RP: HOW Did I Let This Happen to Me???

RE-PRINTED from here: http://theweathercontinues.blogspot.mx/2014/10/how-did-i-let-this-happen-to-me.html

Mt. Ranier in Washington state, last night.

>>> I PRETTY WELL KNOW WHAT HAPPENED

1. Coming to the point where I need to get with the legal actions necessary to move my life forward, I have been delaying, afraid of failure -- or even that I really AM totally mentally ill and just an aberration of over-skill in getting away with things -- and to TRY to move forward could PROVE THAT!!!

So being energetic and with a highly active mind, frustrated by my own not yet moving legally, I have been acting RIDICULOUSLY in some ways -- including what I did to poor Ms. Kat D'Andrea (no, neither she nor anyone else on her behalf, has contacted me again). I certainly gave Kat a hard time and used language deliberately meant to shock her.

The only REAL thing I had meant to do was to let all the directors of plays at the Provincetown Williams Festival know what I was up to -- and of course that I salute John Lahr for his book.

This morning, CNN ran a story on famous beards in history. Later, I will show you who is CURRENTLY the greatest beard.

2. Frankly, I'd rather be writing about Marian Seldes, but will do that next posting. Now, a bit more on how I am seeing what is important to pursue and what is not.

Yesterday's photo of me as a fat baby is actually my face imposed on Diamante Azul's rather large baby -- and he has not asked me to remove it. I hope he realizes there are no consequences to ANYONE for me to post it.

3. An email exchange:


Hi David,

First of all, I REALLY thought I had taken you off my list after our last dust-up. Sorry, I will take you off now.

While it's NOT true that I have forgotten you or our past -- both physical and words-sparring-ly -- it is true that I have more important things to worry about than any of that. To me it's all a great story, and one that if I write for publication, I would hide your identity. Let me also make clear that I never really believed you ever acted as an agent of Sewanee,  your school of graduation, in the Tennessee Williams feud.

Talking recently with someone in a situation like mine (legal problems based on lies -- none of which you caused, just to be clear), the biggest thing that drives us both crazy is people claiming he and I have done horrible things by telling the story of what happened, when they ought to be angry at themselves over what they did when they thought they could get away with it. 

The things like that which you were involved in are things that have already produced consequences, and you seem to have survived all that -- in fact you are thriving again now, if I can believe your website. I don't think there is a THING for you to worry about.

I never heard from ANYONE at Chimerix -- or Herve, for that matter. And your writing about my emailing your friends/neighbors without identifying them leaves me curious, because the only one of those that I know of who is your friend is published novelist Laura Argiri, who when I last communicated with her a couple of years ago, seemed to agree in general with how I've characterized you.

So I wish you the best in your art and other ventures you get into -- as well as your continuing relationship with Herve. He certainly knows how to handle a hot firecracker like you -- and that is meant as a compliment.

I doubt you will appear in my blog again. I DO appreciate the ABJECT need in North Carolina of SECRECY about nearly everything. I hope to strike some good blows against it, mostly by attacking the fake Christians like my wealthy relatives and their Episcopal Church and my former Catholic Church, etc. There are also many FINE people who get value from those religions, although the theology of it all seems insane to me.

Dear Scott,

We've had our recent, little  email-wrangle.  The final fact is that...yes indeed, you do tell lies....BIG ones.

I gather you've heard from Chimerix's lawyers. I assume that you won't continue saying that Herve uses his credentials to supply anyone (let alone me, here in our own house) with illegal prescriptions.  Do it once again....and your fat ass will land in jail.  Did you finally figure that out?

I'm also neighbors with/friends with several folks who've been the recipients (and subjects) of your "newsletter" and other typings. I don't intend to tell you which ones, since that will only make things worse.

Would you please have the basic decency to realize that, for all you know, the person whom you're discussing is already facing a second biopsy, the sudden death of a child or parent (that would be the case for two of the folks you've involved in your self-promoting nastiness) and/or any number of very real problems in this world?  Why do you feel compelled to bring such ugliness into folks' lives?

I liked you when I met you (when was that?....1990 or so?)....but you really should stop doing this.  You're causing a lot of pain and distress for at least several people (as I said, I know them).

Be as clever as you please, but try being kind for once.

Quite sincerely,

David Terry

4. OK, the WORLD'S LARGEST BEARD TODAY!!!:

From the URBAN DICTIONARY:

Beard

Any opposite sex escort taken to an event in an effort to give a homosexual person the appearance of being out on a date with a person of the opposite sex.

Half of the women on the red carpet at the movie premier were not real dates, but beards.

5. And lastly, a photo sent by another Scot-blooded person:

As a Scot, I now suffer from feelings of inadequacy -- THANKS, Colin!!!
