Certainly I wrote those articles. I was going to get a raise, a month's vacation. But I stopped writing them when I found out what he was all about, when I realized how real he was. He could never fit in with our distorted viewpoint, because he's honest, and sincere, and good. If that man's crazy, Your Honor, the rest of us belong in straitjackets!

The word "pixilated" is an early American expression derived from the word "pixies," meaning elves. They would say the pixies had got him. As we nowadays would say, a man is "barmy."

That's a B. It's the first letter of a seven-letter word that means your father.

I'm not sure she's capable of any real feelings. She's television generation. She learned life from Bugs Bunny.

I don't like the way this script of ours has turned out. It's turning into a seedy little drama.

Heh, heh, of course not, who can nowadays? Listen, I have trouble writing a postcard to my children. Look uhh, we can give you a six figure advance, I've provide you with the very best ghost-writer, proof-readers...

 

Not a bad idea... » Poet

As long as the roots are not severed, all is well. And all will be well in the garden.

And welcome home. I missed you.

No, nothing I ever do is good enough. Not beautiful enough, it's not funny enough, it's not deep enough, it's not anything enough. Now, when I see a rose, that's perfect. I mean, that's perfect. I want to look up to God and say, "How the hell did you do that? And why the hell can't I do that?"

Well, you're right. I'm terrible. I know I'm terrible. I look at the mirror and I'm ashamed. Maybe I should quit. I just can't seem to do anything right.

You do one thing perfectly. You are Poet perfectly.

And that's a really cool thing to be.

Air-hugs,

Toss out that confetti, and choose the words *I* would choose for you.

Even my lamented master, the great Mr. Benny himself, never had the privilege of hanging a duke. What a finale to a lifetime in the public service!

Hi Falls,

Though a Poet who hasn't written anything in a long time isn't much of a Poet, is she?

Thanks for thinking I'm cool and for the air hugs.

A difficult client can make things most distressing. Some of them tend to be very hysterical - so inconsiderate.

Oh yes, here we are. "I handed my fedora to a hatcheck girl with all that Venus de Milo had got and then more, and I was admiring the more when I glimpsed something in the back of this frail that set my underwear creeping up on me like it had legs."

A woman is the most fiendish instrument of torture ever devised to bedevil the days of man.

Well, as soon as we get ourselves cleaned up and we get a little smellum in our hair, why, we're gonna feel 100% better about ourselves and about life in general.

I don't really think that personal rancor is going to help the situation. If I may say so.

Do you mind putting down that gun?

 

No problem, but

Well, it's all based on circumstantial evidence. No one actually saw the bullet leave the gun.

I sent my picture into one of those Lonely Hearts Clubs and they sent it back, saying "We're NOT that lonely!"
