Its Bad Groundhog Day at A2K.
<fade in slowly on typed letters>
...I hate the topics...I'm tired of Swiftvets....Is there anything to talk about but Dan Rather and CBS....I'm miserable....I'm bored....
<James Earl Jones intones> Yes. The formerly happy, talkative group at A2K was indeed a bit out of sorts, bored to tears with mundane, overdone topics...until BiPolar Bear, a beloved sex-addicted hippy, started a thread exposing the elephant in the corner. People responded...threads picked up. He had seemingly saved the day!
<menacing tone> But, it was not to be. Was it some cosmic time warp? Some cruel punishment from Zeus, Barry Goldwater, Steve Apple?
<fade out in a swimmy picture>
Today, they find themselves thrust back in time...to that terrible, maddening, crushing... A2K topics malaise.
Registrations are through the roof! This is a wunnerful wunnerful thing no matter how it's sliced. I'm especially happy because it seems like there is an especially big jump in Dem registrations 'round here, but of all kinds of political activism this is one I'm really happy with. Non-partisan, except in the most broadly Democratic sense.
VOTE!
I appreciate the vote of confidence Lash....My cubs will be in bed in a few minutes...I shall smoke a bowl and put on some porn......get into a stream of consicousness mode and think of some things especially for you.....meantime if youcould run to Home Depot and Wal Mart and pick up
A 5 gallon bucket
A two inch natural bristle paint brush
25 lbs. of butter (margarine will suffice)

4 tubes of ky
Kitty Litter

A Doc Johnsons Home Speculum
short plaid skirt
hair bands
I'll meet you at Johnnys Motor Lodge room 17.....
bring a flash camera....
'Twas in another lifetime, one of toil and blood
When blackness was a virtue and the road was full of mud
I came in from the wilderness, a creature void of form.
"Come in," she said,
"I'll give you shelter from the storm."
Suddenly I turned around and she was standin' there
With silver bracelets on her wrists and flowers in her hair.
She walked up to me so gracefully and took my crown of thorns.
"Come in," she said,
"I'll give you shelter from the storm."
Well, the deputy walks on hard nails and the preacher rides a mount
But nothing really matters much, it's doom alone that counts
And the one-eyed undertaker, he blows a futile horn.
"Come in," she said,
"I'll give you shelter from the storm."
I've heard newborn babies wailin' like a mournin' dove
And old men with broken teeth stranded without love.
Do I understand your question, man, is it hopeless and forlorn?
"Come in," she said,
"I'll give you shelter from the storm."
In a little hilltop village, they gambled for my clothes
I bargained for salvation an' they gave me a lethal dose.
I offered up my innocence and got repaid with scorn.
"Come in," she said,
"I'll give you shelter from the storm."
Is it weird that I have almost everything on that list here?
There's really only one item missing completely, and there is a matter of degree on two others, but I think you could make do.
I'll courier it to you, Lash.
So, ah, who's the courier?
Can I just say something?
First of all, remember when we were saying how we're going to be all nostalgic for A2K of yore at some point in the future? Well that's already happened... I'm having fun with how FEW people are here right now, remembering the early days when we'd just kind of post anything when nothing had been said for five minutes but we saw other people were online. Like hel-LO! I wanna talk to someone! Get outta the shadows! Oh, HI! <big smile>
Hi Soz, how's the sozlette?
Can you hear me now!
:-D
Good! Today she said "I want to show you something AMAZING", led me to the refrigerator, spelled out "HI" with fridge letter magnets, and waited with an expression of high anticipation for the shower of praise and admiration. (Which was of course forthcoming.)
And I still can't hear ya. You're gonna have to trim that mustache. Or shave... shaving would be good.

If I'm reading Bear correctly, Beth, I think he'd much rather you pick up Lash and ferry her and the items to the motel as a team. :wink:
Oops---I thought this was the "Celibacy For Beginners" thread. ~~~~nevermind.
Frank, if it weren't for yer tattoo, you'd be gettin' slapped.
Or would you like that?
why not pop your head into the human interest forum, lash/sofia.
im doing my best every day to post some stories that bring something a little different and a little laugh into our otherwise dull and boring lives....
A couple of months ago, everything was Christian, or just religionista....now, all the good topics are gay... No, really.
What happened to diversity, people!! What happened to the Orange Revolution, blatant whore mongering, current events, Craven's Netflix thread, BVT, why hasn't Kiwi started her travel thread, why hasn't osso shown us her new house!!???
What is happening to my little world???
What has ehBeth been doing???
Someone do something!!! It's the malaise!!!
I thought tonight was fun. Slowish, but fun.
My bad. I was wallowing in pity. I hadn't noticed.
I'm going off to find the fun....
Hi, how's school?
Well, now I hope the fun is worth it!
School is still exhausting. I am learning how much I don't know - I don't know about research in the internet age, I don't know about bookstores in the internet age. I do, however, have good friends in high places......
Be careful what you wish for , Lash...
