" Can we have some privacy, please?"

[cyborg]

LOL!

[snugs]

If it was last year that was the same time did you mean 2003 LOL

[international american]

Then I WAS there and heard nothing about it. I am a Cheney fan.

In the series "Best Poetry Ever"

Pablo Neruda ping

Absence

I have scarcely left you
when you go in me, crystalline,
or trembling,
or uneasy, wounded by me
or overwhelmed with love, as when your eyes
close upon the gift of life
that without cease I give you.

My love,
we have found each other
thirsty and we have
drunk up all the water and the blood,
we found each other
hungry
and we bit each other
as fire bites,
leaving wounds in us.

But wait for me,
keep for me your sweetness.
I will give you too
a rose.

Happy Iternational Moment of Laughter Day, everybody.

[Kudsman]

Hi Vic. Did you read #267?

[Victoria Delsoul]

Kudsman!!! Good to see you. :-)

I try to read as much as I can, but you gotta ping me if you want me to read something, otherwise, I'd probably miss it.

Nice poem, thanks.

[Kudsman]

Nice poem, thanks.

If you say so. Let me politely say I found it....interesting ;-) Hate me later.

Anyway, how have you been? Have you hung up your FReejay shoes yet?

[Victoria Delsoul]

I can't get access to music sites. It's becoming more and more difficult, but I found something for you, hope you like it...

[Kudsman]

Beautiful. Simply beautiful. Beautiful lyrics, beautiful sound. Good one. Thanks.

[Victoria Delsoul]

Oh well, in that case let try another one, lol.

[Victoria Delsoul]

I like this one, too.

[JustAmy]

Nice music, Victoria.

I'm listening as I'm trying to finish up some loose ends with taxes. I'm filing an extension but I need to pull the rest of my totals together. I've been busy!!

Hope you've been having a wonderful week.

[Alberta's Child]

Thanks for the ping, Victoria -- I could use some "international laughter" at a time like this. Tax time! LOL.

[Victoria Delsoul]

Hi Amy. My week is going well, thanks.

Don't work too hard... I know, easier said than done.

Hope this song relaxes you a little.

[Kudsman]

Wow. With a face, figure and voice like that she had to be the bomb in her day. When is that from? Like the 30's or 40's? It's very good. Time capsule good.
