This thread would be hilarious, if not for the newsgroup alt.eunuchs.questions . Sure, it’s a pun on alt.unix.questions … but it’s also posted to, regularly, by _real live castrati!!_ And I don’t just mean guys who can sing in a high voice. 'Tis a rather scary place… ---

> [@](#): > > …whiney castratos… > Doesn’t that translate to “followers of Castro”? I was not going to be a grammer maven, but “castratos” in this sense should be capitalized. You also misspelled “unique”. And now that I noticed it, you misspelled “whiny,” not me (I had to scroll back up to make sure). I think “castratos” means something like Castro’s version of Mini-Me, though. Hence, it’s not capitalized, because it’s smaller. I still don’t think I could get it around my rearview mirror, though. Maybe I could stack him in the cup holder. ---

Drain Bead: (1) Yep. I loved Steelheart! Well, I hated the band, but I loved that their album came out, MCA dropped them, and THEN MTV picked up the video, they started selling records, and MCA had to come back with a new, very lucrative contract to get them back! I love it when a major label gets screwed like that!! 🙂 (2) Aren’t you guilty here of posting twice in a row? The thing you complained about? Bad Drain… 😉 ---
