Public Apology to Monte Cook

Hello all,

Henry has informed me that some people took umbrage at a post I made that appeared to insinuate that Monte Cook was on drugs. I don't know if the people who complained were just the regular suspects who want to attack me for anything, or if they were legitimately under the impression I was being serious. I had hoped the presence of two winking smilies and the phrase "hopped up on goofballs" would have been enough to make it clear I was entirely JOKING, but apparently not so.

So, I want to apologize to Monte Cook and to anyone else who had the impression that I was being serious. I want to make it perfectly clear that I have no legitimate reason to question Mr.Cook's sobriety, and was entirely and solely joking when I made an post questioning the same.

Sincerely,
Nisarg

Further proof that not everyone catches those Simpsons references...

I suspect Asmo knew he was joking. I aslo suspect he was joking when he said that he never saw the show. If he hasn't seen the show, we must burn him at the stake.

So you're saying Altamont didn't know Talrinys knew Asmo knew he was joking?

I knew that.
