        I'm trying.  I found what might be a good email address for her after I tried
sending a greeting to the Yahoo one; the Yahoo one bounced back after a few
hours. But the one that I hope is good hasn't bounced yet.

        Is Lamplighter-with-internal-capitalization the memory handle that I'm filed
under?

Take a trip to Mexico.  Poinsettias are native to the warmer clients - until
the priests brought them to the masses (paronomasia unintended).

In police lingo (around here, anyway) it's soosh, or

If you come across someone who seems passed out & you can't tell if it's
hyper|hypo-glycemia, just remember: when in doubt, give sugar.  Something
under the tongue which will dissolve without causing them to choke.  Even a
sugar packet will frequently suffice.

Egads. You ate food from a WalMart?  Food at WalMart, KMart, Target, et al
ranks up with toxic waste.

The only thing worse is food from a Kwik-E-Market (e.g., hot dogs, cooked
sandwiches)

Not unless the context is weird.  But if you're writing something for

I know--that's what I end up resorting to. But then I remind myself
that other programs allow you to browse. For example, Windows Explorer
lets you browse photos and documents.

I really need the 'web' of 'web' browser, but I don't know why!

I've had New Haven "apeez"* a few times when Emily lived in her
old place. it was very good - thin crispy crust just the way I like it.

* I can't remember the exact spelling but there's an "a' before
   the p in New Haven pizza. Did we talk about this in 1991?

The Parrot

John got a parrot as a gift. The parrot had a bad attitude and an even
worse vocabulary. Every word out of the bird's mouth was rude,
obnoxious and laced with profanity. John tried and tried to change the
bird's attitude by consistently saying only polite words, playing soft
music and anything else he could think of to "clean up" the bird's
vocabulary. Finally, John was fed up and he yelled at the parrot. The
parrot yelled back. John shook the parrot but the parrot got angrier
and even ruder. In desperation, John threw up his hands; he grabbed
the bird and put him in the freezer. For a few minutes the parrot
squawked and kicked and screamed. Then suddenly there was total quiet.
Not a peep was heard for over a minute. Fearing that he'd hurt the
parrot, John quickly opened the door to the freezer. The parrot calmly
stepped out onto John's outstretched arms and said "I believe I may
have offended you with my rude language and actions. I'm sincerely
remo rseful for my inappropriate transgressions and I fully intend to
do everything I can to correct my rude and unforgivable behavior."
John was stunned at the change in the bird's attitude. He was about to
ask the parrot what had made such a dramatic change in his behavior,
when the bird continued, "May I ask what the turkey did?"

Thanks.  I didn't know that.  You might be unique on this service in being
a person who both earns wages and collects Social Security.  Or does
Natalie also collect Social Security?  I don't think she's old enough.

Does "browser" have to have Web in front of it for you to understand
it as the thing you use to surf the Internet?

I usually can hop right up after giving blood, but last time I did, I was overly confident and went to Taekwondo in the evening -- I think not the first time. I almost fainted there. Had to sit out after a while. Probaby not too smart.

No, it's not. I'm stating how I'd like them to start off.

I fully understand the politics involved.  I'm of the belief that any time
two or more persons are together, politics are involved, no matter what else
is happening.  The politics continue right up to the end because you have to
choose your final opponent then let the other seven people choose between
the two of you.  Very serious politics.  Sometimes people have made a very
unwise choice of their final opponent because of incorrect presumptions
which came out later (and they might have realized at the time if they'd
paid attention).

I am, however, curious to see if the "cliffhangers" they've been advertising
for tonight live up to their billing.

I remember when we used to talk a lot about this type of thing - but some of
it was before there was a web.

I usually ask, "what browser do you use?"

And I also say, "I received <x> email messages." whereas the local news
tends to use "I received <x> emails".

Are you certain it wasn't a Bare Reserve and the words were "Go Bares" ?

Yes indeedy.  One of the most glorious summers of my life.

Phatic Drivel Pilsner was one of the two beers I took to Wordstock.  I
think the other beer that I took there in my suitcase was named Headless
Chicken Porter.  The porter was pretty good, if I do say so myself, but the
Phatic Drivel was, to this day, the best beer I have ever brewed.  (Just
beginner's luck; it was my first time brewing a real pilsner.)

For the 1997 tour, I took the same two beers that I took to Missionfest.
Neither of them was named, that I recall.  There was a pale ale that was
the crowd favorite, and then there was a Belgian-style witbier (brewed with
wheat and coriander) that was seemed to find more favor with the
cognoscenti than with hoi polloi.

I said eighteen - others may have as well.  Reread what I was responding to.
There was an assertion that "notable people" should likely include only
people who have won.  In response, I stated what you've included.  If only
winners are noteworthy, then the All-Star game will consist of at most seven
or eight people.

Depending upon the final cast, some of the castaways indicate they are going
for the unusual chemistry to see what happens.  The fact they are monitoring
people around the clock and can condense twenty-four hours to just over
forty minutes means they can editorialize with whatever they've got.  I
don't think there's any disagreement their production efforts require the
many weeks in advance to airing to create the story they want to tell.
They're supposed to be in late production now and it won't air until the
Super Bowl; usually the third Sunday (or so) in January so they've got
plenty of time to play show-and-tell.

What's really bad is when they offer samples when you enter the door.
Smelling the food is bad enough.  My first mission upon entering is to get
beyond that area of the store.

I live in a town of 50k people who have a median income of $50k (likely more
by now) and there's so much traffic in|out of CiCi's it clogs that section
of the parking lot.  There must be a lot of tightwads or a lot of people who
have lost their sense(s) of taste+smell[1]

No kidding.  The prez is the only one in at 6am.  Most people are on
vacation.  I can't leave because there isn't anyone else who can fix the web
code if it doesn't do what the testers think it should.



[1] My first job involved two or three of us who had a rather good time (we
tried to avoid doing so at any innocent party's expense unlike in college -
I've been told I could write a book).  My neighbor would get a cup of
coffee, leave it on his desk, then go get printouts to analyze.  I started
doctoring his coffee with all sorts of concoctions and every time he didn't
react so I had to keep upping the ante.  One day, I was coming down the hall
about the time someone opened the men's room door which was just across the
hall from the morgue.  Larry was about ready to step into the line of fire
and I alerted him to the effect something wasn't doing very well smell-wise
(I saw my first autopsy when I was fifteen, the second when I was nineteen.
On my list of life's adventures|goals, I've made a negative entry: no more
autopsies)  He responded by reminding me of the brain surgery he'd had about
a year before he started to work at the hospital. He'd had a tumor which
needed to be removed.  As a result, taste+smell were sacrificed.  I didn't
tell him what I'd done for a long time after, but I was ticked off because
I'd wasted a lot of creative juices tampering with his coffee.  I was almost
ready to try something like ipecac.  It's probably lucky for both of us I
didn't try that. It's nasty stuff. My medical mentor would be poisoned by
ipecac because it wouldn't cause him to produce any dinosaur calls so he had
an alert tag warning people of that.  Personally, I was a big fan of burned
toast (activated charcoal).

Interesting! I don't give blood - can't - so have never witnessed any of
this. But if the density of blood is an indicator of likely symptoms (as in,
perhaps, leading to quicker exit from the body for thinner blood, a sudden
change in pressure in the system, hence dizzyness, I speculate???) then
eating something that thins the blood might perhaps do this? One of the few
quick acting things I could think of would be capsicum, which makes the heart
speed up and might perhaps dilate the arteries? It is a fairly strong
stimulant - so maybe hot peppers before giving blood might alter the system.

The only people I've seen going in|out with kids are one adult::multiple

find a trash can.

My understanding is that the drop of blood is put into a solution of copper sulfate which because of relative density gives an indication of the amount of iron in the blood.  If the droplet floats you might be borderline anemic.  I used to give blood - gave six gallons before they disqualified me because I have a boyfriend.

I think you may be onto something here.  I saw the catman's cousin in
his garage yesterday afternoon shortly after I returned from the strange
blood experience.  He was probably watching for me to see whether the
plan was working.

I don't think I mentioned the candy in my first description.  I've
always called them hot tamales.  But then I don't say fridge for
refrigerator or oj for orange juice either.  Or tuna for tunafish.

I loved the hot tamales we ofen had in my childhood.  I wonder what ever
happened to Jack's Hot Tamales in Jackson.  It was a tiny place -- a
pick-up place, iirc -- as in nobody actually sat there to eat.  We
sometimes stopped by there on the way home from junior choir practice at
church late on Thursday afternoons and got hot tamales to eat that
night.  Daddy adored them.

I have never heard anybody say the initials SS or SSA.  Nor have I ever
heard sossecurity.  People in my experience all say "social security"
except in offfices or whatever when they're asking for your number, in
which case many of them just say "What's your social?"  The bloodsuckers
have taken to asking for it right before they poke the needle in.  I
remember thinking yesterday that some suspicious people would not think
it <proper> to be calling our your ss# with lots of other people
listening.  I could've memorized the ss numbers of those other blood
donors yesterday and stolen their identities.  Anyway, I'm pretty sure
the bloodsucker didn't say "social" -- he said "state your full name and
social security number."

?  I don't know anything about KMart and Target since they don't exist
here, but I find Wmart's food just fine.  Except for the lunches I eat
on campus during the normal workweeks, about 99.9% of the food I ingest
comes from Wmart.

Did I mention that our Wmart has started selling wasabi peas?  I was
delighted to find them a month or so ago.  And yesterday I discovered
that they now sell Kikko's instant miso soup.  I bought two three-packs
of it yesterday and am looking forward to consuming it.

But in I prefer "web browser" as the name of the thing, not sure why.
Possibly to distinguish it from window-shoppers?

Yes, you have. If you've ever heard a Washington politician talk about
SS, that's how they say it. Alyce is the one who brought this to my

I thought Phil's point was that it couldn't very well be limited to just
the past winners since that would be only eight people.

That kind of battle is well known, but exactly what does it have to do
with toxic food?  Iow, why does it mean there's anything wrong with the
quality of Wmart's groceries?

I have no knowledge of any cooking going on at our Wmart, though I do
think there's a small area with tables, where I guess people can order
food and eat.  I've never smelled anything cooking there or seen exactly
how food/drink might be procured in that room.  I will pay more
attention next time I'm at Wmart.  I had thought of it as maybe
something like a coffee shop.

Ah, that brought back a happy memory.  The convent I was in, in Milwaukee,
had its own greenhouse.  At Christmas time the greenhouse was filled with
poinsettia of every color.  Very lovely sight.

I'm glad you returned to this dead bird since it reminded me that there
were questions I was going to ask re census info, etc -- things
MFTAOTL.  But I'll save them for now.  I need to move quickly through
the rest of the mail before getting on with various projects.

?  Why are you apologizing?  My question was one of simple curiosity.
You act as if I was complaining about being singled out.  I wasn't.  I
also haven't noticed that I'm any more interested in COLA raises than
average.  It's quite a reasonable thing to notice if you're about to
retire on what would otherwise be a fixed income since the future might
not be so fixed.  So, yes, I have a reasonable interest in such matters
-- but nothing like your intense interest in money.

But it's based on the false premise that there have been 8 shows. And
it hasn't been that many. It's illogical to think that it was only
winners.

"Survivor FAQ

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Question:
How many seasons have there been?

Answer:
The show first debuted in the spring of 2000, but they've packed in
four seasons since then and as of this writing are a few episodes into
Season Five."

Here's a three sides around the barn answer:


1. Take a peek here:  http://tinyurl.com/wmpr

I used "Joseph Finn" as my search text and had a couple of hits.  Generally,
anything in nanae (news.admin.net-abuse.email) or nanas
(news.admin.net-abuse.sightings) indicates you're dealing with scumballs.

2.a. Take the provided domain name (linkfinanceandtrustltd.net) and ping it:

   216.136.232.176

2.b. Go to http://www.spews.org and enter 216.136.232.176. You should
receive "This IP address was found in SPEWS." as a response along with
"Click here to see the data/evidence file.".  SPEWS is the nastiest
block|black list against spammers.  Admins who use SPEWS for blocking junk
block *lots* of junk (and the occasional false negative).

In all seriousness, take a peek at the "Click here" to see the evidence
collected in that file (this is a small sample):

    [66.218.65.94]     http://log-paypal.com (stealing from PayPal/eBay
customers) (dead)
    [66.218.65.95]     http://cgi3-ebay.us (stealing from PayPal/eBay
customers)
    [66.218.65.97]     http://cgi5-verify.us (stealing from PayPal/eBay
customers)
    [216.188.92.148]   http://www.ebay-register.info (stealing from eBay
customers) (dead)

over time, SPEWS will push the IP address one level higher so everyone
receiving from that level will bounce and those users will complain. The
goal is that enough "good" users will complain loudly enough that the
sysadmins will isolate and disconnect the spammers.  The ISP's sysadmins
have tried to negotiate to only isolate the troublemakers but that doesn't
stop the trash, hence the severity of the actions.  Lots of people will
appear in nanae and either 1) ask to be removed because the spammers have
been removed (usually a lie as people check); or 2) beg forgiveness because
it's killing their business.  That's when the response is, "When you
terminate the spammers and it's validated, we'll remove you.  Not a moment
before."  You'd be surprised how many people who don't understand how "the
game is played" will come in hot & heavy, making all sorts of demands,
threats, etc.  Before long, they're ignored, they leave, then return, hat in
hand until they find out what they'll have to do to be removed - and it's
not unusual for them to beg off the punishment because they don't want to
disconnect a "prized" customer.  Some will even tell their customer to lay
low for twenty-four hours until they're out of SPEWS and they start back up.
They will generally get that one spam batch started before they're back in
SPEWS.  After that, the ISP will have to permanently disconnect the garbage
truck ("fool me once...") and they *really* hate to disconnect the gravy
train.  (I can only imagine what those meetings are like:  "Dude, we're
going to have to cut you off. They're claiming you're spamming and they're
blocking all of our email.  We have to cut you off or lose everyone's
business." "But you didn't tell us anything in advance...")

At this point in time, the Federal law about to go into effect Jan 1, 2004,
will be as effective as using a spoon to hold back the ocean during a
hurricane.  I can reassure you, however, that the antis will not alter any
of their practices to halt the activities of those attacking their domains.

I can't decide.

I often get e-mail for other people @wordwrite.com. These people in
Hong Kong have been sending e-mail for Tom off and on for about six

I have not asserted anything about anyone's groceries. I purchase from a
number of different grocery stores and not just the ones we have here with
carpeted floors.

I've made mention of the prepared food you sit & eat at KMart, Target, and
the ilk. I would put those on par with gas station hot dogs & sandwiches,
Golden Corral, and CiCi's.  Holly has never eaten at White Castle (and
doesn't want to start) so she can't counter my assertion regarding where the
various prepared foods ran by comparison.  And there are times when White
Castle is easy to find:  2:30am-3:00am, just look for lines of 20+ cars.
They're stopping for food on the way home after the bars close.

This is killing me.  Thinking about the quality of these foods and dealing
with the hangover.

Ah, so your interest in money is reasonable, but mine is not. How do you
know my level of interest? What is your level of interest? (Reasonable
does not exactly specify level of interest.)

It's a "friendly wager" (read above) - I'm not staking anything on it - it's
a gentleman's wager.  It'll be won when they finally research it correctly.
Holly will not bet with me for two reasons:  1) I have inside information;
2) I have the ability to affect the outcome.

In this case, it's neither. But she still refuses to bet with me.

This is a silly assertion. Some of the most popular people didn't
win--and this is definitely a popularity contest.

I know that you've been longing to use this word in conversation, but
I must confess I don't get the joke. MWD dates to 1879 (but provides
no cite) and defines it as " any of an order (Artiodactyla) of
ungulates (as the camel or pig) with an even number of functional toes
on each foot".

I think there's a poem in there somewhere.

An ungulate is "a hoofed typically herbivorous quadruped mammal (as a
ruminant, swine, camel, hippopotamus, horse, tapir, rhinoceros,
elephant, or hyrax) of a polyphyletic group formerly considered a
major mammalian taxon (Ungulata)"

I like that word, polyphyletic.

Is it the herbivorous part that makes this funny?

But **I** didn't make the assertion. I can dig the message up if you'd like.
I said there were eighteen and they would likely be making choices based
upon prior performance or likelihood of contribution of chemistry to this
mix.  It was then said someone like Rupert wasn't a true survivor and as a
result shouldn't be included in an All-Star series.  That's when I said,
"How many series have there been? Seven? Eight?  If you only pick the people
who have won, you're looking at a small All-Star series.  The fact [that]
fewer than seven series have taken place simply begs asking my question
again.  How many? Five? Six?  If those numbers are correct, it's an even
smaller All-Star series.  That's why I've asserted all along chemistry is
the important factor.  Colby added chemistry although he placed second and
Tina slipped in under the radar to finish first but I don't think she added
chemistry along the way; if she did, it was subtle. And I don't know if
they're going to place much emphasis on several subtle participants vs. some
who will really put a stick in the beehive and keep it lively.  I wouldn't
be surprised if some of the characters are being brought back because
they've been down the path, shaking the bushes together (it's been rumored
to have been occurring more than the producers would like to let on).  I
think if they handle the All-Star casting correctly, it truly could make for
an interesting showdown.

FWIW, I would never willingly write 'point your browser' to or at
anything. I keep wanting to pick up the hapless shopper and direct

The only time I ever felt faint after giving blood was the first.  I was a college student and it was back in the days when the glass bottle was hanging just where you could watch it fill.  My friend Norman and I went to donate at the same time.  We had a pretty competitive friendship and when we got stuck at the same moment it was clear that we had to have a race to see who could fill up the bottle faster.  I won, but I also passed out.

I usually can hop right up after giving blood, but last time I did, I was overly confident and went to Taekwondo in the evening -- I think not the first time. I almost fainted there. Had to sit out after a while. Probaby not too smart.

Yes, probably, but there are some which are truly <representative>. In NYC, there's Lombardi's, Totonno's, Patsy's and John's (plus others, and a bunch of good slice places). But there's some not-so-good pizza too. In New Haven there are several places, names of which aren't permanently stored in my head (Pepe's? maybe...).

Actually, this reminds me of a funny coincidence. When Bruce and I lived on 76th Street, we got our pizza from a place called New York Pizza Co. When we moved up to Westchester, we found a place we like sort of randomly (and there are very many -- we live in a hugely Italian area) named Annuzelli's. So, we've been eating this Annuzelli's pizza for several years now, and last time we were in, we noticed the pizza man was wearing a NYPC shirt, so we commented. He had worked there until just about the time we moved and started working at Annuzelli's just about the time we started eating from there. No wonder we like it so much!

La Familia de Meeberos Primeros has been merrily rolling along this week,
preparing an array of delectables and being verily thankful for the
plentitude that has become our lives.

We will have the Thanksgiving Day meal at home but will visit parents today
and Friday to round out the festivities.

May you all similarly enjoy this week in whatever way suits you best.

Has anyone else read the speculation older African-American ladies are less
prone to broken hips because they tend to wear more padding on that portion
of their bodies?

Nope but it sounds plausible that the padding-challenged might be more vulnerable to breakage

It's not a matter of not mentioning.  It's a matter of lying on a form that I put my signature to.  I'm not willing to do that.
They do ask the question and you have to check "yes" or "no"

The Parrot

John got a parrot as a gift. The parrot had a bad attitude and an even
worse vocabulary. Every word out of the bird's mouth was rude,
obnoxious and laced with profanity. John tried and tried to change the
bird's attitude by consistently saying only polite words, playing soft
music and anything else he could think of to "clean up" the bird's
vocabulary. Finally, John was fed up and he yelled at the parrot. The
parrot yelled back. John shook the parrot but the parrot got angrier
and even ruder. In desperation, John threw up his hands; he grabbed
the bird and put him in the freezer. For a few minutes the parrot
squawked and kicked and screamed. Then suddenly there was total quiet.
Not a peep was heard for over a minute. Fearing that he'd hurt the
parrot, John quickly opened the door to the freezer. The parrot calmly
stepped out onto John's outstretched arms and said "I believe I may
have offended you with my rude language and actions. I'm sincerely
remo rseful for my inappropriate transgressions and I fully intend to
do everything I can to correct my rude and unforgivable behavior."
John was stunned at the change in the bird's attitude. He was about to
ask the parrot what had made such a dramatic change in his behavior,
when the bird continued, "May I ask what the turkey did?"

I have a friendly wager with a friend of mine regarding osteoporosis &
whatnot.

The US consumes far more calcium in food or dietary supplements but their
bodies contain far less than those in other countries who do not consume
very much.  I'm guessing there are other factors at hand which either
prevent the calcium from being processed & absorbed or is causing it to be
leeched.

I get out plenty and do purchase food from several types of grocery stores.
I think you misunderstood.  There are actually a fair number of towns &
cities who are not permitting Walmart, SuperTarget, Meijer, et al. to set up
tents.  My mother lives in a city of ~15k people and it's been understood
everyone is unified against any of the big boys to conduct business because
of the effect(s) those types of business would have on preexisting
businesses which are doing well on the part of local folks.  One of the
tactics I heard about there and have read about since is they will bring in
a scaled-back operation so they aren't "overwhelming" the status quo.  So
far, that's been, "no, thanks."  The issue of price competition is one
thing, the other is once they've got their foot in the door, it's easier for
them to ramp up to a larger size (on one or more cycles) than it is to come
in all at once.  Those businesses are climbing all over each other to put
stores in where the county has 30k-50k people at most except during the
summer when the "lakers" come in and the population doubles. When the big
stores have requested town meetings, people have asked why all of these
stores are so gung-ho to compete against each other for no more of a
consumer base than those numbers.  The most common response is, "We just
want to provide consumers with the best offers possible."  It's been said
people attending those meetings smell something and it's not a pie warming
in the oven to be served after those meetings.

I'm not talking about the food in the grocery areas.  I'm talking about the
food they are cooking and selling (on the spot) as though they are a
cafeteria|restaurant. That's why I made mention of things such as sandwiches
and hotdogs at Kwik-e-Marts.  Those hot dogs could be sitting there for
days, if not weeks.  I don't think I'd even purchase them and offer them to
my dogs, even as much as they like hot dogs. I had a black schnauzer named
Keokee who had an iron-clad stomach and would even eat habeneros but I
wouldn't inflict that type of food on her.  Now, we've got CiCi's pizza and
Golden Corral. CiCi's is three or four doors down from the large supermarket
down the street and promotes itself as an "all you can eat buffet". I went
in there once to see what it was like. They gave me a sample and I had to
excuse myself to find a trashcan outside.  Golden Corral seems to need the
slogan, "Home of the gristleburger".  Low price / high volume has its place
and sometimes it doesn't.  Then again, I'm sitting & thinking about this
stuff with a methadone hangover|rebound so all food smelled|tasted|thought
of is pretty gross at the moment - the headphones have to come off when the
tv has a food ad on.  As soon as someone comes in and tests my code, I'm on
holiday.

