Just for the record, I like it when I'm allowed a glimpse into the widely
varied interests and occupations of my fellow Listees.  I like these people.

Mike, you're a bitter old man who seems to think that  pissing on everybody
else will make YOU feel better about your own  pathetic life.

You've been shitty to so many people over the years that I'm not certain why
you've been allowed to remain on the List.

Please seek some counselling - the Salvation Army can help you if you are
short of funds.

Regards, Jake
