them this morning, I was doing some plonking and accidently, I SWEAR,
well umm, well it's like this oh great one: I had been offline for a few
days and when I downloaded my email in my zeal to get rid of the junk
mail I dumped you as well. I am sorry. After digging the two mails out
of the trash I will post you a reply. We are interested. In a sincere
effort to suck up I introduced you as a internationally known and
respected speaker and author, a position I believe this ng has seen you
earn. Please forgive me oh great and wise one *G* and I promise not to
"trash" you anymore.

Just in time, because I just ruined another one.
The only good thing is that after spewing Dr. Pepper though my nose
always stop the sinus headaches for a month or so. If I was a braver person I
would not wait for the kindly people in MS to provide the relief.
I suspect that Lonnie Courtny also thinks ladies have staples in their
bellybuttons.....

Had you viewed the original posting, you would have seen that this was
a broadcast message for Ms. Curry from me. My original post was
specifically directed at Ms. Curry and contained nothing of humor.
> See the quoted material in the previous post and examine the

Well, below is a copy of Ms. Curry's original response to me, so that
everyone may have a frame of reference. :

Other than the possibility that a sexually-frustrated adolescent might
find the use of the words "Plonk" or "suck" to be of some mild
entertainment and possibly the pre-pubescent tendency of some to rhyme
my last name with a slang-term for a rigid phallus, I see nothing in
her response that would elicit a response from an outsider.
FYI : the word "Plonk" refers to killfiling someone. An activity
which, most likely, you may have recently experienced (albeit
unknowingly) from your response.
Ms. Curry was being playful with me over the fact that she had
accidentally deleted my email along with junkmail.
She was also poking fun at the frequent relapses of Omniscience
Disease which I must frustratingly (more to others than myself, it
seems) endure.
Mattel and Barbie notwithstanding
> I drink either Coca Cola or Lipton Tea myself.
Well. . .there's no accounting for taste.

I do not assume to speak for Speaker to Animals, but I find the rather
sophisticated taste of Dr. Pepper to be one that is quite intriguing.
As to whether he, or I for that matter, imbibe it prior to posting is
immaterial.
Do you drink a concoction of your Coca-Cola and Lipton (does anyone
really drink that orange pekoe crap anymore? Why not step up in the
world to a nice Earl Grey or even Darjeeling?) before rudely intruding
on conversations between people?
> So far as porn mags go, it has been years since I last saw one. I
> suppose that I lead a sheltered life.........
Perhaps your baseless, off-the-mark interruptions and repeated
tendencies for turning everything into an anagram are the reasons for
your not being invited to any group gatherings.
From what I gathered, I thought you were *looking* for Barbie. If
this is your attempt at a come-on to Ms. Curry, I suggest you
reconsider your approach.
Were I not to know that the lovely Ms. Curry is already taken, and
were I not to enjoy the partnership of marriage to my own beautiful
lady, I would take a much more subtle and sophisticated approach.
Granted, I am couple of years your junior, but I have left the
trappings of childhood pranks behind. I no longer need to resort to
"bull-in-a-crystal-shop" methods of attracting attention.
Were I to attempt to pursue such a treasure as Ms. Curry, I know that
my methods would have to be sophisticated, unique and cute. From what
I've read, I know that Ms. Curry would more appreciate small, sublime
overtures initially instead of elephantine "in-your-face" bludgeonings
of affection.
A single daisy as opposed to a dozen roses.
A hand-written note as opposed to a Hallmark card.
A seemingly spontaneous, intimate picnic instead of dinner at Ruth's
Chris and the theater (no, not a movie).
That is not to say that the latter of any of the examples would be
neither appreciated nor enjoyed by Ms. Curry. Ms. Curry would fit in
anywhere, appearing at ease and well in command of any given situation
despite the possibility that she may harbor some nervousness
(personally, that is a trait I admire more than the ability to adapt
perfectly into any crowd. Courage is going ahead with something
though it makes you feel uncomfortable.)
But were I to pursue Ms. Curry, a different approach must be taken.
She is too wise and too complex to try and impress by puffing one's
physical or mental chest out and beating it like a gorilla (something
done much later and in private).
Perhaps I would merely invite her to coffee at a secluded bistro, get
to know her, her likes and dislikes. I would inquire into little
things such as her favorite color, her favorite food, her intellectual
and spiritual interests.
Then, were she to permit me to take her out a for a more formal,
"official" outing, I would arrange for entertainment based upon the
information I had gathered whilst speaking with her, never forgetting
that it is SHE who has allowed me the PRIVILEGE of accompanying HER.
But above all, were I ever to even consider the possibility that she
would allow me to court her, I would NEVER attempt to compare her with
a lifeless, plastic doll which possesses a stereotypical image of
being little more than a shallow playtoy.
Seeking a life-partner is not like playing an RTS or reading sci-fi in
your home, it is much more complex and the results are seldom as nice
and tidy. Not always can you stop and start over at a point where you
were at a more advantageous position.
I might suggest that you bow out gracefully and apologize to Ms. Curry
(not to me) for interrupting. A gentleman would do nothing less. We
understand if it is beyond your capability to do so. You are, after
all, a self-professed software engineer who uses AOL.

Laurie-Ann,
Please allow me to apologize for the rather rude intrusion of another.
I have sent you an email with some questions and suggestions. Please
let me know if you've received it.
I remain in your service.

Consider me thrashed with the cane of your choice. An enlightening
lecture indeed, since I had never considered the possiblity of going
after married women myself. I shall add your wisdom to my meagre store
in the hopes that it may prove useful at a later date. As for Mrs.
Curry, obviously I am too spicy even for her, so I will leave this
thread until prompted for yet more adolescent humors to unwind.

Be still my heart! *blushes* You do have a way woth words Mr. Hardin and I would
venture to say your lady is very fortunate. Boo says I will be impossible to
live with for days *WEG*. Truthfully the reason I am posting a reply is to say
thank you. Even if done tongue in cheek you actually hit my likes and dislikes
perfectly on target. The shetland man is gone and has been for about a year.
He decided this lifestyle was to much hardwork and our values to far from the
mainstream. The idea of going on the hundred mile trail ride we just came home
from was way to much "work" for him. I miss his toolbox. My, that was catty.
Actually there were some wonderful times in the three years we dated. He has
married a gal that thinks the way he does and sadly he has reverted to sheeple
thinking. We still see them on a regular basis and have remained friends. The
girls and I have worked to hard to get where we are and sooner or later some one
likeminded will ride in. If not I can ride across the river by myself.
Thanks for brightening my day.

This one we did. We are just a little piece from the Owen-Putnam state
forest. They have a horsemans camp that is pretty nice. There are not a
hundred miles of trails in the state forest alone but we have permission
from several land owners to ride their places and we actually come pretty
close to 25 miles a day. Some beautiful country. There is a hundred mile
ride down at Corydon but it has been a long time since we rode it. The
National Forest has wonderful trails but if you ride there you really need
to take a map unless your a local. They have several hikers and trail
riders get lost yearly.
If all continues to go well for us and we get to the point we can
afford to buy some more horses you and your lady will have to come up and
go riding with us.
I was just informed tonight the girls and I may have the concession for
the stable at McCormicks for next year, Roo and Boo are almost bouncing off
the walls. They worked out there for five years and of course when I was a
kid so did I.
