en_una_isla means on_an_island (since I live on an island :)).

Also, in my absence, I have become completely hooked on Supertramp.  Any takers? ? ? ?

I like this Supertramp song, The Logical Song:

When I was young
It seemed that life was so wonderful
A miracle, oh it was beautiful, magical
And all the birds in the trees
Well they'd be singing so happily
Oh joyfully, oh playfully watching me
But then they sent me away
To teach me how to be sensible
Logical, oh responsible, practical
And then they showed me a world
Where I could be so dependable
Oh clinical, oh intellectual, cynical

There are times when all the world's asleep
The questions run too deep
For such a simple man
Won't you please, please tell me what we've learned
I know it sounds absurd
Please tell me who I am

I say: Now watch what you say
Or they'll be calling you a radical
A liberal, oh fanatical, criminal
Oh won't you sign up your name
We'd like to feel you're acceptable,
respectable, oh presentable, a vegetable
whoa (tick tick tick yeah)

But at night when all the world's asleep
The questions run so deep
For such a simple man
Won't you please, please tell me what we've learned
I know it sounds absurd
But please tell me who I am, who I am, who I am, who I am

Wow, I love those lyrics. They really strike a chord. Thanks for sharing them.

I have a couple of Linda Fairstein's (crime author) books that have those on the cover.

Really hope Anna comes back, I knew her from my time at AFF when it was still up, before the sad events that took place during and after Amy blew her top and created the shitstorm that wiped out the forum.

Amy is a slug
I2 today is not i2 of yesteryear. It is a knitting circle. Those that participate be they nice or asshats know their place and the price to be there. Odeon is the overlord

.Benevolent if you toe the line.

Think it is I2 of old? Even Odeon is not so delusional as to think otherwise. He may on occasionally pretend otherwise but his base is that knitting circle.

Censoring/banning/restricting/moderating myself, Calanadale & Scrapheap were all not his finest moments.

Don't you mean 'slAg' ?

Hopefully, molluscs everywhere will take that as a typo and a true accident, else be prepared for several thousand billion lawsuits for defamation of character, and several thousand to tens of thousands for racism :P Although I'd expect the court action itself to both come, and proceed very slowly :P

I would be shocked if anyone heard from Anna again.
You'll never self-actualize the subconscious canopy of stardust with that attitude.

Shocked? why? anna is lovely, I really got on well with her, loved her creative writing, in her hardcore for-auties and special ed folk, by autie special ed folk style. She didn't hold back and she both kicked arse whilst being a really  sweet lass. And IMO, just to ice her human-cake, she was quite pretty as I remember her. I liked her smile and the way her eyes lit up when she had a genuine grin on her face, and she strikes me as a very genuine girl. Somebody I'd love to kick back and share a crate of good bottled beer and a quarter oz of best quality herb, half sativa sensimilla skunk, and half as indica-heavy primo hashish. She had such empathy, it'd be, if possible medically safely, to take MDMA or MDA with her, and bring it out deeply in the both of us. We are, I can tell, both very genuine, what you see is what you get, kinds of people. I reckon it'd be a blast. Probably end up lazing around on the sofas in a puddle talking autie issues of the present and activist ideas being swapped. God, that would be fantastic, just like she is as a person:)

Last I felt her, she was running like a scared rabbit. A place from which a person flees like that is not often one they feel drawn to return to.


There you go, honest answer, because it's you.
