About Me

Describe Yourself:

I'm an 18 year old hellion in an 81 year old body. I have just published my eighth book, called "LIFE, DEATH AND OTHER TRIVIA, Outrageous Observations of a Wicked Old Broad". My earlier works were controversial, but made the bestsellers lists in the US and UK and kept me alive for a lot of years. I spent eight years going around the world, living by my wits and the occasional royalty check. I've had more than 200 addresses, two husbands, two children, four grandchildren and a new great grandson. At 82, I can truthfully say "been there, done that" about virtually everything and everyplace.
On Gather, I'm Looking For ...:

a good debate on my somewhat unconventional views on practically everything. And lots of readers of my newest book.

I have updated my status as per your command. I'll leave it as such until Gather gets its cranial cavity out of its anal cavity. Which means I never have to come up with anything clever... ever again.

By the by, Stephanie will not be "peeing [my] pants," for more than "logistical reasons." I have rules about who pees my pants.

It's true. Besides, "banality" wanted some spares. I felt good about the donation.

I see the wanton pinging of Stephanie and I recognize the whole conundrum of both "absence making the heart grow fonder," and "out of sight -- out of mind."

Yippee! Love your status and religious preference. I'm so honored and excited I could pee Joy's pants! (But won't for logistical reasons).

Thank Charles, you do indeed appear in my friends list...or more acurately, in my "can't miss" list. Shhh...don't tell the others, they may get jealous.

There should be a decent way to play "Ping" off of "Begin the Beguine," but I ain't coming up with it...

Not my most involved work, but it needed to be told from the mountain:
