Ta Ta, Troopies

My long experiment, begun in July, 2002, with writing a public but anonymous journal is over. My anonymity is key to this voice, and I've learned a very great deal about people who don't feel accountable to each other, or to me, in this anonymous venue.

You know who you are.

You know I know who you are and that I have no compunction in outing you. That how-to-give-a-blow-job book on your Amazon wish list was my personal favorite, and when the time is right, I'm going to tell your boss, my old friend, all about it.

What makes me sad is that the most vicious and unscrupulous among you are politically ambitious progressives. Good luck with that.

I'd also like to point out it's none of you that have brought this experiment to an end.

I've decontaminated the internet from links between this journal and my real name. From now on this will be a friends-only anonymous journal, instead of a public anonymous journal.

Leave a comment if you'd like to friend. I'm not pruning the friends list I have, because y'all are like, friends.

I'm confused so I'm leaving a comment to friend just in case I need to.

[purejuice.livejournal.com]

oh i'm not pruning the friends' list. no worries.

[anemone58.livejournal.com]

I'd like to stay!

[purejuice.livejournal.com]

not purging friends. never.

[19-crows.livejournal.com]

I'm confused too but would like to keep reading.

I already know how to give a blow job.

[purejuice.livejournal.com]

do you now?

[purejuice.livejournal.com]

oh, p.s., no drama, this is not a purge of friends.

[atthesametime.livejournal.com]

I'd like to stay as well... sorry if someone is infringing on your privacy.

[purejuice.livejournal.com]

i'm not purging friends. just protecting the anon factor.

[villagecharm.livejournal.com]

I'd like to stay on board. Sorry the experiment with a public but anonymous journal is coming to an end, but I understand.

[purejuice.livejournal.com]

no purge, all is well.

[aulaitcru.livejournal.com]

Will you add me back? I understand if you do not want to, but I will miss your posts terribly.

[purejuice.livejournal.com]

oh yes!

[niyabinghi.livejournal.com]

Yes, please!

[purejuice.livejournal.com]

ok!

[michaelsullivan.livejournal.com]

friend, please, if you are willing. I don't know anything about you other than that I enjoy reading this journal.

[purejuice.livejournal.com]

sure, and thank you.

[saffronruby.livejournal.com]

Sounds scandalous...I am SO ALL IN!But that aside this is always a good and informative read.

[purejuice.livejournal.com]

thank you, i'm not purging the friends' list. you're always in.

Fame, fame, thou glittering bauble...

[minniethemoocha.livejournal.com]

Don't let the turkeys get you down.

Re: Fame, fame, thou glittering bauble...

[purejuice.livejournal.com]

there are no turkeys getting me down. the firewall was breeched, is all.

[kmd.livejournal.com]

What makes me sad is that the most vicious among you are politically ambitious progressives.

Heh. After 10 years of living in D.C., all I have to say to THAT is: quelle effing surprise.

Glad you have a firewall.

[purejuice.livejournal.com]

none of them are -- well, only one of them is -- here in d.c.

[one-serious-cat.livejournal.com]

Hi.

[purejuice.livejournal.com]

there is no purge. you're always welcome.

[liveavatar.livejournal.com]

Still in if there's an in to be had. Sorry about your firewall being breached; that's important to me too.

[purejuice.livejournal.com]

there is no purge. write on.

[goodliver.livejournal.com]

I still read your journal at what I like to think is a respectful distance. You unfriended a long time ago. I just thought I was uninteresting to you any more and probably held some opinion you found repulsive.

The reason I am commenting here is because I would like to continue to read your writing here and it sounded like you might be going "friends only". I won't comment or bug you in any way, but I find you informative, touching and thought-provoking. So if you are going 'friends only" I wanted to ask you to re-friend me. I don't post frequently, so I son't clutter up your page. You can skip over me easily I'm sure.

The other reason I am commenting is that I wanted you to know that I still read your journal. That relieves me of any feeling that I might be considered a lurker. My intentions are all completely respectful.

I have no desire to ferret out your public identity.

[purejuice.livejournal.com]

i did? i'm sorry. you're welcome here.

[annie-r.livejournal.com]

and me too. I think I found you a few years ago on daisydumont's journal, and check in now and then. good stuff.

[purejuice.livejournal.com]

thank you, welcome.

[biblionerd-girl.livejournal.com]

I'm sorry that someone had nothing better to do with their time then squirrel around with your journal. I thoroughly enjoy your posts!

[purejuice.livejournal.com]

thank you.

[orso-amoroso.livejournal.com]

*something coarse and inappropriate yet mildly amusing*

[purejuice.livejournal.com]

tee tee
oh god i meant hee

[tdanaher.livejournal.com]

I've not friended you before, having been only a reader, but if it's okay I'd like to be on your friends list. I've recommended your journal to other people as an example of a person who has offered more wisdom about life than any other person I've read online.

[purejuice.livejournal.com]

gosh. i would friend you even without such a whopper. thanks, consider it done.

[garrity.livejournal.com]

I don't mean to pry, and I wish gracefully to respect your wishes about privacy, but I have rather missed your voice recently. I hope to hear it again if that's appropriate, and if not, I'm sorry to have bothered you!

[purejuice.livejournal.com]

i've missed you too, come on back to the raft, huck, honey.
