old Shep was an author and a poet?

stomping off just as the Browns will be a far, far better,

very different kickass football team must be pretty hard to come

up with a real explanation.

Byeee.

He should go for 100 and then quit. 

Eh, all those poets are drama queens anyway. Sayonara.

Goodbye NFL, goodbye Browns, goodbye Brownsboard.

Good luck all.

I'm with Z, why the drama? Just don't post.

Guys, I just hacked his account and found his e-mail, so we can send him death threats, viruses and spam e-mails. 

That's the modus operandi when someone leaves the board, right?

His problem, as a poet, is that he is sober.  Everyone knows that poets can only function when they are high on something:  booze, H, week, crack, whatever.   I wonder what Shakespeare was intaking.

Good idea, let's toast our dearly departed sober poet:

Dylan Thomas epitomised this tradition of the roistering rhymer – to the distaste of Kingsley Amis, who wrote a singularly unpleasant epitaph for him:

They call you "drunk with words"; 
but when we drink
And fetch it up, we sluice it down 
the sink.
You should have stuck to spewing 
beer, not ink.

Geeezzz some famous old writers we had to read in college:

.......But it's true that modern American literature is strewn with examples of alcoholic excess: Poe, Hemingway, Faulkner ("I usually write at night. I always keep my whiskey within reach"), Hart Crane, Tennessee Williams, Truman Capote, Dorothy Parker ("I'd rather have a bottle in front of me than a frontal lobotomy"), Ring Lardner, Raymond Chandler, O Henry, Jack London, Delmore Schwartz, F Scott Fitzgerald, ("Too much champagne is just right"), John Berryman, Jack Kerouac, Charles Bukowski, Anne Sexton, Patricia Highsmith – the list is long even without including those, such as Hunter S Thompson, more renowned for their experiments with other substances ("I hate to advocate drugs, alcohol, violence or insanity to anyone, but they've always worked for me"). In a new book, The Trip to Echo Spring, Olivia Laing looks at six American writer-alcoholics, beginning with the story of how the ageing, critically acclaimed John Cheever and an aspiring young unknown called Raymond Carver became drinking buddies while teaching in Iowa in 1973. "He and I did nothing but drink," Carver later wrote. "I mean, we met our classes in a manner of speaking, but the entire time we were there … I don't think either of us ever took the covers off our typewriters."........

did you come over from "the dawg pound message board" also ?

[TexasAg1969]

There once was a poet from Spokane  

Who dropped from the barstool to his can

When he came up for air

The franchise looked bare 

So he asked for a drop but no ban

Nope. This is the only board I go on since the AOL days? A long time.
