Over time I've been surprised to see how old a lot of the posters here
are. Some of you are 55+!
In fact, I think this is the "oldest" Internet community I know of (it's
definitely one of the most unfriendly, and, the Internet being what it
is, that's really saying something).
I guess this thread is about posting your age.
I'll start, I'm 29.

Nothing real juicy. I remember her as a very poised, intelligent woman.
She didn't really engage in the the gamesmanship and other silliness that
seem to amuse other law professors.
When the Clarence Thomas issue surfaced the ensuing media circus was very
disruptive to the law school and caused division mainly along political
lines. She had very determined supporters and detractors on campus. We
were pretty much riveted to the TV during the confirmation hearings. My
favorite was when Strom Thurmond ask her if she was a "kept woman." Too
funny. Whether Thomas did the things she said will remain a mystery since
the only two persons who know for sure are the principals and they
contradict each other.
I don't have any more insight into the truthfulness of her testimony than
anyone else, but my impression is that she would not say those things if
they were not true. I didn't get the sense she was an ideologue or was
otherwise manipulated to make the accusations. But, who knows.

Chris, it's definitely the oldest in terms of the age of the group itself
since inception, and I'd guess the median age of a poster is higher, too. As
for being the unfriendliest, I've said it before, but things like violence,
negativity, etc. work like a feedback loop in interpoersonal relations: Over
time it grows and grows and since nastiness has had longer to build up here,
it's more evident. Throw in the fact that tilt and use of tilt as a poker
tactic has some definite legitimate history in this group, and in my case
(and I assume many other people's cases) I think of a funny quip and
sometimes hit Enter rather quickly just as if it were online chat. I'm
especially so with newbies. We may as well either initiate them or get them
the hell out of here, right?! People with thin skins tend to leave and those
with thick skins tend to stay.
In the meantime, I don't actually mean anyone any actual ill will at all.
It's fine with me if you all live happy, healthy lives well into the future.

Utah Philips. The joke about the indian reservation is from the same
story, called "Moose Turd Pie", where he is hired to work on the railroad,
but is forced to become cook because he criticized the cooking, and tried
to get out of cooking duty by making Moose Turd Pie (to get someone else
to complain).

I'm 60. I'm playing the 4-8 O8 game at the Orleans, and I'm at least 20
years younger than anyone at the table. I raise from the big blind. The
guy on my left stares me down and says, "Young man, be careful! Half the
table are professionals, and they don't like pre-flop raises. They'll

I made the mistake of accepting a couple of free nights at one of the
hotels in Laughlin (I forget which one). I sat in the 0/8 game at the
River Belle (?, anyway the one that looks like a river boat) and all the
players kept calling me 'sonny'. All kidding aside, I thought that any
one of them could die at any moment and I looked to see if there was a
defibrilator unit attached to a wall. I wouldn't be surprised if there
are a couple of ambulances cruising the streets like taxis do. They must
get a lot of calls in that town.

Hate to shatter your dreams, but I'm sure that by then they'll have

My colonoscopy is scheduled for Dec. 5, but I'm getting knocked out.
There's a new-fangled cleansing system. No more vile liquids but I've got
to swallow ~40 pills. I know I've got to have it done but I just hate it.

I used to work for a GI and although I never had to assist the colonoscopy's (I
was the biller), I did have to give the patient's instructions. A GALLON of that
crap they had to drink. I found out it was crap when I had to drink 4 ozs before
my gastric surgery. I couldn't keep it down. VILE, VILE, evil stuff. Glad you'll
be put out. : )

No big deal, Howard ... it is a snap.
I complained to the nurse when she walked in to "prep" me: "The problem
with colonoscopy is the lack of foreplay!" She held up a syringe and said"
"Here's your foreplay."
Woke up, got dressed, came home and went to bed. The next morning, I did
not remember getting up, getting dressed and coming home. Interesting, but
no problem.

During my most recent colonoscopy I woke up and was looking straight at
the monitor. It looked like something out of ghost busters when all that
slime was going every where. At least that was my initial reaction.

