sometimes it has to do with when people appear contrary to your expectations. that is what is happening to me now in the process of email personalities and names becoming attached to faces. an example of

Cripes - I've got a name. So I'm not real then? Mindfuck man mindfuck... John Cale and Lou Reed once sang a song about faces and names not making any sense to them. Must have been the years of drug abuse. Anyway, they went on to wish that all faces and names were the same, which I don't think would be much of a solution at all. Just imagine the confusion. Fools. I think we are allowed to flame people who aren't on the list. Or perhaps they are on the list. If so, I'm very very sorry John and Lou - I think you're great and I know you were only singing about Andy Warhol really. I bet Blake will catch hell from lurker Don Henley when he reads your post dissing the Eagles. Youn went on to write: this is someone whom i mistakenly thought would be indian with an olive complexion and huge dark eyes and heavy lashes, but my stock of proper English names was incomplete. he turned out to be all fair hair and peaches and cream complexion and extremely innocent looking, which made everything he wrote or that was written about him seem all the more shocking.>> Call me self-centred, but I actually thought Youn was writing about me here until I got to the bit about fair hair. Actually, it's only because I've got an Indian surname that I thought that, I'm not really self-centred at all. I'm great, me. This 'no one knows you're a dog' business - I have to confess to you Youn (Youn Jong?) that despite having exchanged quite a few emails with you, I have no idea what sex you are. You could let me know if you like. You don't have to show me or anything - I'll take your word for it. Archel wrote:

i don't know about jd salinger being a pervert, but i heard a terrible rumour about jimmy saville the other day. he did all this work for charity and kids, and was generally an old sweetie (apparently) but also donated sums of money to a mortuary in return for a half hour visit each week, no questions asked. >>

Which is quite the most distubing thing I've heard in a long time. Next you'll be telling me Johnny Morris was a paedophile. Talking of celebrities with dark underbellies, my friend Dave actually made up a joke once all on his own that I think is very funny (I apologise to international readers who will be unfamiliar with cryptofascist twins of evil Ross and Norris McWhirter - they used to guest on the Record Breakers Show and show off about how they had every world record in the world ever stored away in their big heads) Q: Why did the IRA kill Ross McWhirter? A: He knew too much. Why has no one made a joke about Lawrence Dallaglio being caught in a Honey Trap? You could throw in phrases like 'Fey and vulnerable' somewhere. Once again, I apologise to international readers. Unreservedly. For everything.
