We were harpooned by Proud Tom as well.. the "Hoola Hupe's"
I also found 'his' posts funny and never got to a bad level when 'he'
Lampooned someone. I also do not understand the hostility...
If you find a source for the copies, let me know as I believe it is part of
history! ;-)
Best Regards,
Greg

Hi All,
I have been inundated with off-list emails from list
Members who joined AFTER Proud Tom stopped posting.
They ask me who he was, what he did, why he is on my
List of "Meteorite Friends" listed as: "Proud Tom, Meteorite
Crusader & Stud Muffin"
http://michaelbloodmeteorites.com/MeteoriteFriends08.html
So, for those who haven't asked yet, here is a sample
Response to said inquiries:
If you only knew! Proud Tom released a series of web sites
Lampooning EVERYONE.
I was hit as hard as anyone, but I thought he was hysterical.
My sense of humor made me believe he is a friggin comic genius -
While more than a few turned into sour faces as though someone
Had shoved a bitter lemon into their mouths - like some of the old,
frustrated Nuns I used to have in grammar school! (Some people take
themselves WAY too seriously!)
BTW: "Meteorite Crusader & Stud Muffin." was the title he
Bestowed upon himself. I just printed what he sent in. (If you aren't
On the Meteorite Friends list - just send me your head shot and name -
It makes it easy for all list members to "see" with whom they are
communicating)
MANY people have believed I am Proud Tom - I wish I were as
clever as he. His lampoons were priceless.
Best regards, Michael
PS: QUESTION FOR ALL:
Does anyone out there have copies of Proud Tom's old Web Sites???
It was a long time ago and way before I learned the incredibly simple
Task of retrieving a web page and saving it. (on a Mac it is
"apple-shift-F3" and you have whatever is "up" on your screen as a JPG
On your desktop)
Now I am hoping SOMEONE did save these old posts. If so,
I would be most grateful if you would email them to me (probably in JPG
Format would work best).
RSVP
Thanks very much, Michael
PS: No hate mail, please.
