Who needs a reason?
edgarblythe is one of the finest people I have come to know online.
I hope one day I am privileged enough to meet him offline.
Just come to Tomball and we'll do lunch one day.
Logging on to join the chorus.
Hi, joeblow; long time no see.
Christ on a crutch, I thought I'd missed some tragic news, my heart sank and I started to tear up. So glad you're not dead edgar.
Hi edgar. It's just a busy time...I still try to 'spot' read. Saw your name and was enticed to the thread. Happy to respond.
A merry little Christmas to you, too.
Live R us, littlek. Hope we all live long and prosper.
though the converstations have been few, the meaning has been great.
I would add to the general cacophony of huzzahs but I am afraid of the effects of too much praise on anyone, even one as well grounded as Edgar.
Oh, what the heck....
Huzzah!
I didn't ask for it, greyfan, kicky, seed.
My life was once a joy to me,
Never knowing, I was growing, everyday.
My life was once a toy to me,
And I wound it and I found it ran away.
So I raced through the night
with a face at my feet, like a god I would write,
All the melodies were sweet, and the women were white.
It was easy to survive, my life was so alive.
My life was once a flag to me
And I waved it and behaved like I was told.
My life was once a drag to me
And I loudly, and I proudly, lost control
I was drawn by a dream
I was loved by a lie, every serf on the scene
Begged me to buy.
But I slipped through the scheme
So lucky to fail
My life was not for sale.
My life is now a myth to me
Like the drifter, with his laughter in the dawn.
My life is now a death to me
So I'll mold it and I'll hold it till I'm born
So I turned to the land
Where I'm so out of place
Throw a curse on the plan
In return for the grace
To know where I stand
Take everything I own
Take your tap from my phone
And leave my life alone
My life alone.
I thought the same thing littleK did.. I was shocked because I thought something had happened.
Granted, my conversations have been few and far between with you Edgar, but I do say that I remember them and you have always had a good voice of reason.
Your posts are not ones I ever skip over. ;-)
I hope your wife is in good health as well, and things are going great for you , as it should be. :-)
blessed be.
Thanks, shewolfmom. I am in the pink. I am nobody to deserve overmuch praise, since I don't even contribute all that much on a2k anymore. But I do appreciate the good word the thread has given me.
Hi Edgar, I very much enjoy your thoughtful posts. I, too am glad you are still alive.
Gulp. I thought you were dead when I got on today.
I also am glad you are not dead, Edgar. You are one of the members that will lure me into a thread if I see you have last posted to it.

I cant imagine what it must be like for you edgar.. watching people begin to morn a death you have not experienced yet.. haha.
Well.. that isnt COMPLETELY funny.. but funny non the less
Jeez - Thanks, dys. Everbody thinks I've died and gone to h - e - double hockey sticks. I just hope I'm that well mourned when I really do bite the big one.
Edgar--
We'll be too busy crying for the first 24 hours to be lippy in your memory.
