Well, I never thought I'd spot Brett/Helen while on vacation, but I did. I
have photographic proof that they are one in the same person, something we
all *know*.

Nice shoes.

No WAY! That was "Rita" in her Evening Wardrobe. You didn't see the Nikon in
'her' belly-pack?

I admit, this image does invoke the name "Rita," but I doubt she could ever
display a sense of style like Bretelen does here. Rita polluted her Canon
bodies with inferior glass. Clearly, she can't accessorize like the heshe in
this shot.

Man, ya get all kinds on South Beach...

Can't be me.

I have better legs.
I don't wear lifts.
Ain't no bald spots on my hairy pate.
Most importantly, I would NEVER wear a fanny pack!

You're about as funny as a malignant tumor.  And from the way things
have been going for me today, and the way I'm feeling right now,
that's par for the course.

Bad choice of words.  What I meant is I've been kicked while I was
down, your "joke" was only something that added no positive contrast
to my situation and the way I feel.

Helen, sometimes a joke is just a joke. Maybe you'd feel better if you'd
lighten up a little. I don't know you, I don't know your situation, I know
*nothing* about you. Under those circumstances, I didn't think it was
possible to insult you. I just don't know you well enough.

"Helen, sometimes a joke is just a joke."

Fair enough.  I love a good joke.  I'm downright moved by someone's
sparkling wit and humor.
Believe me when I say that I can take it better than I could dish it
out.  But knowing the grief that Bret and I are given over stupid
assumptions that we are one in the same person, I don't think you can
blame me for taking it seriously.

I'd rather just forget about the whole thing.

You're kidding. That's your life crisis? The fact that a few people tease
you via this NG? Holy sh.t, you must have the thinnest skin on the planet.
If in fact you are not Bret's sock puppet (I'm really not sure) then you
need to leave usenet. I thought you may have had some real problems, but
this?

Maybe if you didn't gush so much every time Bret posted a snapshot it
wouldn't be so bad. Publicly declaring each and every one of his snapshots
as a modern day equivilant to the Mona Lisa is, well, incredibly
embarassing. Behave like that, and you will catch some teasing. Deal with
it.

Man, I'd hate to be around you if you ever had a *real* problem.

Your assumptions of my problems is nowhere near the intensity of my
crisis.  I'm not going into detail on usenet, as I learned my lesson
the hard way about saying personal things on a newsgroup or forum.
All I will say is my brother is dying very soon, and I have some very
critical personal problems that I guarantee justifies my feelings
right now.   So before you make a "fly-by-night" judgement or
assessment of my problems, ask first.  But I would prefer if you just
keep your attitude of "who gives a f.ck" to yourself.

I assumed nothing. You said that your problem was the fact that people tease
you, and made no mention of any serious family problems. Even now, I find it
hard to believe you're not simply trolling, and will up the intensity of
your "crises" every time I reply.

Sorry, but I believe next to nothing I read on usenet.

" I find it hard to believe you're not simply trolling, and will up

I wish I were just trolling.
I agree with you that this will be my last post in this matter.

Sorry to butt in...

She's told you she's taken it seriously, not as a joke, and she's
asked for you to just forget the whole thing.  No means no.  Take
the hint.

No need to push her further and aggravate the issue.  We don't
know what she might be going through in her personal life, and we
don't need to.  Just respect her request.

I've posted my last reply to her. It was a simple joke, for God's sakes. Are
we all that thin skinned?

People like Jufi don't understand hints. Got a 2x4 somewhere? That might
get his undivided attention, but I doubt it. Scum is scum is scum.

Sorry, we're not all as well attuned to total strangers emotions as you. But
calling me scum? Huh? That's a step up?
