We've got zombies down here too
dk, they walk into ya
Their eyes fixed down, they feed on phones
No way I'll say good onya

I hate this bloody practice
I want 'hello' on passing
And not this shitty zombie stuff
It's shit, yes, I am cussing

Hello shit.....wazzat?
Oh, you're awake?
Wot?......

Lisa- it seems John is having trouble getting production line workers. They want more take-home pay. Seems he won't more pay than he's offering to make these completely-unknown-never-seen-before piss-stain-stoppers. Keep at it John.

Lisa- I'm sure John has a kind heart. I'm sure he will send the used prototype to tide you over till Christmas, gratis. Free delivery and all. I'm sure it will have passed all the safety tests and still be well within its use by date.

That's not you I can hear pissing with laughter down the wire is it?

No, I think it's me.....?

You’re onto something there, Kev. I’ll see what I’ve got in stock.
Lisa/Don I have a small production delay. Problems with the support (see above). I could send the used and tested prototype I have been using since Tuesday..

It's a good idea John, but I just can't see how it will stay in position. Now if someone were to invent a pair of straps to support it. He could call such straps carabiner-braces.

That is great Lisa. I have been trying to do the same in a sense. More trying myself though with my own limited musical talent. It just feels sometimes though that a particular poem just wants to be sung. If you do I hope you post a soundfile.

Lisa - you are getting fussy now. You know boys wear blue and not pink. Heard a whisper that J's having trouble organizing Slash transport across the pond. Pilots (I've heard) are pissing themselves laughing on takeoff. Only a whisper though. I'm sure John is taking the matter in hand. You're gonna have to hang tight while he sorts this laughing policeman, no pilot problem out.....jeez, he does have problems. All self-inflicted though Lisa. Poor boy.....

Thank God, Graham. I thought I'd upset the sisterhood. Luckily, it's not commercial as such as I haven't made any sales as yet.
Don - thanks for your further thoughts. I shall certainly look into that.
Lisa - I plan to cut them out of the McDonald tartan material I have on my deckchair.

Ray, you sound rather Dickensian in this. What does a lack of awareness of what's going on down there reveal about the character or mind-set of a person? That could be an essay title.

So, you think the illegal annexation of Indian controlled Kashmir is a good thing? Surprising, given that so few Kashmiri voices have been heard. But I suppose that the cutting off of all internet, phone and media access PRIOR to the announcement of this move is a good thing. I suppose integration into the larger Indian society is best done with curfews, lockdowns, checkpoints and thousands of troops. Quite an open-armed welcome to India. Just saying. I'll take my comments off the air.

Adam, thank you for commenting on my poems. I particularly enjoyed Olympic Mountains as it had that impressionist flavour, a genre of poetry I am very drawn to. Keep writing Adam as your work has a special quality, which over time, will achieve your own personal brand of poetry. I look forward to observing your progress.

Thanks Alexandra (Albatross) Time moves on a pace from modern experiences - what once was a not so unusual everyday experience in the wider scheme of things (deaths at sea) - now forms a rather different kind of scenario indeed, especially as there is no merchant service as once was so familiar to us. Like the Smithsonian Institute in the USA discovered - our past history and artefacts of times past - help us look back and see anew what it was that everyday folk did for a living - in that looking back the events seem more golden in the re-telling. I was there and still see the faces from earlier days loom up at me from time to time - the good bits and the less good. If any of that makes any sense at all. Bestest. P.