What was really scary, one of the Philly radio stations was advertising a
turkey drop. I am not sure of the details.

So you wouldn't find "Ritual Sacrifice for Dummies" to be funny?

In catching up by spot-checking, I noticed there were comments about
discrepancies for distancies.  There was a story on Slashdot sometime during
November which stated how a lot of MapQuest's (et alia) data comes from:
brute force - people driving around.

I was going to stop at that, but I made a quick check at Slashdot - here's
the link:

http://slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=03/11/06/1822251&mode=thread&tid=187

"TechTV has an interesting story about the company that builds the mapping
technology behind popular map services like Mapquest. The company,
Navigation Technologies, is decidedly low-tech in its approach to making its
maps: two people in a car drive around endlessly, inputting street
information and landmarks into databases. Navtech's map databases are used
in everything from Garmin GPS units to Alpine in-dash auto navigation
systems. So next time you turn the wrong way down a one-way street, know
that there are real people behind the controls."

There are hyperlinks in the text which I didn't include but are available at
the link I posted above.

No, but the fact 0C is ice and 0F is -18C, I don't think one would need a
mnemonic to know it's plenty cold. And if "20's nice" and you're talking
about -18C, that should give some type of indication.

My boss just handed me the following:

"from the pen of Aaron McGruder:

"In this time of war against Osama Bin Laden and the Taliban regime may we
be thankful that <our> leader isnt' the spoiled son of a powerful politician
 from a wealthy oil family who is supported by religious fundamentalists,
 operates through clandestine organizations, has no respect for the
 democractic electoral process, bombs innocents, and uses war to deny
 people their civil rights." Oh, man!

Did you drop it from a plane?

When I think of turkeys, I remember hiking in Nagano with a student,
and coming out of the woods into a clearing, and suddenly, there was a
turkey pen in front of us. This was the largest, most perfect turkey I
have ever seen, and its presence was unaccountable, since at that time,
Japanese people did not eat turkey and you could not buy it in the
stores.

When I had Thanksgiving turkey in Japan, they were flown in at
outrageous prices by airline personnel.

Who is -off- today (meaning: "not at a place of employment")?

My "institution" gives three days off for Thanksgiving, but John's gives two
(he took vacation for the week, of course). I took the two-day week off
myself. I gave my Tuesday night class the evening off for good behavior ...

My next (and last) semester here I will be teaching a full load over in
English and Philosophy and will leave my campus professional-staff gig. Good
riddance!

Just chillin' here ...

You're right. I think that's key for me, that the context is that

I get about one of this a week - have for months. I think the cure is
simple - people need to be reminded that if it sounds too good to be
true, it almost certainlty is not true. Hit the "d" key!

I've been in  the room when physicians struggled to put them back in.  Such
a relief when it pops back!

I put an elbow back in place once just positioning it.

BTW, did anyone notice how <cheesy>, fake and scripted the part looked when Sandra was spying on Jon and Burton. Reminded me of the filming on a 1970s daytime soap opera (I don't know if filming on soap operas have improved since). There's no way they wouldn't have noticed her there.

I thought that most of the time they popped in like that.

My little finger had to be done by the dr., though. I don't think he'd
ever done one, and it was made more complicated by the fact that it
was broken.

Bonnie, if you starting drawing checks issued by the Social Security
Administration while you are still working, your current wages and
immediately past wages increase the monthly amount to which you are/were
entitled. SSA periodically ups the monthly ante and also pays a catch-up
amount. In December, I will get a check containing both my increased
monthly amount and also the additional amount I was due Jan - Oct of this
year based on my 2002 wages, which were not previously figured in the
formula. (But I will not be paid interest on the Jan-Oct amount.) And in
January, I will also get a COLA raise - about 2% this year. Next
November, I will get another <raise> and catch-up amount based on my 2003
wages - and it will be paid in December of 2004. SSA is always behind on
these.

Interesting.  I'm a big fan of Galois.  I also got to meet and interact with
Paul Erdos several times starting with high school.

I took enough pure maths to come within about two classes shy of a degree
but just did it as a hobby to eat up some free time. The chairman of the
dept used to watch people to see which type of paper they used in various
courses.  When his pets used lined paper it really seemed to hurt his
feelings.

You're quite welcome. It's still rare to do both. It became possible only
in January 2001, I think - or was it 2002?

I was only a math major for two years as an undergrad.  I started as a
chemistry major but got disgusted that experiments seemed to hinge on how
clean the test tubes were.  I switched to history and found it tedious.  I
became a math major and utterly loved it.  But then I left the convent, had
to earn my own living, lost lots of credits by transferring from a Catholic
college to a state university, and decided to take the shortest route to a
Bachelor Degree by switching my major from math to philosophy.  Other
things happened.  I now have a PhD in philosophy, concentrating in Medical
Ethics, with which I've done very little but think lofty thoughts.

LOL - thanks! The author of that piece of ignorance also praises CBS for
filling the whole in the much needed "theodrama" genre which "Touched By An
Angel" left and "Joan of Arcadia" filled.

It's not a false premise.  I skewed it high for a buffer. The assertion was
that the only people who would be worthy of an All-Star series would be
previous winners.  That's why I said, "Seven? Eight?"  That would definitely
be too few.  If it's five, that's even smaller.  It's not illogical.

We already heard that Rupert and Jerry (two non-winners) are going to be on it. I bet Colleen also shows up, and probably that advertising person from Oregon (or somewhere up in the Northwest). I'll bet they picked the most contentious people. I hope Rob comes back! He was such an entertaining jerk.

Since my blood is very similar to yours, I agree. Except that it could be a pain in the ass if we become pregnant with our Rh+ husband.

I remember when the editors loved to see authors write "depress the mouse".
Someone drew a picture of a mouse crying with a cord running out of it and
underneath it said, "depress the mouse".

There are currently -- I think -- four of them. The original is a gritty little place on Bleecker Street. Then there's another on 63rd (?) off of First Ave on the Upper East Side, a <grand> one built in an old church on 44th Street in the Theater District (where a Wordsler event once occurred), and another (and this one may have closed according to my sources) near Lincoln Center.

You don't need to get the sausage, but you'd be wise to. It's the best sausage -- from Faicco's Pork Shop, also on Bleecker Street. But I've seen other pizzas eaten. My Newfie friends were quite happy with their sundried tomato and basil pizza.

Yes, this is similar to the finds in Norway - maybe we have something in common.

Okay, so we're on series number what? Seven? Eight?  Well, that'll make a
great All-Star series. Eight people.

Anything they do would be worthwhile if they would do what they'd claimed
they'd do in the current series:  "no help".  Yet they're given money to go
to town and are given an inflatable raft as well.  If they're going to
survive, provide no water, no tools [at all], take away the razor the women
are obviously using to shave their legs, and let's see how they do.

I really think everyone understands the "All-Stars" are a group they believe
will have the best or most interesting chemistry.  That's the only reason
Jerri "The Blue Bikini" can be invited back (she had no other merits).

What will be interesting is Wednesday evening - "The most deceptive act
ever"  "Someone wins immunity and has it taken back."  Let's hope it's not
something taken out of context to pump up the ratings because we're entering
the end of sweeps.

Jeeze! The Dell Foundation donated 10,000 turkeys to the Capital Food

I wish I had had this for Natalie and Kay's croning ceremony back
in '93:

   ....the crone--that sapient, intractable, quintessentially
post-hormonal female
   who until some centuries ago was universally looked upon as a
principal
    repository of memory and wisdom, and still enjoys that role
in much of the
    "less" developed world.  My crones boisterously interrupted,
opined, and
    vociferated to promote their desires and commands...

This is from a 2/26/96 Women's Issue of The New Yorker, an
article on the history of Hormone Replacement Theory by Francine
du Plessix Gray.  It's being read as part of my General Detritus
Cleanup Project.

Please forgive me for singling you out. I apologize. I did it because it
has seemed very important to you that you get COLA raises re your pension
now that you are retired. I will try to remember not to single you out

Well, I have had only limited time with him, but I'd say he has a quiet,
 but definite, sense of humor. He certainly finds our antics amusing, at
least!

What more do you want to know? He's an electrical engineer by training,
but a network administrator for something - perhaps an ISP? by profession.
He grew up in a small town, has married siblings, and parents who have met
my daughter already. He's tall, blond, and bald, and looks like a young
mountain. He is a dance instructor for SCA, in Munich, as well as an
archer, and plays the recorder. Now you know just about everything I know.

Speaking of which, attentive readers

Jazz the IVF African Wildcat and his

Those kids at the Audubon Institute

I <get> Miles, but who's Otis?

Here's what I read about it:
 
Lottery Scam Warnings
There seems to be lots of scam emails doing the rounds which tell you that you have won a jackpot prize in a fake lottery. 
You'll find links to examples of these emails (below) published without the writers' permission, in the hope that awareness will, somewhere along the line, save somebody from being parted with their savings. Users who responded to their emails have been asked to send €5,625 as a "service fee" to receive their 'winnings'. If you pay that money you then receive another letter, claiming to be from the Gaming Board of Great Britain, and with a forged signature of a board member, asking for €20,000. 
So far, at least 180 people who have lost their €5,000 - please don't let the next one be you!!
On a serious side, many people are asking us what can be done about this. The sad fact is that there are so many scams that the authorities can not chase them all. The Metropolitan Police have established a resource to assist in combating specific types of high value fraud, which include a contact email address.
If you receive any of the emails or direct mailings mentioned below, we recommend that you delete them and make your friends and colleagues aware of their existence. Do NOT reply to them and DO NOT complete their online claim forms.

NOTE: the actual text of emails varies, as do the so-called 'winning numbers', the prize values and name of companies involved. Some variations ask you to complete an emailed or online claim form at a url like "linkfinanceandtrustltd.com" which forwards to anonymous pages on MSN. Others ask you to fill the form in and fax it to them. DO NOT complete the form as you will be giving away personal information to the scamsters.
As a somewhat humorous aside, we received one of these emails addressed to "Dear Sales" (email address: sales@lottery) informing us that we were one of six lucky winners of £2.5 million. The scammer had, however, used CC in their email instead of BCC and you could see that the same email had been sent to several hundred people all with email addresses beginning with the letter "s"!

You should be in fine form for talking to Brandon, the WonderBaby!:)

I like watching wild turkeys fly.

There was just a piece on the news about people bowling with turkeys.

I meant that there is nothing else necessary.  Sounds like a keeper.  It's
great when you like who your children choose to be with.

I just wrote this in a login failure page: "Please check the possible
reasons below to see if you can correct the problem. To try again, click
your browser's 'refresh' button."

Since it's viewed in a web browser, "web" seemed redundant.

I've never heard of anyone, paying into Social Security, who got a check
from them and called it a cost of living increase.  In my experience, it's
a one way thing.  You pay into the SSA.  If for some reason you overpay,
then you have to apply to get a refund when you fill out our your annual
IRS stuff.  Even when you are of age to receive Social Security payments,
you don't get extra checks.  So I don't know what the hell Bethany is
talking about and I'm amazed that Natalie does.  Must be some kind of
arcane academic thing.

Yes, that's why Dell is moving business technical support back to the

The vegetarian / anti-cow's-milk folks blame too much protein.  See

http://www.vrg.org/nutrition/calcium.htm
scroll down to "The Influence of Excessive Protein"

http://www.rawvegan.com/bone_disease.html
goes further explaining the presumed biochemistry, and includes one of the
commonly-quoted examples: "Inuit Eskimos consume 3500 milligrams of calcium
each day, and by age 40 are crippled."

I would hate to have curly hair.

Can you get barbershop haircuts?

My mother has curly hair - she usually cuts her own. It usually looks
quite good - for curly hair.

Practically anything can happen where spam is involved.  To try to avoid
Bayesian filters (neural network), they'll add conversations, short essays
(in the HTML comments), etc. to make it appear there are more words or a
higher percentage of words spelled correctly.  For a long time they'd salt
the <subject:> with lots of spaces followed by a lot of gibberish, then
they'd add a lot of gibberish because filters really didn't know what to do.
Now, filters have grown smart enough to spot things such as "vi,g-r^a" so
they've reverted back to emulating regular email.  Another technique which
isn't used much is to send a single graphic as almost the entire message -
just enough HTML to handle if they click on the graphic.  Then there's no
text to analyze - it's all displayed on the embedded graphic.

Our bloodsuckers have taken to showing you the number and asking if that is

Habeas is having its problems these days.  They licensed some known spammers
and weren't too quick to cut them off.  Like many e-businesses, the dangling
carrot of revenue|profitability provided too much for them to turn away,
even if it had a negative impact upon their reputation.

They also terminated their CEO [recently] and are now kind of drifting in
the water, rudderless.

Most of the people in the "anti" (as in "antispam") world trust Habeas about
as far as they can throw Bill Gates' money if it were pennies stuffed in one
big sack.  Habeas is in the same boat as TrustE, the DMA, and Tropica.

Not spam.  Spam usually doesn't have conversations in it.

Also, you can find Tom in Yahoo Groups, where his profile is "tom_sai_yuk"
and his real email address starts with "wordwrite@a..."

You should write back and say they've got his address wrong.

You see, there it is - the qualification.  My son

Pete:

You're probably right; neither the
newspaper article nor the zoo's web
site has anything to say.

My angle was an "Otis" that yells
JAZZ in the same way that "Miles"
does, and I think of Otis Redding
as a soul singer more than a jazz
singer.  But hey -- who wants to
genre-ize Otis Redding?

The new white rhino, by the way, is
named Satchmo ("He can't wait to get
his horn").

I don't know anything about extra ss checks, but then my only experience
was in being the official caretaker (can't remember the right term now)
of my mother's ss checks.  Iow, I got the mail related to them and had
to fill out forms, etc.  The checks themselves were automatically
deposited.  I do know that she was about to get a ss "raise" -- to be in
effect the month after she died.  But there were no extra checks.  When
Bethany mentioned COLA, I thought she meant things like the raises that
occur.  I wasn't paying close attention and didn't notice the thing
about "extra checks."

it is within the realm of possibility that she (and

BB, 'fess up.

Crone is not synonymous with witch, but that mental

I think ours have done that at times.  It sounds familiar.  Yesterday
was a new bunch of employees perhaps.  Bloodsuckers seem to be
short-lived.

Where did you read annoyance into that?  I was in no way annoyed.

Fwiw, it was on this <service> that I first heard the expression COLA.
That suggests to me that somebody else must have mentioned it.  I
thought it was some kind of drink until learning here what it meant.

I'm amazed by your -- what's the right term? -- your paranoia?  your
defensiveness?  "Reasonable" in this kind of context usually is
interpreted as something like "it is
typical/understandable/notunusual/etc that most people would think x
amount about y."  I can see how a literalist might think it means that
somebody who thinks x+5 amount about y has passed the "reasonable"
category and is thus "unreasonable."  I suggest that you observe
sometime the normal use of language.

Re why I think you have an intense interest in money:  About every
posting of yours that isn't about praying is about money and about how
you are going to <negotiate> to get whoever to reduce whatever cost by
whatever amount so that you can invest whatever and reap great benefits
because of whatever.

I can't find it online, but there was a kid's movie named Miles and Otis.

Tell him you have being trying to reach him, to make

Cool.

I will, as usual, be politically incorrect in the morning and be present
at the opening meet of the Tennessee Valley Hunt. We are having a catered
breakfast and, after the (probably abbreviated) hunt, a catered luncheon.

And rain.

Happy Thanksgiving, all.

Yes, I drink lots of water plus lots of other watery things.

Y'all have been mightily loquacious today.  I'm late getting online
because it's been a long, busy day, including finding out while in
Tupelo that the person in the hospital there is not likely to regain
consciousness for several months.  And her husband seems determined to
sit there in the ICU waiting room for all those months.  I'm very glad I
went since he seems very much appreciative of visitors.  But the
situation is extremely depressing.

???  No time to pursue this question right now since I have to go to the
kitchen and find something to eat before Survivor starts -- the
something to eat being from Wmart, I might add -- whatever it is (don't
know yet what it will be).  But you indeed did assert something about my
groceries yesterday -- something like amazement at how I could've bought
food from Wmart.  When I asked why you thought Wmart's food was toxic,
you replied with the above re the battles against Wmart's opening in
certain towns.  I am aware of those battles but don't remember that they
ever involved "save us from toxicity!"

They are not actually extra checks - the additional amount of money owed
is added to an upcoming check - so in Dec. I will get the new amount plus
the additional I would have received if I had received the new amount
Jan-Oct.

I think I need Living in "3100 Square Feet for Dummies."

Last night and this morning, I thought my heating system was kaput. When I
left home yesterday morning (and it was pretty cold), I turned the heat
off (both systems). By the time I got home 12 hours later the temp in the
condo was down close to 60.

I turned the heat on and turned the thermostats to just below 70. It never
got above 65 last night or this morning.

I decided to try one more thing - leave the heat on while I was gone
today. That worked. By the time I got home, the condo was cozy. It just
takes a few hours to move the temp up in this much space.

        Very much "on" as the game tomorrow is our homecoming, and we
had much chaos today (and Saturday we play a team from out
Sylvia's way for the State Championship).  Did luck out and
get supervision of the alum during the pep rally.  They
weren't too rowdy.

        I'm sipping a rum and coke at the moment getting in the right
frame of mind to begin baking.

I wondered about this too.  The information I was
given leads me to believe that females can draw SS at
age 62, but in 2001, that age increased by two months
per year.  Thus, in 2003, Natalie would be 60
(almost), and have two years and four months to go
before being eligible to receive SS benefits.  I
therefore assumed that she was receiving her MSU
pension, and was anticipating the added SS income in
2+ years.

Am I misinterpreting the SSA guidelines?

Female or male makes no difference in this guideline.  It is true that
someone born in 1945 or 1944 has to wait until age 65 and two months to get
full SS benefits.  However, they can still take early (a reduced amount for
life) payments at age 62.  Not 62 and two months.  Or at least that is my
understanding.

A widow (and I assume a widower) can draw SS on the deceased spouse at age
60.

One thing I've never seen addressed is whether a person drawing on the SS
of a spouse, who started drawing the reduced amount at age 62, could wait
until age 65 and get a larger amount.

I remember obnoxious Rob -- and of course Rupert.  But I have no memory

No problem with baby #1.  But a possible pain in the ass (or is it the

Yes, but I know there is something about increments of
2 months per year, because I recall trying to figure
where that would leave me, and discussing it with the
City Clerk when we were notified arbor the changes.

This is a really good question.  Have we no CPA meebers?

Thanks.  I'm filiing your message in my "travel" file.  But I bet these
are places that lone travelers don't feel comfortable in.  That is an
important consideration to me.  I like to eat in places where I feel
welcome and not anamolous.

Opus is the penguin that started in Bloom County, went to Outland,
and now has his own strip.

And Milo Bloom was one of the main characters in Bloom County;
I remember his Thanksgiving prayer in regards to the turkey giving
its life so that they may eat.  It ended with both his family throwing
both him and the turkey outside.

Bloom County helped me a lot when I broke my ankle and had to
spend two months in a wheelchair.  Cutter John had a wheelchair
that the characters in the strip would pretend was the Enterprise,
with Opus as Spock.

Some of the questions do seem odd to me -- like "Do you have AIDS?"  Do
they really think that somebody is going to say, "Yes, sure I do."

"Miles and Otis" (or vice versa) was the name of a
kids' documentary-style movie featuring the haps and
mishaps of a cat and dog together in the wild.

Then there is the elevator inventor, and Cornelia
Skinner's mother, I presume.

You asked for info regarding impoundments of your
friend's vehicle.  You probably already know the
answers by now.  Be forewarned that policies may vary
from jurisdiction to jurisdiction.

  If Starkville PD impounded the car in order to
investigate the cause and/or details of the accident,
the car may only be impounded for a relatively short
time.  I suspect that Starkville PD has its own
impoundment  facility.  If so, they may charge the
car's owner for daily storage, based on a schedule of
nominal rates. There will also probably be a "wrecker"
service charge.  If not, the car would have been towed
to the yard of the "rotation" wrecker service, in
which case a wrecker fee and storage fee will be
charged by the wrecker service.

If the vehicle has been impounded pending
investigation of any criminal activity that may have
contributed to the accident (driving while impaired,
etc., you know, the usual suspect offenses), the owner
may not have to pay storage fees.  That expense is
considered part of a prosecutable investigation.

City of Birmingham used to have a racket going with
one wrecker service and garage only.  The wrecker
service yard was not secured, and no competitive bids
were requested for the service before award of the
contract.  The garage was called Kemp's.  That ended
years ago, be should have ended years before.

I am also curious as to the reason for such a long
unconscious state of your colleague.  Perhaps it is a
medically induced coma?

Yay!  I'm glad to find another meeber who prefers thin and crispy.  That

        We have a great Opus story book that spoofs the children's
classics (Goodnight Moon, etc.) by "departing the text"
while Granny snoozes (in verse).  Lots of fun.  Time to read
it again.  We just several babies born among staff members.
  I wonder if I can find some copies to give as gifts.

I applaud you for that.  Not because of blood in particular.  Just the
general principle.  I mightily dislike lying.

Ask him whether he knows any Kurvins in the Munich area -- my friend
Chuck or his offspring.  Chuck is also an EE by training (and still by

I thought it was a bit odd -- like tonight's following/spying.  But I'm
not sure that it was impossible.  They're tired, the spying thing hasn't

Not if you had attended The Croning of '93, with Brad as MC.  There were
some pictures of it online until the old list picture gallery got lost.

She's right in her correction.  It was "Milo and Otis"
and narrated by someone whose voice I know, but cannot
now remember.
My impression is that it was made overseas, though.

"Homeward Bound" and "The Incredible Journey" are
similar in content, but not the same.

I don't think females are any different from males in the SS eyes, are
they?  And I don't think that the age 62 option has changed, though I'm
not positive of that.  I do know that the full ss benefits have moved up
in age.  It used to be 65.  For me it's 66.