Interesting, you state that this is one of the most unfriendly "Internet
Communities" yet you still post here. If you don't like the company, why

If he thinks this newsgroup is unfriendly, he should have tried talk.bizarre
in the 80s (which had flamewars and newsgroup invasions the likes of which
have never been equaled by the young'uns today and where "go jump in a
goddamn volcano you fucking cave newt" was a friendly welcome), or
alt.religion.scientology in the 90s (when getting raided or sued or harassed by

I'm 61 and I am very friendly, you dumb fuck. If I were any friendlier,
I would be nice to you. No one is that friendly.
I am involved in
rec.arts.sf.written, hard to tell whether the people are younger or
older but I think that there are fewer young people than RGP. It's
somewhat friendlier but flamewars are far from unknown.
rec.arts.sf.fandom, same as written but more laid-back.
alt.fan.heinlein, definitely an older group than RGP and generally
friendlier. More clublike but the occasional flamewar does break out.
alt.fan.grrm, A younger group. Friendlier than RGP? Probably.
rec.games.frp.misc, younger than RGP fairly inactive. Not unfriendly.
rec.games.frp.advocacy, Older group than misc. (younger than RGP) but
more active right now. It was inactive for years after a major
flamewar. You can see why the flamewar happened as people can be very
touchy. One guy killfiled moi, Mr. sweetness and light, after two
messages.
alt.callahans, not as young a group as one might think. Lots of us old
people. clublike and fairly friendly but some flamewars.
rec.games.bridge, it is very unlikely that half the members will be
alive in five years. We are OLD. It might be thought of as friendlier
than RGP because people don't have the energy to have major flamewars.

As the tombstone read... "As you are now, I once was" With any luck you
will be 55 + one day.
If you want to find out how old everyone is, just ask. What is the point
about older posters and unfriendly NG? If you want to address people
being unfriendly, do it separately.
If you want to understand more about older and younger people, read
'Generations' by Neil Howe and William Strauss. Then get back to us.

Wouldn't that make you 16 when your kid had a kid? I think your mean 48. 16 when
you became a mom and 32 when you became a grandmother and now that he is 16 you
are 48. That is assuming that you and your daughter got started on the family at
an early age.
If you had one at 13 and your daughter had one at 13 then you could be 42 when
he is 16.

That sounds a bit high to me. I would have thought it makes you 29 and
holding.
BTW, if on your next birthday, someone gives you a card that, on the
front, states:
"So you say you're 33?"
and you open it to see:
"I could have told you that years ago."
don't worry about it. They're just jealous.

I'm young enough that I can still measure the women I nail by the kilo.

She's a lovely woman but I have to admit we are strictly a
sex-with-the-lights-out couple these days. Not so much because I find her
unattractive, just that the bulb was burning my back.
Over/under on the number of RGPers that haven't heard that joke before?
I'll get my coat.

Some things never change. Surprise that people are still functional when
they are over 55 ... imagine! You really do not have to give your age after
such an opening. You might ask some folks with a few years on their chassis
... when did you become your father? (or mother)
> In fact, I think this is the "oldest" Internet community I know of (it's

No one can really argue with what you know of ... however, it would not seem
intuitively obvious that RGP has the highest average or median age in the
internet community. I am interested in why you conclude, based on your
knowledge of internet communities that RGP is also populated by "unfriendly"
people. I personally think that most folks here are quite friendly ...
sometimes a little caustic, but on the whole, quite willing to share their
knowledge. Why do you think otherwise?
Also, it appears that you may be trying to draw a *cause and effect*
conclusion about your comment about age/friendliness ... but I could be
wrong. Are you?
> I guess this thread is about posting your age.
I am also guessing at what you are guessing about. I wonder if you consider
my guess rude or unfriendly?
> I'll start, I'm 29.
This is not a surprise. I am 61; likely not much of a surprise either. I
think you are very friendly. Who do you think is "unfriendly?" DO you
learn anything from anyone that you think is unfriendly?
Who do you think is "friendly?" Do you learn anything from those that you
think are friendly? Are there any conclusions that you feel justified in
drawing from the samples that you find?

I entered law school "late" when I was in my 30's ... you will not be the
oldest, but you will be in a smallish group. Be prepared to tolerate an
enormous amount of ambiguity. They really do not want an answer to the
questions they ask. If you are sure of your answer, take my advice (it is
free) ... do NOT let them think that you are sure. And worry a LOT about
whoever is teaching Contracts in your first year. It is not like anything
else you have ever done. Good luck.

Thank you for that piece of advice re contracts, though I'm not sure there is
any way to avoid contracts being a nightmare. Things like that may swing a
close decision, though.

There is no way for contracts not to be a nightmare. My daughter was editor
of a law review at Georgetown ... she said the best advice I gave her was:
When they ask what do you think; always give as many ways of answering that
you can think of. Use of the phrase "on the other hand" is always advised.
Starting with ... "one argument might be" is good. Always leave yourself as
many "outs" as possible. You will lose, but they will admire your
persistence. Let the others be led in by the supporting smile as they
"know" the right answer. There are NO right answers. There are NO right
answers. There are just arguments.

