I know it's a bit much at times for those on the outside looking in to hear about my history and life.
I sometimes have to sit here and stare at the ceiling and let my mind really take it all in myself.
Places, people, things I did when I was a young lad.
Nowadays, I sit here with 3 cats and 9 computers whacking away at Seti....
And my past at times, seems so detached from where I am now.
So, please pardon me if I have to revel in the past at times.
Life has been at times a most amazing adventure for me. And if my sharing it with you is troublesome, just block me out is the only advice I can offer to you.
Many already have, I am sure.
I do also have a few stalwart friends like Chris that do their dead level best to take me to task when I need it, and like a spanked child, I do come around sooner or later...LOL.
God made IBM clickies for a reason, dammit....
And I wear out one every few years or so. No worries, I have a good backup supply.
And if anybody needs a manly kinda keyboard, here is my source......

I can clarify things for you, Chris.

I 'slept' with JJ for one special night.
We were both teenagers, and did what most teenagers do.
We cuddled a lot and then kissed and said goodnight.

No, we did not have sex together, although I understand that is what most think I meant.

You have to understand that we were both just kids then, and JJ was not yet who she was to become later in her life. She had no more significance at that point than any other kid on the block. She was special, but just because that was Joan, she is and always has been a very special gurl.
Not the persona she took on later.

She was just at the time, a very wonderful girl with the most beautiful eyes and smile one could imagine.

And buddy, she remembers me. Not publicly, but I know she does.
What kid does not remember their first kiss?

I admit, it was a special moment that perhaps I should have not shared.
But she was my first love, and that lasts forever.

BTW, I have had no indications that my posting here is in any trouble in the least. Jord will advise me if I step out of line. He is very frank with me about such things. I have had one post modded, and that was out of line.

I also have been in close contact with Eric, and while he supports me, he is leaving things in the hands of the mod crew. He is not going to overstep them.
His decision. I have to live with it.

You, my friend, if I can continue to call you such, read too much at times into what I say, without really comprehending my meaning.
I do appreciate your feedback. I really and truly do.

You could also run the risk of being zapped here also for not staying in one thread.

Please point out to me where this weird rule is given that Mark must stay in one thread only, because otherwise....? The same rules that apply to you do apply to him, the same freedom to post that you have is shared by Mark, so why do you feel the need to give him a warning over this?

Now that you may not like it that he's not exclusively posting in his kitty-sounds thread is something you may have to work on. He has as much a right to start a new thread, and to post in other threads as he sees fit, as you and everyone else around here has.

The only caveat is Knut, from whom we would like to keep his many user accounts with which he's posting his musings about numbers, conspiracies and so fort together in one thread.

And whilst we are at it...
That kpax thingy...
Yes, THAT is real. I do believe I was sent here from another planet to be who I am and what I have become.
This is not something I made up from scratch.
It came to me one night long ago, before the movie was even scripted.
So, when I found the movie many years later, it was like the most amazing revelation that somebody else could conceive such an idea.

I am not a nutcase/.
I am very serious about this. I believe it to be true.
And if you think THAT makes me a raving lunatic, so be it.

I understand the movie and all it's implications. If you find the correct ending to the movie, it is apparent that then entire thing was composed in the mind of a man that could not comprehend or deal with an insane injustice that was thrust into his life. And so, he makes up another reality to live in.
Not in my case.
I live in a very real world. The same one you inhabit.
You are part of it. And although I do believe that I was sent here on a mission from another place and time, you don't have to believe as I do.

But, the movie states it most beautifully..
This life is all you have.

And I thank you again, Jord, for your understanding and giving the kitties a space to play in.

I know, not all of my musings appeal to all folks.
Some, apparently don't like me at all.
And, I am OK with that.
I just present my thoughts and views, take it or leave it.
What the mods on Seti don't understand yet, is my thoughts and views are valid for at least me.

And while that disturbs some, I do have some things to say from time to time.

And I find your kindness very welcome.

@chris, AFIK Mark is having fun. Having fun is one of the rules for this thread. If you can't mentally filter his posts here, there is an electronic filter available. I suggest you engage it. Then you will be able to have fun.

You talk about what will or won't happen at Seti. Are you Fred? Or are you doing exactly what got Mark a perma-ban?

