    Boy, the spam tries so hard to resemble meat, but it just can’t hack it. Ever notice that all the spammers are named “anonymous”?

    Thanks for sharing … enjoyed it.
    New York is like a never-never land. Exciting, cramped, full of rats, but what a place to be. Magic is always happening.

    How Yah Doon? from Nova Scotia? Remember Ms. Dubois could well be decendant from Nova Scotia when the Brits kicked out the French. And what would Ms. Bubois have to say about the weather?

    ” when do we get to see some pics, belle?”

    I can’t imagine a request for pictures from a guy who calls himself ‘crusher’ would be at all worrying for a lone female who has just moved to New York.

  13. 13 AntToeKnee Says:

    Ohhhhh especially if she saw his profile!

  14. 14 mollybob Says:

    There’s no way Cortez and Crusher are real.

    I’ve always wondered about who the people are behind these fake Internet persona’s

    I have the best intentions of putting pictures up… I just can’t figure out all this damn technology nonsense.

    My writing will have to be good enough for now…

    my favourite:

    “sei una donna straordinaria, come ti aspetti di vivere una vita normale?”
    L.M. Alcott

    improvised translation for english speakers:
    “you are an extraordinary woman, how can you expect to live an ordinary life?”

    this is for all the “Belle”’s around the world.
