Is Fatarse Candy Mountain

a) the name of a pair of hills on the Utah Badlands?

b) Yon Yaeger's jailhouse shower monicker?

c) Peter Wieck's Saturday night squeeze ("He's such a gentleman, he
always leaves the right money on the mantelpiece.")?

d) None of the above?

Enquiring minds want to know.

Jon:

McCoy takes a crap and the flies gather. Just look at its Neanderthal
thread and the very first reply. My guess is that it is tinfoil-hat
season in Cork.

Is this one of ITV's phone-in competitions?

You know, Owain, I wondered that myself. Great minds think alike.
Unfortunately, it is also true that, as my late great teacher (he
taught me English and, for doing such a good job, when I grew to
influence by the gift of the gab he gave me, I got him the commission
to write all the English textbooks for the nation, which of course
made him a millionaire overnight) used to say, "Fools never differ."
Take your pick.

This example of syntax suggests he would be a garbage millionaire...

There is nothing wrong with Andre's syntax.

Removal of the parenthetical expression leaves a perfectly good
sentence. The parenthetical expression, considered by itself, is
also a perfectly good sentence. Perhaps your short term memory
is a bit on the cloudy side. One must, you see, suspend comprehension
of the original sentence whilst digesting the parenthetical offering; once
the internal clauses have been assimilated, one may return to the
original thrust. Perhaps if you read a bit more slowly, or re-read
as required? There's a good lad. If anyone were to pick nits, he
might observe that Andre is overly fond of the comma; I confess
the same malady, as I (and, I'm sure, Andre would) wish to make
my writing appear more conversational by specifying the small
pauses which give spoken language much of its import.

However, I fear you're another ****wit; no shortage of those
hereabouts. If not, I apologize in advance. If so, **** off. ;-)

Big of you to claim the epithet for yourself, thus saving the rest of

This would be the blind leading the blind. McCoy is usually
grammatically correct in the same sense as Bulwer-Lytton or L. Ron
Hubbard are usually grammatically correct. Sadly the actual
information contained is tripe. And badly written, painfully verbose
tripe at that.
