Honorable Mention.
I am the clown.
Because you asked me to
and I am colorful enough, so
I quickly make the change.
It’s an easy switch in contrast.
Then, you are off and running.
Up and down the row
I am chasing you and I am out of breath.
You are elusive, but you see
I am the clown.
And I will use a trick to catch you.
I must catch you, because I have to tell you
I am not a fool. But, I have failed.
The pulsing lights drawing on
Death and destruction flash above
And beyond you. The images are mostly grave
Punched in and out in perfect time.
They were too many and too long, but
I had to remain until the end.
I knew they would tell the story.
Then, the images stop.
I achieve execution in a flash of bright white
Then perception returns to me, the clown,
Looking at you down the row.
I can’t move but to say the end.
But, I forgot the most important part.
Then, you are gone.
For a moment, I am frantic to find you.
But, I also don’t want to lose my character.
It is of every color and
Can give me up a reckless fool.
While I pretend to know the rest,
I search for my friend.
His name is random, and
He was sitting next to me.
Before you came along…
And as I am just about to take my leave
You appear again, but now
You are the clown.
And you want to tell me that
I am just a fool.
p.s. strung out on pointless prevarication and cardboard collusion.
(...fucking nightmare)

«Oldest ‹Older 1601 – 1800 of 4664 Newer› Newest»Haven't you ever nicknamed someone? Especially someone you like? It does not mean they personally know him or have met him.
Don't be stupid, she has said MANY times that she would miss SEEING him. Anyway if she is still posting on the blog and so is Mayo, why would she miss him? She met him on the road. She told Elena. They told the OPS and the four of them told everyone here.
2:11 and 2:13 get over it.
Like the OPS "got over" Miracle Whip when they got left out of that? Oh wait they DID get over it. Because this time they are on the popular team.
Good grief.
Most people like that do, anon at 2:13. Why let it bother you?
2:14 you make me laugh. It's a figure of speech. And she may identify with the blog in a emotional sense. You are taking things too literally, and are sounding more and more like a teenager.
Goodnight CC.
I have been trying to think of something to say to the anons who are going after Tj. But I can't come up with anything.
I just know I don't like what is going on. With the anons going after TJ
Look, anons. I also think that Toujours knows who Mayo is. I have seen her "flaunting" it as you say, too.
But I also think that Mayo is a shithead who gets off on this power trip and ego stroking.
So if you look at it that way, none of them are really worth your time.
To all of the "feeling left out anons":
What if (and I'm speaking hypothetically here), you had met Mayo and now knew his identity. But he asked you to not tell anyone and be discreet. What would you do? Or what if you hadn't met him exactly, but had picked up on a few clues, would you keep it to yourself? Tell a few friends? Or run the risk of losing this special place by telling everyone? Me? I personally keep things like to myself. You?
good night cupcake. :)
martha, i hope it doesn't actually turn into a bad fire season. would you be at risk? be careful, ok?
amyranth, i used to go to calgary like, alla time. i lived just across the border, near glacier nat'l park...does this mean i'm in?
am i a canadian?? :D
*things like THAT
It's a figure of speech. And she may identify with the blog in a emotional sense.
How is "I will miss seeing your smile" a figure of speech? What does that have to do with identifying with the blog in an emotional sense?? You are just being stupid and making lame excuses. She said it. They all said it.
Haha on the news they just had to remind people not to run naked in the Bay to breakers.
We you want to but they are asking people not to.

I would keep it to myself.
But they did the opposite of that. They came here and giggled about it among themselves to make everyone else feel bad. That's the difference.
redrum, you sound like charlie brown. i thought you seemed familar. *grin*
Both at the 2:18, good points. This is beyond silly.
So...
Hey, Amyranth--good seeing you!
Hey, Redrum--good seeing you too!
Night, Cupcake--good seeing you too and I'll miss seeing you later!
Now, I guess that means I know them all and share a secret with them. Hmm. Sorry Anon. Guess that leaves you out yet again. Damn.

