How do we know that your name is really spelled Casseres in the first place?
You say you are really tight with this name, but you have yet to show any
proof that it's really yours, no matter how it might be spelled. So here you
are slandering the real David Casseres when you very well know that Peter
Giordano and Doug Millson have identified you as an imposter whose
self-serving claims don't even deserved to be attributed to David Caesuras,
the well-known expert whose work appears in Lineland. Anything you say in
your defense will be used against you, even if you didn't really say it.
Please sprinkle liberally with appropriate style, spelling and grammatical
errors and asterisks and all caps before reading.

Here's mud in your eye!

pages torn from Vineland, then belches broadly like a satisfied whale.]

Urrruppph-ahhh!

Hey.

Did I get the suckers biting on those worms, Caesar, or is my name not
Julius Streicher after all?

More than 50 responses on Meshuggineh alone. Then Davemarc actually calls an
expert and he confirms my correction of the usage. "Well, it's in character,
isn't it?" they pirouette instantly like a line of verbal ballet dancers.

Continue on Meshuggineh for another 25 messages.

Total count on Meshugginah, not including my darts, 77 postings. 13 on
Pynchonian roarshit. Dozens on Robin dope dealers, Lolitas and other minor
sneezes. Not bad for a few days work in the robot mines gathering material.
We'll sell this for a bundle to the Flintstones! And Hitler is still coming
in. Yum.

Let's have another round!
