artist v. con-artist(s): an unhappy battle brewing

[Tchocolatl]

First, this reader repeats that we do not know what is true and what is brew. Therefore, why can't we think that the gigolo (I mean Hugh) could also be a terrorist, for the bets are open to anything that can go, here.

Linda, did you ever consider that I may have zombified you with a little doll and pins and that I may give you directly "your" thoughts.....? Hum? OOOoooooo

If I remimber well, the percentage of Americans who voted for GWB was enough for me to think that they want their money to be spent into the war.

Yes, I also guessed that the tax money should be trown this side of the lines. No war here. (A couple of pretty boys and many boutiques to spend it, on the other hand).

GEezzzz.... I am the one here who wish that he did not have to go only to Ben's
and never again to this expensive second floor steakhouse (what's the name again? 'have to ask to this waiter that passes from time to time)

[linda_lakeside]

... must find Ben's...must find Ben's...must find Ben's...

Hey! Stop with the voodoo dolls! Did that picture look sort of 'crooked?'

I have to run (to bed - ha!), I will however, read the rest of the link upon my rising during the pre-dawn hours.

See you when we see you,
Linda.

Tom...I have a little time now to address your concerns.

Your Post:

Young dr. Freud wrote:
Here's a clue. One of them gleefully provided the tidbit about Kelley Lynch jumping into the swimming pool when the SWAT team swooped in

accuses the pair of institgating an incident in which the Los Angeles Police Department SWAT Team descended on Lynch's home and arrested her in her bathing suit.

Here's the first news that Mrs. Lynch was arrested in her bathing suit, dear dr. Fraud. And by the way, she wasn't arrested.

Dear Tom...my remark about hypocrisy and a clue to it...which you quoted... does not have anything to do with the chronological order of information given on this thread. It has to do with your evident delight in Kelley Lynch's incarceration ...criminal or psychiatric.

Here is what you wrote previously:

As far I heard, Kelley jumped into the pool when she was arested -I wondered, Jesus, how many money thas she get as Leonard's manage to have pool & house in Hollywood?

So it's obviously O.K. in your book to be a "horror writer" when it's about Kelley Lynch...I mean, where are your facts. True or not True...It's just something you "heard." You know...Gossip....The thing everybody on this thread pretends to abhor.

Quite frankly, I'm wondering (if it's true) how a lad from Croatia gets that kind of information. Somebody's talking who shouldn't be talking.

So you're back, and I already forgot about you. You took few days off after you lost the temper and argument with Tchoco, and now you're going back few pages to me, and you still don't answer on direct question we asked you (do I need to repeat?).

[Young dr. Freud]

Oh, Tom

You "never" forgot about me.

You don't like it because I called your hand about your own "horror writing" while condeming others for the same thing. You're the one who supplied the juicy bit of gossip about Kelley Lynch jumping into the pool. You're not the "truth shiner" you pretend to be.

As for Choc-full-O'Nuts...I couldn't lose an argument with her if I tried. Much less my temper. Her incoherent blatherings are completely irrelevant. You might get something out of them however.

and you still don't answer on direct question we asked you (do I need to repeat?).

Go ahead and repeat the question. (But hey, I thought you were a truth shiner and not into gossipy discussions of this nature).

I'll answer it when you answer where or from whom you are getting your info about Kelley Lynch.

So long, Truth Shiner.

Holy man. I'm never going to get through all of this. I remember the SWAT team remark and the bathing suit bit way back when I first came in and then left (around page 3/4 or so).

Tom, it's my impression that a manager in L.A., would have a swimming pool (at least one) - it sort of goes with the territory. Everyone down there (in the biz) has a pool and a Mercedez. That's probably an over simplification, but it's not unusual.

Now, everyone stop posting until I get unconfused. No. That wouldn't work either, as it would mean the end of the thread.

Linda.

(do I need to repeat?).

All I can offer in reply is
1. I, like all the forum members, am not in "the biz"".
2. There is no-one I know who has at least one swimming pool.
3. Re the reference to the Mercedes Benz: Janis Joplin wanted one, but she gave him head instead, on an unmade bed, and that wasn't unusual.
4. Your reply is not an over simplification.
5. I don't think this thread is going to end......as they say in Scotland "it wisnae me!".

Andrew.

