Hi Rod..
You are a nice guy in person, but I guess I can't talk to you on a
BBS. You get all upset with so many profanities...I can't understand your
posts. I have gathered you would rather not talk to me on the board, so I
will agian leave you alone... and not (he he) pick on you.
Oh, I am not chewing you out... your profanities were in a SIG that
you are allowed such things...
Take care buddy... see you at a GT... I seem to enjoy you more that way.
No, I am not going to ignor your posts, but if you have something
interesting to say, and you can say it without over-kill on swear words, I
will respond if you request it.
Ta-Ta... Have a Happy Holiday Season to You and your loved ones.

1:You are funny. One thing we all learned from BBSing is that 'attitude' of a
2:post is misleading, to say the least. Each and every one of my posts since
3:I have been back on this time has been without any animosity, none
4:whatsoever towards anyone.
5:
6:I am making conversation and I mentioned the auto thing....I picked on it
7:and then I saw that it made you uptight and then Nick got uptight and it all
8:made for some interesting reading. But my intentions were not to point a
9:finger at anyone, we all have faults, but was to make a "Rod Williams" style
10:statement, which I did. I could have well have said, "The weather has been
11:weird lately," or ......I don't know. I try to say things that are
12:different...there is an opening for my sense of humor although it can go to
13:extremes in many directions, I am having a learning experience from all
14:this. I will talk to you on the board, I thought I was.
15:
16:Oh well. You are a neat guy, you are intelligent and I suspect that all of
17:us are better persons after having taken this BBS course over the past some
18:odd years. I know I is...
19:
20:Expect a letter but I am waiting for the right time to mail which will be
21:before the end of our year. Later, Rod

1:And the reason I used words like fuck and stuff on the X-Rated sig is
2:because Michelle made a statement that I took to mean that we were speaking
3:about "cars" on an X-Rated sig. I thought I would beef up my ridiculous
4:message by using profanity in the context of talking about something other
5:than male-female sex. I talked about plants. It was a joke. I am that way

I would like a running chat with you, but as you see in your last
post you freak out making no sense and just get mealy mouthed. I like you
Rod, but you have got a problem.
I figured you would cop out on the solar, even though you make much
more then I and the solar panels are even cheaper now then when I bought
them. I knew you would put a high value on your FRNs keeping them in your
wallet rather then do anything about pollution or conservation.
Oh Rod..we also have kids...and we send both to a Christian Private
School.

I remember watching this PBS special about the brain. There was this man
that was a brilliant pianist, a virtuoso, and just very intelligent in
general. Then, one day, his brain "snapped". He only has very short term
memory. Short as in about 20 seconds or so. He can remember past events up
until the time his brain short circuited but after that, he's living every
new minute with no recollection of the past one. They showed a time when
his wife came to visit him in some sort of hospital or evaluation center.
Every 15 seconds or so, he would exclaim "Oh! It's so good to see you
again. I've missed you so much. Why haven't you come to see me? OH, I
love you..." and things such as that. He was holding her face in his hands
and you could tell when he was in a new present because of the look of
surprize and love and sadness all in one that would take over his face. It
was so sweet and so sad. He felt so happy to see her and yet couldn't
retain a whole conversation or, hell, a whole sentence. I can't imagine how
hard it would have been to leave him during such visits. He'd be thinking
you just showed up and then were leaving. That'd be so sad. But in the
next moment, he'd have no memory of the whole thing.
Can you imagine being loved so wholly, so completely, every minute of the
day? That someone would be as faithful and excited as a dog to see you
every 15 seconds? That would get intense.

It must be really intense to make love to someone with that sort of mind.
Every touch would be a new beginning. Would he be able to get a hard on?
Would he suddenly freak out that you were fucking? And what would he do if
he would start to go down on you and then wake up with a mouth full of
pussy? Scream? Bite? Think he had just started? That would be a great way
to get head for hours. And what about his orgasms? Would they last as long
as his memory or longer? And if orgasm happens partly in the brain, then
would his brain just keep going through the same experience over and over,
like a record skipping? Probably they aren't allowed to engage in sex. As
much as I can recollect, the doctors don't have any idea what happened to
this guy and don't think he will ever recover to his previous state. The
mind is an amazing thing.

2:Solar Panels had gotten much cheaper. That would be a good investment if
3:they have become cost effective. How many panels would it take to light a
4:room that is 16 X 10? How much would it cost. We invested in a new stove,

I logged in and noticed that the message base had really been filled since
yesterday, but when I scanned for new messages, there were only a dozen or
so there, not counting two score which my handy-dandy terminal
filter attributed to "non-entity," and which seemed to be filled with
garbage characters.

What a minute. I was actually complimenting you this time. While I would
have said "Christian/Non-Christian" rather than "Christian/Atheist or
Agnostic", I think we all got the point. The thing is an agnostic could be
an atheist but an atheist cannot be an agnostic. Wouldn't you want to point
out the difference between Jewish, Buddist, Christian, etc if I said
something in a vote about "all religious people..."? Or even included
Christian and Catholics together. That would be a better comparison for
what I am saying since, as I understand it, Christians and Chatholics are
different. Or am I thinking of Christians and Prodestants...No, wait! It's
Catholics and Prodestants, right? Anyway, as you see I am some what
ignorant in this area. I suppose we appear "bitter" to you since, when we
see something assumed and dismissed (like atheist and agnostic, what's the
difference?) we want to correct it. I'm sure you would do the same had we
made the same incorrect assumtions.
In conclusion, bravo on your last vote. It will be interesting to see what
the final outcome is.

I heard on Paul Harvey two days ago that this woman came out of the parking
lot after christmas shopping and found 4 youths sitting in her car. She
told them to leave - they laughed. She dropped her packages and said more
sturnly to leave - they didn't. She took a gun out from her purse and the 4
boys fled. She picked up her packages, went to the trunk and found her key
wasn't working. She then looked up and saw that HER car was parked in the
next row!

Anyone catch the article on all the kids dying in Cave Creek/Carefree? My
brother went to school with most of those kids they are talking about and in
fact, my mother held a few therapy groups with friends of my brothers and
Bran King, the 16 year old that shot himself in 1989. It's pretty weird
that an article came out about this since just about a month ago, my brother
and his friends were talking about how they know 15 people from high school
(Cactus Shadows) that have died in the last 3 years. Pretty scary stuff.

You're advice to me was good. I still think you misread me somewhat however
I am searching my inner self for defects and I thank you for your messages.
I know I mention death in most of my messages (and this one is no exception,
is it?) of late. I am going through a phase. I like to talk about things
that most people like to ignore. I still think death is a wonderful
subject.
Your messages are interesting. I think your message about having things for
'barter' is very valid. We have a lot of beads and stuff around for just
such an event. You take care. -Rod
