Morgan Stanley. The Bank for Old Money. They make house calls to cash checks for you. I am sorely tempted to flame them in a nasty letter. But I do not know the full details. The guy is risking his job with postings like this on company net access. — Mark Odegard mlom…@nyc.pipeline.com
Response:
To the folks of alt.support.tourette: I ran across this in rec.arts.poems. I thought you might want to see how one poet (Kenneth Wolman) stereotypes TS. You are encouraged to direct your responses to rec.arts.poems, where you will find the original under the same thread title. As a warning, the people of that particular newsgroup are probably the rudest and most verbally vicious on the net.
