looked @ life

greenspun.com : LUSENET : TB2K spinoff uncensored : One Thread

I have one last word to say to Mr. Yourdan, I have looked at both sides of life. Viewed the fools, who could not make their thing happen, within their time frame. I saw it all, fools, inept. No wonder I followed your foruum and questioning the "supposedly experts" They could not find their way out of a paper bag, were it put over their head. I have wrought to deal with one program from HeLL. while no one can figure out why the response time is so delaying, It is a Test case scenerio, and you have to be on site, to appreciate.

BOTH SIDES NOW-Joni Mitchell

Rows and flow of angel hair

And ice cream castles in the air

And feather canyons everywhere,

I've looked at clouds that way.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

But now they only block the sun.

So many things I would have done,

But clouds got in my way.

I've looked at clouds from both sides now.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

From up and down, and still somehow,

It's clouds illusions I recall.

I really don't know clouds at all.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Moons and Junes and Ferris wheels

The dizzy dancing way you feel

As every fairy tale comes real,

I've looked at love that way,

But now it's just another show.

You leave them laughing when you go.

And if you care, don't let them know,

Don't give yourself away

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I've looked at love from both sides now.

From give and take, and still somehow,

It's loves illusions I recall.

I really don't know love at all.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Tears and fears and feeling proud

To say "I love you" right out loud.

Dreams and schemes and circus crowds,

I've looked at life that way.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

But now old friends are acting strange.

They shake their heads, they say I've changed.

Well something's lost, but something's gained,

In living every day.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I've looked at life from both sides now.

From win and lose and still somehow,

It's life's elusions I recall.

I really don't know life at all.

Carlos, that was really a stupid response, better check your English.70's

For once I actually agree with Carlos, you sound like you are either bombed out of your gourd or just plain insane. Take your pill and go to bed, fool.

Well I got friends in low places...

My Last Word, in response to you Yuppies, with your quick flash reposnse. I suspect, you never spent one instant in a house, with only one room with heat. Guess you never wore bobby socks, still wet on your foot. Guess you never also took a cold shower because propane ran out. I was lucky, I never-ever had to "walk" to school (other than six blocks, in freezing weather, in a skirt.(Back when, girls were not allowed to wear pants) Do your research. But I am sick up and fed, with your deliverance of the "california, bobbing blonds", who say the rest of us, who lived a life different, and "it does not, never did apply. How the Hell do you think you got to where to where you are? Air Conditioning was a novelty to me. Only experienced it in a richer relatives home. Sorry, have to Stand Up on this one.

-- 70's Song (forthosewho@remember.com), September 05, 2000.

wtf?

I'll have you know that I walked to and from school... every day.... 10 MILES.....EACH WAY.... UPHILL..... THROUGH THE SNOW...AND DRIVING RAIN....

-- cin (cin@cinn.cin), September 05, 2000.


p.s.

But youre not bitter right?

-- cin (cin@cinn.cin), September 05, 2000.


Cin, your post seeks to discount mine, which was a truth, as I lived it. I wish a itchy pox upon your arms and limbs, for being so un-kind.

-- 70's Song (forthosewho@remember.com), September 05, 2000.

If wishes were horses then beggars would ride.

Have another drink why dontcha =)

-- cin (cin@cinn.cin), September 05, 2000.


Bitter, party of one...your table's ready.

As to your assumption of "I suspect, you never spent one instant in a house, with only one room with heat."

Nope, it was an apartment, over a store and we usually had to use the STOVE for heat. (Pile the blankets on, we can't sleep in the kitchen.)

"Guess you never wore bobby socks, still wet on your foot."

Nope, it was wet jeans (we didn't have a dryer). YOU try sitting on a subway in those (after having walked the six blocks TO the subway).

"Guess you never also took a cold shower because propane ran out."

Matter of fact, I did, only it was because the landlord wasn't giving us heat (hence, no hot water). And I wonder if you had hair down to your butt (there I was, sitting on the subway, pulling icicles out of my hair in the winter -- must have looked pretty funny at the time).

"How the Hell do you think you got to where to where you are?"

I worked my butt off to get where I am, and I'm not rich (not even "comfortable"); I WORK for a living.

Never assume you know your audience.

-- Patricia (PatriciaS@lasvegas.com), September 05, 2000.


Patricia:

My assumption is that you would be absolutely wild in a mudwrestling match. Your sensuous furies possessing your beautiful, sleek body, as you proved what a tigress that you are.

Am I close?...

-- King of Spain (madrid@aol.cum), September 05, 2000.


We cooked in the car because the propane ran out. Worked pretty well. Damn hot summer day makes meat brown nicely in there, although slowly. If we had meat, that is, that particular day it was beans. Took several hours. Got very hungry. We would have built a fire, in fact we did build a fire, but the Forest Rangers made us put the fire out due to the drought.

We bathed in a spring-fed creek in November with frost on the ground because the well ran dry. It was ok as long as you stayed under water. Riding home in the back of the pickup was freezing hell.

When the car broke down in the heat on our way home from the grocery store, we broke out the plastic spoons and shared the icecream while we waited for the tow truck. Never leave home without plastic spoons in the glove compartment. Napkins would have been nice and baby wipes even nicer, but the dog was kind enough to help with the faces.

helen, yes! You and Patricia both ... your sleek bodies oiled, your passionate furies inflamed ... the DOGS LICKING YOUR FACES??!!!

Yechh! Spitooeee!! Gawd, so much for THAT fantasy.
