Course on most of them I find a small bit of graffiti somewhere that reads 'marcanthony was here'.

I am a firm believer in one's right to die when they wish and in the way they wish. Whatever an adult wishes to do with their own body is totally up to them. I much prefer to take my own life than to have a member of my family taking care of me in the end. I have always said that I wish to go out my own way. I just wish they made it easier for people to do.

When you get down to it, anyone capable of maintaining that kind of program for a whole week wouldn't need to lose 5 lbs. in the first place.

I suspect everyone in this reum knows more than they are telling. Best regards, RA1

Good gosh, AdamSmith! You show a self-awareness few can match. I kind of remember the original riddle. Something to do with folks wishing for one another's blessings? All I could think of was looking for a word meaning "the grass is always greener". I petered out early on and, if it was a wild goose chase, did not meander after the gander. If you did, I can understand your pique. Perhaps this one is a draw and MsGuy will have another challenge for us?

If anybody ever gets to the bottom of this kerfuffle, I sure hope they'll post it here. I can't even figure out who started it.. . . . . . .. .Too bad there aren't any tapes.

By far, LaWanda Page was my favorite character on that show. While she was generally after Fred with that pocketbook, my funniest memory is her running another woman out of the room, waving her purse and yelling, "Her behind belongs to me!" Went to see her at a local university when she was getting up there in years, and she was still funny as hell. She began by thanking all the white men in the audience for showing black men they needed to learn to eat pussy if they wanted to stay in the game. Funny woman!

Over the last 2 weeks, I got a bit stressed at all the posting when Daddy's site was down and to be honest, Steven's posts irked me the wrong way from the very beginning. However, no matter how much someone usually irks me, I rarely let it get to me the way I did with Steven. I would like to apologize to him and to the community for setting him on a 2 week ban. It was not the right action. Lets just say I had my period that day and after a few days of thinking on it, I said to myself, "what the fuck?" Helping the admins of this site to moderate the forums is usually the easiest job on earth as we rarely if ever need anything moderated. However, sometimes we make mistakes and I made one last week. My sincere apologies to Steven for being so short tempered and my apologies to this community for letting anyone get under my skin so much that it affected the site's morale.

My take away from that is that you should take more care in your selection selection of mentors.

One confesses, in light of your Damascus Road experience earlier today, to be contemplating St Paul's legended fate. Regardless, please continue.

Holy cow. Shades of "The Gift of the Magi". Here we are brandying cleverness and prettiness and to what exact point? I learned that from you, MsGuy. Best regards, RA1

Hm. The dawning of wisdom in oneself is seldom ever welcome, I can see I am about to be reminded.

LOL, give me a break, RA1. I'm working really hard here in the hope I might regain at least a faint semblance of dignity after that fierce beat down AS administered.

Sayeth the dog to all the other dogs. Best regards, RA1

GRAND REVEAL: coming soon to a post near you!

Sounds to me like your friend is trying to kill you. Lordy me!

EXCUSE ME ???

AS never sleeps in late, contrary to the rest of us mere mortals. Best regards, RA1

OUCH ----- In mitigation, I plead that I did have a Paul on the Road to Damascus moment at lunch and rushed home hoping you had slept in late today and that I could go ahead and do the great reveal w/o any further concession on your part. No such luck. Somehow AdamSmith, like Henry at Agincourt, you have turned the table, not merely snatched away my victory but crushed me beyond hope of recovery. Well played, AS, well played. ---- The Grand Reveal will follow by separate post so as not to detract from your triumph. I owe you a decent period for celebrations.

I truly feel like a new man quite often about 6 AM, but at that hour I usually cannot find one. Best regards, RA1

I would like to stake a copyright claim to AdamSmith's next twink find (even if sloppy seconds). That is far less obtrusive isn't it?

Someone in this reum knows more than he is telling.

Curiosity, it seems, will pay any price. Thus: I apologize. For all and sundry, no feints or escape clauses. (And if you don't recall exactly for what, I certainly lack will to look back and sort it all out!) As for further outrage -- well, who can forecast the future? Much less control it. So. Yours to disclose, or keep teasing. We all lead narrow shrunken enough lives that I will understand, either way. P.S. What I can foresee is a Scholastic disputatio over whether you correctly interpreted and applied whatever rhetorical figuration you reveal.

And now you've gone straight to the heart of my dilemma. I fear that, after all this time punching away at that tar baby, for which my deliberately misleading posts were partly responsible, you'll be even more enraged when (should I say if?) I tell you the answer (which has really and truly been sitting right out there in plain sight the whole time). So...AS, will you have resolution at the possible price of further outrage? The choice is yours but think long and hard. ---- Of course, that's all assuming that we have resolved the little matter of the apology from you I have been so patiently awaiting. Actually I no longer recall what it was that you were to apologize for but I'm pretty sure it was for something. Do you remember? Maybe lookin knows. I guess if need be we could check back through our posts and find out. ---- Hey, I said I owned to being petty. I didn't say I had changed my stripes. Character change is hard! ROFLMFAO... you did ask for a price.

icy and cute

Let me just say this about that. In great part all this is because it has amused me to nip at MsGuy's heels and ankles on any pretext, in payback for his getting me interested the other day in hunting down that rhetorical figure that, after considerable time wasted in fruitless search, I now believe does not exist. Granted, he never said it did, preserving himself from culpability. That adroitness on his part naturally only adds to the irritation.

If you cannot meet or exceed, "When penguins poo" I don't know who can. Best regards, RA1

Another aspect of this same subject is the power and persuasiveness of words alone. I once had a deal with a professor of a NC university. We wrote back and forth and back and forth. I used what I thought was inescapable logic and reasoning, while he replied, I am not persuaded or words to that effect. He had a long list of things he was not satisfied with in our deal which could have amounted to thousands of dollars. I, too, was unwilling to agree and pay any such. Eventually, I wearied of the back and forth and offered him 3-4 hundred dollars + an explanation of how that money could best be spent on his behalf. He accepted. Nothing further ensued. The lesson I hope I learned was to try to know what the other person really wants and how to best provide it at the minimum expense to you. My firm opinion is this gentleman simply wished me to say I was wrong and make some amends, which I did. Best regards, RA1

I would even venture to say that alot of people who come off, loud, Harsh, abrasive and obnoxious are REALLY very nice people if you were to meet them in person. Somehow communication via the written word on a website translates into a form of BRAVADO that the person wouldnt normally have under face-to-face conditions ?

I hired my first escort based, partly, on the forum at the old Hooboy. I, for one, would hire more often if given the opportunity to meet them through forum interaction. I bet there are more like me here.

Some interesting choices. Thanks. Please keep them coming. I wanted him to do Vogue and talk about all the American Icons. But, that would most like him looking more flaming than me and hitoallusa walking together with my boa and his fabulous shoes.
