By the way my dear boy, it would appear that your PLONKED button is no longer working.
Time to call that computer guy of yours.

Now, if I can't get an answer to my very reasonable questions then I guess it's back to your lessons.

I don't believe you, Critic2. You are Perth. I know it and you know it. But I don't care anymore what you say. About poetry or anything. I don't understand the purpose in lying so much. It's like some silly frat boy game you're playing. You are a big disappointment to me. So, I am going to just ignore you from now on.

on the beach?

I protest. I want to be Leonard. At least for one day.

Yes, John, it was difficult, but we managed it. Proof is in th' pudding ~ no regular cameras, no hidden cameras, no kirlian cameras; we evaded 'em all. A relief going home, wasn't it?

Lizzy ~

If you get to be Leonard for a day, then I want to buy you dinner. We'll have our pictures taken. Together. OK?

Was John singing "Helpless, helpless, helpless, helpless"?


Linda.

hahaha, no, but that's a great neil young song. at least i don't remember him singing that. hahaha. did john perform or something and i missed it? anyway, our walking tour was VERY small. we did the sunday one. jarkko and his wife were with us though. but, since john hasn't replied yet, i know it was him because he just posted neil young lyrics on the "other music" board. hahaha. so that does confirm my belief.

Yes! Dinner for two, please. As Leonard, we can all cater to you, Linda. I'll have dinner and photos with you; John will carry your groceries in. Maybe John K. can hold up the wall.

Paints ~ If there's any way you can make it to Hydra or to Berlin, please do. I would love to meet you. As far as your being or feeling left out, please don't. I think what keeps it all going is that readers tire of repetition on a theme. It's not that you have not made some valid points [regarding acceptance of criticism ~ a recent posting of yours spelled it out in a 'non-emotional', non-attacking way, to where its legitimacy could be objectively considered]; however, it's just so 'late-in-the-game' that it seems no one [including me] wanted to give/feed it more 'energy'. I've bonded with some people here long before ever meeting them; and, some, I've yet to meet. Meeting in person really does deepen the ties. However, you are not excluded from any of that. There's really little worse than feeling left on the sidelines [being there by choice is a whole, different matter], whilst others laugh and have a good time. Letting the past go, and joining in, simply with your own thoughts, views, opinions, perspectives on everything in general, will go so far in promoting that. I truly hope one day to meet you.

That sounds like a fine plan! Maybe after John carries my groceries in, I'll cook something, unusual. I think a restaurant would be better, come to think of it.

Whichever you prefer, but I assure you I'm a gracious guest .

John K -

I hope you know that I adore case lot sales. So, if you don't mind carrying 35 cases of tuna fish and 20 cases of Cream of Celery soup. OK!

Oh, I didn't want to mention this in public but seeing as you brought it up first...you don't remember singing "Helpless" in the bar? Oh, well, I'll fill you in.

There was a woman standing near the bar and she looked like Anjani. Everybody thought you were just falling down but apparently she thought you were making some kind of grab for her. Lucky for her, not so lucky for you, she carried mace and I'm afraid you got your share.

Last I saw, you were indeed singing, no, whining, Helpless. I thought you were trying to sound like Neil but I guess with the tears running down your face and your nose all plugged up, lungs burning it was more of a whine than a sing. I thought you were overcome by emotion, it was later I learned about the mace part. Sorry to bring back memories of any kind. I thought you would want to know.

...hmmm ...I wonder if he bought that...if he's going to bring all those cans in....I better think of something he can redeem himself with.... ... better give this more thought....

Lizzy?

I don't think John K can hold up walls so well.

Linda.
