Victor, in a typical, over-generalizing mood>I find it interesting that within one hour you have trashed only both James Taylor and Bob Dylan, but all lyricists in general and yet when someone a subtle statement you are so quick to lash out.Franklin, obviously puzzled> Why is it that when I state an opinion, regarding two artists I respect and SOME of whose work I appreciate, you cavalierly construe it as "trashing" them. As for the "all lyricists in general" - where the hell did that one come from!! I'll let you know when I'm "trashing" someone - thank you (I'll probably have to.. you don't seem to understand my communications as anything other than fodder for your own thrusts).
Victor, in a more informative mood> For your information, I have never been paranoid and the only person who seems a little stressed is you. Really, I wouldn't take all of this so seriously.Franklin> Perfect! Apparently neither of us is stressed - I positively couldn't be over your self-styled innuendos. I do take unwarranted hostility a bit seriously though (you remember - your snide remark about my postings which you have yet to back up). So like I said, if my opinions irritate you and they generate hostility (subconscious, or otherwise) then skip my clearly marked thread contributions. If you'd care to make observations, comments, or counterpoints cogent to the discussion, that's fine - but let's try to keep it at that. The accusatory shit's a bit juvenile for my tastes.
Cordially, Franklin
