Seein's how kendall wants to bring Edgar Cayce back from the dead, I thought a seance might be in order. We've all got someone/something we want to bring back. I'd like to bring back the 20-year-old jenny ... unscathed, unjaded, boundless curiosity and energy ...

Yes I would indeed like to go back to the time of my son's conception, and withdraw early.

Thinking of the amount of hard drive space I could have saved Mr. Spiegel let alone all of life's meaningless questions that never required an answer in the first place, and 500 fewer archived threads attributable to my son.
I seek all Mudcatter's forgiveness for my one true moment of utter weakness and succumbing to the pleasures of the flesh. (Now if I could just remember her name.)

You will get no absolution here sir, but I admire your honesty. I suggest you belay fornication with freakazoids in the future.

Moonchild,
If I understood Spaw correctly, Edgar requires Viagra and not a seance.

I wonder how Shambles would have turned out had he been a product of Viagra?

Maybe he could host our Seance.

(I thought he did that anyway)

Moonbaby,

We can't do much about the 'unscathed' thing or even the energy at times, but we 'can' still be unjaded and have boundless curiosity.

Bert.

SS .. A seance is probably safer and cheaper than Viagra, don't you think? And just think about the creative possibilities ... the personification of "Edgar Cayce" ... with all the appendages and a big smile in his face.

Bert ... Thanks for trying, but for me it's a goner ... I'd just like to "see" it one more time.

'spaw ... I appreciate the thought, but my bifocals are in the shop and I can't locate my magnifying glass.

Amerigin ... that's a great wish ... I, too, wish I could bring back my grandparents and their siblings. This time I will record the music and stories. Promise.

Do not stand at my grave and weep.
I am not there, I do not sleep.
I am a thousand winds that blow,
I am the diamond glint in snow.
I am the gentle autumn rain,
I am the sunlight on ripened grain.
When you wake to the morning's hush,
I am the swift uplifting rush
of quiet birds in circling flight,
I am the soft stars that shine at night.
Do not stand at my grave and cry,
I am not there, I did not die.

Does anyone here besides me recognize that this seance is to raise Edgar Cayce, Kendall's (as Spaw so elegantly put it) whang!!!! I read Peg's poignant poem and burst out laughing. Please! I feel like I am in the Twilight Zone. Help me.

Edgar Cayce? Definitely the most esoteric willie name I have ever come across...

I saw all the long lost loved ones mentioned and offered my favorite evocative poem about dying...

best of luck with, ahem, raising...

Since I started the thread, I will answer Sinsull's question. This thread was borne out of reading about kendall's "edgar cayce," however, as in most of my threads, the premise was more serious.

I started thinking about the things in my life I would like to bring back, even if just for a short time. If "you" (whoever) have lived your life with no regrets or feelings of loss for those things gone by, I applaud you. But I cannot make that same statement for myself ... there are things I miss because they were a wonderful part of growing up ... there are things I miss because I was too stupid, immature, young to have adhered to the adage "Carpe Diem" ... there are things I miss because I just didn't know how important they were at the time.

So ... jokes are fine ... realisms are fine ... and if it just jogs your memory but you don't want to share them ... that's fine too.

I would like to bring back both my parents so that I could tell them in person that I love them.
Then I would ask them to tell me What Happened. There are pieces of a puzzle missing in our family that only my parents hold the key to.

Moonchild,
I am sorry for not understanding your meaning. I certainly didn't mean to belittle your intentions. I do, in fact, live in the present after coming to terms with all the good and bad in my past. Today is my reality. I have no wish or need to call up ghosts either for explanations or reassurances.
With the importance of today in mind, I hoped to amuse Kendall a bit and distract him from his sorrows. I meant you no disrespect.
