Dear Diver,
I was out of state visiting relatives and we went
to dinner one night at the home of some friends of theirs.The
woman had an unusual hobby - she collects PEZ dispensers. She
must have had a hundred of them. It got me thinking about the
different ways people spend their spare time. What's the strangest
hobby you ever heard of?
- Regards,
Mark
Actually, Mr. Mark, You got me thinking about strange collections rather than strange hobbies ... so allow me to digress.Finger/toenails and ones' own vomit.These are, most certainly, two of the strangest items I've ever heard of collecting. According to a close friend and trusted source, it seems as though some believe collecting discarded nail clippings allows access, via Black Magic, to the deepest recesses of the soul. And as for the vomit hoarding, I think there may be some connection to an eating or even an obsessive compulsive disorder, in which case it would be in the poorest of taste for even the Diver to downplay.

Diver,
Is there still a rivalry between East
and West Coast rap, or does it all suck these days?
- Ginsel,

Hell yes!
There is still a rivalry
between the coasts, Ginsel! It's circa 1995 and all hell is
breakin' loose! And at last I heard you're right in the freaking
middle of it all! Seriously, if I were you, I'd get my ass
back under that rock you just crawled out from under, posthaste.
(But in all honesty, the mass-marketed, studio-manufactured,
overproduced, simpleminded, unoriginal, tripe the mainstream
media attempts to pass off as rap or hip hop does, indeed,
"suck these days."However, there is significantly more that
does not.)

Diver,
My girlfriend that dumped me about five years ago has recently
been talking trash about me. Why does she have me on her mind
when she dumped me so long ago? I haven't spoken with her since
we broke up! Is she jealous? Regretful? Crazy? I say the ladder.

Joey,
Perhaps she is still pissed that after five years your grammatical
prowess hasn't improved one iota, Ladder Boy. Spell check doesn't
have an idiut faktor, now does it?