[linda_lakeside]

To clarify my post:

1. Yes, my reference to 'Mercedez' was indeed 'sic'
2. Hard to say who is in 'the biz'
3. I have worked in 'the biz' and many managers, agents and general hangers on very often led the 'good life' which included pools and the Mercedes Benz - often not 'paid for' but it looked like it (on the surface)
4. Getting head on an unmade bed is still not unusual
5. I think it's safe to say that Closing Time for this thread is a long way off.

Dear dr. Freud, after Tchoco's remark that you can go now to Mormons because they have more interesting scandal going on, you totally lost your way. But you like to ignore those two pages where you're not in center, and after three days of respectful silence (was it enough? Only three days for victims of London?), you are going back four or five pages back to find my "weak" point. - I knew some people who were like you. They were printing out every email they got, and they like to butcher ("analyse") other people's words and texts like you do. And they always, always thought they're only right and their word must be the last one. Some of them also liked to use "Freudian" discourse. But I guess in the end, they were those who needed to take care of themselves, find their way in life, go beyond their ego-maniacal disorder (which roots are in their own uncertainty, I guess) and to learn how accept other people as equal human beings.

The Agile/Greenberg camp reportedly filed its pre-emptive lawsuit on June 6 in Boulder County District Court. That means, any day now, if it hasn't happened already, there'll be some sort of defence filing made on behalf of Leonard Cohen. And, depending on how they wish to proceed, that could also be the time to file any counter-claim.

Court procedures vary in different countries and jurisdictions. And, unless there's someone on this board who lives in Boulder, Colorado, I guess we'll not hear about the filing until the local media pick up on it.

[Young dr. Freud]

after Tchoco's remark that you can go now to Mormons because they have more interesting scandal going on, you totally lost your way.

I have no use for the illogical ravings of the nutty Chocfull. You shouldn't pay attention to her either. Having her on your side doesn't make you look good. She's your Kory. Dump her.

I didn't go back four or five pages. I went back to the last posts in which you addressed me. That's was the day of the bombings. Sorry if my waiting three days to reply botherd you.

As for your weak point. That would be hypocrisy.

And I didn't butcher your posts. I quoted you directly and pointed out that what was sauce for me was also sauce for you. So eat up and eat hearty.

Anybody who reads this thread without a biased mind (or in Chocfull's case...a diseased one) will see that I was never out-of-line in anything I wrote about this case. While I have written that I think Leonard's hands are not exactly as well-manicured as they once were...I have also raised questions about Greenberg's role in the POA and "corporation." Your idol has feet of clay. You're just going to have to deal with it and stop with the "HOW DARE YOU!" posts.

(What gets me is that Lightning can write a post about karma biting Leonard in the --s and there is not one screeching peep out of you. So, I quess it all depends on whose goring the ox.)

I'm going to make a prediction that should make you happy Tom. This case is going to come to a very quiet resolution. All the garbage is going to be swept under the transcendental rug. So rest easy and get back to tending The Flame.

Adrian-- there was an RS on June 30.

I do not write HOW DARE YOU! posts, but only look for a way to put into your head a thought that you're not alone in the world. This has nothing to do anymore with Agile affair. I wrote my previous post. You didn't read. You only prove all I wrote three posts above this.

[Young dr. Freud]

St. Leonard help us!

Dear dr. Freud, after Tchoco's remark that you can go now to Mormons because they have more interesting scandal going on, you totally lost your way.

Forgive me. But the above paragraph doesn't sound like a man who is:

only look for a way to put into your head a thought that you're not alone in the world.

You guys kill me. You get yourselves worked up into a lather in post after post and then...you get all sanctimonious and claim you're just trying to get your opponent to realize there are 6 billion other people on the planet. It all Hypocrisy. (There's that word again).

I like you better when you're just being Tom -- The Truth Shiner.

In the absence of further factual details - beyond those which do exist, and are contained earlier in this thread, it's natural that personalities become the focal point of conversation.

It's healthy to recognize our great artists as human beings, and, it's also wonderful, and rare, to have the opportunity, as we do here - to potentially aid someone who has given us much through his life and art.

Boss has started a thread - stating the truth that Leonard is bigger than money.

We've all expressed our feelings and concerns. And I really believe we all want nothing but the best for Leonard. Seems like a very natural point to focus on the good ~ and let the rest pass.
