    DR42 Resident: 's current display-name is "Marjorie Chardin".
    Bruce Mowbray: 's current display-name is "Bruce".
    DR42 Resident: ηαмαѕтє
    Bruce Mowbray: Namaste!
    Bruce Mowbray: I read the screenplay of HAROLD AND MAUDE.
    Bruce Mowbray: .. and learned that the sculptor's name was not "Malchus."
    Bruce Mowbray: It was "Glaucus."
    Bruce Mowbray: Malchus was the name of the Centurian whose ear got cut off by Peter.
    DR42 Resident: It may have been changed in the Movie. For instance, in the screen play, the car was a MGB, in the movie, they upgraded it to a XKE E-type. Much more pointed.
    --BELL--1300
    Bruce Mowbray: kk, didn't realize that.
    Bruce Mowbray: I haven't watched the movie in some time. Maybe I will watch it tonight.
    Agatha Macbeth: 's current display-name is "Aggers".
    Bruce Mowbray: Heya, aggers.
    Agatha Macbeth: Evenin'
    Agatha Macbeth: How is we?
    Bruce Mowbray: I is good, don't know about Maude, though.
    DR42 Resident: Semi OK. I have entered the Epsilon minus state.
    Bruce Mowbray: oh my....
    Agatha Macbeth: Is that bad?
    DR42 Resident: It is for the idiots.
    Agatha Macbeth: Oh my
    DR42 Resident: I feel like my IQ is about 75 today.
    Agatha Macbeth: What is it usually?
    Bruce Mowbray: Epsilon Minus was a EBM/techno/trance band from Canada formed in 2000 by Bogart Shwadchuck and Jennifer Parkin. They signed with Belgian record company Alfa Matrix to release their first album in 2002. Jennifer left in 2003 to start her own project, Ayria. Bogart continued the band solo, releasing records in 2003 and 2004 with help from collaborators The Azoic, Distorted Reality, Null Device, and Stromkern.
    Bruce Mowbray: (Do you now know any more than you did before, aggers?)
    Agatha Macbeth: Bogart Shwadchuck sounds like a SL name
    Bruce Mowbray: Here comes Wollie.
    DR42 Resident: It was also used to refer to the challenged in some sci-fi book that I cannot for the life of me, remember.
    Agatha Macbeth: Yay
    Bruce Mowbray: (at least she just came on-line.)
    Agatha Macbeth: Well life's all about challenges eh
    Bruce Mowbray: I will try to find the sci-fi book, Maude.
    Agatha Macbeth: Does Blub's son have a name?
    Agatha Macbeth: Wollie ♥
    Wol Euler: evening all
    Wol Euler: Blub MacBlubson
    Bruce Mowbray: Brave New World, it is.
    Bruce Mowbray: Heya, Wol!
    DR42 Resident: Yes!
    Agatha Macbeth: Wonder if we'll see a son of Spot?
    Agatha Macbeth: Oh BNW
    Bruce Mowbray: McBlubson
    Agatha Macbeth: Mr Huxley
    Bleu Oleander: 's current display-name is "Bleu".
    Bruce Mowbray: Heya, Bleu!
    Bleu Oleander: hey all :)
    Agatha Macbeth: He was about 6 foot 10 and blind as a bat if I remember right
    DR42 Resident: Elevator Man.
    Wol Euler: hello bleu
    Agatha Macbeth: Bleuji :)
    DR42 Resident: hi hi
    Agatha Macbeth: Definitely the only person I know called Aldous
    Bruce Mowbray feels that Wol should become a professional fish-namer.
    Agatha Macbeth: Maybe she could design one for us?
    Wol Euler smiles modestly.
    Agatha Macbeth: How's it going Bleu?
    Bleu Oleander: pretty good, u?
    Agatha Macbeth: Mm, good but sad summer is coming to an end
    Bruce Mowbray: sad summer?
    Bleu Oleander: happy for me :)
    Bleu Oleander: too hot!
