Susanne,

I hope you will post again. Don't let Witty Owl's harsh words to you keep you away.

Sons of the Pioneers recorded it as well. (Here in Germany the American Wild West was and is very popular theme.)

Jo,

Anyone who thinks for one moment that Lizzytysh "has achieved the expression of her passion in an articulate and well reasoned manner" should immediately go and vote for option G of the poll.

Lizzytysh,

Your career on this board reminds me of a word we have here in Germany. Schadenfreude --- Schaden, damage + Freude, joy.

You take such a malicious delight in the destruction of others.

George, I think it sad that the poetry section is the most popular section on the Forum. Just people complimenting each other. Whatever happened to Leonard Cohen? And I don't really think the poetry section is the most popular anyway. It may have the most entries, but if you look at the number of &q...

Sandra,

I think the reason people started discussing the poetry section is because option C on the poll Why do you post? is "No one else will read my poetry".

LaurieAk,

Why is it that only Lizzytysh is allowed to have brutally honest opinions? And yourself of course. (For someone with broad shoulders you certainly are sensitive)

I hope Leonard has read my poems.

I am confused. What is the Yasmine and Marc Show?

Most poets could benefit by an editor, junior or otherwise. All sorts of drivel is written and the "poet" expects nothing but praise. It's silly to say that if a person reads a poem that is poorly written (and recognizes that is is poorly written) that the fault lies with the reader. Only ...

Andrew,

I am glad you laughed at my joke. Where I am in Germany, as far as Leonard Cohen or a birthday celebration is concerned it is as silent as a tomb. None of the people around me listen to him.

Johann

Paula, I, for one, am sorry that you are leaving the forum. Also, I do not think that you are "pitiful" or "befuddled" or "insincere" or any of the other cruel words directed at you. It is not you who "thrives on conflict". And no one on this board deserves to...

Andrew,

You remind me of a nervous border collie trying to herd the scatterbrained sheep into a pen.

Why this obsession with never deviating from the original post? Especially as you have added nothing to Tom's post. Other than saying "Thanks".

George

Where, exactly, is the "pun" that we are supposed to forget?

George,

We are all well aware that you want a DVD...You've told Leonard countless times to produce one for you...So give it a rest, will you?
