Rand is the dazed looking guy on the left standing next to the crazy
looking guy on the right.

So please provide the name of this indepth Tourism Marketing study you
have participated in. There are only a handfull of them afterall,
surely you can remember which ones you participated in. I've asked
several times and still have yet to receive the name of a single one.

I've queried several people in the field and none have ever heard of
you except for the sole american I queried who suggested you were a
conference junkie but was unfamiliar with any serious study that you
have contributed to and laughed at the suggestion that anyone would
hire you for such a thing except as conference fodder.

Just to refresh your memory,


....The question stated,

....""I see you still havent bothered to actually read any of the
in-depth
....""Tourism marketing studies that have been done.

....You responded ,

....""I've actually helped develop some of them"

So please give us the name of just one of them. Its all very simple
really, even for someone as mentally challenged as yourself.

Pat is not alone. Rand went into Scotts killfile; Pat came out.

I mean if you're going to pull the Freedom-of-speech card, don't be a hack, come up with something interesting. Fashion Old Glory into a wisecracking puppet and blister the system with a scathing ventriloquism act, or better yet, drape the flag over your head and desecrate it with a large caliber bullet hole."

Poem for Rand and CT

Sometimes, when I can't fall asleep at night, I wonder what it would be like
to stick Rand and CT
in a room together, and let them discuss an issue.
We could take bets on who would first object to calling it "Monday Night
Football", since
football is only soccer, and it is already Tuesday in Fiji
or should they let Japanese teams in the world series, and, by the way, we
should probably call them Nipponese, and
by the way, I know Sadaharu Oh
which should really be
Oh Sadaharu,
because the Japanese put last names first
or rather family names before given names

this room would be in zero-G, or more precisely
free fall.
And they could debate whether they were continuously circling the earth
in an orbit, or whether circling was the right word
for an ellipse
However, CT and Rand have, in my idle musings
have forgotten that free fall can also occur
in an elevator
which is falling
down
the
shaft.
