One of my favorites, too.

I don't think anyone here fits the bill. Herr Doktor was ultimately successful in his rehabilitation of the monster (even though it was through a brain/mojo swap).  Several people here have tried to help him by pointing out the errors of his ways, but all failed.

Hi Brian:

You probably figured this out, but since you started the thread the default is to get every post as an email.  You'll have to check "unsubscribe" at the top of the thread.

I shudder to think of a brain/mojo swap with Rich.  If you were the doctor, Rich would be pleasant and actually know something about engineering, you on the other hand would have to move into your Mom's basement and type angry screeds all day.  I don't think any "significant other" would be pleased.  Unlike Teri Garr's character "Inga"!

Actually I didn't figure that out, so thank you! I was wondering what was going on - wasn't intuitive to me.

Wait, I got it wrong - Teri Garr was the beneficiary of the monsters mojo, via the Dr. right?  Gotta watch it again some day...

Yes, I think that's right. And Madeline Kahn wound up with the Bride of Frankenstein hairdo. Hilarious. Don't get me started on the Cloris Leachman character.

True.  But what Brian received was clearly a Private Message via Astromart, not just an email informing him of a reply to his thread...

If you click on any member's name there is a menu which offers, among other items, "View Public Profile".  Mine is there, Jim, James, Brian, yours are all there.  I clicked on richard's....

..."User Profile Does Not Exist".......

I wonder if Rich is in the penalty box....
