Cliff Englewood Posted April 7, 2009 Report Share Posted April 7, 2009 My ego is possibly larger than most but I don't cry for attention as much as a couple of esteemed members. I think I know the particular Post that inspired this thread. I find myself skipping threads where the last post was by one of them. That's actually pretty good advice.

Cliff Englewood Posted April 7, 2009 Report Share Posted April 7, 2009 There are other ways of drawing attention to yourself. Try the haiku approach - minimalist two or three word interventions in threads you are not really interested in, generally barking at people there for not sharing your views. Or if you are particularly insecure, find the minor celebrities on the board and tell them how much you've learned from them; when they bark at you, tell them how much you appreciate their plain speaking. So true, so very true. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AllenLowe Posted April 7, 2009 Report Share Posted April 7, 2009 "find the minor celebrities on the board and tell them how much you've learned from them" this is a particularly good idea - I have learned the art of the passive-aggressive from a few here, like Mr. Englewood, above.

Ron S Posted April 7, 2009 Report Share Posted April 7, 2009 and i just came across photos of me in a two piece bathing suit around a pool with Cannon, John Levy and Walter Bishop that were taken in 1971. Post 'em here on the Board! Well, only because I think that CHUCK NESSA might enjoy seeing them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hot Ptah Posted April 7, 2009 Report Share Posted April 7, 2009 I wish that there really was a thread about Chuck Nessa. In fact, I wish that he would write his autobiography, so that we could read more about his early days with the Art Ensemble of Chicago, the other artists he recorded, and the Chicago scene in the 1960s. If Chuck wrote it, it would be a hell of a good read. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AllenLowe Posted April 7, 2009 Report Share Posted April 7, 2009 well, I have some pictures of Chuck Nessa in a two piece bathing suit, but nobody gets 'em except Chuck - assuming, of course, that he sends me the $10,000. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

7/4 Posted April 7, 2009 Report Share Posted April 7, 2009 (edited) "Evil Clown is very quick with a joke, but his jests always have a barb. He has little patience for in-depth discussions and will often disrupt exchanges between serious forum participants by introducing irrelevant topics, fatuous quips, and offhand comments. His greatest thrill is to taunt and humiliate weaker or more plodding Warriors with his snappy ripostes. Not a particularly powerful Warrior, Evil Clown will attempt to avoid defeat by accusing his attacker of having no sense of humor." PS: ain't thinking of Nessa.