Finally if you think Marks posts are "scrolling" or some other actual banned thing, press the red x, state your case and let the moderators here decide.

Late edit - I think you are just stirring things Gary. I have Mark's best interests at heart, do you?

If you are trying to counsel Mark, may I suggest PM and not public display.

or I could say that if you really did sleep with her you could show her some respect by not going on and on about it.

Could do that. Ecxept then the world would not know.
An I am telling. Worse things are going on, kiddo.

So you are just another bloke who made out with a woman and now you think you have some sort of ownership of her.

It is creepy and it makes be feel very bad for her. I wish you'd stop.

Has the subject turned to meeting famous or infamous people?

I once went to school with a crown prince of the UAE. Didn't know it at the time. Would I dare to call upon him now? HELL NO!! They behead people over there. Just trivia

I once knew Richard Ross (Diana's brother) nice enough guy, can't say anything about her since never met her.

I did meet John Denver decades ago at the first night time launch of the Space Shuttle. Imagine my surprise (I was barely a teenager then) when I found out I was actually taller than he was. (Yet to hit my growth spurt)

About it...Got an uncle who used to drive tour buses for some of the big rock stars back in the day but those are his stories not mine...

Oh well....

edit..opps..

almost forgot, knew Eva Longoria's parents long before she was famous. They once asked me about fixing me up with her. I politely declined. Very nice couple though. I hope they are doing well.

That might be interesting. My dad used to roadie for Herman's Hermits and he once drove Deep Purple to the South of France. I bet there are a surprising amount of boincers with famous connections.

Oh well....

Do you regret your decision?

Creepy??
No, it was my real life experience, gurl.
Sad, perhaps.
But that was the way it worked out.
Your comment as being sad was misplaced, I hope, and upon reflection I hope that you might retract is.

Everything I have posted about JJ and myself is true and factual.
I have had no comms with her since about our first tryst. As simple as it was, there was more to it than you may believe.
It is rather demeaning that you believe that I have taken any advantage over her.
And that angers me a bit.
I met JJ on a street corner by chance.
There was NOT any probability at that time that either that glance or her future life would be revealed to me.
It was love at first sight..........at least for me it was.

Neck up, the eyes.

And I am very sorry for you, ES, if you have never experienced such a thing.
Shock and awe...LOL, nothing like it.
A turn of the page, so to speak.
I have had the adventure of feeling it first hand not once, but twice.
First was with JJ.
And the second was with Lori, my current and forever love.
Few people on this earth have had the fine fortune to have had more than one.
If even one.

Looking back now it might have been interesting just to have met her. Timing was wrong, I was planning on moving out of that city at the time.

Thou to be truthful I could do that now as she holds an annual Christmas Charity here in my city to which I could go if I choose to give a big enough donation, lol. But have never really thought about it. So no regrets.

I have met several of the San Antonio Spurs including her ex but never brought up that bit of trivia. ;)

If you could pose that question, it should prove most interesting.
But....
As well you should not..........might get a black eye in the process.
I don't think it would be well received. JJ has distanced me from all else in her life, and I don't think rifling that bit would go over very well.
If you got the balls to give it a go, please do let me know the outcome, buddy.
Might be a real waste of any street creds you have, though.

If I were more well heeled, shall we say, I might be trying to take her to task personally.

She will get around to me one day, I think.
Not hard to find me. She is a very smart gurl. If and when Joan starts to get around to thinking about things in her past life, as I have, she shall seek me out again.

I have no doubts about it. Life has a funny way of reminding you about your past. It keeps nagging you until you do something about it.
And to tell ya true, there are still some questions I should ask of her.
None that could bear public witness. Just a few personal things I'd like to clear up in my mind. If she would do so, it would heal a lot of past wounds.

I see no reason to bring it up. Idle thinking.

But I really did like her parents and whenever I see her on TV think about them.

They reminded me of my grandparents. (Typical hispanic grandparents, lol)

Now the Spurs guys are interesting.

Duncan and the retired player Sean Elliott are gearheads.

I've met them in parking lots when I drive my car. They have come over to look at it.

Duncan actually has a hotrod shop down the street from my work.
