On the contrary. I can't stop laughing hysterically to this last "Will the real..." thread. It sort of encapsulates the whole LindybyLanza phenomenon. I'm reminded of the cartoon with the millions of Chilly Willy penguins.

That or it's like that movie 28 Days...

I can imagine the "Lanza" computer virus. It would change everyone's yehoodi avatar into Joe Lanza's picture

Quoted from "toniwbusch"
Seriously. I hate having to look carefully at every "joe lanza" post to see if it is real, or a hoax. It's making this thing a lot more annoying.

I didn't know there was any way to make this more annoying, short of Joe actually coming to your house and hitting you over the head with a mallet.

ATTENTION YEHOODISTRATORS: You can't ban or reprimand someone just for being annoying, or being a prolific poster. But now that Lanza is posting his silly "FAQ" not just in every thread, but more than once per thread -- as you can see here http://www.yehoodi.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=61624 -- then maybe it's time to do something? Maybe maybe?

I will wuv you if you do.

July 17, 2003 at 10:15 is a counterfeit. My malefactors are posting counterfeits all over the place. I'll tell you how to spot a counterfeit, ''If it is nausdiatingly conceited, If it tends to confuse and distract from my issue of Forming a LLindy affiliating to strengthen the Lindy community's effect or any discount any philanthropic endeavor to aid our abandoned domestic pets, then it is obviously a counterfeit.

The article July 15, 2003 at 8:40 am is another counterfeit, although I will subscribe to the text. However, I like to do my own talking.

GuruRueben asked me the following Questions and like an innocent lamb, the Black Sheep followed the GuruRueben Goat to the slaughter, where GuruRueben used his own convenient statistics to again disprove my facts that can be verified with the giants of the 1950's in Hollywood like Jack Cary, Darleen Greminger, and many others who hang out at the Golden Sails in Long Beach every other Sunday.

I do have a question for GuruRueben and his butt buddy side kick Jazzdancer; Question:"Who put the burr under your saddle, that's making you 'hee hawing' and kicking up your hind legs over Joe Lanza contributions to the dance world? Could it be that the Green Eyed Monster has possessed you? Sorry I don't have a Pill for that except cogitate on this enigma, "Before you deserve, you must serve" Joe Lanza 2003 a.d.

The following are Questions posed to me by GuruRueben: Question: Where were you in 1927 when the term Lindy Hop was coined? Answer: Four years old in Thompsonville, Connecticut When did you learn the Lindy Hop and who taught you? Answer: I was a wallflower until 27 years old. I learned West Coast Swing in 1949 at Veloz & Yolanda in L.A; Jean Phelps was at the same studio at the time., then in 1955 by Dean Collins who was on my teaching staff at my Hollywood Dance Cub for two years showed me the techniques for the Savoy Lindy Hop.. Question: Is not the "Triple Jumping Jack" which you claim as "never been duplicated since 1955" a common cheerleading move? Answer: The Triple Jumping Jack has never been duplicated anyplace. I have tried teaching it to one European world Champion and Two USA National Champions and a few other top professional dancers without success. Question: Furthermore, what does such a move have to do with Lindy Hop? Answer: I agree it is not my idea of dancing the Lindy, but aerials have become part of the movements used. Having said that, Whenever I did an aerial or a spin or any other Lindy move, I never lost a beat, an important criterion for at least any legitimate Lindy dancer! Question: You claim to be "the only acrobatic Swing dancer in films." Do you not consider such films as "A Day at the Races" and "Hellzapoppin" to contain "acrobatic Swing dancing?" Answer: You'll notice that the ladies are doing all the acrobatics; all the men are doing is splits. Of course if you want to bring in the Nicholas Brothers...! Question: You've claimed to be "the only Lindy dancer in the world who danced on air." Again, please reference the above movies. Do you not consider many of the "air-steps" demonstrated in these films as "dancing on air?" Answer: I don't know what you mean by 'air-steps', so I can't answer that question. You look at the other male dancer's feet in that film, and then look at mine when I'm dancing on the train platform in 'Don't Knock the Rock', and you decide for yourself. It's that simple. Question: Do you consider your dancing in "Don't Knock The Rock" and "Rock Around The Clock" to be Lindy Hop? Answer: I can only speak for myself; I was the badest Lindy dancer in that small group of 12 male dancers on that set. And blew away the top Lindy dancers in L.A. at the only contest I ever danced in at the Hollywood Tailspin and I was so bad, I won First and Second place with two ladies I never danced with except for some three hours of practice before the contest. After the contest the losing dancers confronted me in a very menacing manner and warned me never to get into another Swing Contest. And I took the threat seriously. I'm sorry you never saw me dance in those days. I was good! Question: Joe wrote over 30 books. Can I find them in as book store? Answer: I publish my own books just like Somerset Maughn and Henry James, but I'm not selling anything on these forums. If you want information on how to purchase my books go to:<www.lindybylanza.com>

I'm glad that's cleared up.

Last I checked, he had posted his "answers" (in one form or another) at least 12 times on different threads.

HELP!

I can categorically state as FACT. I am not any of the Lanza aliases. I don't even know who they are. Even Eff accused me of being one. I have NEVER used an alias to flame or insult ANYONE, and NEVER would.

You must have been drunk. I asked you which breed you are! :lol:

Actually, I think some of the aliases are responsible for a few of those.

Nope. The way I counted was by going to (the original) joe lanza's profile and clicking "View all posts by joe lanza." Besides, I've blocked all the others.

They won't be back 'cause Asher went after them like slASHER.

Did I ever tell you about Mrs. McManza who had twenty-three sons and named them all Joe Lanza?

He's back!
