    	What's happened to your network?  No mail getting through from my
    side.  I'm getting closer in my attempts to unravel the tape mystery
    (I'll probably have to unravel the tape itself as well ;-)  As they
    say in downtown Bagdad radio: "The camel with the two humps will leave
    the desert at daybreak!"

    	Dermot: The systems were down since Friday morning due to the
                fact that we have moved from GSF (Hudson NH) to MKO
                (Merrimack NH) ...
    
                 I did receive your "taped" message last yesterday a.k.a.
                 4.00 Bagdad time.	:-)

An Bh�rd/Phost Albainnach? C� tha e? Cha'n eil fhios agam an b�rd Albainnach
air an 'Net'. A bheil G�idhlig aige?

The Scottish poet/Post? Who is he? I know not of a Scottish poet on the net.
Does he speak Gaelic ?

Well, mo buaciall, you had to ask didn't ya.

    called JIT (Jesus It's There!).

    This is a coded message from Radio Joe for the music-loving
    underground.
    
    Attack infidel Randy Travis Fan (RTF) with Urban Assault Vehicle at
    earliest opportunity. This is the RTF who makes tape.
    
    Oh Man from Comer
    After Lent when thou Foamer
    Put your hands on your hips
    Open your lips
    and vomit all over
    RTF man who is sober
    because he spent Lent listening to Randy Travis.
    
    We cant even get his bleeding name to rhyme with anything.
    
    Ah well, the RTFs like two kinds of music, Country and Western. The
    rest of us just stick to good music.
    
    Your SWDJ JF signing off for now but beware, I wont need VAXmail
    warnings in future to get you shower of RTFs or F-RTFs to give you your
    full title.
    
    End

       Scots poetry:
                   
                   From Hymie's Glasgow Deli:
                   
                   Do not make a stingy sandwich,
                   Pile the cold cuts high;
                   Customers should see Pastrami,
                   Comin' through the rye.
                   
                   
                   
                   Mr Lang's Sign:
                   
                   There was a man
                   Whose name was Lang
                   And he had a neon sign;
                   And Mr Lang was very old
                   So they called it Old Lang's Sign.

    Are those the instructions you gave Joe?  It's no wonder it took so
    long to get the watergate here.
    
    re: Joe

    proud to be an okie on this occasion...
