When you reply to newsgroup messages, you can have Outlook (and most
programs I expect) automatically put a header on your reply, which opens
endless opportunities for hugely witty and entertaining prefixes, like:
"<Name> smashed the bottle on the bar and shouted:", "<Name> picked
themselves up from blood-stained floor and gasped:", etc etc etc. As I
frequent car-related news groups, I've opted for "<Name> dragged themself
from the wreckage and exclaimed:".

Looks like it puts them on some email messages too!

But I can see how it might be confusing - I wasn't actually referencing any
events involving you, Chris. But I still say you've been ragging the nuts
off that Jag :)
