Don't thread on me Jeremiah!
I can see no reason for your sudden antagonism
Would you please explain.

As far as I can remember, I have only replied to one of your threads - it Stinks To Be Here.

In that thread I said nothing at all offensive, and yet out of the blue you make this unjustified, out of place, and unprovoked reply.

If there is any way I have inadvertently offended you, let me know, and I will be the first to apologise.

It was a joke.

There was a Jerry Garcia-looking guy who worked at the gas station between my work and home. A number of us used that station regularly and got the vibe or the experience that there was something very special about him. His Buddha nature was palpable.

A friend told me she was once on a city bus and a guy got on. He didn't say a word but she said everyone on the bus brightened up. And then he got off and she said you could feel the brightness start to slip away.

We used to say, 'Be the guy on the bus' and we each knew what that meant.

I was a couple feet away from Catherine Deneuve on a few occasions in the last 10 years or so. It certainly was not the same tepid feeling of being around some flash in the pan celebrity.

The warmth of her personality comes across even in photos.
If I saw her in real life, I would be totally transfixed.

A few years ago, I got chatting to Patsy Kensit in a queue at a sandwich bar.
It wasn't like a magical moment, but she was so natural and easy to talk to, even if it was about doughnuts. ? such a nice young lady.
