Ha ha, Riette! I was being facetious. Bobby Goldsboro was a teen idol in the early 70's, along the lines of Donny Osmond, or the Partridge family. They used to include his singles on the back of Post cereal boxes; we'd cut them out and play them them on our turntable (we called it a record player back then). Can anyone remember any of his songs? I seem to remember one about the sun.

Oh, yesterday Sonja and I were complaining over this on the phone, and about wrinkles and the likes. I was saying how I get these nasty bags under the eyes when I don't sleep - which I never used to. And she said: 'You think THAT's bad? I have so many wrinkles around my eyes that, after I've cried, I have to wipe my ar$e!'
I was in stitches!

Not at all, Terry!!! Don't let a photo lie to you about my appearance, because then you'll laugh your butt off when you see the video. I am BIG TIME ugly, not because I'm modest, or have a bad self image, but because I am. I've NEVER met a person who thought I looked younger than I am . . . . that's because I don't. Absolutely not! I spent the first 18 years of my life in a blazing desert sun, and so I have those typical ugly freckles that white African people always have. And the wrinkles. And bags
under my eyes, because I sleep so little. Baah!
Europeans, I find, all look VERY young though. My husband looks at least 15 years younger than he is.
°sigh°
If I were vain, than would pi$$ me off.

The topic with my name that some INNOCENT created in Babes.
The face looks fairly in place when I'm not talking - but boy, when that mouth opens, it's NIGHT time! I'm one of those people whose right and left side of the face are so far from being a mirror image of each other, it's almost embarrassing - you know, when I open my mouth to talk, you'd think I'd suffered a stroke at some point! Not nice.

Oh, don't worry about that - I know what you look like anyway, since we're twins. I think our faces are the last thing in the world we should give a damn about. I've never thought of people as ugly or pretty just from looking at their faces, so I assume that that is true of them too. I wouldn't want to be beautiful, because I don't know how that would affect one's personality - and mine is awful enough as it is!!!! Many beautiful people are so over aware of the way they look that it makes them butt u
ly. Being beautiful is just so temporary - I mean, in 50 years' time Pamela is going to be as unpretty as myself, I HOPE!!! - that one can't really afford to make a big issue out of it.

I'd love to see pics of people you see as attractive Ree-head. Kinds reminds me of that Twilight Zone where they remove the bandages off this woman who has just had facial surgery and they look so afraid and disgusted but the camera pans in and she is beautiful, simply gorgeous, by human standards. When the camera pans out and the doctors and nurses remove their masks, you see that 'normal' for them is lizardlike features...
Anyway Ree-head, I think the picture reveals a very pretty you.

That's kind, Stacey.
And ha-ha!!!
My best friend, Gillian, is someone I find truly beautiful. I was quite surprised and very angry when my husband met her for the first time, and said to me afterwards: 'She's nice, but God she's ugly.'
She might be - I don't know. We've been best friends for four years now, and still find new things to admire about her all the time. She has every good quality one can possibly imagine in another person - but in a degree of UTTERness. Utterly intelligent, kind, sensible, yet crazy, great to be with, creative, emotional, passionate, open, honest, sweet, a good listener AND advisor, easy to talk to, easy to be silent with - oh, I could go on and on. And because of all these qualities, I find her green an
brown eyes just beautiful with all the things going on in there, I find her nose beautiful when she laughs and it sort of crinkles up like that, and I find her smile gorgeous, I love to look at her quick hands when she helps me bake my daughters' birthday cakes. If I were lesbian, she is just the kind of woman I'd fall in love with emotionally as well as physically.

that is so sweet about your friend gillian. i think you see beauty the way it
was meant to be, without other's standards...that's refreshing. i know what you
mean about finding other people beautiful and not having anyone agree with you!
and no matter what happens, these people will always remain beautiful to you.
and they'll never know why. i can't find a reason why my husband thinks i'm
pretty. i can find every reason why he shouldn't. i'm glad not to be admired
for looks, you know? well, if we're twins, reehead, it must be fraternal! haha!!

Pemberley doesn't need us. They have a thriving community on their own. What could we offer them that they don't already have?
Also, I think it would be impossible to try to break in on their territory. While I have always wished we could do more discussion of JA, I don't see that happening. They have healthy, active discussions with a large number of participants and lurkers, at best ours would be a pale shadow. Why would anyone look for somewhere else to discuss JA, when they have the RoP?

Better phrased: what could we offer that neither we or the RoP is offering now? I've been thinking about that for years. Still don't have any ideas.
