I want to thank one and all for an entertaining four years. I could say it has lasted far longer than I had planned but in fact, I had not planned it at all. It was a spontaneous decision on a whim.
I will miss it, most of it, but not all.
I can assure you that I am in good health.
It is obvious to me that the EB has not evolved into what it could have been. No one can take more responsibility for that than me. Perhaps I should have been more restrictive of the comments but I doubt that would have made much of a difference.
I hope you found the EB mostly entertaining and enjoyable. I did.
Good night Melody. Goodnight Trish. Good night All.
Good luck and goodbye.
If it's sunset time
ReplyDeleteGuess I'll ride along into it.
Adios, toda el mundo.
ReplyDelete.
ReplyDeleteDeuce and Whit,
Sorry to see the old place shut down. It provided me with a great outlet during a bad time. Best to both of you in the future.
Melody, happy birthday in advance. Looks like we won't be making any of those midnight rendevous. But this is bigger than both of us, and we will always have Capricorn.
Ruf, happy birthday to you too. I may have to follow you over to The Oil Drum just to irritate you but it won't be the same.
Trish, I hope you find what you are looking for. Good luck.
Best wishes to everyone else.
.
Well, hell, if any of you knew what a bad week I had, and now this.
ReplyDeleteI am going to miss it......my wife will be joyous.
I will miss most all of you.....all you good people.
Like a family I don't have.....even if I'm the wayward son.
Quirk, I lost your e-mail....could you send it to me?
What will I do without Rufus?
OOOO.....
Ruf you got an email....send it to me
And Trish.....you could send me your email too..we'll talk lit once in a while bout books and stuff
And, and, .. .. O O O
Best to you all....
Thanks
Deuce and
Whit for the limosine ride

And WiO you MUST send me your email as I want to have a coffee with you when I get back there in a few months. Allen please do the same. And Sam. And Doug. And Miss T the Winner and Lover of Twain, like me. And Whit. And Deuce.

ReplyDelete"We're not interested in what a Canadian has to say about this one Ash."
Aye typical American 'head in the sand' attitude. Ironically I'm a full blooded American - born in the USA with born in the USA parents. I still carry a USA Passport, can, and do, vote in the USA, but, I choose to live in Canada. Heck, I even have to file US tax returns.
I used to hear bullshit like that Rufus when I opposed the Iraq adventure - more ironies given the shift in opinion of many of the patrons here.
As to shutting this place down - I hope not. It could be run with significantly less work from Deuce. What I like about the place is the varied cast of characters and the fact that it isn't a very large cast. If things get too big, too popular, there is just too much stuff going on, too many comments, just too much. Heck, if you want a site to to continue to chat you can go to ashrants.com but I'd rather y'all stay here.
Ash you idiot child I want to take this opportunity.....please please PLEASE put a different face on yourself.
ReplyDeleteGod Almighty!
But I quess it won't matter much now.
Ash, do not send me your email address.

ReplyDeleteAmbivalence might best express my feelings.
It all started out as great fun, a lark, a poke in the eye of another consequential blog gone to seed.
Hopes were high. The talent and latent intelligence were stellar.
I will miss almost everyone, despite being persona non grata.
Deuce, you have a gift. In time I hope you use it again - perhaps with a more mature appreciative cast of characters (sadly, including me).
Best to all and "Be well".

ReplyDeleteMy father talked about everyone here as if he actually knew you so your closing down is a surprise. I wish you well.
ReplyDeleteQuirk: Once again I want to thank you for your kind comments about my father.
I was going to comment today anyway. A couple of people emailed me to ask that my father's site be re-opened for a while so that they could review some of the material. I have done so.
I want to emphasise that the blog is not re-opening. I don't mind answering a few questions but I simply don't have the time (or the talent) to run a blog.
Best wishes to you all.

