HI MONTYOriginally Posted by Monty
I did not know Mike, maybe he was important to you, or maybe just a friend
Please tell us more so we can share your grief.
I hope you personally are keeping strictly to your diet and medication, and be a great host as usual next visit.
You are a Pattaya living treasure

I also did not know Mike, but my thoughts are with you, his friends and family at this time.

About my books
There's been far too much loss amongst the members of the board lately.
Let's all hope there's closure to this chapter soon.
Monty, my best wishes to you at this sad time.
Whether you feel like sharing more about it or not is up to you (to borrow a phrase); everyone deals with grief in their own way.
Know that many here are sending you wishes for peace and strength, whichever way you choose.
Is this a haiku?Originally Posted by Monty
Knowing that Monty might not be back online on the forum for a while, I asked him tonight who "Little Mike" is (was?):
Little Mike was a regular when Monty ran the B&B and swimming pool in the Sunee area. Monty described him as about 5'2", from London, in his 60's when he died, and with a neatly trimmed little beard. He said "dapper" would describe him well.
He posted Little Mike's demise for those of you who may have known him from the B&B and pool.
Such a poseur but not well informed enough to know a haiku has only 17 syllables in three lines.Originally Posted by homintern
And any "well informed" person ought to be able to see that dear homintern is not a poseur at all! He merely sought enlightenment by asking the question whether or not it was a haiku... The answer, of course, was "no".
"The fruits of peace and tranquility... are the greatest goods... while those of its opposite, strife, are unbearable evils. Hence we ought to wish for peace, to seek it if we do not already have it, to conserve it once it is attained, and to repel with all our strength the strife which is opposed to it. To this end individual[s]... and in even greater degree groups and communities are obliged to help one another... from the bond or law of human society." [Marsilio dei Mainardini (c.1275-1342), Defensor Pacis]
Was not the reference to a relatively obscure Japanese poetry form perhaps just a tad over the top considering the subject matter of this forum?Originally Posted by Marsilius
Homintern can't resist taking the piss even on a serious thread as the death of someone who posted on this board. I am now convinced that Homintern and Boygeenyus are one and the same.
Whoever Little Mike was may he RIP and strength to those who knew him and lost him
Don't try to hold in farts - they travel up your spine and into your brain and that is where shitty ideas come from.