Correct.   Or correct in general.  I am indeed 60 in 2003.  I haven't
counted the months until ss, though I guess I could do so -- I will turn
62 in March 2005.  This is too much trouble to think about right now.
It's been a long day.  Don't really care much at the moment when I will
start getting ss checks.

It was speaking of Osten, I was.  He's the one who, in

Thank you.  I thought I was losing my mind.  I gather
that several of us are in this 1943 - 1954 time wedge?

?  I guess I should look again, though it really doesn't matter since
I've concluded that going on and doing it at 62 makes sense.  But I do
think that what you wrote above is erroneous.  I was born in 1943 and
have to be age 66 to get full ss benefits.

But if you are intent on spying, or being spied upon,
why not just look where the cameras are pointed?  And
how do you ever forget that the cameras are looking at you?

This is very tough. I'm glad you went too. He may not sit there the whole

My boss and I did this together a while ago.  We got 80% right.
I'm thinking we are good at recognizing geeks, and it must have
been that some of the killers were geeks too.

A short summary for the lost:

Natalie bought hot tamales at Walmart, gave blood and got woozy.
In spin off threads, other people got woozy or passed out, and
drinking lots of fluids was mentioned.
Phil was amazed that Natalie bought food at Walmart, but was
referring specifically to the ready to eat treats, and not the
groceries.
Since Natalie brought the hot tamales home and nuked them they
were possibly groceries and not ready to eat treats.

Michael J. Fox did "Homeward Bound: The Incredible Journey" and "Homeward

Odd coincidence: Fox was the voice of "Milo" in Disney's Atlantis.

I haven't heard any more about the car, papers, and gradebook.  I forgot
to ask our secretaries yesterday morning whether they knew, and now
everybody is on vacation until Monday.

It seems really wrong somehow to think of the car's owner being charged
when any investigation would be involving the guilt of the other
person.  The truck ran a stoplight, and supposedly the investigation has
to do with the degree of his guilt -- how fast he was going, his trying
to stop, etc. etc.  (That's hear-say -- not a police statement.)

No, it is not medically induced.  It was at first, but they have stopped
all sedation.  According to her husband, there are some tears on the
"mid-brain" in such a place that the doctors say it is usual for the
patient to stay unconscious while the brain is "mending itself."

I'm intrigued by these associations of pizza styles with places.  Surely
most places offer a choice in styles -- most geographical locales, I
mean, not necessarily a specific pizza-seller.

I'm probably the leader of this pack.  Or are there meebers who were
born between January 1 and March 16 of 1943?

Dan Lester, I think -- in answer to the question I just asked.  I think
maybe he was born in February 1943.  Ken Wolman perhaps also.

I wonder how many cameras there are -- like are all the people always
under surveillance, with then a gigantic pile of film to be edited, or
does a single camera person roam around at random, or what?  I would
think that if there were very many cameras going at the same time, it
would be difficult to film without accidentally getting other cameras in
the picture.

I barely know him -- hadn't seen him in years until yesterday, but he
made me feel like a very close friend.  That is part of why I think he
does appreciate visitors.

Speaking of my colleagues, there's a cute picture and great story about
the daughter of one of my colleagues on the Harvard main webpage today.
I don't know how long it will stay there, but for now if you go to
http://www.harvard.edu/ and click on the picture on the right of a boy
and girl, you get to the story.  It's about their work at a homeless
shelter.

I do need to poke around and see whether I still have any of the croning

It's a rainy day here -- hard rain overnight, just drizzly and yucky
now.  I was planning on looking at the webcam today to see whether TWD
is hanging out with the football fans on the drillfield, but I bet not
many fans are hanging out there in this yucky weather -- and the webcam
is probably covered with raindrops.  It's not cold.  Just wet.

I'm sure there is more than one camera.  These people are
professionals.  They wouldn't get another camera in the shot.  I wonder
when Jeff gets to see the footage.  Each night?  I wonder when he found out
about Jon's BIG lie.  What incredible hustzpa that guy has.  I wonder if
the other contestants will find out about his lie before the show is
over.  Maybe they all learned about it just last night.

I had a moment of thinking that it was going to come out at tribal
council last night -- something about the way Jeff looked when he
brought up the subject of Jon's grandmother.  I was looking forward to
the reactions if he (Jeff) had announced the lie, but then I guess
that's not how it works -- Jeff wouldn't have.  But he no doubt knew
about it by then, thus the look on his face and the tone of voice -- or
maybe I was just imagining it.

I'm watching the tape of Survivor now, and I have to say that NOT
knowing that it was fake, I could tell something was up. His buddy is
not a good actor. (If I'd been on the show, I don't think I could
necessarily have told, but being an observer, it was more obvious.)

Was it Jon who said that it was to be either the friend or his
grandmother, or did Jeff say that?  That's what I was wondering about --
about what happened if they called the grandmother.  As you say, it's
unlikely that she would come to an island and walk the plank, etc.  But
what I'm interested in is the process -- like how she was eliminated
exactly if he had in fact turned in both names.

Something just occurred to me.  How do the organizers know who to call
to bring for a surprise visit like this?  Do the participants provide
the names in advance -- like before the show starts -- as a
just-in-case-we-do-something-like-this thing?  If so, how would Jon's
ruse have worked?  It was said that if his grandmother could come,
that's who it would be -- that the friend was second in line.  So if
they called the grandmother, did she say she was dead?  Or maybe she
said she was too sick to come.

The way he spoke about her--his tone. Dismissive and derogatory.

QED. He's a turd.

Right.  As I said, it's the procedure I was wondering about.  Why do you
think he doesn't like his grandmother?  He said she would fully
appreciate the ruse, which made me think she was like him.  Or maybe he
in fact said that she was like him.

Back to these matters.  I haven't explored this website's main page.
Perhaps it provides explanations about where the info comes from.  Does
the long form of the census ask questions like how long it takes you to
get to work?  What percent of the population does the long form?  I've
always wanted to but have never been privileged with that opportunity.

> > http://www.city-data.com/city/Starkville-Mississippi.html

And I notice also the ancestries given:

*********************************************
Races in Starkville:

                         White Non-Hispanic (64.0%)
                         Black (30.0%)
                         Chinese (1.9%)
                         Hispanic (1.3%)
                         Two or more races (0.8%)
                         Other race (0.6%)
                         Asian Indian (0.6%)
                         Other Asian (0.5%)

(Total can be greater than 100% because Hispanics could be counted in
other races)

Ancestries: United States (9.2%), Irish (9.1%), English (8.6%), German
(8.0%), Scotch-Irish (4.1%), Scottish (2.7%).
***********************************************

Why are only Eurpean ancestries given?  I checked some other towns and
found African ancestries included.  Does "United States" mean American
Indian, or is it a category for people who don't know their ancestry
back farther than the US?  Does the long form of the census ask about
ancestry?  How many USAers do you think know their ancestry -- or at
least know it in detail?  (By "in detail" I mean something more specific
than "European."  E.g., I think it was a pretty safe assumption on my
part to say I was of European ancestry even before I got into
genealogy.)  And do these percentages mean that the people claiming such
ancestry are claiming to be 100% whatever it is?  I can see how that is
likely with recent immigrants or possibly with earlier immigrants who
have stuck together in an area of a city, not mingling much with
outsiders.  But I would guess that most of us are hodge-podges -- and
that most people whose families have been in this country for hundreds
of years don't know all the details of our hodge-podginess.

        I don't know.  Most privately owned places around here make
the St. Louis style (ultra thin crust, provel cheese --
whatever that is, etc.).  A few places advertise "New York
Style," which I like, and of course the chains all do their
own styles.

        Near my parents' house is a place called Spencer's that makes
the ultimate pizza, imo.  Small, thinnish crispy crust (but
not paper thin like around here), good, non-goopy cheese,
and they lace it for you -- burn it around the edges.  The
shrimp and garlic pizza is unbelievable.  The pizzas
themselves are also smaller in diameter, so the slices are
the right size for your hand and you don't lose the toppings
to droop-drop.

Nice name.

That thinness sounds better to me than paper-thin.

That sounds like my kind of pizza.  Shrimp is the only dead animal I
like on pizzas (unless we have determined that pepperoni is dead animal
-- I remember that that was once discussed here, but I don't remember
the conclusion).

One of these days (nights) I'm going to try the supposedly exquisite
pizza that City Bagel does on Wednesday nights.

Yes--Jon said that he'd given them two names, his buddy and his
grandmother.

I suspect that his grandmother (whom he clearly doesn't like) doesn't
leave the house much, let alone to the Phillippines. And who would
have wanted to make his grandmother walk the plank or eat worms?! Not
good viewing.

My guess would be that the contestant does indeed name a person to be
brought on to the show if they do that segment, which they always
have.  Jon named his friend and then set this up with his friend.  When he
said he was either his friend or his grandma who would come, that was
probably just another lie.  Anyway, they've never send someone's grandma to
an island to walk the plank and jump into the ocean.

This type of synopsis should be required reading in a
thread of this length, questionable degree of
importance, and considerable confusion. It is
well-stated, inclusive, and admirably worded.  Thank
you from the often thread-impaired meeber.

Good job!  Certainly don't appear to me to be

I had hoped to see TWD show up on the webcam, but I bet I know where he
is instead.  I bet he's over near all the RVs and tailgaters, no doubt
getting all kinds of good things to eat.  I bet he's enjoying the day in
spite of the ugly weather.

I hope so.

Speaking of dogs, I think I've found Daisy.  There was a picture
in the Tulsa World showing a white-and-tan Lab named Daisy
with a couple of girls at a library.  This Daisy is a service dog
who tours libraries in a children's program.  I would have gone
to that library, but the buses don't go that far south. :)  I'm
going to check on my next day off if that Daisy is my Daisy.

And maybe find fair shelter under the trucks, etc.
Perhaps TWD's legend has been heard in Oxford, and the
tail-gaiters will be generous with goodies.  In fact,
he may pick up some tidbits about the Animal Shelters
across the state.  TWD and cohorts may become the
first  venture capitalists to significantly benefit
Animal Shelters in Miss.
And you knew him WHEN!

How common is the name Limbaugh?  Rush may be my cousin.  I just
discovered that the half sister of my great-grandmother married a

Why were we discussing it back in '91 or so?  What was the conclusion
reached?  I remember saying that it was the only meat I liked on pizza,
and somebody said it wasn't really meat exactly.  I don't remember what
was said about it.

Question marks don't to me indicate confusion.  I was asking how Phil
could say that when he had said I had bought toxic food at Wmart and
when asked about it came back with the thing about the battles against
Wmart in some places.

How long ago was it that Daisy moved away?  Would she have had time to
become a library service dog by now?  It would be fun to discover her

I don't think he's likely to wander way over to that part of campus.
The one-game reservers (the fans of opponents) have their
RV/tailgate/tent space way over by the vet school.  I don't think it's
intended as an insult to them or to keep the fans separated so they
won't have fights.  It's just that people pay by the year for the spaces
closer to the stadium (and one-time visitors aren't like to buy a RV
parking slot for the entire season).

That's just as well since I would worry about TWD if I thought he was
very close to Ole Miss fans.  They might do something <bad> to him.

I doubt that enough time has elapsed for your Daisy to
have received all the training necessary, but what a
great idea!  Even if she's not your Daisy, she could
put out the word that Your Daisy is missed and loved.
I'll bet Your Daisy is destined for a great job like
that when she's an adult.  You gave her the magic
touch.

Pepperoni is basically ground pork shoulder (with the fat) and
spices/seasonings, put in a casing and (probably) air dried or dried at low
temperature.  Meat, it definitely is.

I'm wondering still why that question arose and what we talked about
back whenever.  It certainly seems dead-animal-like to me.

I'm not at all confused about the fact that we had this conversation a
number of years ago.  I just don't remember what all was said.  I'm
surprised that you, being into food, don't remember.

I hate what's called "sausage" when listed as a pizza ingredient.  But
in my experience what's listed as "sausage" isn't pepperoni.  Pepperoni
is listed as "pepperoni."  It tastes nothing at all to me like the
ingredient named sausage (which I would never order but have on occasion
eaten when with other people who made the decision).

They come by the carloads around here, but the name is
often pronounced "Limbarr", even by the name-owners.
Suggests a New English influence, but that's hard to
figure.

I would never remember anyone having doubts about whether pepperoni is
meat--that's just mutant.

Pepperoni is just that---a prepared and cured sausage that is sliced for
placement on pizzas, much like salami or any of the other cured sausages
are.  The "sausage" you usually get on a pizza is pork sausage cooked with
spices and seasonings.  The difference is in the curing time before the
product is marketed.

I used to make sausage balls for my pizza by mixing fresh herbs and garlic
with fresh ground pork, then sauteeing them and freezing them until it was
pizza time.

It's true that he is pretty savvy.  But one should never feel secure
around Ole Miss fans, of which there are no doubt many in town right
now.  Who else would be going to this game on a drizzly night when
there's also a home basketball game?

Well, somebody did have those doubts.  I don't remember who.  All I
remember was mentioning that pepperoni was the only meat topping I liked
on pizza, and somebody got into the topic of what pepperoni was exactly
and whether it would be called meat.

Well, yes.  But that doesn't change the fact that in my own experience,
pepperoni has always been called pepperoni on pizzas -- that "sausage"
means something other than pepperoni (in my pizza world).

Indeed.  The chicken under a brick turned out well, the sweet potatoes were
good, the sourdough rolls were very good, as was the cranberry jello salad,
and the asparagus gratin was decent.

I think that's generally true. But if you buy it in the store, the pkg
usually says 'pepperoni sausage'.

I always check as to what, exactly, they are talking about when they
say 'sausage'. Some places are explicit about labeling it either Italian
sausage (which is the only kind I like) or... I don't know what they
call it. Sometimes breakfast sausage, sometimes pork sausage.

I just say no to it, which means I don't need to check.  My favorite
pizzas are vegetarian, though I do like pepperoni at times -- and shrimp
at times.  But most often I would choose something like mushroom, green
pepper, and onion.

This conversation is making me hungry for pizza.

My memory is that it wasn't a joke -- that it was some kind of
discussion of the nature of pepperoni.  I didn't pay much attention to
the details, just remember that it came up.

Hope everyone had a good Thanksgiving.

I worked at the kitchen this morning where I was on stuffing duty.
Each batch of stuffing started with *18* (eighteen) pounds of
butter!!! I had never seen that much butter in one pan before.
I made 5 or 6 batches, I lost track after a while. It was hectic
but everything went off well and we served an amazing quantity
of food. Everything looked and smelt great.The chefs there
are talented and superbly organized.

I met friends for dinner later and a good time was had by all.

My shoulders and back are going to be so sore tomorrow...

Well, everybody's gotta be some place...

It's a Tuscan recipe.  You take a whole chicken, rip the backbone out, and
then flatten the breastbone.  You mix up very finely chopped rosemary,
sage, garlic, kosher salt, and a little olive oil and slather the bird with
this (having first rinsed and dried the bird).  Then you put the bird, open
side down, over hot coals.  You flatten the bird with a brick (not having
access to the large, square, Tuscan tile bricks, I use a cast-iron frying
pan with a goodly-sized hunk of granite in it).  When the first side is
nicely browned (on the verge of black), you turn the bird over, breast-side
down, replace the brick/pan and broil until done.  It helps if you have a
charcoal grill that has a fairly tight-fitting lid, but it isn't
necessary---at the cooking school, he had a small grill set up in the large
fireplace and used live coals from the outdoor brick oven.  The whole
process takes a half hour, maybe 45 minutes.

What the brick/pan does is keep the natural moisture in the bird, which
accelerates cooking and results in a chicken with crisp skin and very moist
meat---the whole thing nicely seasoned with sage, rosemary, and garlic.

I can't remember now what the point of it is -- that your modem can't be
zapped by lightning?  Maybe I'll think about that someday.  Meanwhile,
though, the thunder seems to have subsided.  The rain is pouring but
without <accompaniment>.  I wonder if there's anybody left at the fb
game.  I should go look at the electric teevee again and see.

Kitchen activities are for the most part appalling.  I liked liver (was
my favorite childhood dead-animal dish) until I first saw it
pre-cooked.  Gag at the thought of it now.  I've deskinned chicken parts
before, when making chicken dishes for dinner guests.  Although I've
managed to do it, I have indeed found it horrendously disgusting.
(Fortunately, grocery stores now sell skinless chicken parts.)  I really
don't like having dead animals in my kitchen at all.  And I'm talking
aesthetics here, not morals.  (I am content when somebody else, out of
my view, has bricked the chicken or gutted the fish or whatever.)

But back to the fun part.  Maybe one could put a Dubya mask on the
bricked chicken before smashing it.  Sort of like that website I thought
Verdant might like.

I don't get your point at all.  (Iow, I am now confused.  I never said
that I was never confused.  I am indeed sometimes confused.  It's just
that I wasn't confused about things people have suggested that I was
confused about.  And it was not I who said that pepperoni wasn't meat.
It tastes/smells/seems quite meaty to me.)

Karen said you were posting confused when you said, "unless we have
determined that pepperoni is dead animal".  That quote is not
confusion.  That quote is typical-for-Natalie.   My point was
that I couldn't remember what we usually call that.  That is not
typical for steph.

Never mind.  This is getting too complicated and too boring.  Since
we're into summaries:  Somebody said some number of years ago when I
mentioned pepperoni as the only meat I liked on pizza that it was not
necessary meat.  A discussion ensued, which I don't remember the details
of.  I can't remember what the discussion (which I was not part of other
than having been the catylist since I had no idea what pepperoni was
made of, though it struck me as unlikely that dead animals weren't
involved) determined.  My vague memory is that it was determined that it
was something like semi-meat.

Ok, so Natalie is typically stupid.  I don't have any problem with
that.  That's not why I said that I'm finding this discussion boring.
I'm finding it boring because frankly I don't much the fuck care what
Wordslers determined pepperoni to be back whenever this discussion
occurred.  I am not a vegetarian and therefore can happily eat
pepperoni.  But I will readily admit that I am stupid/mutant/whatever
for not having remembered the precise resolution of that earlier
discussion.

Not machinery.  There is a definite methodology, which I've never bothered
to learn, so that things remain as much as possible in one piece.  Sort of
a combination of anatomy and topology.   It also takes very good
cutlery.  I remember seeing, some years ago now, a demonstration by a
Chinese chef of deboning a chicken.  From what I remember, it took a fair
amount of manipulation and relatively few knife strokes.

I find that peperoni is easily recognizable, by its
shape and its packaging.  Is is certainly "sausage",
as it had no former life as a walking-around critter.
The pepperonis of this world will not reproduce spontaneously.

It's not the lack of remembering the conversation that I find
mutant--it's the original premise.

Some people don't think sausage is meat because it has so much crap in
it--that's why I said that saying it wasn't meat was a joke.

I've tried for years to figure out what it meant.  First it seemed to
mean not watching much tv or knowing names of movie stars.  Then
somebody said no, that that was not at all what it meant.  So all I've
been able to figure out since then is that it means stupid.

?  I don't know what you mean by "the original premise."

I don't remember who said it first or how the discussion went.  As I
said, I wasn't involved in it since I really had nothing to say on the
subject.  I do remember that there was a discussion and that it didn't
seem like a joke.  It was something like the bean-pea discussions.

No, it wasn't.  I realize now that my statement was misleading.  I ate
Cheerios for breakfast, with banana slices on top, then ate the bagel
with cream cheese for lunch, and tonight I ate some cheese and lettuce.

My food decisions today had nothing to do with attitudes toward
turkeys.  I ate whatever was convenient.

It helps to have heavy duty kitchen shears, and even a
knife that hunters might use on deer.  Be sure every
blade is sharp, sharp, sharp; and be careful, it's a
jungle out there in the chicken yard.

I left the electric teevee running and went back in there to find that
it's now 24-0.  Still not so bad for the end of the first half.  But
then we're usually worse in the second half.  I doubt very much that it
will end with just double the first-half score.  I'm guessing in the
60s-0.  Poor Jackie.  Poor players, especially seniors.  But how
appropriate that they're out there slogging around in pouring rain for
their goodbye.  I think everybody around here is very happy that fb
season is now over.

I thoroughly enjoyed the bagel and cream cheese that I ate today.  No
dead animals necessary for a happy Thanksgiving.  If I had had some
pepperoni on hand, I could've sprinkled it on the cream cheese, of
course.  But I've never thought of pepperoni as something you could buy
in a store.  And I can of course sleep more easily tonight knowing that
no animals died today as a result of my feasting -- but then the cows
that gave the milk for my cream cheese might have been abused.  Surely
Bethany can give me insight into the proper prayers on this occasion.

What do you think Jackie has done wrong?  I'm not talking about
castrating bulls, etc. I mean what do you think he has done the past
couple of years to cause MSU to plummet.  The decline started when Wayne
Madkin was our quarterback, and the word was that the other players
didn't like him.  There was great hope for Kevin Fant, since supposedly
the players liked him (and since supposedly he was good -- he was
heavily recruited).  What exactly did Jackie do to turn it all into
shit?

Maybe when I'm feeling especially rich I will explore getting one.  For
now, unplugging seems to work quite well.

You found raw fish less repulsive?  I feel that way, though I found it
hard to eat fish for a while after wandering around the fish market in
Tokyo.  As I think I mentioned before, guidebooks say that that's a
great time to stop somewhere nearby for sushi -- after walking through
all the fish slime.  I found that not at all my reaction.

Possibly he could pass his jail term (if convicted, of

How could it be standard?  Here, to most people, it is
an unknown acronym.  MOST people do not listen to
classical music, nor are they interested in the other
features offered by NPR.  MOST people you know share
many of your interests and philosophies, so they
probably do listen.  There are also 100's of
commercial radio stations out there that MOST people
listen to, and a lot of NPR listeners probably do not
listen to NPR exclusively.

And I will add insult to injury (not for the first
time) by saying that NPR has a definite liberal bias,
which please its listeners and "turns off" some of its
potential listeners.

If MOST people did listen and appreciate NPR, the
affiliates wouldn't have to run those embarrassing,
intrusive, and boring fund raisers twice a year.

I originally became a vegetarian because I had to cube a huge amount
of beef for a family (only 8 of us, but that's still a lot of red,
bloody beef) dinner. I stopped being a vegetarian because of raw fish.

Note that I said "most people I know."  I know Alan.  I have no idea
what most people I don't know do or don't listen to.

That I wasn't aware of.  (I listen to it whenever I'm in my car, which
isn't usually for long enough periods of time to be an expert on it.)

