I won't be posting to you again, Steve, until you overcome your resistance to reading that five-part post to Curtis. I don't believe you can understand what I am about until or unless you subject yourself to this mortification. So, Canada will stay silent, no matter what you say, until you find the time (with all your very real professional and familial responsibilities) to do justice to megiven the enthusiasm with which you embraced Curtis's postby reading through carefully all that I say there. You don't have a right to pretend to understand me, Steve, if you ignore me when I am all-out, as I was in addressing my erstwhile friend Curtis.
And oh, by the way: the 10,000 down to 100 business? That was, are you ready for this, Steve: IRONY. A famous talk-show host was asked why a well-known politician would not come onto his show? His answer: "Why does baloney resist the grinder?" Steve, you are, as another FFL poster recently told me, the "friendliest" of persons. I only, from up here in Canada, want to put a little iron in your soulso that you, more expeditiously, can tell criminal nuns to go to hell. What was your sensation when that guy found the bloody head of his favourite horse under the sheets in The Godfather? Did you like that moment, Steve? Or would you have rather had FFC cut it? There comes a moment when, in looking down at the earth, you just have to trust your parachute and JUMP. You see, Steve: I just don't want to be found out by you. Because I keep getting vertigo whenever I read how close you are coming to forcing me to face reality. Did you see by any chance the way Tom Brady spiked the ball in the end zone after he had quarter-backed sneaked for a touchdown? [This past Sunday in Denver] I have never seen him do thatnor had his teammateswho were pleased. And why did he do that? To shatter the sentimental context of the TT Cinderella effect. And the integrity of the Patriots prevailed over the beautiful fairy tale. Am I making any sense, Steve? You like what you like; sometimes you have to take in what you don't feel you would like. Now you must understand me: I am just trying to prevent you from realizing the truth about meand that's why I resent your taking Vaj seriously. Sure, he's nailed me in every way; but still I don't entirely accept my fate here. So I just keep calling him names. There will be, then, Steve, no more wisdom and hilarity from Canada until you read what the very redoubtable Curtis forced out of me. Once you have done this, I can go on the defensive again with my damned first sin: equivocation. Don't worry, Steve: I am just a bitter manbut you must forgive me: Vaj, after all, has more or less undone meand it makes me angry. Can you understand this?
