Sinister: there is nothing of interest in this message

[Hopkins, Tim]

They say that good things come in threes, and over the past few days I've
found myself with the urge to be irritatingly pedantic on the list. Three
times. So that must be good, yes? No offence to Cory or Chris, and only mild
offence to Tag.

I have to say that I have had a fair amount of success with tapes bought
from shops, and am not sure that home made ones would be any better. Not
that I'm maligning your craftspersonship, you understand. I'd like to see a
home-made tape though. I'm imagining it made of plywood, and decorated
beautifully.

And you're asking us to believe that you do?


Furthermore, Chris, while apparently referring to the A-Team, wrote:

Sorry, Chris, but you've been confusing 'The A-Team' with 'Little House On
The Prairie' there, old son. I understand. It's an easy mistake to make.
Especially in the title sequence when the little girl tries to escape from
her tormentors by impersonating an aeroplane, but gets cut down and sinks
beneath the waves of grain...it's so poignant...

See? Nothing of interest. Don't say I didn't warn you.
