JamesSavik Posted February 9, 2005 Report Share Posted February 9, 2005 I'm new here but not a stranger, so have no worries I'm no danger, another bit storm in the night, with tales of woe and delight. Don't ask me about the great mysteries, I'm not sure you'ld want to know my history, All I've got to offer is a bruised but good heart, A humble enough yet honest place to start. -JS Link to comment

blue Posted February 10, 2005 Report Share Posted February 10, 2005 Hi James, welcome to AwesomeDude. The dude himself might be by in a while to say hello. Meanwhile, pull up a comfy chair and hang out and do some reading. ~Blue / forum admin and general nuisance ;) Link to comment
Codey Posted February 10, 2005 Report Share Posted February 10, 2005 Hey James...we need more poets to show these prose writers real literature!! Welcome bud. Link to comment
JamesSavik Posted February 10, 2005 Author Report Share Posted February 10, 2005 Thanks for the warm welcome blue, aussie and cody. You are some of my favorite people anyway so its not like the first day of school. :D Link to comment
EleCivil Posted February 10, 2005 Report Share Posted February 10, 2005 Hey, James. Always good to see someone new around here. we need more poets to show these prose writers real literature!! Them's fightin' words, rhymeslinger. Pistols at dawn it is, then. :smt066 On second thought...nah, I don't want to have to wake up that early. Cancel the duel. Link to comment
blue Posted February 10, 2005 Report Share Posted February 10, 2005 :laughs: EleCivil, you're great. "Rhyme-Slinger." What a great kenning. (Look up "kenning" if you don't already know it. Very old tradition.) Link to comment

It's hard to get us literary types motivated to do dawn....unless we've been up all night on a writing jag. Those damned muses show up at the oddest hours. Link to comment
Dewey Posted February 10, 2005 Report Share Posted February 10, 2005 Those damned muses show up at the oddest hours. They certainly do, and you don't dare strangle them because they might abandon you altogether. *Sigh* Such is the life.... Link to comment

As bad a shot as I am, the only ones in mortal danger from my bullets, would be the people waaaaaaay off to the side to watch the duel!!!! Link to comment
blue Posted February 10, 2005 Report Share Posted February 10, 2005 :laughs: DUCK!! The muses are being difficult today. They think I should write more than a short story, but I have to insist otherwise. They also don't want to cough up the scene I had planned out this morning. The new characters refuse to name themselves, too. Dang muses. But if they go on like that too long, I know it's a sign I'm going about something wrong and need to change direction. Dang muses have worse direction-sense than I do, and that's hard to do. :)) Link to comment

As bad a shot as I am, the only ones in mortal danger from my bullets, would be the people waaaaaaay off to the side to watch the duel!!!! Ah, you overestimate me - for a guy who goes around suggesting pistols at dawn, I'm a horrible shot as well. Not really the smartest thing to do, I guess. Add to that the lack of sleep, and I'd probably succeed in defending my honor by noblely liberating my big toe from the rest of my foot. Hmm...maybe I could peg you with a beanbag or something, though. Yeah, that'll work. Beanbags at twenty paces. Link to comment
blue Posted February 11, 2005 Report Share Posted February 11, 2005 ...So who cooks the frijoles? Oddly enough, I cooked pinto beans Thursday afternoon. Link to comment

aj Posted February 13, 2005 Report Share Posted February 13, 2005 Does anyone else remember the scene in 'Impromptu' where Chopin is challenged to a duel, requests the cleaner of the two pistols (he was wearing white gloves, you know), turns and walks three of the 10 paces and faints dead away...so George Sands scoops up the pistol, shoots the other guy, and hustles Chopin off to the inn before the moist night air can do him irreparable harm? That sounds a bit like my conduct if i was ever to enter into a duel. I think Blue's idea of chicken enchiladas at point blank range sounds a lot more fun. cheers! aj Link to comment
Graeme Posted February 13, 2005 Report Share Posted February 13, 2005 Using chicken enchiladas for a duel is almost sacrilege. As one of my all time favourite foods, anything except eating them is a total waste. Now Haggis at five paces sounds more reasonable. The only thing is that Scots object to using their national food for frivilious purposed (I know, because a Haggis throwing competition was recently forced to find fake haggis to keep the Scots happy....) Graeme Link to comment
blue Posted February 13, 2005 Report Share Posted February 13, 2005 oh, well, I wasn't quite thinking of throwing the enchiladas. :shrugs: but if you insist.... haggis. I'd be all for throwing the haggis, I've heard the description. Now, I like oatmeal, but um, not sure those other things go together, or with oatmeal. my Scottish ancestors might be greatly disturbed at that, but too bad. I'll just be over here with the enchiladas and the water hose and towels. rub down anyone? :raises eyebrow: -- oops, I'd better be nice, I'm supposed to be a decorous moderator and not scare you all away. ...or maybe you all like that idea. hmm. watermelon, anyone? ::SPLATT:: ::SPLATT:: ::SPLATT:: ----- I'm really not sure when the thread got hijacked or who started it, but this is kinda fun.... ------ ok, so I'm easily amused.... ----- Link to comment

rick Posted February 25, 2005 Report Share Posted February 25, 2005 Graeme; Using the word "Haggis" and the word "Food" in the same sentence is one of the few unforgivable sins. Sheeps stomach stufffed with Oats......and stuff..... :smt078 Come visit Denver and I'll make you a whole platter of my world famous chicken enchilada's! Rick Link to comment
