    Gee, why is this post-worthy? Would you post if it were Joe Schmoe's
    bike that was grabbed?

    David Byrne still has cool hair, that's enough for me.

    Ok, ok, if that's not enough for you, he's a well-known guy in another
    field, who has been pretty active in supporting bicycling causes where he
    lives. I think that helps bicycling in general, so it's too bad that his
    bike was stolen.

    And he's probably better able to buy a replacement without feeling the
    pinch than many a Joe Schmoe.

    Tell ya what, putz: when you're finished hanging out at alt.battlestar-
    galactica, alt.tv.firefly, alt.tv.buffy-v-slayer, etc., you can come
    back and explain why it's post-worthy. Deal?

    Right after you get done explaining why people who've been making
    substantial positive contributions to this newsgroup long before you ever
    started pissing in the drinking water owe you an explanation for anything.

    I get entertainment watching and discussing fantasy TV shows. You get
    entertainment trying to make people feel bad. And you think *I* should be
    embarrassed.

    Gotcha.

    I knew Joe Schmoe. Joe schmoe was a friend of mine. Ozark...is no Joe
    Schmoe.

  15. Dude, your posts are so weird. You don't post anything positive or
    worthwhile.

    Also, the more you ride about on one, the more you're likely to find it
    coming up missing.

  17. I agree with Ozark. I find Claire and her trivial, nonsensical,
    solipstictical posts to be rather irritating, and I don't care how
    long she has been a member of the group. That's simply all the more
    reason why, if she has nothing important to say, she should just keep
    quiet.

    OK, who's holding the gun to this guy's head and making him read every post?

    But, in regard to the OP, I guess I'll have to ask "who's David Byrne?"

    Remember the "Talking Heads"? He was the lead singer.
