Would that be part of a plot?

    I've lost the plot re. that Prodigal Son. He must have gone on holiday, or as it says, still 'spending his substance in riotous living'. I've too sheltered a life to know about that. lol.

  • Doggerel Dave

    I'd like to plot the number of moves you've made to avoid the Prodigal Son, orchi.
    I think you privately messaged Management and asked them to throw obstacles in my way in order to save you from the Prodigal Son.

  • sorenbarrett

    Now Dave here is one from you close to cryptic and symbolism but short. Well said my friend I think I'm part of the plot.

    • Doggerel Dave

      You are probably with the strength then, Soren.

      "Poeming?" Sounds nasty in a way.

      • Doggerel Dave

        And? Care to elaborate, Jerry. Couldn't find 'poeming' until I noticed it in Notice of Absence, which appears with all my poems, and has done for some time.
        Anything to add to the shortie beneath?

        • Jerry Reynolds

          I couldn't either. But the word reminded me of something I would not my Mom to catch me doing.

          What are you doing in there?
          Poeming–
          Get your butterbean ass out here boy
          Poeming– I can cure you of that.

          Good write, Dave. So you.
          The red banner seems to be in your profile see if you can edit it from there. The dotted line around the box sometimes denotes an edit glitch.

          • Doggerel Dave

            No glitch, Jerry - I put it there in its entirety. And there it will stay until I must inevitably close down. In which case (can't be any guarantees) if I have time, I'll substitute with an unambiguous farewell.

            Technology can drive me crazy...actually, it's a short putt. lol

            • Doggerel Dave

              Definitely on your side here. Glad you are on mine.

              Everything changes in time and we just have to deal with it as we have done for very many years Dave.

              • Doggerel Dave

                Could you define 'deal with it' in this context for me Andy?
                Shall I come to you for workarounds?

              • Neville



                I know where you are coming from and I'm with you all the way sir Dog ..

                • Doggerel Dave

                  Yeh? Hows your navigation round or through the obstacles, Neville?

                  • Neville



                    I seem to be managing now but felt somewhat bamboozled for a micro-second or two
