A pox on lamebrains and dull-wits and marjoys and peabrains, sez Oi.
People with handkerchiefs, broken-souled desperadoes of the tiny and plain. Antimacassar menders and flowerpot tenders, lost mesmerized animal spirits locked in mercantile jacketing, strapped down with tulle and velvet. Pshhw, ptui, fooey, and goddamn. Fed to the birds, their cells would at least go higher than their souls. Give them molecules a chance to fly!! Feed a clutch of nutbags to the birds today!

Fare the well, oh Twenty K.
Before long, you'll be gone away.
Ten thousand posts have started "2",
When "3" comes, we'll be done with you.

Not long ago, when you were young,
Your praises from the heights were sung.
But now you're old and in the way.
Get out of here! You've had your day!

To thee we bid "Goodbye! Shalom!"
As we truck you off to the old posts' home.
And, soon, MOABites will be heard to say,
"Whatever happened to Twenty K?"

I can barely see the point in doing it at all, but various casual friends of mine have suggested that I drop in to post here and comment on the fact that this ancient thread is soon to reach 30,000 posts.

Very well, here I am.

My comments shall be limited to a brief shrug, a slight rolling of the eyes, and an interrogative glance as if to say, "Does it really matter?"

No it doesn't. Not in the least. Ask Diane Easeby if you don't believe me.

But far be it from me to rain on your little parade. By all means, celebrate, get tipsy together at the bar, do a little dance in the street, frolic, romp, and enjoy yourselves I suppose...

This is LH's lizard-brain persona. It comes out from time to time when he reaches the end of a cold, gray day and realizes he has only a cold, gray night ahead. The temptation to dramatize complete abandon and embrace bottomless hoserhood grows strong. I can't tell you how many times Mom and his sibs have pulled him back from the brink. When that happens this personality usually submerges temporarily and one of his DIvine Archangel characters moves in, instead.

This is a second-string bit part in LH's vivid interior dramatic dialogue; as can be seen, the characterization is thin, based only on faint impressions of the actual "plum" style of speech the character wishes he could master. Notice, too, how many of LH's own traits, such as a tendency toward middle-aged lechery, have been distributed amonghis "others" to be acted out at a safe distance.

He just can't accept the fact that he ain't got a dog's chance in hell with a woman her age, let alone that woman. Talk about yer dreamers, huh?

Hi! Veronica here! That nice Colonel West is such a gentleman. He helped me get my new lemon-yellow Porsche out of the ditch. England needs more good men like Colonel West if you ask me. Young men these days are mostly a sorry lot. They don't have any idea how to behave because they've all been brought up watching WAY too much television and coddled by their mummies! It's sad, but what's a girl to do?

Well, I have found a few boys who are a cut above the pathetic average, thank God! One just has to look a bit harder.

My Aunt Penelope says I am looking altogether too hard. She really is becoming a trial! She complains about my driving (which is almost perfect), she complains about the men I date (not her problem!), she complains about the hours I keep (And I'm not that late generally. I feel that it can't really be said to be "late" if the sun hasn't risen yet...) She complains about the clothing I wear (too "suggestive"). She complains about the way I talk!!!

What a bore she has become. I can't believe that I used to worship her and hang on her every word! Anyway, she's not that smart. She should have married Nigel West, not Uncle Winston, because he's a selfish, egocentric boor. I can't imagine why a man like him would marry anyone...he's already married to his own reflection in the mirror of life as it is!

Mind you, he did pay for the lemon-yellow Porsche, so I shouldn't be so critical of him, should I? No, that needs to be taken into account.   

My wretched Aunt Penelope refused point-blank to buy me another Porsche after what happened to the zebra-striped one. And it wasn't MY fault!

Ah, well, water under the bridge. Just like the zebra-striped Porsche (sigh). I did love that car just to death. I did.

TTFN!

Hi. This is Bill. I just had to drop in and make a brief comment, because I may not be able to be here when the thread hits the great 30,000th post later tonight, as I expect it will. I've got a very busy evening ahead of me at this point. Appointments to keep, people to see, papers to sign, obligations to fulfill.

I hope you can understand just how busy a man I am and realize that I am not rejecting you or failing to appreciate just how vitally important it is for this thread to reach the critical benchmark of 30,000 posts. I can think of some things that are more important of course....but not many! Well, not too many. Only a moderate number. Not a small number, mind you, but not what I'd call an...enormous...number. We all have different ideas, of course, about what would constitute an enormous number, but I think you get my drift. At least I hope you do.

My good friend Leonard would probably say something like "Live Long and Prosper", but I wouldn't want to visit a hoary old cliche like that on good folks like you. No. I'd say something more along the lines of...

Get a life!!! ;-D

Ha! Ha! Just joshing you there. Look, enjoy the 30,000th post even if I'm not there. Make the best of it. That's the advice I always try to follow. Have a good time while you still have a time to have.

Aha. Here we see the paradigmatic tension within the multipersona syndrome, the core tension. The virginal feminine principal which cannot take any responsibility for existence, and the hard-hearted animal side which bares its teeth to achieve survival in the crudest terms, and at any price. These two aspects of LH's perfervid interior battleground demonstrate between them the alpha and omega of his inner core being, which is battered beyond recognition by the emotional forces motivating these poor substitutes.

This will take several years of intensive work. But it will be worth it. LH, have your people call my people.

Hello! Congratulations on approaching EJ9. Sorry, 30,000 in your cumbersome base 10 rather than in our much more efficient base 22. While we have found several sources of DNA here on your planet, and some of it was excellent, we are still looking for more. We sampled a "Shanne MkBrid" (or some similar nomenclature) but found the DNA was not suitable even for our disposal. If you know of excellent DNA sources please let us know.

Keep in mind, Veronica dear, that I bought you another car in a fit of extreme generosity, coupled with a desire to reduce the absurd amount of whining I have to put up with around here, and that I can repossess it at any time I decide to, should I fear that you might damage it beyond repair in which case I should lose my investment, as it were. You have the keys. You do not have the ownership papers.

If you had just run OVER the bloody dog and the old fool who was walking it across a public thoroughfare, and if had you not been exceeding the posted speed limit by a factor of 3 X, in which case you could have probably avoided them without putting the car in the Thames, well, then you would not now be needing a second Porsche, would you? And I would not be out an obscene amount of cash which I can think of better uses for.

Yellow Porsches do not grow on trees. Neither is my patience inexhaustible.

And me, I was '42.
And everyone was hanging around
To see what we could do.
There was odds to win, and place and show,
There were bets to lose, and pay.
But no-one knew who the dark horse was
In the quest for 30 K.

The jockeys were all kind squiff,
And cranky, fer their size,
And they watch the tote board all that day,
With wide and rollin' eyes.

Or higher than 4 foot four,
But their souls stood bright as the Montauk light
As we posted eleven more....

When the posting flag went down,
And every jockey swore that he
Was the glibbest fool in town.

But I stood back and held my cash;
Not that I warn't impressed,
But I knew they had to not just post
But post in pure BS!
And that's a different thing, you see,
When the clock is running out,
And 2-9-9-43 came through,
And the gals began to shout....

Well, no, Shame. It's for rotator cuff problems in my left shoulder.

You might also want to consider a leukotomy. You'll probably be happier in both cases.
