Unutterably Silly So what are you doing RIGHT NOW?

[LCF]

I like the glasses too (that's what I do now, I watch the screen and like the glasses. And am a bit afraid from the bulky person behind them. Looks... intimidating somehow. )

I starred opposite Clint Eastwood in a couple of films about thirty years ago. My acting in response to the on-set instruction "Right turn, Clyde" was the pinnacle of my Hollywood areer. After that it was all downhill.

You, sir, are a wordsmith without peer!
I kneel to your genius.
And I can't see the damn pictures.

Thanks, Jon. Your response has me blushing.

I'll start understanding you when you start understanding me, VR.

I like that..."clean". It feels very much like a different word for a very similar feeling. I'm going to see things as "clean" too, from now on. "Even the grime looks clean!".

Hah, that's what you think. Because we're just gonna just shuffle around with continuity some, and though you think you've got away with #236, you'll see that we've moved you back to #235 and now you af a fwrlll in yor mouff...wai...omefing haff gone rrongg! 'Ammit!

I'm wearing a mask in the photo.

No, that's how I feel, Am! My eyes "hunt for focus" (like AF in low light on a camera, Am. You know that experience?) a bit at first, and things feel a bit distorted. I'm still getting used to it.

Hah! Intimidation is 99% perception. Most are only able to intimidate if you believe they can. I'm as cuddly as a kitten and as affectionate as a baby marmoset. I am "bulky" though - thanks for noticing (just joking...doing the "Does my bum look big in this?" thing ).

The subjective value of that comment is strictly confined by the observation that your definition of the word "cute" should be held in the context that you married a yeti (and, to spare myself from the wrath, I will point out that the cuteness scale is entirely subjective and an individual's personal measure may place such mythical beasts at the scale's more positive end. Phew, I think I got away with it. I like yetis. ).

I love you, Deb, because you always make me feel good about myself.

Thank-you for stroking my ego, folks (the only kind of stroking that is SFW and doesn't get you arrested if you do it to strangers).

Right now, I'm waiting to go to the dentist again (for a thorough teeth-clean, scraping off years of near- and under-gum coffee stain).

Cheers,
Marc

Oh, well there he is. A nice pair of crowbar deflectors, Marc. I hope they work out for you.

Remember that movie, The Death of Ocean View Park starring Mike Connors ("Mannix")? Remember that roller coaster that was in that movie?

I used to ride on that roller coaster every summer.

That's why I feel like Mike Connors and I are so tight.
