Sinister: rude stuff

Well it's not really.  Chris Leonard just asked me to send something
"funny" to the list, which as you know is against all my principles,
so when I refused he's now sending me smutty and lewd innuendoes
about list members.  He's a bad boy and I bet he's wearing his saucy
underpants at work today.

In the meantime, can I be a total bore and ask people to remember
again that replies to the digest won't go back to the list but to
me?  And then they sit in my mailbox for ages, I grumble to Splat
"why doesn't anyone care, Splat?", she mutters "pish" and eventually
inspite of my threats to just delete them, I send them on, with a
grumpy look on my face, and accuse myself of being a right old sod.
By which time the original poster has sent them again and I look like
Arthur Mullard.


Also - there's a right old tigermilky knees-up going on on
rec.music.marketplace.vinyl at the moment.  Here's a quick sample for
fun, with some surprising comments about the old scratchy classic:

I'm basing my thoughts on the worth of this record by the fact that I
just picked up TWO copies of it in Europe last month--one copy for 46
pounds--a mint copy--, (under a hundred bucks) one for 32 pounds--in
very good condition--(about 50 bucks).  As it goes when shopping for
hard to find music the elements of luck and timing mean almost
everything.  A minute later or a day sooner and I may not have found
them.  But the point is, without trying very hard I found 2 copies for
2 of my customers--which I in turn sold for ZERO profit by the way--I
take vacations all the time where I am more than happy to shop for out
of print items for my customers,  wanting nothing in return but the
money I paid for a particular item.  Making someone else happy with
music makes me feel good.  MUSIC is what this is all about isn't it???


That's it - go and have a look but please don't bring the growlings
that are appearing on that newsgroup here: as you know, we all like
dandelions, skipping ropes and fluffy puppies here.
