[..who do you think..?]

I wasn't a 'Band' fan, but the original Genesis was just awesome..

Here's an old fart days (.com) story, very true..

I'm working in a music store in Medford MA, Pampalone Music,
and never heard of the band 'Genesis'. Vito (the owner) asks me
to handle this Brit guy walking in, wanting to rent a Ric 12-st,
and a Bass amp. We got a GMT 300B and 4-12 bass reflex cab
ready, and in walks 'Mike'. He plays the Ric, loves it, plays a Pbass
thru the amp, ADORES IT, and asks the rental fee. Vito wants a $2k
deposit...Mike has cash. Vito wants me to go with the gear. I'm on
the clock, no problem. Vito (RIP) is an upright guy..pure class.

...except when he got caught printing 'fake' books..but anyway..

His store sold SoundCity SMFs off the floor, and WEM PA's..

I go to Boston, and set up the amp, hang around back stage, and
the fire marshall will NOT allow the fun and games that Genesis was
well know for. Roadie says ok, and removes the charges in front of
the stage. FM goes away. Roadie re-loads them. We all laugh.

Show goes on, I'm blown away, simply awesome, unless you've
seen the show then (ie: the 1st live LP) U have no clue. PG is
in front of the stage, black cape, day-glo paint, and then..BOOM!

Charges go off. PG is in a silver top hat and tails, going crazy
finishing the song. FM is PISSED OFF ! Don Law, the promoter,
is laughing so hard he fell backwards on the floor. Show ends.

Mike wants to keep the amp, and the guitar, and asks me to come
back to the Hotel Party later. I call Vito, who wants $1k more

Mike, while pouring white powder into his opened up Winston,
hands me the K, and a bottle. Vito never asked for the $1k, and
was happy just to sell the Ric (well shop worn) and the amp.

ASAP, , I buy the Genesis Live LP, and became a fan
till PG left. Later in NYC, Mike remembered the deal, said
the amp is in his studio..the guitar, on stage now.

Ya can't make this stuff up.

Oh **** off - I picture you more like a miserable gimp drooling over a
keyboard, leaving greasy nose prints on the screen.

I have a 32" Wide Screen FPD. I sit 5 feet from it, dumbfuck.

Pumped by an 8800 superclocked. My HD DVDs get displayed full res.
Do you even have high definition?

Your pathetic remark is about you, and what you saw when you looked
in the mirror. You are like the dog that doesn't even know it is his
own reflection.

My setup beats yours any day, and that includes what I myself am
capable of doing to you.

Reflect on that wussy boy.

Well, I'm not saying you aren't suffering from something real. But I
think a lot of people are simply trying to do too much at once. I also
think there's a lot of mental hypochondria in our society. I know a lot
of people who fret about age-related memory loss every time they forget
where they put their car keys, when in reality they were forgetting
where their car keys were in when they were in their 20s, too. It's
just once people get old they start to worry it's a sign of some kind of
disease.

Yes, I live a busy life, and yes, I usually have a lot going on in my head,
and yes, I'm no longer a kid, but it's not a case of things like putting
down your car keys and then forgetting where. I can be in conversation with
someone, and be prompted for something I've got to say when it comes back to
me to speak, and zap! pow! it's gone, just like it was never there in the
first place, but the annoying thing is I know that it was. My wife has just
the same thing. Even my kids to a lesser extent ( 23, 21 and 20 ) Based on
this, I would think, as you probably do, that either we are all going
doolally, or being poisoned by something in the house, but I have many
friends who seem to have identical problems. The phrase " oh it's just short
term memory loss ! " comes up from people again and again, but I don't
recall the problem being like this not so many years ago ( that's long term
memory, and we are all just as sharp at that as we ever were ). My mother
who is in her 80s doesn't seem to have the problem, but understands what it
is, and says that she has no recollection of it existing in the past.

Maybe it is just a modern " pressures of life " thing, but it doesn't 'feel'
like it somehow, and if it's not, are we just the first generation of some
as yet unidentified cumulative food-packaging poisoning or some such, that's
only gonna get worse ??

Are those people that you know who " fret " about age related memory loss
really doing just that, or are they actually suffering something real that
they too can feel to not be just general absent minded-ism which of course
we do all suffer from sometimes ?

If your worthless little life is so empty that you have to lie about
having all these wonderful things, perhaps you ought to consider suicide?

Your pathetic remark is about you, and what you saw when you looked

My dad could beat up your dad...

and that includes what I myself am
capable of doing to you.

You're start sounding like a testosterone-charged colobus monkey,
squeaking all manner of supposedly threatening things every which way but
loose. Personally, I find you about as threatening as as an ambulatory
feather duster. You may tickle a bit, and you might manage to make me
sneeze, but that's about the limit of your impact on my life.

Reflect on that wussy boy.

Shaddup already, you scrawny drink of douchewater.

He used to post as "DarkMatter". The nym has changed but his posts have

Hey Rich - perhaps that's it !! Errrm, what is ....??? What *were* we

now, that we're all suffering from second-hand smoke inhalation. Good theory

Would that it were that simple an analysis. It is not a case of being
absent
minded. It is genuine short term memory loss. If you don't understand
what
it is that I am talking about, then I reckon that you are lucky enough
not
to suffer from it ...

And if only the hyped hysteria about that plant would simply die out, just perhaps
it could be decriminalized AND most of the practical uses of that plant could
also be implemented to partially impede some global warming.

Before that I believe he used to post as Altivar a few years ago.

I love it when some lame Usenet retard tries to claim a certain

You could be a little more retarded, boy, just not in this life.

Dunno about "Altivar", but MassivelyWrong is one and the same as
"PhatBytestard", "DarkMatter" (AKA "Dimbulb"), and a bunch of others
long forgotten.
