Contemporary musea are full of pieces of work once called 'dull art' by oneor an
other inspired art-critic: but Time is the only true art-critic.

This 'gang' thing started looooooog before almost_once_month ago.There is no
gang of course but Pete likes to think otherwise.
I became a proud member of his asciigangstein in the early days
of the first 'Steins war, wich means: Pete called me -joristein-.
I didn't mind at all because all the good guys were members of the
asciigangstein.
- Joan
- Llizard
- Veronica
- Shanaka
- Salesman (doesn't post here anymore)
and one or two more, I don't remember.

You have to look at Pete's asciigangstein as something like
the -Diddlers of the Round Table-
Of course there's more people around the table these days
and I bet there's even enough room for you, if you like.
Our main occupation is: searching for the Holly Ascii.

Don't give me that -it's a free country- crap... I am talkingcommon sense hier.
I can understand that Colin developed such a hate
toward Mr Casso through the years but I found your (early) post
absolutly misplaced.
For your govern: unmoderated doesn't mean *I_can_bloody_do what_I_want*.
Please have a look at Netiquette.

No I'm not. I'm just trying to cool Colin off and to keep youout of this shit.
I'm not very successful, I give you that.

Well I'm sorry to disappoint you: I didn't draw this for this particularoccasion
but for a similar one (long thread no drawings) and the
original caption is:

                    where are the draaaaaawings...

Unfortunately we (Colin used it a couple of times, but now that he is
mad at me...) have to use it every now and then.

I saw it and liked it a lot.   :)

That's a nice thing to say   :)
Does this mean we have a romance?
(sorry about that -he he he- but I had to say it before Pete or Colin did.
You never can be careful enough these days).
Naaah, of course we won't be adversaries.

joris
