Peter Clinch is an English jackass who fouls up this newsgroup every time he
posts to it. He is your typically opinionated Englishman (although living in
Scotland) who thinks he knows more than he does. His god damn signature
tells you everything you will ever have to know about him.

What is it about this jackass that I do not like? Well, to begin with it is
his signature which just infuriates me every time I see it. How do you get
to be such a god damn freaking asshole? Yea, that is the question!

But other than his signature is the single hobby horse he rides for all
eternity. He thinks helmets are for the birds and he never tires of telling
you that they do no good whatsoever. Fuck him and his nonsense! You listen
to this fool at your peril.

Don't you just hate anyone who puts on pretenses? Look at his signature and
tell me that there is no pretense there. God, I simply hate assholes like
him.

I urge one and all to adopt a humble and modest signature like mine.

It is OK to like me. After all, I am infinitely lovable.

The fact is that Mr. McNamara would not continue to engage me if he did not
find me interesting and yes likable. But I find him interesting and likable
too. All he ever needed was someone to give him a bit of insight into his
posting errors. As a result of my ministrations I simply can't imagine him
any more making all those mistakes with Ed Gin and Tom Sherman.

If and when Ed Gin should ever return to this forum I would expect Mr.
McNamara to treat him with the contempt he so richly deserves and not to
beat about the bush like he used to. As a result of listening to me he will
know how to kick ass when ass needs to be kicked. I have weaned him away
from being a simpleton to being an intellectual.

Your point is well taken. I agree, so you'll get no argument from me
on that account. The obnoxious Ed Dolan is possessed by a twisted
sense of self-importance. Bewitched by delusion, he is absorbed in
his own wayward drama. One thing can always be expected from him ...
dogmatic, "authoritarian" ignorance. He mistakenly believes all that
he thinks and erroneously expects the readership to share in his
delusion and abide by his prescriptive prattle. Ed Dolan fails to
recognize that his opinions matter not simply because he matters not!

I am overwhelmed by my own Greatness! Of course, all is relative. The
denizens of this newsgroup are such midgets, twerps and dwarfs that I stand

I'll take that BUT as a concession from Mr. Dolan. How Ed's signature
has anything even remotely to do with this newsgroup is beyond me.
Ed's signature has absolutely nothing to do with this newsgroup and
stating that it does in no way, shape or form changes that
reality.

Now here's a concept for you Ed. Is there not a newsgroup where
recumbent cyclists can come together and discuss recumbent issues?
Well there was until you showed up and decided it was a venue for you
own personal non-recumbent related platform. Never make the mistake
of using the word inoffensive and any reference to yourself in the
same sentence.

Ed is assuming that Peter is crowing. "Saint Edward the Great" should
not be perceived as crowing ... PLEASE ? ! ? ! ? ! ? Peter ... you
there? How about telling this dunderhead what IT means and give him a
brief description of what your position entails. Then perhaps then Ed

The purpose of my signature is to tell everyone HOW GREAT I AM! Most others
on these freaking newsgroups are just too stupid to ever come to that
conclusion on their own.

I am only on a very few threads. Does not a newsgroup pose the possibility
of an infinite number of threads? Hey, if others want to discuss the nuts
and bolts of recumbency, I will not interfere as I have no interest in that
subject.

Boasters must be brought down even if we don't understand what they are
boasting about. I urge others to acquire a humble and modest signature like
mine.

That won't do any good unless and until he stops posting his occupation on
this newsgroup. It is one thing for bike shop owners or those somehow
connected with bicycles to post their occupation here, but all others should
forget about it.

He won't stop crowing, because the point is to be obnoxious and provoke
a reaction (like the one you just supplied him). If not my signature,
he'd be obnoxious some other way to provoke a reaction. There isn't any
point in highlighting holes in his logic, because he's not trying to be
logical. His drive appears to be just to provoke people.

It is because he goes out of his way to be obnoxious that he isn't worth
the time of day: insert into Bozo Bin.

> You mean you actually have a strength???

He's very good at being an obnoxious waste of space. And reacting to
that encourages him to continue. This isn't actually that hard to see.

See how Peter Clinch of Dundee, Scotland does not like your inclusion of my
rants in your messages? But don't worry about him; he is toothless. In
short, keep up the good work!

