I was a little disconcerted by the early movie reviews, as I'd never seen any of those fabulously trashy/tacky/stoopid flicks, and am still sadly behind on most of modern film and culture. <br /><br />But, like kelp, barnacles and bacteria, Scott grew on me, and then I got to meet Mary, and thus the Wo'C family was complete. Well, that, and really bad jokes about the dumpster out behind Chuck E. Cheese. I'm so glad that Skippy decided to censor me, of I might never have found this place, which is light-years ahead of every other librul blog, at least in bitchily-biting humor, bizarre references, and gut-laugh quotient.<br /><br />AND there's the no-small-fact item about S.Z. inspiring me to become the unofficial "crazy cat lady" <i>(and no, Le Petit Fromage, you will never be forgotten forgiven for the ACTION FIGURE!!!)</i> of 2.5 parishes, having such LOVERLY adventures with 6-pound demon-spawn who always wanted to remove my extremities with extreme prejudice. Yeah, I miss it, though my spine certainly doesn't, but without a scion of animal-activist damned-near-martyrdom <i>(I can only imagine how many different species of rescued critters are currently inhabiting her secret CIA-designed bunker today...)</i> like Sheri, I might never have gotten off of my ass to help the local clan of ferals @ L'Hotel des Fouquetards and thus get sucked-into the whole Cat Haven thing. To this day, Sheri remains my heroine and one of my favorite-ever writers. Scott, sorta the little-brother-I-never-wanted, and Mary, the saint who puts up with him, truly are part of my home-made "family" of online nutjobs who are kind enough to include ME in their world, and for that, I will always be eternally grateful.<br /><br />Cheesy, I know, but I get sentimental about some shit, so fucking sue me. You 3 <i>(and of course, your feline overlords --- does that make Riley the leader of The New Panther Party?)</i> have changed my life for the better, and that kind of a gift is never forgotten. Plus, y'all, Mentis, RenB, Mags/Sitara, and other commenters here are amongst the very few beings on earth who can make me laugh when I wanna vacate the planet. So while I've missed a helluva lot of the wunnerfulness that is Wo'C, I feel damned privileged to have been here for the parts that I have been lucky enough to witness. Shutting up now.Anntichrist S.
