Well Just Doug, we won't apologize just yet, for every time we do Sushi jumps out and goes BOO! Which is why some hide under the steps. Confrontation is not most of us, just some of us. It takes a bit of knowledge of what's gone on around here...so just watch read write and wait. ha

She was a collector. She started collecting shoes off all the neighbors porches and got me in a lot of trouble..ha <BR>

Welcome to the blender!<BR>
If you read jwb71913 you will know that he has been under the porch for awhile and if I thought I had been fooled from Sush & by his various names, then i was going to crawl under Jim's porch...some around here have crawled behind things and under rocks for other reasons as well...although, i won't have to join Jim under the porch--maybe when the rains stop, he will dust himself off and meet me in the sunshine...<BR>
Jim,<BR>
Did you ever make it to the river?  I was so hoping your dog would be back...((hug))<BR>

Yes Pam, Since we talked last Amy did return.  I spent a solitary weekend on the Arkansas, but did not canoe, just sat and fished and pondered.  The time alone was good for me, no time pressures and no agendas.<BR>
<BR>
We've had some good rains here, I'm hoping to get onto the Caddo in a couple of weeks, but since busy season is here I might have to play golf with some of my clients instead (Awww shucks!!!).<BR>
<BR>
Thanks B.K.  You always make me smile, glad I gave you one.

Call it what you want, but don't get your boxers in a wad. We've been had too many times to be trusting till the evidence is clear. <BR>

Hey Doug,<BR>

I like your stuff.  Just hide under the porch for a while and get your mind right.  Keep writing, you write better than sush anyway, IMHO.

Ok, just putting word on the page around here is HIGH DRAMA, so get used to getting your chain pulled. We like colorful characters (Right Sush?) and eat the super sensitive for breakfast ha. (for all the super sensitive I'm only kidding)<BR>

Thank you for your comment... it's nice to hear you liked it, but more importantly, it's given me a good reason to look up YOUR work.  I'm ashamed to say I haven't really taken the time to explore your stuff.  My mistake.  You're a long-time contributor and have a body of solid submissions, including some FPPs.  Your style -- your "voice" if you will -- is very familiar to me and if it weren't for some of the details in your works -- details that I presume are autobiographical -- I might venture that we know each other.  Again, shame on me for not paying closer attention.<BR>
<BR>
I really enjoyed <a href="/blend/wv.cgi?id=2004.05.12.00.45.24030">faded</a>.  That piece REALLY hit home.  Jarringly.  My latest (<a href="/blend/wv.cgi?id=2004.06.15.22.12.7166">I'd Be There</a>) is a perfect -- AND ENTIRELY UNWITTING -- bump to it.  You may very well consider it one man's response.  Funny how some patterns are woven throughout the human condition.<BR>
<BR>
Thanks for your comment... it's very dear coming from another contributor whose work I value.  Keep up the good work.<BR>