ReplyDeleteHere is the Viktor Silo link.
I was joking about the exit speech. I guess you weren't. I never really fit in but I made the most of my time here and for the most part it was my pleasure.
ReplyDeleteDeuce and Whit, you have shown nothing but respect for me and I want to thank you for that. I hope you're making the right decision. I'm sure you are as the decision probably wasn't as spontaneous as the decision it was to open this place. If this is truly you last I want to wish you luck and commend you on all the hard work you put into running this place.
WiO, are you sure you don't want my email. ( :
Quirk, we can always meet here after hours
ReplyDeleteYou're bad!
ReplyDeleteI know. But it's all harmless.
ReplyDeleteI did email you.
I do want to thank Quirk, though, for giving me that opportunity. It was fun. The blog was fabricated as joke but maybe I'll use it to finish what Quirk started.
ReplyDelete.
ReplyDeleteI might do that Mel. But if you shut it down, let me know where you move on to.
I am now homeless or at least blogless.

ReplyDeleteLet us quit with the very best --
ReplyDeleteI believe in you my soul, the other I am must not abase itself to
you,
And you must not be abased to the other.
Loafe with me on the grass, loose the stop from your throat,
Not words, not music or rhyme I want, not custom or lecture, not
even the best,
Only the lull I like, the hum of your valved voice.
I mind how once we lay such a transparent summer morning,
How you settled your head athwart my hips and gently turn'd over
upon me,
And parted the shirt from my bosom-bone, and plunged your tongue
to my bare-stript heart,
And reach'd till you felt my beard, and reach'd till you held my
feet.
Swiftly arose and spread around me the peace and knowledge that pass
all the argument of the earth,
And I know that the hand of God is the promise of my own,
And I know that the spirit of God is the brother of my own,
And that all the men ever born are also my brothers, and the women
my sisters and lovers,
And that a kelson of the creation is love,
And limitless are leaves stiff or drooping in the fields,
And brown ants in the little wells beneath them,
And mossy scabs of the worm fence, heap'd stones, elder, mullein and
poke-weed.
The very best --
the hum of your valved voice.
Whitman and Twain, they are AMERICA!

ReplyDeleteThe shooting of the congresswoman and the people around her in AZ was a tragedy. However, does it call for Boehner to shut down the House for a week to 'reflect' on it?
If reflecting on this shooting results in all parties toning down the rhetoric and taking a more civil approach, all the better. But with the problems we have in this country, shouldn't Congress be doing it's job?
On This Week Christiane Amenpour and George Stephanopolous tried their damnest to convince everyone that the shooting was the result of the heated rhetoric in this country. They were disappointed when George Will said in country of 308 million you are going to have some 'whack-jobs' and it looks like this was one of them.
Christiane was obviously upset when Dick Armey told her she should be looking to psychology not sociology for the answers here.
Oh yea, Donna Brazile presented the liberal case by calling for more security.
It's a great country we live in.

ReplyDeleteIt's been a love/hate relationship from the beginning. (This past spring and summer weren't too bad.)

ReplyDeleteThere were some things I really, truly enjoyed writing.
If I went back and read them I wouldn't like them as much as I did at the time. That almost always goes without saying.
But the act was pleasantly absorbing.
It always has been.
At least now I have an excuse to go the gym.

Except that that was MY decision.
He gave me a ton of investment advice.
ReplyDeleteI saved it, along with a lot of other emails. In a blue folder I went looking for recently. I was curious to see what I was thinking and how much it's changed.
I cannot manage to find it.

ReplyDeleteSorry, Trish.
I am always shooting from the hip and regretting it two minutes later.
That's what's so good about the delete icon. Unfortunately, I wrote that last comment using the Name/URL and there was no way to pull it back.
I meant what I said on my first post. Hope everything works out for you. Sounds like you have a plan.

