While I sometimes appreciate his level tone and reasonably civilized manner I find I just can't figure out the static and bloodless manner in which he describes and analyzes things. If his posts are anything like he is in person then he resembles wallpaper more than a living, breathing creature. This post will probably relegate me to the fluff folder in the future, I'm afraid. And I so liked being the sole poster in the "Canada" file. No Ann, you will remain in the Canada folder. Ever see the 1956 movie Invasion of the Body Snatchers, where duplicates of people, soulless and robotic , produced in strange, large, peapod-like incubators, replace the cast of characters one by one. The pod people are in bliss all the time, but no emotion. I am one of those. Beware of finding one of these pods on your property. 'As each pod reaches full development, it assimilates the physical characteristics, memories, and personalities of each sleeping person placed near it; these duplicates are devoid of all human emotion.' http://basementrejects.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/06/invasion-of-the-body-snatchers-1956-pods-600x300.jpg http://basementrejects.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/06/invasion-of-the-body-snatchers-1956-pods-600x300.jpg http://basementrejects.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/06/invasion-of-the-body-snatchers-1956-pods-600x300.jpg http://basementrejects.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/06/invasion-of-the-body-snatchers-1956-pods-600x300.jpg View on basementrejects.com http://basementrejects.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/06/invasion-of-the-body-snatchers-1956-pods-600x300.jpg Preview by Yahoo Sleep well. HA, HA. Thanks Xeno, you have pulled on your deepest resources for humor and creativity here. I really appreciate it. And believe you me, I am so thankful I can remain in the "Canada" folder for a while longer, you are indeed generous, not to mention benevolent - it means a lot. And now I feel bad having called you "wallpaper". After this post I do believe you are more like a fern, a slow-waving harmless fern. Show me more, what else can you be? Oh, and yes, I have seen two versions of "The Body Snatchers". I love the B and W version but the later one isn't too bad either. Superbly creepy in lots of ways. I love B grade horror movies, especially B&W.
