How many of you read the whole thing? I dropped after " the kind often found in sinewy men of a certain age and outlook." It does not hold your interest.

I read far too much of it, but not the entirety. It was a chore to read as far as I did, and I probably should've stopped sooner.

Really? Everything? Despite the fact that 90% of writing on the web (like 90% of everything else) is crap?

[nobodysfool → nollidge]

Yes, it takes practice, but it's worth it.
