Rev--hope it all figured its way out on this one---some of the advice has been down right funny and uplifting in its own right, but I suppose the just be professional and completely honest approach is the best--anymore than that and you're probably going to get more of response you've been trying to avoid--
He had something to say. He said it. . . . He had summed up—he had judged. 'The horror!'

Just make sure he doesn't inadvertently follow you here, Rev -- take zig-zag routes through busy shops on your way, use a mix of public transport, and every so often turn suddenly 180 degrees to see if there's anybody acting suspiciously behind you, aping your walk, copying your mannerisms, etc. :afro:
Planning is an unnatural process - it is much more fun to do something.  The nicest thing about not planning is that failure comes as a complete surprise, rather than being preceded by a period of worry and depression. [Sir John Harvey-Jones]

Hello folks!  Thank you very much for all your advice, even the slightly more aggressive stuff hahah I shall endeavor to continue being professional in my dealings with this fellow, and maybe alter my persona to be a bit of a bastard so it doesn't invite over-familiarity from strangers  :grin: See you all on the flipside!

Oh, and Oz, stop leaving notes on my porch.  I told you I can't accept your story because it's almost entirely comprised of swear words and dubious sex, and no mater what the tabloids say, I'm not looking for that sort of thing  :cheesy:

Stay in touch! I don't mean that in a pervy way.

Yes...but what did you think of the story?  Will you accept it?  Or do I need to offer more free words?  :2funny:
