ABM...you suddenly surfaced on us and then disappeared all over again.
Troy Johnson told me on the night that we were setting up this board that he really missed you as a poster and that you were one of his favorites.
He said that you were brilliant, versatile and that your input around here was really missed.
Many others feel that way, too....and you know how much "I" love you.
Why have you abandoned us?
And by the way----what do you think of the KOOL ROOM anyway? Now Thumper can't ban me anymore, because I have my own yard all to myself.
Pretty snazzy, ha?
ABM. You're such a heartbreaker.

ABM---
if you turn out to be John Edgar Wideman, which is the rumor that PERSISTS....
...I will "KILL" you with my bare hands!
I don't like him---and after all I've trusted you with and all the chatting and soul bearing and "play fun" we've shared---you had better not be.
I'm mad at you right now anyway.

Whether I adore you as "ABM" or not is beside the point.
I loved you because of a TRICK you played on me...if it's true.

If you ARE J.E.W., then don't even talk to me anymore and don't come back.

Kola,
I appreciate your and Troy's (and "many others") opinions of my contributions to this site. You (and anyone who's read our MANY exchanges) know how I feel about you. And I'm at least as much an admirer of Troy as he could ever be of me. (Troy's one of those kinda guys who reminds you of MAN.)
I truly miss posting here. And look forward to doing more of it, as I did in the past.
But I've had a series of personal/business issues that have dominated by time/resources.
Within the last few months, I've endured the following:
@ Death of a childhood friend.
@ Sale of part of one business, ongoing sale of another.
@ Fire at my mother's home, which precipitated...
@ My mother(60+), grandmother(90+) and wife's grandmother(90+) 'temporarily' moving in with us. [I've had FOUR generations of Black women bossin' me around! HAHA!]
So, it's not that I've intended to eschew visiting with you all. It is just that because of the many recent distractions, I've found it difficult to focus elsewhere.
But things are beginning to gel.
My mama and big mama will be moving on within a week. And my business dealings will be settled soon.
So you all may begin to 'see' more of me than you have in recent months. Though, consider the cliché: "Be careful what you wish for!" (Hehehe!)
PS: I am profoundly flattered by what you surmise But (AGAIN) I am NOT John Edgar Wideman! |

God, ABM.
I love you so much.
You are just so wonderful!
Sorry for all your hard times. I knew you were going through a lot.

I'm so glad you're back. Now it really feels like home.

"Somebody"
told me you were John Edgar Wideman. Another famous writer and an agent both. So I was very worried---after all the intimacies and stuff---and being that I don't care for him.

Chris says: "I knew you wasn't Wideman--cuz he didn't read no comic books!"
ABM says: Yeah. Well, even Wideman's not perfect. HAHA!
Thanks! |
