It is down right impossible to kill the mood around here this fine evening. So, my intended post has been shelved for the time being. I am grateful for the distraction; my mood had drifted toward the foul. I am not my usual pretty princess self. You laugh...would you prefer The Queen? Quite honestly, I am like an unruly child.
Foolishly, I lost my temper. In an attempt to do far too many things at once, I allowed myself to snap under the pressure. The target of my destructive behavior, ever so graciously, allowed my rant without a challenge. And yes...as I know you will ask, I have apologized. I am truly sorry.
p.s. those dark moments back there cause me to pause and thank you.

Sorry, I forgot about Mayo for a second!

It would be unwise to jump to conclusions about the Maine show.
Not everything is as it seems.
These comments are scrutinized. I hope you will understand.

The term 'medical issue' is perhaps slightly misleading but I guess it is fair to say that, to a certain extent, it is not completely untrue.
Anonymous said...
I'm sorry.
Ahhh I see.
So anonymous, how are you today?
Medical Issue could be anything. It could be cancer or persistent diarrhea. I call off work once a month due to a medical issue.
Please, last thing we need to do is work this blog into a tizzy. We don't personally know anyone in the band, so why jump to conclusions? If it's important, someone will find out eventually.

That is true Amyranth ^-^
Paperheartxx, did you stay up all night??
Hello Resurrected Wreck!=]
I was awake until 5, and I was here till 4:30=]
So not quite all night!
I only got 5 hours of sleep. Bleeding Chaos blames it on the coffee! ^-^
now were taking surgery of some sort?
hmmm, they should just spill
I just woke up about an hour ago (it's 2:26pm here)! Still have a migraine :(
*hugs*
That sucks RW! I really hope it gets better!
Thank you :)
Anytime! =]
Hey everyone.
No new blog, I see. Both Mayo and SS were on last night because they both deleted location from their profiles. It only takes a second to post a saved entry. I wonder why he didn't do so.
This new time zone is extremely confusing as well. Eh.
I agree CTV!
I noticed the profile thing very early this morning. (3 am)
Wow, I am very confused as well by the timezone thing!
Good evening Mayo, good evening all.
RW - still rough? That's not good, maybe you need a night away from the screen?
Mayo, you are a delicious egg based product because the time is now CORRECT. Thankyou :)
I have had a SUPER day and am in a frighteningly good mood!!
It's a GMT timezone. Greenwich Mountain Time.
5 hours ahead or something
Gnothi Seauton, hello!=]
I am in quite the chipper mood today!
But the time IS NOT correct anymore for me!:P
Greenwich Mean Time, I mean.
Geez...Mountains on my mind.
Lolita Haze, at least you know what the G and T stand for!:P
Maybe there was something in the air: The opening band, My Chemical Romance, also from New Jersey, played a brief, 40-minute set that began with the energetic "Famous Last Words," but ran out of steam halfway through. Singer Gerard Way could barely be heard over his bandmates (a problem the band has had before), and by the time he reached the dramatic ballad "Cancer," the chatter of the crowd had grown noticeably louder.
There is such a thing as an off night. Surely the bands, and the Prudential Center, will see better shows in the future."
Posted in the newspaper.
=/ Something is up. The first night everything was great but yesterday..eh
Hi GS :)
I need the air pressure to break, i think. That's usually the cause of my headaches. I'm going to head outside soon though, maybe the fresh air will do me some good.
Maybe they just didn't think it was worth it if no one was really listening to them and talking.
They could've been out of energy.
Lolita - GMT - :)
Paperheart - ah, well, you'll just to adjust the time mentally as we have to this side of the pond :D
Chipperness all round!!
