Since the little green monkey boy Michael Pendragon is a delusional
narcissist, of course he couldn't resist.

Pretty much the same way he was caught when trying to pass himself off
as "George Dance" a few years ago.

You're lucky Senile Senetto didn't add an apostrophe in some wacky
plans.

Whatever happened to PJR?

Definitely, he's screwed up on remembering things so many times that I'm
surprised he even tried that track anymore


Hell, Jim Senetto is rumored to be suffering from senility and even
Jim's memory is better than the little green monkey boy Pendragon.

Also knows as when the little green monkey boy Pendragon was giving you
a you a full out slurp job, George?

We know.

With a braoniac like Jim Senetto handling it, why bother?

Of course George Dance wants to set the record straight.

A typical Peter J. Ross second hand.

A person writing poetry count hardly be illiterate, as we know.

Any hilarious apostrophes?

In other words another false smear attempt


Nothing new from the delusional narcissist liar Michael Pendragon aka
green monkey boy.

Typical two faced hypocrisy from the little green monkey boy Michael
Pendragon.

See above.

As Michael Pendragon has admitted, he'll try any lie or dirty trick to
"win."

Exactly, the little green monkey is the one who originated the childish
name calling here.

More likely George Dance simply had more time and finally got around to

And... since Jim Senetto no longer makes public posts we don't even know
how far his brain has deteriorated over the last year or so.

Since he'll be turning about 78 years old this year, God knows what
confirmation his mind is in new.

That's hilarious Jim Senetto, who doesn't even know how to use basic
punctuation, "editing" the poetry of other people.
