Yes, parr should apologize to Louis Blair pronto. But he won't. Not parr's
style to admit he was in error ... ego won't allow it.

Neil Brennen, ad hom of choice: The (fake) Historian

Louis Blair, ad hom of choice: The Nutty Professor [note to self: don't
*ever* answer his questions!]

Edward Winter, ad hom of choice: portray as head honcho ringleader of
the imaginary ratpack! It makes for a good story.

Taylor Kingston, ad hom of choice: pretend he lied about his rating,
pretend he is a mediocre player like me

[note to self: "the Gang of Four" has a nice ring to it, but that ad
hom was already allocated]


larry parr does have a habit of lumping those 4 individuals (among others)
into one group, as if they belonged to some cabal up to no good. But in fact
the chief factor they have in common is disagreeing with larry parr on this
forum, as if that should be incredible in and of itself. Notwithstanding such,
parr will continue to paint each of them with the same broad brush.

And like I've stated many times recently, parr in more interested in attacking
the man rather than the message.

As for the Innes pledge, parr is to blame for that. That's true. parr started
it all when he went on the offensive to score a touchdown (parr is definitely
an "offensive" player, if you know what I mean) by attacking Neil Brennen ...
only I ran interception and passed the ball to Brennen ... who then ran
like blazes to score the touchdown. And all parr can do is mutter between
clenched teeth something like, "Damn that g4! Why won't he mind his own
business. I meant to take down Neil and instead Phil got thrown out of the
game."

FALLING OFF THE WAGON

Personally, I have nothing against Brattleboro. -- Taylor Kingston

The ratpackers are falling off the wagon.

The Innes Pledge appears broken.

Even in the Mr. Innes' absence, they remain obsessed by him.

NMnot Taylor Kingston, the A-rated player who assured us
that he was 2300+ Elo is googling Mr. Innes on other forums.

Neil Brennen and Louie Blair appear nearly to be snoogling
the man -- whatever "snoogling" may be.

That kind of thing.

Autumn leaves will soon be falling, and the good
news for the ratpackers is that unlike the lovelorn
swain of the old Nat King Cole standard, they can look
forward to their inamorato returning from vacation.
Theirs, then, is not a soulful loneliness
en permanence.

Still, they have promised us to shut up about
Mr. Innes, and they cannot. They evidently wish to
shut up about the man -- otherwise, why make so many
fatuous avowals? Yet. nonetheless, they prattle and
peddle piffle without let. They write in pain; and
although unlike Clinton, they cannot feel YOUR pain,
they certainly feel their own. They are mouths that
wish to cease chattering about Phil Innes, yet they
are mouths that remain in assiduous search of the
man's ear. When he withdraws his warrant and abides
them not, then they wonder whither he wanders.

We may conclude that the Pledge is Dead. It
proved no more enduring than the gloss that an
eponymous furniture wax imparts to furniture. That
does not mean that our NMnot or Louie or Neil or
Rapper-Tapper won't try the spray in the future. They
certainly will.

No group of human beings has ever killfiled and
unkillfiled more often than the ratpackers. Neil used
to push and pop his computer buttons several times
during a single breakfast of pancakes, butter, maple
syrup, 10 or so rashers of bacon and a half dozen
eggs. Yet he always returns.

So, too, do the others.

My pity goes out to the fair folk of Brattleboro.
Even as we speak, they are out searching for
Neil's Brazilians.

And now, the people Parr has fabricated make a Parr-fabricated

The process that has hit upon Brattleboro as the source of
their and Edward Winter's difficulties is worth rehearsing.


Suddenly, with all the relevance of a pumpkin-pie recipe, lacrosse
score, or bus schedule, Parr injects Edward Winter into the
proceedings. Bizarre.

Personally, I have nothing against Brattleboro. Been there once, a
few months ago, to deliver an adopted pug dog to its new owner (my wife
and I are active in Green Mountain Pug Rescue:
www.greenmtnpugrescue.com). Seemed like a nice town. The drive down,
Route 7 south to Bennington, then east along Vermont's southern border
through Wilmington to Brattleboro, was beautiful.

