Jesse I'm with you, my wake up call is the guy I met in the mid 80's heading out to cut slabs of salt from out of the ground way east of Mali, makes my life no matter how bad seem like luxury heaped on excess topped with self indulgence....
Reg...back to the tenure of your original post liek others who have been honest, I'm just like you write and say stuff only to think afterwards WTF was I on there?
One of the things that makes me contribute to forums like TB and Eric's is the chance to share, test and aquire new skills both physical and intellectual with like minded tree people...even though it may seem at times like I know what I'm saying (and doing) more often than not there's a lot of front in the presentation!!

Blinky: "No matter how much it sucks, life is good"
That is funny and profound and true.
I honestly think that has the potential to be a million $ bumper sticker, ala "[censored] happens" (I never did actually understand that one) and "life is good", and "life's a beach"
Interesting post, Reg. Still would like to know why you farewelled the Buzz before in that other thread.

Reg,
Both often make superfluous posts that are moribund and bereft of ideas yet they still manage to carry themselves with a serene and quiet dignity, much like that of bankrupt stockbrokers.
[/ QUOTE ]
Now, now, grover.
Moribund and superfluous are two words that should never occupy the same sentence in a treebuzz post.
The word bereft could have been used in conjunction with either one of those two words, but definitely not in addition to them.
Using all three is right out.
I have spoken, and will now slink back into the shadows with me quiet dignity and stuff.

Ha ha, you've got a point Herr Phloem.
I wanted to be the first person in history to use them altogether. I had a wee thought about using those 3 marvellous words in the single sentence before I posted.
You see - superflous is excessive, and moribund is near death, bereft of ideas was just a little add on. The contradictions are timeless.
If history allows for it, I will be remembered as the first bard of the 21st Century.

History will allow whatever the writers of history allow to be included in said history.
My money is on you not being regaled as the 21st century's first bard.
I would bet that GWB goes down as by far the worst "leader" of the 21st century, but hey, we needed a decider.

I merely said he will not be remembered as the first bard of the 21st century, though with the passage of time I realize that he may be as nebulous a character as William Shakespeare was, and therefore has an outside chance of such nomenclature.
There are other things he might be remembered for; Rapscallion ....
Ne'er-do-well ..... rabblerouser .......... tim craig .
But he's my boy. I like him.

But I didn't mean that in a mean spirited way.
