I was thinking the same thing about this new impostor. Mr. Scrapini, your about as entertaining as Morley Safer in a Speedo. BTW Michael- are we still on for that conjugal next week? Andy Rooney CBS Broadcasting

All of these childish and sometimes downright cruel "impostor" posts that have become so prevalent here on my favorite youth oriented message board. It really is quite disconcerting. I started reading this board because of the sense of community and caring that existed, but that quality is becoming increasingly sparse. I have even resorted to monitoring the "Deeper" board, but haven't posted there for fear that ViciousSpinner will knock-me-the-fuck-out for the difference of opinion I have with him. I disagree with the whole "Fort Dodge/Yellow Label" rumor, but don't tell VS I said that, or it's Bye Bye Baby. Even non-impostors are guilty of adding to the mayhem that has gained a stranglehold on the board as of late. A certain young lady who is in desperate need of a "speak-n-spell" comes to mind. If this continues I fear that the "real" people on the board will get turned off by all the drama and cease to post. Just imagine the board without Blueangel's incessant political correctness; Rob's ubiquitous marching hammers; Rachel1997's pertinent Horoscopes and Tarotscopes; Misskitie's deep philosophical dissertations regarding her lack of undergarments; or without CrystalMethod saying "fiznag" every time one of his friends post. I fear the latter is already in jeopardy because of the whole "fizz_nag" fiasco. The next thing you know Mac will withhold the "Official Vinyl Rollcall" in protest, then where will we be? Who will whoop and holler for Danny to "Make It Darker"? I beg you all to think about that the next time you ponder writing another harmful "impostor" post. And in addition to the impostors/bashing posts, we have the annoying and disgusting posts. I though it was bad this summer with Eggmok's whole "take a dump" phenomenon, but now that seems like a walk in the park compared to this Scarpini fellow and his "Mooseknuckle/Pantibacon" obsession. Personally I couldn't give two schillings about what inspiration one uses while "rubbing one out", and I surely do not wish to read about it on the board. People this IS a public forum (no misskittie I said "public" not "pubic") and we may post as we wish, but lets take the initiative to police ourselves with what we post. DaVe has "the power to delete", even though he prefers "the power to move". I suggest we take the higher road together and insure that he is forced to use neither. Andy Rooney CBS Broadcasting

Are any of you kids going to Twilo for Carl Cox this Friday? I heard Carl Cox at the Winter Music Conference in Miami last year while I was down there with Ed Bradley who was doing a story on Medicare scams. He was really great. I might actually show up this time. The only thing stopping me is am afraid someone will slip me 'the GHB' and stuff me in a closet. Andy Rooney CBS Broadcasting

Can you bring your own, or should I page Ed Bradley??? Andy Rooney CBS Broadcasting

Hello Cazz, allow me to introduce myself. My name is Andy Rooney. I can't help you with the young and verile part, but I can assure you I have more than enough experience to satisfy a booty call. As you can see by my picture I am quite attractive. My office is located on West 57th Street which I believe is close to where you are. How's about a "nooner" later this week????

I will be at Vinyl tonite. This will be my first time "Being Myself" with Mr. Tenaglia. From what I have read on this board it will truly be a wonderful evening. If you see me please stop by and say hello. Here is my pic Andy "Cameras Ready Prepare to Flash" Rooney CBS Broadcasting

The Karate Kid trilogy. I know, I know, all of you twenty something's reading this message are saying under your breath: "There were more than three so it isn't really a trilogy" You may think I am sexist, but in my opinion the Hillary Swank sequels don't really count. Ralph Machio will always be the one and only karate kid to me. So, given that, I am limiting my commentary to parts I through III. Now here's my gripe. In the first movie we went through the struggles of young Daniel trying to fit in at his new school and pursue his first true love portrayed by Elizabeth Shue. We are there with him through the ups and downs, we feel the preliminary heartache and subsequent victory when he gets the girl, wins the tournament, and all is right with the world. Then part two picks up the next day. Where is Elizabeth Shue? They just broke up. Well isn't that convenient. You mean after all that we went through with this kid to win the girl of his dreams, they break prior to the first scene of second movie. I for one felt a little cheated. He is quickly whisked away to Osaka where he falls instantly in love with Kumiko, a beautiful young Japanese girl. After a going through hell and high-water with the Yakuza he wins her honor and all is right with the world. Enter part three. Where is the fair young Kumiko? Don't tell me I listened to that damn Brian Adams song for nothing. And who is this "girl next door" that Daniel instantly falls in love with while opening a bonsai tree shop? Another girl for Daniel to win over, while at the same time battling the evils of our cruel world. Let me tell you folks, I loved these movies honestly. But, come on, every girl he meets he falls head over heals in love with. Then as soon as he overcomes all of the worlds adversity and is coupled with her, they break up. I tend to believe there was an underlying reason we don't know about for all these break-ups. Will there one day be a Karate Kid Part XI where we will see Daniel reunited with all three of his former love interests, who will all ask him to take paternity tests and then sue him for back child support? That storyline could hardly be considered more ridiculous than the first three. Andy Rooney CBS Broadcasting [This message has been edited by andy_rooney (edited 09-21-2000).]

Thats the screwy logic of NYC promoters. He didn't have time to read the post, yet he had time to voice a trivial reply as soon as he saw it. Just like he doesn't have time to read the terms of his <A HREF="http://www.clubplanet.com/guestlists/" TARGET="_blank">guest list</A> before he writes "Reduced Admission" on his promotioinal posts. Then when you show up at the club you wait in line and pay full price even though you were on his list. Everyone here can relate to that in one way or another.

My office is located on West 57th Street. I will be unable to make it for lunch because I am very busy writing yet another poignant social commentary which will air Sunday September 24 at 7:56 p.m. EST on CBS. Andy Rooney CBS Broadcasting
