Parting is Such Sweet Sorrow - Tom Sherman
I believe Tom Sherman has left these cycling newsgroups for good. It would
not be right for any of us not to take notice of this. So I will do the honors since I knew him better than any of the rest of you. Tom Sherman was here almost from the beginning. He was a prolific poster. In the early days he was a poster of substance and obviously knew more about bicycles than all the rest of you put together. He certainly knew more than me and that is saying quite a bit. As the years went by these newsgroups changed their character. Tom Sherman became a gadfly and finally a jokester. He was essentially rendered irrelevant as these groups became polluted more and more by idiots. Anyone of any intelligence had long since left and he found himself alone with only Ed Dolan the Great an adequate foil for him. Finally all the posts were off topic which worked against any reason for being here in the first instance. Now that he is gone we can clearly see how these newsgroups have become the nullity they were always destined to become. I am preparing to leave these groups myself once I have gotten rid of Jim McNamara, a notorious stalker who is not worthy of me. But this is about Tom Sherman, not Ed Dolan the Great. His chief fault was that he was a liberal, an ideology that he often vented on these newsgroups and which brought out the beast that lurks in the heart and soul of Ed Dolan the Great. I don't think he ever enjoyed kicking ass as much as I did, but he was at least a good sport about it. That is quite rare in this day and age. These newsgroups are infinitely poorer now that he is no longer here to keep things riled. -- Ed Dolan the Great - Minnesota aka Saint Edward the Great - Order of the Perpetual Sorrows - Minnesota |

Tom Sherman often said that when he left these newsgroups, he would simply leave without a word. I on the other hand have left these newsgroups at least 12 times over the years and always with much cussing and swearing and slamming of doors. Mr. Sherman is of Danish ancestry and I am of Irish ancestry. Maybe that explains the difference. -- Ed Dolan the Great - Minnesota aka Saint Edward the Great - Order of the Perpetual Sorrows - Minnesota |
