I hope this doesn't mean what I think it does, Jim.

Don't let the Georges beat you.

Oh dear! Is your pathetic little world falling apart because your
pathetic little god has absconded?

Whatever will the Sunday Simpletons do without the Lord High Chief
Simpleton?

Since PJ Ross says he has me killfiled, I hope someone will reply to my post so he gets answers to his question (not the Willtroll, of course, since PJ says he has that one killfiled as well).

Back in the day (2017 and 2018), whenever "drive-by" (or "let it be," or whatever he was calling himself at the time) had a meltdown and left, I'd take over running both his Sampler and his Jukebox in his absence. He's since trained the Picktroll, who's had lots of free time since Stephan Pickering vanished from the group, to run the Sampler.

The Picktroll actually does a better job with the routine than "drive-by," so there should be no negative effect on the Sampler. I'm sure the Picktroll would welcome a poem from him about talking animals for the next installment.

Awwww dance, we have something in common.......
And I don’t recall Jim ever asking you to take over the Sampler.

I do not know if Peter has killfiled me yet.....

It doesn't matter. While PJ often gives good advice, he'd rather not dirty his hands with us hoi palloi.

[George J. Dance]

True; and, ironically, PJ Ross and I also have something in common: We both consider you a subhuman creature. Small world.

In the time of Sampler 1.0 (2017-18) you were simply the Willtroll, with no interest in poetry. It was only later that you blossomed as a poetess.

The only people I recall him mentioning were me, ME, and ktell. We'll have to wait and see whom he replies to.

Yes, I have progressed rather quickly, haven’t I.
Especially for someone who’s only been writing poetry for less than three years and, truth be told, I really don’t like poetry that much.

PJR is only increasingly disappointed with us, so we are 10s on the buddy scale.
