jennarenn Even if the links are down, the list is still useful. You can just look up the author of the list and do a little digging. Jul 20, 2007
reesetee True. Then I'll take 'em down. Jul 19, 2007
uselessness I'm sure John will be poking through here sooner or later, it's only temporary. :-) Jul 19, 2007

U, I edited my posts here--hope that helps. I do use this page a lot. Thanks for setting it up. Jul 19, 2007
uselessness Oh, that's odd. Not sure what happened. It's a shame, it's a good list (in desperate need of updating, I'll admit)! Jul 19, 2007
slumry Must be an out west thing--they don't work here either. Jul 19, 2007

oroboros I just added a "prosie" titled "The Hard-boiled Seduction of a Soft-boiled Egg" (list name: Prosie: Pornographie?) May 5, 2007
uselessness Consider it added. :-) May 4, 2007
oroboros I listed a new poetrie: Poetrie: A Proposal May 4, 2007
reesetee Haha! I know what you mean--I do the same thing. Luckily, I haven't done it on this site yet.... May 3, 2007
uselessness Oh, LOL, I missed that. You've caught a glimpse into the way I think, by pasting notes for myself into empty parts of text areas. Just happens I forgot to delete this one when I was done with it. ;-) May 3, 2007
reesetee Oh, not the list itself. That's just fine--and thanks again for setting it up. :-) It just looks like a stray address ended up at the top of the page.... May 3, 2007
uselessness They're alphabetical by title... do you know of a better way to sort them? It is a little awkward, I'll admit. May 2, 2007
reesetee Oroboros--GREAT choice! I've always loved that tune. :-) U, I think O's Tunie link ended up in the wrong place on this page, though. Or is it me? May 2, 2007
