A O I

inamorato A man with whom one is in love or has an

inamorata A woman with whom one is in love or has an
intimate relationship. [Italian, feminine of
inamorato. 

The I**A** says I don't swing that way
(homosexual)..."yours either."  

Of course he doesn't know what Oed's (Arnold Snarb's
way is). 

He don't swing at all. 

He does ask her if she would like to be his Friend.
She won't even look at the guy, and she says, "I guess
not." Poor Oed. Or maybe I'm being too soft on her?   
He does say that she doesn't even know his name. She
hasn't bothered to ask. 

She does take a quick look in his eyes' Void. 
He tells her is a member of IA,  he says an
inamorat-O--a man Iguess, is somebody  in love. 

He says he kicked the habit, addiction young, he's
kicked love. He is an isolate. Whatsmore, the IA
communicate via an answering service. Two IA never
meet twice. Once they meet, say if one supports
another in a time of need, they never meet again. 

This is exactly what happens to Oed. The IA takes off.


But first we here a tale of the founder. 

BTW, anyone have anything bibliographical  on: 
the building of the Boeing manufacturing plant north
of Seattle, Washington. The plant itself, the culture
and religion of the people who built it , and the
ethics of the people involved  in the building,  the
relationship between religion, culture, philosophy,
and ethics
in the plant's development and construction.

After the War and when new info tech was introduced
and as general rule of hatchetman management, there
were huge lay-offs at Boeing and so this tale is not
so absurd. 

Even the eschatalogical stuff. 

He decides to tkae Brody. 
But first, perverse, he takes an add out in the LA
Times. He's not expecting to hear from suicides, a
habit of his training, he wants vailidating input.  
A bum brings him the letters from the suicides, but
none of them provide input to convince him that he
should not take the Dive. He makes a list--pro and
con, he simply can't make a decision as quick as the
I-Beam machine, defiant, but the monk burning in the
AP photo inspires him, not to protest the War, the war
in Vietnam, but to light himself on fire. This is,
after all, a man that survived the Normany hedgerows,
not to mention post war AMerica. But, agreeing with
Robert afterall, the ambivilance, the stamps, the
underworld, not religion (orthodos or corporate) saved
him.
