Yeah, this was originally posted under some other boring header but I
decided to re-package it under this one.
I think there's a mess o' funny guys on da Wreck and I'd like ta see
some discussion about those that I forgot.
I'm not sure if this re-posting breaks any Usenet rules, 'cause I
ain't read them since about 1985, but I live in the fervid expectation
that somebody will kick my ass about it anyways.

Mark:
There's a mess o' folks who are funny on dis here Wreck.
Charlie Self has the driest and most economical wit and he always
makes me laugh. Sometime you don't even know it's funny for a day or
two.
Keeter's stuff is more involved but still comes from a personality
that is full of the ability to see the absurd in life and in the
Wreck, mixed with an analytical intelligence that make the funny ring
true.
I miss old Walt the most, he was the guy who could really get me
belly-laughing - but I think he only writes for money these days.
O'Deen has a fierce intelligence that he moderates with tremendous wit
and any thing that you can read of his is informed by both.
Watch out for that Jeffrey Thunder - he of the all too occasional
posting - he's a funny MF.
BAD can be funny both intentionally and not.
C-less has some funny things to say but he picks on me too much, so
I'm leaving him out.
I don't know where dat PineyWood sumbitch got to but Jummy is a bright
spot in the humor column.
Phil Laird has taken to hanging on the binaries but he used to be a
reliable laugh - it was the patois - mostly.
I don't know what happened to Pat Leach.
Any Bennett that you can grab is funny, but mostly if you can get them
arguing with each other.
Nahmie chimes in with a barb now and then - that can be priceless.
When Baglio isn't taking life too seriously, he's a funny man, and he
says some smart stuff, too.
Mike Hide isn't that funny but he is prolly the best wooddorker on the
Wreck. The man is a genius with his hands. He's just not funny
because he's British. (maybe he's only English - I think you have to
be rich to be British).
Rick Chamberlain is funny. He doesn't post nearly enough.
Bob Schmall is flat out funny but he can't play golf worth a damn.
Pagona has always been and always will be funny.
Tommy Plamann is not funny but he doesn't need to be.
charlieb is a sly dog and gets his licks in.
CW is funnier than he realizes.
T, Theo, JOAT is and always will be funny - when he damned well
pleases.
Well, I'm running out of gas. You know how these list things are.
Somebody is going to be mortally pissed because they did not make the
list that I just farted out of my head in two minutes.
Ah, well - that would make them not very funny. . .
But I'm open to equivocation.

Well, in our virtual carnival, one of my favourites is Buddy Matlosz - some
of his one liners have caused havoc with my ribs and monitors.
Others have been mentioned time and again in this and the other thread.
However, for consistent, subtle and, sometimes, not so subtle, humour,
Keeter wins. He is the organ grinder here, he even has a performing monkey
(or is that a minkey?).
There are any number of individuals that have posted 'classics' over the
years, and a great pastime of mine is dumpster diving in Google to retrieve
some of the 'great moments' in the Wreck's history (the 'hairy post of Tom
Gauldin is a case in point). Google is the house of mirrors, where you can
see the distortion in your earlier posts with the perspective of latter day
knowledge.
I think the regulars are characterised as vendors, with a proprietorial
sense of humour, and often laconic barbs are shot at the frequent target
ducks that cross their sights. Every now and again, you get a *bad* duck
that won't lie down, but hey, that's just part of the sideshow folks.
We get 'lurkers' peeking into the tent all the time, occasionally shouting
out a post or two, then slinking away again. Trolls appear like rainclouds,
dampening things down for a while, making people bring out their umbrella
filters or just waiting for it to clear - which it always does.
The webtv crowd are the stilt walkers, moving awkwardly through our midst.
The main crowd pleaser to date is JOAT (aka Mr T.). The rest seem to stumble
a lot, making others uncomfortable.
Occasionally an elephant man will appear, shocking everyone with his
appearance but a morbid attraction is there nonetheless. Once in a while
there are the drunks (MITD et al) who get mean spirited and demand their
share of attention
But with any carnival or newsgroup, it's hard to say a single component
makes it 'great'. It's the overall atmosphere I like, you can participate -
or not - but it's always entertaining.

My son's think I'm pretty funny. The oldest (4) loves my Buzz Lightyear
impressions. I'm a big hit with the two year old when I fake a sneeze.
Keeps him giggling for minutes!
"Ah, ah, ah - choooooooo!"
C'mon - is that pure gold, or whut?
When popping open the rec - I first scan subject lines for topics of
interest.
Then I go back and scan for authors.
I religously read:
- Tom Watson- prima facie
- Charlie Self - for the acerbic wit and to learn something
- Unisaw A100 "?Keeter?" - to pick up tips on how to say more by saying less
and how to fire a 5" shell across someone's bow without them realizing it
until they feel the spray on their face
- ?O'Deen? - as I hope to someday figure out what the heck a KlownHammer is
Usually reads include:
- BAD- when I'm in the mood to "see" a febrile reaction amongst imbeciles
- LRod - to get the lastest scoop on Nahm
- JOAT (replies only) - to see what he zeroed in on that I missed.
And a half-dozen others that make an Honorable Mention list that I won't
mention.
Seriously, some of you guys make this place more worthwhile that you'll ever
know.

