'cause why ? NO, nevermind.... don't know why I thought it would be cute to try to keep this going. Perhaps another cup of hot tea will wake the silliness out of me.

Okay, now, pay attention! Why oh why is it that I can post really short messages like this one, but not one with any length, substance, and deep meaning?

I had to email a fairly long posting to Naemanson and he was able to copy it onto a thread.

I just do not understand....

probably due to your ISP and general connection to the network. I have had the same thing happen to me - in fact, I can usually tell the general "health" of our Wide Area Network connection to the internet by How my postings on the Mudcat react.

Really, MMario? I won't pretend to begin to understand how these technical things work or don't work, but it is consoling to some extent to know that I am not alone.

You mean there isn't deep meaning and substance here?

Perhaps there is the deepest.... that being the simple need we all share to interact with others, to satisfy our need of company, our need of belonging, our need of sharing, our need to feel that we are contributing ..... holy smokes.... was I at the pub that long ? Think I'll put on some Ricki Lee Jones on the old turntable and turn it up loud enough to drown out my thoughts... perhaps I'll start with the track "Company". It always soothes me when I'm lonely.

gnight, gnu

Lox - This morning's weather comfirms your comment with grave certainty. I'm swaying in the wind and I haven't been outside yet. There'll be more than one pot of tea sipped today before the gale is over.
