Given CH's replies, I saw nothing preposterous in the least about the characterization.... JLA

This is a postmodernist reinterpretation of the English language complete with deconstruction I am trying to get with the program as you told me I should do And may I just add: There's a bright golden haze on the meadow There's a bright golden haze on the meadow The corn is as high as an elephant's eye And it looks like it's climbing clear up to the sky Oh, what a beautiful mornin', oh what a beautiful day I got a beautiful feelin' everything's goin' my way All the sounds of the earth are like music All the sounds of the earth are like music The breeze is so busy it don't miss a tree And the little ole willow is laughin' at me Oh, what a beautiful mornin', oh, what a beautiful day I got a beautiful feelin' everything's goin' my way Oh, what a beautiful mornin', what a beautiful day I got a beautiful feelin' everything's goin' my way

The "you know you want it" said to rape victims by their rapists and, by those who rationalize rapes, the "she asked for it," are good comparisons to the not very covert message CH was sending in the first case and you in the second. You know what I think? I think you know this, and although the denial/revisionism dance you have participated in has been so interestingly classic as to have been entertaining, I actually have some respect for you for feeling the shame and guilt that requires all that denial and revisionism; though not much. While we're chatting: my suspicion about X is that she feels a pinch of shame but no guilt and about CH is that he feels nothing it isn't in his interest to feel, or pretend to. I take it that you are implying that CH did not, in his frequent insinuations to Poet about their former "relationship," have sex on the brain. Well, you are the (utterly preposterous) there-were-no-sexual-insinuations guy, aren't you? The well-when-he-kept- referring-to-their-'relationship'-he-meant-they-were- friends' guy? Oh, wait, there was that business you made sure to raise of the painting he knew about, so... she kinda asked for it? Because that was flirting? Or suggestive? Something like that? You are just dying to do this over because you need to rewrite. If I had time, I'd love to oblige you. I don't like what you did at all.