I would also keep it to myself. But you are missing the point. Toujours, Elena and the OPs did NOT keep it to themselves.
2:11, this comment from you?
"For some people it feels good to shit on "lesser" people or less popular ones."
When I said "You should know," I meant, "You should know about shitting on people and how it makes you feel."
Sorry if I confused you. I should have kept it to one-syllable words.
This is becoming a ridiculous, relentless facade of reality. Vultures, feel free to tear each other apart over something that isn't important. The rest of you, good night.
Anon at 2:20, you aer being an asshole on purpose. "I will miss seeing your smile Carmine now that the tour is over" is very obvious.
2:19 Please, do rant on! Just shows your immaturity!
You can try to cover it up all you want. They said those things and the only reason is to make the ones left out, feel like shit. Otherwise they wouldnt' have even said it.
Damn. My cover is blown.
I have never had a problem with any firers in my area. But the last time we had those big Oakland hill firers it did affect my asthma.
And thank you for worrying tj
Well anons, the only thing you can do is get over it. Don't let them ruin your night. Don't let them ruin the blog for you. Mayo is a shit head, he lives for this. He's got his "in" group and why do you want to be in on it? Wouldn't that make you just as bad as them? Just forget it. Move on with your life.
Just like a comic book!
Redrum you're silly
anons, at least it's not "love" poetry.
I don't want to be a part of it I just wish they would stop stirring up shit. Why do they want to hurt peoples feelings. I don't understand it.
"Left out anons",
Okay, let me see if I understand where you are coming from. So you know that there is secret between the four people involved and you know what the secret involves and that they have talked about it here, correct so far? Then it's not really a secret and no one is really left out. So if you know all of this for a fact, why are feeling so left out? That doesn't make sense to me.
Let them stir all the shit they want. Why are you letting it hurt you? Move on.

If you have a secret you should keep it. If you're going to tell what it is then tell it or shut the fuck up and stop making hints and playing, I know something you don't know.
Teej, damn fucking near! Can you drink an entire bottle of maple syrup? Groom a beaver? Kiss a Canada Goose's arse?
Anon, hey!
And don't forget about the secret *wink wink* and the *you know where* being thrown by *you know who*
-A
The 12:28 anon is just being an ass. No one is that dense, they are just trying to make you angrier.
Why not forget them? So what, they play games. So what they are Mayo's cheerleaders. They're not going to give you a wedgie and shove you in the locker because they are not in your actual life.
Just forget them. They're welcome to their secret club, LOL.
Good one Amy, invent a new secret and let them all revel in their stupidity!
It is my compensation for the agony of prepubescent balding.
Amyranth you actually did a damn good impression on how Toujours and Elena have been acting since the concerts.
FORGET THEM! Mayo is not that important! He is to them, but they are welcome to him, I say.
Hi.
Well I'm suprized at Tourjours because I thought she seemed nice.
2:30 anon, you are so immature. Are you by chance a little kid? You sound like a 3rd-grader! "I'm left out, they're teasing me, they won't let me in on a secret!"
Fer cryin out loud, give it a rest! Noticed that TJ is not responding to you? Think that means she doesn't care what you say or think? Pack your bags and go cry somewhere else!
Sheesh! Get a CLUE!
Fer cryin out loud, give it a rest! Noticed that TJ is not responding to you? Think that means she doesn't care what you say or think? Pack your bags and go cry somewhere else!
You are though, pretty consistently.
Hi RW!
You sound like a 3rd-grader! "I'm left out, they're teasing me, they won't let me in on a secret!"
Well that is exactly how Toujours has been acting.
They keep telling people there IS a secret but not what the secret is. What part of that do you not understand?
Beyond that first comment from, when, a month or so ago, where have you seen all four of them, or any of them, talking about The Secret?
This is obviously Elena. She can't say these things signed in because she is part of the "in" group and she doesn't want to look bad.
Hello, night owl.
Hi, anon @ 2:35!
Beyond that first comment from, when, a month or so ago, where have you seen all four of them, or any of them, talking about The Secret?
Toujours, pretty much all the time.
hello rw how are you?
hey who was it who likes the Kewpie mayo. because i saw it today
Hello, Redrum & A :) And TJ, if you're still here :)
i've always liked your fashion sense, charles...i mean, redrum. *grin*
martha, those fires can affect so many people, they get so out of control. just be careful!
hmm, amyranth. i can drink the maple syrup, i coul probably groom a beaver...but the goose thing? er...can i claim being a vegetarian and squeak on by?
i had my first bag of dill pickle-flavored potato chips in alberta, next to a grain elevator. i still own the mackenzie brothers' album. i have $2.76 in canadian money packed in storage back in washington...
*getting desperate*
Hi, MJ :) I'm good, I had a very nice night out. How are you?
Hallo RW!
Want some popcorn?
-A
Okay. I give up. I am the unofficial fifth person who knows what the secret is. If you must know, I will tell you
THERE IS NO SECRET
Now you know too. :D
FORGET THEM. MAYO IS A SHIT HEAD. THEY ARE WELCOME TO HIM. IF YOU REALLY THINK THEY ARE DOING IT TO STIR SHIT ON THE BLOG AND GET ATTENTION, STOP GIVING IT TO THEM.
You are though, pretty consistently.
?
Your point being....?
Thanks RW.
Obviously some of these anons need to unwind before going to bed
hey there resurrected wreck. :)
This blog is going downhill really fast. Too many cliques. I agree that the secret thing is going to leave a lot of hurt feelings.
I am well Rw
Anon @ 2:39am: seems to me there are better ways of doing that. But hey, whatever turns their cranks, I guess.
*checks the admissions list*
Yep! You should be good! Make sure you wipe your feet on your way in the country.
-A
Amy, popcorn sounds good, but I had some earlier on
I would love some popcorn, A, but I just came home from a BBQ & I'm stuffed!
Toujours, you are just a spiteful mean spirit after all.
THERE IS NO SECRET
Now you know too. :D
I'm sixth!
-A
Here is "the secret".
(shh, don't tell.)
This blog is going downhill really fast. Too many cliques. I agree that the secret thing is going to leave a lot of hurt feelings.
-----------------------------------
Maybe more people here are in on the secret than you realize, they are just better at keeping it a secret.
I already know that secret, Redrum.
Ooops! Did I really just give myself away??
Huh? is Mayo gonna be on Oprah?
yay! thank you amyranth! i promise not to get your beautiful country muddy.
and i'll always say "please" and "thank you".
o can-a-daaaa...

