72—concerning the strength of Patrick and Mimi’s passions for one another—Fragment of a Typed Copy of a Letter—Undated, the Original Copy has not been found, it is assumed that the author of this letter was Patrick’s wife, Michele, written during their brief separation. It has been said on many occasions that Michele was never comfortable speaking English much less writing it, especially considering the lack of English language news bites that exist concerning her. The misconception about her lingual abilities has grown so much that the common belief nowadays is that she spoke no English at all. This letter proves her comfort with the language. It is also worthy to note that since this letter lays to rest one misconception about her, it should go far into putting a doubtful light on some of the other more popular rumors about her moral nature.
“…..once cooled left me to thinking about us. As I sat there I thought that I wanted to kill you, I really did. I wanted to kill you and I thought about killing myself as well. I even made a plan to do it, and I imagined almost blissfully what it would be like to be found together, bloodied, dead, entwined and how different would it be than the times we made love, except for the part about death. How ludicrous is that for saying, “once cooled”?
I make no sense.
My point, Patrick is that you’re wrong in saying that our love has disappeared or cooled or vanished, you’re deluding yourself. How can you touch me so deeply and my impression has disappeared. Your rationalizations for it astounded me then as they do now. And yesterday when you looked at me, I know you still felt it, my love, it almost killed you. Even in silence we can torture one another, it seems as if we were built to torture each other.
Patrick we were put on this world to feel, we are the same sort of creature you and I. We are inexplicable, we are entwined, we are emotional, and we are sensual. We are affected by each other, the thought of each other and the very fact that you deny it so strongly only proves that I am right.
I have tried my best to form a different life for myself. It is impossible because I don’t belong to myself anymore as myself, I will never be a separate entity. Love is a funny thing because we cannot manufacture it, we can only manipulate it, and sometimes, we can inadvertently awaken it but I don’t think we can ever truly expunge it from our hearts.
The only time I can think of where it has not taxed or pained me emotionally has been during childbirth and even then, the pain a woman must feel is excruciating. But the pain is not unbearable, it is beautiful a physical manifestation of the emotional tears in life….”
Two Saints named Cecilia
may be Too Many
The original Saint Cecilia was a first century martyr for
the Christian faith and has been throughout the centuries
one of the most beloved saints, the patron of Martyrs and Musicians. She was a
symbol for the beginnings of Christianity. And some more fervent supporters of
her memory are taking a firm and unyielding stand against the upcoming
canonization of Sister Cecilia Lafet which will be on October 17, twenty one
years to the day after her assassination in a
Sister Lafet, detractors point out, was never really a nun, she was antagonistic to the Catholic Church on almost all factors, and had even gone so far to say on a few occasions that she knew for a fact that Jesus never died on a cross. The Crucifix she wore, is a sign of her hypocrisy it is said. The so called “Supporters of the Real Cecilia” maintain that Sister Lafet’s canonization is not due to any true evidence that she had performed any sort of miracles but only the Church bending to the sentimentality of a world that loved her as a talented and showy diplomat. The Church also, they claim, is trying to win over public support that has waned in the light of numerous sex scandals, accusations of misogyny and homophobia, and even political conspiracies.
The supporters of Sister Lafet are numerous and gather to protest the protesters in rallies that sometimes cross the line of aggressions. They accuse the SRC of resorting to a petty smearing campaign to discredit the miracles of Sister Lafet. They are referring to the SRC’s claim that there is evidence of Cecilia’s insatiable sexual appetites which would greatly embarrass her memory and that of another individual.
Attacks on Sister Lafet’s morals are not new, her supporters note, due to her great physical beauty. Even while she was alive there have been numerous claims of photographic evidence of promiscuity but never once has the public seen such pictures…….
Hockey Star Scores a
Steal
A rare incomplete set
of Saint-Saens’ treasures sold
New York—“I am sick of the search, I am dying and looking at the empty case only increases my pain,” was the reason Multi-Billionaire Terry Cromwell gave for selling a set of Saint-Saens original bracelets for a fraction of their market value. Cromwell has been diagnosed with fatal complications resulting from a Small Pox vaccination that originated in the 11882 JHM cases that had been tainted by terrorist design. Cromwell will have the dubious distinction of being the last living survivor of the notorious biological attack from two years ago that took the lives of 728 civilians and 80 health workers.
