For Omie Omie said he would marry me so I hereby consumate our interneted union with these two songs, very near and quite dear.

Bascom Lamar Lumsford - Little Turtle Dove

Henry Thomas - Bob Mckinnley (aka one of the best songs EVER)

Does this mean we call him mr.pants now?

That Henry Thomas song is excellent. I haven't heard him before. I downloaded another song from the Internet Archive, but haven't listened to it yet.

I love Basom Lamar, but I think that link is broken.

Specklet, you can call me whatever seems fitting (get it-pants-fitting?). I'm not going to change all of my internet account names until I actually meet mrs. pants, as fickle as that might be.

Whoa, Check out Mister Traditional. Do you sacrifice a bullock to the sun god every spring as well, fuddy dudderooo?

I'd change for you, mrs.pants, whether we ever meet or not.

Nice dano, way to try to muscle in.

confidential to mrs. pants: You know I love you, I've just been burned before (and probably presently). Also, I'd really like to see the FOC drawings. Any chance you'd post them.

Oh geese and flounder!

so when are you flying to Chicago? we get snow, pretty pretty snow.

I make curry, spicy spicy curry.

ps. i think people like me better on the internets.

Congratulations to the happy couple. I recently came back from a most hectic wedding (for friends in the Northwest). I think you two did the right thing with a quick 'net nuptial. FYI, I hear you can be divorced for a $500 dollar donation to Creative Commons.

Omie - we'll be related! I'm a descendant of Bascom Lamar (really!)

posted by grateful 21 October | 15:30

man my folks are both orphans so we're not related to anyone...

...or you could claim that you're related to everyone. And yeah, we've been able to trace our tree back to Bascom, although I've never actually heard his music :-(

grateful, really, that's cool. Did you get my email about a bike for you? I sent it to the address listed at MeFi.

omiewise - I got your email - I'll reply to it soon...

posted by grateful 21 October | 15:59

hey omie, I'll post the Flannery O'Connor drawings once I perfect or semi-perfect them. Which could take quite awhile...

thus far on the list are:
1. A Good Man Is Hard To Find
2. The Enduring Chill
3. A View of The Woods

and more....so many more to do right....yikes.
