Being stuck on yourself is a bad thing? Oh. I’d hate to have to break up with me. I’ve been together for so many years.

I love the cinnamon bun photo. I’d like to see this photo show up as a drawing in the background of a future DTWOF episode. I imagine Sidney noshing in the background while a serious debate takes place in the foreground.

I love this blog. I’ve been reading DTWOF since 1992 – what is that 15 years? I lost all my books in a breakup but hope to buy them all again once I get through college.

Oh, thanks Maggie, I didn’t see that post. I’ve been trying to overcome my addiciton to this blog because I was feeling like such an elderly groupie, hoping Alison would notice me and then we’d meet and I’d become her best friend, ever. Anyway, all the discussion about prying into her private life was making me self conscious. But, as you can see, my addiction got the better of me and I started catching up on the blog this morning. Thanks for filling in the missing information.

I agree with you about LOL~I have never once laughed at anything that was marked that way.

Hey, Virginia — first of all, I’d prefer it if I never again in my life saw LOL. Ginjoint, for example, finds amazing ways of conveying humorous responses, even with IM abbreviations, that avoid the ubiquitous cliche of LOL. (Said with a grin, just so you don’t think I’m being totally snotty.)

But — facetious is one thing. Certainly we can be extremely silly here, talk piffle as I think Silvio put it. And, at times, tease each other, tease Alison, make fun of ourselves. But there was a mean tone to that particular post which came through, and add that to the use of “No Name”, and it was jarring. I’d be willing to reconsider my judgment if this same poster had not returned later, getting no satisfying response, and gotten seriously mean in a subsequent post — one which Alison has deleted, with my thanks. Perhaps you didn’t see the second post.

Why did everyone assume that No Name was serious? Surely someone can make a facetious remark and have it understood as such without having to append “LOL.”

Some typos are more revealing than others, eh?

That story (Kathy Power) passed me by over here at the time, reminds me of Astrid Proll ex RedArmyFraction in Germany, who lived in the london dyke world for several (?) years in the 70s. She got found, served out her sentence, and is now a respectable picture editor. But Maggie I have had my historic mental pictures revised by the idea of the Black Panters…

Yeah, Aunt Soozie, I wondered that too. Or “fire-bombing”. We’ll see if that goes through.

I’m not Alison but I am Kathy Power.

I never worry about getting my lesbian card revoked — guess I’m not attached to mine. But, oh, girls, how I’ve imagined the lesbian posse riding up out front. I can hear the squeak of leather in their saddles, the jingle of spurs, and the rustle of a rope. Must be my Texan heritage.
