The Donkey is always trying to bring PJR back, because he knows that I prefer conversing with PJR to him.  When PJR is posting there's a good chance that he and I will be discussing literary topics (like the birth of written language in relation to Homeric Greece), and that the Donkey's much-spanked ass will get a much-needed break.
