Seanachai,

Now in Banff, Canada,

I hope you speak Japanese...I don't think you can even order a beer at the Legion in Banff in English anymore... </font>

Why is it that when anyone mentions Banff, I think of Agarn in "F" Troop ?

Because you're old?

Seanachai chin, up, old boy.

As virtuous men pass mildly away,

And whisper to their souls, to go,

Whilst some of their sad friends do say,

"The breath goes now," and some say, "No:"

So let us melt, and make no noise,

No tear-floods, nor sigh-tempests move;

'Twere profanation of our joys

To tell the laity our love.

Moving of th' earth brings harms and fears;

Men reckon what it did, and meant;

But trepidation of the spheres,

Though greater far, is innocent.

Dull sublunary lovers' love

(Whose soul is sense) cannot admit

Absence, because it doth remove

Those things which elemented it.

But we by a love so much refin'd,

That ourselves know not what it is,

Inter-assured of the mind,

Care less, eyes, lips, and hands to miss.

Our two souls therefore, which are one,

Though I must go, endure not yet

A breach, but an expansion,

Like gold to airy thinness beat.

If they be two, they are two so

As stiff twin compasses are two;

Thy soul, the fix'd foot, makes no show

To move, but doth, if the' other do.

And though it in the centre sit,

Yet when the other far doth roam,

It leans, and hearkens after it,

And grows erect, as that comes home.

Such wilt thou be to me, who must

Like th' other foot, obliquely run;

Thy firmness makes my circle just,

And makes me end, where I begun.

John Donne

... we mocked Papa Kahn's poor swimming skills on the lake yesterday.

Seems blondes can do two things at once. As in pick up the anchor and punch the throttle...

Ah, a day on the lake with sunshine, beer, Lars, dalem, and the ever tolerant Shary. What more could a man ask for?

An opportunity to give both Lars and dalem a good shove off the back of the boat, no doubt.

Papa

PS

Had it not been for the cauterwauling of Lars and dalem, I'd have made it to the blonde's boat before the anchor was up. Bastiches, the both of them. Rotten bastiches.

PPS

Lars is truly in a class by himself. No one else I know can stay completely dry while purportedly "swimming" in his Captain America Junior Fan Club swimming shorts, only to become completely wet while attempting to drive the boat back to the dock.

From your comments, I assume Lars' boat does not have a bathroom?

Seanachai, thoughts and prayers from my family and myself.

Berli, Since you are the prime evil, does that make you the anti-jjr?

Rune

I think it would be safe to say that Berli was most assuredly anti-jjr ... in almost every possible way.

Of course that's like saying "rune is an idiot" ... one of those things that just IS. I think the original version of the Declaration of Independence said We hold these truths to be self-evident ... rune is an idiot ... but the big states made them take it out.

Jefferson folded, the wimp.

This is what happens when I stop checking the internet from home or at all during the weekend.

I am truly saddened to hear of yet another 'Pooler losing a close family member. Seanachai, Founder of our House and Order, my deepest condolences and personal sympathies with you in this time of sorrow. I will pray for your family and your loss.

Steve

Well, that conjures up a visual that will no doubt require me to drink heavily each night for an unknown length of time to stave off scream inducing nightmares.

Thanks, mate. I owe you one.

Thanks to all here for their good wishes and kind thoughts. And to all of those of you who've pointed out here, and in private emails, that those who've passed on remain within us forever, I can only say you're right.

My Dad died about 15 years ago, and I know he is still there in my heart. For one thing, at this time of the year he keeps trying to get me to turn on football games. Kat was a big Vikings fan, and now that she's joined him in there I'll probably have to watch every Vikings game this season. Fortunately they both held Green Bay in contempt, and despised the vile Dallas Cowboys, so there won't be a lot of internal arguments.

My inner Kat wants me to give each and every one of you a big, big hug.

My inner Croda, on the other hand, is strenuously advocating a grief management program that involves beef jerky, windshield wiper fluid cut with grain alcohol, and pornographic Japanese animation*.

On that note, can anyone suggest something to narcotize an inner Croda? Barring that, can anyone recommend a good beef jerky, and a windshield wiper fluid that has a piquant, effervescent quality?

*PS - What's with the tentacles? Jesus, I know those people eat a lot of squid and such, but this business with the tentacles is just plain disturbing.

I had a college roommate who used to drink Aqua Velva and hot water ... I'm not sure why but you might try it. Sure it could poison you and lead to uncontrollable drooling, swearing at the wallpaper and pooping your pants but to get rid of an inner Croda ... it's gotta be worth it.

p.s. Tentacles? They have porn with TENATACLES? Why am I the LAST ONE TO KNOW ... ummm, any uh ... links you'd care to share?

Thanks, Steve. I want to share something with you that I ended up saying to a friend the other day, while coming to grips with some family issues during this. I told her: Life teaches us that the world is full of stupid, annoying people that you sometimes just want to slap the ****e out of. Loss teaches us that we're just another one of those people.

My inner Kat says thank you for your thoughts and prayers.

My inner Croda, of course, has painted a big white bullseye on your crotch.

I just hope to all the gods that during this period of confusion I don't hug your crotch, while giving your prayers a devastating boot.

So, in other words, it'd be business as usual for the daft little bugger?

You just can't get good windshield wiper fluid in southern CA. It's pretty much just water with blue color to make you feel like you got something for your$0.89. If you want good stuff, get it imported from farther north in Canada, or maybe shipped from Alaska.
