Flaunty?


Richard (of RBB), in a comment on a post that I've since deleted suggested that wanting to "sound a bit special" defined me and that I wanted a "new higher echelon of blogging".

This in other words suggests that I'm pretentious.

OK, I can live with that - after all I've created fourteen different versions of THE CURMUDGEON.


At least I'm not as bad as the artist in this:

Get over it or I'll send the Holy Ghost. You're doing fine. You have a great wit and you're a great thinker. Hell, Richard's Bass Bag* would employ you! But you can't bring all those other crazy guys on board.
