"They're back at it!!"
An odd statement I heard, off and on, as a child. I'm certain that it wasn't in reference to any meandering and randy stray cats, which would occassionaly howl under my window. But, it was never said who the "they" were; only "understood" by adults, so it seems.
Since about Mid January of this year, I've been hearing that some folks in some places are saying very unflattering and untrue statements about me. I'm also hearing that some of those untrue statements have possibly floated past some "little pitchers" with adult sized ears.
This sort of negative action is Soooo very reministant of those affidavits, emails, and assorted verbal and written statements by others about me back from 2007 and onward, and I've heard they are equally unflattering, if not more so.
And three (3) different folks in Alaska who I recently emailed about such "rumors", and also asked them about a particular person, have not replied. Again, as in 2007 and 2008, the Collective Silence is deafening.
HHHHHhhhhmmmmmmmm.
Now, why would that be?
This is the United States of America, where we have rules, and laws, and penalties for their being broken. We have a Constitution, and a reasonably fair, and reasonably equitable, civil and criminal justice system. Well, that's how it's supposed to work, in theory.
This isn't Hilter's Germany, and we don't have some "Secret Shadow Government" lurking under the deep cover of what's commonly called: "Black Ops".
Or do we?
I seem to have more than my fair share of the odd, weird, and just plain unblievable "stuff" happen to, and around me. So, in my usual good natured spirit, and classicly dry sense of humor, I've started another website which might be enjoyed by some.

I always like to have a Plan B, so today I wrote a little note for The Big Tree. Hopefully, "the word" will make it's way up the ladder, and enough is enough.
LEAN DOWN, BIG TREE

Sunday, March 25, 2012. The replies to my poetic words above were apparently read by many, and the replies were overall, of high quality. Many responders actually put fingers to keyboards and came up with equally catchy and intriguing replies.
One person and I had scheduled a coffee date at a local shop for tomorrow afternoon. As expected, it wasn't gunna happen, cuz he fumbled the ball, before making a pass. So to speak.
And shortly after I sent my final reply to Michael, my ad was "Flagged and Bagged" on Craigslist. No surprise there either, given the number of replies and the veiled words many contained.
Who's Zoomin' Who?

No need for our previously scheduled "meet and greet" on Monday.
Best to you,

Hi Michael,
Let's begin with "new acquaintance".
Tamiflu® was my reference to "Antivirals are powerful prescriptions"
So many folks I know, and some I only know of, seem to be stricken with some odd strain of Big Berg Flu, which has resurfaced since first "discovered" in Alaska in June of 2007, and is currently experiencing a resurgence, once again rapidly spreading across the country at warp speed.
Symptoms include spewing diarrhea from both ends, general CONfusion, group amnesia, hallucinations, inability to hear correctly, amazing abilities which appear between bouts of vomiting, i.e., apparent "psychic" abilities to "know" what I am doing, eating, or wearing across hundreds or thousands of miles, etc.; only to suffer a "relapse" of Big Berg Flu when I ask a few specific questions, or point out CONflicting details between affected persons, and their collective recollection of real and imagined, events or incidents.
If you have an antidote for such an odd medical malady, we'll probably have much to discuss.
If not, that's OK.
I understand.
Maybe the CDC will take that particular "strain" under the microscope? No other "agency" seems willing to assist in the discovery of this prolific and puzzling public health menace.

Good Morning Paula its Michael your new friend,
A question for you.
You mention the prescription of Antiviral and in the spirit of getting to know you, is this the flu, HPV, HIV, HDTV?
Sorry for asking I just want to make sure when I fall in love with you I'm informed.
