HI Bob do you still have the original that you can post for us -- Richard In general the good luck follows the daring, those who are more risk averse tend not to get the same lucky breaks. Peter McLelland s.m.n 2 February 2005 I had to Google it myself. I crank out way too much BS to keep it all! http://groups-beta.google.com/group/...b226265654 6b BTW, my 'complaint" post today is not particularly serious either. Bob |

cc The "Round Engines" rant has been around since June of 2002. It has been somewhat modified over this period. The excellent line about kissing the FE's girl was added. In a clearly unfortunate edit/typo, "ladylike poot" became "ladylike poof", which is not at all the same thing. Also, several lines in the original that made it even more obvious that this was a nonserious post were deleted. And of course, in the piratical world of newsgroups, the name of the original author was quickly deleted as the post was forwarded all over the net. Now THAT ****es me off a bit! Bob McKellar I agree entirely. This was one of those posts that people call 'gems' and should not (on pain of death (or equivalent)) be modified...I especially agree that it was quite unfortunate that that classy line about the 'Ladylike poot' was desecrated. I laughed (on and off) about that one for days...I'd start shaking with mirth in bed at night and my wife'd say "the 'ladylike poot' again?'...hilarious... You 'should' feel cheated when the author line is deleted from a gem of that stature... -- -Gord.

Yea - that would be appreciated. I'm planning a vacation from work
around that time but haven't settled on details. Maybe some surf fishing in Florida might fit in well with the P'cola event. I don't golf - but I could certainly drink beer.

Bill -
Is there a web site devoted to this get together (or will there be)? I'm still in touch with several people from my S-2 era.
