Hi all of you,

I haven't been to babble even on a marginal basis for a few years now. Just thought of dropping in and seeing if it had picked up.

On 'admin, I found a long and debilitating thread between Lou and SLS. Unreadable, of course-- I can't imagine why anyone would put his head into Lou's particularly malign maw-- Lou's prose alone immediately makes my brain wince-- the aroma is just so overwhelming

other than that babble seems to have fallen into a strange calm, with one or two people still carrying on.

Maybe the internet has mesmerized all of us, and created distractions so various and amusing as to persuade us we have no need to deal wiht life or at least our life problems.

At least Phillipa's not here to intone yet again that babble is dying. that also drove me batty-- she seemed so happy to rehearse that refrain.

I do miss that brief season when it was lively though. I was thinking a few days ago of the time when the chat line was often populated and we used to try to meet as a ragtag group. It was fun.

So it was a surprise to come upon a few familiar voices. I guess all of you have been overlapped with me a bit-- but maybe we never got to know one another well-- introductions being sparse

Im still painting-- and taking a few classes downtown to improve my technique-- and finally getting valuable and meaningful critiques. That it such a relief-- such an amazing relief, I should say-- I almost feel part of the human race.

My new obsessions are Lovis Corinth and Tiepolo--

I hope you are all well-- really-- and Alex is on her way to whichever path she's chosen, Dinsh is productive and not over-burdened with stress and self-reproach. I wonder about so many others though.

I'm still too demanding of others and not demanding enough of myself-- but I hope becoming more accepting of difference and step by step a bit sterner in regard to my own lacks and flaws.
