There was hardly enough room for me....<br /><br />You are one of the few people who understand how important journals are. As you said, it's amazing and interesting to read about the past and all the things that went on in our lives. I also kept records of all my piano concerts, all the famous people I met, and - of course - a my sexual exploits. I even kept photos of my lovers in those diaries.<br />thirty years of writing are gone forever.<br /><br />I wonder who the hell is reading them......Jonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02619128793632680659noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8660581276521005822.post-22510358152828650422017-07-30T14:19:39.242-05:002017-07-30T14:19:39.242-05:00Oh, you are so bad ( I desperately wanted to comme...Oh, you are so bad ( I desperately wanted to comment on your most recent post)!<br /><br />Regarding the board games you mentioned in this post: Has everyone totally forgotten Masterpiece?<br /><br />I literally was introduced to fine art from this so-called children's game. Hell, I didn't know a Warhol from a Picasso. Masterpiece inspired me to do much needed research ASAP.<br /><br />Let the Capitalists shamelessly glory in Monopoly. The world needs more board games like Masterpiece to remind us that there is such a thing as art. Sadly, even fine art is now more about money than what the artist was trying to share and express with the world. Poor Vincent :-)<br /><br />P.S.

I stopped keeping it when a "friend" (a homeless guy who I let stay in my apartment) read it and discovered that I suspected he was a hustler (he was) and tore out ten pages and scribbled in pencil "I AM NOT A HUSTLER!" That killed my journal keeping habits for years. However, in April of 2007 I started to keep a journal again and continue do so unto this day. Now I regret I didn't continue keeping my journals back in 1980 until today because those were indeed interesting periods of my life. I go back and read my old journal from the 70's now and am amazed and what I did and where I did it. Of course half the names I don't remember but it is interesting to read about "that" Ron back then. I doubt if anyone will be interested in reading my journals now after I'm gone. I only keep them now for my own therapy. Again, I am so sorry the movers lost your journals. I was hoping they would have shown up by now.<br />RonRonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11161930319264523497noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8660581276521005822.post-26838544909009788692017-07-28T19:01:18.072-05:002017-07-28T19:01:18.072-05:00Thanks for reminding me of this!!

I simply write down what is racing through my head. I'm glad it amused you!<br /><br />I used to be a fancy fine dining type of guy, but now that I live entirely alone in the boonies I really don't care what I eat - and I try to make it as simple as possible.<br /><br />I do occasionally eat Hungry Man dinners - solely because they are simple. And I truly do think the portions are getting smaller. They should be called Hungry Child dinners.Jonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02619128793632680659noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8660581276521005822.post-80849107636911842602017-07-28T10:24:24.374-05:002017-07-28T10:24:24.374-05:00From that perfect hillbilly house picture to the l...From that perfect hillbilly house picture to the last line, this was a terrific post. Lots of funny lines in it. I especially liked the ones about being pope, about being embalmed, and the word "parlor." One thing surprised me.

In short, I'm delighted with your whole post --even if you like Trump. We both know how rapidly the pendulum swings by now --common ground with deep substrates: we like peace.
