A BUNCH OF FIGS, OR THE FIRE AND BRIMSTONE NOTES

Bruce Kimmel Photograph bk's notes

Well, dear readers, I am back in Los Angeles, California and happy to be so. I got a decent night’s sleep, too, so that helped. This was supposed to be my first official day at work, but then Mr. David Wechter reminded me that I don’t have to work on my first official day of work because it is a Jewish holiday, Yom Kippur. Since I’d worked all weekend, that was welcome news. So, I shall just sit at home and contemplate things and rest, and then I shall go off to break the Yom Kippur fast this evening, and then I will have my first official day of work on my second official day.

Did you know that occasionally people will find haineshisway.com through a search engine – they’re searching something and they’ll find us because we’ve mentioned it or it’s perhaps mentioned in the posts for the day. And sometimes they’ll post to whatever entry they find – not knowing that there will be no one to see it unless it’s the current or a very recent entry. I, however, see all posts because I am copied on every post via e-mail. So, this morning I saw that someone had posted something to one of the May notes, specifically Ambrosia Salad. And I thought I’d share the post with you because it amused me on certain levels and I’m most certain it will do the same for you, dear readers. This post was signed Renee, and of course contained no e-mail address. Here is Renee’s post in full: “You guys are a bunch of fags.” Now, we could give Renee the benefit of the doubt and assume he/she made a typo and meant to write “You guys are a bunch of figs.” Yes, we could do that, but we shan’t, although there are times when I’m sure we all feel like a bunch of figs. No, no, not figs – raisins. In any case, whatever we are a bunch of pales in comparison to this type of cowardly hit and run post. I believe that Renee should remove his/her head, which is currently residing in his/her rectal cavity because he/she will feel ever so much better afterwards. I do not like cowardly twits, I do not like hit and run posters and I do not like Renee. I also told you that on Friday, dear reader Craig had posted something about my Nudie Musical announcement on a musical theater board, and someone came in and did something similar there, only regarding me and the announcement. Now, he/she hasn’t been heard from or seen since on that board. Well, what can we learn from this? That perhaps it was someone who feels some ill will? That perhaps it was someone who was feeling a bit of envy? That perhaps it was someone trying to stir up some trouble, but too cowardly to put an e-mail address with their post? And, of course, I would most likely have some thoughts as to who might do such a thing, as I’m sure you might. So, to the Renees of the world, and the people who let their ill will overtake their lives – today is Yom Kippur – atone for your sins, my children, because if you don’t you will surely go to Hell and I’ve been told that Hell is especially hard on intolerant he/shes like Renee and very intolerant of people who let their ill will take over their lives. Turn over a new leaf this very day or you shall be on the road to ruin. I believe in miracles and I believe you can do it, my children. The person who, this very weekend, told me I had an incredibly strong and lovely aura also told me there was a very envious and jealous person or concern trying to interfere with my life. To whoever that might be I say repent, see the error of your ways or you will be on a spiral downward heading to Hell, where you will be forced to play Free Cell all day and night and never win.

What am I, Kathryn Kuhlman all of a sudden? That entire paragraph had a lot of fire and brimstone in it. Well, woe to the he/she who calls Hainsies/Kimlets a bunch of fags, a bunch of figs or a bunch of anything else. And woe to the people who try to mess with me because they are letting their ill will take over their lives.

My goodness, I’m exhausted from all the fire and brimstone, aren’t you? Perhaps we should all just click on the Unseemly Button below because I believe in miracles and I believe if we all click on the Unseemly Button below we will be transported to a new plane.

You see, we have all been taken to a brand new plane. I’m feeling very spiritual today, and I hand it all to Renee, the he/she. If it weren’t for Renee and his/her intolerant obnoxious post, I would just be breezin’ along with the breeze, notes-wise, rather than preachin’ the old fire and brimstone.

Yesterday, in our posts, it came to light that there was a certain posting malaise going on. Well, go back to yesterday’s notes and read my response – don’t be overtaken by a posting malaise. Even if you don’t feel like posting or don’t have anything to say, do so anyway, because you’ll feel better, I promise. There are days I really think “I don’t want to write these here notes today” but then I do them anyway and it always makes me feel better because we, we are family and I know that you loyal Hainsies/Kimlets will be reading it and responding to it however you so choose. So, post for life. Feel good. Let’s have no malaise here at haineshisway.com. We can have posting mayonnaise here at haineshisway.com but not posting malaise.

Well, dear readers, I must take the day, I must do the things I do, I must contemplate things, and then I must break the Yom Kippur fast. Perhaps I shall also break the Yom Kippur slow, just for the heck of it. Don’t forget, Donald has a brand spanking new radio show up, so give a listen. Today’s topic of discussion (and, of course, feel free to discuss any old thing you’d like to as well): I’m sure many of you frequent either Usenet newsgroups or chat boards – what do you think of them and what do you feel about the Renees and the people who do nothing but try to cause trouble on those newsgroups and boards? As a side dish – have you ever, as a result of being on a newsgroup or chat board, met someone new and become good friends with them? As a further side dish – what is the best thing that has ever happened to you as a direct result of the Internet? Now, that is a lot of topics to discuss, so post away, my pretties.
