Pink, 

You must have observed that some people are notorious for looking at
questions that have been specifically marked 'For x's Eyes Only'.

The serial offenders are: Cynthia, Steph53, Politicalguru,
Timespacette, Myoarin, Answerfinder and, of course, Kemlo.

Now, I would like to commission you to write a devastating po in which
you lambast each and everyone of these offenders.

Naturally, you may also include any others who are caught peeping at this question.

Many thanks

Bryan the Avenger

(Still yearning for Diana Rigg)

Oh yes ... re Zsa Zsa ...

For your info, a friend in Mexico has advised:

I've been chatting today to Martin X in Southampton, for free.
The only snag was that voice quality was pretty awful!

Bryan,

Lamb basting is best done with mint jelly. By way of making calm-mint,
I have created a few limp bricks. They are po things, but mine own.
And now they are thine own, too.

Cynthia:

There once was a GAR known as Cyndy:
Research was her modus vivendi.
She peeked at your q
Because the wind blew
And things are exposed when it's windy.

Steph53:

What to say about Steph53?
She peruses your questions with glee.
I really can't blame her
Or tut-tut to shame her
Because she's a whole lot like me.

Politicalguru:

There is a great guru political
Whose mind is a bit analytical.
She examines your query
On the general theory
That ignoring it is hypocritical.

Timespacette:

Timespacette's a gal without peer
Except when she's peering in here.
Her comments are deft:
Though she leans to the left,
I would probably buy her a beer.

Myoarin:

A remarkable man is Myoarin:
He's erudite, funny, and foreign.
He peeps at a question
And gives a suggestion
And bores in without bein' borin'.

Answerfinder:

Answerfinder, of New Scotland Yard,
Is someone I hold in regard.
I have no objections
If he makes inspections
Of questions that seem to be hard.

Kemlo:

Peeping kemlo crept into
Probonopublico's latest q.
In a terrierist caprice,
Daisy ate him, piece by piece,
Leaving nothing but a shoe.

I've just made a service call to a UK supplier regarding my monitor. I
spoke to Jessica who had a North American accent.

I asked her where she was from and she said 'Oklahoma'!

I told her that I had been to Tulsa and she said 'Poor you!'

What on earth did she mean?

Bryan,

I am of the opinion that nobody named "Jessica" is truly a native of
Tulsa. Real Tulsa girls are named things like "Sue Ann" or "Louella"
or "Brandine". This person is probably a recent arrival who makes
sarcastic Yankee remarks and is embittered because she doesn't fit in.

Another possibility is that you misunderstood her because of the Okie
accent. Perhaps, rather than "poor you", she actually said "pour vous"
(some of us Okie gals speak French). So this may have been a
hospitable invitation: "Tulsa - pour vous!" Of course, if this Jessica
had been feeling really hospitable, she'd have said "pour toi,"
n'est-ce pas?

~Pink

Excellent Pink but ...

Myoarin ain't at all foreign!

He's a Wild Colonial Boy from the Good Ole US of A.

True he lives in Europe but that only proves that he's also got excellent taste.

Pity about poor Kemlo but Daisy really does have a ferocious appetite.

And I always thought that Kemlo was Dog's Dinner.

Goodbye, Kemlo ...

! ! ! ! !

In my day a "po" was something little boys sat on when they couldn't reach the loo.

The river Po??

Ohhhhhhh. For *Pinkfreud's* Eyes Only. I thought you said . . . oh, never mind. 

Queen Ha :)

There's no way this is going to happen.

A. Pinky is one of the sweetest nicest most wonderful women I know. I
can't picture her suddenly writing impolite comments about other
researchers.

B. There's no way to figure out who has been peeking....oh wait...crap
I just let you know I peeked.

Mother!!

I'm in here, too!! 

*Waves and smiles*

Hi Bearded One

You wrote:

'Pinky is one of the sweetest nicest most wonderful women I know'.

You really KNOW Pinky?

I am bowled over!

I had previously thought that Goddesses lived on Mount Olympus and
were always out-of-reach of mere humans ...

Especially bearded ones.

Another illusion shattered.

Or maybe you really are a Teddy Bear?

Confused of Hove

Bryan, 

I've seen her. She's also as lovely in appearance as she is in heart. 

Sincerely,
Queen Ha

It should have been a more specific title. It is not my fault.
Example: ONLY PINKFREUD MAY BE THIS LINK.

By saying "For Pinkfreud's Eyes ONLY!" I thought I had already broken
the rules when I read the subject and I might as well go all in. I
didn't realize that it was the actual question that I wasn't supposed
to view (and that the question title was legally viewable) so
therefore I was already on the slippery slope and though I had broken
trust already. Anyway, more careful crafting of question title next
time!

I always look.

Cheers

And I just looked too, wirte (Kemlo's disease is invectious - 
dangerously so, it seems) right off the plane.
If Mother-911 has seen Pinky, he must have some connection to the
Greek gods, being bearded, I assume he is an alter-ego of Neptune  -
obviously not up on Mount Olympus, but maybe he snuck a look when she
came down to bathe in the Aegean one day.  His estimate of her was
quite correct  - and I am flattered!

Po:  Didn't know Kemlo's reference, but it relates to the German
understanding of the word as the contraction of "popo", an expression
for (not only) a child's bottom.

Our Beau Queen certainly deserves mention.

Lovely answer, Pink!

Bryan,

Thankee for the five stars and the tasty tip!

Regarding Myoarin, he ain't from Oklahoma, so I say he's a furriner.

~Pink

With all due respect for folks in and from the Sooner State, I don't
mind being a "furriner" in their eyes  - even Pink's.  ;-)

Here I am...better late than never ;)

Was there ever any doubt???

Thanks for the nice little "po", Pinky :)

Steph53

My eyes have gazed upon the beauty and wonder that is the Goddess
Pink. To this day, all things seem somewhat hazy and bland, as if my
world is in black and white except for the memory of her.

To think that this was a simple photo of her, imagine the reaction of
seeing her in person I imagine one would be blind, or wish to be since
all things would seem offensive to the eye in comparison.

[-- Mother911-ga --]

O Bearded One ...

You are a TEASE!

I, too, have seen a photo but that is hardly the same as seeing her in the flesh.

I'm now beginning to wonder about Bouquinha's claim to fame ...

Anyhow ... What do you mean by peeping at THIS QUESTION in the first place?

You are very naughty GARs. Both of you.

Many thanks for your explanation of Jessica's remark ...

I am duly comforted.

ATB

Bryan

For your info, Pink, I just spoke to Jessica again and she told me she
was from Creek County, about 45 minutes south of Tulsa. (Walking, on
Horseback or by Jet? She didn't say.)

She was VERY helpful and has confirmed my already good impression of
gals from that neck of the woods.

I am very familiar with Creek County. My father was born there, in a
town called Sapulpa. My great-grandfather was a judge on the Creek
County Court in the early years of the 20th Century. Small world, eh?
