Vishal, Men and Women, The Mystery: I like your observations, especially about each standing alone, for we do unless finding a real oneness to no longer feel that. A fav of mine is: "What happens to the hole when the cheese is gone?" (Brecht) ..... Rennie

To save confusion now: was going to break Framed Questions down into a (55)er. Didn't, and forgot to remove that in the visible questions for the titles in new submissions form.<BR>
<BR>
wordley, reading your works as I am able now ... perhaps "she" thought, as many women mistakenly do, that you were "trainable" and would never "fart" or the like in front of her mother .. :) ..... Rennie

Funny you mentioned wet noodles...as I was catching up on the board I was eating some leftover Mac-n-Cheese...Annine's actually.  And I'm a bit of a freak, and eat it with medium salsa stirred in. Don't mean to be too much of a facist about discussion, but I do kind of like things a little orderly.<BR>
<BR>
One thing I should tell people, this is new, if you want to send me e-mail, but "[blender]" (not neccesarily with the quotes, but with the brackets) in the subject.  That way my new "spam whitelist" feature (highlights mail from people I've sent mail to before OR with subjects containing magic passwords like [blender]) will colorize your mail, indicating that it's likely not a spam. I try to glance at the non-whitelisted stuff, at least the subject lines, but your chances are even better if you do that.<BR>
<BR>
I should probably put those instructions somewhere on the site besides the msg board, huh?<BR>

Apologies, Kirk.  I won't do that again...  <BR>
I'm not even sure what prompted my outburst (actually, I am, but even so...)<BR>
<BR>
I'm thinking that is one reason why I shy away from answering my own questions in the first place (to avoid a dialogue, be it anarchist or fascistic, or even metaphorical...)<BR>
<BR>
I think it was a good question, though.<BR>
<BR>
Which is a good segue for a plea to ANY of you who feel you have a good question to ask the group at large...  email me...  PLEASE!

Kevin, thanks on the come haiku me ... I decided to take the plunge after reading varda's haiku submitted earlier. I liked it and had gone back to read again several times. I remember you writing some great haiku in the past when I was at Blender.<BR>
<BR>
teej, saddle ... tooooo funny! I've watched Jack have too much fun in "lit and poetry" chats over time. Fun to see all this spark creativity here. BTW, I was going to put some spurs and handcuffs in a yard sale. Either you or Jack want to buy them cheap at this point? I'll throw in a hedge trimmer with one and a Norton's Book of Poetry with the other! ..... Rennie
