IOFF Swap pattern, follow-up...

Note that I'm not using the word 'correction', since calling it a correction
would mean I've done something wrong. And as a Jester can do no wrong, I
would then have needed to send another one to correct that... followed by
another to correct that... and so on and so on. Waste of both time and
bandwidth. This was not a mistake. It was a simple 'SFII' (Swap Fly Interest
Investigation).

The result, less than flattering: Zip, zero, nell, nada... absolutely no
interest at all.

What do I base this on? That's right... by leaving out pattern details. I
posted the pattern more than an hour ago, but to this moment noone has asked
for the color of the tying thread... simply meaning 'who cares'.

But to Mr. Keish Lé Pitzant, the one who asked for the patterns, I can say
that the thread for the 'Jester's Jewel' is supposed to be *BLACK* . Not
that I can tell if he's at all interested either. It was an on-list query
and he couldn't really write "all patterns but Nick's"... right? (Besides,
if he had been interested, he would have asked by now.)

Well, there you have it. 'Jester's Jewel' turned out to be the nothing but
plain junk in pretty colors. I'm leaving fly-tying and shoot for being a
full-time fool instead.

Mr. Keish Lé Pitzant,

Nick had a brain melt down and cheated by outsourcing. Guess WHO he
consulted. The man's pretty stupid. He knows I'm inside his head, but he
still doesn't realize who's sitting behind the control panel (and was
actually the reason for the melt down). I was just going to create a little
panic and have myself a long pleasant laugh... and my plans were to torture
him for a couple of weeks and then reboot. But he couldn't take it and
before I had a chance to see what was about to happen, he just gave up and
asked me for help.

So here's the pattern for my one:

Jester's Jewel
Hook: Daiichi 0605, size #12
Thread: Uni-Thread, 8/0
Tail: Hen hackle, grizzly
Abdomen: Maroon Antron yarn and 3 peacock herls, woven (Pott's weave)
Thorax: Peacock herls
Hackle: Hen hackle, grizzly
