Yes, I understood the difference. After reading more, my response was in
recognition of the volume of your work, and all a consistent and commendable
quality. I believe Goethe would have enjoyed your work - well done!

NOooooo!!! Oz not being cultured other than in a bacterial sense
is unaware of the other pretender to the Internet Opera crown
(hon. in cyb.) Do NOT confuse the Internet Opera aka The Cedar
Bucket with honoria in cyberspazio. No wimpish searches for
peace love and understanding remainder of rant snipped

Scout,

Is he a contributor!! He is THE POET LAURETE of the ASA!

Scout,
Being rather new, what you won't know is that Timmy's poems and opera are an accurate reflection of what this ng used to be.
Neal has now mellowed into the latter days of life and the spark has flown (away) from his vulgar tongue. Gilligan has retired
the flying monkeys and MC found out that his cholesterol levels were rising much too rapiudly with every meal I prepared. BS
was much more fun when he ahd Ghost girls instead of ALiens on his boat. We always assumed he was the Alien. And then there
are those that we have lost along the way...the sock puppets that were buried and have not been resurrected (except for the
occasional appearance of Babs...but that's mostly for my benefit...and I'm grateful to the hand that propels her for thinking
enough of me to resurrect her now and again). If you can find archives from 2-4 years ago, read through and enjoy. It was a
much different place then.

Thanks Katy,
This group is certainly one of the more prolific I've seen. I'm enjoying the
characters immensely and may even use some of this material with my class in
the Fall (with permission of course). At first I didn't realize how much of
the banter was tongue-in-cheek, and I was apprehensive about asking even the
simplest of questions. Now I see that it's ok to jump in, even to razz a
bit, so long as one can take it as well. All in good fun.
I'll take your advice and read more of the archives (I actually lurked for
quite a while before writing in). Right now I'm laughing too hard at
Taddy's material to do much else!
