TBD

TBD on Ning

Kat, or maybe it was akabukowski, once said to me that everyone thinks their life would make a good book.

She is probably right. What do you think?

Here is your chance.

Let's all tell stories from our experiences as we traveled through time.

 

Ahh, but there has to be rules. They will be pretty loose, but rules there must be.

RULES:

1. It can be any experience that you want to tell us about.

2. It can be as short as one line. Or as long as fifty. Anything over thirty will be deleted.

3.You do not have to end the story at fiftyy lines, but you have to quit writing at the end of fiftyy lines. You can not post again until at least one other person  has posted something.

This ensures that everyone gets a chance.

4.You can continue on the same subject or jump to a new one.

5. Nothing is required to be in chronological order.

6. Very Graphic Sexual discriptions should be posted in the sex talk group. You can direct us to go there if we want to read about it.

7. No one will be checking the facts 

8. Additional rules will be posted and implemented as I see fit.

Step right up and post. who knows, the next knock on your door may be Spielberg asking for the movie rights.

ok, I KNOW you're going to call this blonde, but really I'm just too buzzed to figure out- is your YES!!!!! in reference to YES, that graphic is too d@mned bright, or YES you're too buzzed?
and just for the record- it's not my fault that I'm buzzed. The manager @ PF Changs did it.

Yes to all of the above. 

And PH Chang has nothing to do with it. Mine is self induced.

 

 

You messed w/your friends back in the day when we were smoking things other than cigarettes & getting off on things other than alcohol, didn't ya, Teebs?

 

and yes, indeed it IS the manager at PF Chang's fault. I was only having ONE Margarita, but she sent a round to our table on her. What could we do? We're polite. We had to drink them.

Yep, I have always messed with my friends. The better I like ya, the more I'm gonna yank you're chain.
d@mn. I better get prepared for this February meetup. I'm gonna have my hands full, I can tell already. Sheesh - you, Robbie AND Stillgoing! ...good thing I'm bringing Ducatiman w/me, I may not be able to handle you guys on my own.
giggles , omigosh Jaylee my computer is blacking out from the strobe. Thank you!! I feel like I'm getting pulled over or something. LOL

Today is national Black Poetry Day so I'll post some poetry.

 

One day I suddenly realized I had forgotten, name age sex address race, I had found myself

What is greater than love or hate, I will tell you then,
what is greater than love is the relationship I have with the tip of my finger.

Want me to break it down? I can break it down.
It's a simple concept.

If I define myself as my thumb, I deny myself my fingers.
If I define myself as my fingers, I deny myself my hand.
If I define myself as my hand, I deny myself my arm.
If I define myself as my arm, I deny myself my body.
If I define myself as my body, I deny myself my universe.
I diminish myself.

I do not know enough about myself, because you do not know
enough about yourself, would you help me know?
I met someone and he was a part of myself that I did not appreciate.
It is not that our ego is too large; the problem is that our ego is too small.
Love is more constant than light.

I heard god call, I got my gun and waited.
When he appeared, I realized and took the gun from my head.

By having no family I have inherited the family of humanity.
By having no possessions I have possessed all.
By rejecting the love of one I have received the love of all.
By surrendering my life to the revolution I have found eternal life.
Revolutionary suicide.

Kooner, thanks for posting this. I will post to it. I have always been a fan of David altho I disagree with him on most subjects.

I do think that I meet the "Truly Oldster Set" criteria.

I'm up for it. I've made the trip from Pueblo over through Canyon City and Salida to Buena Vista a few times. It is spectacular even without Cristo. I think I wrote about some of my adventures in that area when I was writing earlier for this thread.

I like the way you think girl.
