I musta hit the wrong button... did not mean to start a new thread... sorry.

It was a goofy tangent anyway.

Buck... yes, I was, through the first in-res year and into the interim year.

I think simon and Tom and Ex knew me, but not in the biblical way.

Not that I could be a professor of English...

---------------------------------------------

But, Buck-o, precise usage suggests that if Tom's experience was LIKE a live sex show, he was probably dreaming...

It sounds a lot closer than "like"... like reach out and touch someone, eh?

Righto Rocko

-------------------------------------

Yeah, as a young feller in the Corps, I probably would have been crazed by that kind of a thing going on three feet over my head. Yup, it may make me seem a little pre-verted, but then again not really. Sex is powerful stuff...

Say Rocky, are you the same as Rocky Rococo?

Re Simonzelotes

------------------------------------------

Oh hey Simon, I see why you ask. Well, Rocky started this thread, and it did seem odd that this thread was started in the Corps section. I was just responding I spose. Maybe we should just let this one fade from popularity and get pushed to the bottom? Who knows, maybe the moderator will delete it...

We certainly wuoldn't want Rock'n Buck to be led down the wrong path..Rocky,when are you going to post on a political thread again so we can find something to argue about....Buck,I think I know who you are,but I don't remember your face....Gee you married guys had all the fun..the only thing us singles could hope for was to cuddle up in a sleeping bag with someone in top floor warhol and watch Papillon.

Well Rocky, you and I had some hellacious arguments a good while back. Arguments about politics, surprisingly enough. Haha! Oh, we were bad to each other for sure. I had a different handle back then and went by the name of "Skookumjoe". Remember me now?

But I'm ok now Rocky. I've joined the Democratic party, am a member of PETA and the ACLU, and make monthly donations to N.O.W.......NOT!

Naw, I don't really want to get into all of that these days. I really have done some thinking about how futile it is to try and figure out what is really going on in politics. The only one that really sees the big picture is God, and that I know I can is for sure...

Simon, if you want to e-mail me, I will tell you who I am. Quid pro quo of course...

I left out the word "say" in the above post...

For all of you in NC, I got to shake hands with Johnny Edwards (US Senator from NC, Dem) this evening. He spoke at a political dinner event this evening. You Tar Heels know too well, no doubt that he is prepping to run for President.

Myself, I think John Kerry from Mass. has more of a presidential presence. I've met both, and if I had to bet now, I'd put money on Kerry over Edwards, and probably over Gore (if he wants another run at it, or Leiberman, but Leiberman would be a strong candidate).

Anyway, I remember various times my mother telling me that when I had told someone my age, (late 30s, early 40s, for example) how it made her feel old.

Well, at this dinner, I was at the media table in the back, and a "young" couple came up to me to talk. Now, I already know many of the active Dems in AZ anyway, but did not recognize these two.

The gal asks me something about who I am and if I remember her, Bishop Cornwell's older daughter (anyone who was a wow or corpse in AZ at anytime in the 1970s, 80s, or maybe into the 90s probably knows who Bishop C. is. For those who do not, his is listed in the directory pages on the Cortright fellowship web site (see drop down menu at the top of the page for a link).

Well, I first came back to AZ after "getting into the Word" while overseas, in 1976 or 1977. She was just a kid.

Apparently, she grew up, spent at least a year at the Way C of E, met a guy, married him and ended up (now is) 37 years old (of course, 1977 is 25 years ago), and has three kids, one a teenager already.

Well, her husband works for a large corporation that does business with the State of Arizona and therefore he does some political associating.

Anyway, the former Miss Cornwell is doing very well and both seem quite happy together and content no longer being in twi.

I almost feel guilty saying she's a fox, as if time stood still and she's still a minor. But she's not, and I'm not guilty and it just was interesting and nice to see an old acquaintance.

Hey,he wasn't a real bishop,was he? I think that was his first name....I don't know if the way ordained people to be bishops...If they did it would be Bishop Tim Bishop,or,we would call Lloyd "His Excellency,Bishop Bishop".I think Bishop K.C. Pallai was already a bishop before he got involved with the way.Since the terrorist attacks,have you read "Light Through An Eastern Window"? Maybe some of these ousted bishops in the Catholic Church can find work at TWI....Fellowzipper,nice of you to drop by...."...Well the time slips away mister,leaving you with nothing but boring stories of...glory days..."

Saimoneon, we just saw Bruce Springsteen in concert. It was great. What a show!

Remember all those 8mm movies Tricia Byrne took? She was forever carrying around her little camera and filming things. This was you first, our last year.

After some digging I finally contacted her in Germany. I asked her if I could get copies of her films so I could convert them to DVD. I offered to pay for it. Regretably she said she lost all her films

Oh, so now we're playing "simon sez"?

Rocks can start as many threads as he wants!

As far as Buck, he must be nigh unto insanity by now, what with all these threads that Rocks has started.

I don't know... it must be ______'s fault, I hit the reply button

-------------------------------------------------

Now I know why blaming and denial are so epidemic in our society. Even when one wants to be honest with himself, it sounds dorky.

Simon, it must be a conspiracy.!

Yes, but only for a few months in 79, from May until the rocka, when I went out WOW.

Then I came back in 84 after the advanced piffle class, and I've been here ever since. Left TWIt in 89 or so.

Yeah, I remember that...I think the "A's" went immediately after the rock and the "B's" went right after the anniverary weekend in Oct...In 1974 McDonald's had a promotion,if you could say "two all beef patties,special sauce,lettuce,cheese,pickles,onions,on a sesame seed bun" within four seconds you got a free big mac....Guess what our supper was for three weeks? I can't believe I still remember that......Ohbehave,you may join the 9th corps "b" wave of Wows,as long as you don't post your replies on a new thread like our dear brother Rocky....Regrettably,he is now on probation.....John,I remember Tricia,but not her camera....We also had Michael Heron,who like tricia,haled from Ireland,in the 9th corps...HE seemed like the oldest guy in our corps....

Ok,Rocky, you're off probation, however you must submit your posts to the Crustees for review,so's we can go over them line by line and word by word,because after all, we wouldn't want you to use an improper English wurd....ExCatchatigerbythetail...sorry about that...I'll get Lenny to put the mike down and clean that up for you......Tommy,...uhhh,...that went right over my head,thru the woods,allthe way to gramma's house.....Let one interpret,...that is, the selfsame one,which is a cogent expression,which relates itself to the nearest antecedant,meaning that,in the dative case, the "one" which is italicized,would refer to the nearest noun or pronoun,being modified in the present or past tense,naturally would be the accusative for "that one" prophet,Malachi...

there was an 11th corps irish lad, martin reilly (?), wife nanette. he was a bit cranky