"The judges' game. I'd heard about it for years on the street, before I
was even in law school. A rotating group of ten or twelve judges,
prosecutors, and professors. They all have money, and in my playing days
it would have been pretty sweet to have any one of them owing me favors.
Only problem is, no one can get in the game anymore. One rounder, Crispy
Linetta, sat under some pretense, but when they found out he was a pro, he
couldn't cross the street without a legal hassle.''
..seemed appropriate.....

I've been in newsgroups hell and unable to post for the last few weeks.
Glad to see I didn't miss anything.
BTW, paul, I tried to find that high-falutin' wine you recommended and can't
even order it. It's $100+ per bottle.
I was in Denver a couple of weeks ago and had a glass of 40 year old Tawny
Port (at $24). I was skeptical that the age would make that much difference
but I was wrong. VERY good stuff.

Hi, James. I was just thinking about you yesterday and wondering where've
you been.
James, didn't you try to order it from Duckhorn's website? I thought it was
only $80. Back in the 80s, this wine, the Three Palms Vineyard version, was
a bargain at under $30. Of course, times have changed, and this wine's
character is not a secret anymore. I do remember buying a case a few times,
late 80s, early 90s. I bought six bottles a few years ago.
Anyway, why can't you order it? Can you get a later vintage? Surely it's
available in your state somewhere. But did you try their website?

I toured wineries in southern France and in Napa Valley. Since then, I've
set out several times, determined to buy a bottle of $100+ wine.
Unfortunately, I never made it past the Guinness and Harp. However, I
remain undeterred and shall continue my quest.

Specifically, Mike, we were talking about Duckhorn's Three Palms Vineyard
Merlot. It is listed here as $80, although I have not ordered from the
Winery in over a year.

Well, truth be told, good wine is pretty much wasted on me. I don't really
like the taste, rarely ever drink it and couldn't tell the difference
between a $20 and a $200 bottle. In fact, about the only wine I ever drink
is Mondovi white zinfandel (sp?) and I only like that when it's served
really cold.
I did enjoy the winery tours though. These are people whose whole lives
seem to revolve around wine. On the Mondovi tour, they were talking about
the owner planting a new section of vines that they predicted would produce
some really wonderful wine in about fifteen to twenty years. The guy was 76
at the time! Now that is dedication.

Sure you could, Mike. But don't forget to let it breathe an hour. I'm
talking good reds, of course.
Our buddy Wuz/Luv/DP7 knows a lot about wine. I'm only into good reds, but
if I had any questions about other wines I would ask Wuz/Luv/DP7.

's OK, I can't afford them anyway. There's no point hanging
about with something that only cost $12 though, and there's
masses of them that are highly palatable, at least on this side
of the pond.

I've seen Devilfish partake during a tourny. I'd wager Elle Elezra(sp) and
Hellmuth are lovers of the grape. Raymer and Hachem would too...Farha
seems like a scotch man...Daniel N might be into wines...he is more of a
health nut...seen him have a few beers at times...
Can't really think of any others...I am sure there are more...
If Norman Chad was my partner....MadDog 20/20 would be in my coffee cup
all the time.

You think rgp is unfriendly? I think it is VERY friendly. I genuinely
dislike only a very few, and even the more tart-tongued here gave me
support during my run at the WSOP. I'm actually surprised that you find
it unfriendly here...perhaps it is because you are only 29.
I'll be 43 in about a month. They tell me that 40 is the new 30
though...woo hoo.

I concur. I've met a LOT of great friends through RGP, some I haven't met in
real life yet, but others I have. Always a good time when you're with other
like-minded people, IMO.
Happy Birthday in advance Brew!!

Um, didn't I already say I'm 42? Since I've lived almost my whole life in
L.A. (only the last year in Murrieta) I probably know you Paul. FWIW, I
actually like you Paul, but I dislike Ramashithead, and don't understand
why you kowtow to him.

I know how old you are. Just checking if Kinnipak knew.
Were you an LA 'rounder' in, uhh, the 80s? The 70s? Play Bell? Gardena?

Not me. I'm a pretty mellow and happy guy for the most part. FWIW, I got
my ChemE PhD in 1989. That should date me.
I really thought Skillz was more like, 12.

