Robin: That's an unfair dig, Curtis. I think I never thought of applying it to *that* context--but, now that you bring it up, I sort of wish I had. A little late in the game now, I suppose. The universe computing through my Unity Consciousness didn't really make that one of its priorities. But I am wondering: at 68, do you think it would work for me? Now I realize I have stepped out of my usual mode of robin singing here, but I think there still is enough lust in there to want to give this a try. Ladies: be warned. "20 somethings": God, that would be nice, Curtis! No, the power surge you get in enlightenment, that more or less trumps everything else. But now that I have given up the field of all possibilities, I am thinking retrospectively of *that* possibility. And I think I blew it, Curtis. I think I blew it. Sorry, all your gals *who could have been*. I knew you'd find some way to get under my skin, Curtis. Faces and eros: There has to be someone behind this, don't you think?