(when does the curling season start?)
Amyranth said...

Now you know too. :D
Well, shit, now we all know the secret!
2:35, I keep a bag or two no hand simply for days like this.
*wink wink, nudge nudge*
RW, I just had pasta, and now I'm eating dry Cheerios.
-A
For you TJ, welcome to the country!
Teej, curling season has come and gone. But thanks to Country Canada, you can watch curling all year round!
-A
oh, thank you, resurrected wreck. *wipes a tear from the eye*
and i'm so relieved, amyranth! because spending the weekend not watching curling is like wasting a weekend, you know?
Teej, wait.
There's one last thing.
You have to pick your beer.
*solemn nod*
-A
I have several relatives who would agree with you on that, TJ.
I have a secret too!
Anon, what's your secret?
-A
Well, don't tell us, anon, otherwise it won't be a secret anymore!
Can't say, IT'S SECRET!
Aw DANG!
Oh well. I guess I can't tell you my secret then either!
-A
I bet you my secret is better than yours!
I've got a secret as well.
I like oranges.
I like cats!
But that's no secret.
Battle of the secrets, anon?
...i have to pick my beer.
oh. my. god.
but...
i'm a whiskey&coke drinker!!!
D:
(resurrected wreck, my ex was of that opinion, there for awhile. *put-upon sigh*)
My secret could beat up your secret!
Be careful, TJ, picking one's beer is tricky!
Yep, RW. This blog is sooo full of them! *sarcasm*
I like turtles.
RW, my secret, is so secret, it's bigger and better than any other secret, past and present. There!
My secret could totally PWN your secret.
-A
Turtles are cool, MJ :)
RW, my secret, is so secret, it's bigger and better than any other secret, past and present. There!

Well, my secret called your secret and boy are you in trouble!
So are cats RW :)
MJ: :D
Secret smackdown, yay!
i'm skeered to pick my beer, resurrected wreck. it's like i'm being taunted by artesians.
Hey anon don't tell anyone I told you but Rw's secret called your escret a pussy.
---------------------------------------
Hey Rw don't tell anyone I told you but Anon's secret gave you the finger.
I'm off. Have a good one.
(Get some sleep, you.)
I heard RW's secret farted on the Anon's secret after the Anon's secret stole MJ's secret's lunch on the playground.
My secret is a tattletale.
-A
Goodnight Redrum
*whispers* TJ, don't pick Molson. It's swill.
Have a good night, Redrum :)

Hints is not the same thing as the truth. Toujour drops hints and then when you ask her she does "giggle" and acts like she doesn't know what you're talking about. So that is not "earth logic". If it was then she would own up. If you know a secret fine. But when you use it to taunt other people then it becomes wrong.

*whispers* and stay away from Moosehead. It's frequently called Moose Piss.

Well my secret hear that if you are looking for a good time, call Amy's secret. It has a big ass.

That's bullshit, Toujours is playing a "popular girl" game and every one else is picking on the people who are upset and angry because they are left out AGAIN.

