ZB - when your comment gets eaten, it’s usually because the Heisa monster has taken it and eaten it…

It does that sometimes, zombie. We usually edit a pre-existing comment and slip the links in that way.

Okay, just updating paper progress: given up on picking two years out of a hat and am focusing on these two pieces, augustasavage and palmerhayden to base a paper about the Harlem Renaissance.

Zombie is indeed Blanca, unless I am mistaken.

CB, does she know that? Maybe you need to “talk”?

Sorry zb.

No, ‘glo, I am not.
She is a great friend and all of that, but I don’t love her the way a man should love a woman he wants to spend his life with.

Well, here I am talking to myself.
Tests have proven I am sane, so therefore, I must have money in the bank. Hooray!
Aw, rats! I’m not talking to myself, I’m talking to CB. Poor again!

apropos of the whole conversation:
Tell all the Truth but tell it slant—
Success in Cirrcuit lies
Too bright for our infirm Delight
The Truth’s superb surprise
As Lightening to the Children eased
With explanation kind
The Truth must dazzle gradually
Or every man be blind—

May 4, 2008 at 2:38 pm
#46866 Wade
in a former job, anyone who had been employed longer than 7 years had to take a personality test as part of a session with a career counselor.
i finished the test and gave it to the guy. he started to read it, and he looked up at me wide-eyed. i smiled back pleasantly. he pushed the test back across the table and asked if i wanted to “adjust” some of my answers. having made my point, i changed the answers that made me out as a homicidal ax murderer and we finished the session.

BOOM!! CB in the hizouse!!
I love editorials. People look at you funny on the train when you talk back to them though
I’ve also had a few letters to the editor printed…that feels really good.

actually, i was including that aspect of her life in the mystery part
May 4, 2008 at 2:32 pm

Vaguely, Wade. It can be extremely frustrating to take a poorly-written test. Wasn’t that what you were talking about?
I am well served for letting slip the topic of our private conversation earlier, amy!

#46848 anglophile
OK, yeah, that was lame. I didn’t get enough sleep again last night.
Amy, I am so good at taking tests, I recognize the faking good questions, such as: I read all the editorials in the newspaper. If you are faking being good, but are not, you will strongly agree with that question. But if you are really good, you know that any kind of absolute like that is a trap, so you answer “agree somewhat” if you tend to read the editorials, or anything along the disagree scale if you don’t read editorials.

Not to cast aspersions or anything, Glo, but how did you score on the faking good scale?

Glo, did the test have a “faking good” scale? You know, to ferret out those good test takers?
Brb gang.
May 4, 2008 at 2:01 pm
#46837 anglophile
Wade, I remember most vividly having to answer “no” to do you love your father? on one of those tests. Later on they asked if my father was a good man, so I guess that was the check question.
BTW, this was for a Psychopathology class. The professor, in explaining the results of my test to me, told me he had never seen a test that was so completely devoid of psychopathology. The idea that I was, at some point in my life, completely sane has always been a comfort to me.
Then again, I am an extremely good test-taker.

Glo, I believe we had this conversation privately already. I cannot make myself vulnerable in here. (jokes)
I feel the same way about height, Wade. I had a bf in 6th grade who was a lot shorter than me. I had to kneel down to be face to face with him.

Are ya’ll silently trying to figure out my invisible lover comment?
Let me clear it up for you. I was being P/A *gasp* and picking on Wade.
See, Wade said hello to me and Glo. He put the heart byGlo’s name. I’m sure it was an all-inclusive heart, but I played on that with my joke. Since he was the only one to greet, I had to make up another person.
Now ya’ll can quit scratching your heads and return to our previously scheduled talking.

amyd- I will remember the name of the parish/township (?) tonight in my sleep. Will check out the new link after I get myself unglued and write a little of my paper.

What part of Louisiana was your friend from?
As a renewed commitment to my photography, I have just changed the link in my name from my blog to my flickr page. Let’s face it, I spend more time taking pics than writing. And I’m better at it, too.
Zombie, I would love to do that. I loved being in college and learning new things. Maybe one day, when the time and money are in sync, I ill do that.
May 4, 2008 at 1:21 pm
#46818 zombieBlanco
amyd- have just renewed my commitment to some day get to the south. I had (he passed away) a long time friend that was born and raised on a farm in Louisiana that had been in his family for generations, I’ve always wanted to visit. Would love to see pics if you do get unglued and out to the museum/planetarium.
glo’- originally went to better myself, then spent two years cramming so that I could apply to a program outside of the area, then random event happened to make that impossible, now just enjoying classes that catch my eye.

Today I have to pick two of the last hundred years and write about the art movements of that time and how they were influenced by the events around them. (did everybody just hear blah,blah,blah?) I’m going to do 1926 or 7 and talk about the Harlem Renaissance and then I still have to pick another year.
