Please don't make fun of Christina. She is a beautiful person who
wouldn't harm a fly,

Norman Bates' Mother: [in police custody, as Norman is thinking]

"It's sad, when a mother has to speak the words that condemn her own
son. But I couldn't allow them to believe that I would commit murder.
They'll put him away now as I should have years ago. He was always bad,
and in the end he intended to tell them I killed those girls and that
man, as if I could do anything but just sit and stare, like one of his
stuffed birds. They know I can't move a finger and I won't. I'll just
sit here and be quiet, just in case they do... suspect me. They're
probably watching me. Well, let them. Let them see what kind of a person
I am. I'm not even going to swat that fly. I hope they are watching...
they'll see. They'll see and they'll know, and they'll say, "Why, she
wouldn't even harm a fly..."

Whether your reference was intentional or not, I'm wryly amused by
the reference to a fictional sufferer of multiple-personality
disorder.

and is merely trying to help me post to the
group at night. If you want to make fun of me, that's fine,
but please leave her out of it.

Does she post here or not? I'm not one to "make fun" of
people here, but I think anyone who's apparently (if
appearances are to be believed) volunteering to act as your
cipher is putting him/herself in a position to be made fun of.
(Or pitied, depending on whether we're talking about the
arranged-marriage bride in Coming to America or Norma Desmond's
first husband in Sunset Boulevard).

She may well be a beautiful person. (I'm still waiting for the link
to pictures). I do have a problem with someone who wouldn't harm a
fly. Why not? They are filthy, disgusting and annoying and there
are trillions of them. Christina should go kill a hundred or so
of them just to help a bit.

Well, I think I found a picture of Bismo, in case anyone was
curious: http://whrwalumni.org/viewphoto.php?p=1037 . I see
no flies, nor Christina, however.

Catch you later.
