A quick intro [View all]

New POSTING here but a long time lurker. I have done, as of today 35,607 posts over at the Mike Malloy message board.

Prior to that I was at alt.tasteless.jokes which was a running hysterical flame war. I had almost 70,000 posts there pre-dating the Bush Years. I'm still mentioned in the ATJ FAQ a decade after I left so I guess I made an impression.

I have a take no prisoners approach to the Right Wing and rake them over the coals not only online but the ones I know face to face. They have learned to avoid starting anything with me because they LOSE. I got one to apologize for supporting Iraq and he offered to take me out to dinner. I told him to give the money to the DAV.

I'm also the one that extracted the clips from the Mike Malloy Show back in the days when it was on I.E. America Radio and they can be found today at Ben Burch's site http://whiterosesociety.org . Go to the Malloy page and scroll to the bottom. Those clips helped him get the gig on Air America. Some have become internet favs. (Rumsfeld On Acid), (Smeagol announces his candidacy) etc.

I've been online buds with a few folks you may have heard of, some not but who's work you know. I've remained as anonymous as possible through all of this because I know for a FACT the internet is a hostile place.

After all, I'm here.
