Carl Bloice is now Honorary Waste of Time [was FWD from Leo Casey]



Note by Hunterbear:

Carl Bloice asks on SocUnity, "can i be a waste of time, too?" He was
referring to the somewhat garbled Leo Casey message to me: "Why do I forget
what an absolute waste of time you are? Go reminisce with Bloice about the
virtues of Uncle Ho, and all the of the "red-baiters" who get worked about
Stalinist mass murders of other leftists."

Dear Carl:

While probably only Leo Casey can confer the title in full, I certainly
can -- And I Do -- as SocUnity Moderator, hereby confer on you, Carl
Bloice, the title of HONORARY WASTE OF TIME.

I'm posting this about since it's a truly HISTORIC WASTE OF TIME.

Remember the fine old version of Inherit the Wind? In that Scopes Trial
depiction, Clarence Darrow [Henry Drummond as played by Spencer Tracy]
objects to the fact that William Jennings Bryan [Matthew Harrison Brady,
played by Frederic March] has been given, by the State of Tennessee, the
title of Colonel. The increasingly beleaguered judge mulls it over, then
makes Darrow/Drummond a "Temporary Honorary Associate Colonel."

Next to Salt of the Earth and Shane, the old Inherit the Wind is a very
favorite film of mine.

I'm very pleased, Carl, to have you as a fellow Waste of Time. Makes Idaho
much less lonely.

In Solidarity - H

In our Gray Hole, the ghosts often dance in the junipers and sage, on the
game trails, in the tributary canyons with the thick red maples, and on the
high windy ridges -- and they dance from within the very essence of our own
inner being. They do this especially when the bright night moon shines down
on the clean white snow that covers the valley and its surroundings. Then
it is as bright as day -- but in an always soft and mysterious and
remembering way. [Hunterbear]
