TIMEs have changed...magazines that once upon a TIME would cost 20 cents...now need $ 15 postage to arrive in Greece! Ah, but I am enchanted!

Paging through another world...of typewriters (what are those?)

And "Formula One"at the Indie that go only 126 MPH?

I'm enchanted with David. I mean I REALLY, really, really am enchanted with David (well, maybe more with the 1951!!! TIME he sent?)

think of all the poems, songs, works of art that never would have been created had they had access to antidepressants. David, I wish I'd kept a copy of that genius piece you made in response to the endless asemic debate. 

KDJ fused with her machine is a very odd and disturbing image. I bet it's hell to keep up with KDJ in a chat  typing 100wpm

from Ted Hughes wikipedia site:

On 25 March 1969, six years after Plath's suicide by asphyxiation from a gas stove, Assia Wevill committed suicide in the same way. Wevill also killed her child, Alexandra Tatiana Elise (nicknamed Shura), the four-year-old daughter of Hughes, born on 3 March 1965. Their deaths led to (apparently unsupported) claims that Hughes had been abusive to both Plath and Wevill.[

So is it true? Never heard that, but let's not marry a guy named Ted.

Dav.id, the thought of SP "popping her head out of the oven" to do a brief postcard, well I don't know what, but maybe mail art could have saved her.

Ever the transcripter of the true narrative!

How do you know I'm not a famous writer? I could be Philip Roth or Mickey Spillane letting off some steam or gathering wool for my next busterblock. I could be Sylvia Plath popping my head out of the oven for a brief postcard. Btw, did you know that Ted Hughes second wife also committed suicide in the same fashion? After that, he got a hot plate.

Secret Life of a Court Reporter....By day, she fused with her machine to produce perfect transcripts, by night her mind wandered in a dreamscape peppered with allusions, subterfuge, sustainments and overrulings. One day after ingesting several cups of coffee from a strange coffee shop she'd never visited before the two worlds crossed over and suddenly the dry transcripts turned into surreal playlets of the absurd. She subsequently lost her job but made it big in Hollywood where her bios never failed to mention her humble beginnings as a court reporter.

You read my mind--that was the very next thought after hitting "Add Comment."

that's what i was thinking Nancy, but maybe BECAUSE KDJ can't express her full ebullient personality at work is why we get to enjoy it so much here.