=/ Something is up. The first night everything was great but yesterday..eh
Ran out of steam, eh? That's very unlike them. Maybe they just need a bit of time off to rest before they head out on tour again. Though that really sucks for the fans in Maine, who've had their show cancelled on them twice this year.
Fresh air should definitely help RW!
They began with Famous Last Words and ended with Cancer? What the hell?
Not a good beginning or ending, sorry to say.
Haha I will GS!
=]
That might do the trick RW. Hope it works :)
That's a weird set list CTV?
Hi by the way!
Thanks, GS :)
Is anyone gonna get GUITAR HERO III tomorrow?????
I'm still trying to nail Six on Expert :(
Yes.
I wouldn't like to end the day with such a depressing, slow song. Something like I'm Not Okay, to get all the fans up and jumping about would seem reasonable.
Who knows, but im pretty sure it had to do with the cancellation of Maine.
Well whatevers wrong, i hope its fixed and everything gets better
They began with Famous Last Words and ended with Cancer? What the hell?
"Now I know, that I can't make you stay..."
and
"The hardest part of this, is leaving you?"
Wat?
-Amyranth
Amyranth, I didn't mean they combined both songs. I meant on their set list, the first song played was FLW and the final one was Cancer.
Sorry to have confused you.
Looks even weirder when you word it like that, Amyranth!
Oh dear, the spidey senses are back.
Those two songs kind of contradict each other in a way.
Nah, we got that CTV :)
It's just the order is weird and when Amyranth took the beginning and ends of the songs it looks even more disturbing.
Ahh alright. Thanks, dear.
those two songs do contradict each other -_-
I dont know why i keep thinking to that scenario, uhhh stupid brain
Anyway, I'm off to go underwear shopping. Have a good afternoon, all :)
Haha have fun RW!=]
Don't buy anything too revealing!;)
""No new blog, I see. Both Mayo and SS were on last night because they both deleted location from their profiles..""
Is anyone else thinking it's because they're the same person???
I sometimes think all of these mysterious blogs are written by the same person.
Oh, maybe Gerard read this blog and sabataged Kapuna's keyboard!!! LOL!
So does anyone know if MSI is back from england, it could be the reason for the cancelled show.
I don't think that they are the same person anonymous.
I don't either.
The show wasn't canceled. They played last night. Gerard is not in England with her.
So does anyone know if MSI is back from england, it could be the reason for the cancelled show.
I don't think they are back, they had a show last night and another show tomorrow, they do have today off though..
But if she is coming home for a day it would be exactly like Gerard to cancel a show to be with some girl (whoever he is with at the time).... I don't know of they are but I just was thinking about that.
I sometimes think all of these mysterious blogs are written by the same person.
As I said on BC's blog last night; sometimes I think that some of these anonymous people that fight with each other are just the same person trying to start shit on here.
I guess it would be like Gerard to do that anonymous, but somehow, I don't think he'd let down a bunch of fans just to run off with his 'beloved' wife.
I really don't think SS and Mayo are the same person.
Anonymous, I really don't think so either. They vibe I get from each one is very different.
The*
I'm going to wander for a bit, catch you later.
Bye Gnothi Seauton!
*hugs*
MSI is still in Europe, and even if they werent i strongly doubt they would cancel a show because of something like that. Not very reasonable.
They've only canceled 2 shows before, food poisoning and when Mikey and Gerard's dad had a heartattack....=/
Unfortunately, it is best for me to go as well.
If anyone is still here, have an amazing day!
Mayo, please come out soon! I am worried about you!
Love;

