The Symposium Returns
The Symposium Returns The Virtual Symposium Returns Lets Pick A Topic We’re baaaaack! General Douglas MacArthur famously said “I shall return” when he abandoned his troops in the Philippines. humorlife said nothing of the kind. He just left without a word. Probably not by submarine in the dead of night, but still….To his credit, he came back a hell of a lot sooner that Dugout Doug did, and he didn’t make a movie of himself doing it. Wading through the surf as if he were some conquering hero. “Virtue vindicated!” Should humorlife make such a movie, I’d like to suggest he do it with more élan than MacArthur and make said return a la Bo Derek in the movie “Ten”, crashing through the surf semi nude, with dreadlocks. Even “From Here to Eternity” would work better as a model than MacArthur’s film. But I insist on semi nude with dreadlocks. Indeed, the Virtual Symposium has returned. This will be the twenty first. The topics to be voted on are chocolate, surrealism, cats, teachers and as always, if you absolutely MUST vote for a losing third party candidate, you can write in a topic of your choice. So write in Jill Stein. She’s a great candidate but she ain’t gonna win. And you can go down in history as having voted on principle before being beaten up by fascist thugs in the street like a stray or a minority. It got a little heavy in here, didn’t it? How quickly things can turn! But there IS a point. The Symposia are a community effort. It’s a time for us to express ourselves as individuals who are at the same time members of a larger group. In this case it’s a group of disgruntled and oversexed perverts who are seeking like minded intransigent and sexually obsessed misfits with whom to make the beast with two backs. We are all of us unique, and at the same time we’re all very much alike. The Symposia are an opportunity to come together as a group and express ourselves as distinct members of a distinct tribe. I’ve stressed this over and over in promoting the Symposia. You can’t say it too much- we’re all in this together. The Symposia aren’t exclusive- they’re inclusive. We all belong. These blogs are what we make of them, and the Symposia make us better. They lift us up. We listen to each other and exercise our own voices. It’s chaotic and even discordant and it’s music to my ears. The aggregate is healing and unifying. Visit The Virtual Symposium Returns Lets Pick A Topic in humorlife’s blog and vote for a topic. The details of how to participate are there. It’s easy! Just write a post and submit it on or about midnight Sunday August 7. Send a link to humorlife, or simply let him know that you’ve posted. He’ll add your post to a list of contributors to be found in his blog. You can post in any format you like- prose, poem, photo, song or dance. You can interpret the topic as broadly as you choose. But do compose an entry. This is the best community building enterprise the blogs could ask for. It brings us together. Become a member now and get a free tote bag. |

Interesting topics. My instant leanings were for cats, but the polls show that it might not fare well. I almost cast a tie-breaker but it would still be behind the leader. .. I have different takes on all of these. .. .. Will be watching for campaigns. Read my diary Journal of a Taxi Driver for taxi stories and pictures of flowers and trees.

That's it, you fucking rummy? You make one comment to put your post on the board and all you can say is "Comment"? You lame motherfucker! By all means, pour another drink and pass out in the gutter. If you've seen "Little Shop of Horrors", you'll remember that "The Guttter" is the club where Audrey worked where she met Orin Scrivello. So there.

They are good topics. But I'm not making it up- as soon as I saw teachers as a topic I thought of my French teacher Elinor and her gorgeous legs. And I started remembering other sexy teachers. Read my diary Journal of a Taxi Driver for taxi stories and pictures of flowers and trees.

I had a few good looking teachers, but never really had a crush on any. .. I especially remember my first male teacher and my first black teacher. .. Both of my parents also started their careers as teachers, so I would be inclined to have a very personal take on that topic. Become a member now and get a free tote bag.

I had crushes on a number of my teachers. I aspired to teach myself. It's probably just as well that I never did. Read my diary Journal of a Taxi Driver for taxi stories and pictures of flowers and trees.
