You actually KNOW this guy? Get an unlisted phone number. Quick. Might even want to consider some sort of witness protection program too...

Kirk; Thank you very much for the pick. It's my third year anniversary here and still my favorite place to post. Even with all the Smack-A-Belly-ian scenes this place still floats my yellow submarine. Thanks a bunch Kirk.<BR>
<BR>
Congratulations, Nice Work Everyone!

Very cool September issue.  Thank you for your comments, Kirk.  That poem sat two days thinking it was cooked, but I kept thinking there was something missing.  So I set it aside.  Woke up on day three and the words Passion and Pavlov finally knocked (loud) on my head, exactly what the voice was reaching for - so that's my favorite part as well.  Thanks again,  Madi

You wrote that drool at work on night shift and I had to correct it, remember?  TJ you are so silly.  Whatever dark side of the moon.  Hey but whatever floats your boat.  Heard the medication thing several times, chuckled before, getting old now.  It's a easy shot though.  Hey, you know where I will be at around six.  Out of curiousity, hows the military carreer and the three other jobs you are holding down while going to scool.  Quite admirable.  The man will never be able to hold you down.  Stay strong sister.  I'll keep paying my taxes so you can buy more stuff.---LEAMAS

Word to mother, Wordley... (And HELLO to Teej!) This could be - and has been - a truly great forum for writers. Why Kirk lets so much nonsense slide is way beyond me. Benign neglect? Who's to say. OF COURSE controversial topics should be encouraged and tolerated - but continual postings by clearly-unbalanced individuals (a la Mark McNabb and his host of obnoxious alter-egos, Leamas, etc.) should not be. Has anyone stopped and considered how many talented writers have went elsewhere because of all this?

Funny Sush, someone whose opinion I value said the same thing to me not one hour ago. I think we wax and wane with the full moon falling by the wayside lately. If everyone would just stick to the subject at hand (love in its many forms) Quit using this as a petty quarrel forum, or bully pulpit shark show we might be able to draw our followings and poets back again.  Try putting passion into poetry instead of kicking us all into the bottom feeding creeping catfish sideline shows.<BR>

misti: i have been drinking some of the chilean varieties lately.  give concha y toro cab sav merlot and the gato negro merlot (not cab sav) a try.  these are real mellow reds.  like you, i had a time trying to get a red that i could handle the strong taste of.  thankfully, someone turned me on to these two types.  i am branching on to others as the mood strikes.  and, by the way, the thanks go to you from keeping the doldrums out of my memories...  <BR>

lady:  nope, can't say you mentioned norah to me.  it is the only thing good i can say about my recent aquaintance i made in northern arkansas.  at least it was not a total waste of my time...<BR>