ReplyDeleteBy text message.
I posted it above, Bob. Oh well,
ReplyDeleteGalop47@yahoo.com
I sometimes go months without checking it, however.
ReplyDeleteShe's got more formal education than me, and is much more emotionally stronger. I have set her up financially ,though, cause I'm the guy with big bucks, but she can walk out anytime.
ReplyDeleteShe is truly a very wonderfull woman, a Methodist of the old school.
You get her in a nice motel, watch out!
:)
grrr sorry
ReplyDeleteRuf I wasn't thinking as usual
I got it now
It's time to go
ReplyDeleteHow would these people be "taking you for a ride, bob?" Did anyone here borrow money from you or make you a business proposition? I understand her other sentiments, but that one...
ReplyDeleteRE: The left's reaction to the shooting. It began immediately and of course, Palin is the lightning rod. They need a devil and she is the she-devil du jour.
I was reading comments over at Balloon Juice (I always think Beetle Juice which to me is more appropriate anyway) yesterday and their animus was directed at everything conservative. The second amendment, guns, Palin, etc.
You get her in a nice motel, watch out!
ReplyDeleteTMI.
Besides, what would she do if she knew you shared that info?
She only trusts the people she grew up with in the Ohio valley there, Whit.
ReplyDeleteI have no explanation for it.
She doesn't even trust me, her thirty year partner.
I've said all along women are a true mystery.
???????
Sometimes they take a position that makes it hard to even help 'em out a little bit.
One can get the job done, but it makes it tough.
They are, actually, crazy.
So, bob. Have you been scouting possible new bars/clubs/blogs?
ReplyDeleteNo, I don't really recall how I got hooked up here in the first place.
ReplyDeleteI would like your personal email,
Whit, in case you get out this way, I can, and will, recommend some drives.

Oh, you're still not here.
ReplyDeleteWell, I was thinking. I've been out shopping all afternoon and purchased four items. I saved a whopping 85.43 and only spent under 20.00.
There is a lot of art work here I'm sure I could sift through to find the perfect piece that would absolutely look lovely on my wall right over there.
So, before it goes up on Ebay a nice clearance sale for the regulars would be quite appreciated.
Gosh Mel, can't you wait until after the funeral before you start that?

ReplyDeleteThe realty was purchased in the old fashioned way and ownership conveyed by deed.

ReplyDeleteTrust me they are the lurkers now.
And they are still eating comments.
In my defense I think parading one's daughter's buns on the internet is what is sicko.
ReplyDeleteI'd never ever do that.
Nor ever take a picture like that.
My daughter and I, thankfully, have a wonderful relationship now, after some troubles. She is on the good red road, bless her.
In short, Melody and Quirk are the sickos on this subject.
ReplyDeleteAnd those buns are just ordinary buns, nothing special about them at all, except the willingness to flaunt them around like a whore.
No one ever said that was my daughter. EVER!
ReplyDeleteYou fabricated that idea all on your own.
Again, I will kindly ask you not to mention it again.
I won't mention it again. But it isn't you, and your daughter is heavily tattooed on the back and the hair is the same. So just who is it?
ReplyDeleteReasonable question.
She is pretty whoever she is.
Skin deep at least.
Again, I will kindly ask you not to mention it again
ReplyDeleteDon't flaunt her up there again like a whore
My daughter has one tattoo on her back and her hair is nothing like that.

ReplyDeleteFINE!
ReplyDeleteDon't you remember when the post was first put up and Deuce said this:
"I have been informed that this is a photgraphic self portrait. I cannot authenticate this information."
Why he wrote it, I have no clue but a statement like that opens up many avenues. I just took one and Quirk followed. End of story.
It's called humor.
ReplyDeleteIf I may. I have been following the EB since it first opened for business. I shamlessly admit to posting at the Belmont under a different monicker for reasons of my own. It would be a loss to see the EB close but has it ever occured to anyone that desert rat and deuce are one and the same? Deuce is desert rat without spell-check?
ReplyDeleteOne other small point; does anyone know why deuce spelled Vietnam, "Viet Nam"?
has it ever occured to anyone that desert rat and deuce are one and the same?
ReplyDeleteNo, that has never occurred to me. But it has occurred to me that you may have used a male moniker here in the past.
Thanks Deuce and Whit.
ReplyDeleteLearned a lot here. Am grateful.
Take care.

