Howl

[yakalskovich]

Hei, woelfle, tonight I did howl like a wolf!

I was at an impromptu party with some friends, barbecue in the rain and all that, and they had a dog, and demonstrated how that dog would howl with them if they howled first. I chimed in, and in the end the whole partyful of people howled like wolves, the dog ecstatically joining us:


Aaaaaaah-OOOOOOOOOOoooohhh!!!!!!

Phylogenetically = development of the species, carrying with it the connotation that we have unused remnants of earlier evolutionary stages within us. Embryos having tails and all that, you know.

Yes, my RP life is interesting. The whole RPG is very interesting; I have often confessed to it having "eaten my brain". You've been there for a while, or are at least watching us, aren't you?

Here is the whole poem; it's not about wolves more, but about the phases of the moon, and emotions being changeable but recurrent just like them.

[Note to people like japanologist, the Nazgul or Sphinx, who are likely to look in here: that pome is of course not ME speaking, merely a character I play within an online RPG (Role-Playing Game)!]

Yeah, I did watch it some time ago, but these days I'm just too self-obsessed with making stupid posts to catch up with anything else. :-D

I vill now, of courrse, go and read zer poem!

Hah - such is life. Well, I had my brain eaten by it and am still waiting patiently for it to get spat up again.

But you can do an Überwald accent as well as the next Otto Chriek or Lady Margolotta...

Ah, ze accent. It might haff somezing to do vizz zer fact zat it is made in eqval parts out of two roundvorld languages called German and French, vhich I happen to be sorte of familiair vizz.

Plus, it iss great fun to rrite and tends to convince any infidels zat I am truly a, how does vone say, nut's case? annoy unsuspecting readers.

Vell, zo am I, in fact. I can do zer 'accent as vell if I haff to, but I trry to avoid it - it makes my characters look zo zilly. In loggage, of course, vhen zey 'arre speaking, I am qvite villing to do it...

"Rrite", you zay, offering me zer last missing element for zer verry harrd 'accent I vill haff to use zoon forr my prresent main character in forthcoming loggage: how to do zer harrd "R". I vas ztill vonderring whther I should trry a double "rr" or rrather a "rh".

that we have unused remnants of earlier evolutionary stages within us.

We've got a reptile inside us as well as a mammal. But I have to say I prefer the wolf.

I think I'll have to go and howl at the moon at least once in my life.

[yakalskovich]

Oh, reptiles are fun as well! Just imagine, somewhere, hidden deep within our cells, out DNA remembers the dinosaurs...

Yes, do try the Howl, it is - a remarkable experience.