    Agatha Macbeth: No good one, that's the point
    Agatha Macbeth: Yes, warm here too
    Bruce Mowbray: kk, "sad" that a good summer is coming to an end.
    Bruce Mowbray: (Got it!)
    Wol Euler grins.
    Agatha Macbeth pulls your antlers
    Wol Euler: it gains from careful phrasing
    Bruce Mowbray: ouch!
    Agatha Macbeth: What made you move to the desert Bleu?
    Bleu Oleander: good question!
    Bruce Mowbray: listens carefully.
    Bleu Oleander: still trying to formulate an answer to that one lol
    Agatha Macbeth: Thought it might be work or something
    Bleu Oleander: combo of things
    Agatha Macbeth: Ah
    Bleu Oleander: has its moments though
    Agatha Macbeth: Stormy did it for love of course :)
    Bruce Mowbray feels that most things in life (if not ALL) are combos of things.
    Agatha Macbeth: Bless him
    Agatha Macbeth: Yes, true that
    Bleu Oleander: well love was part of it :)
    Bruce Mowbray: ;-)
    Bruce Mowbray: origins are infinite.
    Bruce Mowbray: (like Dharma gates).
    Agatha Macbeth: People always seek simplistic explanaitions tho it seems
    Bleu Oleander: have any of you been to AZ?
    Wol Euler: nope
    Wol Euler: or: not yet
    Agatha Macbeth: I've been from A to Z :p
    Bruce Mowbray: AZ is only one of three states I have not yet had the pleasure to visit.
    Bleu Oleander: very nice Oct - June
    Agatha Macbeth: Lots of cactus?
    Bleu Oleander: indeed
    Bruce Mowbray makes note to visit in Oct - June.
    DR42 Resident: Many times.
    Bleu Oleander: yes?
    Bleu Oleander: did you like it?
    DR42 Resident: Yes, I was in Tucson, mostly, then Tempe.
    Bleu Oleander: its a very pretty state if you get out of the big cities
    Bruce Mowbray: Is your state really as beautiful as those photos in ARIZONA HIGHWAYS, Bleu?
    Bleu Oleander: yes!
    Bruce Mowbray: Ahhh!
    Bleu Oleander: should work for the dept of tourism haha
    --BELL--1315
    Bruce Mowbray: http://arizona-highways-magazine.com...FQ1gMgodrXQAxQ
    Bruce Mowbray: yw.
    DR42 Resident: it is quite pretty, but I would not trade it in for the fall in New England.
    Bleu Oleander: well, I might argue there
    Bleu Oleander: fall in the desert is gorgeous
    Bruce Mowbray: apples and oranges.
    Bleu Oleander: yes
    Bleu Oleander: the most beautiful sunsets are in the fall
    Bruce Mowbray: Newton and Einstein
    Bleu Oleander: :)
    Agatha Macbeth: Mm sunsets
    Bleu Oleander: I do love the fall back east though too
    Bruce Mowbray: "back east"?
    Bleu Oleander: NYC
    Bruce Mowbray: ou once lived "back east"?
    Bruce Mowbray: ahhhh!
    DR42 Resident: Everyone is entitled to their own opinion, no matter how twisted, sick, perverse, or wrong it may be. Mine is fairly twisted.
    Bruce Mowbray: so is my typist's, Maude.
    Bleu Oleander: sounds OK to me :)
    Wol Euler: sure, but that entitlement does not mean that we must listen to the opinion, much less accept it
    Bruce Mowbray: indeed, Wol.
    Wol Euler: the right of free speech includes the right of "don't give a damn, not going to listen"
    Agatha Macbeth: I take it as it comes
    DR42 Resident: But, I olny live in SL, and we don't have things like summer and winter here. Kind of like "The big island"
    Bruce Mowbray: Regard it, possible, as an 'emergence' of the larger Cosmos.
