGHLANDER. He loves Gina's
and TZ's string: on the "Essences of Highlander"
Big sweaty guy with a sword.
Now, now. . . . This is NOT what you think.
(BTW TZ means Touchdown Zone in Airport jargon. TarryN Zank is cool too, as
well Gina and all other fans of HIGHLANDER.)

ROTFLMAO!! What, does it linger forever? Come in a tartan bottle? Comes with
a warning label: be careful with the cap, if you remove it, it will be gone
forever.

Sounds like part of the plot line for the book Misery by Steven King

I'm a little confused.
Talk about *anything*? Or talk about anything related to Highlander?

enough times to know that it takes a certain kind of population for

That made me a little upset too. Adrian Paul adores woman. Wendy, even if you go for Christopher Lambert, you shouldn't make such bad comments like that. I love them both and wish to work with them one day or at least meet them.

Does Debbie allow these types of insults on the list?
Ah but this just proves you don't know *this* list's culture. The
aforementioned post was not so much an insult as part of the classic humor to
be gleaned there -- for those with a sense of humor and more than a thin
skin. *vbeg*

Don't be ridiculous. Wendy doesn't "go for" CL, for the excellent reason
that she knows AP is _very_ possessive & jealous about him. Or maybe AP is
that way about Wendy--I forget.
I'm curious--could Wendy make a "bad comment" like that on your new "talk
about anything" list?

Not w/ TV or the movies. Nothing will ever change the fact we all saw CL
beheaded up on the big screen; soon, it'll be released on video &
DVD--thousands (millions?) of final Connor deaths played over & over & over
world-wide. We all remember Zeist, despite TPTB's pathetic efforts to
distance the franchise from that. Do you really want Connor & Chris to
become a similar laughingstock? Move on.
