here I'm just goofing, trying to freak out the lurker by pretending that I have somehow installed spy software on her computer. not very funny on it's own. mildly amusing because of the overblown 'jim is freaked out by / askeered of lurkers meme. meh

so now I go further into the gag, pretending that I have been browsing her computer, where I've seen jpegs of many tea kettle cozies on her E drive.

ok, so here, I wrap it all up. The request to have them shipped to a mental facility refers to fargon's introducing himself as
crazy to another newb a coupe days ago. I pretend that it's for a 'friend' which is to say, I'm the crazy one.... but then...wolf worked in a mental hosp in Norristown, so maybe i'm talking about her... and limey knits, so maybe it's her....
so, while it's technically funny...it's really only about a 6 or 7.
now, when YOU mention screaming at a radio....

NOW, I act like there REALLY WAS a crazy friend, and you're her!