You better watch out. She might sue you for cracking her up. I've heard
that
some women don't like or find it painful to walk around with a cracked up.
BTW - Just where is a woman's up? Is it anywhere near her yet?
Which brings up that question, where's a woman's yet?
I just read a newspaper article about a woman who'd been shot.
The report said the bullet was in her yet.

My list of funny people?
I don't think anyone has made me laugh harder than Walt Akers, unless
it was perhaps Steve Webster with his corn notice to BAD, and then
again ScottC kills me, as does Charlie Self, Watson - simply because
he's crazy and has left me scratching my head and saying, "fuggin'-a I
wish I'd written that," more often than anyone I can think of. I
never know what the hell Keeter is going to do to someone, and so I
have to be spew-aware. Steve Wallace - of "buy the best and only cry
once," used to slay me when he'd play tard-ball with some rube.
Probably the best at being unintentionally funny was (f)Art. He was
amazing.
Utilizing the Wayback machine, I knew not to have a mouthful of coffee
when reading anything by Leach, D. Brewer Eddy, LEE Ward (who was
funny just for the LEEbrary advice), Gary Ilmanen (Snick the
Woodcarver), irascible Tom Perigrin, the list goes on. And then some
guys get off one story or so and it sticks in your craw. Though not
technically a funny-man, I recall Dan Shafner relating an onsite
finishing disaster that literally had me crying, I was laughing so
hard. If any of you think I'm funny or clever, forget it. I have way
more admiration and get a lot more entertainment from the years of
reading this group than any hijinks I've ever posted.
I still think the parenthetical explanations to Jeff (resident
Yorkshireman, Luigi) are funny.
I think possibly the most consistent chuckles, chortles and guffaws,
cane from years of watching Doug Stowe be nice to really stupid
people. It was absolutely priceless. We dubbed him St. Doug. He
never liked it much.

Yes, well...my experience with Doug is that he's not a saint, but he has only
one problem. He's a genuinely nice guy, something that is exceptionally rare
these days (and probably always).

How quickly they forget. <fur=UP> I showed you pics of at
least 5 of my projects, Jums. You saw my purkleheartless
spokeshave, my jummywood shave bench, my all-too-famous
unfinished teak bow saur, Dina's new clothes, the phully-
wood storage racks, the detail trim on the house, and the
assembly table/clamp rack. You didn't see the manzanita
guitar string winder, though. <fur=down>
I'll be making a Q&D clamp rack and a lathe cart soon, too.
Gotta get these tools off shelves/floors and into the work
area so I can make more sawdust and start carving.
I'm redoing the kitchen and these paint fumes are killing me.
The final shipment of LVT knobs is on the way, due 2/3. I
simply HAD to hide that stained wood someone had left in the
house in the form of cabinets.

And Bennett Leeds with his psychotic-episode disclaimers was

Ahhh, the halcyon daze of seeing fArt perched up on the bow
of the turd barge Sears. His sphincter going pucker,
un-pucker, pucker, un-pucker, pucker, un-pucker, pucker,
un-pucker, pucker, un-pucker, pucker, un-pucker, pucker,
un-pucker, pucker, un-pucker, pucker, un-pucker...

Shit (sic), O'Deen, Charlie Self is from New York State (we make that
distinction, so as not to diparage them with too close an association
with NYC) and I'll bet his people were referring to "Them gottdamned
Pennsyltuckians" for several generations before he was even born - and
he's even older than me!
Ya see, when their drinking age was three years younger than ours, the
children of Pennsyltucky would ride into the Southern Regions of NYS
in search of blessed forgetfulness and easy wimmens.
That'd piss anybody off.

I didn't miss by much--born in Yonkers. But I recall my father talking of
Pennyvanians only in a vehicular context--"Goddamned Pennsylvania cowbays,"
IIRC. He was from Kentucky, though, so that may have influenced his
pronounciation.

Used to count the bodies littering the road. Kids not used to booze would
really believe they could hit 100 and stay on the road in 35 mph curves. I saw
a lot more of this up towards Ridgefield, CT when I lived in Katonah. No seat
belts. No air bags. Usually a damned narrow road with no shoulders and lots of
curves and no guardrails.

Not mortally pissed, just heartsick with hurt. But I figure it's
on account of I hain't been here to get up anybody's nose lately.
Hey, I've been left off better lists than this one - which reminds me,
I need to write another letter to those bastards who hand out the
MacArthur grants.
Ordinarily I wouldn't beg for attention like this, but:

... and O'Deen thinks *I'm* funny.
Scott, temporarily posting from Google, so most of you will never even
see this 'cause you've filtered it thinking it's some twisted new
incarnation of the Poopy Wizzard.

Well, I guess I'm definitely not on the "Who's Funny" list. My whole
deal is that I think I'm freaking hilarious. I mean, Bitchslap Bobo?
That's a side-splitter if I ever heard one!
Or perhaps you missed the subtlety of my humor. The second,
(seemingly) innocuous O is the punch line. Ah, well. I'll try again
later.

Oh sure. Cabal. Illuminati Black Smoke/White Smoke. What really goes on in
the Meat Department. Area 51. I feel like a 39" 3 year old tyring to sneak a
peak at the ball game when the knot hole is 42" up.
Would it help if I mentioned Grandpa was 32nd degree?
