Oh no, don't end it -- especially with this juicy quote that cries for a response: "I would like an answer as to why Risker refused to recuse herself even though Moreschi deleted my RfC on her pointing out that she consistently allowed Geogre to continue socking inappropriately on Utgard Loki (with statements to Yellow Monkey which made it clear she knew he was a sock 5 months before he was desysopped)." So, is this correct -- did Risker know about that sock act for five months? She is on record condoning certain sock accounts -- but this rivals Cas and Law/TU. And, by the way, who is this Risker broad in real life? A name and location would help in the book research! |

It won't end until they ban him and protect his talk page. He doesn't know when to break off contact. Now, he's going to act like martyr to invoke sympathy. Why can't people just leave quietly instead of giving some martyrdom speech before being banned from an ill-managed website like Wikipedia? My goodness, he'll be back in a year at the most, it is not like ArbCom is sentencing him to death. I wonder if Ottava will try to circumvent his ban? Will the temptation be too great? Say, Milton, how about User:Katty KissEm? User:Sanked TeeMoaneeus? User:Cat Again II? User:Paypal Infowlerbility? User:Holly Ceptforher? User: Its Cat Headress? Maybe I should stop before we are all struck down? ![]() |

I didn't realize that Ottava created the "The Awful German Language" by Mark Twain article.

Far too classy for you, Horsey. Classy? When I hear "classy," I expect "Breakfast at Tiffany's" -- this is "Lunch at Burger King." Phooey! Hey, someone get Lara back in here -- winter is coming and we need her to heat up the space! ![]() I didn't realize that Ottava created the "The Awful German Language" by Mark Twain article. I assume that, not unlike Twain, reports of Ottava death are also greatly exaggerated.

Put on some Spike Jones music -- more appropriate for the Wikipedia mood music. ![]() |

In the end you realize that lunch at Burger King with the happy ending is better than "look, can't touch." That window at Tiffany's is a METAPHOR, you know. |

the film "Born on the Fourth of July." Horrible casting as the lead actor was only born on the third of july (and is a scientologist, but I digress). Ottava into Risker into Audrey Hepburn into Huckleberry Hound into Tom Cruise. Okay, where does conversation go now? ![]() |

Okay, where does conversation go now? ![]() I'm not through with the dry hustle a popular bar hustle in the 1950's when Capote wrote his novellete. It's not mentioned as such in the Wiki on either the film OR the story, so don't bother to look there. But it's how Holly makes her living in NYC. There's some connection to the diamonds in the bank-glass window display, AND to Wikipedia's flagged revisions and the people who keep promising them for their own gain.... Could we get Jay Walsh a REALLY long cigarette holder, as a prop? And Jimbo, too, if he's that much into Rand. ![]() |
