now, basically because i want him to
write one for me....reason being that he
is one of the funniest boys i know. And
i know a lot of boys. It's true that
Ben sometimes talks in a drooly retarded
voice...for which we used to call him
"Drooly Mc-tardo." Ben also really likes
The West Wing, which is going to make
him an awesome politician one day when
he runs our country and has his pretty
drooly face on the democratic flag or a
new quarter or similar. Ben, I wish you
would come back from Asia. I really
miss seeing you sporadically every few
months and having a meaningful catch up
session.
baby on the street, i think of the joke that ben
and i would mutually try to keep to ourselves.
god save us all.
would talk in this spitty, retarded
voice-as if he had a debilitating
speech impediment- in order to avoid
taking responsibility for what he was
saying. I hope he still does this; I
have incorporated it into my own
repertoire of funny voices and I don't
want to be alone.
has plenty already. As such, I will
add a monial. "As such" is not a
phrase one should ever use in a testi
or a monial. Nor is "one". But, I'm a
rebel, baby. That's right. Bad. to.
the. bone. So is Ben. Ben makes me
smile. But, that's not that great a
feat, I suppose. Hm...alright. Ben
makes me cry! Ben, you meanie! How
could you? I kid, folks, I kid. Ben
could not make a depressed person with
chronic over-active tear ducts cry.
Because he is just a kind, kind soul.
Luckily for us, sometimes his soul
likes to make funnies. Ben will be
president one day. I can smell it.
Smells kind of peachy. A lot like
Sedna. [oooh - look at that, i'm inter-
testimonializing]. If you get the
reference, you should be ashamed of
having read far too many testi /
monials. Ben was voted #1 kitty in
high school. He sure is #1 in my book!
YEA! See ya around ... like at Libe
and stuff. Like if you're not busy, or
something, like y'know. Honey oodles
of frosted kitty litter love.
about whether you'd rather be completely
stupid but happy all the time or have a
brain and experience the full range of
emotions, including the bad ones?
you've had that conversation, right? so
have i. not with ben, i don't think.
but the thing is, ben has that stupid
joy of a child and/or monkey, but
without the stupidity. you see where
i'm going with this? he's carefree and
fun and awesome, but also smart and
interesting and studious. yeah, you
know what i'm talkin bout. ben.
Believe me. There are ways, Dude. You
don't want to know about it, believe
me. Hell, I can get you a Ben by 3
o'clock this afternoon. With nail
polish.
Singing. Snapping. Dancing. Peanut
butter and jelly pads. Dig it.
Ben" (circa 1998) celebrating his
birthday in a jam circle at the ALHC. A
certain very chesty Hollywood dancer
came into the jam circle, and Little
Ben was at nipple height. I still
remember the smirk on Ben's face.
Ben , you are so diiiiiirrrrrrrty.
