Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

My first inclination is to say no. At the time, those were valid comments, and were funny in context. But I'm notoriously incapable of holding a grudge, and his name is an unpleasant reminder for folks.

I say nuke 'em.

All is well that ends in pizza.

I don't know, it feels like revisionism, in a way. Otoh? They are still in the COMM.

On third hand, changing the attribution from "Gus" to "Gus, who later committed pseudoside and–well, read the FAQ" might be fun.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

You know, they occasionally pop up when I am Buff Diving and don't bother me.

Stuff popping up currently in media about Fast Eddie pisses me off completely and brings back every single unpleasant sensation from that time.

But the quotes don't.

I won't fight to keep them, but I personally am not bothered by them.

Our wings are not tired.

They don't bother me.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

They don't bother me, either.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I am a big grudge holder, but they actually don't bother me either.

Trust my rage

I say leave them; they happened and are part of our story.

They don't bother me, but part of me wants you to just put the name in quotes: "Gus." I don't know what that makes me feel better (or giggle), but it does.
