SOME DAY SOON I PREDICT KWILLIS WILL GO ON ABOUT DOUGHNUTS

[kwills]

That's it, my have eyes have finally gone!

[Juan Juanders]

Oh the eyes do bleed blur and water, but marisha's words on the rat again I can follow...I comprehend those words quite well...well, a large portion of them anyway...

With all the newcomers to the poetry forum, all nice and polite, and Leonard-loving, and... well, serious, do you think perhaps we're getting a dubious reputation? I mean, we all know what girls just wanna have, right? And we love Leonard too, right? and anyway he's been quite a fun-lover (I chose that hyphen carefully) in his time...

I.F., I can speak only for myself when I say: polite newcomers- perhaps, nice- never!! I favour the idea that you can probably get away with saying anything you want if you do so in as respectfully and politely a way as one may. I think a dubious reputation is a fabulous thing, not bad at all. Do you know, I've never heard a Leonard album? ....................................................... And now, to borrow the words of another poster I admire, I really have stepped into the avalanche, and fear a little for my safety....

[Teratogen]

Damn. It still refers to me as a "she."

[imaginary friend]

Never fear Tera,

WE know you are all man. Marisha has a crush on you, I think - watch out!

XO

[Violet]

Ahem..

Yes, this is Ms. Violet M. Peabody here, our resident (covert) Mistress Programmer, or just plain resident Schoolmarm, as you prefer.. And yes, I do still have my red pen out..

Now, before I go any further, I'd like to dispel any false preconceptions you may have about schoolmarms.. We are not old and cold and ornery. And although I may wear my white (slightly sheer and flowy) high-collared blouse buttoned up to the very tippy top of my lovely, long white neck, still, this only has a teasing way of enhancing the fact that I happen to posses that certain lurking.. latent sensuality.. that only a slightly "buttoned up," schoolmarmish persona can exude.. Certainly, it's an aura that you brits out there especially seem to be very much drawn to.. I mean, given your nation's fairly recent "love affair" with one Margaret Thatcher (which was most obviously a case of not-so-latent nanny worship)* (and not just in my opinion either, and yet that's the only opinion that really should count here.. I should think).. (I mean, after all, I am the resident Schoolmarm)..

.. okay.. now onto the point of my address to you all..

Now, Mr. Marisha.. it has come to this particular schoolmarm's (fairly divided, as it happens) attention, that you have.. let's see, how do I put this.. okay.. as opposed employing just boring ol' plagiarism (preferred though it may be by at least one [presently serving] American vice president, for example) it seems you have chosen instead to seek out some dubiously conceived of computer software, capable of spatting out interminable volumes of fairly random seeming, yet somehow eccentric sounding, though highly circular, as it happens, verbiage, let's call it, which.. blah blah blah blah blah, etc., etc.. [sorry, but the thought of having to finish my thought suddenly bored me to tears]..

Anyway, I just wanted to be sure to bring this matter to the attention of, well, hopefully most of you here, as I find this a highly laudable maneuver on the part of Mr. Marisha, exemplifying the very essence of ahacademic and soso-social life here at -- well, however you'd like to characterize this place.

So.. without much further ado (which is saying a lot, coming from me).. I'd like to present to all of you (and on a first come first serve basis) a new limited edition of our own Mr. Marisha's latest contribution, done up in bronze, of course, and so therefore very collectible..

In so speaking, I say TO YOU ALL: ENJOY!!!..

* I'd note here how nanny worship, in the brit sexual menagerie of not-so-latent tendencies, is really right next door, if you will, to schoolmarm obsession.. (sorry if this is too obvious a qualification for some, but I wanted to "cover all my bases," as it were.. which is itself a proclivity that grants to the (covertly seductive) schoolmarm the, um, hard won designation of.. cock tease)..

.. oh, please note that Mr. Marisha will be present to bronze his own (questionable) autograph for you at a cyber-signing to be held at a site of his own choosing, this to be announced.. blah blah blah.. etc. etc.. oh, and "real" coffee and donuts.. or tea and crumpets, as you prefer.. will be available in the cyber lobby.. (realizing once again how Leonard works here in very mysterious ways, which of course doesn't stop at refreshments)..

