This is how I feel:

As if we've defeated over the years a series of the world's most evil and clownish villians-- the Joker, the Penguin, Doc Octopus, the Mummy, etc.-- and suddenly the entire group of them is brought back at once in front of our eyes.

Or, picture a line-up of eight jack-in-the-boxes popping up at once at the same point in the ridiculous music, all with the same painted-on idiotic grin.

Those to whom this refers will know what I'm talking about. Pardon me if I try to put you back in your boxes.

Second time around don't waste the boxes when one trash bag will do the trick.
Also always conserve energy and time by killing two (or eight) birds with one stone. I t may take a little more time and energy to "find" the stone that will suit the purpose tho the buggers might construe this as weakness or abandonment of the field in their pride it works to the advantage of the resistence.
Or as the later of the great samurai, Miyamoto Misashi sez in the "Book Of The Five Rings":
"Strike to kill".

I'm glad Walsh is on your side here, but I disagree with him. Though we both have you and our best interests at heart.
Take the high road!
We must quit dividing against ourselves. If our own people attack you, stand pat.
Turn the other cheek, even.
I reject all attacks on indy writers, even if the attack is defensive.
I know, I know... the only time I ever speak up in the ULA is when there's drama. I'm a busy kid. What can I say?
