  1. That's the implication of my statement
  2. You are missing my point.
  3. The irony is that maroon also means brown. In Switzerland it means chestnut. So Pioneer is indeed a Brown nut.
  4. Bastids are you a native New Yorker? @Mel Hopkins
  5. You would think my posting it twice with two spellings and an explanation would make it clear that i know the difference between maron and maroon and moron. Not even the Bugs Bunny quote helped. Okay guys.
  6. are calling yourself a maron? History and Etymology for maroon Noun (1) Perhaps someone else can explain this to you. Not understanding won't impede you or anyone else.
  7. Perhaps you will have better luck emailing her than I did. @Troy
  8. maroon noun (1) ma·roon | \ mə-ˈrün \ Definition ofmaroon (Entry 1 of 3) 1capitalized : a fugitive black slave of the West Indies and Guiana in the 17th and 18th centuriesalso : a descendant of such a slave 2: a person who is marooned So you are either are runaway slave lost or a chestnut. But you are not a Free Man by definition. I stand corrected Bugs Bunny didn't say maron.
  9. I could be wrong but I don't think thats a title Mel aspires to based on her comments. Clearly I am not speaking for her I am just guessing or presupposing.
  10. You are calling yourself a maron? History and Etymology for maroon Noun (1) probably from French maron, marron feral, fugitive, modification of American Spanish cimarrón wild, savage
  11. Front Office Middle Office and Back Office is the plantation system. Troy Mel and myself are house Negroes. Pioneer is a field Negro.
  12. I hope that that i am wrong. Next week will be two months that she hasn't been here. It feels like this goodbye stuck.
  13. Chevdove I am not always a humourless critical snarky person. The rest of the time i am a sarcastic critical snarky person that emotes a statement so drenched with venom it's a bit funny.
  14. As far as astrology there are onky a handful of people that know what they are doing. Astrologers have been tested, there have been a few studies and they haven't convinced me. I have missed my prediction about Trump. However I don't think he will finish his term. I think January 2020 will be his watershed moment. That being said I still have two open predictions for both Troy and Pioneer1. I could be mistaken however I have made some timed predictions for individuals that are documented on Facebook. However i am not practising in a way that even astrologers comprehend. For example i make predictions without using the natal chart. Which except for horary astrology unprecedented as far as i can tell. In addition I haven't come across anyone that can create an astrology chart from a word or a number. But perhaps I am deluded. Time will tell.
  15. How do you measure : consciousness ; love; beauty or poetry ?
  16. We have different approaches and motivation in our interactions @Troy
  17. BigThanks @Mel Hopkins i read everything on this site that was in English years ago. I always appreciate the look out twin. I miss the absence of your voice but I understand your position becuse it mirrors Cynique mine and al the other silent observers. I believe the University of Bath briefly had an astrology degree. Which waa actually mkr like a history degree. @Troy I am guessing inhad abiyt 80 astrology books and probably read another 80. At one pont I had three Astrology Encyclopaedias. And an astrology book store moved in two blocks from me. I also had three library cards. One was from an esoreeic library.
