The guilty ones will get theirs in the end.

Because they can't live on their laurels forever.

Sooner or later the bill comes due.

From the moment I was six I felt sexy. And let me tell you it was hell, sheer hell, waiting to do something about it.

Guilt is an interesting concept in the English language. As the OED makes clear, the "sense of guilt" meaning is a mistaken usage. In German, the words for "guilt" and "debt" are the same: schuld which survives as a cognate word in our modal verb "should" (in the sense of an obligation).

The German word gül­tig, which looks like "guilty" in fact means "valid."

Quote of the day (18 October) from the EBL's blog:

In the blogosphere, boring, humorless people express outrage when pranksters and artists experiment with "sockpuppets."

So, do you consider J a prankster or an artist?

And...if someone comes on here and does a credible J imitation (as Joe, I think did at the EBL's place) would you delete that, too?

Oh, these tangled webs...

Neither. More like a malicious nuisance.

I reject your premise, that J is art. J is obscenity, which I know when I see it.

Anyways Tim, your question is for Troop, not me.