I don't get this part.  It's not pay-per-listen.  The number of ears
pointed toward it doesn't affect its budget if they don't contribute.
But then I guess people do tend to contribute to causes they
appreciate.  (And I'd say that quite a few people around here do
contribute since those little Beethoven-head stickers are on lots and
lots and lots of cars I see everyday -- and those are only the people
who decide to put the stickers on their cars -- I never have.)

UPS's are hardly a luxury item, but it's good that you don't mind
having your computer life dictated by the whims of the weather, then.

Has 'Alan been to Europe?

I know lots of NPR listeners--but I also know lots of non-NPR
listeners. Do you think your RRB listens to NPR?

They might not be a luxury item for a business -- as in some place where
turning off the computer in a thunderstorm might be impossible or highly
impractical.  But for an ordinary person like me I would say they're
non-essential.

Do they work 100%?  I'm not sure I would feel confident of its ability.
When everything is unplugged, I feel <secure>.

Lots of NPR stations offer no classical music. The station I listened
to in the BA didn't, and the one here doesn't.

This is silly. "Listening to" and "paying for" are not the same thing.

I don't know.  Have most NPR listeners been to Europe?

I have no idea what my RRB listens to.  It would seem reasonable to
conclude that he turns on the car radio, and it seems reasonable to
conclude that NPR would be a logical setting for its dial, but I don't
really know.  They seem to spend lots of their driving time talking on
telephones -- they've done that for years -- were the first people I
ever heard of with car phones.  But when I talk about "people I know," I
tend to be referring to people I'm around regularly -- friends and
acquaintances, not people like my RRB&SIL, whom I have had a
<connection> with but otherwise wouldn't know and whom I haven't seen or
heard from in many months now.

Are those the only two categories of objects, essential and luxury?

Ah.  I guess I was being paranoid.  That was somebody else's premise
(brought up by me in the recent thread as an allusion -- as we often
allude to old Words-L matters).

I would say so.  If it's non-essential, it's extra -- something you
choose to indulge yourself with -- a luxury.

I don't think necessarily MOST, but a good percentage--at least 40$.

Well, I'd be very surprised if NPR is one of the settings on his

Interestingly, I'm just like  you.  Clyde rips the back out of the chicken
out of my sight.  And he brings my portion of the chicken to the table in
non-recognizable parts, as in sliced breast meat.  I avert my eyes as he
chows down the legs and the wings, veins in this teeth.

We have our computers and our TV plugged into surge protectors.  But if I
ever lived in the Southeast again (which I most assuredly will not), I
would still turn off a computer during one of those thunderstorms that go
on for an hour and involve many, many lightning hits.  I would also stay
off the phone.  I have seen what happens when lightning enters the house
through the phone line.

Which reminds me to ask, have you ever used your DVD player again after
that initial use?

Home Depot, of all places, has an incredible deal today on a Magnavox 19
inch TV/DVD/VCR combo for a mere $179.  I'm tempted for the upstairs
bedroom.  But I don't think I will.

For awhile, a number of years ago, the Maine NPR stations (they are all one
station actually) decided to stop playing classical music.  That's when we,
and many others, stopped listening to them and started listing to WBACH.

I have conclusive evidence that non-liberals don't listen to NPR:  at my
stitch'n'bitch this week we talked about Prairie Home Companion and Car
Talk.  The ultra-conservative woman in the group knew nothing about either
one.  The ultra-liberal in the group could quote chapter and verse of both
shows.  I fell some place in between.  For example, I didn't know about the
Detective Noir part of Prairie Home Companion.

Among your S&B companions, you have conclusive proof. I, for instance, don't

I know almost nothing about Prairie Home Companion.  It must come on at
a time I'm not likely to be in my car.  I started to say that I've never
heard it at all, but I think that's not true.  I have a very vague
memory of hearing a man talking in a sort of soupy voice about Lake
Woebegone.  It's definitely not among my regular catches on NPR,
though.  My regulars are snippets of Morning Edition, All Things
Considered, Car Talk, that thing right after Car Talk that I never can
remember the name of (Michael Feldman?  What Do You Know?), From the
Top, and music.

I would not live anywhere that did not have NPR. But I also think that I
listen to it simply because it beats the heck out of all the alternatives.
Only NPR has news + commentary (including the reading of letters from
listeners who object to NPR's occasional liberal bias) + entertainment
+ jazz + classical music + opera + announcements of local arts events.

You can plug a phone into many UPS's. And the point of a UPS is not
that it protects from surges as much as it allows graceful shutdown
of a computer. But I think the surge protection you get from a UPS is
greater than from a common or garden variety surge protector--that's
just an opinion, based on no evidence.

Not all NPR stations have music; the one in the BA doesn't have any
music at all. The one here, as one might expect, has a large variety
of excellent music shows. Many of the people who have the shows are
musicians themselves. No opera, no classical music except
incidentally, very little jazz.

He inherited the team that the Pittsburg alumni bought for Johnny Majors
(he got the job when Johnny went home to Tennessee, which is closer to the
Jack Daniels distillery).  After that stream of talent ran out, he went to
Texas A&M, which ended up on NCAA probation.  He had to leave there but MSU
was sufficiently desperate to hire him.  The bull trick was simply another
manifestation.  Everywhere he goes, he leaves a slime trail.

        I don't think "most" people listen to NPR.  There's a
demographic.  I'm sure somebody has pinpointed that
demographic, but it includes avid readers I'm pretty sure.

        I listen to NPR in my kitchen.  Sometimes I send them money.
   I haven't in a couple of years, though.  I'm a
freeloader.  I figure I fork over plenty thousands of
dollars to UMSL every year at this point in my life, and I
don't wish to send them any more.

        You should have brought Spencer here.  He could have split
the giblets with Vinnie.  I made about 7x more food than we
could eat.  I plan to use the Southern Living recipe for
creamed chicken later today to make creamed turkey over
biscuits for dinner.

Ah yes.  He is not a <nice man>.  I think I've mentioned before that
when he was about to be hired here, there was a Faculty Senate vote on a
resolution against hiring crooked coaches.  I voted against the
resolution, not because I was pro-Jackie but because I thought such a
resolution was silly -- that we would need then to pass resolutions
against hiring crooked provosts or crooked anybodys.  I was reading your
"no sympathy" as something having to do with his responsibility in the
disaster our fb team has become.

I don't know about your station, but most of the support for my local
station comes from business contributions. (Over 80% IIRC.) I suspect
that many of those business owners see NPR as a good cause, and maybe
good for business, but don't listen to it.

I forgot to name things like Sound and Spirit when naming things I
sometimes hear on PRM.  I also like hearing snippets of interviews with
music-related people at times.

Mainly, however, I am unhappy right now that cold wind is blowing
wildly.  I am not feeling enthusiastic about standing in front of Wmart
ringing a bell in cold wind.  I am also not happy that my second shift
has been moved up an hour, meaning instead of the two-hour break from
11-1, I'll now have just 12-1.  Wmart is about as far from my house as
two different points in Starkville can be from each other, so I'd rather
have more time to come home and then go back.  (I don't mean it will
take an hour in the coming and going.  I just mean I'd rather have a bit
more leftover time.)

And since my name is involved in this, let me once again point out that
I have not said that "most" people listen to NPR.  I said that most
people *I know* do.  We are <of a demographic>.

I know lots of people who only serve their animals the appropriate
food. And I know other people who cook for their animals, which I find
quite odd. Me, I'm just glad to have a competent plate-cleaner.
Someone pointed out to me that Burl's fondness for spices may be why
she doesn't have fleas.

I don't know what you mean by the Southern 'ah' -- do you mean [a] for
[aI]?  (And note that I am using the real IPA symbol [a] -- not the
sound that's represented by the small hand-written letter a.  Iow, I'm
talking about monophthongal [aI], which for most people is not the "ah"
sound of "father.")

But that doesn't have anything to do with 'flat i,' iiuc.  I don't think
'flat i' is about the [aI] or [a] sounds.  I think it's about [I] -- the
vowel sound in "it."  But it's not about vowel-raising before nasals --
not about tin/ten.  It's a lowering/loosening in other words.  I think.
But I am not in this business anymore and thus am not to be regarded as
knowing what I'm talking about.  And now I have to log off and get ready
to go out in the cold wind.  Winter sux.

Good grief!  Why don't you just donate a bunch of money instead. I often
wondered if the money in the pot went where it was supposed to anyway. I
don't like these bell ringers out there trying to make me feel guilty,
although I do have my favorite one that I give to. He really enjoys his
time ringing the bell.

Does one celebrate by going out to buy, buy, buy?  Is it called Black
Friday because that is the day that the merchants go into the black?

Excellent point.  I don't believe the per centage is
that high here, but it is certainly substantial.

I can't give you chapter and verse on SA collections
and the application thereof, but my husband works for
the Salvation Army Corps in Anniston, AL.  The portion
that goes for aid and relief is substantial in
comparison with other charities, indeed, in without
comparison.  It is probably the best regulated such
organization.  And I'm not saying that because th
works for them.  He works for them, because of that.

That is good to hear.  Maybe I'll be more generous.  I heard once that the
bell collectors themselves kept half of their pot collection.

to run the thing. But I have never run such an organization, so I would
not know.

Oops.  I went and bought and bought and bought.  Maybe I'll get points for
the fact that I didn't charge anything. And I dropped all my change in the
Salvation Army bucket in front of WalMart in honor of Natalie.

I don't know exactly.  I never turn on the radio to listen to something
in particular -- I listen to whatever happens to be on when I'm in my

listening to identifies itself as "Sound and Spirit" -- chants, rituals,
folk tales from <exotic> places, etc.

He likes everything.  He's had people food at times, especially when we
visited my mother in Huntsville.  I don't have any rule against giving
him scraps -- it's just that I almost never have any.  And he was
getting a bit hefty for a while, which made me start being careful of
amounts of dogfood and limited dog biscuits to one tiny one in the
morning and one medium-sized one at night.

What he really wants right now is to go for a walk.  He's giving me that
look.  But I can't stand the thought of going back into that cold wind
after being almost comatose upon returning from my second stint of
bell-ringing.  The wind kept blowing the kettle and holder over.  My
hands and feet were numb, and I could barely talk to the person who came
for the next shift since my speech was slurred.  As I think I've said
before, winter sux.

Not being an SA <insider>, I don't know how the accounting works, but it
is my belief that it does go where it is supposed to.  I think the SA is
a good organization.

I didn't make anybody feel guilty.  I didn't speak until spoken to and
didn't stare at people in anticipation of their giving.  After all, the
kettle sits there every day for about a month, meaning that people
probably pass that one kettle alone over and over and over again.  I
don't give every time I pass it.

Brr.  My brrr-ing has nothing to do with what you wrote.  It's just that
I let Spencer hoodwink me into taking him for a walk in the wind -- a
VERY, VERY short one, though.  Anyway, I'm thawing again.

Re PBS, I don't know about public radio in Alabama since my driving
routine in Hville was to listen to an oldies station.  But public
television in Alabama seems to be a nightmare of fund-raising -- people
are standing there begging for money every time you turn it on.  I

Wmart must have had a major sale going today on Apex 27" tv sets.
During my first shift, I saw at least ten of them coming out.  And I was
at the grocery entrance.  The other entrance probably had even more
tv-traffic.  On my later shift I don't think I saw any.  They must've
sold out.  Or maybe it was a moring-only sale.  On the second shift I
saw lots of 20" flat-screened somethings -- brand name something like
Symphony.

One way to compare charities' administrative cut is to check out their
financials via the ICA - if they're involved in Federal Campaigns.

<http://www.independentcharities.org/>
You can search by categories or by keywords, then check out the financial
statements.

What's that publication that evaluates charities?  We've discussed it
here before -- it's what made me quit giving to the Humane Society of
the US.  Actually, I had already figured out that the HSUS was spending
way, way too much on gifts to donors or potential donors.  I haven't
given anything to them in ages now but am still getting mugs and
t-shirts and stuff from them in the mail regularly.

Very good!  I bet you were at the Wmart where I bought a phone card last
summer.  I think I bought something else that day but can't remember
what now.  This was after exiting BH to find the road to Canada.

The wind is the problem here.  Without it, things wouldn't be so bad.
It's still raging.

I have been reading about espresso pods for a few mnoths - they are little
wrapped espresso packets, ready to go. I found some this week and bought
them today. As soon as I got home, I brewed up a cap - or tried to. The
damned pods make light brown water.

Has anyone else used them?

Jeans, a long-sleeved t-shirt with a turtleneck shirt under it, socks,
and Birkenstock Arizonas.  I should've worn my bonniesox.  The ones I
wore (and am still wearing) weren't very warm.

I received a note today that concluded thus (all numbers changed to
protect the guilty):

(M) (888) 123-4567
(F) (888) 789-4567

I had no idea what (M) and (F) stood for. I asked and was told Mobile and
FAX.

Has anyone else run into that? It seems crazy to me. FAX is always FAX
(or fax or Fax) - and I never call a telephone a mobile phone. I call it a
cell phone.

'mobile' sounds very European to me--but it's what *my* cell phone
calls other people's cell phone numbers, mobile numbers. So I am not
fazed. I think I could figure out F instead of fax.

I've heard cell phones called mobile phones, but I don't know that I
would have figured out what M and F meant.  In fact, until I read on and
got to where you told us, I was thinking of things like Monday or Friday
calling only, with different phone numbers for those different days, or
males call one number and females another.  Mobile and Fax had not
entered my mind.

Meanwhile, though, since you are still <in the field>, did what I
hurriedly wrote in reply to Karen before rushing out into the raging
winds this morning make sense -- about "flat i"?  It's not a term I ever
<did anything> with -- i.e., it's not something I was intimate with even
when I was <in the field>.  (And I was never majorly into phonology.)

Well, no wonder you were cold.  You didn't wear any kind of wind
breaker.  You should have worn your leather jacket, wool socks, and real
shoes.  Even jeans aren't a very good choice in wind, unless you wear
pantyhose under them.

You haven't seen my PS yet -- adding that I did dig out a jacket to
wear.

Egads!  I would have felt like a stuffed animal.  What would be warmer
than jeans?  And super egads at the idea of pantyhouse.  How horribly
unpleasant.  One reason I wear skirts less often in winter than in
summer is the hose thing.  Re shoes, I was just prompted to order some
more clogs -- did it about an hour ago.  I need some brown ones since my
only brown ones (actually taupe) are the ones that live out in my
storage building and are covered with sevin dust and whatever -- are
generally quite nasty.  So I just ordered some dark brown ones from
birkenstockcentral.com since I had a 10% discount coupon.  I didn't
order from that nice German place this time because I wanted them to get
here pretty soon.  I will, however, order from the nice German place
again.

Well, I have fleece-lined jeans.  But I don't suppose you would buy those
for the few days a winter when the cold winds whip around your legs.

I don't wear panty hose either.  But I do have some black wool tights that
would have come in handy under your jeans today.

Jeans are the warmest pants I have - other than my dressy all-wool slacks,
which I would not wear to, say, the barn. What would be warmer?

Darnit.  I just went to birkenstockcentral to show y'all my newly
ordered shoes, and I discovered that I could have gotten "burnished
leather" for the same price -- and I like the way it looks.  But I
didn't notice that with my frozen brain.  So these ordinary leather ones
are the ones I ordered:

        They have some tempting shoes.  I like my mocha Bostons the
best of all my Birks.  We have our very own Birk store now
-- I get a discount for buying so many pair there ;).

I have some flannel pajama bottoms that I have used as long-johns before
during cold-weather bicycling (many years ago).  But I really didn't
realize how cold that wind was going to be.  When I first got there this
morning, it didn't seem all that bad, but then the sun moved, as is its
wont, the shade was upon me, and the wind kicked up.  It got worse on my
second shift.  But it wasn't really my legs that felt cold.  The parts
of my body that were going numb were hands, feet, and face.  (I noticed
that the person who came to replace me at the end of my second shift had
gloves.)

God, bunch of warm weather, no nothing idiots.  I'm leaving the room.  But

Yes.  In Japan.  There was a store across the street from where I lived
that had lots of Eccos.  But the ones I tried on didn't feel
comfortable.  Feet are odd.  Some brands that are super comfortable to
some people aren't to others.

        Yes.  My students often comment on my choice in footwear.
I'm astonished at what they will notice.  I wore a pair of
non-Birks once this year, and somebody in every one of my
classes commented.  My feet were killing me by the end of
the day.

I may answer my own question. I would probably wear jeans and a
full-length outback coat. But bonnie's rsponses sounded to me like she
thinks there is something one wears INSTEAD of jeans.

(To me warmth definitely has something to do with wind.)

Didn't we talk about "comfortable shoes" here in '91 or so?  I'm almost
sure somebody mentioned it here because that's when I first caught on
that something somebody had said (in my ftf life) back in the late '80s
about a new dean was probably intended as <significant>.  I was in
France and had met a friend from here on a train somewhere in
Switzerland (that was a funny story).  Anyway, while we were together,
she had a phone conversation with her husband, who was in Italy at the
time, and he said that all he had heard about this new dean was that
"she wears comfortable shoes."  When she got off the phone, she said to
me, "What a very weird observation."  I agreed.  Then several years
later, somebody here on Words-L said that that was a <code>.

But we're back to syllogisms.  I love wearing comfortable shoes.  Iow,
everybody who loves comfortable shoes isn't a lesbian.  (But do all
lesbians love wearing comfortable shoes?)

        I ride in jeans during the winter.  When I was a kid, we'd
wear either flannel lined jeans or we'd wear two pairs at
the same time.  They have some interesting fabrics now that
probably would layer well with jeans to cut the wind factor
-- but since I'll be riding mostly in an indoor arena, I'm
not that worried about it.

Another excellent point.  You have to be willing to
sit through all the local affiliate stuff in order to
get to the basically good national programming.  I
haven't a clue as to how they choose the personnel
they do for fund raising at WBHM, but they are truly
awful.  I have often wondered if other regions are so
bad.

        Chaps are great for riding.  On the wish-list.  This shit is
expensive, and I'm buying for two this time around.  Ana is
getting a nice children's grooming kit for Christmas.  She
still can't reach most of the pony to brush him, but at
least she'll have equipment that fits her little hands.

        Snow pants aren't good for riding -- you can't feel the horse
under you.  Contrary to appearance, most steering is done
through the seat and legs, not the reins. But I most
certainly did have snow pants as a kid, you betcha.

I don't wear chaps. If I did, I would not wear them over blue jeans or
for riding. I wear britches for riding - with tall boots or half-chaps.

And I do not ride in an inside arena. I occasionally ride in a ring - but
it is open to the elements.

I remember getting *very* strange looks from students in Meridian when I
wore my first Birks in 1980.  I don't remember strange looks on our main
campus, even though I do think that Birks were quite rare here then.

Yeah, I know.  I still don't like the guy.  But it did take a little
something to pull off that visit.  Some risk involved. I think it was a
good thing to do.

        Nylon shell with some sort of thermal stuffing.  Every New
England child has a pair, which were likely inherited from
an older sibling or cousin and will be passed on to the next
in line.  They typically come in ugly shades of pink, green,
and blue.  Sometimes they are quilted.  One doesn't so much
walk when wearing them as do a very noisy swish-swish
half-waddle/toddle.

?  I don't get this.  What does blaming have to do with anything?  My
point was that it's quite easy in Netscape 4.7 to click on the menu item
that opens an image by itself.  And that makes it easy to copy the url
and send the image url to somebody you want to see that picture.  That
can't be done in IE (whatever version I have).  You would either have to
view the source to find the direct url, or you would have to save the
image and screw around with putting it back on the web to send the url
for it.

So exactly what do you mean about workmen and tools here?

Yes.  And excellent PR.  Karl Rove is tallying the votes already.

>What are snow pants (as in what are they made out of)?
>  -- Natalie

I'm not really sure.  This was back in the 1950s, before some of the
synthetic things we have now.  I guess they were a nylon shell with much
padding.  The shell shed snow.   You could get them wet in the snow without
the wet coming through to your tender young skin.  I think we wore some
kind of pants underneath them because I remember my mother holding down the
inner pants while the snow pants were pulled over them.  Then
galoshes.  Happy memories.

I bought a wreath today and a kissing ball and a dining room table
centerpiece.  I love the little place where I went.  It is a big dirt lot
with Christmas trees and simple wreaths made up.  Then there is the shack
with the wood stove.  The shack reminded me of the warming shack where I
ice skated as a child.  The warming shack had wood floors that couldn't be
hurt much by our ice skate blades.  The stove was in the middle.  Wooden
benches around the sides.  Some nice but strange old man tended the
fire.  I wish I could remember his name.

I'm trying to remember a movie scene I've seen that involves that kind
of clothing -- something funny with little people waddling around going
swish-swish.  Thanks for the description.

I think it was good since I'm sure the troops appreciated it.  But I do
not for a minute think it was his idea or that it was done to be
"nice."  Nor do I think there was all that much danger involved in his
bubbled sneak-in/sneak-out.  (And I don't mean to suggest that it was
bad for it to be a bubbled sneak-in/sneak-out.  It would have been
disastrous in many ways if he had been hurt or killed.)

Very common for me, and when I put my phone number in outgoing
correspondence, I label it "mobile" instead of "cell."

I would judge "mobile" to be associated more with multi-nationality,
although some people also use it in preference to "cellular" because
cellular denotes a particular technology.

E.g., "PCS (Personal Communication Services): Used to describe a newer
class of wireless communications services recently authorized by the FCC.
PCS systems use a different radio frequency (the 1.9 GHz band) than
cellular phones and generally use all digital technology for transmission
and reception."

I am reminded again of the time my brother and some of the other
neighborhood boys told me I should ice-skate (in my galoshes) on the
frozen creek, which of course had only a thin film of ice.  I naturally
got soaked, and my mother made me stay inside while my wet clothes dried
over the floor furnace.  It was not as if those were the only clothes I
possessed -- I think it was a <lesson>.  (The reason they had to dry
over the floor furnace was that we had no electricity for ten days
during that ice storm.  It was a glorious time -- for children, at
least.)

I was thinking when looking at my neighbor's xmas tree earlier tonight
that maybe I should get out my xmas decorations this year (in addition
to the wreath, which I will put on the door tomorrow).  But then I
started thinking why bother.  I've decided that I'm not having a xmas
party this year, so there's really not much point.

I understand that people might feel that way, but I just don't get it.

If I were a grunt employed to ride around in a Humvee on Iraqi roads
looking for improvised explosive devices, or a dad spending Thanksgiving
day mourning the loss of a kid blown up by an IED, I'd be hard-pressed to
appreciate the "risk" involved for the president in pulling the stunt off.

