But I did like Roger Daltry's character on the show. Though the ending was cheesy. What did anyone else think?

I *think* I retreated when I started smelling something burning and hence avoided any major damage. Ever since I've just lurked and enjoyed the analysis, interpretations and assorted wisdom posted by others. I never was a good debater. :) Oh, and went to the Baltimore con which was really neat but was too damn shy to just go up and foist myself upon other attendees/listees.

I do, too. The night we all got the bad news, I had a "get well" card sitting on my desk that was all ready to mail except for the stamp. It had been sitting there for at least a couple of weeks. It helped to read all the wonderful memorials to Kip, and hear from the people on the WNN list about him, but I still regret not sending that damn card the day his address was posted here on the list. Every other year or so, David and I find ourselves in Glenwood Springs, Colorado. I *think* that's where Kip is buried; anyway, for some reason, the place reminds me of him.. Actually, a lot of odd things remind me of him at times... a roll of duct tape. Beat up old sofas. Fireplace utensils. Animated spokeshands. The new ferret character in Get Fuzzy! (no, wait, that reminds me of Her Weezulness, but also of Kip). ;) A search on Google just brings back more memories... hey, waitaminnit, never saw this before: http://www.scn.rain.com/~minerva/highlander/war-9701/archives/final/pre-war/00 21.html Kip would have loved the "Thoroughly Modern Millie" gag. > >For PoRA(tm), the "Three-Armed One" refers to l*g*n's *shudder* > >visual image of Debbie as a three-armed Goddess. > > Hey, what happened to l*g*n, anyway?

You can't seriously be suggesting that Carmel is the type of pathetic loser who would bide her time for *two years* - nursing her hurt feelings and waiting for an opportunity to swoop in and hit back over some ancient perceived personal attack?? What an awful thing to suggest! I just can't believe that Carmel is the kind of person who would lurk on a list for months and months with the sole purpose of slamming someone for a long ago "sting". No....No....*I* believe that Carmel was moved by Nina's arguments and felt that she had something positive to contribute to the discussion. To suggest any other motive for Carmel's post is to do her a great injustice. >And the list has not been the same since. I don't think the list has been the same since Kip died..but we soldier on nonetheless.

Now, I'm confused. It was "*not* a long time ago." Yet, it is now "two years later." Admittedly, 2 years isn't _that_ long in terms of this list's entire run, but it IS a hell of a long time to bear a grudge, which seems to be what you are assuming about Carmel. And I take it that I did something so terrible to Carmel that she's been licking her wounds for that long? Must have been a doozy. Virtual blood ran? Innocents fled in horror? Odd that I have zero idea what you're talking about.... Odd that I wasn't flayed by the list owner for atrocious behavior. Oh, well, guess I'll burn in hell for it, & all will be well.