Last night when people were convinced the reason for the cancellation of the Maine show was to do with Bob cos it was all over the internet, didn't a random anon pop up and say it wasn't to do with Bob, it was to do with Gerard?
Just seems a bit odd for an anon to contradict everything that people were saying on other sites etc. Just makes you think, doesn't it?
Is anyone here? I've returned.
Hiya CTV! I've only just turned up. What are we talking about.
Hi Mayo! Hope you are fine and dandy today.
"I guess it would be like Gerard to do that anonymous, but somehow, I don't think he'd let down a bunch of fans just to run off with his 'beloved' wife."
He ALWAYS blew fans off for Eliza when she was around. it was his choice, not hers, she was not the evil bitch every one thought she was.
Maybe not to the point of cancelling a concert back then but he's so different these days I think he would go that far.
Wow anonymous, it makes me sad to contemplate that being the case.
She didn't object though, Anonymous, and she certainly didn't complain. She enjoyed it, it fed her ego.
As much as I hate to admit it, I agree with you Anonymous.
I can see him doing something like that. However, I don't think this was the case yesterday. The show wasn't canceled. They played.
Cancel a whole show for Lyn-z?
People are fucked up but no one is fucked up that much
It wasnt because of Lyn-z or MSI or any of that. There was a reason, im pretty sure but nothing stupid like that.
hi everyone :)
wow so much comments... time for a new post or mayo???
My Chemical Romance live to perform, it is in their blood and their hearts. They would not cancel a show and disappoint their fans without good reason.
To Gerard it probably is a good reason. And about Eliza, ho wouldn't be flattered??
Plus I'm not talking about a show yesterday I'm talking about the Maine one that got cancelled for "medical" reasons"..... I was asking if MSI was coming home for a day or LynZ was or soemthing, I can see gerard cancelling a show if she was gonna visit him.
plus remember, youre talking about a desparate man who can't do things by himself and he would do desparate things in order to spend time with some one. It doesn't have to make sense to us, but I can see him doing that.
The other guys would never let it happen though. They would kick his ass, even if they are best friends.
If you don't wanna sign autographs after the show, fine. That's your decision. But canceling a show involves them, and they wouldn't let it happen. That would be crossing the line.
I think you will find it would have to make sense to the management though.
^^ What capture said.
MSI isnt even in the states and like i said, even if they were they arent going to cancel a show. Thats just really stupid.
I have a feeling its a family issue
*shrug* thats probably why they arent so specific and arent telling us much.
stupid spellingmistakes so here again ^^
I was thinking the same like CTV, I think the other guys would never support such a thing...
I think Frank/ray would take over the vocals for a show before they'd let Gee cancel a show to be with his wife
"I think the other guys would never support such a thing...
They've been supporting a lot of Gerard's stupidity lately though...... I'm not saying it's true I'm just saying I woulnd't be too surprised.
There's actually something really interesting in the last comment on Verita's blog. I just saw it while surfing the blogs and it could that that too. Sad.
Mayo...come out to play-i-ay...Mayo....
Sorry everyone. Too much Warriors.
I wouldn't necessarily say they support it. It's more like they're coping with his actions.
Umm, no offense but that is really stupid. Cancel a show because it didn't give them enough money?
Phsst, because 56,000 dollars is monopoly money and even if it was little compared to what they usually get, its still nonetheless money.
Theyve only canceled 2 or 3 shows in their entire career.
Like i said, one for food poisoning and the other for a family issue.
They canceled for a reason and you know what, maybe they dont want us to know?
I think we should just leave it until the band tells us themselves and start making up stuff, because when stuff is said, it starts arguments and we wouldnt want that now would we?
*stop making up stuff, -spelling error
Uhh, i sound in a pissy mood but i hate having to go through the day hearing shit from people.
I agree, gel. Let's leave it alone. It's awful to say, but it's for them to know and for us to find out. I would be upset too, but these things do happen, excusable or inexcusable.
They recently performed at Maxwell's with proceeds donated to charitable causes. The band are not greedy and are not motivated by money. They would never cancel a show for financial reasons.
I believe that,anon.
hello, everyone.
i see we're building castles in the air while we wait for mayo -- not my thing much, so i'll just resume my seat here in the back and eat those wasabi peas from last night.
*crunch crunch crunch*
Anonymous, this comment was for you written by Mustard. She's having trouble posting so i'll post this for her.
mustardisbetter said...
Ohhh. That Anon that just posted in Mayo's: I agree so hard with you. If someone reads this, could someone tell them I agree with that. And tell them that if they did it for the money, they wouldn't have booked a 2000 seater in Maine to begin with. I haven't lost faith in the fact that these guys aren't assholes and make music for everyone to hear. Not just the people who can go to a huge ass coliseum to listen to them play. They do this because they want to, not strictly because they're in it for the money.
GAH!
October 27, 2007 4:24 PM
Hey Roger, nudge nudge wink wink*
Keep the crunching down.
How are you by the way?
"They recently performed at Maxwell's with proceeds donated to charitable causes."
Well it just got out that "Kat" the woman who inspired the earliest songs and who Gerard dumped WHILE SHE WAS REALLY SICK has cancer. So I call damage control on the cancer charity. They have to do something to make him look like less a dickhead.
Thank you, I appreciate your vote of confidence.
I don't know this 'kat' but I hope she's gonna be ok.

