[CanYoAssDigIt] Re: [Leslie_Morris_Online] September 11th.

Lez doesn't. I do. Some others on this list are at least
entertaining the idea, but I would go so far as to put some money on
it right now. Any takers?

I remember when I was at community college, there was this woman there
involved in student government. I was working on the student newspaper
and interviewed her for a profile. Her story was astonishing. She had
modeled professionally, she had such an incredible history. I thought
she was lying too. I of course had some useful visual information in
that case - SHE WAS VERY PLAIN.

In that instance, everybody else who heard her story was skeptical
too, but we were polite and held our tongues. it was a small school,
and we had to get along for a year or two together.

In this case, I'm half a world away, so I can say whatever the hell I
want, and you can call me heartless, abusive, blaming the victim, or
whatever, and I can shrug it off, or if I'm feeling thin-skinned that
day, I can simply leave the list.

I've seen people make extraordinary claims of amazing achievements, or
incredible abuse. people made a name for themselves in my semi-famous
little town by saying that they'd been tortured by satanists - or
Satan himself. To question the stories no matter how implausible (or
even ludicrous) was despicable - heartless, abusive, blaming the
victim...

It's an interesting coincidence that this Ofelia has the same name as
one of the prime role models for the Fin de Siècle fashionable ladies
with the chic tubercular pallor.

In conclusion, why do I think she was lying? Because I've seen her
around. A lot.

Now, if anybody is interested, I can tell the absolutely true story of
how my band opened for Nirvana once. And you will believe it, because
it sounds like a true story. Because it is.