GET OVER IT
thanks for all the beer advice...but the last time i drank beer, it was not a good experience.

to wit:
i need to go to bed, too.
good night, everybody. sweet hops-filled dreams. :)

G'night Blog.
G'night Mayo.
G'night lurkers.
G'night Molson.
I'm taking my secret and my ass off to beddy-bye....
mayo,
it's almost the full moon. the ground is already silvered from her light, and i was tempted to go outside tonight, just to bask.
but i'll wait.
it's been awhile since i've had the opportunity to stand in the night under the full moon. no since jumping the gun. *grin*
but i did have a moment tonight, after dinner, when the sun was gone from the sky but it's light hadn't quite left the land.
i found myself outside, standing on the back patio, looking at the tops of the trees in the woods that cover the back of my folks' property.
oaks, and dogwoods, and maples...and trees i don't know, only knowing the rainforests from seattle.
but though i didn't know their names, i still knew them. and i just stood there, watching the tops of those tall, friendly, mysterious, marvellous trees, watching them moving in the wind that i couldn't feel, watching them sway in the currents like seaweed in the ocean.
i could hear small sounds around me, crickets, little birds settling down for the night. i could feel small kisses from the breezes that reached down across the ground. i could smell the scent of spring still lingering on the nearly-night air, green leaves and awakening soil.
and the murmuring sound of the leaves from above replaced my thoughts.
it's good to be human. but it's even better to be animal, sometimes.
feed your soul, mayo-sama. feed it the best and most nourishing food you can find.
you won't be disappointed.
dream well, and wake refreshed, my friend.
"no since"...
"no since"!!
ow ow ow ow ow ow ow ow ow!!!
damn, but that typo fairy's got a mean bite to her.
it should be no sense, of course.
ow.
now my pride hurts.
good night.
*limps off*
Anons, can't you see that Toujours is crazy and only THINKS she knows Mayo? My god, you should revel in the knowledge that you know that she IS crazy and laugh at her for trying to get us all to believe she met Mayo.
So just do that. Stop showing her how annoyed she gets you with her fake "knowledge", that only satisfies her and makes her continue. Okay?
Remember, she only THINKS. As does everyone else who hints and knowing anything about Mayo. Don't waste your time on them.
*is very late - or early - again*
Good morning/afternoon/night Mayo, SS, Ergo, Martha, RW, FASC, TJ, Possum, Kass, anons, lurkers, watchers, secret keepers and gate keepers of blogbelieve!
How are you all on this lovely Sunday? I hope it will lovely for us all! I see we had yet another serendipitous Saturday night. Oh, the joy! *wink*
REDRUM: Good to ‘see’ you again. I hope you’ve been well!
Thank you for letting us all know the BIG SECRET. The Law Of Attraction? Like attracts like. Who knew? ;) and :p

Editorial note: while opposites often attract, they also usually drive each other away!
Ergo: Great shirts, honeybunch! I’m sending best get well wishes to B and a big smoooooch to you!
Elena: Sorry to hear that Battle Sprint did not turn out as well as you hoped. Oh well, REMEMBER THE ALAMO!!!!!
FASC: Happy birthday to the wee one! I hope he (and mom) has a wonderful day!
Amy: Sorry to hear about the recent roommate trouble! Yeah, NEVER trust anyone whose favorite drink includes JAGER!
Miss T: *waves and sends hugs* How are you? You are missed!
TJ: Right you are! The full moon is approaching. May 19/20th - the Full Flower/Corn Planting /Milk moon! I won’t be planting corn or milking cows; but, I do hope the flowers in my neighborhood (and yours) are blooming in abundance!
To think about today:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
We tend to forget that happiness doesn't come as a result of getting something we don't have, but rather of recognizing and appreciating what we do have. Frederick Keonig
Envy and wrath shorten the life.
Ecclesiasticus
Envy eats nothing, but its own heart.
German proverb
Let go. Why do you cling to pain? There is nothing you can do about the wrongs of yesterday. It is not yours to judge. Why hold on to the very thing which keeps you from hope and love?

