Change in Dale's Title

Maybe the Undisputed function will be passed on through incarnation like the Dalai Lama.

Meanwhile, I am quite happy that you are here taking care of our little world, Dale.

Thank you.

Then none of us could be the Undisputed if it worked like the Dalai Lama. We'd have to wait for a newborn after Dale GOES TO HEAVEN you atheists! There, I said it.

I dunno... that might be a religion I could get on board with.

Just as long is doesn't involve a noodly appendage.

Well, Dale, your newsletter has made a lot of people happy while it lasted. It seems to me that humor like yours can't be forced, so if it's gone, it's gone. I'd quote the "Don't weep because it's over; smile because it happened" thing...but that's maybe just a bit hifalutin' for newsletter devoted to tin whistles and occasional alien conspiracy theories. But the sentiment definitely applies.

If anyone comes forward to claim the title, I move we pummel him/her with cheap reco%@*rs. You know, the Disputed King of Internet Tinwhistle Journalism just doesn't sing. No sir. I won't stand for it.

We'd also have to settle for the chinese telling us the wrong kid is the reincarnation.

It illegal for Undisputed to be reincarnated outside Japan, Dumb-Dumb! You buy now!

What no farewell tour for the newsletter?
No retrospective?
No "Best of" ?
No visit to Oprah (Jon Stewart is also doing more interviews these days....)
No "Tell all?"
Has the History Channel called? A&E?
No memorial? No Eulogy?
Just....nothing? Silence? Darkness?
No bang, merely a whimper?

On the contrary, Dale's been posting on the boards a lot more frequently in
the last couple days. I think, released from the necessity of reserving his wit
for a large newsletter, he can now reveal it to us in small chunks (i.e., "posts")...

Maybe that explains all of his avatar changes this past year.
He was conflicted, trying to find himself, testing out new possibilities for life after - as an "emeritus"

No, no. Not at all bothered by the newsletter quips. Just decided to be a bit transparent, there.

Dale, crystal people are transparent. Is there something you are not telling us? Have you been assimilated?

Or would you even tell us if you had been?

I think that it is tied into his hair issue. First ya get shiny, later ya feel transparent.
Or it could be the empty nest thing....transitioning out of parenting.....
Naw, I'm stickin' with the hair!

And here I was thinking that he had a full head of hair, but shaved it to have that rebel musician look. The look that gets the interns all hot and bothered.
