... rumor has it that one of our blender regulars has topped the list at achase.com again this month. This time deevaa has taken out the fine art section, following on from terry's win last month.
The masterpiece in question?

I hadn't seen Jack or Gala's mentions either, they are easier to find by going here....http://www.achase.com/book/poetry.htm
My mention is on the front page, but the painting isn't linked in as yet.

Misti ~ I didn't know you were kim wu! Dammit girl, I was missing your other personality. Sigh.
Joey; ok so you were funny in three and four but now you sound threatning and obsessive, give it up!
Michael~
You really didn't know? I thought I went on the Board and revealed myself! I'm sorry. A lot of people liked Kim. She was a kinder, funnier me. Ha!
Chris~
I'm putting off getting ready for work. I want to stay in bed with you all morning and play! I love your newest submission, darling. Now I'm going to take a hot shower and hope that wakes me up since the milk was sour and I couldn't have my cup of coffee. Hope you have a great day! See ya at lunch!
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx your Misti xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
To Cee and Ali,
Thanks for the compliments on my work.... in particular "Academy Award". The internet provides so many new lessons to learn.
It is not difficult to discover too many similarities between various posters/poets/poseurs if you pay a little closer attention. Even though some of us are entertained by it all (except maybe some of the poorer poetry), it does get old after a while, begging the question - why the games?
To Gardenguru,
I really enjoyed your "But I Luvvvv Him".
You showed great insite on the matter of love. You certainly made me think... and made some confusing thoughts very clear. I believe you have a lot of common sense. Thanks for sharing your logical comments.
.....
To Dark Angel,
Your work "Dawning Hope" was absolutely beautiful. You wrote so eloquently in this piece. I could see the mist rising off the water, I could hear the plaintif cry of the bird, I could feel the emptiness of the moment. I have read other pieces that you wrote and you show great feeling in everything you write. Your phrases stir the soul.
Thanks for sharing....
Can you see me look at me love golden bands across our bed and everrything you ever dreamed of I wouldn't say i miss you....but the love i have for you last to the day i DIE....one love markie dee
markie dee you are talented beyond compare
Hey All,
Well, yup---our Artist In A Wiggling has scored top honors over at A. Chase.com...That's awesome---first Terry get a book---then a gallery---now Dee! They must like our style! And thank you feathered friends who pointed out about Jack and I as well---I had not been notified, and didn't know about the honorable mention till I went there looking for Dee's stuff.
Proud of you, Dee! You Go Girl!
Terry~ I'm very sorry about your loss...And your latest poem was great! Wonderfull, dearie...
Dark Angel~ Your writing continues to amaze me...
Love and dreams, Ali
dee ~ thanks for sharing the photo. I see your beautiful son in the both of you.
argh... I want to point out that 6 years and 35kg have been lost since that photo was taken!!!
Harem --
Thanks for the kind words. I think. I'm not sure everyone feels that "common sense" and "logical comments" have anything to do with love.
Syn O'Nymous --
I hate games, too. What is your real name/handle?
one good thing to say to a woman or your girlfreind is "Did it hurt? did it? when u fell from heaven" and "Do u have a quortore becuase my mom said if i see a angwl i have to call her"
bye
gardenguru: I don't like mind games close to home but here in the blender it's fun. There are some people who could never fool you and others that have such a rich imagination that they can take on other voices which I think is quite cool. There are sites that prohibit this by making you sign in under one name and dare you otherwise (you get banned forever,,lol) Kirk gives us freedoms here that other places would go nuts with,thanks to his wide view of life..Thanks Kirk
Terry: Darlin, You have no idea how much I have missed your voice here. 'Theres No Place Like Home' was wonderful. More please..(heavy sigh)
Chris: I see Patti Page or Dorris Day singing 'Secret Love' way before Freddie...lol and probably even someone before that..its an old song. Neat to see a timeless song like that again.
deevaa; What beautiful smiling faces in the picture. Thanks for sharing with us.

Another good thing to say to a woman: "Are u cold? Are you u cold? ...Now that you've escaped from Hell?" :)
BK I'm sorry you think I'm getting obsessive. My sense of humor sometimes resembles the Sahara (uh...dry). The object of my affection knows I'm kidding (I think) and that's all that matters. What I write is somewhere between deadly serious and tongue-in-cheek. You figure out where. I give readers a challenge, should they choose to take it...LOL.
BK I like you. You're a good voice on this Board.
B.K.:
I see, said the blind man.
I've read through a lot of poems here and I've seen some real talent in some people who can express themselves. However, where are some of these ideas for poems coming from? Telling us about your adulterous affairs, and having pride in such things. Where is the shame? I've heard your definition of the word "love" and I don't see it. When does true love hurt? For isn't the opposite act of love that hurts you? Yet the cliche that love hurts still burns in minds. So I pose the question do you know what love is? Love is an action... and though I hear the word love through these writings I ask.. what action proves there is love in these situations? I haven't read every single poem in here, but the ones I have... there is no sign of love in them. Please find a real definition of love and write on it.. for it burdens my soul to hear the four letter word taken out of context through acts of immorality and lust. Here's the best def. I could find...1 Corinthians 13: 4-7 read it in the bible sometime... it shows exactly what love should be.
I do believe.. no, I definitely believe I need to see more poems by "the shark"...truly unique
TheDubalPoet:
I haven't read every single scripture in the Bible, but I've noticed that slavery was sanctioned and carefully regulated by many passages. Yet I do not judge the entire work as needing revision.
There are talents, indeed, in this collection of humanity called the Love Blender, many wonderfully real in their expressions from the heart and soul. Yes, some are pained, some are confused. But all are human. And most (probably not I) write of true love as well as the finest poets from the times before Christ to the current day. I believe that.
Read many more of the poems within. It will do your own heart good.
Harem--you're simply awesome
and to the one who said that true love doesn't hurt...you're absolutely right...the passage in Corinthians
is one of my favorites...the only time love hurts, is when the time comes for it to leave you...and even then, time helps to heal the wounds...but, yes indeed, love-even true love-can sometimes hurt...
oh yes, I think everyone submitting poetry and prose in this big blender have some beautiful talents!!!!!!!
ps..hope I can say all this being I'm a first timer and all...hee, hee...
Dark Angel,