    Bruce Mowbray: possibly*
    Bleu Oleander: I would give it a listen ... maybe not a second listen ...
    Agatha Macbeth: Emergence...there's a word
    Bruce Mowbray: "All things are possible."
    Bruce Mowbray: Isn't "emergence" a lovely word?
    Agatha Macbeth: It is
    Bruce Mowbray: ;-)
    DR42 Resident: All things are possible, but not desirable.
    Bruce Mowbray: viva le difference!
    Bleu Oleander: pictures a butterfly when hearing emergence
    Agatha Macbeth: Oui
    Bruce Mowbray pictures transformation when imagining "emergence."
    Agatha Macbeth: Metamorphosis
    Agatha Macbeth: Yay flutterbies
    Bleu Oleander: uh oh here they come ...
    Agatha Macbeth: Now e just need Liz
    Bruce Mowbray: Did someone say "transformation"?
    Agatha Macbeth: +w
    Bleu Oleander: this is emergence on steroids :)
    Agatha Macbeth: Transformer was an album by Lou Reed
    Bruce Mowbray: https://www.google.com/search?q=Lou+...ient=firefox-a
    Agatha Macbeth: Take a walk on the wild side
    DR42 Resident: transformer is also an electrical component.
    Agatha Macbeth: Indeed
    Agatha Macbeth: Do they still make them?
    Bruce Mowbray: Transformers?
    DR42 Resident: Of course.
    Agatha Macbeth: Haven't been replaced by silicon chips then?
    Agatha Macbeth: Well that's good to know
    Bruce Mowbray: (Sleep easy, aggers.)
    Agatha Macbeth: Oh I do
    Agatha Macbeth: Waking up is my prob
    Bruce Mowbray: Oh yeah!
    Agatha Macbeth: I'm like a freakin zombie first thing
    Bruce Mowbray: (a recious moment, indeed.)
    Bruce Mowbray: precious*
    Agatha Macbeth: Precioussss
    DR42 Resident: Takes me 1 1/2 hours to wake up and be presentable.
    Bruce Mowbray: ;-)
    Agatha Macbeth: That fast?
    Bruce Mowbray: caffeine more caffeine more caffeine.
    Bleu Oleander: or a couple of dogs haha
    Agatha Macbeth: That just makes me go to the toilet too much
    Wol Euler: I can usually roll out of bed and get going in seconds
    Wol Euler: except for jetlag days
    Bruce Mowbray: Me too, Wol. My typist is definitely a "morning person."
    Agatha Macbeth: It's actually the rolling out that's the hard part
    DR42 Resident: Ah, the smell of cold pizza in the morning.
    Bruce Mowbray: yukkkk.
    Agatha Macbeth: Euch
    Agatha Macbeth: Snap
    Zen Arado: 's current display-name is "Zen".
    Agatha Macbeth: Hiya Zenny
    Bruce Mowbray: Yo, Zen-ji!
    Bleu Oleander: hiya Zen
    --BELL--1330
    Zen Arado: Hi all
    DR42 Resident: bruce, I am surprised that you didn't get the reference. Ah, the smell of napalm in the morning.
    Bruce Mowbray: Nope, didn't get that.
    Wol Euler: time for you to watch it again, I
    Wol Euler: I'd say :)
    DR42 Resident: Apocalypse Now
    Wol Euler grins.
    Bruce Mowbray: Ahhh! YES! HAROLD AND MAUDE
    Agatha Macbeth knows it well
    Bruce Mowbray: Or.....
    Wol Euler: or, indeed.
    Wol Euler: :)
    Bruce Mowbray: Apocalypse Now??????
    Agatha Macbeth: This is the end
    Wol Euler: mmhmm
    Wol Euler: "I love the smell of napalm in the morning." First spoken line of the film
    Wol Euler: well, first speech by a character, there are noises and voices from outside as he wakes up
    Agatha Macbeth: The book it was based on is good too
    Bruce Mowbray: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bPXVGQnJm0w
    Wol Euler: yes, love that too. One of the very rare occasions IMHO where a film is as good as the book
    Agatha Macbeth: Yes, that is indeed a rare event
    Bruce Mowbray: iconic.
