This is simply to say thanks for your having linked my page to here. I guess that was merely on the strength of my entry in your guestbook... such is this batheing in the aura of this endless sea.
Ciao miaow...

That's basically it, yeah. I was flicking through my guestbook to see who had posted there. I've got more to add now. Joker, Mike A and someone else. Anyway thank you for bothering to thank me

I'll admit I followed that link with some trepidation. I've never been called a souvenir befour...
Thanks, I think?
Thanking you for thanking me

Hmm... I'd prefer to be thought of as a souvenir rather than as a trophy... if those were the only choices going!
Thanking you for thanking me

Did I really spell 'before' wrong up there? I think I'll go take a rest for a while...
Thanking you for thanking me

Well, the process of being turned into a trophy is rather a drastic one for the individual being trophied. Fatal actually. Head and shoulders hacked off, sent to a taxidermist, stuffed usually into a manner and pose not natural, mounted onto a slab of wood generally obtained under environmentally destructive methods, then hung on a wall in a dingy hall to gather dust.
Being a souvenir though, your souvenirness consists of photographs, thoughts, letters, poems, cards, images, emotions, impressions, experiences, memories... things that allow you to carry on being, and perhaps above all to enable that collection to grow, change and evolve.
Souvenir wins over trophy everytime -and you get to change some of the souvenir collectors too!
