YET ANOTHER VOTE for Dublin News

     I have often enjoyed Dave's (almost literary) sense of humor.
Although his posts may have strayed in length on occasion, they
often carried more relevance than many shorter posts strewn with
petty observations turned into gospel truths, gossip over the lads'
bedroom habits, etc. So, Dave, please don't go away.
     Instead, might I offer some advice. Within your future posts
be sure to throw in a silly, frivolous line such as "Bono's penis size
equals that of his shoe size because..." or "all of the band members
were found in bed together--with Ali!" Topics like this will keep
folks posting for days (possibly weeks!), invariably filling more
valuable space than would any single Dublin News post.
    However, should you chose not to treat the boys and their
families with such thoughtlessness and disrespect, might you just
include them in your outings. For instance, in your "pub etiquette"
segment you could say, "the crucial thing here is the round system
in which each participant takes turns to shout an order...Larry
frequently demonstrates his own shouting technique," or, speaking
on the "wearing of the green...why, Adam would always chose red
over green!" It doesn't matter whether you're an expert on the band
members' preferences, or if the observations are even true, mind you.
These considerations have seldom caused pause to those posting
such false statements. In addition, your posts will always be
complete--filled with much U2 content (?).
     Well, Dave, I hope these suggestions will help get you up to
speed, as well as keep you out of trouble.
Happy posting, everyone! :o)

Tina

P.S. As always, should someone object to the content or length of a
        particular post--the scroll bar is located on the right.
