So I have the 90 yo great uncle who sends out a lot of anti-gay, anti-environment, anti-Obama email. For a long time I was off his list but somehow I got back on recently. This morning he sent out a super offensive anti-Obama email which I actually didn't read becaus it was from my uncle and I couldn't see anything inthe first few lines. Well, his daughter just hit reply all with a "this is a really offensive email" response and my dad just now backed up. Dare I hope he might stop sending this crap?

Sadly, the time has come for me to leave DC and my precious Vortex and head back home. I wish I could take her with me. We listened to voicemails from KBD and it's clear that he just. doesn't. get it. Claims that he does listen to me. Dude, I told you weeks ago that I DON'T LOVE YOU and you were not even fazed.

The chances of us being friends or friendly is dropping like the temperature as night falls in the desert.

So I am now going to take my own advice that I gave to P-C, and become a broken record. "I don't love you. I don't want to be in relationship with you. Nothing you can say will change that."

Hah! My sis just said if I get back with him (NOT HAPPENING) she will duct tape me to a wall like the baby on First Fail.

I love you guys. Daniel and WindSparrow and all of the people here who said nice things to me.

I'll be giving a referrat (sp?) on Asimov and post-modernism tomorrow. As in, giving Asimov as an example to uber-modern society, to which our own society is post-modern, to make people understand better (hopefully) what post-modernism is about.

Barb, best of luck with the move. The second I laid my eyes on it I could smell Seattle's air again. The first time I got off the plane, and walked my first steps on a foreign land, nobody had to tell me it's abroad: I could tell it just by the air. It smelled different.

I promise to help your sister, smonster.

We'll all help. Gently, lovingly, and with much pointing, laughing, and snickering. For your own good. Be strong, woman.

In a loving way, I will aid your sister, only I will use a staple gun.

(((Smonster))) Stay strong and remember the powers of voicemail and the delete button.

WS, I remember that dress. Maybe you could set up an ebay alert for it?

Duct tape and staples. I can't think of anyone better for reinforcing your backbone than Vortex, though.

We need a velcro wall and suit! We could take up a collection. Of course then we'd have to vote on where the wall would be located. It would have to go to Bureau, and then Light bulbs, and then...

Nah. Never mind. Still--velcro suit!

We could get her a selection of cheerful colors to help - [link] and I'm especially fond of the tie-dye pattern: [link]

I would need it made to my measurements.
