I have a quandary I would like everyone's help on. When Lisa comes off her RV tour in a few weeks and starts reading all through the crazy stuff we've written, I am afraid she is going to
find my Time Machine episodes and remember me as NOT the
dashing suave character she saw me as last summer in Bellingham, Bellevue, and this past April in Eugene. In fact, she has no recollection of this, but I was the most ANNOYING, GOOFIEST, NUTTIEST, SPAZZMANIAC ODDBALL that she had ever met back in 1987--AND THAT VISION HAS COME BACK TO HAUNT ME!!!!!!!!!:eek: There are obviously things I have shared in those stories that I could say here, but for Lisa to remember them...IT'S TOO HORRIBLE TO CONTEMPLATE!!!!!!!!:crying: :crying: :crying:

So should I change my name so she doesn't identify my picture of me and her with my Time Lord/Time Machine adventures and freak out?? What should I change it to??

Okie dokie. To clarify::rolleyes:

Should I change my name in order for Lisa not to remember me
as the oddball character who met her in 1987 and bring back unpleasant memories that she has forgotten? If she sees my picture of me and her, she is going to put that together with my Time Machine stories and realize that I was the nutty character who attended her church.

Eye hoap thet wuznt 2 konfoozin...:crazy:

Initials...hmmmmmm...

Okay, here's another problem. Even if I change my name, it will still be under that new name if she reads my Time Machine stories, and not necessarily "Tad Warner." Right??

Seeing as there are 106 pages of posts regarding FOL, I doubt that she'll even find your Time Lord novelette entries. Don't worry about it. My guess is if she does pass this way, she'll just peruse the first page that pops up (the more recent posts). patriot:

You're right, she might not be able to devour all of our entries.

But...

THE TIME BEING?????!!!!! That's the most HORRIBLE CREATURE THE TIME LORD HAS EVER HAD TO BATTLE WITH!!!!!!!!!!:eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: It's FEROCIOUS, EATS ENTIRE POPULATIONS OF HELPLESS HUMANS, AND IS ONE DARN UGLY CREATURE TO BOOT!!!!

Did I mention it drools worse than a St. Bernard??

ME, THE TIME LORD "SCARY????" I AM JUST ABOUT THE NICEST DARN GUY IN THE WHOLE WORLD, LET ALONE THE WHOLE TIME/SPACE CONTINUUM!!!:D FER YOUR INFORMATION, WHAT IF SOME GUY FROM THE FIRST CENTURY CAME UP TO YOU AND SAID HE WAS FROM GOD AND TURNED WATER INTO WINE AND MULTIPLIED FISH AND LOAVES AND STUFF...THEN ROSE BACK FROM THE DEAD AND SOARED INTO SPACE AND SAID HE WAS GONNA COME BACK AGAIN??? OH YEAH, AND HE SAID HE WAS GOD AND WAS GONNA DIE FOR EVERYONE'S SINS?? WOULDN'T YOU THINK THAT GUY WOULD BE A LITTLE "SCARY"???

I'm the Time Lord, don't hate me because I'm beautiful.

Find another reason.:lol:

Btw, the example I gave above was from "Mere Christianity" by C.S. Lewis.

Okay, I won't do the Time Lord thing anymore. Can't afford to have people SCARED over my sense of humor. I'll try to be boring and ordinary...just all in order to be loved and accepted by NORMAL people...:rolleyes:

Okay, seeing that Karli and Lizzie are SOOOOOOO scared of the Time Lord....:rolleyes: I henceforth shall be known as The Time Dude . Not that this qualifies as an actual name change so Lisa won't figure out my TRUE IDENTITY...

I think that I shall have to face and accept the inevitable: Lisa MUST know of my past and how it intersected with hers. And I must confess here as well: the reason why she does not remember events of 1987 which involve me is that I activated the
handy TimeLord2000 Mind-Erase Device.

How silly of me to have forgotten...:rolleyes: :lol:

The Time Lord is the title I used to designate myself as the operator of the Time Machine used to visit Lisa Whelchel back in 1987. (In other words, I am relating an actual event that happened to me 15 years ago.) If you go back to posts in December-January, etc., you will find "Lisa's Time Machine" episodes.

But yes, I should be happy for being Tad Warner. Something no one can take away. You take the good, you take the bad, but you can't take away the coolness that is Tad Warner. Or the Time Being/Time Dude.
