POSTERIORITY

anyway
no, i think it's well worthwhile to look back and see
how cyclic we are, in response to Tai
that's what I meant by drugs, in the prior post
how long it takes to escape the cycles and see it,
how funny it is when you realize you're just repeating a ritual
endlessly
for lack of anything better to do

no, friends
we need new mutations
I know because
I just went on a *bad* trip of
  well, here's Tai saying what Tai had used to say,
  and here's GMS saying in response to it sorta like what he used to say,
  and Mike Steiner . . .
  ==> ??
Plugging into patterns like before,
but they should be gone by now.

God Love Mr. Bill Clinton, that he can fulfill his destiny as he sees fit.
He takes off running, doesn't he? And leaves it to the pundits to gasp,
"my! different than we thought! he's - not playing the game!"
No friends. Your analysts must make way
for

The Uranian President

Did you think the Winds of Change would touch Eastern Europe and so much
else of the world - and not the United States? DREAM ON. No way - and EVERY
BIT OF REACTION you see here in this country is Precisely analogous to
what happens elsewhere - the Old-Guard flexing their muscles, on the way
out - impeding progress.

God Bless Hillary too - I love Tough Women, they're my kind - not Macho,
but Just Because. I *must* write in an tell her: hey - what you want to
say? SAY IT, no censorship Pleeeeze. "What? I'm not going to stay home
and bake cookies." - Love it. ABOUT TIME. He and she don't have that much
imagination so far - in terms of what they can /get away with and should/.
Maybe next term, unless she runs - and I'd like Bill in '96 and Hillary in
2000 - but by then I just hope she sticks her tongue out ONCE so the press
gets a picture - or shooting a bird - or that FU-salute. I love life, and
so do they - so go for it.

Hmm. My bad rep follows? Good. I think this is a *good* thing.
The Well asked me to prove I was me, after they received some curious
mail from my account (which I don't recall sending).
Turns out John Harkin mentioned me to Matisse, saying check me out for
being me - his remark was "this is a currently obnoxious usenet person,
suggest you check him out" - Matisse said he'd seen some reference (in
usenet, evidently) to the creation of a newsgroup "alt.fan.ecsd" - well.
Way to go, guys. Thank you. {blushes} I think I would monitor the group,
and not write in - for a while, at least. Is that the expected protocol?
OBNOXIOUS, M.F.A. -- that was BEFORE. Now I AM REDEEMED. NOBODY accuses
me of being obnoxious. YOU GOT THAT? Okay. Just so's you know. Don't
want nobody to get hurt. Alright.
Quite an honor - alt.fan.ecsd - my plot to become famous is working -
so - who ELSE's face should I stick it in?
Huh?
Why bother. ALL I HAVE TO DO, is just be - the way I am.
And have the opinions I do.

Hey - Way E.Z. - okay.
Yeah - wait'll I got my two VCRs hooked up again and chunk down 4 tapes
a night again - you'll all be in DEEP SHIT. And I've been bingeing on
Philip K. Dick and C++ again. Y'all c'n fergit it.

{Maniacal Laughter}
Bye - see ya later.
