I read them also, and I don't even post on this Board very often, so I can reveal all without fear of retribution. But who would believe that Jayne could behave in such an outlandish manner, particularly in public? Best to let it lie, I say.

No, you just thought that you read them. It's all just a horrible dream. That last sentence is the last line of a limerick. Who knows the other four, eh?

And who would believe the sphere is inhabited by would-be blackmailers???

... or all these sufferers of "False Memory Syndrome"?

Said Jayne, “Things are not what they seem.
My version of truth is supreme,
For I never said it
And you never read it -
It’s all just a horrible dream

There you have it. As a very young kid I was hipped on Capt. Marvel, & wondered for years what happened to him. Superman? Meh.
