This one he already has. I hadn't remembered the poetry part, though. The French movie poem sounds so cool, just hearing it in French. Almost wish I could hear the Hungarian Eddie.<br /><br />I haven't stolen a book (that I recall), but we're sinners all, 'tis true. And it's what we feel about it that matters, to a great degree. Sounds like you "book thieves" are sorry.<br /><br />(Oh, wait, there was that Pixie and Dixie book my mom checked out in Illinois, but then we moved to Oklahoma and never returned it. Always felt guilty when I saw the back page with the card pocket.)deannahttp://deannahershiser.com/stories-glimmernoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7229875339727095184.post-48341901108029702412010-04-15T09:06:48.822-05:002010-04-15T09:06:48.822-05:00MANFRED: You have inspired an entire post (above)....MANFRED: You have inspired an entire post (above).<br /><br />BINK: Aw, please confess just ONE--the opportunity awaits above. <br /><br />MOMO: Well, at least you returned them!

Plautus' The Rope and Others (not the penguin edition, some Victorian hardback), from Hull University Library under the very nose of Philip Larkin, and two very old battered (not first editions) Waugh, Vile Bodies and A Handful of Dust.<br /><br />I swear I will return them. Well, the Plautus anyway. I was young and stupid and, it appears, slightly criminally inclined, but no more. <br /><br />I would ask that your other correspondents confess their little crimes, M'lud, in an attempt to, y'know, make me feel better.<br /><br />I should also say I have comitted no further crimes in the quarter century since these offences were committed...ooooooooooooooooooooooooooohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15347076050510425951noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7229875339727095184.post-79927159475965837302010-04-14T12:32:07.992-05:002010-04-14T12:32:07.992-05:00SPARKY: Me too!

I just watched two hours of Eddie with a friend last night. I was going to post on comedians. <br />Just as you posted "Rhymes with 'Cow'", I had a Ricky Gervais clip prepared in my drafts.<br />And I was barely surprised when you shared the lovely "Other Lines Out Loud"<br />while recordings of D. Thomas and T.S. you-know-who were waiting in the wings of my blogosphere. <br />THIS.<br />ALWAYS. <br />HAPPENS.<br />(Well, not always. But regularly enough to convince me of that elfish nature I already suspected in you.<br />"You're a WIZARD, Harry.")<br /><br />Get out of my brain, dude.<br /><br />2<br />That's pretty fair taste for a 15 year old!<br /><br />.<br />.<br />.<br />.<br />.<br /><br />67<br />After watching the Eddie clip, I had a hard time taking the poem seriously. For me, he kind of falls into the same vein of comedy as the Office: absolutely hilarious; a hoot! But just enough truth in it to give your laughter a suspicious after-taste.Marzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05258262409718943594noreply@blogger.com
