I have a crazy person e-mailing me.

I've had angry people e-mail me, and I've had nice correspondence with people asking if they can use a blog entry or just to comment to me directly on an entry, without wanting to seem rude or critical in public (a high percentage of my tiny number of readers are Minnesotan...you fellow Minnesotans know the type.)

But I've got a bona-fide dyed-n-the-wool crazy person now:

G'DAY TERESA WITHOUT A "H" UNLIKE THAT OLD BIDDIE MUTHAFUKKIN THERESA,WHO LOVED MAKING POVERTY STRICKEN PEOPLE SUFFER AGONISINGLY SLOW PAINFULL DEATHS FOR THE BENEFIT OF HER OWN DEMENTED JEHOVAH JIVING JESUS JUNKIE BELIEFS!

Oh yeah...aint that special?

Now, this person claims to be an atheist and talks as though he's offended by my religious sentiments.  I can only assume he is insane or deficient.

To all the Mother-Theresa haters out there...you might not have liked the things she did, or the decisions she made, or the resaons she made them...but until you come up with a solution to the problem of poverty in India, I suggest you put your energies into that or at least into seeking mental help for yourself.

I understand people being frustrated by most of her money staying in the church, while her charges were given minimal care; her accepting "humanitarian" donations from really bad people who created their share of misery, among other things.

But honestly, I don't know how brow-beating a midwestern houswife through e-mail is going to change that.  If you think you have something important to say on a subject, I'd expect you'd at least want to say it in public.

Even the Paulanistas know THAT.