It seemed as if Cromwell had beaten the odds and recovered from the virus and had by all accounts been doing well until two months ago when health complications from his illness began a systematic shut down of his bodily systems, but upon hearing that he would not recover, he began to sell off every valuable antique and collectible in his New York mansion at garage sale prices. His reason being, that he wanted to see people who would not normally be able to afford some of the art he possesses go home with something they appreciate.
Cromwell’s most treasured possessions were the famous Saint-Saens one of kind bracelets, a set of sixteen made of gold and encrusted with precious jewels. Cromwell had fifteen and the only one he had been missing was the infamous “Patriot” which had seemingly disappeared in 1986 when it was first purchased, and made a rumored brief reappearance in 2003 when it was quickly sold and resold. Other than that no other note was made of its whereabouts despite Cromwell’s repeated pleas to buy the bracelet from whoever owned it for over ten times its value, which could have been upwards of ten million dollars.
Yesterday, Cromwell sold his set of fifteen bracelets for
seven and a half million dollars to future Hockey Hall of Fame alumni Frederick
Roy. The market value of the set, even incomplete, is estimated at twenty
million dollars. A witness to the sale noted to Mr. Roy that he never knew that
he was such a connoisseur of collectible jewelry to which
Terry Cromwell has stated that all of the proceeds from his “estate sale” will go to charities.
Sister Lafet’s Murderer Assassainated
Little is known of the man in custody, it is believed his
name is Timothy O’Shea and he shot Mallory once in the head with a pistol. He
was overcome by police officers and detained. Mallory died on arrival to
O’Shea was heard to say that he owed the health of his son
to Sister Lafet and that Mallory would pay in Hell for what he’s done……
(Excerpt from a News Article)
…..saw a man actually kissing Sister Lafet the day before her death. This witness wishes to remain unidentified and has not come forward previously because of her fear that there are those who would retaliate against her for repeating what she saw. She maintains that Sister Lafet was consensually kissing an unknown man in the pews of the Cathedral in broad daylight. The kiss was not chaste, and it struck her as odd.
Although this man is not a suspect as of yet, he is the last known person to actually come into contact with Sister Lafet. The police would like to talk to him. He is described as being about six feet tall…….
Stunning Debut from a
Ballerina Princess
Not even a snub from
Sister Lafet can mar the entrance of an ingénue
Rome, Italy—There had been so much buzz about this girl from every ballet insider in the industry even though she had not even starred in a principle role onstage, that the Pope requested an audience for her debut at the Christmas Festivities in the Vatican. The guest list was stunning and the girl, Elena Ruiz, 17 did not disappoint. As a seat designated for petulant World Savior Sister Cecilia Lafet yawned with emptiness, Miss Ruiz danced solos from four different acclaimed ballets.
Not a dry eye remained in the house after the girls performance which was described by many as angelic, effortless, flawless, exquisite, erotic, breath taking, sensual and finally put to words by the Pope himself as, “the swaying apex of all the beauty God can create.” Miss Ruiz performed five encores and never seemed to tire at any time; in fact she was described as only more beautiful with each passing moment.
She has received offers already from almost every prominent ballet company on the globe and seems set to enchant for years to come.
When asked about the snub from Sister Lafet, whom private sources quoted as calling the ballet “frivolous and inconsequential to my time”, Miss Ruiz answered, “I wasn’t looking to her or depending on her for a job. She can practice her magic tricks and I can dance my magic, I doubt our audiences will ever cross.”…..
King Of
The Kiddie Corps
By Bob Kravitz
Issue date:
For one day last spring
The cries of "Rooooo-ah, Roooooo-ah" that had punctuated every Canadiens
playoff game now resounded along the parade route. And then a handful of young
girls broke loose. They rushed
By any measure,
Just a few years ago the notion
that a kid such as
…"Oh, I'm not so bad,"
Hey, a guy needs an occasional jolt of over-the-counter
energy to maintain the pace
"I have my two feet on the ground," he says in
English, a language in which he is only beginning to feel comfortable. "I
know this is all a dream. I understand that. So I lived with my family this
summer, and I have the same friends. We still do the same things we've always
done: play deck hockey, softball. . . . It's important not to change.
"I don't want to be a one-year player. I want to have
a long, successful career. And the way to do that is to not forget how you got
successful in the first place. I once asked (35-year-old defenseman) Larry
Robinson, 'How do you stay excited after all this time? How do you stay
interested with all the games and all the travel?' And he said, 'Every game is
something new, like the start to a career, so it never gets boring.' " ……..