I believe that as well.
hey miss t *crunch winky crunch*
i'm not the happiest chcikie in the coop today, but not too bad even so.
*crunch crunch*
you want some of these? they're the real thing. sinus pain and all!
>.<
*crunch crunch ow crunch*
Uhh, whatever im wasting my breath.
You people want to believe everything you hear, go ahead.
I think im just going to sit here and and eat these cookies.
Anon @10:30.
Not only is that an extremely offensive and insulting thing to say, but you actually could not be more wrong.
i dont even think a band motivated by money would cancel a show.
Its money nonetheless, seriosuly, 56,000 dollars is money even to the richest people on earth.
And we have no evidnece for this whole "kat" thing, so i think we ought to drop it -_-
Anyways, where is thy mayo? Hasnt posted in a while
Yes Roger, I'll share some thanks.
Hmmmm crunch crunch
these are nice Roger.
I hope the sinus pain gets better. Let me know if you need anything and I'll pop to the chemist for you. You just sit back and put your feet up.
Maybe we should let this go. We'll hear the truth soon enough.
"nonymous said...
Thank you, I appreciate your vote of confidence."
Another person pretending to be Gerard....???
"Kat" does have cancer. She is NOT ok. Gerard knows that word of it got out. 2+2
Hey guys;
Don't jump to conclusions. I'm sure that there is a reasonable explanation behind the cancellation. It could be something personal that they don't wish to say, but I don't think that they would cancel it just so Gerard can see his wife. Just, have a little faith in them. =]
Anyways, how is everyone?
aw, miss t, you're the sweetest. don't worry though -- the sinus pain will go away as soon as i finish these wasabi peas. i can't help myself, i love food that bites back!
here, try a whole handful for yourself. see what i mean? it's like a spike between the eyes! :D
Okay, Mustardisbetter asked me to post this over here for anonymous at 10:30 to read:
mustardisbetter said...
People are getting so angry over there. This saddens me because we shouldn't be getting angry at anyone. Everyone is jumping to way too many conclusions on the cause of the cancellation and it's spiraling out of control into more guesses that have no backing.
Now Gerard did "damage contol" by playing a concert ('cause we all know it's HIS band!!!) for a cancer benefit because "Kat" had cancer (didn't get the memo that this was the fucking reason he left her. Seems to me the fandom pulled that one out of their asses) and not because ALL OF THE GUYS WANTED TO GIVE SOMETHING BACK! Shit. Give them a break.
Now I'm getting pissed, and I'm sorry I ranted over here. Stupid effing dial-up.
October 27, 2007 4:39 PM
Crunch crunch!!!!!!!!!!!!
They do bite back Roger, they certainly do.
Hi paperheartxx :) My headache is gone - huzzah!
Hey, How is everyone today?
Hey RW!
That is great to hear!! *hugs*
Was it the fresh air that helped?
=]
Hello Elena! *hugs*
I am great how about you?
*crunch crunch crunch*
yep, miss t. that they do.
*crunch crunch crunch*
^.^
Good evening again Mayo.
Good evening all.
Just scanned the comments and I must say I find it hard to believe that the show would be cancelled for anything other than legitimate reasons.
And the comment about damage control with regards to the Kat rumours, that would indicate a pretty cold, calculated heart.
And I for one don't intend to entertain that idea.
Hi Paperheart, RW, Elena!
How are you all?
Hugs to you all.
Hey GS!=]
Miss T. I am great! *hugs*
Hi GS, Hugs to you.
Roger,
mmmmmmmmmmmmmm crunch crunch (shoves in another handful)
crunch crunch
I think it was a combination of the fresh air, the retail therapy, and the ice cream, paperheartxx ;)
Hi Miss T, how's things? :)
That is very very very good to hear Resurrected Wreck! My mom and sister are on their way back from Safeway with more ice cream ^-^
Heya GS :)
Great thanks RW.
Have you bedded in that hat yet?
I've been trying to catch up. Stupid dial up at work wouldn't load the whole page cause there are so many comments. Home now but damn so many comments. I guess we still don't know why they aren't playing tonight?
ooohh, miss t. i'm impressed! :)
*crunch crunch*
HEYLO PEEPS!
RW - good to see you feel better!
I'm watching Most Haunted at the moment and it's getting spooooky!
Still working on breakin in the hat, Miss T. Though I have noticed that each time I put it on it feels a little more comfortable. It may just need to get the stiffness worked out of it, and it'll be fine.
Gnothi, I love most haunted!! =]
I LOVE Most Haunted!!!
I love Most Haunted and all those shows,
especially watching the expression on my brothers face whenever i watch it.
He starts crying
Okay people, I have to go now for supper, I will be back later on for sure! *hugs* for all!!!
Mayo, come out come out where ever you are!!!
Love;

