In addition, you'll notice that art appreciation is but one part of a

television, radio, traffic, and signs. I read on your site that you
listen to music 12 hrs a day. I've found that time alone with one's
thoughts can be just as enlightening as quality sensory input. My goal
is simply to reduce the noise and improve the quality of the signal.


I can't decide whether you are a bore or a boor.


And why does that conundrum raise its ugly head in your fevered brain,
Art?



If you get excited by Bruce's self indulgent
ramblings, so be it.

Andre,

I'll genuflect your way because I know you were a childhood genius, a war
hero, an award-winning radio announcer, a commander general of SWAPO, a
Nobel Laureate, Nelson Mandela's secret right-hand man, the winner of two
Pulitzers, designer extraordinaire of audio equipment, autos, and the Lear
Jet, Knighted by the Queen herself, etc. etc.

I know in your self-absorbed narcissistic reverie it might never occur to
you that there are forums that are geared to your brilliant and esoteric
opinions on DDT, the war in Iraq, Bohemians, etc. ad nauseam.

Rec.audio.tubes ain't one of them.

Your friend,

Jon

I have my own fartcatcher. It has been years since I last contributed
to a thread without the crooked garage trader and Atlanta rent-boy Jon
Yaeger, also know to the Atland PD as John and Jono, chiming in with
some irrelevant attack.

Hey, Bruce, when your opinions attract the reflex obliquy of the
slimier morons on the net, like Jon-John-Jono Yeager, you'll know you
have arrived, perhaps even with an opinion of your own rather than the
predigested designer brands of political correctness as believed by the
lowest common denominators that you call proles.

Yes, because calling someone a "garage trader" or "rent-boy" is
completely different from calling them a proletariat.

The word is "proletarian", and it should be "him" rather than "them". As you
proceed with tuning up your tastes for material goods, you might consider
polishing your composition skills a tad.

Thanks, officer.

BTW, since "someone" doesn't necessarily refer to anyone in particular,
"them" is considered an acceptable singular pronoun replacing "he or

I think we're having a misunderstanding about numbers here, Bruce. Jon
Yaeger is only one queer, also known as John and Jono, but still only
one queer, singular, and therefore a proletarian if only in the sense
that a proletarian is a workingman and Jono the rentboy is surely a
hardworking asshole.

In general, one proletarian plus another proletarian plus several more
proletarians make up a proletariat, a mob by any other name.

Proletariat is a technical word in communism, now not used in any
non-pejorative sense by anyone not on the fascist left, and rarely by
them. It is used by everyone else only as a sneer, as you did.

I don't even know that there are any proletarians today. It must be a
quarter-century since Frank Chappell, leader of Electrician's Union in
England, said, "How can I go to my members and say, Brother, let me
raise you out of your misery, when all they want to talk about is
whether it is safe to leave the speedboat at the marina near the
holiday home in Marbella." (That's in Spain and you should check the
pronunciation before you make a fool of yourself.)

I think the other rent-boys on the river might ostracize Jono if they
think he is proletarian; well, maybe not, if he is rough trade (I don't
really know; he attached himself to me like a lost puppy; I ask no
questions for fear of what the answers might be).

Don't worry, it's just an "obliiquy" from our "professional writer".

Well, not "our" (referring to RAO).

Funny how the chickens come home to roost (and yes, I've had MY share
of chickens roosting on MY head chuckle).

Actually it was pretty stupid. The only thing wrong with your post was
that it was so honest I thought it was a put-on. That's because one
just doesn't expect honesty on RAO. Ignore the knockers. Go on as
you're going--straight on till morning. ;-)


Thanks. Yes, I have better things to do than troll flamebait, which is
why I seldom post here

One more thought, Bruce.
Move to one of the world-class cities.
No man is an island. You aspire to higher things, but I get the impression
that the cost to you is increased isolation.
You probably subscribe to existentialism. According to this doctrine, a man
is not fully made until he's dead.

Fartcatcher defines a useless jerk on a newsgroup who contributes
nothng but follows around a more useful member of the internet
community to make a useless comment on every post from the useful
member.

Leave your disgusting sex-work off the net, Yaeger. Take your crooked
garage trading away to wherever Vince the Nodding Dog went when I ran
him out.