One more thing.....
For ALL who appreciate the words of Rumi:
*noticed a few*
We Are Three
These spiritual window-shoppers,
who idly ask, 'How much is that?' Oh, I'm just looking.
They handle a hundred items and put them down,
shadows with no capital.
What is spent is love and two eyes wet with weeping.
But these walk into a shop,
and their whole lives pass suddenly in that moment,
in that shop.
Where did you go? "Nowhere."
What did you have to eat? "Nothing much."
Even if you don't know what you want,
buy -something, to be part of the exchanging flow.
Start a huge, foolish project,
like Noah.
It makes absolutely no difference
what people think of you.
Goodnight and sweet dreams to one and all!
hey all who wander through blogland
goodnight CC Redrum TJ amyranth RW ad wendy entropy
wendy *smoooooooooooch* and thank you to you CC and entropy and everyone else again.
and I know a secret - Elena hasn't been around tonight she asked me earlier to post her goodnight as she wouldn't be able to, so ya boo sux to the anons who thought she was
and which I shall do right now..
Mayo
Oh damn I have no time to write this but I’m gonna do it anyway. Did that just make sense at all? Probably not but since when do I make sense? So since I don’t make sense…
Spent the day battling the evil Sprint Empire and working on my water garden. I really enjoyed being outside and it looks so nice now. Has a fountain and rocks from all over the country. I had just got it all done and Jake decided that the pond looked nice too. Yeah, he got right in and stood there while the fountain sprayed water over him. Damn dog. Oh well I guess that was his way of saying he likes it.
So did you have a good day? Battle any cell phone companies? Work on any water gardens? I’m betting not but I hope you did do something that made you happy. Oh no, I’m being summoned. Gotta go. Take care Mayo. Tomorrow night things are back to normal and I’ll be able to write without looking over my shoulder. You didn’t just cringe did you? I swear I think you did. No, you didn’t.
Night Mayo
Elena (rushed and hushed)
so mayo have a nice day? Did you get hassled by random unknown people for no apparent reason apart from them wanting to cause trouble? No? Good for you.It's a shame some of the lovelies have to put up with it, but comes with the territory I suppose, and as you said we are tough and we do stick together. So how's the weather there? It's bloody cold here, nearly full moon, clear sky ad cold wind, yep winter is fully on it's way and maybe a bit early this year. Hope you're well and happy,.Wishing warm smiles , comforting hugs and sweet kisses to you and yours much love EP xx
SS how are you? I hope you're well. Reading is a good pastime it's educational enjoyable and relaxing, hope you are experiencing all those things, sending you love, calm, relaxation and peace and to those you love lotsa love EP xx

good morning mayo!
i am a bit late today but its sunday so it doesn't matter!
hope you have a lovely relaxing sunday, maybe with your family or something. sundays are family days really. take care!
SS nice to see you were around for a bit!! when you do read here be sure to skip over the huge amounts of bitchy and evil comments from the ones with no name!! the nasty ones obviously!! the nice ones are good to read!
take care SS and have a lovely day!
morning family!!
hope we are all OK?!
hi ergo and wendy and anyone else around!!
FASC: Happy birthday to the wee one! I hope he (and mom) has a wonderful day!
thanks wendy! you are so good at catching up with everything that goes on here.....and i am so bad at it!!
so yes it's my little boy's 3rd birthday today!! bless him! this is the first one he actually understands really. i'll be sad not referring to him here as the 2 yr old!! but thats the way it goes!! its just the years are moving a little too quickly for my liking! i cannot believe he is three!!!
three years ago now......hell i really don't want to go back to that! heavily pregnant (and i was one of those pregnant women that were ALL bump! from behind i didn't look pregnant at all which made it more of a surprise when i turned round!! like oh look you are pregnant!!) and i had a very bothersome sacro iliac problem associated with pregnancy!! basically my hip was so painful and i couldn't walk without limping!! just awful! i remember struggling, walking round town trying to get up to date on all the things i needed to do before the birth and people were looking at me like "poor thing! she is really struggling!" and god i was! i remember thinking "how the hell am i going to give birth when i can't lie down without being in pain!!" like even before the labour starts i am in fucking pain!! really worrying, i kinda thought i might have to do it on all fours which i really didn't like the idea of!! just something very yuk about that!! so in the end it was great cos the midwife said that the birthing pool was free so did i want to use that? now normally that kinda thing isn't my thing at all! but i thought hell why not atleast my hip won't hurt so much!! and it was really good. water is a natural pain reliever! quite amaaaaazing really! still hurt like meffing hell in bolded capitals though!!! but bearable! so i would recommend a water birth to anyone here who is thinking of it in the future?? my least painful labour of the three and he was the biggest baby so that must say something!!
right i think i have successfully put EVERYONE off their breakfast (or other meals down under folk!)
ok so i rambled! sorry about that!
have lovely days everyone!
love to you all!
PS my little boys fav pressie was a dr who tardis that has sound effects!! his eyes were wide as saucers!! bless him! ok so its for 5yrs+ so no doubt he'll break it!! probably put in the bath or something!! yep i can see it happening!
we got a nintendo wii for christmas and within 2 weeks he had bitten the wii sports and the mario discs and ruined them! we replaced the mario one about a month later when we had gotten over the fact that they cost so fucking much money!! and then not long after he bit that too! not really being naughty but absent mindedly putting discs in his mouth!!!!! so then we got mario carts which is OK still but now he has broken the actual wii box thing by posting coins into it!!!! fucking hell!! so we are claiming on the house insurance but there's a £75 excess thingy charge!! which the boy will be paying for!!!
kids!!!
good lord that was long! sorry bout that!
Goodevening/morning everyone!
Happy Funday everyone!