    Agatha Macbeth: Tho in the case of Blade runner I found the opposite true
    Wol Euler: hmmmmmmmm
    Bruce Mowbray listens.,
    Wol Euler: you may be right :)
    Agatha Macbeth: Yay
    DR42 Resident: To Kill a Mockingbird. book == movie.
    Agatha Macbeth awards herself a gold star
    Wol Euler: certainly the "tears in the rain" scene is one of the best bits of cinema ever made by anyone anywhere#
    Agatha Macbeth: True that
    Bleu Oleander: if the book is a good book its nearly always better than the movie for me
    Agatha Macbeth: Usually
    Bleu Oleander: usually
    Wol Euler: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a_saUN4j7Gw
    DR42 Resident: Well, you are entitled to your own opinion, no matter how .... Wait, we went there already.
    Wol Euler smiles.
    Bleu Oleander: :)
    Zen Arado: haven't seen either film
    Agatha Macbeth: Bloody hell Zenny
    Zen Arado: I'll have to get out more
    Agatha Macbeth: Where have you been all your life?
    Wol Euler: hello zen, didn't see you arrive
    Zen Arado: not watching films anyway :)
    Agatha Macbeth: Evidently!
    Agatha Macbeth: Playing music I guess
    Bruce Mowbray: "Quite an experience to live in fear, isn't it?"
    Zen Arado: doing useful things like...umm..
    Agatha Macbeth: Yah
    Zen Arado: couldwatch on internet
    Zen Arado: but that's illegal
    Bruce Mowbray: "I've seen things you people wouldn't believe."
    Wol Euler smiles.
    Bruce Mowbray: "all those moments will be lost in time, like tears in the rain."
    Agatha Macbeth: Indeed
    Bruce Mowbray: :(
    Zen Arado: I thought Apocalypse now was post apocalyptic
    Wol Euler:  (lost when he dies)
    Zen Arado: like thise Mel Gibson movies
    Zen Arado: looks like Vietnam
    Agatha Macbeth: I like the comment someone made 'Ford is thinking he'll never be as good as this guy'
    Wol Euler: there's a Borges short story about this, which starts with the death of an old man, who had seen a druid ceremony performed when he was a boy. He was the last person alive who had seen that, and now it's gone. Just as there was a last person to have heard Jesus, etc. (Paraphrasing)
    Agatha Macbeth: Lucrecia?
    Zen Arado: really enjoying 'History of Rock' Bleu
    Zen Arado: will do part 1 when it starts in September
    Bruce Mowbray reminds Bruce's typist of the last person in Native American tribes.
    Bleu Oleander: nice Zen
    Zen Arado: though Marjorie gave me videos already
    Agatha Macbeth: Hi Vorder
    Wol Euler: hello vorder
    Bleu Oleander: hi Vorder
    Bruce Mowbray: Heya, Vorder!

    Agatha Macbeth: +n
    Vorder Forder: hello.)
    DR42 Resident: Vorder,
    Zen Arado: Hi Vorder
    Vorder Forder: good evening
    Agatha Macbeth: You and your courses Zen
    Bleu Oleander: tried the songwriting course ... too much for me to follow
    DR42 Resident: There is a guitar course, also.
    Zen Arado: it reminds me fo doing poetry in writing course
    Zen Arado: he is a great teacher though
    --BELL--1345
    Zen Arado: but I would likwe to learn how to produce melodies
    Bruce Mowbray: yw.
    Zen Arado: songs need a singer
    Agatha Macbeth: Wow, your fish did the pause too Bruceie
    Zen Arado: polite fish

    DR42 Resident: If I tried to use my teeth on an electric guitar, I would electrocute myself.
