    hey Grunt

    Your name reminds me of a band in Australia with a famous actor as it's lead singer/song writer

    It's called Thirty Odd Feet of Grunts (or, TOFOG) featuring none other but the Gladiator himself, Russell Crowe.

    Just my 2 cents...

    Grunt, Whenever I see your name here I recall a post of yours from September where you described the cold, unnatural embrace from your child-lost to the borg. You went on about how shallow your relationship had become. I'm experiencing the same treatment from my parents. It's like being shot through the heart; only you don't die.
    If only I could learn not to dwell so much on the past. When I read that post I thought back to a time when on any given Saturday morning I'd hear a knock on my screen door. There my Dad would be standing dressed like Eddie Bauer-what a gadget geek(like me). He'd say, "Hey Missy, why don't you give those brushes a rest(artist)and walk down to the lake with me and do some fishin'? I'll even bait the hook for you." I knew it was pointless to say no. He wasn't going to rest until he demonstrated every lure, stink bait, and rubber-neon- glitter-worm he purchased from Bass-Mart or BassWorld or whatever the name of the place is. These are the times and days that I hang onto. These are the memories that I reach for while I'm hugging my "Stepford Parents." There is a line from your post that I copied into my journal, dated September 25th: "It does feel good to shoot an arrow of truth across the net and hope somehow it hits and kills a lie
    somewhere." Good one, Grunt. I guess this sums up the reason why many of us are here. Sorry to drift so far off the subject. I want to let you know I enjoy your posts also. "The few, the proud, the Apostates." It was good seeing you here again.