*makes a mental note to hide Leebert when Ergo is hungry*
And sending positive thoughts for B.
she was 20 and he is 25, so they are absolutly wankered.
Fimmy, lol!, but, huh?
Happy birthday wishes for your little niece =)
FASC, Undervalued and unappreciated days have an accumulation point, that's for sure. I hope today feels, and is, brighter and better for you.
Happy Birthday wishes for your little fellow as well =)
Referee anon @1:09am, lol!
SS, Nice to read you are doing well! So, have you been reading reading horror, humour, fact, or fiction? Or BB - the ongoing serial? =)
Mayo,
Feeling too shy to mix it up with the masses, or just too slow at commenting, like me?
Hells bells, we need to make a pact to do it in the rush hour at some stage. Let's grab hands and take the plunge.
*note to anons - that was neither proposal nor proposition*
*though possibly a little misleading ^_~*
So what flavoured popsicle are you?
You don't need to sign in, and just skip the optional page =)
Have a great day everyone!
Hi Far!
and within 2 weeks he had bitten the wii sports and the mario discs and ruined them!
Your little fellow gives new meaning to the word munchkin =)
popsicle test:
BLIMEY I'M A LIMEY!!
Slightly Tart, and mostly sour you like having that effect on people. Sarcasm comes easy to you, and laughing at others is a favorite pastime. Slightly wicked, with a bite ~ make sure they know you might leave a few marks...
ooh i think i'm lovely really!! may be a little evil??!!
thanks PP that was fun!

*runs off chasing tumbleweeds*
Hello citizens of Blogbelieve!
How are you doing on this fine Sunday?
Let's go for their lunch as well! You forgot to mention the part where the baby feels like it is taking the wrong exit >_<
LOLZ PP!
i know it is indescribeable isn't it?!!
very strange and very woah wtf!!!
night PP!
hi/bye siobhan!
can't stop!
hope you are feeling better today?
Hi and bye Fasc!
Yes, I'm feeling much better. Thank you!
Hello Blog World
I just spent the last half hour catching up on what went on last night. (terrible waste of time)
Don't know why I bother but I'll say it anyway....
I was not on the computer last night. I was not an ANON
Believe me if I'd been here and saw some of the shit that was being said I would have commented. UNDER MY NAME
I DO NOT ever comment as an anon.
I have said what I think of anon's many times. Evil one's that it. I want to thank the nice ones that do speak but as for the rest of you...Believe me I will never be one of you. I will never say nasty, hurtful things hiding under anon. If I have something to say you'll know it's me cause I'll be in blue. Oh and yeah, I'm Laverne sometimes but if you've been following along you'd know that. Not secret there. No secret anywhere. Have I met Mayo? NOPE
So with that said I have to go do yard work.
Have a great day friends.
Shine
:)
WTF? You anons need to leave me out of this. Get lives or something for christ's sake. Idiots. Why are you trying to cause trouble and set people against each other?
With that out of the way, hey guys. Want to let you know that our little starling died overnight or perhaps early this morning. That happens nine times out of ten with these early starlings. They are weak, and unfortunately not meant to be. It's better that way because if they lived to mate they would weaken the strain. But it's still a sad thing, the poor little dear.
Toujours, thank you for the name. It was a very sweet name.
Gotta run out and buy worms today, then I have tons of yardwork and gardening I can't wait to catch up on. It's ridiculous how I live for this stuff. ^_^
By the way, in case you morons didn't notice? I was the one who understood that there was no "cabal" from the first.
Ahhh, but why would I count on you lot to understand something like that? It requires thought.
Here's what I think:
Life is a game of constant struggle. And you're thinking, "Well, duh. I could have told you that." No need to, because I just did.
(Perhaps I should have listened, really listened, to the words.)
Maybe I could take it one step further and say that life is a constant battle waged with yourself.
(And so it goes, and so it goes.)
The daily grind -- out there, busting our asses, moving at breakneck speed. Consciously paying no attention to shiny glass and wishing wells.
(A penny for your thoughts.)
But, isn't life about us? Me, you, and no one else. Isn't it about trying to figure out just what the hell you're doing on such a fucking enormous planet? Isn't it about finding out who you are?
(Who are you, who who who who?)
One wrong roll of the dice and we're out of the game.
I think I'll never know.
Goodmorning Mayo, SS and Family!
Hey SS,glad you stopped by yesterday.Thank you very much.
Have a fantastic Sunday,guys!
I can’t stay now,but I’ll see you later.
Love you all!
*HUGS & KISSES*
PS:ALBATROSS and Jules,check you email.
Thank you, Bella. ^_^
Mono no aware, that's really, really, really odd. I wrote a poem called that a few months ago. I saved it; it went like this.
It's a sliver in the sky,
what you prize I think
above most things you see
and under it, over it, through it,
scattered blossoms are
mono no awaré...
They are my thoughts,
floating and fleeting in the
cold clarity of the wind,
mono no awaré...
They are memories,
from here they look like
silver scales in the light,
what used to be a dragon
but is now
mono no awaré...
They are my future
from where I stand,
possibilities many and random
not making their way
but carried on the hopeful wind
and disappearing under
the smiling moon, eventually,
mono no awaré....
How about this then? Arigatou gozaimasu! :)

