Re: [RC] [RC] [RC] re: any horse can do 25, etc. - Howard Bramhall

Is it REALLY that bad, Maggie??? Is my time truly up? After all these years, this is how I end up???

Oh, man, what a loser I've become. 69 percent completion. Shit, what was I thinking? That I could actually critcize anyone with me having a failure rate like that!! You're right, I should apologize. Hold on, let me see if I can get a grip here (so insecure I am, Heidi, you were so right on with that insightful thought).

Man, Mag, I just can't bring myself to do it this time. I'm trying, really trying. I know I've done it before, but, hold on, hold on, it's almost there. Sorry, I just can't do it.

SELF DESTRUCT BUTTON PUSHED!!!!!!!

HERE HE GOES (the crowd goes wild, the woman from North Georgia actually wets herself), TEN, NINE, EIGHT, SEVEN, SIX, FIVE (man, is this really the end????), FOUR, THREE, TWO, ONE, KABOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM

I think it's time Howard reworks that apology.  I saw one recently.  It
really sounded sincere, too.  Come on, Howard.  You really screwed it up
this time!  Eat some humble pie and be a gentleman!!
Miles of smiles,
Maggie
