It is my firm believe that the many insults flung about cyberspace would
never occur in face-to-face discussions, What ever happened to
ettiquette, decorum, and politeness? Actually, I rather fancied I'd
rip his arms off and beat the living shit out of him with them . Well, perhaps that's a bit harsh,
as well as illegal, but I'm Irish-American, you see. We have some
genetic defect that makes us fight over any stupid little thing
(physically, not verbally), after a few pints of course (dulls the
pain). It's a severe dichotomy, being both intellegent and stupid at
the same time.

I think I've seem Zappa live maybe, oh, 5 times, and have been "into"
him since I was 17, so I guess I qualify . In '73 at
Carnegie(sp?) Mellon U., he chased Ruth Underwood all over the stage
mock-trying to get her to take off her top. They played some music
too. IMHO, Zappa was as much or perhaps even more of a comedic
genius than a musical one.
Zappa started a lot of good people off: Ponty, George Duke, Adrian
Belew, Steve Vai, ............., and resurrented some has-beens such as
Turtles Flo & Eddie (Their real names escape me at the moment .. wait...
Howie Kaylyn? and, uh, geez....................)
