Old Nick

LogolepsyPerhaps it was the glamour that attracted me, the lure of foreign travel.  At the time it was the career of choice for boys from the better public schools.  With my nets and traps and baits - not to mention trunk upon trunk of reference books - I traversed the globe.  Certainly it was dangerous, but the pay more than compensated for the risks.  And when I returned home, triumphal, bearing another hitherto undiscovered specimen, I could feed off the adulation for weeks.  I would do the social round from my modest rooms in Kensington, in demand everywhere as a raconteur and adventurer. &nbs Logolepsy

The grunting, straining taxi driver gave one last heave.  Mr Travis Enderby shot from the back seat of the black Honda like the cork from a bottle of well-shaken Babycham.  He landed splat on the pavement, his fall broken by the not-well-tipped-enough taxi driver.  Nonetheless, the impact shook the privet Cake Eats Man.

OK, so this is my all-new, new-look journal. Obviously I didn't do it myself.



I've been only sporadically present on this website for a while now. It's a state of affairs that looks set to continue on and off. I check in most days, post occasionally, lurk often. Occasionally, I like what I see. More often than not, I feel a bit behind the times. I don't know what it is we wanted to achieve with this community, back in the good old bad old days. I know this isn't it. I don't know if it would be better, if we'd achieved what we wanted, or if it would just have been a different kind of clusterfuck.




I've learned a lot from this site over the years. Props to those bad old guys who taught me stuff.



Groups


Wee! This is the place where I'm supposed to show you all the clusterfuck groups I belong to:

There aren't any. So instead a tribute.

:icontheparrot:

May you squawk in peace.





More stuff

I think, to be honest, this particular CSS layout was made for people who have a lot more to say than I do. Apparently.





Life



Well, in Real Life I'm happy. I have my own place, I've been working the same job for nearly three years. It's boring, but it pays the bills and gives me time to concentrate on more interesting things. I sold my car, which means I no longer need to wrestle with my environmental conscience. I've sold out a little on my past ideals, but not so much it's uncomfortable. I guess in my old age I've reached a state of compromise. And I'm happy with it.



Stamps
Apparently I'm supposed to put some more of those shitty stamps in this box. Instead I'd like to take this opportunity to commemorate the STFU truck, with a moment's silence:

Nice to see you're still up and kicking.


What is the legacy of the past but the flight from tomorrow?

Wow! You really are a brilliant poet, aren't you?

Why don't you join the poetry contest from [link] ?


It's free and every nitwit such as myself who enters gets a small gift

but someone like you might win one of their $10 000 or $100 000 prizes.
