   your mouse got away from you, Drunkery. as a favour   
   to you, I'm putting the text back in.   
      
   not to intrude on this little fantasy with the truth, but...   
      
   the bandwagon story is complete bullshit. in fact, there was a time   
   I actually tried to take Drunkery seriously. the short version is, I   
   finally told him to rewrite his own goddamned poems and stop   
   humping my leg. somewhere in the middle of all of it was some   
   pretty icky suck-upping and apparently confusing anything other   
   than "shut up, Dorkery, you're a dumbass" as some sort of   
   e-fondness. there was also an IPOD and a hat. I still have both,   
   thankyouverymuch.   
      
   now there's a lot of daily Renay, Renay, Renay and me getting   
   back some really old poetry. some of it is actually worth saving.   
   most of it is like looking back at photographs from gradeschool.   
      
   this latest flurry began shortly after we were informed that   
   Drunkery was writing an essay comparing Jim's work to that   
   of Jim Morrison. please note that the promised essay has   
   never appeared and, in fact, has taken a backseat to every   
   increasing posts with my name in it. (just in case Jim isn't   
   reading this, someone tell him I'M IN FIRST PLACE!)   
      
   so, you think it was the leg-humping comments or the ones   
   when I made fun of his 'fro?
