  • Hey, Zer: See the limerick I dedicated to you on the limerick link. Doreen ;0)

  • When people ask me what I do for a living I tell them that I'm a vampire. When they look at me oddly or laugh I ask: "If I told you that I'm a banker, lawyer or psychiatrist would I be a more respectable sort of a bloodsucker in your estimation?"

  • Oops, forgot to take credit for that one too. I, Doreen Ellen Bell-Dotan, am the bloodsucker unworthy of respect in the eyes of the bourgeois.

  • Nobody bothered to ask how I am today, but had someone I just might have told the truth. My health is failing. My stamina is so low that it lies as a stagnant pool around my swollen ankles. My self-respect may be buried somewhere under the floor tiles, but I have neither the strength nor the will to conduct an extensive dig for it. My sense of humor is in a coma. My libido is in an advanced state of rigor mortis. - Doreen Ellen Bell-Dotan

  • Hi Theresa, You are the love of my life. Michael.

  • This new reducing diet is really working! I'm not losing any weight, but I am getting shorter. - Doreen Ellen Bell-Dotan

  • Comforting thought of the day: There is an infinite number of women with my mind and Carmen Electra's looks who do not have to clean for Passover in infinite parallel universes – some perhaps as close as 10^10^497 meters away, give or take. Doreen Ellen Bell-Dotan

  • Who would want to have sex with someone with silicone implants? - Doreen Ellen Bell-Dotan

  • Answer: Someone who doubted the prowess of their partner and feared getting into a terrible accident. Thus the need for inflatable bags. Doreen Ellen Bell-Dotan

  • People, even more than things, have to be restored, renewed, revived, reclaimed, and redeemed; never throw out anybody. – attributed to Audrey Hepburn

  • I've done it! It's my tour de force. It's the crowning achievement of decades of not only theoretical rumination, but endeavoring to live according to the principles I hold most dear. I have not only defined and elucidated the precepts, but attained the level of being the living embodiment of my ideation. I have thus formulated the basis of a new movement, which I am absolutely convinced is the one and only hope for all sentient beings and to which I intend to convert the entire world – by force if need be.

  • I have yclept it Anarcho-Anachro-Nacro-Necro-Narcissism.

  • As the name clearly suggests; Anarcho-Anachro-Nacro-Necro-Narcissism is believing that one is oh, so special because one lives in a stuporous, stateless state which is out of, probably irrelevant to and almost definitely inconsequential and undesirable in any given time frame. - Doreen Ellen Bell-Dotan

  • The contention that an efficacious programme of ethnic cleansing has been implemented in "Palestine" is patently preposterous. Preposterous, I tell you.