I would say Skillz...after he shot each person he would say "ThankYOU"
Brew seems more like the ssneaking poison in your drink so he can still
take your money at the table while watching you die ever so slowly.

killfiled him so long ago and I have so many names in the kill file I cannot
find him. I would like to remove his "address" from my kill file (I am a

I feel a need to addres the "unfriendliness" issue. I've been posting and
lurking here since Dec of '95. Three of my best friends in the World, and
dozens of other friends were people I met here or through the regional "ARG"
tournaments that are held around the Country.
I will agree that there are some flamewars here, but NOTHING like some of
the other ng's out there. Most of the arguing here is about "nit picking"
with poker advice and of course, the two things EVERYONE argues about,
politics and religion.
I think you'll find that a lot of the bullshit is easily skimmed over, and
this is still an excellent ng, although nowhere NEAR as friendly as it once
was. It truly was a "community" at one point in time where probably 70% of
the posters knew at least 3 or 4 other posters in person.
Since the Poker Boom, RGP has changed, but I'm still here, as are a handful
of the original (first year) posters. Many just don't post here much
anymore.

Yeah, but were you old enough to see Janis Joplin live in concert?
It was at the Seattle Pilots spring training stadium between the
buttes in Tempe Az. The Allman Brothers were there too. T'was
the summer of '69.

I saw that tour. At Shea Stadium in NY. I was on the field (no seats)
which was covered with a thick plastic tarp. A guy in front of PROJECTILE
vomitted all over the place. You can imagine how fast it spread on the
tarp. A guy walked up...flicked his switch blade and cut a huge square
around the tarp with his knife. The crowd around us started cheering
wildly and must have bought him 1000 drinks.
Good Times.

That's one I haven't heard or seen. I have heard Bonnie Tyler do it as
well as Janis. Peggy does it ok but that guitarist is smoking. This is
much more Janis' kind of music, in my opinion, than "Me n Bobby McGee."

That was hard to watch but worthwhile. I didn't see it when it aired.
If either of the people she had a date with that night had shown up,
she would have lasted at least another day.

I enjoy a good beer quite often as well. I guess my horizons are just

Too true. One of the worst misconceptions about wine is that decanting
is for mature bottles. While this is true in the case of very old
Vintage Porto (or unfiltered wines of any kind) it is done to get the
wine off the sediment, not for breathing.
Even more interesting is the use of Porto tongs, which are employed on
bottles of Vintage Porto that are so old that the cork cannot/should
not be removed for fear of getting bits of old cork and/or sediments
into the wine. They are heated to a red-hot glow and clamped around
the neck of the bottle just below the cork where they melt through the
glass just enough to allow the top of the neck to be cleanly snapped
off, and the Porto decanted.

Brilliant! Cork and sediment taste awful while tiny glass shards add no
flavor.

Have you found any shoes to go with that dress? ;-)

Actually, it was 1964. I had my conservative wake-up call during the
second term of the Regan Administration.

I remember the time well. That was when Reagan supported Napolean Duarte in
El Salvador. Napolean Duarte was a carrer socialist, although the biased
Press in this country referred to him as a 'centrist'. What the fuck is a
CENTRIST? I'll tell you what it was. Duarte had earlier tried and failed
to orchestrate a communist coup. He also previously ran for office with
Guillermo Ungo as his running mate. Ungo was head of the Soviet-backed
Farabundo Marti communist terrorists.
I had MY wake-up call during that period also. My wake up call was to learn
that Reagan and the group surrounding him only feigned anti-communism in
their rhetoric. Their actions were entirely different. True
anti-communists around the world were betrayed and stabbed in the back.
For example, like in El Salvador, the Reagan Administration supported the
WRONG Contras in Nicaragua. The American people to this day mostly think of
the so-called Contras as 'opposition' to the communist Sandanistas. That's
not the whole story. There were MORE than just one faction. And we
supported the WRONG ones. The results? The results were to 'neutralize'
true opposition to communism in Nicaragua. It is difficult to understand
unless one knows completely how Nicaragua was overthrown in the first place.
But today, in 2006, we see that communism is alive and well in Central
America, mostly due to the sabotage by traitors in the Reagan
Administration, the so-called 'anti-communists' of the Reagan
Administration.

Actually, I first used that word back in 98 when the whack-job Perot
threw the election into the hands of that lib-tard Clinton.
That was probably one of the FIRST uses of that word.

Well that's special!!! (I like that "Oh, what a witty retort!" part
best :)
We sure do need more lib-tards owning their own business so they can
redistribute all of their profits to their employees (who I'm sure are
all paid well above minimum wage). Unless of course, it's one of those
"I own my own business" where you don't have any employees and your
only reason to call yourself a business is so you can stretch the truth
about your wages and scam Uncle Sam out of his rightfully due tax
dollars).

My mistake on the description. The neck is not actually snapped off,
but melted clean through. It's been a while since I've seen the
procedure performed and my memory ain't what it used to be ;-)

When I was 29, USENET had not yet been invented.
