I think that what VTam is trying to do nicely, is ask you gents to please be considerate and not utterly derail her thread. To persist, after having been politely requested not to do so, is I'm afraid to say, somewhat rude.

This isn't my thread, and frankly I didn't contribute anything other than complete bullshit here myself! But if the OP requested that I stay on topic, I would respect that request.

Understanding a solipsist is categorically impossible. Whatever you come up with he'll tell you he did it. It's a metaphysical journey into the depths of Insanity, where the whirlwind blender of apparency empties into the corroded drain of Truth, and one can only spin endlessly in contemplation.

Best not to go there.

Okay, everybody, medication time now!

Virginia, dear, now be a good girl and take your Restoril. If you cooperate, maybe I'll consider untying those long sleeves a bit once your face stops being plum coloured.

Rappie, my boy, seeing as your ego is already as inflated as can be, here's a little blue pill for you.

Liz, I told you not to overdo it at work. Take your Prozac, my dear. Come on now, we'll take a nice, restful stroll in the garden to feed your tits, how about that?

As for the rest of you: Look sharp, OR ELSE....

Are you all figments of my imagination (or in the case of Mr Red, a pigment of my imagination) or am I a figment of yours or are we all just fignewtons of the imagination of the Great Green Arklseizure and should be awaiting the coming of the Great White Handkerchief?

LH is unreal? Or is he 'Unreal, Man!!'

I've always judged LH too sensible, not to mention too conservative, to ever have any kind of close contact with Shane. Obviously, another misjudgement on my part.

MOAB? I did a search, and the only hit was Monoclonal Antibodies, and I never read anything that I can't pronounce.

No, LH is Shame's alter ego (such as it is). Shame McBride was real before he croaked; Little Hawk was unreal but it now the only thing left of Shame. If this confuses you, reading MOAB from end to end will straighten you out.

Don't bother. Women generally confuse me, anyway. Along with most of life.

Rapaire, you have taken the state of mind normally termed "delusions of grandeur" and you have advanced it into a whole new amplitude of megalomania probably not seen since Nero plagued the City of Rome. Thankfully, however, you are, unlike Nero, relatively powerless. That is what permits me to still sleep with reasonable calm each night.

Shane cares nothing for your mad assertions about his supposed demise. If he wear a dog, he would lift his leg and demonstrate in a fully contemptuous fashion exactly what he thinks about those unfounded assertions.

You have lost it, good sir. You are rambling out of control down a highway of illusion. The streetcar of your mind has left the rails and is veering drunkenly off the road. The parrot of your sense of proportion is dead and has fallen off the perch. You have become unhinged. You have one foot in the loony bin and the other flailing around in empty air. You know not what you say. Your place in the coherent Universe has become officially vacant and will shortly be re-assigned to an unemployed clairvoyant rickshaw driver from Calcutta. Let's hope he makes better use of it than you did.

Tam, divergence is the way some of us think, even Japanese people like Amos (aporogise indeed!) and the most successful (i.e. longlasting) threads have to go that way.

Clever people call it 'lateral thinking,' and sometimes it gets so lateral there's no way back to the Y vector.

Rapaire is NEVER in error, nor does he ever make a mistake. The late Shame McBride is no longer with us; he, she, or it has gone to that Great Tim Horton's In The Sky (or elsewhere, in this case).

Sometimes someone will post who claims to be Shame McBride, but that person is making a mockery of Someone Who Has Passed.

Well, that explains why they don't have polyamory in Muslim countries, right there. I mean, just imagine:

Mustapha: By ALlah, I divorce thee!!
ALphapha: No, you don't!! I have a say in this!!
Mohammed: I disagree with both of you!!
Mustapha: Shut up, you two!! I divorce thee!!
Alphahapha: "No, no, no, no!!! LALALALALALALA!!!"
Mohammed: Say, where is that gal of ours, anyway???
Mustapha: She went to the souk this morning.
Mohammed: Then why is there a receipt in the trash for a one-way air ticket to Akron, Ohio?

I've been wondering that about Officer Jennifer Dana too, Amos! Clever of you to pick up on those little nuances and possibilities. The jury is still out on that question. (Maybe she's bisexual?)

Shane is not dead. Rapaire is in error. I repeat: Shane is not dead. I say again: Shane is not dead. He just smells that way.

Wal, ya gotta ask Rapaire, or peruse the Mother of All BS thread back a few weeks. It was him that decanted Shane and made him to be dead by so doing. Said he was dead, done with, late lamented, the whole nine yards, he did. Said it twice and then thrice. So mought it be. Officer Dana, well, she's getting on in years and is beginning to wonder if she might not be a Lesbian after all.

Catfish from the Chickahominy taste like the silt in the Chickahominy, no matter what you do to it. Disgusting. I like perch and large mouth bass.

Mudcat...yum! Good eating if it's fixed right:

1. Cleaned, skinned, and the fillets rolled in cornmeal and deep fried.

2. The fillets soaked in beer for 8 hours and the oil periodically skimmed off -- then treat it as any mild whitefish.

Didn't know that capitalising on the "cat" part for my metaphored title and opening post was gonna cause such a ruckus. Must be a guy thing.