Aw, c'mon, it was great for troop morale, made for wonderful pictures,
had the teevee hairdos acting like he parachuted into Baghdad, has
liberals fuming - it's win, win , win any way you look at it.

Plus he beat Hillary to Baghdad - way to go, POTUS!

Both of my USB ports seem to be bad. Is there an inexpensive way to
install new ports? Like, can I just go to Fry's and buy a USB port or
two?

You're blaming IE because it doesn't work like Netscape. That's silly.

Well, I don't know what version of IE you have, obviously. In IE 6.0,
I just right-click, click on properties, and copy the image URL into
my e-mail.

You can add an expansion card with USB ports on it, for example:
http://shop4.outpost.com/product/3754546

(Didn't shop, just picked a reasonable one as an example.)

One doesn't generally replace just the port parts of USB ports -- the back
end of them is probably wired to the motherboard.

I don't have experience with installing new USB ports, but depending what's
wrong with the old ones, you might get IRQ or USB controller conflicts or
other nastiness with the new card, too.  USB controllers are a hardware
device in Settings/Control Panel/System/Device Manager or Add/Remove
Hardware.  You may end up fiddling with things there.

Thanks, that's what I was thinking of. I remember I added a serial
port to another case a long time ago.

Yes.

Thanks. I just got e-mail from a friend who says she thinks she has an
unused USB card. YaY!

I hate computers. I hate knitting. I hate TV.

Most years it is only Clyde and me who see our Christmas tree and interior
decorations.  But it is well worth the bother to me.  I like to look at
them.  I like all the memories as I  hang up the ornaments that I've
collected over the years.  I like the quiet house and the pretty lights.

I managed BREAK THE YARN this afternoon--this really thick stuff. So
then I switched stitches to something else, which is really a pain to
knit, but not to the point of breaking the yarn. But my fingers were
sore.

The movie version of Gene Shepherd's childhood
Christmas, about BB guns, etc.  Peter Billingsley is
in it and Darren McGavin.  It shows up on your
electric teevee each year about this time.

Sorry, but I still don't get your workman/blame point.  I find Netscape
more convenient because I can click on "view image" and see the image --
see what it looks like -- and can then easily copy the url if I want to
send it to somebody.  My IE doesn't offer that option.  I call it a
matter of preferring Netscape's feature.  Sort of like you prefer a
refrigerator with an ice-maker.  I hadn't thought of you as exactly
<blaming> other refrigerators, but that's ok if that's how you look at
it.  But what do workmen have to do with it?

I just checked on my IE version:  6.0.2800.1106.xpsp2.030422-1633IC.
Right-clicking and going to properties does not enable me to see the
image by itself, nor does it allow me to copy that url.  I must have a
mutant version of IE.

Beats me, unless it has something to do with devices that draw
their power through the USB port. Pete will know.

I bet Pete also can tell me what OST is. Seems to be some sort of
video format.

As little children, we had snow suits in PA; and our
mittens or gloves were clipped to our snow coat
sleeves, which made them impossible to lose, but also
well nigh impossible to get off or on.  As we got
older, we graduated to "leggings".  We had to wait for
the school bus at the top of a slight hill, and if one
of us toppled over, he/she rolled in a bundle down the
hill until someone or something stopped us.  Name
labels were sewn inside every piece of cold weather
clothing.  It took about twenty minutes each to get us
undressed or dressed in the "cloak room".

        No.  Missourians would never say "No sah."  I thought
britches were old-fashioned kid pants "don't get too big for
your britches."   The only google references I've found are
for diaper covers/toddler panty thingies. I've never seen or
heard it as a synonym for breeches or jods.

You must. I can copy the URL into the address space at the top of the
screen, or into e-mail like this:
http://www.cigarusb.com/images/back.jpg.

I may have copied the URL from R to L instead of L to R, but that
shouldn't make a difference.

        Further googling has turned up a pretty little flower called
Dutchman's Britches and a Lesbian Theatre group called the
Split Britches, which dovetails nicely with the shoe thread,
giving us a fuller picture of what Lesbians wear.

I do remember really, really loving some xmas trees in my early
adulthood.  I remember buying a small one my first year in Florida and
adoring it, even though I was gone for most of the holidays.  I also
remember the one I got the first year I was single again after being
married.  I loved decorating that tree.  My husband had been adamantly
opposed to any recognition of xmas and so of course we never had a xmas
tree.  I did end up having a xmas party that year -- the forerunner of
my later big parties.  I had it on Dec. 23.  Loved it.  Have some great
pictures of it.  (My ex-husband attended, in spite of his disapproval of
xmas.)  Maybe I should consider getting a xmas tree this year.  But
where to put one is sort of a problem.  Year before last I put it where
the tv set is and moved the tv set into a closet.  But that's when I had
the tv set on a rolling table.  Its current table doesn't roll, and I
might also want to watch tv at some point.

Will ponder these matters.

Thanks, but I don't think so. If I'm offered a movie on DVD or OST,
what will I be getting if I choose OST?

Our sixth-grade classrooms had "cloak rooms."  That's where we changed
clothes on Class Day (aka Graduation -- from elementary school), taking
off our fancy white attire and putting on our clothes for the picnic.
Or at least that's where the girls changed clothes.  We showed off our
new bras, since that was the ritualistic date for getting one's first
bra.  I'm trying to remember now where the boys changed clothes.  Or
maybe we did it in shifts.  We also hung our coats on hooks in the cloak
room in winter.  (But what did we do in the earlier grades??  Where did
we put our coats when we didn't have cloak rooms?  Only those sixth
grade rooms had them.  I need to consult with old classmates on this
matter.)

Here we are in our sixth-grade Class Day attire:

Yes!  I think that's it.  I watched that movie one year because it
seemed to be considered a xmas classic, though I had no memory of it at

Hmm.  I meant mutant in relation to what Karen said her version did.  My
version doesn't do what her version does.  But I don't see that as
workman blaming tools.  I am quite content with my tools and find that
my workmanship works just fine.

Well, actually until nylon windbreakers came along, jeans were partly useful
because they were tightly woven enough to cut the wind a little. Since
they're cotton, they won't hold warmth when wet as well as wool, but they
are not so bad with wind.

If you don't choose to spend money on fancy weather-specific clothes, jeans
w/ something under (I'd certainly take long johns over pantyhose, though!
seem good to my old-fashioned country mind.

Yes.  My IE is mutant in that the properties box does not allow me to
copy anything.  And there is no way for me to give a quick click to see
the image by itself.  It is obviously my IE version.  But it doesn't
matter since I use Netscape 4.7 most of the time anyway, and it works
fine.

You said "But then I started thinking why bother. I've decided that
I'm not having a xmas party this year, so there's really not much
point."

Eating at a table, decorations, those are things you do for <company>,
but not yourself...

Right.  It strikes me as kind of weird to do things like that alone.
Somehow the word <grotesque> hops into my mind.  Maybe <sad> is better.

Ah yes.  And I remember my mother asking how I could have possibly got so
wet and snowy walking home from school.  I don't remember if I admitted
that Rose Ann and I cut through the woods and the field, jumping into every

Well, it is a fact that a gray box hops up in my IE when I hit
properties and that copying is not possible.  Whether it's special just
for me, I don't know.  But it's the way it is.  What it has to do with
xmas trees, I don't know.  I find your snideness exeedingly tiring,
however, so don't bother to try to explain the connection.

When we were kids, they were made of tight-woven cotton (later nylon) outer
layers to resist water, with quilted and filled linings which made our legs
swish together when we walked and made us flounder trying to stand if we
happened to sit or fall down. Most had suspenders or buttons that attached
them to coats or held them up under coats to minimize "snow belly".

Since girls had to wear skirts to school, there were all sorts of tucking-in
complications to dressing; but with heavy winds, high snowfall, and
sometimes -10+ temps they were a necessity.

I think it's grotesque to let your life be so controlled by the
presence or absence of other people.

That's it, AFAIK.  Hubs don't necessarily provide power, so USB devices
that are bus-powered wouldn't work on them.

You're over-thinking it. :)  "Original SoundTrack."

I have a gray box, too, but yet, I can copy the URL. (I didn't try to
copy anything else.)

It's killing me not to recommend Mozilla or Firebird to replace IE or old
Netscape, so I'll get it off my chest.

Everybody should switch to Mozilla (if you need email) or Firebird (just
web browser):
http://www.mozilla.org/products/mozilla1.x/
http://www.mozilla.org/products/firebird/

Works like IE, except it's better, like Netscape.

Windows users should use the installer version from:
http://seb.mozdev.org/firebird

 From that page, download and run either of:
MozillaFirebird-0.7-setup.exe
MozillaFirebird-webinstall.exe

There. :)

Why?

I would some years, and wouldn't others. Depends on my mood. I do put
up Christmas decorations (like my stocking and my Hello Kitty
Christmas lights).

I guess that's it. Now that I look back at the place I saw it, I
see that make sense. Life is just too simple sometimes.

Belated wishes for a happy weekend.  I'm home
from Florida after 5 days of good food and
quality time with family.

On two hour ride from Omaha airport I watched the
low-riding bright golden moon that looked
like a wide smile . . or maybe a slice of cheese.
It sank behind the horizon very early.

Can't believe it's almost December.

             - D. M.

I think it's sad to think that just because you are alone you can't have a
Christmas tree or set a table and have a special feast of food and
drink.  I know that I would still put up a tree if I was alone.  And I
would make myself a special Thanksgiving or Christmas meal and sit down
with a cloth napkin and fine china to enjoy it all by myself.

No.

They are a kind of pale green, with a slightly funky rib and round
toes. I wanted something relatively fast, and these are knit on 3's.

I started making other socks for him, but they are now going to Paul.
They are turning out to be really fabulous socks--the yarn has
enormous color depth for a 20% wool yarn. But they are knit on 0's, so
they are taking approximately forever. Probably ready for Paul's
birthday.:) I've been on the heel flap of the first sock for the past
6 weeks. (I keep messing up and having to undo 4-6 rows.) Those are
plain, too, but the yarn is really spectacular. I had to funk up
Ligniere's rib because the yarn is pretty flat.

It all evens out...

I use Firebird on my work laptop.  Makes me happy.  I was just

That's why I was surprised.  I do not have Netscape set up for Ra.  (I'm
back in Netscape temporarily since I still haven't fooled with migration
details.  Am looking forward to doing so sometime very soon -- like
within the next hour or so.  Am doing various other things first.)

Good morning! That is probably what I'd do, too, depending upon my mood. It
was nice skipping it all (Christmas decorating) the  year we went to Texas.
I've worked at the Souper Center before but never on Thanksgiving. I'd do
that one year. Several people at work do and good for you, Rashmi.

We missed Tony's birthday!  Hope it was a good one, Tony.

controlling our lives, imo.

Andronico's will do it for you here and you can have left overs.  We didn't

I have not made a decision. I will almost certainly not have a tree (but
I will next year - it's a matter of time this year, since I am still
unpacking boxes), but I may put up lights and arrangements of my
<ornaments>. On the other hand, I have all this ROOM. Maybe I will have a
tree. I used to have an artificial one - I wonder where it is.

Thank you for this report on your research. We may have one or more thesis

And I've never checked out any of them.  I've decided to make myself a Dale
of Norway sweater.  They are elaborate and knit on small needles.  I'll
probably use a size 4 needle to get 6 stitches to the inch.  If I actually
get the Dale of Norway, Helio yarn that my pattern calls for, just the yarn
will cost $100.  It's a four ply sport weight yarn.  I could probably save
myself half that money by substituting a made-in-Maine sport weight
yarn.  The sweater will have these three colors: black, cherry red, natural.

After Christmas I shall devote many months to that sweater, switching on
and off to a very elaborate cable knit sweater of tunic length for a
not-too-tall and somewhat rounded friend.  I think they will both be long
projects.

Much of the American public would have been horrified and would have
shouted out to demand that we nuke the hell of Iraq and, for good measure,
all of the Arab world.  That would be disastrous.

Don't and wouldn't are only alternate spellings of can't.  There was a
motto of some literacy campaign or something similar that said:  "If you
don't read, it's no different from not being able to read."   I agree.

I have a cousin who lost her arm at 14 to cancer - we are the same age, and she
 was staying with us when she found the lump. She learned to do the Heimlich
maneuver 1-handed and saved a small boy from choking in a restautant; and she
also learned to knit by fixing one needle between her toes and crossing her leg
onto her knee.

When my mother's hand (rheumatoid arthritis) was operated on, she was able to
wedge the needle in something set on her lap, and knit that way. Both women
knit in the continental style, with the thread held taut on the "full"
needle, and essentially only one needle that moves a lot.

(PS since I am a lefty, Mom taught me first to knit right-handed and then,
when that didn't take, set me in front of a mirror to learn left-handed; the
result it that I knit in two directions and never have to purl a row!)

This is a date test. I just got a note from the UK that said, among other
things:

>Incidentally there's something amiss with your date identity thingy -
your email was recorded here as dating from 31/12/69<

Yet in my message, which he included, the date was okay. ???

No.  I had seen Carson on two previous occasions.
She's two now, a curly-haired bundle of energy that

Well said, BB.  I must admit, though, that I have found it more amusing
than annoying to have people squawking about how I should do things in
what they consider the <right> way, without seeming to realize that I
happen to prefer my way -- and I can't see that it's selfish to indulge
myself in this in that I can't see how it harms anybody.

I think there are various restaurants here that one can buy Thanksgiving
food from -- as in to take home.  And I still haven't checked out the
place that opened a year or so ago that sells frozen casseroles, etc. --
as in things these two women who own the place have cooked and frozen,
not as in Stouffers or whoever.  I've heard it's pretty good, though I
remember being somewhat put off by the picture accompanying a newspaper
story when it opened -- two fat women standing there holding a
casserole.

So you think you can't eat over the sink or not have a xmas tree?  I
really don't see it that way at all.  I think you can -- that your
choice not to do things my way is something you are choosing, not a
can't do.

T is for telephone (or telefoon).  There's a certain etiquette to
using people's mobile numbers too, so even though you might have
someone's mobile number, you wouldn't necesarily use it.  So
there's always a bit of discussion surrounding all this
information exchange.  But generally, you can always call someone
at their desk (where that T phone would be, unless it's the
switchboard, which it also sometimes is).

I think you've missed the point. Of course, you are free to spend your
holidays and live your life in any way that you choose.  Karen and I have
only been saying what we have been saying because you, yourself, seem to
enjoy decorating for Christmas when there are others to see it.  You,
yourself, seem to enjoy a good meal when there are others to feed it
to.  Thus, we concluded that the decorations and the meals are, in fact,
important and enjoyable to you.  We don't want you to miss out on enjoyable
things just because there is no one to share the joy with.

But I will drop the point because it appears that all the joy is in the
company for you.  I hadn't fully appreciated that.  For me the joy is in
the decorating and the meal itself.

So it would always be a land phone - or a switchboard?

Today? Or Monday? When is it on the newsstand?

I just got my Words-L mail via Mozilla for the first time -- and it
marked every single message as "Junk."  I'm training it that one woman's
junk is another woman's treasure.

Just remembered that I haven't told it a signature yet.  Will do that
later.  Need to go to the p.o. now.

"Special" doesn't mean "fancy".

        I see an "r" in both "breeches" and "britches."  Maybe I'm
hallucinating.

It's a moderately good way to learn. It gives me things to ask about
on Monday/Friday knitting, and makes for some interesting
conversations.

Cool!

I don't think a 4 is particularly small. In any case, I recommend
circulars, out of the most aesthetic material you can find. (Ebony,
rosewood, birch...)

I'm a loose knitter--I'd need a 3 to get 6 to the inch. (But I also
never knit swatches--which is okay because I don't make big projects.)

Is it a Dale of Norway pattern?

I don't see any need to use the yarn they recommend. Yarns compel me
because of color depth and texture. DoN is supposed to be a superior
yarn, though.

My long project is a cotton crazy quilt blanket. I am knitting
'squares' wherever and whenever I feel like it, out of leftovers.
Actually, the needle sizes are varying, too, so it's making the whole
process Very Interesting. I don't hesitate to tink on anything else,
but I don't on this project unless I really screw up and it won't lie
flat.

I suspect that I will never make another sweater.

It was one of the things I subscribed to when using up Delta ff miles a
while back.  I think it has finally expired.  Haven't noticed it
cluttering my mailbox lately.  I have no memory of its arrival schedule,
only that it came too often, took up too much mailbox room, and was
boring.  I glanced at it a couple of times, then routinely tossed it
into the recycle bag on my way back from the p.o.

And speaking of the p.o., I just saw TWD lying in the sun on the
sidewalk beside the p.o. on this cold and quiet day -- quiet in that the
campus is deserted.  I wonder if maybe I should go buy a hamburger for
him somewhere and take it up there.  He is apparently pretty good at
fending for himself, though.

I know you've said this before, but I can't quite get a handle on
this. You mean you can knit from the end of the row back? I would love
to not purl, ever. When I broke the yarn yesterday, it was in an
effort to purl in back.

Btw, it's been cold in the morning, in the 30's and 40's, and I was
thinking the other day that I wanted to put something on my hands when
I was driving, but I didn't want it to be my leather gloves. Et voila!
I remember the Carolyn mittens, so I pulled them out. They are really
nice mittens--thank you again.

Bingo!   I am happy to know that you don't think one is <supposed to> do
those things.  I never got that feeling as much from your postings as I

It means special in some way. A departure from the norm on the
positive side. For example, making poke is special for me, but slicing
up raw fish and throwing unmeasured amounts of soy sauce, sesame oil,
and scallions on it is not fancy. Fancy is making some Chinese dish
with 30 ingredients and 25 steps, one of which involves letting it sit
overnight--twice.

You did not enjoy Alan Abelson's column? I love it. But of course my
favorite electric teevee show is Louis Rukeyser's show, so what would I
know?

I am going to Border's to look for Barron's - there is a particular story
I want to see before Monday. (Yes, it's online, but only for subscribers.)

You're welcome.

In related news, it's snowing like crazy here; my brother from
 Maine has postponed his trip back for a day due to weather and my parents are
with us till the roads clear; it's slick and slippery everywhere and there
are at least 2-3 inches already with more on the way.

So naturally this is the day that Michael (German) and Mercy (dau.) borrowed
my car for her to show him the local sights.

Me too!  I frankly cannot imagine living in what appears to be your
robot world of predestination.   I truly don't understand it.  I had
never been to Iowa until a couple of years ago.  How was it that I was
suddenly able to go there?  According to your philosophy, my not having
gone there before was a can't -- that it had nothing to do with choice.
Sort of like I can't go to Hawaii or to Mexico City or to Norway.

I knit to the end of the row. then I take the now empty needle, insert it in
the most recent stitch, and begin to knit again with the other hand, moving
(eg) leftward if the last row was knitted rightward. If the thread and full
needle was being held in my right hand and being added to (Continental style)
the empty needle in my left hand will now be the one to which stitches are
added.

I should make a video of it, as it's much easier to demonstrate than it is
to describe. The hardest part of learning to do it is teaching your hands
how to exchange roles.

I still don't think you quite get the fact that not everybody is into
eating as much as you are.  I can't imagine anything less on the
<positive side> for me than slicing up raw fish.  It's fine with me that
you like doing stuff like that, but this discussion got started with a
very strong implication that you think everybody else should like to do
stuff like that also -- that one should cook something special and sit
at a table to eat it.

I have no memory of reading any such column.  I glanced at a couple of
issues, looking mainly at headlines, did not see anything I wanted to

That is fantastic.  It's amazing what people can do who get these
challenges. I see a few who come through the clinics.  Puts things in

This is what I felt about learning to knit continental. And in fact, I
gave up when I discovered that a) I am an efficient English knitter
and b) people seek to emulate my efficient English knitting! It would
be nice to be so efficient I never have to purl. Your description
gives me enough to go on with, though.

So am I. One of the Friday knitting participants made mittens and they
didn't fit me (but they fit her, as they should). I hadn't thought
about mittens fitting before, but these definitely do.

You are entirely missing the point.  I have never disagreed with the
point of treating oneself as a special person now and again.  It's just
that you seem to think you're in charge of the rules of the game.  You
have repeatedly made snide remarks about my CHOICE to eat in front of
the sink.  And then you got onto this thing about my CHOOSING not to put
up xmas decorations being like eating in front of the sink.  You are
obviously incapable of understanding that things that might make *you*
feel like <a special person> are not necessarily things that would make
somebody else feel that way.  Your blinders are quite securely attached.

>can find. (Ebony,
>rosewood, birch...)

I have a whole set of wooden needles, except for the size 8 which one of
the cats cut her teeth on when she was a kitten.  But they aren't
circular.  The Dale of Norway stuff is made with circular needles.  Even
when you make a cardigan, you knit it on circular needles and then cut
it.  Ouch!  I'm going to make a pullover.  I have lots of non-wooden
circulars.  I actually prefer metal needles.  The yarn slips along better.

>I'm a loose knitter--I'd need a 3 to get 6 to the inch.

I'm a tight knitter.  I do make swatches.  I usually knit adult sweaters
with a size 8 needle.  A size 4 needle might just take twice as long, not
to mention that I might go blind following the charts.  But I've been
thinking about this for about three years.  I think I'm ready.  My
stitch'n'bitch friends and the lady who owns the yarn shop are encouraging
me to go for it.

>Is it a Dale of Norway pattern?

Yes, it is.  It's the Fossekallen pattern in my Dalegarn pattern book.  It
is beeyootiful.  Very complex.

>I don't see any need to use the yarn they recommend. Yarns compel me
>because of color depth and texture. DoN is supposed to be a superior
>yarn, though.

I did talk to a woman at not-my-usual yarn shop yesterday.  I love
Icelandic yarn.  They make a Lopi Light.  But she said that I shouldn't use
that for a Dale of Norway sweater.  It would make it too bulky and too
stiff.  I'm sure she is right.  I'm going to go down to Bath, Maine on
Tuesday and stop at the Halcyon Yarn Shop.
http://www.halcyonyarn.com/   I'll see what they say about Dale of Norway
Helio vs. Bartlett sport weight.

>I suspect that I will never make another sweater.
>Karen

Why?  Cost of yarn?  Don't need it in the Texas sun?

It sounds like you are describing levels of complexity.  To me fancy, in
this context, is table linens, a candle, good dishes.  Whereas special
could just be a better meal than usual eaten at the table with a book
instead of at the sink.  Alone at the holidays, I'd go for both special and
fancy.  Otherwise it wouldn't seem like much of a holiday and I would feel
unnecessarily deprived of a cultural treat.

