i think i'm going to retire ashton for awhile.

Lingbert, Tuesday, 18 November 2008 06:19 (fifteen years ago) link

posting that ashton post felt forced and pretty joyless.

Lingbert, Tuesday, 18 November 2008 06:20 (fifteen years ago) link

yeah if you kept posting that face it would stay that way

jergins, Tuesday, 18 November 2008 06:26 (fifteen years ago) link

estela do you like flann o'brien?

max max max max, Wednesday, 19 November 2008 14:38 (fifteen years ago) link

i haven't read him, but i like the sound of him. do you like him?

One of The Third Policeman’s many footnotes speculates that Kraus and du Garbandier, two of de Selby’s commentators, were one and the same person. We learn that another de Selby expert, Hatchjaw, is arrested for impersonating himself; and the possibility is mentioned that Hatchjaw was not Hatchjaw at all, but “either another person of the same name or an impostor.”
This ludicrous situation is one which O’Brien and friends attempted with great success to play out in real life, hijacking the letters page of the Irish Times with a host of letters written under false names. The letters formed a kind of chain, with O’Brien often sneering at letters he himself had written under a different name. The modern-day Irish Times will not publish pseudonymous letters, and requests that writers provide a phone number so that their identities can be verified; but at the time, editor R. M. Smyllie, encouraged no doubt by the rising circulation, gave O’Brien his own column on the strength of the letters controversy (which he himself even joined in).

estela, making double-o funnies since 2001

lxy, Thursday, 20 November 2008 02:48 (fifteen years ago) link

are the o's the same size or is one larger than the other with an underscore separating them.

jergins, Thursday, 20 November 2008 03:48 (fifteen years ago) link

jergins, Tuesday, 2 December 2008 23:57 (fifteen years ago) link

jergins, Tuesday, 2 December 2008 23:59 (fifteen years ago) link

Lingbert, Tuesday, 9 December 2008 07:42 (fifteen years ago) link

she's away but i'm sure she is thinking about us while she's gone, just as we are thinking about her

lxy, Tuesday, 9 December 2008 18:29 (fifteen years ago) link

that sounds like something a mom would say to her child when the dad has been sent to prison or is off on vacation with his mistress.

Lingbert, Tuesday, 9 December 2008 19:09 (fifteen years ago) link

lingy, i'm not your daddy.

i went to nz for a few days to see someone who is very ill, partly from cancer and partly from chemotherapy. i did think about you all while i was gone<3, and i thank you for thinking about me.

this morning f. was walking our dog and he saw this mean neighbour of ours and her terrible little angry dog and the dog was jumping up at f. and she said, 'it's because you're eating a banana, he loves bananas, can he have a bit,' so f. broke a piece off and the dog scarfed it down and then the neighbour lady suddenly lunged at the banana and dug her fingers right into it to get more for her dog. f. was taken aback, he threw the rest of it in the trash.

smoove operator, Tuesday, 23 December 2008 05:42 (fifteen years ago) link

jergins, Tuesday, 23 December 2008 09:13 (fifteen years ago) link

!!!!!!????!!!!/&;@

max max max max, Tuesday, 23 December 2008 12:18 (fifteen years ago) link

it's either ruby (i hope so) or the banana gouger from up the street.

estela, Tuesday, 23 December 2008 13:02 (fifteen years ago) link

have you heard tap tap tapping in the night? noticed an unusual amount of grime on the keyboard when you wake? odd smudges on the monitor?

has your little pet been casting side-long glances at you?

looks like the doggie typing lessons paid off!

lxy, Tuesday, 23 December 2008 19:58 (fifteen years ago) link

or it could be ruby.

lxy, Tuesday, 23 December 2008 20:02 (fifteen years ago) link

!! maybe it is my little dog and he spelt smooch operator wrong.

but it's probably ruby, and if so, where is she? she should be posting.

estela, Wednesday, 24 December 2008 00:59 (fifteen years ago) link

why, hello there