    Agatha Macbeth: Zzap
    Zen Arado: oh?
    Bruce Mowbray: ouch!
    Bertram Jacobus: we just had a interruption of the water system here in cologne (!) tz ... ;-)

    DR42 Resident: Happens in Boston all the time.
    Bleu Oleander: interesting what we take for granted
    Bruce Mowbray: never happens here at the farm, because my typist has his own pump and well.
    Agatha Macbeth: Well well
    Wol Euler: wells run dry where fracking is used
    Bruce Mowbray: ha ha!
    Bertram Jacobus: i think, people get more and more confused and the money goes more and more to some accumulations and so away from the masses where it would be needed (!) ...
    Agatha Macbeth: Just don't go too many times Bruce, you know the old saying
    Zen Arado: can't imgine doing without water
    Bruce Mowbray: (No fracking here, thank goodness.)
    Agatha Macbeth: Right
    Bertram Jacobus: it does not work : life without water
    Bertram Jacobus: at least not as we know it ...
    Bertram Jacobus: and yes : that feels very ungerman ! ... ;o)
    Agatha Macbeth nods
    Wol Euler: Bob Marley reference?
    Agatha Macbeth ponders?
    Bruce Mowbray: "One Love"?
    Agatha Macbeth: Wholemeal porridge?

    Agatha Macbeth: I always wished I could play the piano or violin
    Zen Arado: keyboard
    Bertram Jacobus: ty zen :-)
    Bertram Jacobus: klavier = keyboard ? no, i guess ...
    Wol Euler: piano
    Wol Euler: ?
    Bertram Jacobus: hehe klavier = piano ?
    Wol Euler: there are many keyboard instruments :)
    Zen Arado: clavier is keyboard in French
    Zen Arado: so I just guessed
    Bertram Jacobus: my dictionary says piano ...
    Agatha Macbeth: Piano is klavier in german then?
    Bertram Jacobus: yes !
    Agatha Macbeth: Aha
    Bertram Jacobus: :-))
    Agatha Macbeth: Makes sense somehow

    Zen Arado: a generic word
    Santoshima Resident: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ikbQ4lThJGo

    Bertram Jacobus: *click*
    Santoshima Resident: 1 hour +
    Bertram Jacobus: nice link - "clavier" ... :-)
    Bertram Jacobus: and yes aggers : klavierspiel is a term which can be used ... :-)
    Agatha Macbeth: Yay
    Bertram Jacobus: :-))
    --BELL--1415
    Bertram Jacobus: vorder - i think we did not meet before - are you visiting pab since already a while ? ... :-)
    Agatha Macbeth: You have been coming a while now I think?
    Agatha Macbeth: Seems a long time
    Wol Euler: End of October 2011 is when I met Vorder first :)
    Agatha Macbeth nods
    Bertram Jacobus: yes : i must admit that i was not here very often the last months ... sry ... :-/
    Agatha Macbeth: Aww
    Agatha Macbeth: And we miss you too
    Agatha Macbeth: Still good to see you on sundays
    Bertram Jacobus: first life is just "too busy" - so no time left for everything i would like to do (!) ...
    Agatha Macbeth: Berti the ladies man :p
    Bertram Jacobus: and sl and pab needs a lot of time, is my impression - am i wrong ?
    Agatha Macbeth: I think you're right
    Bertram Jacobus: hehe aggers - you found one point ! ;-) - although ... i would use other words and angles of perspective, in a way ... ;-))
    Agatha Macbeth smiles
    Bertram Jacobus: i love when people recognize others (!) ...
    Agatha Macbeth grins
    Wol Euler: anything worth doing takes time, and many things that aren't worth doing too :)
    Bertram Jacobus: other fear that (!) ...
    Agatha Macbeth: Yep
    Bertram Jacobus: + s
    Bertram Jacobus: i experience very much "hiding people versus open people" these days ...
    Agatha Macbeth: In RL or SL?