I find that people generally get upset when you don't things the way they
think you should.

Are you prejudiced against fat people? I have a friend who admits she is

I don't, but like Steph I've seen single-letter abbreviations enough on
business cards and sigs that it doesn't seem odd.

Here are some of the single letter sets used in recently-acquired business
cards:

O, F (office, fax)
T, F, E, W (tel, fax, email, web)
T, F (tel, fax)
e, v, f, c (email, voice, fax, cell)
T, F, E (tel, fax, email)
T, F (tel, fax)
w, p (web, phone)
M (mobile)
v, f (voice, fax)

Some of these are from pretty staid organizations, too: a law firm, two
VCs, and an architectural firm.

I meant "can't" as in "can't bring myself to that", not as "incapable of
making that choice."  I, for example, could not bring myself to eat over
the sink.  Too trailer-parkish.  I'd think less of myself.  But I imagine,
in highly unusual circumstances, I could be forced or enticed to eat over
the sink.

I've still got lots of tweaking to do with it.  Either it doesn't offer
as many options as Netscape 4.7 mail, or I haven't found all the places
to change settings.  Quite likely the latter since I haven't really
fooled with it much yet.  I'm back in regular Netscape at the moment,
where things can move faster since it's familiar.  Among other things I
want to change in Mozilla is the way it quotes.  It draws ugly lines
down the left side and leaves fat spaces that are something of a bother
to delete.

I've never liked trying to read and eat at the same time.  I'm not good
at multi-tasking.

What is the cultural treat?  The fancy trappings?  I can't remember much
about the holiday meals in my childhood.  We sometimes went to football
games in Vicksburg on Thanksgiving and would eat a picnic in the park.
When we were at home, my mother did the things one is expected to do,
like cooking turkey or whatever, but we weren't into waiting until the
middle of the afternoon to eat the way many people do.  And I don't
think we ate huge amounts of anything.  We weren't like these
Thanksgiving movies full of endless food.  Since we regularly expressed
thanks for our blessings, we didn't really need a special day set aside
for it.  Thanksgiving was always pretty ho-hum.  And having to stop and
eat was a major annoyance on Christmas in my childhood.  I really don't
remember much about the trappings.  Maybe we ate on the Haviland china.
I don't remember.

Ah so.  That's not my usual interpretation of "can't."  I could
certainly bring myself to eat at the diningroom table with silver and
decent china if I saw any particular reason for doing so.  I don't put
the urgings of you and Karen into the category of a good reason for
doing so, though.

I think all people have to stop and remove their cultural blinders at
times -- stop and remind themselves that not everybody sees things we
find important as being important, etc.  I'm not sure that I can
remember having encountered anybody else with blinders as unremovable as
Karen's.

No.  But I don't think it's good pr for a newly opened home-made food
place to show a picture of the two fat people who own and run it.  My
reaction to the picture was to think, "I wonder what ingredients are in
those casseroles."  (The casseroles they make and sell were said to be
their personal favorites.)

So Natalie, how do you treat yourself like a special person?  Do
you buy new cars?  Do you take in strays?  Do you buy an extra
pair of Birkenstocks?  Do you throw parties?  Do you buy new
computer things?  Do you eat chocolate?  Do you read trashy
novels?

We are in a serious war.  But so far the world hasn't been totally
destroyed.  That may happen yet, but it would happen quite a bit faster
if he had been assassinated while visiting Iraq.

It may be possible to relearn it that way when you're young, but I also lost
the use of ALL of one side of my body due to brain damage, and was already

Only my "thinking" half seemed to have escaped damage; much to some peoples

Lots of ways, including most of the ones you named above.  I'm not sure
about "trashy novels."  It just occurred to me that I've always assumed
that meant trashy with steamy sex scenes, etc.  I rarely read that kind
of novel.  But I certainly enjoy reading what I call "junk books" --
books without any literary merit.  What just occurred to me is that
maybe that's what "trashy novels" means -- like appropriate for throwing
away.  Other things I do are go on trips, have a membership in the
hospital gym so that I can go swimming, etc. etc.

What fat-woman-in-shorts thread?  Who was the fat woman in shorts?
Fwiw, I do prefer for people to dress in ways that don't violate what
are the generally accepted aesthetic tastes of a country -- and note the
"generally accepted" -- I realize that not everybody has exactly the
same taste.  In general, I believe that fat women look ridiculous in
shorts.  But I don't see how that constitutes a prejudice against fat
people.

I've been to those places.  There's very little there.  The only choice
about quoting, for example, is whether you want it above or below your
reply (and whether you want it automatic).  No place to tell it to use >
style instead of that ugly line.

I'm working on it.  But I can't figure out how it has magically started
doing it my way instead of the way it thought I should be doing it.
Fwiw, at the same time it started doing it my way (with > style), it
started putting the quoted material in blue print.  Before that, the
ugly line to the left was blue, but the print was black.  This is mega
weird.

You'll have to show me where. I believe that you are fully capable of

It's fine for ordinary people, but you may end up preferring 4.7 still.

Mozilla proper is fine, but the Firebird browser-only project has had an
intense focus on clean usability, and so Firebird is currently a little
more finely tuned for ordinary people than Mozilla.  I use Firebird and
sponsored-mode Eudora.

Not at all. But food and decorations are basic ways to do this.

Thanks. I have just revised my sigline a second time. (It's my <official>
sigline - I do not intentionally post it here.)

I definitely prefer Mozilla (so far) to Eudora.  I uninstalled Eudora a
little while ago -- which was where, btw, Mozilla had grabbed the Ra
settings.  I occasionally used it for Ra mail if I was expecting a file
from somebody.

I haven't done much browsing yet with Mozilla.  The bookmarks it sucked
in from IE are unusable, but that's ok.  I didn't tell it to suck them
in in the first place.  I'll probably continue using IE for genealogy
stuff, something I got into the habit of a good while back as sort of a
keep-that-stuff-separate routine.  I used Netscape for everything else
but may use Mozilla now.  I haven't checked yet to see what happened
with Netscape bookmarks.  In fact, I didn't notice them sucked in at
all.  Maybe they're there somewhere.  I also haven't tried to move my
Netscape address book yet since there's a long list of steps involved in
doing it.

Steke! One woman I know took a class to get over the fear.

Ebony circulars are very nice. I have some bamboo ones, too.

Ah, yes, following the charts... I don't think a 4 will take twice as
long, though. Depends on the amount of repetition, though.

YaY!!! Go for it!!!

Neat. What is fossekallen? Fish? Scales?

I think so, too. Icelandic designs tend not to be as detail-driven as
some of the Norwegian designs I've seen, and I think that's because of
the yarn. (This is a gross oversimplification, of course.) I knit
several icelandic sweaters a long time ago--one was shades of purple
with a cream base.

Ohmigod. This place is not at all expensive--you can buy cones, which will be
better for knitting the sweater. Fewer joins.

They have beautiful stuff--I want to go with you!!!! And I want to
have a lot of money when I go!!!!

>>I suspect that I will never make another sweater.

I don't wear sweaters. Ever. They make me too hot. Most of my knitting
has been for other people, but I find it difficult to knit things I
can't imagine myself wearing. Maybe I'll feel differently when I start
spinning more, I dunno.

Yes, I was aware of the difference and didn't mean to suggest it would be easy.

I know that it would be so slow and would involve so many adjustments and
corrections that I would hate to do it myself. I can barely knit under
ordinary circumstances - my muscles tense up from concentration. I am sure
 my cousin only did it because someone told her she couldn't. She was
determined to be an independent person, and was able to do so because she
was young and resilient, and still had good neurological control.

I did think that if you wanted to very much, there might be a way to use a
needle stuck in place so it couldn't move. But it would be, as I said,
more work than I would want to do.

That was a remark about the weather. E.G., the route they took was closed
at the next exit south due to an accident while they were coming home, and
they had difficulty getting back - but they are back now.

On the rec of a friend, I went to a local computer store (i.e., not
Fry's) to buy my USB card. I'm going to buy as much as I can from them
in the future. They were cheaper than Overstock.com, and the service
was far better and much kinder.

Sometimes I feel like these local electronics stores are as much in

Nice, eh?  I haven't ever been there.  But the woman who owns the Inn where
I work in the season was there last month and raved about it.  They have
samples knitted of some of the sweaters.  She fell in love with this tunic
length, cable-knit sweater that they were showing.  She bought the pattern
in the hopes that I would make it for her.  I couldn't make heads or tails
of the pattern.  But I'm sure I could figure it out as I go.  She hasn't
bought any yarn yet.  I hope they are still displaying the sweater when I
get there on Tuesday.  Bath, Maine is almost three hours south of us.

The same woman I mentioned above, bought the wool of a whole sheep when she
was at the Common Ground Fair this past
fall.  http://www.mofga.org/fb01.html  Since then she has taken a spinning
class and bought a wheel.  Last week I saw the wool that she had washed and
combed.  So incredibly soft!  The first yarn she spun was very thick.  But
now she has the hang of it and made a ball of nicely plied yarn.  It's
quite different from the smelly wool she brought back with her to the Inn
the day of the Common Ground Fair.

I'm sick of reading about treating yourself as 'special.'  I think the
whole concept of 'special' is pathetic.

I do have the concept of 'treat' but I draw the line there.  There's
something infantile about 'making yourself feel special.'

That's how they suck you in!

Take the digital camera and take pictures of the places you think will
be troublesome.

They call them fleeces.:)

This is a funny synchronicity--I was looking at the Common Ground page
about 5 minutes ago, for another reason.

Oh, yes. It's not a fast process at all, which is why you can buy
fleece/wool at various stages.

I'm using a spindle to spin; can't afford a wheel.

Uh huh.  I do profess to know the answer.  The answer is yes -- choosing
not to do something is a choice.  (I'm not sure what "having Christmas"
means, btw.  How does one have xmas?)

Poor Natalie.  If I lived alone, I wouldn't bother with a
big dinner.  I might make a little bit of turkey and
stuffing and open up a can of Ocean Spray cranberry jellied
cranberry sauce just so I could have turkey-n-stuffing
sandwiches for the week, but that's because nobody in
Missouri has ever heard of a turkey-n-stuffing sandwich, one
of the world's sublime delights, but I digress.  I wouldn't
decorate, either.  I'd go to church and call it good.  Then
play with my dogs and read a good book.  Maybe when I'm an
old lady I'll have my horses in the back yard at last, and I
could just take a ride with the dogs.  That would be a
perfect Christmas.

Not that Christmas isn't delightful with Ana at this age.
It really is.  But it's a lot of work to pull it off, and it
makes me very, very tired.

We who?  Although we always had a xmas tree (until my mother got old and
said she really didn't want one), food was never a significant part of
my family's <culture>.  My mother always said that eating was a
requirement to keep the body going, and she was always conscious of good
nutrition.  But we never considered meals <entertainment>.  We had no
<special-event> meals (other than the expected turkey on Thanksgiving
since my parents were always conformists).  I think we had either turkey
or ham on xmas also, though my main memory was that it was a bother to
have to stop playing and eat lunch.  My mother was always happy to have
meals over with and the dishes washed.  She was never a complainer, but
it was obvious that she found cooking one of life's tedious chores.  We
ate decent meals every day and did not do anything particularly
different on holidays.  I have no particular food associations with
holidays except for knowing that turkey is traditional on Thanksgiving
and that eggnog is consumed around xmas.

Anyway, it is not within my cultural experience to think of food as a
way to make myself feel <special>.  A bottle of champagne maybe --
though it doesn't last very well and a whole bottle is too much to
consume alone, so it is not something I normally choose for
special-feeling.  (They used to sell champagne in splits.  I don't think
I've seen any in years.  I remember feeling quite special and loving it
one time while sitting on a motel balcony in Key West drinking champagne
that I had just bought in a split.)

Careful. Do not answer. If there is a right way to <have Christmas>, then
Natalie will declare Christmas anathema. Remember <doing Morning Prayer>?

Or maybe she has already declared it anathema.

Sometimes we--and by 'we' I mean me--making choices because we are
compelled to do so by other psychological factors that we don't
recognize or understand at the time.

I don't know how one has xmas, but one has Christmas by celebrating
it.

The Church Lady?

I agree with Annbork, btw, in not liking the wording of 'making yourself

talking about treats.  I have not ever thought, "I am going to do this
so I can feel special."

I think I really must have alzheimers.  I seem to have forgotten how to
end the copy con command.  I just went to make a new signature file for
Ra for when I want to use Mozilla -- meaning a sig file on my own
computer, not the sig file I have on Ra.  But ctrl-z wouldn't end the
file.  SO I decided maybe it was ctrl-c.  When I tried that, I got a
strange error message.  What *is* the command?  I feel mightily stupid.

I'm thinking about giving Burl some leftover turkey to chew on. There
are no big bones, but there are thin pointy bones that she could hurt
herself on and tendons she could choke on. Do I have to worry about
her?

I love xmas parties, those I give and those I attend.  And I love xmas
music (loved it more when I could still sing but still love it).  That's
why I was hoping to go to NYC before xmas -- there's great music during
the week before xmas.  I very definitely celebrate xmas.  I have not
particularly cared for xmas day itself since childhood, though.  All the
fun things are over by the 25th.

I have never paid attention to the food part.  I'm aware of decorations.
  The only holiday I have food memories about is Halloween.  I loved
trick-or-treating, and we'd take our candy to school the next day and
exchange with friends.

Probably not.  Cats are reasonably careful about how they eat, so the bones
shouldn't be much of a problem.  With the tendons/ligaments, if a cat can't
chew them up, they won't try to swallow them.  A dog, on the other hand,
tends to gulp its food in fairly large chunks, which is why small, sharp
bones (or for that matter, any sort of fowl bones that they can cursh and
splinter) can give them a problem.

Mozilla sucked in my Netscape addresses easily and efficiently.  It's
going to take me a while to get totally comfortable with Mozilla.  I
don't like changing mail programs.  But I've been worrying about how one
of these days Netscape 4.7 might not be available anymore.  So this is a
good time to go on and change.

Yup. Burl has some dog-like behaviors, but this isn't one of them.

I didn't read novels for many years, stuck on non-fiction.
Now I'm hitting novels again, and they don't need to be
the finest . . just need to have a good plot that rivets me
and a writing style that doesn't make me puke.  I began the
habit of reading every night before sleep.  I prop up the
pillows and if I'm tired I read one paragraph, maybe, but
if I'm not tired I may read several chapters.  It's amazing
how many books one can read just by reading regularly.

Right now I'm on one that fascinates me.  It's over 800
pages and I chose it to see me through a couple of airports
and plane trips and some cold autumn evenings.  It is
The Crimson Petal and the White by Michel Faber.
Don't know him, but he writes well and has such a novel
approach. (Well, duh . .) The book talks to you in asides as
it unfolds the  story, and it is so clever you just want to elbow
someone and smile.  And the story goes on and on, now and then
digressing to follow yet another character down the street
and look into his life.

I really should have saved this one for the beach, yet it's
a grade above that.  Too nice to get tanning oil smudges.

My parents were read-in-bedders.  My mother especially absolutely had to
have a book in her hands when she went to bed.  For some reason I have
never been into that habit.  I don't use the bed-side lamp at all,
though I like knowing it's there.  When I get ready to go to bed, I turn
off the bedroom light, get in bed, and go to sleep.

I'm enjoying _Indiana Gothic_, which I had thought I would read all of
this week, but things kept interfering with my reading time.

I'm fascinated by Mozilla.  I wrote that title with _ and _ at its
beginning and end, which is how it looks right now in the quoated part
of this reply.  But in the message itself, the whole title was
underlined.  It's like Mozilla knew that that was what I wanted to do
with it.  Mozilla is amazing.  I still have no idea at all what made it
start handling quotations in a more comely manner.

I told it no html.  I don't write html into my e-mail.  But I don't
understand what you're saying that in response to.  What would html have
to do with the change from using ugly lines down the left when pulling
in quotations to using > and >>?  Or are you talking about why it would
convert _ and _ into full underlining?  I don't see how html would
affect that either, even if I had told Mozilla that html was <allowed>.

There are often two buttons--one for writing HTML and one for reading
posts as HTML. If one reads an HTML post, then often the mailer
automatically replies in the same. I have no idea about Mozilla, of
course, so I will shut up now. But what you're describing
sounds to me like HTML is a factor.

Could be, but in all of the Mozilla settings, I've seen only two that
mentioned html.  I said no to "compose in html" and clicked "convert to
plain text" for something else that mentioned html.

What?  Alan doesn't disapprove of French wine??  I've forgotten the name
of Old Fart's wife now, though the liquor-store owner and I discussed it
not all that long ago when I was buying some Old Fart.

        I have this on my TBR stack (which is on my bedside table --
I read in bed sometimes).  I'm going to leave it until this
spring, I think, because I'm a little tired of that time
period at the moment.  My current book is a collection of
essays called "The Verb To Bird."

Woman Knocked Unconscious While Shopping

AP
Patty VanLester of Orange City

ORANGE CITY, Fla. (Nov. 29) - A mob of shoppers rushing for a sale on DVD
players trampled the first woman in line and knocked her unconscious as they
scrambled for the shelves at a Wal-Mart Supercenter.

Patricia VanLester had her eye on a $29 DVD player, but when the siren blared
at 6 a.m. Friday announcing the start to the post-Thanksgiving sale, the
41-year-old was knocked to the ground by the frenzy of shoppers behind her.

''She got pushed down, and they walked over her like a herd of elephants,''
said VanLester's sister, Linda Ellzey. ''I told them, 'Stop stepping on my
sister! She's on the ground!'''

Ellzey said some shoppers tried to help VanLester, and one employee helped
Ellzey reach her sister, but most people just continued their rush for deals.

''All they cared about was a stupid DVD player,'' she said Saturday.

Paramedics called to the store found VanLester unconscious on top of a DVD
player, surrounded by shoppers seemingly oblivious to her, said Mark O'Keefe,
a
spokesman for EVAC Ambulance.

She was flown to Halifax Medical Center in Daytona Beach, where doctors told
the family VanLester had a seizure after she was knocked down and would
likely
remain hospitalized through the weekend, Ellzey said. Hospital officials said
Saturday they did not have any information on her condition.

''She's all black and blue,'' Ellzey said. ''Patty doesn't remember anything.
She still can't believe it all happened.''

Ellzey said Wal-Mart officials called later Friday to ask about her sister,
and the store apologized and offered to put a DVD player on hold for her.

Wal-Mart Stores spokeswoman Karen Burk said she had never heard of a such a
melee during a sale.

''We are very disappointed this happened,'' Burk said. ''We want her to come
back as a shopper.''

Oh, Natalie, the things you miss. There are 12 days of Christmas - they
start at or about midnight on the 24th - as I have said before. I love the
Christmas season - though I could do without some of the stuff that
precedes Christmas.

Proceed at your own risk, of course, but you might try removing old drivers
in Add/Remove Hardware, or System/Device Manager, or by running msconfig.

OT - While you were in FL, I heard that at least one
of those punks(Sandoval) who robbed the bank and
killed those Innocent folks, had been convicted.  May
have been more than one of them.  I immediately
thought you would be glad to hear it.

You should take notes if you're going to make accusations.  I can't
imagine declaring prayers anathema.  (I can, of course, imagine laughing
at the idea of needing <instruction> in how to pray, which is perhaps
what you are alluding to.)

So you've told us before.  For me xmas is from the fourth Thursday in
November until approximately December 24.

Natalie, have you heard any definite news about your
new coach - possibly Sylvester Croom?  Last item I
heard was that he had not replied to the invitation to
move to MSU.

I am happy to report that during my bell-ringing stints yesterday I saw
nary a wounded customer walking out.  Hmm.  Maybe that's because they
weren't able to.  But I didn't see any paramedics rushing in either.
And when I was in Walmart this afternoon, all seemed fine.

I'm more and more impressed by Walmart, btw.  I think I mentioned before
that ours now has wasabi peas and miso soup.  I noticed today that they
have those Jewish candles that love,judith and I looked for here when
she was visiting and needed to find one to honor her father's memory.
They even have Pad Thai makings in a package.  Wmart is definitely the
best grocery store in this town.

Why does it set you on edge?  I've never thought of it (until this
discussion) as having a political bent.  I think of it as having mostly
good music with some good news segments and occasional other good talk
stuff.

I kept staring at this, trying to remember what I said to remind me to
tell Doris when she returned.  I am disappointed in Wordslers for
failing me!  But I finally remembered that what it was was that I did
business with Omaha Steaks -- ordered a gift certificate to give my
niece for xmas.

And speaking of xmas -- another thing I like about it is shopping for
gifts.  It's fun to try to think of the right gifts.

No, I haven't heard anything.  The name Croom sounds familiar.  Is he an
assistant coach for a pro team?  I remember reading something a few days
ago about a very likely candidate who was an assistant coach for some
pro team and who was unavailable for comment at the time because his
team was playing in Detroit(?) this weekend.  Does Croom coach for a
team that might have been playing in somewhere like Detroit this weekend?

Yes.  He was quite a star at AL years back.  If hired,
he would be the first African American coaching in the
SEC (Div. 1).  I don't know much about
his character, but he was highly regarded in his
playing days.

So he is the one I read about -- as in the pro team he's an assistant
coach for is playing somewhere like Detroit this weekend?  Is he a good
coach?  Good players aren't always good coaches.

And surely in Nebraska he learned about things like bulls and steers.
Also, Jackie Sherrill's bull-castration supposedly didn't involve his
own hands.  A vet school surgeon is said to have done it.

Yes, that's got to be him.  And yes, AL has had its
share of players who did not make good coaches.  It
remains to be seen with Mr. Croom.

I'm feeling more and more comfortable with Mozilla -- and I am not one
to adapt easily to new ways.  So this is another thank-you.

And now I am going to turn off the computer and look forward to an
interesting dream life.  I love going to bed at night because dreams are
fun and because it will then be morning, my favorite time of day.

I don't know. It's like nails on a blackboard.

I'm talking about the news, commentary, and other spoken-word stuff like
PHC. The classical music I like just fine.

The one that gets under my skin is Bob Edwards.  I
think Doris has noted before that he can't keep his
bias out of his voice.  He gets away with
editorializing, as well.  But I guess a lot of
newscasters do.

