Bing.

-- Robert & Jean Cook (Cooks@home.ga), November 10, 2003.

Is there some reason why I don't get a title Mr. RedSox? Princess This and Sir That ... and then just ... helen ... no title or nuthin. Have I offended you in some way? Perhaps you're upset that I'm gonna go off someday and be a bigshot lawyer and buy all the red socks I want and some for the mule too? Maybe a hint of jealousy already stirs in your sole? Eh?

-- helen (bright@socks.in.my.future), November 10, 2003.

Helen, your Honor, I was just wonderin'. Are you gonna take any pali-muleny cases? Or are you going to specialize in financials, and consult on mule-nicipal bonds and such? Or maybe worker's har-assment complaints? Whatever you decide, I know it'll be good, and since this ain't FRL bidness, I'll go quietly now.

(BTW, have we all told you how proud we are of you lately? Well, WE ARE!)

-- Lon (lgal@exp.net), November 10, 2003.

Sir Lon .....

I was gonna go and Title 'er, ya know, crown 'er up good and all.

But, then Ah got to thinkin' about it, and durn iffen it ain't polite to call the loverly Helen by her soon-to-known offfffffffffffiiiiiiiiiiiiiicccccccccccccccccciiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiial title:

Helen, Esquirrled.

Just doesn't sound right. The chipmunks and beavers are gonna get upset.

-- Robert & Jean Cook (Cooks@home.ga), November 10, 2003.

Well, you're a main character in all my stories, right? And I made you the HERO of the last story too. That's gotta count for something, right?

Aw poopie!

Ok, I guess you deserve your own Title. Something this important takes time, I'll have to sleep on it, ok?

Umm, in the meantime maybe some of youz guyz can make a suggestion...

-- (sonofdust@sleeping.onit), November 10, 2003.

Forgive me for being grouchy ... and please, please, do not title me. I'm not entitleable. Don't do it. "helen" is quite enough. You're scaring me ...

-- helen (entitlements@are.not.cost.effective.anyway), November 11, 2003.

Ok, if you say so, Dear Helen ;-)

(Besides, I couldn't come up with anything fitting !!!!)

-- (sonofdust@Offthe.Hook), November 11, 2003.

Dear Helen works for me. She deserves a title as unique as she is :-)

-- Tricia the Canuck (jayles@telusplanet.net), November 11, 2003.

hanging head in embarrassment... I'll make sure you all get a gazillion red socks when m'ship comes in ...

-- helen (hide@from.shame), November 11, 2003.

But, but, if we abbreviate Dear Helen, then she will be DH, now wouldn't THAT be confusing??

And hey, did someone mention BEE'S wax??? Humph!

-- Aunt Bee (Aunt__Bee@hotmail.com), November 11, 2003.

But when we use her title, do we capitaleyes it like "The Helen, Esquirrel?"

Or just use the more informal (since Lon doesn't always wear a tux and white tie and tails) "helen, esquirrel"

-- Robert & Jean Cook (Cooks@home.ga), November 12, 2003.

Good news!

Our frequent-flyer "donation" tickets to the girls softball team at Ronnie's school came through....

To make a long story short, I've got "free" tickets ATL - SAT on 11/24, returning to Atlanta mid-day 11/29.

It's probably too long a drive over from Houston or Dallas area, but I'd like to meet anybody who's gonna be close to San Antonio whilest I'm there.

-- Robert & Jean Cook (Cooks@home.ga), November 17, 2003.

Robert, when I'm out of school I'll DRIVE to see you, but right now I just can't! ACK!

-- helen (another@year.gone.by), November 18, 2003.

Robert. I hope you and your family have a great time. Enjoy.

-- Carol (c@oz.com), November 20, 2003.

Rats, can't make it. But take a moment of silence at the Alamo one evening, and a have piece of cheesecake at Kangaroo Court (up by the Hyatt, but on the other side of the Riverwalk)for me. Also, there's a ten buck prime rib at Ibiza (below the Hilton, also on the Riverwalk)- -it's about the cheapest in town, but it's only good half the time, so it's a bit of a gamble. They have a couple on weekends that tries requests, but ya'll will be there during the week, so you get to listen to the loud band from bar next door (Dirty Mary's?)! (Hey, this whole vicarious trip thing is kind of fun! Thanks. I've just had the cheapest vacation ever!) Ya'll enjoy. Oh, and you might want to keep an eye out for Ol' Lon. No telling where or when he'll show up. He's hard to miss, traveling with the Hulk an' all.

-- J (jsnider@hal-pc.org), November 20, 2003.