ReplyDeleteIt's One, Two, Three, Four, What're we fightin' for? Don't ask me I Don't Give a Damn Next Stop is Viet Nam
ReplyDeleteFrom Wiki:
ReplyDeleteEtymology
Main article: Names of Vietnam
Việt Nam (Vietnamese pronunciation: [vjə̀tnam]) was adopted as the official name of the country by Emperor Gia Long in 1804.[12] It is a variation of "Nam Việt" (南越, Southern Việt), a name used in ancient times.[12] In 1839, Emperor Minh Mạng renamed the country Đại Nam ("Great South").[13] In 1945, the nation's official name was changed back to "Vietnam". The name is also sometimes rendered as "Viet Nam" in English.[14]
Great News, Whit. Maybe we can figure something out. Bob (Hunter Thompson) had it right earlier - This place might be too weird to live, but, dammit, it might be to Special to Die.
ReplyDeleteAwe, Whit you caved first.

ReplyDeleteDid you have a bet on it?
ReplyDeleteYes, and I lost.
ReplyDeleteI admit to being all the things I am accused of being, but thank the Lord I ain't Quirk.
ReplyDeleteJesus, what a fate.
And I admit to not understanding women at all, the most mysterious things in the whole universe.
I also affirm that "The Exstasie" is the best poem of love ever written.
Which should be taken seriously, and not as idealism, as dumb shit Quirk says, a sixty year old acting out as sixteen, forever.
But that's what you get, living in motor city. The loosening and degradatioh of all things noble and true.
You get the drift of the stars, fate, muzzieness, rather than destiny, the struggle with G-D, like the Jews.
So there!!!!!
I'm not sure what yet but just remember it has nothing to do with the art I"m willing to purchase at 90% off.

ReplyDeleteStill venting Bob?
There were no children mentioned or involved in the story you're recalling. Once again, you take a few bits of info and construct your own "Bob's World" view of it. Most often, as in the case with Mel scope photo, it is 180 degrees from the truth.
You admit you've screwed up. But then you continue to do it again. You say your sorry but it makes no difference. Hearing someone repeatedly say they're sorry eventually gets old.
Someone said, being sorry is the highest act of selfishness, seeing value only after discarding it.

How is it Quirk that I find you totally disgusting one minute and laughable and enjoyable the next?
ReplyDeleteI don't know.
You are an older man, like me. Perhaps it is time to strain our necks upwards, towards the stars.
Melody is a middle aged woman with domestic duties, and time on her hands. A taker of wonderful photos (someone back there has true talent with a camera) many on the sexual side, she is a very wonderful wonman, I love when she talks of her grand daughter, such talk warms my heart more than all the porn in the world - that's what I like - a good kitchen scene, with just a hint of sexuality - not this flaunting of buns, whose buns I know not - this flaunting of buns on the internet.
Like Deuce said - beauty is everywhere where you find it.

More, you forget the point of the story. The fact that when sober I recognized that laughing at such was wrong, but that under drugs the extraordinary can seem bizaare and funny.
You bring this up as an excuse to mitigate your current behavior. You accuse me of being juvenile. True enough. Maybe I need to grow up (not likely to happen). But it is usually harmless, and if I see that I have offended I will usually cease, apologize, and back off.
You on the other hand, after being politely told to back off on numerous occasions, have continued this weird call for an 'ass-off' between daughters for the better part of two weeks.
You have said you've had a bad week and I suspect there are things you’re not telling. For that I am sorry, but it is still no excuse for continuing your silly ranting.

Peace
ReplyDeleteLike the lady says
