Has anyone heard from babylonsister?
I really enjoy her posts and appreciate the work she puts into them.

But the real issue is that she is a regular poster who I haven't seen on the board recently...and I am just hoping she is ok and maybe just taking a break from the vitriol, since her posts tend to be less emotion-driven.

Plus...I wanna' give her a heart...

:shrug:

3. No, and I haven't heard from Sapphire Blue in awhile, either.
She was evidently quite ill. I'm a little concerned.

20. I'll take it...
'a "swooning horse"' is just fine with me.

Just give me a horse with character, with spirit.

Don't want no Plugs.

I want Fire.

And if 'sister is gone because of all of this sophomoric bullshit, I am going to light some up around here.

If she is gone, I am on the next train outta here.

Get out of it, Son, and put that old guitar away...

6. Last thing posted was end of January
If she has gone...DU has certainly lost a valuable commodity.

8. Her most recent post (from Saturday) says she's posting from "MX".
Edited on Mon Feb-11-08 01:56 AM by scarletwoman
I don't know if "MX" means Mexico, but maybe she's on a vacation?

Here's the link to that post

Anyway, sounds like she's fine to me, but go read it for yourself. Hopefully, it will relieve your worries.

18. No, and I just realized that
I haven't. I miss her and it would be great if she were around now when Obama is winning some states.

21. She's on vacation with family. I think she'll be back tomorrow.
Edited on Mon Feb-11-08 05:15 AM by Hissyspit
If you want to give her a heart, do a DU search for one of her posts. That's what I did.

27. Thanks for asking, adsosletter-I'm back! Just got in a bit ago. I missed
DU a lot, especially on Super Duper Tuesday, but had been trying to keep tabs, tuning in to CNN Espanol which had better coverage than CNN Headline. :eyes: And I occasionally found a 'puter to read up, but my skills with a Spanish keyboard leave much to be desired. From the little bit I've seen, taking a break was a good thing!
:hi:

28. Now I have to play that song...
BABYLON SISTERS

Drive west on Sunset
To the sea
Turn that jungle music down
Just until we're out of town
This is no one night stand
It's a real occasion
Close your eyes and you'll be there
It's everything they say
The end of a perfect day
Distant lights from across the bay

Babylon sisters shake it
Babylon sisters shake it
So fine so young
Tell me I'm the only one

Here come those Santa Ana winds again

We'll jog with show folk on the sand
Drink kirschwasser from a shell
San Francisco show and tell
Well I should know by now
That it's just a spasm
Like a Sunday in T.J.
That it's cheap but it's not free
That I'm not what I used to be
And that love's not a game for three

Babylon sisters shake it
Babylon sisters shake it
So fine so young
Tell me I'm the only one

My friends say no don't go
For that cotton candy
Son you're playing with fire
The kid will live and learn
As he watches his bridges burn
From the point of no return

Babylon sisters shake it
Babylon sisters shake it
So fine so young
Tell me I'm the only one
