I have read the previous threads, and seen the photographic evidence (e.g., Jim Thornton + My Little Pony), about the Forums get-togethers at the Colonies Zone meets.
Is anyone interested in a get-together at Nationals in Indy? Saturday night after the relays, maybe?
I am going to be helping Allen develop a little detachment with regards to his obsessional features, which alternate with denial, syncopated by occasional intrusions of intellectualism as noted in the oft-cited medical chestnut:
See one
Do one
Teach one
Repeat
After all, isn't this what swimming in a cold liquid box is really all about? Meticulously prescribed lane lines that can not be breached; Euclidian geometry in mainly two dimensions, with just a touch of a third appearing at regular intervals, precision, invariability, order: a sterilized-by-chlorine perfect backdrop for improvement of ones self by the bludgeoning into silence of the brain, so that memory is no longer of the mind but of the muscle.
When you have read and understood the wisdom of what I have written above, under the influence of Sonata, and you can not only parrot it back to me verbatim but explain its sense in a way that I can understand, then we shall both be liberated enough to begin work, Anna Lea, on your freestyle!
And by then, of course, our newly minted sexagenarian will need no breaststroking assistance from the likes of youngsters like us!
