Send me a pm with snail mail address if you want a copy.

Thanks for posting the Hugh Jass stuff. I had heard of him, but he's mostly retired / slink off by the time I got there.
Some great answers.

That was one of the funniest threads ever, Peace and Love! Thank you for posting the link.

Of course, many of us will now have to relive down those moments.

You're very welcome Margo. Hugh was one of my favorite people on Abuzz.

LOL... Jespah had a "Personal Ads" thread....

Found in recent Lawyer's Journals -

Young, energenic, Abuzz email organizer, attorney, computer
Access expert, seeks mild mannered man to help with the 12-steps
of addiction. Must be familiar with Alien children.

he sure was - man I miss him.

You know - I have been wondering - are they just gonna dump all that data from Abuzz?

It is a sociological gold-mine! Not to mention a writer's treasure trove - though accessing it in any coherent way.....oy veh!

Anon is trying to get them to donate it - I have no idea how that might work - and, as expected, he seems to be getting nothing back from the NYT.

I've been wondering the same thing, Dlowan.

Let me know if you discover some sort of portal to the virtual dump.

I spent many many creative and wonderful hours at the Cafe101.... those threads will always be my most top favorites.....

exerpts, from the very first thread.....

<Sprays his tonsils with mist from a vessel of minty-sparkle,
takes a lung expanding gulp of java filled steam and hops on up
onto tha linonium centerpiece with a gleam in his eye... 'I know'
he declares in a tone fit for a revolution, 'Lets ALL jump
onstage..' wiping a bead of sweat that escapes from his brow he
surveys tha throng of funky specimens before him.. his charisma
intact..'Afterall' he decides '..Stages ain't reeeaaallly my
bag.. Only time i, or anybody, should act like they're on them
is when they remain dancin with one foot in tha crowwwwd'>

...POOF! A smoldering pile of ash litters the floor below the
air in which the big bully stood.
"Heh! What's a woman supposed to do? Submit, my a$$!" laughs
littlek.
sfbta nods and says, "Someone sweep that mess up... we don't
know when the backups will arrive. How many of these do we have
down there littlek?"

Don't change for us, sfbta.

This Prissy character seems to ask a lot of questions. I'm
suspicious, but that could be the zinc kicking in. I wonder what
Bootsy Collins would do? Perhaps I'll have a bracelet made up:
IWWBCWD? Dig?

I was only in a few of 'em, but I loved the Cafe 101 too .. but there was way too much volume to keep up with!

i feel like trolling for some work by the eroticwriter


entertaining fella

Hi nimh....

LOL.... maybe I should have asked your permission to post a "personal ad" for you!!!.... There were some great ones in that thread.....

The Cafe101 threads were fun..... they were all written in the third-person..... we never did bring "The Suit" back from 1970..... LOL..... he's still at Madison Square Garden, at a Bootsy Collins concert..... LOL....

PaL

but with some scary views about immigrants, Mexicans ...

I just found out today about abuzz...and though I haven't posted there more than a dozen times in the last two years, I'm bloody sad.

Hehe... I just found this thread and read this written by you, Craven... teehee :-) But your spelling is wrong :wink:

and women

is it hihp, the hihp?

cool!

Thank god I can say "yep, it's me" - if I had to negate that with a no, I'd be misusing someone's Abuzz name...

Welcome!

nimh: too much RTL 4, too much Pinky and the Brain?
