feeto:
Do you mean pile on? This is totally unnecessary.
Instead of vomiting up the stale and unoriginal rhetoric about how I rarely agree with MC63 on most things, I will skip the piffle and say I virtually never agree with MC outside of football, but it won't keep me from mounting a defense of him against your ad hominems.
10. The morning paper arriving after 4:30am
Never heard him mention any frustration with the arrival of the paper, but I'd bet he is up and ready to go to work, unlike you, whose best effort at labor is opening a disability check for your "soft-tissue" injury.
9. Has a hole in the crotch of his "Slacks" or "Trousers"
I refer to them as trousers. What's the issue? Do you wear cargo pants? Wait......hip huggers?
8. Can't remember his phone number without a word prefix (Hilltop5)
There are not too many years separating MC and myself; 847 is relatively easy to recall. I'm in the same area code. Three digits isn't too difficult.
7. Neighborhood kids having any kind of fun in his earshot
Depends on how fun is defined. If it's kids frolicking in the summer sunshine, at the pool or enjoying a bike ride, I hardly believe this would trouble MC. On the other hand, the kind of "fun" I see you having is giving random lawn jobs with your monster pick-up, ringing doorbells into the dark of night, and throwing paint or eggs on neighbors' homes.
6. The metal lever on his ice try broke
I can't verify if MC has an ice tray which requires a lever you describe, but I do know, unlike you, MC can spell "tray" correctly.
5. Having trouble finding Glenn Miller 8 tracks
I'm fairly confident MC made the shift from 8-track to tape decks, CDs and now iPods just as everyone else did. Even if he hasn't, the man has
impeccable taste in music if Miller is his choice. I enjoy Miller, Vivaldi, Bach, Beethoven and numerous other great, classic composers and big bands. We'll stick to classic composers and big band leaders, and you can remain devoted to meaninglessness of hard rock, gangster rap, country and acid music. You know, feeto, the cacophony which blares lyrics discussing a dog running away, a cheating wife, gang raping women, and aiming 9mm pistols at police officers.
4. Can never find a pay phone when he needs one
He has a cell, and he pays his bill on time.
3. Has a kitchen drawer full of S&H Green Stamps, but nowhere to cash them in
Green Stamps, coupons........what is the difference?
2. Long haired hippie punks
Actually, I think MC likes these fellows.

Your post wasn't strong to begin, and it began to grow even weaker at six. The last tells you ran out of ideas.[/QUOTE]
