hey william quick question. what does en abime actually mean? its def not english, is it latin maybe?
It’s French! From one of those poems ol’ Thomas was always on about. He named the joint!
@ruinsofavoid Thank you for tagging me in your “Muppets” and “Worm on a String” jest! I do not have familiarity with either, but I gave it a shot!
Here is my Worm “on a String.” More like a li’l’ ferret snake than a worm to me, but here it is!
My quiz result is “Gonzo”:
Thanks for the entertainment!
Henry’s asking about my oldest memory. Now that one I recall, loud and clear. I’m a young man, seventeen or so, tickling the Ivories in the recording room. Singing. Back then we’d have to sing in front of this big horn, real big-like, I ain’t really ever grasped the concept of that thing but I assume it was capturing the sound somehow. I know they connect it to the stylus for the wax, and it etches as we go. That was before the handy dandy microphone, so things were a bit, ah, acoustical. I’m not a very machine-minded guy, I was just there to give them the tunes, so I just gave them the tunes, and left that kinda doohickey managing to the big boys. Nice memory. Air filling in my lungs and then out like a bullet. Sharp and dense enough to knock a guy dead. Don’t remember singing that proudly any other time in my life. My music kept falling off the piano as I practiced.
good luck on your trip 🙏
Thanks, pal!
Well, I think rollin' up your sleeves and divin' into some good honest work is better than askin' for someone else's cheat sheet afterwards, wise guy! Let's stop bumpin' gums and let the damn thing play out. A day left -- it's anyone's game!
handing this to william Instantly
WOW! Henry, take a gander! It looks just like you!

Hey Will, have you ever recorded (or performed at all) any songs in Mandarin?
Not a recording, persay, but I remember snippets -- an attempt -- humming walking down an alleyway -- midday glare -- smell of the herbs in a medicine store -- Couldn't tell ya the lyrics in full, though. Felt the strains of a beginning in my teeth -- whistlin'?

Listen, I don't wanna interrupt whatever lovely business those guys got goin' on. And no offense to them, but they're not really the kinda fellas I'm typically interested in, if ya get what I'm sayin'!
hi hi henry, sorry to see you’re not feeling well. i know you like nature, and when i’m feeling under the weather nature sounds cheer me up pretty well so i though i’d offer some :]

Well, when something used to stump me, I'd ask Henry about it. More brains is better than one! And keep watching -- I can't see as much as you kids think I can. None of us is used to hidin' out all scattered like.
Just two fellas who spend their time en abime. We'll see ya there!
