Turq, I'm new to this forum, but I'm interested in this fascinating feud. Are you really serious about Never? I mean are you willing to lock yourself into a position for all eternity on matters concerning one Edg and one Judy? I've no real feel as to who Judy is just yet, but Edg comes through as a genuine personality, and so do you. Which is why I'm talking to you. I don't talk to mindless words as a general rule, which is not to say that anyone's words in particular are mindless (I repeat this is no judgment on any one's posts in particular). Now, would either of you be willing to fill me in here as to what the origins in the deep dark past were that set this thing off? I see intelligent spit fire on both sides--which is why I love this feud so much, but I can't fathom the underlying assumptions in the wake of all the infinitely run-away forever implications. In other words, the discourse between you is an excellent means of achieving transcendental consciousness. Please help me out. a

It's because he's crazy as a fuckin' loon, hopped up on anger, and obsessed with me. Those are Judy's reasons, too, but she just can't bring herself to admit it. What they don't seem to realize is that each of them could post this shit 200 times a week, and I would *still* laugh at them. I'm *never* going to take either of them seriously. And with every passing word, I'm bettin' that more people on Fairfield Life feel the same way... --- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, Duveyoung <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Hey Rick, suppose that I'm not reposting Judy, but instead am merely > quoting what words of hers have impacted my mind and that I'm now > reacting to it by replying?