for you morons and idiots that didn't get it --- she's the only one capable of educated and intelligent thought
Gotta run for now. I'll get to you guys's emails later, and THANK YOU. :D
I want to say that in every language I know and some that I don't. ^_^
I was talking to the idiot anons who were accusing me of things; yes, they are incapable of noticing things like that.
Wow! And so are you.
Bye!
*waves like a crazy lady*
Hey!
Dilemma: You want to assail someone’s intelligence, but you don’t know quite what word to use, which calls into question your own intellect.
Materials Needed: An IQ test would be helpful, but you can get by on just your wits—provided you have enough of them.
People You Can Impress: Well, idiots and morons both, for starters. But also psychologists. And you really, really need to impress psychologists, because—as you’ll see—you really don’t want them to think you’re an idiot.
Quick Trick: These days, the words are completely synonymous. But back in the dark days of psychology (which is to say until about 30 years ago), there was a difference, and here’s the quick trick psychologists used: Ask a question. If your subject answers, they’re a moron at worst. If they don’t answer, you might have an idiot on your hands.
The Reason: Anyone who says that political correctness never accomplished anything worthwhile should take a long, hard look at the lot of the idiot. In 1911, French psychologists Alfred Binet and Theodore Simon created the first modern intelligence test, which calculated IQ based on whether children could accomplish tasks like pointing to their nose (honestly) and counting pennies. The concept of “IQ” followed soon after, and psychologists fell so deeply in love with the scientific nature of the tests that they created classification systems. Any child with an IQ of above 70 was considered “normal,” while kids above 130 were considered “gifted.” To deal with kids below 70, psychologists invented a nomenclature of retardation. Those with IQs between 51 and 70 were called morons. Morons had adequate learning skills to complete menial tasks and communicate. Imbeciles, with IQs between 26 and 50, never progressed past a mental age of about six. And the lowest of all were the idiots, with IQs between 0 and 24, who were characterized by poor motor skill, extremely limited communication, and little response to stimulus.
The moron/imbecile/idiot classification remained popular, amazingly, until the early 1970s, when people started to note that the developmentally disabled have enough difficulties without being saddled with condescending labels. The 70s saw the move away from institutionalizing the developmentally disabled, and it has since been shown that the majority of people with IQs below 70 can lead productive and independent lives. Not to sound like Tom Cruise or anything, but the real morons in this story were the psychologists. Today, the classification system is one category broader—moron, imbecile, and idiot have been replaced with mild, moderate, severe, and profound retardation—and diagnostic factors other than IQ are considered in making a diagnosis.
Also Good to Know: The doubly offensive term “Mongolian Idiot,” which in the 19th and early 20th centuries was an actual, literal diagnosis, derives from people’s belief that individuals with Down Syndrome—with their wide-set eyes and round faces—resembled Mongolians. In fact, before the British physician JHL Down (1829-1896) lent his name to the chromosomal syndrome, Down Syndrome was known merely as “Mongolism.”
And there you have it. Now you know whether you’re working with idiots or morons. Need more clarification in your life? Check out What’s the Difference, a mental_floss book written by John Green, Chris Connolly, Christopher Smith, and Maggie Koerth-Baker.
good morning all. i took pickled possum's popsicle test...
i'm cherry, don't remember the name they gave it, but get this:
Free and wild, cherry flavored folk don't need a crowd to party with, you ARE the party! Though some may call you mental and hand you a helmet to wear on the short bus, if life were a rollercoaster you would be in the first car with your hands over your head screaming obscenities.
oh yeah. i giggled. hell, i lol'd!
anyway, kapunua, i'm sorry to hear about the little one. i know that's the way of things, but you still want every one you rescue to make it, don't you? much strength and health to the next winged refugee.
Hi everyone!
If you do not hear from me, check my blog, as i will be a way for a while, and have very limited time online.
So how is everyone today?
Mayo,
I never have addressed your post.
I did warn you that if you put on the nose and funny shoes you would become the clown.
But seems you are the one laughing now.....good for you.
Apparently, I'm in the first car screaming obscenities, too.
Bahaha!
That's totally me.
*waves to BlogBelieve*
Hi Everyone!
I'm so lazy today!
How are ya'll?
Hi Sdock, hi Mustard,
I'm being lazy with ya.
Can I be a loser and say that I got comment 1776?
And now, for a United States History lesson...!
Nah, just kidding.
Hey, PJ!
Hey, Sdock!
Hi PJ, Hi Mustard!
Right now I am totally watching a program about the freemasons on The History Channel. How nerdy am I? I eat this shit up with a spoon.
Mayo,
Dude, I am so not ignoring you, I swear. I'm just so lazy today. Would you mind if I gave you another free pass?
Nah, I didn't think you would.
We'll talk more later.
Love to YOU Always,
S
p.s. That's what Sundays are for, right?
Hey, the History Channel rocks pretty hard sometimes.
I watched some sort of program on there about how they make stuff. I watched them make one of those sub-whoofer speakers, like, you know know, that big ass monstrosity of a noise maker? Yeah, it was pretty cool to see.
good morning everybody
*waves*
and a special goodmorning to 3.13am. yeh hello lovely, sorry you were wrong but heck, nice of you to think of me whilst i was in dream land. sorry, i didnt dream of you, i was dreaming of my giant piece of cheese but there is nowt new there is there love. i hope you had pleasent dreams also, it was a wee bit late as well at that time.

