I reenter the arena and lay waste about me with my **PC loaded with Win 3.11** and **numerous copies of “You know you’re in the 90’s when…” e-mail!!!**

That should take care of things…

I meditate upon the teachings of the Blue Master of the Green Mountain before the might of your **PC loaded with Win 3.11** before calmly dispatching it with an elegant _ **Better Homes and Gardens Cookbook** _!

My years spent in the empty deserts of Afghanistan learning from the fighting hermit-mullahs helps steady me as I vanquish your **numerous copies of “You know you’re in the 90’s when…” e-mail** with a **Stouffer’s Microwave French Bread Pizza!**

</div>

A new contender steps boldly into the ring and with a self-assured smile attempts to single-handedly clear the field of all elements, including both a **Stouffer’s Microwave French Bread Pizza** and a **Better Homes and Gardens Cookbook** by playing a wild card, a raging and incomprehensible **FNORD**!

Sneaking up on your sneaky **Epistemology** , I enter the ring with my \*\*Patented Anagramamatic \*\* and suddenly your **Epistemology** is revealed to be nothing more than a pathetic **Simple Ego Toy**. I will smash this to smithereens using my **SDMB insultamatic** : :wally

Realizing the power of the SDMB INSULTOMATIC, I quickly deploy my UNREADAPTED ORIGINAL VERSION “STAR WARS TRILOGY” including interviews with George Lucas (he sure has put on weight)that make you waste time fast forwarding through them to get to the movie. May the FARCE be with me.

At the very last instint I turn and unleash the fury of my **AltaVista Babelfish cross translator** all your responses are now garbled beyond comprehension.

Augh! A vicious fish attack! But I shall counter with something so lethally plain even a Babelfish cannot stand before it (metaphorically speaking. of course: fish don’t have legs). Prepare to encounter the pain, the agony, the sheer mindnumbing boredom of…