Bye Paperheartxx!
That's good RW. I'd have no probs cos I've got a teeny head, it's quite embarrasing actually.
GS, I'm so jealous. I only have freeview so we don't get living channel. I do have a mate taping it for me though. 5 nighter this time init? Where's it from tonight?
They're doing a Hallowe'en special that is running for 5 days up until Wednesday.
They have based themselves in Cheshire and they are visiting places each night that when you join an invisible line they form an inverted pentagram, with their base studio in the centre.
Oooooohhh!
Hey Roger,
crunch crunch
how many more of these do you have?
Ooooooooooooo spooky GS.
I'll get to see it Thursday. Can't wait.
Miss T,
Don't know.
The studio base is Tatton Park but the sites have had their names changed so that the investigation can't be violated.
Some old priory in Yorkshire, that's all they'll say.
I'm watching Dawn of the Dead tonight. I got the 1978 version for Christmas, and I still like to watch the remake just because they're vastly different. Also, the latter always reminds me of Early Sunsets Over Monroeville....That's why I love that song with a passion!
I wonder haw many times Yevette will scream tonight ha!
miss t -- *crunch crunch* -- special bag -- *crunch crunch* -- connected to wormhole -- *crunch crunch* -- to wasabi dimension.
*crunch crunch* it's bottomless -- *crunch crunch* -- so help yourself!
*crunch crunch crunch crunch crunch*
Lolita Haze,
I've never seen Dawn of the Dead would you believe.
Shaun of the Dead but not Dawn of the Dead.
OH CRAP!
A firework just went off!
My heart!!
*crunch crunch*
falling into wasabi wormhole *crunch*
feel feet slipping *crunch*
send help *crunch*
HHHHHHHEEEEEEEELLLLLLLPPPPPPPP
*CRUNCH*
Miss T,
Yeah!!
And the stupid thing is she's just gone into a cellar with Cath on their own!
Just wait for the screams!!!
Here Miss T grab my arm.
Oh oh oh there's lots of OH FUCKING HELL'S going on.
Teehee! Are you alright?!
Yep. You are missing out. Dawn of the Dead was epic. I'm a horror fiend. That's all I do! :) :)
I'd be like the misfits, naming all of my songs after old B-movie horror flicks.
GS, you'll have to let us know if anything amazing happens.
Thanks for the arm GS.
Argh, feet still slipping but can't stop crunching.
*CRUNCH*
Fireworks here too tonight GS.
I don't want to spoil it for you.
I'll have to check it out won't I LH!!
omg! miss t!!! :o
don't fight the current! just relax your body and float along with the peas! the flow is in this direction, so you should be lifted back to us!
just, keep your eyes closed! that wasabi powder can sting like a bitch!
OHMYGOD. I just found out that Phantom of the Paradise is going to be on!! I have it...but I lost it two years ago :( :(
Lolita Haze, I have no idea what you're talking about!
oh miss t, i'm so glad gs helped you out there.
*heh* i kinda overreacted, but you know, what with this dial-up, it makes me as slow as if i was posting from the other side of that wasabi wormhole.
*sigh*
*crunch*
*crunch*
Closes eyes and lays back to float.
Yes Roger, I do believe it's working.
I'll be back with you in no time. Can you grab my hand for the last bit.
:)
Phantom of the Paradise. A glam rock musical/horror film by Brian De Palma. Before he did Scarface. It's beautiful, really. You should add it to your list of must sees! I was really surprised when Gerard mentioned it as an influence for TBP!
I'm going to go to BC's for a bit to talk to RW.
Added to list.
Thankyou Lolita!
See you in a bit.
oh miss t, you look so peaceful laying there...like a pre-raphaelite painting.
*holds out hand*
Bye!
Aw thanks Roger, I did feel kinda peaceful just floating like that.
*Grabs hand and drags herself out of wormhole*
It's nice to get your feet backon the floor though.
I love pre-Raphaelite art, toujours! JEM and Dante Gabriel Rossetti!
oh, lolita, pre-raph was a big influence on my art all through high school and college. dg rossetti, wm moris, all those boys...
getting to go and stand in front of their paintings for real when i was in england was a huge rush. :)
When it comes to art it's Egyptian all the way for me.