Congratulations to Mrs. Teratogen Reveals Shock Truth About These Posts With Analytical Brilliance That No-One Else Could Have Managed Without His Help, Now We Must All Go Look For His Sense Of Humour for saying that she is always being misrepresented and/or persecuted. That honestly wins the prize for being the most pigheaded and repressive thing I've ever heard. First off, her assault on free speech was not mounted in a few weeks. Rather, it evolved gradually over a much longer period of time, barely perceptible in its origins and benefiting from a gradualism that provoked little awareness, much less any real reaction. That's why it is now the time to lift our nation from the quicksand of injustice to the solid rock of brotherhood. Her fierce passions and fiendish cunning, combined with abnormal powers of intellect, with intense vitality, and with a persistency of purpose which the world has rarely seen, and whetted moreover by a keen thirst for blood engendered by defeat and subjection, combine to make Teratogen Reveals Shock Truth About These Posts With Analytical Brilliance That No-One Else Could Have Managed Without His Help, Now We Must All Go Look For His Sense Of Humour the deadly enemy of all mankind, while her intransigent, bilious tracts contribute to inflame her wild lust of pelf, and to justify the crimes suggested by spite and superstition.

Teratogen Reveals Shock Truth About These Posts With Analytical Brilliance That No-One Else Could Have Managed Without His Help, Now We Must All Go Look For His Sense Of Humour is guilty of at least one criminal offense. In addition, she frequently exhibits less formal criminal behavior such as deliberate and even gleeful cruelty, explosive behavior, and a burning desire to carve out space in the mainstream for fork-tongued politics. Her primary goal is to prepare the ground for an ever-more vicious and brutal campaign of terror. All of her other objectives are secondary to this one supreme purpose. That's why you must always remember that you won't find many of Teratogen Reveals Shock Truth About These Posts With Analytical Brilliance That No-One Else Could Have Managed Without His Help, Now We Must All Go Look For His Sense Of Humour's associates who will openly admit that they favor Teratogen Reveals Shock Truth About These Posts With Analytical Brilliance That No-One Else Could Have Managed Without His Help, Now We Must All Go Look For His Sense Of Humour's schemes to assuage the hungers of her forces with servings of fresh scapegoats. In fact, their histrionics are characterized by a plethora of rhetoric to the contrary. If you listen closely, though, you'll hear how carefully they cover up the fact that Teratogen Reveals Shock Truth About These Posts With Analytical Brilliance That No-One Else Could Have Managed Without His Help, Now We Must All Go Look For His Sense Of Humour maintains that her frightful crime syndicate is a benign and charitable agency. This is complete—or at least, incomplete—baloney. For instance, Teratogen Reveals Shock Truth About These Posts With Analytical Brilliance That No-One Else Could Have Managed Without His Help, Now We Must All Go Look For His Sense Of Humour fails to mention that people often get the impression that the worst types of brain-damaged spouters I've ever seen and Teratogen Reveals Shock Truth About These Posts With Analytical Brilliance That No-One Else Could Have Managed Without His Help, Now We Must All Go Look For His Sense Of Humour's dupes are separate entities. Not so. When one catches cold, the other sneezes. As proof, note that if Marxism were an Olympic sport, Teratogen Reveals Shock Truth About These Posts With Analytical Brilliance That No-One Else Could Have Managed Without His Help, Now We Must All Go Look For His Sense Of Humour would clinch the gold medal.

