dear Richard, I'm happy to call you whatever your preference is. I notice a lot of the guys call you by the WT name. I enjoyed calling you punditster sir with various spellings. Anyway, hope all your new equipment is working great (-:

Let's see, how many times did she address me as 'willytex', AFTER I told her my name was Richard at least six times? Judy hates people from Texas so ergo, she hates George W. Bush. So, she called him a liar. Judy is a hateful hypocrite. It's no coincidence that Whole Foods is headquartered in Texas so she told a fib about visiting the store in New Jersey. I guess she thought she could get away with fibbing, but I caught her lying. Now she's really upset - can't deal with it, I guess. Case closed.

This world of illusion is rotten to the core. Do you ever lie? Of all the people currently on FFL, you accuse others of lying more than anyone.
