Has anyone heard from Swamp Rat?

[EFerrari]

I apologize if I've missed something, but where is our friend?

[spanone]

1. no, miss him and his art

[EFerrari]

2. I was just grumbling to myself that I haven't seen The Magistrate

and then realized, I haven't seen Swampy either. :shrug:

[spanone]

3. hopefully just taking a break....i've done it.

[Skidmore]

7. I had been wondering what happened to you too. I didn't know

you changed your name.

[EFerrari]

8. I caught this great doc about Faubourg Treme last night

(a district in NOLA, 6th Ward) and I wanted to ask Swampy about it. They'd integrated nearly everything until the Feds pulled the plug on Reconstruction.

9. Where's my buddy, Old Crusoe?

I love his insights and wisdom. Where is he?

[AlCzervik]

10. old crusoe is now saltpoint.

[EFerrari]

11. Old Crusoe changed his name to saltpoint.

The rascal. :)

[saltpoint]

12. He's in a locked ward in a remote venue, with round-the-clock

Haldol at maximum dose.

The old fool's finally getting long-overdue psychiatric treatment.

[alittlelark]

15. Cool.

I'm jealous.

[CTyankee]

18. Hey, Saltpoint! Nice to hear from you.

Hope whatever "institution" you are in is treating you well...

That Haldol sounds pretty good right about now...

[saltpoint]

19. Hey there, CTYankee.

And a big howdy right back.

Winter's not done with us in the Great Lakes states, so yeah, the Haldol has been a huge plus.

Although Dolly Parton on Larry King Live wasn't bad.

Hope all's well your way.

20. I'm teaching a course in the spring entitled "The Poet Laureate and the Inaugural Poet: Kay Ryan and

Elizabeth Alexander" for the Institute for Learning in Retirement here in New Haven. If it goes well with the retirees, I may teach it in an undergraduate English program at a local college come fall. That may be fun...

[saltpoint]

33. I predict it will be a strong success and hope you will

consider it a rotating option for the regular curriculum.

I love the idea that language / poetry must attend the imperative events of a culture.

[cliffordu]

21. Ah, yes, the ol' touch up and a little paint.....

Man after my own heart....

[saltpoint]

25. Hi, cliffordu.

[EFerrari]

16. I don't know. Swampy seemed to be okay and back to work on his disgree.

Maybe he's just hitting the books. :shrug:

[ColbertWatcher]

17. Damn university. I don't know why they don't just give it to him now.

Why are they making him "earn" it?

They must hate America.

[Bolo Boffin]

23. Where does one get a disgree? Farkquad University?

I keed, I keed! :D

[EFerrari]
