Hey, I can take it. Besides, everyone knows Dickson's an asshole...
Martinge called me up just yesterday especially to tell me that. There's
even a picture of him at every border check point and in bold type at
the bottom it says, "Don't let this asshole into Canada. Of course, most
countries (even Scotland, I hear) have much the same signs.

I am available for reverb duties if anyone should require them, but I
assure you, I don't come cheap. The only one who gets a discount is
Shakira who rented ole 10030 for a live TV appearance in Montreal. She
liked the old girl so much, she used her twice. Now Shakira can do
anything with me she wants!

Dickson, you're off my Christmas list for that unprovoked assault,
regardless of how well-constructed (Fritz, you forgot the hyphen) and
based on hard science it was! The self-effacing tone had a quite
ingenuous and naivete tone, though. Well done on that.