Even without the bleeding-heart ideology of teetotalism in the picture, we can still say that the real question here is not, "How can Teratogen Reveals Shock Truth About These Posts With Analytical Brilliance That No-One Else Could Have Managed Without His Help, Now We Must All Go Look For His Sense Of Humour mobilize support for the special interests that dominate state and private activity and then turn around and shed tears for those who got hurt as a result?". The real question is rather, "How will her intimates react when they discover that she wants to adopt approaches that have not been tested to try to solve problems that have not been well-defined?" In classic sophist fashion, I ask another question in reply: How can someone who claims to be so educated and so open-minded dare to make empty promises? It would take days to give the complete answer to that question but the gist of it is that Teratogen Reveals Shock Truth About These Posts With Analytical Brilliance That No-One Else Could Have Managed Without His Help, Now We Must All Go Look For His Sense Of Humour has planted her collaborators everywhere. You can find them in businesses, unions, activist organizations, tax-exempt foundations, professional societies, movies, schools, churches, and so on. Not only does this subversive approach enhance Teratogen Reveals Shock Truth About These Posts With Analytical Brilliance That No-One Else Could Have Managed Without His Help, Now We Must All Go Look For His Sense Of Humour's ability to violate her pledge not to exclude all people and proposals that oppose her baleful recommendations, but it also provides irrefutable evidence that I've tried to explain to her jealous legates that repeating something over and over does not make it true. As could be expected, they were a bit slow on the uptake. I just couldn't get them to comprehend that Teratogen Reveals Shock Truth About These Posts With Analytical Brilliance That No-One Else Could Have Managed Without His Help, Now We Must All Go Look For His Sense Of Humour will probably never understand why she scares me so much. And she unmistakably does scare me: Her views are scary, her viewpoints are scary, and most of all, her sympathizers argue that we can trust her not to torment, harry, and persecute anyone who crosses her path. These are the same witless slaves to fashion who change children's values from those taught in the home to those considered chic by dodgy stirrers. This is no coincidence; Teratogen Reveals Shock Truth About These Posts With Analytical Brilliance That No-One Else Could Have Managed Without His Help, Now We Must All Go Look For His Sense Of Humour keeps trying to operate in the gray area between legitimate activity and rotten adversarialism. And if we don't remain eternally vigilant, she will truly succeed. No one that I speak with or correspond with is happy about this situation. Of course, I don't speak or correspond with conceited polluters, Teratogen Reveals Shock Truth About These Posts With Analytical Brilliance That No-One Else Could Have Managed Without His Help, Now We Must All Go Look For His Sense Of Humour's lickspittles, or anyone else who fails to realize that "complacent" hardly seems like a strong enough word to describe Teratogen Reveals Shock Truth About These Posts With Analytical Brilliance That No-One Else Could Have Managed Without His Help, Now We Must All Go Look For His Sense Of Humour. And here, I aver, lies a clue to the intellectual vacuum so gapingly apparent in Teratogen Reveals Shock Truth About These Posts With Analytical Brilliance That No-One Else Could Have Managed Without His Help, Now We Must All Go Look For His Sense Of Humour's jokes.

Unsettling as that is, the more infuriating fact is that at no time in the past did the most flippant curmudgeons you'll ever see shamble through the streets of cities, demanding rights they imagine some supernatural power has bestowed upon them. Whenever I turn around I see Teratogen Reveals Shock Truth About These Posts With Analytical Brilliance That No-One Else Could Have Managed Without His Help, Now We Must All Go Look For His Sense Of Humour increasing society's cycle of hostility and violence. To deny such a truth would be to deny the evidence of our own senses. It would be charitable of me not to mention that it would be a work of supererogation to offer true constructive criticism—listening to the whole issue, recognizing the problems, recognizing what is being done right, and getting involved to help remedy the problem—at a time when every week there transpires news of ridiculous bullies following Teratogen Reveals Shock Truth About These Posts With Analytical Brilliance That No-One Else Could Have Managed Without His Help, Now We Must All Go Look For His Sense Of Humour's orders to stir up class hatred. Fortunately, I am not beset by a spirit of false charity so I will instead maintain that if you're not part of the solution then you're part of the problem.

Of course, if I hear Teratogen Reveals Shock Truth About These Posts With Analytical Brilliance That No-One Else Could Have Managed Without His Help, Now We Must All Go Look For His Sense Of Humour's assistants say, "War is peace, freedom is slavery, and ignorance is strength" one more time, I'm going to throw up. It's possible that acrimonious cheapskates are unable to see that I indeed find Teratogen Reveals Shock Truth About These Posts With Analytical Brilliance That No-One Else Could Have Managed Without His Help, Now We Must All Go Look For His Sense Of Humour more irritating than a hair shirt. However, I cannot speculate about that possibility here because I need to devote more space to a description of how I am not up on the latest gossip. Still, I have heard people say that if my own experience has taught me anything, it's that if one believes statements like, "Going through the motions of working is the same as working," one is, in effect, supporting malodorous slobs.

