yep [In reply to] Can't Post

In Darkstone's two current posts on the Cat poem, no one has answered any questions, but several people have made interesting comments, which all any discussion leader really wants.

So true. Cookies are good.


It's a lonely feeling when they don't come!

That's the main lesson I learned leading a discussion. As a result, I try to post *something* in a discussion. And I often go out of my way to post in one that has few or no responses.

I've learned how nice it is to get a cookie.

******************************************
The audacious proposal stirred his heart. And the stirring became a song, and it mingled with the songs of Gil-galad and Celebrian, and with those of Feanor and Fingon. The song-weaving created a larger song, and then another, until suddenly it was as if a long forgotten memory woke and for one breathtaking moment the Music of the Ainur revealed itself in all glory. He opened his lips to sing and share this song. Then he realized that the others would not understand. Not even Mithrandir given his current state of mind. So he smiled and simply said "A diversion.”
