Master 2770 Central Kansas | Subject: RE: Yanti & Salty MAD MANATEES Part 2 -- Full Pod TriAya - 2012-05-25 12:24 PM I'm not sure why, but all week I have been missing a friend of mine terribly. I think it was because he (over and above everyone else) always made a huge deal out of my birthdays, and this is the first birthday I've had without him He was always a tremendous support for me regarding issues with my parents, since he'd been through the same with his. And was simply just a very wise, insanely funny soul who kind of adopted me when I was a lost cause. If you've ever watched TV, you've seen him. He was one of Hollywood's best-known bit-part and character actors. I called him Fudgie and Prime Piglet and he thought melon presses were the second-most wonderful thing in the world. The first most wonderful thing, he thought, and him alone (perhaps another reason I was so charmed by him) was my voice. We had coffee together every Monday evening and he would cajole me into reading to him every time possible. He would invite his friends and make me read to them. He would grab random strangers to join us and make me read to him. Coming from him, of all people, of course I was extremely flattered. I think there was just something in the vibration of my voice that matched one of his soul strings. I think he's having a party up there somewhere, telling the most awful and slightly (who am I kidding, heavily) offensive jokes ever, and rescuing lost piglets in the afterlife who never did quite find their way in this world. This was one of his last messages to me, to give you an idea of how irreverent he was ... about everything ... including his imminent passing. Aww. Porcinity ! Living in high sty ! Oink if you love Yanti ! I have pictures with him but they're all on my old computer in Bali.
And he's from Wichita, so he must be amazing. :-) I'm sorry you're missing your friend. (And now, I wish I could hear you read. I'm a sucker for great voices.) |
... I mean, he lived in LA so he wasn't HERE for my last two birthdays, but he sure made a big deal of it online and on the phone anyway.

Master 2770 Central Kansas | Subject: RE: Yanti & Salty MAD MANATEES Part 2 -- Full Pod melbo55 - 2012-05-25 2:06 PM I thoroughly (and enviously) enjoy watching good runners run with their nice body positioning, gentle footfall and graceful stride and not looking and sounding and breathing like an elephant racing through the savanah. It truly is a thing of beauty! Have you been spying on me??? I know what you mean though, I love watching graceful runners run. It is one of the most beautiful things in the word. Of course, I feel similarly about swift swimmers, and smooth cyclists. Edited by KansasMom 2012-05-25 3:23 PM |

Elite 4435 | Subject: RE: Yanti & Salty MAD MANATEES Part 2 -- Full Pod Sorry you're missing your friend Yanti....that's so sad. Talking of sad, spent most of the day in tears - just emotional for no real reason! Feel better for a good cry though. Now got a cough - grrr, got Monday off so may just go to dr make sure there isn't any infection get some antibiotics if necessary. I ran a half marathon with a cough once, threw up the whole 21km, not fun at all. |