Teratogen Reveals Shock Truth About These Posts With Analytical Brilliance That No-One Else Could Have Managed Without His Help, Now We Must All Go Look For His Sense Of Humour, please spare us the angst of living in a fallen world. I feel that writing this letter is like celestial navigation. Before directional instruments were invented, sailors navigated the seas by fixing their compass on the North Star. However, if Teratogen Reveals Shock Truth About These Posts With Analytical Brilliance That No-One Else Could Have Managed Without His Help, Now We Must All Go Look For His Sense Of Humour were to trick them into fixing their compass on the wrong star they'd soon be so off-course that they'd actually be willing to help her organize a whispering campaign against me. She keeps telling us that all any child needs is a big dose of television every day. Are we also supposed to believe that she is able to abrogate the natural order of effects flowing from causes? I didn't think so.

Teratogen Reveals Shock Truth About These Posts With Analytical Brilliance That No-One Else Could Have Managed Without His Help, Now We Must All Go Look For His Sense Of Humour must think that being hideous entitles one to create a world without history, without philosophy, without science, without reason—a world without beauty of any kind, without art, without literature, without culture. While it is not my purpose to incriminate or exculpate or vindicate or castigate, the big parlor game among her legatees is guessing which of them was the first to monopolize the press. To top that off, when I was a child my clergyman told me, "Teratogen Reveals Shock Truth About These Posts With Analytical Brilliance That No-One Else Could Have Managed Without His Help, Now We Must All Go Look For His Sense Of Humour's codices are devoid of any intellectual substance." If you think about it you'll see his point. Teratogen Reveals Shock Truth About These Posts With Analytical Brilliance That No-One Else Could Have Managed Without His Help, Now We Must All Go Look For His Sense Of Humour has been fairly successful in her efforts to create a factitious demand for her hostile calumnies. That just goes to show what can be done with a little greed, a complete lack of scruples, and the help of a bunch of disingenuous vulgarians.

Even though Teratogen Reveals Shock Truth About These Posts With Analytical Brilliance That No-One Else Could Have Managed Without His Help, Now We Must All Go Look For His Sense Of Humour has aired her disapproval of being criticized, I still maintain that if the only way to strengthen our roots so we can weather the storms that threaten our foundation is for me to get fired from my job, then so be it. It would unquestionably be worth it because Teratogen Reveals Shock Truth About These Posts With Analytical Brilliance That No-One Else Could Have Managed Without His Help, Now We Must All Go Look For His Sense Of Humour argues that men are spare parts in the social repertoire—mere optional extras. I wish I could suggest some incontrovertible chain of apodictic reasoning that would overcome this argument, but the best I can do is the following: Today, we might have let her visit misery and havoc upon countless millions. Tomorrow, we won't. Instead, we will inculcate in the reader an inquisitive spirit and a skepticism about beliefs that Teratogen Reveals Shock Truth About These Posts With Analytical Brilliance That No-One Else Could Have Managed Without His Help, Now We Must All Go Look For His Sense Of Humour's operatives take for granted. Ignorance is bliss. This may be why Teratogen Reveals Shock Truth About These Posts With Analytical Brilliance That No-One Else Could Have Managed Without His Help, Now We Must All Go Look For His Sense Of Humour's toadies are generally all smiles.

I claim that Teratogen Reveals Shock Truth About These Posts With Analytical Brilliance That No-One Else Could Have Managed Without His Help, Now We Must All Go Look For His Sense Of Humour has had some success in turning positions of leadership into positions of complacency. I find that horrifying and frightening but we all should have seen it coming. We all knew that Teratogen Reveals Shock Truth About These Posts With Analytical Brilliance That No-One Else Could Have Managed Without His Help, Now We Must All Go Look For His Sense Of Humour repeats the term "characteristicalness" over and over again in everything she writes. Is this repetition part of some new drinking game, or is Teratogen Reveals Shock Truth About These Posts With Analytical Brilliance That No-One Else Could Have Managed Without His Help, Now We Must All Go Look For His Sense Of Humour merely trying to confuse us into believing that simplism is the key to world peace? First, I'll give you a very brief answer, and then I'll go back and explain my answer in detail. As for the brief answer, to believe that a plausible excuse is a satisfactory substitute for performance is to deceive ourselves.

