How Come You Miss Me When I Don’t Go Away?
This is my favorite post/thread of the month! I love the fact that authors start the kind of conversation that meanders into all sorts of interesting topics as opposed to staying on regimented topics.
Simon; you’ve got a diamond in the rough here. Pls members; carry on with the various points de vue. I enjoy reading them all!
Thanks Liz— and actually as I said, YOU can take credit for this effort ! ( Also I’m so glad I didn’t lose you with the toothpaste bit. That’s for Simon! ).
Merriest of Christmases to you and your Don Johnson lookalike! And didja get vaxed,so we can have dinner in Manhattan?

I did indeed and survived it all. I had a reaction to the second one (as you did) but it’s all better now.
You’ll let me know about these annoying boosters that the Feds are now insisting upon. I personally think BMD should write us a post on the topic. ?

Actually, I think it shows us a little bit of how ST was raised. Don’t hate me for saying this Simon, but I genuinely think you’re a nice boy!

She, Hypatia, is a diamond yes but not in the rough just ain’t no sunshine when her Grace is gone.

I was referring to the site, Simon.
Hyp is hardly “in the rough” at all unless she plays golf and is considered a duffer. 🙂

“Well, whew! I was wondering….but it was ok either way.”
Well it wouldn’t have been ok either way and quite frankly, Simon is in the Doghouse for inferring any such thing.
Take a look at your own site Mr. Ego and see how many men you’ve attracted. I’ve gotten more to respond to this site than you could ever have dreamed of. And you won’t have a site if you don’t have equal representation of the sexes.
Don’t ever, ever accuse me of insulting an Ette again or I will continue to use dangling participles.

Liz, darling, please chill. 🙂 I am certain that Simon was not trying to give offense! We don’t know the ratios are of men vs women who read the site, and who says that everything has to be totally equal in order for us to succeed? Who made that rule?
Simon is one of the kindest, most humble men I have ever known. Please don’t call him Mr. Ego, Liz: he doesn’t deserve that 😦

I am surely offended that he would assume I would ever insult Hyp or you or Nanda. He just doesn’t think before he speaks at times but he better start because he runs a site.

I wasnt insulted! I knew Liz meant the site was the “diamond in the rough” BUT I can see how Simon may have thought it was ME! And how could anybody be insulted by that? It actually reminds me of what I consider to be The Nicest Thing Anybody Ever Said About Me: my daughter describing me to her friends as “half cowgirl, half fairy princess” . So please everybody: I know neither Liz nor Simon would ever insult me!
