I was thinking how nicely normal things felt this morning! Neo is at Feelings which is really just another room in the coffee shop with most of the same people wandering in and out. (I always have thought of Feelings as the more intellectual room and DAR as more of a family sitcom place but both in the same house, and with a lot of common topics.) If Neo chooses to post occasionally here, that would be very nice- I for one hope he will-he left because he just wasn't feeling comfortable with several things. Just ignore him if he bugs you. We have several people who ignore others, but it's not even noticeable because they keep it very quiet. I will leave it to you but I doubt that Neo will return becuase you leave, nor do I think your presence will prevent him from posting if he sees something he particularly wants to comment on; he's not shy. THere is nothing mutually exclusive in this situation, unless you choose to make it so. But you do what you think you have to.

CobalBlue, don't be ridiculous! If you leave than nihil will leave, if nihil leaves than Ish will leave, if Ish leaves than jpmac will leave, if jpmac leaves than X will leave, if X leaves than lather will leave, if lather leaves than melinda will leave, if melinda leaves than Freddie will leave (After all Freddie needs someone to tweak) if Freddie leaves than jbe will leave, if jbe leaves than Merritt will leave, if Merritt leaves than Michael S will leave, if Michael S leaves than Bill will leave, if Bill leaves than Gaugs will leave, if Gaugs leaves than holly will leave (where is holly lately anyway), If Holly leaves than Antman will leave, if Antman leaves than Justin will leave, if Justin leaves than BlueCrab will leave, if Blue Crab leaves than Karma will leave, if Karma leaves than E will leave, if E leaves than Boulevard will leave, if Boulevard leaves than Thomas will leave, if Thomas will leave than Coug will leave, if Coug will leave than PCMOdem will leave, than Mephisto will leave, if Mephisto will leave than Ish will leave, if Ish will leave than Chicken will leave, if Chicken will leave than Tom Simpson will leave, if Tom will leave than Colleen will leave! And when all of that happens, poor old Penni will be left here with no one to enjoy and critique her bestselling book! Now, do you really want to have ALL that on your shoulders Coby?? Besides, this place needs a decent fight every 2 or 3 years to challenge the writers around here. :-) Michael

Coby, I feel like we are painted into a corner. When that happens, I always think there must be another solution. Seriously. Really. Because otherwise, there are going to be forfeits. I am thinking to take the shingles, gutter and sheathing off a corner of the roof and have a rope ladder lowered. Actually, I haven't seen a rope ladder in years, so it will have to be a poly or aluminum ladder. Otherwise, we will be hungry and miserable, as we didn't have the foresight to paint ourselves close to the refrigerator. I don't know if I can up with this situation put. I would say, let a genius like myself solve it. I have my Sawzall. I am quite sure the rest of the group trust me with these accoutrements. I have my screwdriver, and one for you; let's unscrew them and relax. Come down for coffee with me. See the creek. (Crik.) See the new park. See the bathrooms the volunteers are building in the new crikside park. Boy, that, is going to be, handy. See the balconies of the tavern and the restaurants, hanging over the creek, all ablaze with sogging rotten flowers in hanging baskets. See the nutria and the rat. See two ducks, and a lamprey what bit the dust. Mud. See me flirt sophisticutly with the waitress. See?