After a few days of fighting snow-storm followed by nasty arctic cold air, San Antonio sounds wonderful!!!! Of course by the time I'd get there, I'd probably be accused of bringing the "Blue Norther" with me. I guess I'll just stay home. *Sigh* (BIG sigh)

-- Tricia the Canuck (jayles@telusplanet.net), November 20, 2003.

Vicarious steak on the walk, eh?

OK!

-- Robert & Jean Cook (Cooks@home.ga), November 21, 2003.

Sounds like T the C needs sum sunshine!

-- Robert & Jean Cook (Cooks@home.ga), November 21, 2003.

Please check e's for FRL beeswax.

-- (HolderOfThe@FrontDoor.key), January 06, 2004.

Yes, saw ir.

-- Robert & Jean (Robert&Jean@south.whatsnow), January 08, 2004.

Site was down fer a little bit....

-- Robert & Jean (Robert&Jean@south.whatsnow), January 13, 2004.

It runs!

-- Robert & Jean (Robert&Jean@south.whatsnow), January 17, 2004.

Holder of the Keys, Keeper of the Gate, FRLian Princess;

IMO it is time to decloakify. How 'bout it?

-- (thesonofdust@de.clocking), January 18, 2004.

Decloak? In this weather?

Only if we set the thermostat at 75 F. Then, ok by me.

-- helen (decloaking@is.chilly), January 18, 2004.

Have not seen problems ...

But, then again, we were cloaked and so might not have had problems!

-- Robert & Jean (Robert&Jean@south.whatsnow), January 19, 2004.

Everything OK.

-- Robert & Jean (Robert&Jean@south.whatsnow), January 20, 2004.

Not me, Robert! I love the heat. Refrigerators are just not my favorite places to be. You're right, though, she does look like me (20 years ago... sigh).

-- Tricia the Canuck (jayles@telusplanet.net), January 20, 2004.

We lost Princess Gayla!

Now trying to reconnect her to her fruits ...

-- helen (lost@in.cyberspace), January 20, 2004.

Sniff... sniff... I got locked out. :-(

-- Gayla (privacy@please.com), January 23, 2004.

Glad to see you made it back in, Gayla!!

-- Tricia the Canuck (jayles@telusplanet.net), January 25, 2004.

Folks, I'm a newcomer, but it looks to me like our experimentation with "open" pretty much illustrates the attractiveness of an alternative of some kind. Overall, there didn't seem to be an abundance of worthwhile input in this adventure, most of it harmless. But the most recent participant, an apparent Maplethorpe protoge if I correctly remember some old reviews, must plainly be labelled an unwanted intruder, illustrating our innocent vulnerability. This illustrates that if we can't dump the trash quickly enough to get the stink out of the house, we'd better rethink some things. You out there, Jefe?

Also, as I said before, some mechanism needs to be found to seal off old threads after a certain period of inactivity. If somebody wants to refer to them, they can do so in a new thread. If we leave them all open to pollution, some worthwhile stuff could be destroyed unless we can surgically remove only the warts. I enjoyed our banter, and there has been some fine writing, high thought and quirky humor involved. But it is apparent that we must at least seek a modicum of protection or more consistent monitoring to keep an island of relative beauty afloat in the choppy seas of increasing trends toward exhibitionism and senseless destruction.

poopie cloaknow then poopie clean pleeze ok?

poopie

-- (holderofthe@Front.doorKeyONLY), May 12, 2004.

Cloaked again. Sigh.

-- just (helping@ad.min), May 13, 2004.

We're re-cloaked and using the old password. If you've forgotten it, you can write me (I think the cloak takes effect at midnight eastern). Guess we have to go back to checking our "I'd like in, please" site, okay Rob?

-- Tricia the Canuck (jayles@telusplanet.net), May 13, 2004.

I hear and I obey, Holder of the Keys.

-- (Keeperofthe@poopie.password), May 14, 2004.

Many, many thanks for the clean-up. Is it by chance the school holidays over there?

-- Carol (c@oz.com), May 14, 2004.

High Schools and lower grades get out towards the end or middle of June. Colleges and Universities end their Spring Semester in early or middle May mostly.

The Keeper of the Password has emptied the mail box at the front door, as commanded by our Sweet Princess. Just poopies were there (as usual).

-- (Keeperofthe@poopie.password), May 14, 2004.

Noted, sir J&R.

-- Robert & Jean (getingwarmer@ga.inthespring), May 15, 2004.

I couldn't get in for the LONGEST time!

Where is everybody??

Is everybody ok?
