The Gwampy Thread

[reyler]

Well the movie that Cry Little Sister is from is from 1987 (The Lost Boys), and few people of any generation have heard of Carfax Abbey, so there's that.

[Mrs. Cindy Gill]

ah ya I might actually know that. the song I mean.

 

dance little sister was 1974, off only rock and roll. not a great album but a good enough song.

[GrandpaG]

My sister finished reading my book and she actually enjoyed it!!! Her favorite characters were almost identical to mine which seems mathematically impossible odds to me...we are not much alike. Everyone else that I have talked to who have finished it have different viewpoints from mine. Maybe being raised in the same family really does affect the way that you see things? Not that any of this has spit to do with Fiddlesticks or spam...just checking to see if I needed to put on a show or not...guess not.

 

( sad, almost crying emoticon )

 

Bye for now.

Love,

Gramps

[Mrs. Cindy Gill]

put on a show if it makes you happy

[GrandpaG]

* looks around the Fiddlesticks performing stage...nods in approval *

 

 

I like what you've done with the place.

 

The gargoyles encircling and looking down at the stage ensures an attentive audience.

 

What is that...about 10 degree spacing between them?

 

* tries to count them but can't be sure if it was 35 or 36...shrugs *

 

Whatever.

 

It's nice to have all of the light that those torches put off...one between each gargoyle...just right!

 

Is there a significance to the circle? I won't be turned to the shadow if I perform here, will I?

 

Why doesn't the light from the torches penetrate the darkness surrounding the stage?

 

This kind of reminds me of Telenrhoid when the bad guys were having their meeting and the good guys were listening in.

 

Is this real hardwood or is it laminate?

 

* stomps his First Fool slippers causing the bells to jingle...shrugs then smiles *

 

Should be OK.

 

Let's get this show on the road!!!

 

 

 

* strolls over to the skeleton of last year's Christmas tree that never got taken down *

 

No needles...could have used a little more sugar water...oh,well.

 

* pushes aside some of the fake icicles and grabs a couple of the dusty once shiny ornaments *

 

Nothing a little bit of spit can't fix.

 

* spits on the balls then rubs them on his sleeve until they shine like new *

 

Much better!!!

 

* tosses his balls high into the air *

* watches them fall to the floor and smash into hundreds of tiny shards *

 

Oops!!!

 

Guess I'm a little rusty...it's been a while.

 

Good thing I didn't try throwing knives or shooting my bow and arrow at a live volunteer!!!

 

 

=================

 

Now look what you've got me doing again! I was doing so good...all that time with no spam!!!

 

Maybe if I don't perform any more for a day or two I might be able to get back up onto the wagon?

 

Time will tell.

 

( I use that saying several times in my book )

 

Bye for now.

Happy holidays!

Love,

Gramps

[reyler]

So basically, it's not falling off the wagon if you get pushed, is that right?

[Mrs. Cindy Gill]

and something to do with balls. He's gotten odder.

[reyler]

No, him playing with his balls has been an ongoing thing for years now.

[Mrs. Cindy Gill]

That's just wrong.

[reyler]

I dunno, it seems to me like a fair and accurate summation of events.

[Mrs. Cindy Gill]

Eeeewwww I just got the hardwood reference :/

[reyler]

You might be giving him a little too much credit on that one (or too little, depending on perspective); I expect he really did just mean floor substrates.

[Mrs. Cindy Gill]

ok. I'm creepier than grandpa. I can accept that.

[GrandpaG]

* tries to post without enjoying it so the addiction is left unfed *

 

Nope...didn't work.

[GrandpaG]

Those who have read my book liked all but the middle boring chapters. I read it just for the experience and I must agree...chapters 3 through 13 are necessary but not as good as the rest. I remember a similar feeling after reading some of the Wheel of Time books...some parts I liked and other parts not so much even though they did add to the books. Did I just compare myself to RJ? Must be time for a nap.

 

I picked my pen name with the faithful forty in mind. Unless Amazon is neglecting to report the sales accurately I think I could have used my real name and got similar results. Not that it matters. I just imagined more interest from my former fans. I even included some horse clops and a foolish performance with them in mind. Life does not always happen the way that you think it might.

 

I'm out of work early tonight. Wifey is not used to having me around at this time of night so she is on the phone with our daughter for the next couple of hours. I'm not in the mood for spamming plus I'm trying to cut down but I thought I'd say hi.

 

Love,

Gramps

[Mrs. Cindy Gill]

Hi gramps

[GrandpaG]

Hi MrsG

[reyler]

MSG? Not in my food! *dumps cindy in the sink*

[Mrs. Cindy Gill]

would you really try to wash a cat?

[reyler]

*jams her down the disposal with the broomstick*

[Mrs. Cindy Gill]

Damn, I don't think that will work with my cats :/. No disposal.

[reyler]

Just means you get to be a drain clog instead of making a smooth transition through the plumbing.

[Mrs. Cindy Gill]

The little prince bit me hard just now. I may make him a drain clog tonight. Or perhaps a home neutering...

[reyler]

If you're going that route, at least eat him; make his expiration useful, wot?

[Mrs. Cindy Gill]

he's awfully skinny. I

might as well have him

fixed and fatten him

up :/.
