There's either of
two possible scenarios going on with her/him/it. One is patent
stoopidity.

Or two, the person is clinically delusional and genuinely
_does_ believe her alien-hood.

What would a human spouse do to someone who says this about their mate?

While I try very hard to be a law-abiding citizen of the galaxy, I think you
should know that, unlike Darla, I am Not a vegetarian.

Darla is indisposed for a time.

Yeah, I'll bet. Probably zonked on her thorazine. oc

I dunno, in some parts of the world, maybe (insert horror music here) *EAT
THEM*!!!!?!?!?!?!?! (Daaah-dumm-DAAAAAHHHHH!!!!!) Better yet, maybe thank
them for pointing out their spouse's delusions.

Neither am I. Let's do lunch sometime.

Hope it's nothing serious.

Live long and prosper. (Does anyone know of an emoticon for a clown honking
a horn?) *HONK-HONK*

Miss Thaing whimpered,

To which 'Doug' responded,

...maybe thank them for pointing out

Exactly. It's called Tough Love.

Pay no attention to my mate, Bill.

Recently having a young one has Pros Pere on a bit of an hormonal edge.

I explained again how your species loves to Play, even in the most serious
of contexts, and even in the most fearsome of circumstances.

This is one keystone of your ability to survive.

You did not like my mathless cause of gravity, did you?

I told you that you would not.

You are too close to your flow theory.

The flow theory has fatal flaws, you know this, and yet you persist.

And you say that I need meds.

Regain your mental Youth, your open mind, Bill Sheppard.

You are going to need it.

My, persistent, aren't we? My autoranging ding-a-ling detector is going
off scale (!). oc

I can not believe how much fun this Darla has provided my classes.
Just as that wonderful anonymous ReMailer, Min, and his antics,
sometimes I print out the babbling of him AND ALSO this Darla creature
and take it in to share with my students.
You should hear them laughing about these characters...
At least they are good for some cheap entertainment.
Oh yes, you should hear the students performing a sort of Reader's
Theater by cobbling together several of the "speeches" of this Darla
creature.
So far we've actually had teachers and other students walking by stop
and listen and join in the laughter.

Its all good. 8`) What ages are your students? The 'Reader's Theater' idea
is a hoot. I'll bet your classes appreciate you!

Painius, this is all your fault. G oc

Geez! I go away for a few days and come back and see
this thread. Why's everbody always pickin' on me? g

happy days and...
starry starry nights!

Tender is my love for thee
Oh star so close at hand,
Warming those so dear to me
As we lay on the sand...

It's so easy to believe
In all this beachin' fun,
That some day you and i will be--
Altogether one.