I've done it because I wanted to find out if it was possible, and it is; but
as you said, more work than it's worth.
Today I spend a long time threading a needle. But I too am an independent

Have a look at http://www.dvdrhelp.com/dvdplayers.php.  Even if
all you're going to play is rented and store bought region 1
dvds, if the model you are considering buying is a dud, it will
tell you so.  Our first player worked great for about a month,
and then started hiccoughing on the slightest of scratches.  It
was up there on the site and everyone was having pretty much the
same problem.  When we were in the market to get a new one, we
actually went around, wrote down all the models we were
interested in and typed them in (and this time we wanted
something with well know hacks so it would play discs from any
region).  Of course they're always changing model numbers, so you
have to find something that's not too new.  A bunch of the
players we were interested in weren't up on that site at all.

Since I did not state that you declared prayers anathema, I feel no need
to add details. You are the one who said that.

Actually they are not - if you get a special package with free
shipping/handling etc. Prices compare very favorably with those of the
best beef in Knoxville.

But I am about to switch to organic beef. I eat little beef, and I am
about to limit it to organic - when I am cooking.

At the end of this email are the URLs for the sites where four people put

rest of you take down your sites?  I've had a total of 1266 hits on my site

I received some as gifts a couple of times and mainly remember being
interested in the dry ice or whatever it was that they were shipped in.
  I vaguely remember that the steaks were good also, though I don't have
a very clear memory -- it was a long time ago -- and am not a good judge
of dead cow anyway.  The only strong memory I have of eating steak that
I truly did think was wonderful was in Japan.  (It was ordered by
somebody else who had arranged in advance the various courses of some
kind of fancy restuarant meal.  The steak arrived at some point after
the things like sashimi, and I was amazed at how good it was -- didn't
taste like any dead animal I'd ever encountered before.)

You are sounding like Dubya and Karen.  Hmmmm.  Maybe it's a Texas

I enjoy all twelve days of Christmas. I also enjoy and observe the
preceding four weeks of Advent. Advent is, of course, the period of
preparation for Christmas:

"The period including the four Sundays before Christmas. Advent Sunday,
the first Sunday in the season of Advent, being always the nearest Sunday
to the feast of St. Andrew (Nov. 30)."

There is an interesting story about Noam Chomsky in today's Guardian (no
registration req'd):

http://books.guardian.co.uk/departments/politicsphilosophyandsociety/
story/0,6000,1096132,00.html

(all that has to go on one line)

I don't know how long current stories stay online.

Croom played college ball at Alabama, then played in the pros.  He <is> an
assistant coach in the NFL.  Last year he was considered for the Alabama
coaching job, which went to a much lesser experienced person.  I'm sure
that if he wishes, he could be considered for any number of college
head-coach jobs this year (Nebraska also is looking).

That's the way I learned to knit - I haven't seen anyone knit here
and don't know the "other" way. Where does one find knitters?
I'm curious and want to see the American way of knitting.

That bodes ill for us.  It has been said, btw, that an announcement of
our new coach was likely to be made this weekend.  The weekend is

English knitting--that's how I knit.

Ask at a yarn shop, or on your local .general newsgroup; that's how I
found out about the Friday one, and that sucked me into the Monday
one. There are 3 groups I know of in Austin. They meet Monday night,
Wednesday night, and Friday afternoon.

Don't tempt me, bonniev! I would so love to see Acadia and
Maine in the bleak winter sun...

Next time I visit we'll have to arrange a knitting demo.

(Don't know if I've told this story before. I only learned to
knot because I failed every "crafts" class in high school and
the good nuns insisted I complete at least one project. After
a series of projects that went nowhere I tried knitting and
ended up liking it. Haven't made anything since then, though.)

I'm a lawyer looking for a linguist/grammarian to review, for a fee to
be negotiated, parts of the manuscript of my forthcoming book ''A
Manual of Style for Contract Drafting,'' to be published by the
American Bar Association in 2004. The areas to be reviewed address
linguistics topics such as syntactic ambiguity, the semantic ambiguity
of plural nouns and ''and,'' ''or,'' ''every,'' and ''each,'' and verb
use in different contexts. I anticipate a total of 10 to 20 hours of
work during December and January.

Why is interviewing football coach candidates so <clandestine>?  I just
read an article in today's Starkville Daily News that was reporting on
the current rumors.  The main rumor is that the job has been offered to
Croom and that we're now waiting for him to say yes or no.  It went on
to say that the Clarion-Ledger in Jackson confirmed that a plane leased
by MSU flew to Green Bay Friday afternoon and returned to Starkville
that night.  Somehow I find this all hilarious -- newspapers checking
flight records, etc. etc.

Tempt, tempt, tempt.  I'm hiking with April this afternoon.  We are doing a
four mile loop on Norumbega Mountain.  I've never hiked there before.  You
could hike with us and then on Tuesday you could play Scrabble with us and
then on Wednesday you come to stitch'n'bitch although there are only two of
us that knit.  Two others do needlepoint.  The fifth does odd things like
repair antique throws.  Last week she spent two hours taking the seat off
an antique chair in order to send it off and have the hole in the
needlepoint repaired.  Her great-grandmother possibly did the needlepoint
herself.  The chair is gorgeous.  The insert in the back of the chair is a
risque needlepoint.

addiction, but later she says it's a luxury. I'm not sure about either
of those.

I quite sure that it's not an addiction for me, but it is something I
like quite a lot. OTOH, I don't think it's a luxury for me, either.
It's not exactly a necessity, but it allows me to express things that
I would need some other outlet for if I didn't knit. I don't define
myself as a knitter.

One of the more interesting things for me is to see how people's
attitudes express themselves in their knitting. This is something I
wouldn't have been aware of if I hadn't started going to a large (10
people or so--but not the same 10 every time) knitting group. You can
see who's adventurous, who's timid, who is too anal-retentive to live,
who is too relaxed to ever accomplish much...

Rashmi, the next time I visit my sister in DE, I'll stop in and demonstrate
both ways of knitting - with both hands.

Any number of reasons, among which are:

---they don't want to get caught.  Sometimes, they are contacting another
college coach who is under contract while their own coach may still be
employed (see, e.g., the Auburn fiasco of a week ago or thereabouts).

---they don't want the public embarrassment of being rejected.

---they don't want the ante to be raised, i.e., they want to avoid a
bidding war with another school.

---they want to be able to have dramatic, surprise news conferences.

---they are idiots.

This leads me to ask another dumb question.  At some
point in "threading", I made mention of the "fact"
that Bethany had lived in Texas.  She reacted with a
"Huhh?", or something like that.

Bethany, did you not live in San Antonio when you were
teaching at Trinity?  Just curious.

There's a column about that in today's Jackson paper -- the "what goes
around comes around" aspect for the much-hated (in Mississippi)
Turbeville.  (I didn't pay any attention to the sins that made him hated
here when that happened but am aware that he is considered bad, bad, bad
-- that even here at MSU people cheer for our arch-rival, Ole Miss, when
they play Auburn and that it has something to do with hating the coach.)

Much of life is really funny, imho.  I remember seeing Raven McDavid, a
well-known linguist at the U of Chicago, rushing about in Columbia, SC,
at a meeting years ago (obviously years ago -- he's been dead since the
early '80s), carrying a pile of folders and talking about how they had
been stolen by whichever university from whichever other university --
folders of linguistic atlas materials.  I'm not describing it well at
all.  My point is that I remember sitting there being amused at how he
was acting as if whatever was going on with those files was of major
importance to people all over the world -- that it would probably be
headlines the next morning.  There is so very much to laugh about in life.

My association of Bethany with Texas has to do with her having been born
there and grown up there.

? That's why I was answering your question about the Guardian.  I don't
know exactly how long, but I know it's a long time -- far longer than a
few days.

I have had two emails from India and my
daughter is having a marvelous but a very 
mixed experience.  She has been in Chennai
(formerly Madras) and then travelled by herself 
but with a guide to Delhi to see the Taj Mahal, 
etc., now planning a quick trip to Kerrala.
I guess in Chennai they have rounded up the
elephants to return to the jungle and they are
also clearing the streets of cows, which will
not be allowed there anymore.

As you might guess (knowing my own views)  
her greatest shock has been exposure to the
Indian class system. The thing that has surprised
her the most is not the conditions of the street
or of the household servants, but the conditions
of the privileged.  This kind of life is unknown
to us. 

I have been concerned because she is not well
travelled.  I guess she had to start somewhere,

I'm glad she's doing well.

I often describe India as an "assault on the senses".
Too many people, too many sounds, too much color,
there's no mutedness, no off-switch. It's hard to
describe or understand or adequately prepare for.
*I* can't get used to it anymore, don't know how
first-time visitors do it. When my folks visit here
the first 2-3 days they keep remarking on the
silence and space and fresh air. That's why I like
them to visit regularly - to recharge their batteries
so they can go back to all the pollution and noise.

Since company has all departed I have nothing else to do.  :-)  My nephew
is being deployed to Iraq next year and I'm so glad they were able to be
here.  I'll just type in both pages and hope I don't make too many typos.

The introduction says:  We know Janis Joplin would have loved these sweet
potatoes, with their silken texture, their crunchy rum-spiked pecans and
the pleasing hit of Southern Comfort--a traditional ingredient in holiday
sweet potato dishes in upscale southern kitchens.   They're always on the
Thanksgiving table at the home of Gene Burns, host of the leading San
Francisco food show on radio. Burns discovered the dish in Boston where
Barbara Riley has a catering company called riley to the Rescue. The
vanilla rum pecans are tasty on their own and make a good holiday gift.

Vanilla Rum pecans or Walnuts           Sweet Potatoes
2 cups pecans or walnuts                        3 pounds sweet potatoes,
unpeeled
4 T (1/2 stick) unsalted butter, melted 3/4 (1.5 sticks unsalted butter, melted
2-3 T light brown sugar                 1 C heavy cream
2 t pure vanilla extract                        1/3 C pure maple syrup, or
a little more for extra flavor
2 T dark rum                            1/4 C Southern Comfort
1 t ground cinnamon                     1 t salt

To make the nuts:  Preheat the over to 325. Toss the nuts with the melted
butter and brown sugar. Roast, stirring often, for 10 minutes, or until the
nuts are glazed and slightly brown.  Remove from the oven and toss with the
remaining ingredients. Return to the over for another 3-4 minutes.  Cool.

To prepare the sweet potatoes:  Meanwhile, place the unpeeled sweet
potatoes in a large baking pan, add about 2 in. of water and cover tightly
with foil. Bake on the lower shelf of the oven until tender, about 1.5 hr.
(If the water evaporates, replace it with a bit more.)

Remove the potatoes from the oven and let them cool enough to be handled .
Peel them and add them to a food process in batches along with the
remaining ingredients (except the nuts), processing until smooth. transfer
the pureed sweet potatoes to a mixing bowl and beat with a wooden spoon to
combine thoroughly.

Serve the puree hot, garnished with the glazed nuts.

Cook's not:  You can make the potatoes and pecans a day ahead.  When you
are ready to serve, reheat the potato puree and add the nuts at the last
minute.

Oh, it's nothing like that; everyone can

Her husband talked to her a while ago by
phone and she said that when she finally
arrived at the Taj Mahal she was so over-
whelmed, perhaps by the beauty, perhaps
by the newness of her experience or her
success in getting there relatively alone, that she just sat down and
bawled.

I had told her she may never be the same
person after this trip, and she is telling me
I am right.  Her first email revealed that she
was in shock, even though she had been
well prepared.  But she loves it there and
I'm wondering how she will feel when it's
time to leave, a week from now.

This reminds me of a Japanese guest I had
a few years ago.  We took a drive to the
capital city of Nebraska, a two hour trip,
and all the way she was just aghast at the
large open spaces, miles of open fields
with no people or houses.  She was in
shock, really, and had been totally
unprepared for this.

        I keep one without the filter in the fridge.  I just like
cold water, and I had the pitcher sitting around the house.

        Theo is always right, Karen.  Just accept full blame and move
on.  We all know what a corrupter of youth you are --
especially that grandson of hers.

        Quote this back to her in three days and she'll deny memory

Maybe she won't leave. I know people who went to Japan for a week and

When I lived in Japan, there were lots of open fields. During the time
I lived there, I watched many of the rice fields turn into housing. In
any case, the open fields I knew were not uninterrupted--there are a
lot of burial mounds, or shrines for special trees, etc. in fields.

        It has to be a very thickly cut, good bread.  Wonder bread

I saw an announcement in today's paper about special advent music at
First Methodist Church at 4 p.m. and 7 p.m. today.  I thought about
going since I love xmas music, but I didn't want to get dressed up and
go outside in the waning hours of the day.  And a local church choir and
hand-bellers aren't likely to be all that exciting really.  We weren't
when I sang in that choir.  (I need to dig out the tape I have somewhere
of my voice blasting forth right in front of the microphone when singing
first tenor in a men's quartet at a Sunday night service at the
methodist church.  I know I've told that story before -- about how they
decided I should be right in front of the microphone since my female
voice would be the weakest.  Ha!  It blasts forth quite decisively.)

It's the end of Thanksgiving week end , Rita.  Are you going to post stuff
about Fest 2004? I just saw last night, or the night before, that your city
isn't one of the safest in the country.  Not that that would stop any

        I don't know how the Methodists do it, but Advent songs are
different from Christmas songs.  Lots of making straight the
paths and stuff, not infants in mangers.

        Well, I'm just starting to work on a little webpage at this
very moment.  I'm starting with the beer links.  You see, I
spent a couple of days at the barn playing with the horsies,
and today it was golden 65 degree day, so after church
(Advent I!! Break out the new Purples!!  OK, whatever), Ana
and I went on a bird watching hike at the conservation area.
  It's too early for the eagles, but I did see my first
junco (and lots and lots of grackles).  I was happy to note
that the controlled hunt did a nice job of cutting down the
dove population -- they were starting to take over.  In
other words, I was highly dilletantish this weekend, as usual.

        St. Louis isn't particularly dangerous unless you hang out in
the wrong neighborhoods.  Luckily, there aren't many tourist
destinations in North or East St. Louis (unless you are a
big fan of Myles Davis, but I'd take you in that case).

I've seen lots of open fields in Japan, though the ones I've seen don't
stretch for miles and miles and miles the way they do in Iowa.  (And
yes, I realize Doris was talking about Nebraska, but I haven't been
there except just barely -- the day I ate dead cow in a Nebraska
McDonald's just across a bridge from Iowa and called Bonniemae and
forgot to tell her Happy Birthday and felt horribly guilty.  And then my
cell phone wouldn't work, so I had to wait and call Bradykins from the
motel phone somewhere in Kansas and have him convey my apologies to
Bonniemae.)  Anyway, I regularly passed an open rice-paddy on the train
between my apartment and my place of work.  And I saw lots of open
fields from train windows when traveling to Nagasaki, etc.  And then
there were tons of wooded places.  And one thing that always impressed
me was that even in the heart of Tokyo one was not far away from quiet,
beautiful gardens that gave the sense of being in a rural setting.  The
major parks were huge, but there were zillions of other small parks and
shrines and whatevers offering beauty and quiet.  Given the cost of real
estate and the crowded sidewalks and trains, I found the abundance of
peaceful places quite impressive.

Here's more re the SSA and increased benefits. If you are making
additional contributions to SS while collecting benefits, then your
benefits will increase if your annual salary for a year replaces one of
your highest 35 years of earnings. So what is happening in my case is
that, most recently, my 2002 earnings were higher than a preceding year
and thus replaced a preceding year. Benefits are apparently calculated on
the basis of one's highest 35 years of earnings. That will continue as
long as I am at UT, so my benefits will probably increase each year.

Mine needs it again, but I am not going to do it.  Meanwhile, though, I
had a WLM in Wmart this afternoon when I was looking for pansies --
waited too late -- they were almost sold out -- I bought the last little
six-pack left.  The WLM was that I suddenly saw the most gorgeous small
artificial xmas tree.  I dislike artificial xmas trees mightily.  But
this one really did look so real -- but did not smell real -- but then
live trees that are shipped in from faraway places also don't smell real
  -- it's gotta be a cedar to smell like xmas for me.  Anyway, I was
tempted for an instant to buy that tree and put it on a table in my
living room.  But I didn't.  It's too late now to do decorating.
Tomorrow brings a very, very, very busy week, and my life will stay busy
for at least the next ten days.  I will be very glad when the ARF
banquet is over.  But I'll still have exams to grade.

That would be very surprising.  Japanese are *majorly* into travel, both

I had forgotten about that.  All of my childhood Daddy gave Mama
underwear for xmas!  It had become a joke.  He also gave her other
things, but there was always the underwear package under the tree.  I
think it continued past my childhood.  I have a vague memory of doing
his xmas shopping for him after he got old and not capable of doing it
and remembering to get the underwear for Mama.

We used to laugh also about how in my very young childhood I always
bought bobby pins for Mama for xmas.  But at least I did my own xmas
shopping (not that I was out working to make the money -- the money was
provided for me).  I think it's odd that my nephew, now in his early
twenties, has never, afaik, bought any gift himself.  His parents take
care of it for him.

My normal choice would be wheat, but I think white is also available.
Are you saying that that is the <right> choice for such a sandwich?

Re types of bread, I'm suddenly remembering something I found so funny
and that has stuck in my memory all these years.  I remember it was when
I was married, so it has to have been early '70s -- the reason I
remember that was that I remember I couldn't wait to tell my husband.  I
was in the Union getting a sandwich for lunch and was behind a student
who was outraged because they had just run out of whole-wheat bread.
When the sandwich-maker asked if white bread would do, the student said,
"NO!  White bread is bad for you!"  But here's the funny part:  I
watched that student move on to another section of the Union grill and
get something like a hamburger and french-fries.  (I also think it was
bad that they'd run out of ww bread that day, but I really don't think
that the white bread would've wrenched out that student's guts.)

This reminds me of the tape I have of the Messiah performance I sang in
while in college - I can hear one tenor in the chorus quite predominantly. I
remember he was an old man with an atrocious red toupee. Man did he just
belt it out; you could tell he'd been singing it for years.

Speaking of which, our local Messiah sing-alongs are on the 21st and I have
to start practicing.

This may be a problem.  I almost never go to the sandwich-making area in
the cafeteria and thus am not sure what the bread choices are, but my
guess is that they aren't all that great.  But here's another thought:
My pattern since so-called retirement is often to leave campus shortly
after lunch.  That means I could eat whatever for lunch with my friends
(whom I have mightily missed during this vacation, I might add) and then
go back and get turkey and dressing and cranberry sauce in a to-go box,
bring it home, and put it on good bread.  I could either bake some
bread, which I haven't done in ages but presumably could still figure
out how to do, or buy some good bread somewhere.  The latter would be
simpler.  (Have we decided whether it should be white?  I don't think I
ever tried making any white bread.  The only kind I knew how to make was
ww.)

I'm trying to remember what all the newspaper thing said -- something
about "masterpiece characters" or some such.  I got the feeling that
some sort of little skit was going to be acted out, in addition to the
music.

But the dinger for the Smart Ones pizza in the toaster oven is about to
ding.  I must go get out the silver and fine china and goblet for the
special meal I'm about to eat.  No pepperoni this time.  This one is
vegetarian.

I'm reading on one of the knitting mailing lists how people can make a

Tokyo is actually on a plain, but of course the rice fields started

What a perfect description.  I think that I have said it here before---for
the first 24 hours or so in India, if I could have pushed a button and been
instantaneously returned to the USA, I would have pushed that
button.  After the first day or so, I got caught up in experiencing and
appreciating a much different way of life.  There was one other thing that
I believe you recognize but didn't mention: the odors---not necessarily
bad, but again, very different.  And again, for the first-time visitor,
it's that everything is different.

I'm somewhat surprised that you experience the same thing.  I would have
presumed some sort of aesthetic/sensory/etc. memory, but perhaps that
doesn't happen---or perhaps you've been away too long.

The first six months I lived in Japan, I was nauseated almost every
day. My bus stop was in front of a pickle place and the smell of
fermentation was too much for me; in the beginning I lost my lunch a
couple of times. After about six months, I noticed that I was inhaling
when I passed the store, that it had become a good smell.

When I was in Hong Kong, there were streets I did not walk down
because they smelled too bad.

Oh good!  I have something to add, albeit a senile recollection:

When I was 20 years old and spending that summer in Rome, living with a
middle-aged Italian couple, at first I was offended by the strong garlic
etc. smell on the buses.  I mean not offended, because I wanted to fit in, but
made uncomfortable.  Then after maybe a week of eating the same food
everybody else did, I didn't notice it.  Because (I assumed) I smelled the
same.

Hmmm.  Now, what do I want to smell like . . . Hey what do they smell like
in Ibiza?  Los Angeles, even?

Let it be known, though, that my heavy voice in that tape was because of
the placement of the microphone -- and because they told me to sing
louder since I was a female!  In my myriad years of choirdom, I was
never one to belt out inappropriately.

And I feel so mightily depressed that I can no longer sing.  Like your
belt-out man, though I didn't belt out, I sang the Messiah for so many
years that it is part of my inner fiber.

I didn't encounter smelly streets in HK, but I do remember feeling a bit
overwhelmed by the spicy smells in the casbahs I wandered through in
Morocco, thinking that I really was in a foreign country.

Here's a definition from
http://www.boston-online.com/glossary/combat_zone_the.html :

"Combat Zone, the
The city's "adult entertainment district," located between Downtown
Crossing and Chinatown, more or less. The porno places are now almost
entirely gone, and the "combat" these days are mostly between
developers and Chinatown residents who don't want to be displaced by
expensive condos planned for the area's rundown buildings."

        Combat Zone.  One shouldn't worry about me.  I meet more

You're probably doing other things in life, though - and avoiding neck and

        I'll get there.  I've never stayed in any of the local
establishments, so I'll have to visit to see which ones are
decent.  Probably over Christmas break.

        Look!  We have a Bed & Breakfast!

http://www.englishinnbandb.com/

        I'll definitely go and inspect.  I drive up Rue St. Francois
all the time, but I don't remember seeing this place.  I
think they overstate the charms of Old Towne somewhat, but
it's a generally pleasant area.

I don't really care. I'd like to be an efficient knitter, and I
generally am, but I also get bored easily. I suspect these people are
not messing with the pattern or with different kinds of wool. That
being said, I'm doing a sock with 0's, and it's taken me about 2
months to do the heel flap because I can only stand to do a couple of
rows at a time. If I do more than that, I have to undo it all because
I invariably drop or split a stitch.

I've always liked turkey sandwiches.  That is my regular travel food
when driving -- stopping at Subways and getting turkey sandwiches.  But
I had never thought before about a turkey-and-dressing sandwich.

