Me first. Sick before anyone else. So I am grumpy.
- Real men don't fisk. If you can't write your own full paragraph in response with an interesting argument, don't bother. Fisking was interesting for a month in 2002.
- Michael Demmons notes on Facebook that he "is removing friends who send him stupid shit on this site. Pokes. Questions. Everything. It is really annoying." Exactly. Why do that have that junk? Was it built for children?
- Do the Jays have to be so bad that they can't even get one off the Yankees to help in the greater cause?
- Why can't you all just agree with me...for once.?
- Update: Three words. Mid-week afternoon baseball. Sure looks sunny in Cleveland. I should have been taping all these for winter viewing.

Midweek bullet points: you must be sick.
OK, a small gift for a guy who is down and grumpy: I agree with you Alan. You're right. I couldn't have said it any better. Heck, we must have a psychic connection!

"Was it built for children?"
It was built for undergraduates. 'Nuff said.

Couldn't have said it better myself Alan. When you are right - which is pretty much all the timee - you are so right. Your combination of knowledge, insight, discernment and perspicacity leaves me hoping that you will, in the depths of your illness, find the strength to post just a few more bullet points with which I might, as ever, wholeheartedly agree.

I would thank you for being so kind but does one thank the teller of truth?
A new post-university record was set by me as I awoke at 2 pm.

Much like fine wine, or ancient artwork, the beauty of Fisking is in the eye of the beholder. There is a place for fiskings and fiskings have their place.

Fisking is the training wheels of argument. Real men do not fisk.

Having but a few minutes to, once again, agree with every pearl, every mot, every little thing which you have to say, might I venture that most fiskings are of material as egregiously stupid as Mr. Fisk's own marvelously loony rantings. Real men are far too busy, or, for that matter, too intelligent to refute, point by point, people quite so stupid as Mr. Fisk. For, if you start doing that you'll soon find yourself discussing the cinéma vérité of Michael Moore and that way lies madness.

I have been hellaciously sick. I should not have teased you yesterday as it tempted the Gods. I will try to dampen my sarcasm in the near future.
