kellibelli - I didn’t notice what you said - I thought loverock thought I was saying he was handicapped when I told him to get tested for dyslexia. Did you follow that? Let’s see, he’s old enough to know girls, but he has the sense of humor of a six year old. I’m voting 12 or 13. ---

Reading some of loverock’s post, I am reminded of archy the cockroach, only without the wit of Don Marquis. ---

Ah, but remember, archy didn’t misspell things…he just couldn’t use any characters that required using the shift key, because he typed by bashing his little roach head into the keys one at a time. All of you who are continuing to snicker about loverock’s collegiate alma mater, he already admitted he isn’t really (sorry…I mean “relly”) in college. Read back. And don’t just focus on the atrocious spelling; this miracle of nature also hashes his syntax and sentence structure until it’s almost impossible to follow what he’s saying. This, in my opinion, is one slight indicator that he may be genuine. If I were pretending to be that thick-headed, I would probably misspell things and advance childish, moronic theories and questions, but I wouldn’t lapse into incomprehensibility. I still am about 80% sure it’s a put-on, but I perversely hope it isn’t…this is so much fun! * * * Live a Lush Life Da Chef ---

Hey guys, play nice. This board may be the only intelligent converation that loverock is ever exposed to. Just think . . . . we could be the deciding factor in whether he turns out to be a productive member of society, or a bum in a trailer with six dirty kids and a part time job at the city dump. To loverock: Lurk and learn. When you’re a little more articulate and knowlegeable, then post. ---

Well, according to Yahoo!, **loverock** ’s profile was last edited yesterday, July 13. Since that profile is blank except for the defaults, it appears that the account was created on that day. Note that this is the same as the date on the original post. So we either have ourselves a brand-spanking-newbie without any sort of clue, or a veteran troll who has created a new email account for the occasion. For the record, my vote goes to the former, just because it’s so much funnier that way. =B^) ---

Ok, I’m a newbie myself, and don’t know much about the old AOL threads, or any elite group of trolls who may be infiltrating this board. Loverock may be pulling our legs, but I doubt it. And if he’s for real, then surely it’s not polite to pound him into dust as you all are. Then again, if he’s a fake, then he’s laughing his butt off at all of you. So I’d say it’s best to ignore the poor little fella. Adam ---

loverock: I have a book that might be of help to you. In fact, there are still 500 copies in my basement, so you can have it for $2.99 plus postage. We will discuss THE FOUR TIRES OF LIFE: 1. The Love Tire. 2. The mental-Physical Tire 3. The Career Tire 4. The Spirituality Tire. You obviously need help withe Tire 1, but we need to start with Tire 4. The tire is made of rubber and air. What makes a tire a tire? The roundness. And the center is what makes it round. But the center is all emtyness. This is what we call spirituality. The center exists, even though we cannot see it. Tomorrow we will address your inner child. We will go look for that child, just like a lost child at the mall has to be found. e-mail your inner child in the mean time, to keep him calm and without panic.
