Lying slander is a redundancy, isn't it?

Hi Walt,

The laws, and I imagine the understanding, varies immensely across all
borders and jurisdictions. In some places it is slander to reveal the
truth, in others to disparage with a lie.

One could imagine the paradox of uttering a lying truth, I suppose.
However, given Reg's propensity to slander outrageously, as though it
were a prerogative of old age and infirmity, and to wrap me in under
the same mantle well before my time (but perhaps not infirmity); this
callow youth takes it as no less honour than the tap of the sword on
the shoulders by a Queen.

Alternately, lacking any quantitative data, a shortfall that Sir
Kelvinator of ice box fame would shudder at, I cannot think Reg's
opprobrium is any less part of the act of Punchinello (in other words,
indistinguishable from honest labor when such is so mixed with
intemperance and reckless fulmination).

Either way, I always enjoy the flourish of his hyperbolic arcs.

Richard, as I both said and implied earlier, I enjoy you both immensely. Your
elegant usage of expression as a degreed literary is hardly unnoticeable.

Walter:

Does that mean you do agree with me and Shakespeare sucks--or not?

Not to be confused with the company bearing the name (Shakespeare) and
having made, or is making, chicken band antennas...
