I'll let someone else handle the above fantastic gem of projection. I like to share. But please Barry, ignore me. (10 francs says you can't) I will continue to post about things that I find deliciously ironic and/or filled with cognitive/logical errors -- and other topics that make me laugh. No response needed.