    Bertram Jacobus: both. because sl is a part of rl ...
    Agatha Macbeth: Hmm
    Bertram Jacobus: hmm ? ;-)
    Wol Euler listens.
    Bertram Jacobus: what does that mean, pls ? ;-)
    Agatha Macbeth: That could be a topic on its own
    Bertram Jacobus: which topic, pls ?
    Agatha Macbeth: Hiding v Open
    Santoshima Resident: is that introvert/extrovert?
    Bertram Jacobus: ah okay. i experience that that is very much linked with fear ... so ... not easy to talk about for the hidden folks ...
    Bertram Jacobus: i think, introvert/extrovert is at least very close to open - hidden -
    Bertram Jacobus: i experience it so intense because ma gf is the opposite side of me relating to this topic (!) ...
    Wol Euler is curious.
    Agatha Macbeth: Opposites attract eh?
    Bertram Jacobus: no. not so much as similarities
    Agatha Macbeth: Not like magnets then
    Bertram Jacobus: common interests are more helpful, easie
    Bertram Jacobus: r
    Agatha Macbeth: Right
    Bertram Jacobus: but some differences are interesting, for sure
    Agatha Macbeth: Maybe works both ways
    Bertram Jacobus: and what about is your curiosity wol, pls ? ;-)
    Bertram Jacobus: i would say : 80 % similarity and 20 % difference could be a nice mixture, for example ... ;o)
    Wol Euler: how you would say who is which :)
    Wol Euler grins.
    Bertram Jacobus: oh - you don´t guess that woly !? ...
    Wol Euler: oh yes :)
    Agatha Macbeth twangs Wol's straps
    Wol Euler: just being a little silly
    --BELL--1430
    Wol Euler: ow
    Bertram Jacobus: ;o)
    Bertram Jacobus: and i´m convinced that openness is better as being introverted (!) ...
    Wol Euler: why?
    Agatha Macbeth: Much of it is governed ny the personality
    Bertram Jacobus: because you don´t have to suffer from boundries, then
    Santoshima Resident: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3RjebdVKIAM
    Bertram Jacobus: boundaries - sry ...
    Wol Euler: perhaps others suffer from the extrovert's lack of boundaries
    Zen Arado: openness makes us more vulverable
    Zen Arado: heh
    Santoshima Resident: agreed wol, possible
    Bertram Jacobus: oh san - i still hear the clavier link ! ...
    Zen Arado: vulverable
    Wol Euler: I think that being what you are is better than trying to be something else
    Zen Arado: vulnerable
    Zen Arado: no vulva involved
    Zen Arado: :)
    Bertram Jacobus: lol
    Santoshima Resident: aw
    Agatha Macbeth: Oh my
    Bertram Jacobus: but wol - how then we develop ?
    Bertram Jacobus: and for sure openness should not harm (!) ...
    Bertram Jacobus: and motivation is the key i would say ...
    Zen Arado: it is lowering defences too
    Bertram Jacobus: when you don´t need any defence that is the best defence ...
    Zen Arado: so we are careful who we expose ourselves to
    Wol Euler: okay, my statement was far too broad
    Zen Arado: hmm sometimes we have to protect I think
    Agatha Macbeth: Should always beware of exposing yerself
    Zen Arado: heh
    Zen Arado: :)
    Wol Euler: feeling that one's basic mode of being is invalid, is a bad thing. (Assuming for the moment that your basic mode is not a murderous psychopath)
    Bertram Jacobus: more or less zen. less is better in my opinion - if we need to do that less i mean ...
    Zen Arado: but I agree we should be as open as we dare
    Wol Euler: always respecting the involuntary listeners' right not to have to hear your shit :)
    Zen Arado: without allowing ourselves unnecessary hurt
    Zen Arado: to be
    Zen Arado: or something
    Bertram Jacobus: we could have a look at the things which says : there is nothing unneccesairy ...
