Re: “They’ll get over it,” he said

I couldn’t finish Portrait of the Artist or Ulysses. I tried, I swear. He’s very difficult to read, well at least for me anyway. I DO love his extremely poetic line “and yes I said yes I will yes!” The famous final line of Ulysses. Or something close to that.., I memorized it long ago. I just looked...

Re: I've Polled the Peasants

Mark— Really? You really heard people state that about needing to have a big war to eliminate 1/3 of the population? That is so bizarre and scary as hell!

“They’ll get over it,” he said

I’m not a religious person
but sometimes I can visualize the
people who will end up in hell,
if there were such a place,
and when I envision them,
I hope that place exists

Re: Formatting question

PPS … I’m going to file all the announcements written by Judih under Studio 8 Announcements. Sorry the software is so peculiar. I should have filed them a long time ago.

Anyway, apologies for the confusion about where to post

It was a long time ago when I was working on getting YouTube videos to play within the site, and also I had installed an ...

Re: new strings

So, you play guitar?
I did but stopped changing strings.
Retired picker. No tunes now.

How sad. Silent songs.
I can’t play piano here.
Condo living. It’s too loud.

My home is not a home when
No melodies fill the air.
