Right-o. I agree. ANYWAY....Jon, how's the weather in your corner of the world?
-Teej
(Yay, Kirk!! Holy shit! How incredibly well put!)
TJ~Anyway, it's raining over here in my part of the world. I just washed my car today and I refuse to go outside. I wash my car once every full moon I'm not about to let some rain ruin everything. :-)
Misti~As always I love your work and Certainty just makes me love your work even more. So you work/ed for AOL Tech Support? Hmm, maybe you were that really nice lady that helped me. ;-)
Take care and all that Spring-Break-Is-Coming-Up-And-I-Won't-Have-To-Look-At-Another-Book-For-An-Entire-Blissful-Lazy-Week.
Jon
Hey Jon...
If you want a book to read for pure pleasure, check out Savage Beauty---the new book on Edna St. Vincent Millay...GREAT STUFF.
And Misti---if you like, I'll loan yu mine when I'm done...
Lydia~things you should know was so great! I loved reading every line! You certainly have my applause!
Misty~You seem to be a very happy person, crongratulations! And I mean that from the bottom of my heart....not all of us are fortunate to have that. I hope you always keep that joy!
Jon~Just keep writing was so very sweet! I really do hope you find the love of your life and that she treats you as wonderful as you will her. You deserve it!!! But, hun, not all of the "good girls" are gone, there are still a few of us left just waiting for our prince to come. ;)
Take care all!
Jennifer

Just Keep Writing is one of the most beautiful things I've read. Way to go man
Thanks, Jon. I always enjoy reading your poems. I especially like Say You'll Stay. No, I applied at AOL on Monday and received a rejection letter on Saturday. I knew I would fail the personality test even as I was taking it. I was honest. "I'm an outgoing person." I answered "disagree." "I anger easily." I answered "agree." I really didn't want to work for such a big corporation. Yesterday I e-mailed my resume to Glamour Shots for a makeup artist position and tomorrow I'm applying for a dance instructor position.
Gala, you are the absolute awesomest! I'd heard about that bio before. I'd love to borrow it from ya!
Jennifer, funny you should say that. I'm taking Celexa for depression. But thanks for the kind words.
Kirk, I know there's no way to filter out all of the plagiarized submissions. But my suggestion is that when someone gets called on it the piece should be taken off the Corner. I know that I'm one of the reasons the new system is in place and I am very sorry for that. I really do appreciate and admire all the work you have put in to the Blender.
Jack~,
as i wait..., and moment eternal... are so amazing...Beautifully done, my dear...*smile* Great writing...
Love and vanilla breezes, Ali
Thanks to those few of you that have made comments to me in the past days.
I appreciate it
Ophelia, please spare us the reposting of previous posted material. We saw it the first time. Although only a small incremental expense, I conceptually resent paying to host the same material twice so you can make a non-existent point: you are a nexus of negativity on the board, and it's not a coincidence, and it's not really the fault of the other people on the board: like the "Demotivator" says, "The Only Consistent Feature Of All Of Your Dissatisfying Relationships Is You."
Ophelia, I just wanted to point out in the message you posted..."a constant negativity on this site" like people randomly posting "You are all idiots." as a friggin' survey response? "nasty ugly comments" like "Who died and left you the only bull dyke in charge of the psycho ward shit stalls"?
At least try to avoid comments that blow themselves up...the irony is thick, in both the real and Alanis senses of the word.
Hmmm... why do I get the very strong feeling that Ophelia has one nut????
And Gala ~ you continue to amaze me... the latest personality you've been awarded is that of a bull dyke? Truly, you are capable of anything :-)
Jackryhme~as i wait... moment eternal... and of dust... were great! Wonderful expressions! My applause and congradulations!
Take care,
Jennifer
scqueen ~ I was thinking about Oafyliacks nuts too. But I don't think she's OneNut. At least, if she is then ol' Jimmy has gone to great lengths to create a slut-e image on-line in the dark little porn world. Can't disagree that they both have severe sociopathic issues, and tend to obsess about people they don't know, and go on these useless, time wasting rants, but being one and the same....hmmmm. Now THAT would really indicate a lack of 'a life'.
TJ ~ In your line of work, you should not be surprised if somebody did go to such lengths! I just have this gut feeling... how sad.
Okay...
I don't believe I have my fangs and/or nails sharpened to comment on Ofeelingless (mostly because I refuse to let her noise affect my good times here)so I'll just quietly make my observations...
TJ Everything and Nothing was very cool. I love the last lines...
Jon, Consolation Prize...how many times I have wanted to use those words! Nice.
love and the i can't write to save my life right now blues...
the kylie girl
Well I'm a polish Dyke...I love men!
And anyone who made that comment doesn't read that well...since my poetry tends to be in praise, delight, or down right adoration of the male sex, specific and general!
Gala
Kylie girl...you have class.
Ok SC...shall I cook up a challenge?
This message is for Jennifer.....
Thank you for commenting on my Life Poem. I wrote that poem, which pretty much refects my life. It made me so happy to hear someone else knows the feeling. All the poems I have submitted under Hippygreen except one have been written by me.
Thanks again :)
Gala ~ What the hell, let the challenge cooking begin!
umm did someone mention cooking?
Akash~ Presence... is beautiful in its simplicity. I'm a fan of those who can say what they need to say in a few short words. Nicely executed. ~Vi
No, Jack, nobody's cooking, now you're going to get BK all fired up :-)
Ok...Cooking One Oh One...
Gala's challenge...write a recipe for your honey...you must use at least FIVE cooking terms...extra points given if it actually LOOKS like a recipe...
Can be anything about your sweetheart...but cooking terms are a must!
I will s sub a sample, but as per usual will not compete...if Kirk likes it, maybe we run the winners as a Special in April!
If someone wants to help judge, dandy---but judges can't compete...we're not russian figure skaters, you know...;)
Oh........and I must insist that no one touch the title "Cookie Bear" but Misti---possession being nine tenths of the law...
BK? Jack? You game?
shhh Lady Gala im Cookin!!!!
lol sure my lady lets see what we can wisk up k...
jack
And yes, I suppose "pounding meat" could be considered a cooking term...but you have to use a MALLET...
Heehehehe...this is gonna be fun....
Violet!
I love Spicy!
You Go GIRL!
Gala...my effort is laughable. But I enjoyed taking the challenge. Maybe I can talk Cookie Bear into taking it, too.
:-)
Awwwww Misti...I love it too...but I was hoping for a recipe for cookie bears....:)
Cmon folks...give it a try...lemme rustle up something...
Gala~ Thanks... I love your contests. :-) You're so damn creative!
Misti, Vishal, Jennifer, and Kylie~Thank you for the comments!
Gala~Since I am sick that book sounds good. Darnit, the minute I get a break I end up being sick and I have to spend the week in bed.
Well I would banter on and sorry for not thanking each one of you personally but my head is throbbing and I really need to get some sleep. :-(
Take care and all that I'm-Sick-And-My-Roomates-Are-Going-To-Have-To-Deal-With-My-Bitching.
