Back online again after 5 days in cool Santa Cruz. Wonder if I missed anything lol

Yeah, I'd wondered about her too. Seemed to have ducked out of sight after the kneeling on the couch in the oval office affair.

Saw Conway on the news this AM. I thought they put her in the freezer.

But if you're not aware, let me tell you: I've profound hearing loss since birth so my lack of access to 'tonal' information may impede my ability to speak and write well. P.S. My first langauge is English.

You can still edit. Imagine your writing spoken outloud. If it sounds natural then you have succeeded. It's the best way to argue in writing with English majors.

Ah... perhaps I speak differently from writing because in writing, I've more time to edit. Speaking is too spontaneous and lively so I tend to struggle at times. But thanks for reassurance, chimp3!

If your writing "voice" is the same as your speaking voice (like Bukowski and Dostoyevsky) you will be OK!

I feel that many people my age are too intelligent for me by way of using better language and superior vocabulary - I must confess my embarrassment and humility but what do you guys reckon?

@SteelCurtain Not literal, stupid joke (apparently bad also, read again). Actually reading Beren and Luthien (Tolkien). Can't recommend it yet.

stuff that carries code for its own reproduction and sustainabilitity.

Fellow heathens, what's your interpretation of life anyways?

Great but you need someone who's a great adventurer...or one with capital...

I have road trips coming up, need fodder

what book?

reading a book with an anti gravity twist and now I can't seem to put it down

Hi RozKek! How are you, my dearest thief and plagiarist who had cursed my Sun into the Moon? Hahaha!

I haven't used ebay in years

Jokes aside, it was probably deleted and I don't think the shoutbox is the right place to complain or bring it up.