bye guys.
back from email land.
hey mustard, good to know i've got company up there on the rollercoaster. *grin*
there's this one history channel show i used to love (back when i was watching tv and not addicted to the internet...), "modern marvels" i think it was called? anyway, it would go through and show the impact of one little thing, like hand tools or something. it was amazing, truly.
there was an episode about the kitchen, and how the development of the modern kitchen was all tied in with the curse of history and culture. totally fascinating. i eat that stuff up.
er. no pun intended.
Hi TJ!
Happy Birthday to Tornado and Little FASC!
hey there sdock. :)
oh and yes! happy birthday to all the birthday girls! *hands out balloon bouquets*
every itime i make a comment, i am reminded that i have a "nasty, mean small heart".
it puts the music from "the grinch" in my head...
*grin*
Yes, TJ, you are just pure evil. What maliciousness are you plotting now?
:)
*waves Hi and Bye to Fimble Venoms Sock Star*
Pardon me if I'm sentimental when we say goodbye
Don't be angry with me should I cry
When you're gone yet I'll dream a little dreams as years go by
Now and then there's a fool such as I
Thanks, TJ. There will be more birds and more success stories. It's awful to say, but I'm used to it when they die. Once in a while it'll get to me, if I really had some hope or if I get attached, but usually I see it coming and it's no big deal. That sounds so cold and all but, well. I guess it is.
Hey Solly, Fim, Splash, PJ and whoever the hell else is around!
I gots to get working while the day is young. :) Catch you guys later!
Wow, that one's been covered! Didn't realize that. Thanks for posting those. :)
Well, I am a wild cherry flavored Popsockle.
Interesting.
Hi Jules, Bye Jules! Sorry to hear about the baby bird.
Bye K, I'm still here just working.
MUSTARRRRRRRRRRD!!!
Remember, Raconteurs!
There's a lot of cherries sittin' in the front car, flipping birds and whatnot.
Look out! Here we come!
HAVEN'T FORGOT!!!
*IS SEXCITED*
It might be Tuesday though, 'cause there's another one I want to nab and it's released Tuesday. Kill two birds with one stone, and please pardon that phrase given the current situation.
aw, sdock, i'm not pure evil.
just 99 and 9/10ths %, maybe.
*whistles innocently*
you're off working now, kapunua, but i don't think it's cold -- that's how it is. i spent a good portion of my childhood on a farm, and you learn that. not all animals will make it, no matter what you do. especially with the birds -- they can be fragile. no matter what we did, we'd always lose some chicks each year. there's like a threshold they have to pass before you know which ones are truly strong enough to make it.
i don't think i could keep doing it, though, so more power to you and all your successful rescues!
TJ,
You are no more evil than I am. (Coming from someone who was once nicknamed Lucifer on the blog). Heheheheh!
Mustard,
Okay, I guess you can wait til(till) Tuesday. I want to go get Gavin but I am not motivated enough to drive to wal mart. Is that terrible? It's another beautiful day here and damnit I want to lay in the sun again, but my face is still really red. So, ummm maybe I will just draw or maybe I will sit in the corner and throw out rhymes and rambles. Who knows...
Yeah, a lot of cherries in here for sure.
i really need to hear your voice today.
yes, YOU
sdock, find some shade to lay in...that way you can still be out in the wonderful fresh air.
it's what i want to do later on (once i'm done with my chores).
Who? Me?
Anon,
You took the words right out of my mouth.
I have "Feeling Good" stuck in my head.
It won't come out.