Ah, I erred in including Edward Winter among the four original
ratpackers which exist somewhere inside Larry Parr's muddled
head; it was Mr. Tapper instead, who came a rapping, genty
tapping at Parr's chamber door.


Larry Parr should apologize promptly.



It seems that this would require Mr. Parr to be capable of
admission of error, which is doubtful. In Mr Parr's mind --
such that it is -- things are clouded, and individuals sometimes
are confounded for others who have struck a similar chord in
the past. Dean Martin, Larry Tapper, Frank Sinatra, Neil
Brennen, Sammy Davis Jr., Louis Blair, Peter Lawford -- these
are all ratpackers (even though Mr. Blair can't sing a lick).
What's more, Larry Tapper is a mediocre actor and Neil
Brennen can't dance, though he can sing a little. Or was
that Fred Astaire? No matter. Ratpackers, one and all.

I can imagine that somehow in Mr. Parr's muddled mind,
he considers his post to be a "defense" of Phil Innes, in the
sense that it lashes out at some of the latter's critics, if only
indirectly. When it comes to "counter-attacking" critics, Mr.
Parr is prone to be sloppy, which explains his blunder in
naming Louis Blair as one of the "Brattleboro boys".

If you are going to snip Mr. Parr's ravings, you might just
as well go whole hog and killfile him, for what is left but his
sig?


I think that last raving was suggesting that Phil Innes is
currently on vacation. If I lived in Vermont and went on
vacation, I suppose I might take a cruise across the north
Atlantic and see parts of Europe. Another possibility
would be eastern Canada. And I know it's one helluva
drive, but departing from say, Texas, Mr. Innes could at
this very moment be somewhere in the Caribbean on a
boat, cow-towing for great white sharks or giant squid! ;D

Nonsense. You were the one who started a malicious post about
Brattleboro and the ratpackers ... a post that contained inaccuracies
and outright lies, just like your recent response. Things must be getting
boring for you in the absense of Sloan and Innes for this forum, eh?


Even in the Mr. Innes' absence, they remain obsessed by him.



Thus spake the man obsessed by Larry Evans.

HELP FOR LARRY?

It's becoming obvious that our Larry's tendency to ignore simple and
obvious facts, while inventing bizarre nonsense, is growing worse all
the time. I used to think it was simply because he was just a flaming
liar, but I wonder if it has a deeper, medical/biological basis, such
as ADHD. If so, perhaps our Larry can find some help from this,
recently posted elsewhere in this forum:

wrote:
If your child, or a child you're close to has been showing signs of
ADHD, or has been diagnosed with ADHD, you're probably burning with
questions. Prepare yourself for some good news.
Finally, after hundreds of hours of research, a comprehensive,
complete, and accurate guide has been created to help you understand
everything there is to know about Attention Deficit Hyperactivity
Disorder...written specifically for you, even if you have no prior
knowledge of ADHD or other behavioral disorders.
"ADD A to Z" is a thorough guide written in a style that is easy to
understand even without your Medical Doctorate. Soon enough, you'll
have a deep understanding of ADD, it's symptoms, treatments and
everything in between.
In fact, you will be astounded at how directly, honestly, and
completely this disorder is covered, and how much you can learn even if
you didn't know a thing about it to start.
The reason you'll be able to learn so quickly and finally get real
answers is that this book is written in nothing but Plain English!
...Not the medical jargon and gibberish offered by other books on the
topic.
Furthermore, what's really great is that it includes over 85 pages
and dozens of full color graphics and additional resources to provide
you with exactly what you need to help your family through this
challenging disorder.

Nah. larry's problem is due to frustration ... losing argument after argument
on rgcp .... no one around to support his point of view ... being attacked
left and right ... going on the offensive, only to have it turned back on him.
And on top of that, seems like both Sloan* and Innes have deserted him.

Perhaps some of us could take a load off his back by arguing FOR him ...
on a temporary basis ... that should relieve some of the stress he's feeling.
Any takers?

* Btw,
regardless of whether or not Sloan is muzzled, the fact is that he's not
spreading any inside poop on this forum as of late. When he does
show up, it's usually to hawk his worthless videos ... which represent
an entirely different kind of poop. The scandals that parr was hoping for
have not materialized.
