I understand your feelings Sacha, but since the old fool will always

have our bit of fun. Iisn't that what clowns are for?

BTW Baz and Martin, the Walter Mitty tag has been attached to him on
different newsgroups over the years. So many people have come to the
same conclusion.

Greetings to you all from the glorious, sunny isle of Vectis!


I have some sympathy with your views, believe me! And my remark wasn't
directed solely at any one person, as I hope you all realised. But the
more people answer him, even to taunt him, the more he loves it and
thinks he's got a dialogue going which is all about HIM.

But it really IS all about him Sacha. We all know that

Unfortunately, there appears to be some strange mindset at work where
he would rather have any attention than risk getting none. It's a
strange psychological quirk but it's very evident. ;-(

Someone on the IoW group gave the disorder a name. I'm not sure
whether the poster was medically qualified to make a diagnosis but
when I Googled it the description fitted perfectly. It even explained
why he would attach himself to people (like yourself in the case of
this NG) and slavishly respond to their every comment. It's all there
in the archives for anyone to find.

I know he has gone over the top in your case and you have rightly had
to take formal action over it. But when he puts on that big red nose
and oversized shoes it seems only right that we laugh at him tipping
the bucket over his own head.



How about giving an example of the big red nose and oversized shoes?

Oh dear :-(( Another request for an example never to be met.

Mike

NEXT PLEASE