I apologize if what I'm saying sounds painfully obvious, painfully self-evident. However, it is so extremely important that I must surely say it. Regardless of the theoretical beauty of the notion that we're still a long way from being able to address a number of important issues, there is the opposing fact that Teratogen Reveals Shock Truth About These Posts With Analytical Brilliance That No-One Else Could Have Managed Without His Help, Now We Must All Go Look For His Sense Of Humour says that she is a bearer and agent of the Creator's purpose. As usual, she can be counted on to wrap every actual fact in six layers of embellishment. The truth is that I'm simply trying to explain Teratogen Reveals Shock Truth About These Posts With Analytical Brilliance That No-One Else Could Have Managed Without His Help, Now We Must All Go Look For His Sense Of Humour's deceitful tendencies as well as her grungy tendencies as phases of a larger, unified cycle. Still, I recommend you check out some of Teratogen Reveals Shock Truth About These Posts With Analytical Brilliance That No-One Else Could Have Managed Without His Help, Now We Must All Go Look For His Sense Of Humour's politics and draw your own conclusions on the matter. Let us now indicate in a rough and approximate way the two unregenerate tendencies that I believe are the main driving force of modern barbarism because in that is our only hope for the future.

edits: as per my post below, I've gone bonkers with these edits tonight.. first, just as my beloved Georgeszez was arriving on the scene (which I'm still all tingly about, actually), and then at this later time slot, since I have obviously lost all control of normal forum functioning, which probably shouldn't include such overly obsessive editing practices, even though such tendency (for those new to these regions) has been known to be a "violetish proclivity" for a very, very long time -- so, this ain't no news flash, in other words... o.k., signing off for now.. finally.. I hope.. v.

.. my gosh.. I can't believe I've added one more tweak... this morning.. and this, after last night's serious spate of insomnia-inspired.. oh, never mind..

.. oh, and now with my late-afternoon tea, a few more little tweaks.. (actually, your lordship, I do hope you appreciate your being "bronzed")..

very last edit: I decided to visit this post one last time (I hope).. and yes, tonight I made one more minor tweak, and added one more fairly unimportant parenthetical clause.. it's either that, or I re-write the whole damn thing at this point..

Signed,
Ms. Violet M. Peabody [done up in bronze]..


much later edit: again, I must apologize for some, well, wordiness.. what can I say... sleep deprivation can cause us all to start sounding like Marisha's tirades, and so she is actually quite instructive in that way.. anyway, a few snip snips, and I'm again feeling much relieved..

[George.Wright]

My dearest Violet,
I always warned you not to parry words with that scoundrel Lord M of One. I have had to come out of retirement to protect you, my dear lady. Anyways, Georges is back and after your hand ( and more ) again.

Your lovely lover, Sir Georges xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx.

[Violet]

Georges??????????... my one and only truest truest (dankish) and deepest love for all of eternity.. (meaning a very very long time).. etc., etc.. and more????.. you caught me in the act of copiously correcting (in my obsessively schoolmarmish manner) that last post, the fine red print of which was torturing me just terribly..

... might you join me for another romp at Colonial Suicide, my darkish Irish knight of the flagrantly flying* white steed???..

... I'm overwhelmed, it seems.. and should probably take off this schoolmarmish outfit, grab my silver bikini, and take off with you ASAP..

.. [to be continued, I hope.. at C.S.. the land of the brazen.. and home of the cake sometimes referred to as cheese]..

Your stunned and amazed (truly touched.. and now.. well, touching herself)..
v i o l e t (flower).. xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx x xxx xxxxxxxx
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx x xxx x x x xxxxxxxxxxxx x x x
x xx xxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx x x x
x xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx x xx x xx x (you still have it my love).. xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx x xxx
xxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxx xxxxxxxxxxx xxx (wait.. I have one more paper to correct).. xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx x x x x x
x x xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx x x x xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx x x
x xxxxxxxxxxxxxx x x (oh, what the hay, Mr. M. can wait).. xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx x x x
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx x xx x x x xxx


* note (from a derelict schoolmarm): now, I realize that "flagrantly flying" has got to be some form of improper usage, but I can't help liking it, and anyway, sometimes alliteration trumps correct grammar.. (just ask dankish-darkish Georges).. (zez)..

[shaz]

I don't read very much, i listen to songs for guidance in my life.
I am glad I don't read much now, for I would think to be disheartened by all this.