    Vorder Forder: you can hear shit
    Vorder Forder: ?
    Wol Euler: spoken shit, aye
    Wol Euler smiles.
    Vorder Forder: spoken shit
    Agatha Macbeth: You can smell it too
    Zen Arado: better go ...tired
    Santoshima Resident: bye Zen
    Vorder Forder: gone

    Agatha Macbeth: Of which there are many
    Bertram Jacobus: it´s a part of us, an aspect ...
    Bertram Jacobus: so to say -
    Wol Euler: I err, therefore I am
    Bertram Jacobus: *giggle*
    Agatha Macbeth: Err...
    Bertram Jacobus: how´s your live currently wol ? much work again ?
    Wol Euler: alas no, almost nothing to do
    Agatha Macbeth: Oh dear
    Wol Euler: we have one small house project, that's the only paid job at the moment
    Agatha Macbeth: No wonder you're falling asleep
    Wol Euler: hehehe
    Wol Euler: so we are doing competitions and hoping
    Wol Euler: we have stuff in the pipeline, with indefinite dates
    Bertram Jacobus: so - the usual architecs life ?
    Wol Euler: yep
    Agatha Macbeth: Is there a slump in the architect business now?
    Bertram Jacobus: :-))
    Wol Euler: feast followed by famine
    Wol Euler: I don't know, it has been down for a long while. I'm not sure if the state now has worsened
    Agatha Macbeth nods
    Agatha Macbeth: The building trade seems to me one which has been least affected by recession
    Bertram Jacobus: did i tell already that fee's (ma gf) best gf commited suicide two weeks ago ? ... *sigh*
    Wol Euler: oh damn, no I didn't know
    Agatha Macbeth: 0.0

    Bertram Jacobus: tyvm ...
    --BELL--1445
    Bertram Jacobus: you may know or not : i lost my only brother many years ago - so i have some impressions how such feels ...
    Bertram Jacobus: i felt for two weeks as if the world would stand still ...
    Wol Euler: are you comfortable with this going into the log, berti?
    Bertram Jacobus: i thought about it - handle it as you like - but ... i think ... i would like to see that in the log ...
    Agatha Macbeth: OK
    Wol Euler: okay :)
    Bertram Jacobus: because that are the real important things -
    Bertram Jacobus: and i find it sad when we often only have so to say smoothed versions of our realities
    Agatha Macbeth: I would agree
    Wol Euler nods.
    Agatha Macbeth: But 'edit' is always a useful standby ;)
    Bertram Jacobus: now, slowly, live begins to go on for her ... and me as a close person ...
    Wol Euler reaches over and gives your hand a squeeze
    Bertram Jacobus: sure - when there are people who want to edit something, that is not illegitim ately
    Bertram Jacobus: and she canceled her job now ...
    Agatha Macbeth: Oh dear
    Bertram Jacobus: what may be a good decision ...
    Bertram Jacobus: it was a bit heavy ...
    Agatha Macbeth: Not surprising
    Wol Euler nods.
    Bertram Jacobus: no. some things came together ...
    Bertram Jacobus: but we can learn from everything (!) ...
    Wol Euler smiles.
    Wol Euler: well, give her my regards and my encouragement, please
    Agatha Macbeth: Me too
    Bertram Jacobus: i learned from the sudden death of my young brother the truth of fugacity, very intense
    Bertram Jacobus: yes. ty. when i will have a situation to tell her from our talk here ...
    Wol Euler: of course
    Wol Euler: it won't be the first thing on her mind :) nor should it be
    Bertram Jacobus: as said, she is more hidden and so i always have to see, how i can slowly show her that my openness is ... good (!) ...
    Bertram Jacobus: we learn so much with each other !
    Agatha Macbeth: Good
    Bertram Jacobus: it´s wonderful and really special
    Bertram Jacobus: we want to stay together for our whole life - we both have never felt such before ...
    Wol Euler: awwww
    Wol Euler smiles.
