October 31 The MonasteryDear Friends; I am not so very happy. I followed the advice of my dear friend Elisa (http://readingsbyelisa.spaces.live.com/) and have hidden myself in a far-far-away monastery. The journey was long, v-e-r-y uncomfortable and impossible to remember.
The monks welcomed me with open arms. Too late I heard that their old cook, Brother Gordon, had died a couple of weeks ago and everyone was starving.
The first two days were not too bad but now, one week later I WANT TO GO HOME. My bed is too hard, NO TV, NO BEER and I am peeling millions of potatoes day by day. Each morning at dawn (!!!) Brother Donald (a cock!) is waking me up by making unbelievable, ultrasonic, Dolby Surround Sounds; I am going to slaughter this ugly, fat fellow!
How can I escape? The main doors are locked and a have no transportation to the civilized world! Have to go now, Father Bill is coming and I am secretly using his new PC (an Atari 1040STf)! Kisses, October 28 HalloweenFriends, I am in Deep, Deep Trouble. Last night someone knocked on my door. I opened and almost got an heart-attack. Some ugly weird fellow was standing on my door step making funny noises. In a reflex I knocked him down.
Still shocked I heard a woman scream, it was my sister in law Muriel, who had been hiding behind the bushes in my garden. She dropped a big cake and run to the unconscious man lying on my porch with a broken jaw three missing teeth and a strange nose bleeding like Vesuvius. It was Averell, my Dear Eldest brother Av, the Cook, the Innocent One. I called an ambulance and ate the cake alone ashamed but hungry.
October 26 Crabby Old ManMany Thanks to My Friend Theresa on whose web site (http://babytreese.spaces.live.com) I found this wonderful poem: What do you see nurses? ...What do you see? Who dribbles his food.......and makes no reply. Who, resisting or not...........lets you do as you will, I'll tell you who I am........ As I sit here so still, A young boy of Sixteen with wings on his feet At Twenty-Five, now......... I have young of my own. At forty, my young sons...have grown and are gone, Dark days are upon me.............. My wife is now dead. I'm now an old man.........and nature is cruel. But inside this old carcass...... A young guy still dwells, I think of the years...all too few......gone too fast.
Kisses to all of You ! October 24 One Picture Says More Than 1000 WordsDear Friends, this morning I visited a website (forgot the URL, really sorry folks but it was great!) that made me laugh the whole day. Please look at the following pictures:
Kisses to all of You, October 23 My Chinese HeroesDear Friends, Sometimes you find such wonderful news between all these articles about war, death and other misery. My deepest regards go to the happy couple Pan & Chen, my Chinese Heroes!
BEIJING - Call it a November-December romance. A 106-year-old man and an 81-year-old woman were married in a city in southeastern China, a state news agency reported on Saturday. Pan Xiting met his bride Chen Adi eight years ago, and she has taken care of him since then, the Xinhua News Agency reported. Their former spouses died years ago. “Now, we are a family and we will never separate from each other until death,” Pan was quoted as saying after the civil ceremony Friday in the port city of Wenzhou. There was a small hiccup during the process of arranging the latest nuptials: “We were told that we needed to show our residence cards to get married, but Chen’s has been lost for a long time,” Pan said. Local officials relented after getting to know the couple’s story. “We believe that Madam Chen means more than a companion to Mr. Pan and we hope they will have a happy married life,” said Zheng Guangliang, deputy director of the Lucheng District civil affairs bureau.