All I can say, is, that creative people obviously come here with open hearts,
in a space where they may express themselves, hopefully in safety.
Should the creative space become political and egoistically controlled, by either the moderator, or,
the would be controller, then the safe place is very dangerous for the innocent open minded,
and generous spirited people who share their work here.

Shame is all i will say for the thread that should have been taken down.

Three cheers to that Shaz !! At last a bit of sanity emerges !!

[Violet]

.. um.. excuse me, gentleman (although I'm not too sure of the gender of "Shaz," so I'm assuming here).. anyway, for my part, this is all done in the spirit of entertainment and fun, and moving some words around (in a colorful sort of way).. and yes, his Lordship -- uh, Marisha -- DOES provide the necessary "aggravant" for those of a certain mindset to create what I hope to be a few "pearls" of text (or at least in the comedy department), but then that's according to the eye of the beholder.. STILL.. you both seem to be missing the fun spirit.. if you saw that you'd see that I, and others like me, also come here with an open heart, and with a mind toward play, and I have never sought to banish anything done here in that vein (or, for my part, anything at all), the way you two just have done.. so.. it's just a matter of opening your minds a little too..

sincerely,
v i o l e t


much later edit: I originally had signed this: "sincerely, and with a fun loving and open heart".. and yet.. given subsequent events outside of this particular thread, not involving the good lad from yorkshire, mind you.. but.. um.. anyway, thought to leave it at "sincerely"..

[Marisha]

wow! did I really read that some people want this thread taken down. how small a life can such sour people "enjoy".

[Violet]

Ahem..

I just wanted to point out that I just added a new and exciting flourish to my masterful [copiously edited] "bronzed" based post.. (two posts of mine ago, in other words)..

As the story goes.. I was looking over what all the fuss must surely be about today (thinking I must be missing something damning, for sure), and realized I'd neglected to take care of at least one more fanciful diversionary tack.. (this, much to my alarm, of course).. Anyway, class, as you will all be tested on this.. (either that, or you will be bronzed [yes, thanks to the new technology, we can do that now (unbeknownst to you) while you're asleep at your computers, so please be forewarned] [oh, and stay awake in (cyber) class, obviously]).. now what was I saying??.. oh, that, as you will all be tested on this at some point.. maybe at Mr. Marisha's cyber signing event, which Cate has promised to host, and so the location is at least (somewhat) a subset of the ever beguiling.. (slightly chilling).. and yet somehow sexually alluring.. (in a kinky sort of way, I mean).. ROYAL BRITISH EMPIRE (I always wanted to see that done up in bronze, actually).. now what was I.. oh, so study up, kiddies..

Still with her Wicked Red Pen out,

Ms. Violet M. Peabody


much later comment: this notification, outside of the cyber-signing info., no longer pertains, as I tidied up the section I was all in a froth about.. so.. please be advised..

[imaginary friend]

Shaz and Yorkshire,

I can only imagine that as Violet said, you have misunderstood the lighthearted intent behind this thread. Would you care to elaborate on what it is you find here that we, the participants, should be ashamed of?

[Cate]

well Yorkshire Lad is a regular poster and therefor should be beaten from head to toe with a fly swatter for encouraging the odd ramblings of this Shaz.

All I can say, is, that creative people obviously come here with open hearts,
in a space where they may express themselves, hopefully in safety.
Should the creative space become political and egoistically controlled, by either the moderator, or,
the would be controller, then the safe place is very dangerous for the innocent open minded,

Shame is all i will say for the thread that should have been taken down.

She seems to be contradicting herself. Perhaps she just means a space for some people to express themselves but sadly she hasn't told us exactly which type of person may post or which subjects they may post on or in what way they may be creative. Good god woman - how can you possibly expect people to be creative on there own if you don't leave specific criteria.

now gossip wise, video clip
from a rally held not to long ago... I'm a bit concerned that Marisha is rallying her troops as we type.

Cate, who is in her Nations capital with hubbie and kids, last day here

[kwills]

There was weird man called Marisha
Who came all the way just to tease ya,
She stirred things up
In a bittersweet cup
And laughed all the way to Sardonica.


Hey,this thread was only meant for some fun,though it affected my eyes a bit!
