Leonard Cohen once said to me

"who are you? Please go away before I call the Fuzz*".

In many ways this summed up our relationship. I stalked him for years and he had absolutely no interest in me. His use of the quaint English slang nomenclature for the Police surprised me as neither of us are English and, afaik, he has never been to England.

Still, I wanted to share this with you as it truly was a beautiful moment!

The Fuzz. Definition from the Urban Dictionary
The fuzz is a word used when your so frikkin high that when the cops come to bust your ass that u call them the fuzz because the crack and chron are blurring your vision.
"Oh shit Flaco we got the fuzz on our tails".

Hello, you must be new here. This is a tribute site to the artist Leonard Cohen who is no longer touring. Here in Norway it is considered good manners to introduce yourself when you enter a conversation. Perhaps you will return after you reflect on your rather shocking conduct

Hey B., my apologies if I broke with the social conventions you are accustomed to.
I'm afraid I had a post traumatic reaction to your name and forgot my manors. Many years ago I lived with some cult members whose leader was a purple dinosaur or alien that sent them messages through the t.v. at all hours of the day.

Hello, I confess that my attitude has changed since you mentioned that you own several large Tudor country houses with extensive land. I wonder if you are Lady of the Manor and is your wealth inherited or self-made? I know this is rather forward of me but if we became friends would you share your wealth with me? This interests me far more than superficial things like poetry or music.


with highest regards and respectings

Thank you for your respectings B and Happy Victoria Day from Canada, a holiday based on solely on the Leonard Cohen tune. As for you question, I'd say I'm self made. I work as an editor for one of the leading dyslexic literary magazines - Poe-It-Tree. Despite your creepy name you seem like a pleasant enough person. If you ever need a place to crash I do have a manor (a little castle actually) tucked away in the back pages of the poetry section.

fair enough, but do you have the combined artistic and data competence to expertly digitise a leonard cohen album cover between breakfast and lunch like me? no, i don't believe you do. don't take that the wrong way, though, as i am - and i say this in all modesty - probably the only person on this planet capable of performing such a feat. this is why leonard worshipped me.