I could not pull the article up about the aids cure article. But I don't doubt it is true. I have a friend that works at the monkey lab in new iberia, louisiana. For the last 5+ years they have been doing control studies on the vaccine. And it works!! Our children (most here) will see the end of aids. Now lets find that vaccine for cancer!!!!! FYI most cancers are related to a virus!!!
I love Art Nouveau.
That's swell!
I love Victorian art, but I have the weakest spot for Dali and...hey, even Mondrian. I just love art.
I love Dali too.
miss t, for a while i was fascinated by hatshepshut, so i did a bit of research on the topic, and loved the frescoes -- all that detail!
resurrected wreck, i've always felt that pre-raph and art nouveau are stylistically related, so i was a fan of art nouveau, too. especially mucha. (sweet mucha!)

TJ, you should check out the Amarna period. Akhenaten changed all of Egyptian art. It totally changed in every way.
It reminds me soooo much of The End.
Good evening again everyone! (Mayo included, of course)
I've been ducking in and out all day, trying to get my Hallowe'en wig done. Next up is the pumpkin carving contest, so what should I carve? Quick! It starts in 20 minutes!

oh lovely!
have you ever seen the murals he did, drawing heavily on czech myth and history? they're ginormous, and truly amazing. i'd love to see them in person some day.
i have to admit, when it comes to twentieth c. art, i get to be a bit of a snob though. i haven't got anything angainst dali, but i remember being extremely pissed off at picasso back in college! "that fucker, he ruined art for everyone!!" *grumble grumble*
lol
You can no longer hold this together.
The sleepless nights, the panic, the deep deep lows.
Things can distract, only for a short time.
But it always stays the same.
Hi everyone !
My 2 cents worth:
I doubt anything MCR do are for such trivial reasons, and I doubt their management would tolerate it for long if they did.
Maine already missed shows before so either they hate the area or it is a legitimate problem
TJ, you should check out the Amarna period. Akhenaten changed all of Egyptian art. It totally changed in every way.
wasn't akhenaten the one who moved the capitol and the paintings of the time were more realistic, almost portraits? is that the right guy?
i'll definitely look into it, though! :)
I loved that poem Ergo. It was this time last year that we started down that road with mum. Luckily for us it's a total cure in her case.
Every time i go to Egypt my parents drag me too tons of art museums. Its pretty nice art but im more into European art.
Anyone ever been to The Metropoliton Museum of Art? Its really an amazing place. I never get sick of going there.
Yes TJ, that's the fella. An amazing time in Egyptian history and art. Totally unlike anything that had gone before.
Things can distract, only for a short time.
anon @ 12:13, it sounds like you're saying we're hindering mayo by being a distraction to him.
i sincerely hope we aren't.

i read an historical novel based on his life once -- can't remember the title at all, but it was amazing to think one person could change his culture so completely, based on his beliefs alone.
are those links to the period? i'll check them out tonight! :)
Anonymous @ 12.13am,
Things don't have to stay the same,
there is always free will.
And I like to think that not only do we distract but catch and support each other when we fall, whoever we may be.
We are all friends here, anonymous but still steadfast and true.
Links to pics. Yeah TJ, he changed everything. It is so fascinating. You can still see traces of his influence into the time of Tutankhamun, whose original name was tutankhaten because he also started life worshipping the aten.
nicely said GS
I think if he's a troubled and confused soul he would appreciate knowing there is some support, even if it is anonymous.
We may not always agree with his actions but I think we all want him to be stable and happy, and if he's made mistakes, it is up to him to fix them, as hard as that may be. Perhaps he wants to but doesn't really know how.
Or he feels it's going too far too fast.
Who knows the truth, but we all want the same I'm sure.
on another note. Was it akhenaten who removed all trace of the female pharoh before him? Or someone else, I remember a documentary about it.

That was Tuthmosis. He was too young to reign when his father Tuthmosis died so Hatchepsut took over the throne in the meantime. One the young king was old enough, Hatchepsut didn't want to give the throne back. She mysteriously vanishes from history and Tuthmosis tried to wipe any evidence she existed. It is called the second death and it spells oblivion.
thanks misst

and it's all gone...
i have to say, that's not quite true, in my experience.
once, in college, the prof handed around a pottery shard from the jomon period of japan, and i looked at it, and was surprised to see a fingerprint. in prehistoric pottery!
at the time, i was also taking a ceramics course, and at that moment, i knew exactly how that perhistoric potter had felt, handling the clay. it was time travel.
not gone, at all.
...and, i will now be quiet for a while! sheesh. i'm either a chatterbox or i'm hiding in the corner. there's no middle ground for me it seems.
*rueful grin*
Not at all, Toujours, please put in every penny you have !
History comes to life in situations like that doesn't it!
Roger, I didn't recognise you without the crunching. I usually hear you before I see you.
Toujours, please don't be quiet. I enjoy listening to what you say.
*crunch crunch*
nope, it's you guys' turn to caper for mayo.

How about some Peter Kay jokes?
A bloke goes to his doctor and says "take a look at this".
He dropped his tousers.
The doctor said "my god man, you've got 5 penis's, how do your pants fit?"
...............
Like a glove.
But I have nothing to talk about. I'm as dull as dish water.
Hey is that really the saying? Dull as dish water? Why is dish water dull? I mean usually it's bubbly. Then that saying really doesn't make sense. Okay now you see why I can't talk? Too many random thoughts.