There is always some point to my begin obnoxious. Invariably, it is because
I am dealing with an idiot like Peter Clinch of Dundee, Scotland. But he no
doubt thinks he is an OK person, even if he is Medical Physics IT Officer.

I don't believe I have ever read a single message of his that was anything
but a complete waste of my time. I think he must be retarded to be so bland.
He should try to be more obnoxious himself if he wants to be read by anyone.

But his signature and his occupation have nothing to do with this particular
newsgroup whereas my signature has everything to do with this particular
newsgroup.

Is there not a newsgroup somewhere in the universe where Medical Physics IT
Officers can come together and discuss their idiotic concerns among
themselves without Peter Clinch of Dundee, Scotland bothering us inoffensive
recumbent cyclists with his confounded signature?

Well, he no doubt thinks being a Medical Physics IT Officer is something to
crow about, but I think it is most likely something to be ashamed of. How do
you get to be so screwed up about things I wonder? To this very day I have
no idea what the hell a Medical Physics IT Officer is all about. He refuses
to tell me - and damned if I will ever look it up.

Jimmy,

Please don't insult librarians by considering that Ed is a "retired
librarian." Ed merely obtained a degree in Library Science (or
whatever) and supposedly tried being a librarian in NYC. My guess is
that he was the laughing stock of whatever library was foolish enough
to hire him and was sent packing with his tale between his ingnorant,
arrogant legs to mommy and daddy in Worthington. Can you imagine the
ridicule he had to endure? I'd hate to think that because of my
inability to work and get along with others that I had to live my
remaining life through books. How lonely and delusional!

Enjoy,

Perry B

Please ... we college librarians are not accustomed to being criticized by
high school teachers. After all, if you had any self-respect you would have
at least advanced to junior college teaching. But you chose to limit
yourself to pupils instead of students.

I only stayed in libraries long enough to know what a dead end they are for
a genius such as myself. I will admit I spent any awful lot of years doing
nothing but reading books. But I also got out a bit in my 30's and saw
something of the country. In fact, for 10 solid years I did absolutely
nothing at all except travel about the country for 9 months out of the year.
There is just no place in America that I have not been to.

However, those years are long gone and I now devote all of my time to
contemplating my navel. This is in preparation for Death, the last truly
great unknown. I think it is the same after death as it was before you were
conceived and born. What do you think?

But why do others like Perry Butler of Fergus Falls, Minnesota envy hermits
such as myself. Yea - that is the question. I have always liked to be alone.
It is by choice, not necessity. Others bore me to tears with their trivial
concerns. In another age I would have been a contemplative monk, one who
never speaks or listens to anyone other than myself. I am kind of like God
that way I suppose.

Peter's signature is only comprised of informative factual contact
data ... name, job title, phone and FAX numbers, email address,
website, employers name address. How Mr. Dolan has managed to
misconstrue Peter's signature, devoid of a single adjective, as
denoting pretense utterly defies reason . Is it possible that the
retired librarian does not know the meaning of the word ... pretense?
Unlike Peters's signature, Mr. Dolan's none too "humble" and none too
"modest", self-aggrandizing signature contains two conspicuous, self-
serving adjectives that speak volumes about the ego-maniac ... SAINT
and GREAT.

When you give this many facts in a signature on a newsgroup having nothing
to do with your occupation, you are boasting - about what I do not know. He
thinks you have to be a Medical Physics IT Officer or else you are nothing I
suppose. The fact is that nobody else on this newsgroup does what he does.

Nope, Peter Clinch of Dundee, Scotland is boasting for sure. Again, about
what, I do not know!

But I really am GREAT - and a GREAT SAINT besides!

However, I think I may indeed have been too hard on poor old Peter Clinch of
Dundee, Scotland. He is not really such a bad soul. It is just his signature
I can't stand and his views on helmets. Other than those two things, he is
sensible and one of the old timers on this newsgroup who deserves some
respect for sticking around as long as he has. I am prepared to admit him to
the company of humans if he will drop his g.d. fucking signature and never
post again on the subject of helmets. Is that asking too much?

I must always listen to Mr. McNamara when he objects to My Greatness. He is
my perennial gadfly and does not allow me to soar to the high heavens above
where I clearly belong. He is earth bound and he means to keep me earth
bound too.
