Besides, who would be pathetic enough to find internet cafes and post to the list while on vacation?!

only very few spend their vacations underwater in the rain.

First of all, what is this "gang!" sh#t. I don't know about the rest of you, but I'm not a member of his "gang".

It was a typo; he meant to say goons. Have you ever tried typing without a ball?

Uhhh, I tried, but the level of technology in Georgia and the Carolinas was below that of Peru.

curmudgeoness aside, I think MB is just a super nice guy at heart. That's why he connects with all the touchy-feely types on SI, like BoaBabes and FishLegs, and such.

As such, he's really a throwback to those characters in the "feel good" movies of the 30's and 40's, like a Jimmy Stewart kind of guy. You know the type, we're all "part of the gang", and "hey, everything's swell". I've had breakfast with the guy; trust me, his technique, insidious as it is, is to smile you to death. Before I could figure things out, he was smiling my brains out, and I was paying the bill.

beware, beware....

People who don't do their SCUBA thingy in the rain for fear of getting wet.
