Although my comment was meant in genuine appreciation, Diap? I'm pretty sure you'd agree with the sentiment expressed. And that would not be ass-kissing. But here's karma for the giggle, and -- believe me -- I have no desire to kiss your ass or anyone else's for that matter. In more than six decades on this odd wee planet, it's one taste I never acquired. Bestests. Neil

All in fun, Neil. Check your Karma messages.

Yep, six centuries, Ajax and Mrs Joseph! What a great wee error in a rush, eh? But I'm really not quite that old, I meant six DECADES. I'm a mere wee whipper-snapper of sixty-two.

Yep, Les. I've tried the corporate life several times in massive publishing operations. Most comfortable in terms of security, etc. But none of those spells lasted very long because I simply had no ability ... for ass-licking that is.

I've always preferred freelance work. OK you have maybe a hundred 'bosses' then rather than a handful. But at least to an extent, you can call the shots, and ass-licking ain't part of the job description. Nobody needs give me that treatment to boot because I don't appreciate it and they know it. Leaves a better taste in the mouth and your ass isn't damaged by fawning abuse.

Cheers. Neil

You actually said decades. I think Ajax was messing with your head .

Nah, Orlok. Ajax was spot on. I sneaked back and edited the change after his/her fun post pointing out my original blunder. Cheers. Neil

Ah. That brings to mind a recent thread about being allowed to go back and edit out posts for as far back as we like. I was for it, but now it's made me look stupid...?

Apparently I've given too much karma in the last 24 hours. What the heck? That's just punishing helpful people. If I write down the posts I want to give karma for it's jsut going to end up being a Tristram-Shandy-esque proposition.

Aren't you supposed to be destroying the world right now?? Maybe it wants you to get to work.
