...she ran off to intellect

actually she ran off to make dinner, because it's dinner time here and no, I'm not going to engage in what ever it is you're trying to engage in. I don't feel like that kind stress or anxiety tonight. I know I'll just end up mad or feeling bad - so no thanks.

Bravo!!!

Bravo!!! Indeed, Mark.

The Queen cannot reply. 'She' is checkmated.

By the way, Mark from California, why is it the Queen has almost total dominance on a chess board, and the King can only move one square at a time? Ever considered that, Mark from California? Who wears the trousers? You?

I thought you were in control here, Madam Cate. Can't answer, even retort to a simple suggestion by a mere Male, a simpleton, a mere peasant like me?

The qualified doctor said to my niece she had 'Borderline Personality Disorder' as if she meant something. Her mother (the doctor's) used to play with her daughter's genitals until she was six. After that she ignored her. Now the doctor scares young Womyn with classifications, fake love and pathetic empty intellect.

She only adds to my niece's wounds.

Gotta thank Smooth, Gold and Light and a bit of Triple M for the delicious music they serve up day after day. It really is most appreciated. Thank you.

Y'know I put 'Mandy' by Barry Manilow on. I think of a girl - Mandy - of a brief affair we had when I was 14. A year or two ago I would not be revealing this to you. I only downloaded it last year and only under a mountain of guilt and doubt; I punished myself, wasn't I supposed to be in love with Jackie? How could I? I was disgusting, just bad. I felt like that - wrong and bad - for so many years. So very long. I think I repented for repenting! For such a long time I hated myself, tried to die 3 times. I was repulsive. Repented for my 11 hospitalisations in psych wards. Sometimes, when a song like Mandy would come on at home, in my car, in a ward, there was a spark in my memory. I'd remember kissing her, feeling her breasts, and laughing. It only lasted a minute or so but I hung on to it for days. Mandy made me happy. She was from Eltham, me Doncaster. Once I caught a train to see her. She would smile, it lit up the whole place. I played it last night and Smooth tonight. Funny that. I play it now. And I thank 'Blossom' - that is what I called her - for enriching my youth; just for her warmth, and her smile.

Leonard Cohen I accept your 'thank you'.

You are the only person courageous enough to 'say' it.

Cheers brother.

You got the guts, Womyn?