Re Subways, one of my current students who works at a local Subway found
it funny when I told her not long ago, while buying a turkey sandwich
there, that I had for many years sought out Subways when traveling and
loved their sandwiches but that it had not occurred to me until a month
or two ago that I could actually go to a Subway in Starkville.  That's
true.  I hadn't thought about it.  It hit me one day, and now I go there
often on weekends.

Not particularly any of those, at that time.  He was
the spoiled, first son of a doting Welsh family, and I
adored him, even during his frequent temper tantrums.

Most Sundays, I go to the office to get some
uninterrupted work done.  I always stop at Subway and
get a sub, tea, and 2 choc chip cookies, which I enjoy
at the office at my leisure.

Oh yes -- I always get a chocolate chip cookie in addition to my turkey
sandwich.

I just looked again at the Clarion-Ledger's website and saw this 6 p.m.
update.  I wonder whether Croom met TWD today (and am I mutant for
finding that "on" in sentence one a bit odd?):

************
Croom toured MSU's campus on today with the school's athletic director,
Larry Templeton. Croom, who flew back to Green Bay around 2:30 p.m.,
wasn't available for comment, but Templeton said that Croom was offered
the job Friday.

Templeton expects Croom to make a final decision by tonight or Monday
morning. When asked if he has a "Plan B" in case Croom decided not to
take the job, Templeton said, "I think y'all know me well enough to know
how optimistic I get. I think this is it."

Emily and I ate there - the year the red cat opened. The food
and the place were both terrific. Time for a repeat visit.

I hope they get him, if he will turn the program
around.  Something is niggling at the back of my mind
re: a certain prima donna quality about him, though.
Can't put my finger on it.  Maybe Dr. V. has more info.

It's an editing error, I would guess. The copy was probably written for
Monday's print edition (where it will say "on Sunday") and carelessly
repurposed for the Web site today.

They tamper with our water here.  It goes through seasons,
sometimes tasty, sometimes not so.  They also mess with the
hardness.  They're supposed to soften it but sometimes they do
better than others.  For the longest time we were drinking Brita
water, but we're back to just water from the tap, because it
tastes just fine these days.  We keep a half gallon pitcher in
the fridge in summer, but the water from the tap is cold enough
now too.

In Barcelona this summer, we got served beers in short wide half
liter glasses (as opposed to taller narrow British pint glasses).
I liked them so much I brought some home.  You can be lazy
pouring a bottle of beer into them because you have to try hard
to get the head to spill over the rim.  They're wonderful to fill
from the kitchen faucet and plonk down on the table at dinner time.

How do you feel about linguica?  Does it fall into the sausage or
non-sausage category for you?

Machinery, no.  Patience, and skill, and an intimate knowledge of poultry
anatomy, and some very, very sharp knives, yes.

On the other hand, maybe he was watching Monday Night Football.  John
Madden's been serving Turducken for years -- back when he used to announce
Thanksgiving Day games, he would hand the six legs to those he regarded as
the top players.

And those fund-raisers are so much worse than those embarrassing,
intrusive, and boring advertisments that eat up 20 minutes of every single
hour of commercial radio.  Right.

Despite the fact that I spent Thanksgiving with relatives, I had what was
mostly a relaxing four days.  However, I made the mistake of checking my
work email while I was staying at my mother's place.

Which is how I discovered that my boss has volunteered me for a project
that will probably entail 12-hour days for the next week, not that he knew
that.  One the one hand, it's a good thing in that I will be able to put a
considerable number of feathers in my cap if I can pull it off, which I
probably can; on the other hand, it entails 12-hour days for the next week.

So I guess I'm in a sort of post-tryptophan pre-adrenaline stupor.  I might
as well enjoy it while I can.

In America, the "UK/US" way is called "English" and is more commonly taught.
Which might explain why there are so few knitters! The way I prefer (your
"normal way") is called "continental" or "European" knitting. My mother
learned it in a Dr's waiting room from a woman from the Netherlands and
taught it to me.

Speaking of blogging, which we were briefly yesterday, I remember that
one of my very first blog entries was about the conservative bias of
NPR.  Iirc, my comment in the blog was that I had not heard the
particular incidents mentioned in the editorial -- iow, I wasn't doing
the labeling of NPR myself.  The editorial was about NPR's coverage of
some of the war goings-on and about how it had become just as much a
Republican propaganda machine as CNN and Fox.

The current discussion calls the former 'throwers' (as in throwing the
yarn over the needles) and the latter 'pickers'. I don't know anyone
who knits with the needles down, btw--you can 'throw' with needles up.

DUH!!!! My grad school roommate was named Dalen; I guess that there
was a reason for it. (She was Canadian.) It never occurred to me that
Dale was a place.

Bonnie, do Americans pronounce this Dale as one or two syllables?

I don't know.  Being a recluse, I've never heard anyone pronounce
out.  What are you being fiercely optimistic about?

I would expect it to be two syllables, with the 'a' as in 'father'.

There was an article in the Boston Globe about knitting making a comeback
among young women.  Evidently, stitch'n'bitches are quite common now.  They
showed a picture of one group that met in a Boston bar.  I'm doing my
part.  I taught the young daughter of an Inn owner how to knit this
summer.  She loves it.

That's a good question.  I taught her English but, for completeness sake, I
told her about Continental and showed her sort of how to do that.  I can't
really do it myself.  She found a book and taught herself the Continental
way.  She's making a hat out of round size nine needles that I loaned her
and from a book I loaned her with good bulky Norwegian yarn that Alyce sent
me.  I gave her two of the ten or so skeins.  The hat is turning out
beautifully.  She went and bought a contrast color of the same kind of yarn
to make stripes in the hat.

Ah.

Well, my impression is that most Americans say 'Dale' to rhyme with
'vale', but I can ask tonight, if you like.

Neither. Dale is pronounced as it would be in German. (The final -e is not silent)

Certainly not less free time.  My pizzas are tending to the minalist
approach---significantly less cheese and meat---partly because our tastes
have changed, partly because it behooves me to better control my
cholesterol intake.  These days, my pizza is a whole-wheat blend
crust;olive oil; garlic; herbs; fresh and sun-dried tomatoes; a smattering
of peppers (poblano, Fresno, Anaheim, if I have them); a bit of Stilton,
crumbled; pepperoni (but much less than formerly);and a dusting of good
Parmesan.

I keep a supply of prepared sausages in the freezer (Andouille, chorizo,
chaurice, loukaniko) that I use to flavor rice and bean dishes, soups,
chowders, and pasta sauces.  There is an excellent sausage maker in
southern Maine---he uses no meat by-products and his sausage (fresh or
smoked) contains 20% or less fat.  He also uses about the thinnest casings
I've ever seen, so it's easy to separate the casing from the sausage.

I'm not sure she really gave each kind a long try.  Perhaps one of her
friends told her Continental was better.  I'm glad that she learned it from
the start.  Her knitting is very even.  Quite nice.

I forgot to mention the other day about an article in one of the
papers---Portland or Boston---about a surgeon who does boneless turkey for
Thanksgiving.  He uses (what else?) a scalpel.  He even sews it with
surgical silk.

It is a fairly dense, spicy, cured pork sausage---a Portugese recipe.  If
you like Andouille and chorizo, you'll like linguica.

It's very good on pizza. One of the BA pizzerias used to offer
linguica.

There's a Chinese sausage that's quite good, but the name escapes me
at the moment.

Yep, that's one of the reasons I prefer Continental. It's easy to control
tension and knit either tight or loose consistently, by choice.

So you think that English knitters leave it to chance?!

I do know that I'm not a good Continental knitter, though, because I
cannot control tension at all: it's always way too tight.

= Hmmmm.  I thought there were other reasons for not wanting a head on ones
= beer.
=

I don't even know what the current wisdom on heads on beers is.
Boo?

If all I'm doing is pouring the nth beer into a glass, then I'd
prefer in my carelessness that it not spill over the top
accidentally.  This is more to avoid sticky rings than anything
else.  Besides, this is not being a connoisseur, this is chugging
a few back.

I have some nice whiskey glasses with lids and everything, but I
don't actually like to drink out of them unless I am trying to
pay extra special attention to the taste and the smell of it
(which I sometimes am).

How does that work?  Is is easy to immigrate
to Japan?  That thread on moving to Canada
made it sound like quite a chore, and that
was, well, Canada.

Japan used to be quite easy about allowing people to work there
forever. Becoming a citizen is quite difficult, however.

You can ask all the Koreans who have been living there for generations
without citizenship.

Sorry for joining late - I've already read the subsequent responses & the
envitable diversion of the thread.

Fried two USB ports?  That's rather odd.  Do you remember doing anything?
Nephew playing with a paperclip?

You can do one of several things.  You could take it to one of the stores
which makes repairs for people - mildly risky as you don't know how
stringent the hiring practices are to allow someone to open the customers'
cases.  You could get a 4-way hub and plug it into one of them and see if
the "all go" light comes on - the brand I use has a light indicating power &
signal strength and there's a toggle switch indicating whether it should use
the power coming in from the system or from an external power source.

As far as the PCI route, here's what they look like:

http://emicrox.com [1]

under quick search, enter:    CTRAS100  or CTRDL110  then click GO

if you click the appropriate link at either screen, you'll see the PCI card
with two USB slots.  I know PCI cards are made with more than two - I
believe you can get four or five as well.

There is another solution as well:  forward USB.  Most current motherboards
(and some older ones, depending upon how forward thinking the company was)
have pins on them to support additional USB ports, specifically for the
forward location.  The reason for this is you can purchase a special tray
which can hold a small 3 1/2" floppy drive plus two USB ports - very handy
for when you don't want to deal with the plugs anywhere else.  Then it's a
matter of plugging the cable into the correct location on the mobo and the
front ports and you've got two new ports.  It's not difficult, but I'd
advise caution as you're not dealing with a USB port any more, but the
replacement of a mobo if you hose things up.  The risk is much smaller if
you turn off the PC, then unplug the case and let the mobo & components
discharge for a few minutes.



[1] MicroExpress. It keeps looking as though they change their names on the
building.  They are about two miles from here.  I have fondly labelled them
"The Russians" as anyone walking in to purchase anything will notice a very
distinctive thick language floating about. It would appear others have taken
to that name as it's now used quite a bit [locally].  Even if you don't
build your own machines from scratch (or buy a prebuilt one then
replace|upgrade as you choose until it's completely your own), they have
pretty good prices.  Better than CompUSA, BestBuy, etc.  I would suggest,
however, that if you want to check for the nadir of prices, you check there,
http://www.pricewatch.com, and http://froogle.google.com.  PriceWatch
entries must pay to be there so they cannot afford to provide poor service.
Froogle (think "frugal") is one of Google's latest "in test" systems for
shopping the web for prices.  It's *very* interesting.

I have a hub, but not as fancy as that; it just has a power light.

My next computer will have this.

My current problem, which is apparently quite serious, is that I can't
install my mp3 player. I have two different cables for it, so I
suspect it's not the cable, the USB ports work. But for some reason, I
can't seem to get Windows to find the drivers.

It's more ususal now for a country to require you to ask for
permission to stay from your usual place of residence.  It's
pretty much a chore to move to any country, and the rules change
frequently.

When we moved here, even though we knew we were going to stay, we
came in on a tourist visa, and arranged all the details after the
fact.

Which version of Windows?

Unplug the cables, then go in and undo any information you can find relating
to that MP3 player - driver files, control panel hardware|software, etc.
I've even gone into the registry on tough cases.  Scrub the machine without
going overboard then shut down the machine, plug in the MP3 player, and see
what comes up during the boot.  Microsoft always says to "install the
software first".

(Microsoft has already stated in the news their next goal is to sell a
machine (and software) for every car in the world. That'll bring a whole new
meaning to "Windows just crashed."  And: "The day Microsoft makes something
which doesn't suck is the day they start making vacuum cleaners")

Back to your problem.

It's more difficult to diagnose remote, but typically the trick is to get
your machine to see it as though your machine is a virgin and has never seen
it before. Then it should try to install drivers fitting the new piece of
hardware.  If you get past that and it doesn't work, you could go (Start |
Settings | Control Panel | System | Device Manager) then bring up the piece
of hardware in question right-click to tell it you want to update the
driver, and it should go through the same paces as during bootup - CD first,
etc. etc.

Done. There is no software, only drivers, which MS can't find, even
though I tell it where to look. It doesn't seem to be able to read the
.inf file correctly, or something.

Rio 500--it's not made or supported any more, but these drivers are

They don't even provide drivers for the older models.

At one point they were bought by S3, but I haven't followed the ins

They make modems, among other things. I used to go past their building
in Sunnyvale on my way to the movies.

Wow.  I just looked it up on Amazon.  I paid $15 in a
bookstore and Amazon has it for $9, and new/slightly
used for $5 something.  Also read reviews here and
see I'm in for a disappointing ending.  Oh well, it's
going well so far, half through.

Not at all! I think that it's easier to control tension with the needle
 pulling the yarn through the loop, rather than wrapping yarn around the
 needle with the opposite hand.

Nope. I think when I knit English style, I have to take tight or loose
knitting as my hands deal it out that day. But when I knit in Continental
style, I can choose whether to knit relatively loosely or relatively
tightly, and the knitting will continue that way and be a nice consistent
tension throughout.

I can't remember if you crochet? I use the finger wrap I was taught at 8
when I learned to crochet, to control tension. If I am knitting too
tightly, I pull the needle slightly farther as it comes through the loop,
enlarging the stitch.

Also, consider posting to usenet. The only way I do it is via a throwaway.
Interestingly, spammers (or their ilk) seem to have grown less fond to
harvest email addresses from usenet.  The throwaways I use are going without
months without ever receiving any spam.

Subject: Rio PMP300 + Win2000 + RioPort
Date: 2001-09-04 17:56:50 PST


Can anyone help me? All I want to do is be able to copy an MP3 into my Rio
PMP300 in Windows 2000. The supplied software refuses to install in Win2000.
People have suggested RioPort to me but for some reason I can't get that to
work.

Here's what happens. I load up the software, go into options and select
PMP300 as the mobile device, connect the device up to my computer's parallel
port and click on the copy to device tab. The window just constantly
refreshes itself, buttons disappear and reappear and the select tracks from
database button is disabled (I have added tracks to the database). Every few
seconds the button becomes enabled for a split second so I click it and
select some MP3s to add. I then get told there isn't enough room on the
device (I only selected 1 3 minute MP3 - a few megabytes). The list which is
supposed to show what is currently on the device is empty and the format
device button doesn't do anything. In the meantime the device is showing the
words NOSONG with a flashing arrow and draining battery power very fast.

Help someone!

Thanks - this works fine! Seems a little slower at transfer than I remember

I think you don't understand my problem. These articles are either
about getting the Rio to work with XP or about uploading to the Rio. I
don't see one about getting the OS to recognize the Rio.

I do appreciate your help in thinking about my problem, however. I am
enormously frustrated, because I've gone from 2000 to XP back to 2000
with no problem, and all of a sudden, the OS doesn't know my player! I
have two of them--neither of them can connect.

I think the reason it's harder for me is that when I knit English, I
control the tension with my right hand, and so when I knit
Contintental, I want to control the tension with the hand holding the
yarn, but really, the picking hand controls it, too.

We definitely have different English knitting styles, then.

I feel that I can choose to knit loosely or tightly either way--except
that I haven't quite mastered it in Continental. (But I'm close!)

I used to be a very tight knitter, but I spent a lot of time on
knitting more loosely, and now I am a relatively loose knitter.

>>I do know that I'm not a good Continental knitter, though, because I
>>cannot control tension at all: it's always way too tight.

I haven't crocheted for years, but I do wrap the yarn around my
fingers--little finger and index. That was one of the first things my
fingers remembered when I started knitting again, which was spooky. I
still couldn't tell you how I wrap it without having yarn in my hand,
but I can't knit without wrapping the yarn.

A veritable clue! I'm going to try this. I prinicipally want a better
way to knit ribbing. Better meaning more efficient and less sucky looking when
I do 1 x 1.

Do English knitters not wrap the yarn?

Long may the cap feathers wave, and happy adrenaline.
I like to get projects like that.  I am a projectile person.

being jammed by the DNC.  They know how to chose their marks.

I made the Party Potatoes to avoid having to deal with last-minute mashing, the Bacon Onion Dip, and  the Spicy Maple Walnuts (not very spicy, wouldn't do again) from those books. Glad you like them, Betty. I didn't get the latest one yet -- it'll be on my Christmas list.

My sister brought the candied yams, but I'll take a look at that recipe.

You have to make enough. I had my mom and sisters bring their own tupperware to bring home leftovers. They both took stuffing and I still have some left.

Thank you! It wasn't too bad at all; Barbara had a "surprise" party
for me on Saturday, and managed to convince many of the people who
were at my 30th (that'd be, um, 20 years ago) to come. That many
people (plus a gaggle of kids) in the same little house feels a lot
more crowded now, thanks to more furniture and a lower tolerance
for student-party-like conditions, I think. But it all went well,
despite my "sore throat from hell" that isn't strep but just isn't
going away. Sigh (croak)...

A quick update (I hate to admit I haven't been reading in detail
lately): I went to Brazil for a week on business (did I mention
that possibility here?) It was Sao Paulo, and I had been led to
expect a crowded, boring, dangerous, and very polluted place. But I
had a much more interesting and less unpleasant time than I had
expected, and saw a number of stereotypes shattered before my eyes.
I was scheduled to go back there last week for a couple of days,
but that was cancelled at the last moment, and it now looks as
though further trips are unlikely. So I'm very glad I went when I
had the chance.

Brazil - ah, the language. I find Portuguese fairly easy to read
(with a basic grounding in Latin and French), but very hard to
pronounce and near impossible to listen to. This was a bit of a
shock; I was expecting a sort of version of Spanish, and it just
ain't so. But still it was interesting that I was sometimes able to
catch an entire sentence or even discussion topic in the middle of
the mush, and translate it for one or the other colleague. One
colleague speaks Italian, and the other English only, and often the
Italian speaker and I would catch overlapping parts of a
conversation, or be able to get different things across to a cab
driver, much to the amazement of the unilingual guy. But then I was
amazed at his ability to just sort of blast his way through being
the "ugly Canadian" (we of course pretended he was American :-) )
and shouting loudly in English.

Cutting it short for now...

If they remain for generations without coming up

Karen said "living there" -- she didn't say anything about the lack of
major hurdles.

A friend went a while back and had the same experience. I wonder where
the sterotypes come from?

You'd have to pretend he was American, of course. How... amazing.

He's been gotten.  I don't know what time today -- I've been swamped

while ago, I checked the Clarion-Ledger's website and saw that he has

Isn't andouille pig intestines?  I don't know what chorizo is.

No, it is not easy to enter Japan on a tourist visa (which is what it
sounds like somebody planning to be there for a week was on) and stay
there to work.  It is very much illegal, and they do not take kindly to
people who try it.  One of my colleagues who went to Japan for a year in
the late '80s decided to go on with just his passport since his work
visa hadn't arrived yet.  It took major interceding by top university
(Meisei) authorities to spring him from the clutches of the immigration
people.

It is easy to immigrate if one has a job lined up in advance, which is a
requirement for getting a work visa, and has the visa in hand.  I know
plenty of people who have moved to Japan more or less permanently.
(They won't become citizens, of course.  It's *EXTREMELY* difficult to
become a Japanese citizen -- read almost impossible.)

What does this mean?  That a US citizen moving to another country to
work would be required by that other country to get the permission of
the USA?  That seems odd.

There's a whole Japanese/Korean cultural animosity

this with something else?

Chinese/Vietnamese?

I'm getting confused now.  I thought Rita said that it needed to be

I could quite likely find that column since I know it was in my earliest
days of blogging, meaning it would be in the oldest archives.  I don't
remember where I read it or who wrote it or the specific incidents being
cited.  I just remember that it was a diatribe about disappointment in
NPR's conservative bias.

Because of the biased testing?  Biased both against non-cooks and

since we call it "dressing."

Damn.  That sounds easier than when we moved here

It isn't that you need to have a job, it's that the job must sponsor
your visa. The former is easy, the latter more difficult. Without some
sort of sponsor, you can't get a visa to stay in Japan. I do know
people who stayed years, but Japan is much more socialist than most
democracies, and they certainly believe in minding everyone else's
business, so you are unlikely to remain undiscovered. I was never
asked for alien registration, but I know someone who was, and he had a
terrible time of it.

Yes. But there also Americans who have lived in Japan for several
generations without citizenship. The ones I know are
missionary-related, came over immediately postwar. The Koreans have
been in Japan for longer.

Barbara is a master surpriser (thinking again about that SF bday
dinner).  It sounds like a great event.

Indeed you did mention it here, but I couldn't remember whether you had
said when.  I was calling out to you at one point to tell how the
Canadian medical system works but decided you must be in Brazil.  (I
can't remember that brief thread now -- it was some of the old stuff
about Canadians pouring across the border to get US medical care to keep
from having to wait forever in Canada.)

I know zero about Portuguese but remember when hearing it thinking that
it sounded like Spanish with a French accent.

Me:

Egad!  I did not mean to imply that andouille
was like boudin!!!!

I meant that the word "boudin" means something
entirely different here than it does in France,
in the same way "andouille" is entirely different
here.

You overestimate Starkpatch, or (more likely)

a) have forgotten Natalie's shopping habits
b) overestimate chorizo's appeal to the world in general

        Thickness.  The turkey, stuffing, and cranberry make for a
heavy sandwich -- you need a bread that can hold it.

No. I don't expect her to ever buy it--this is the woman who would
never buy pepperoni, after all.

Actually, I'm not sure that *I* have ever had it. But I know that it's
Mexican, and that they are everywhere.

Probably.  It's possible that they might not discover you if you didn't
try to leave or enter the country.  But supposedly the police or whoever
can ask you at any time to show your alien card.  (I was told that the
punishment for being asked for it and not having it on your person was
that you have to write an essay telling why you left it at home.  I
assume that in that case you do produce it later for the officials --
i.e., that you do have to show you possess one.  Nobody ever stopped me
on the streets and asked to see mine -- though I did use it for things
like getting a library card and setting up a video-rental account, but I
always had it with me, even if just strolling along the nearby river.)
And what if you were suddenly injured and had no alien card (or passport
if you were a tourist -- the stamp in the passport would make clear when
you entered the country -- all of the Asian countries I've been to are
into stamping passports, unlike European countries)?  Iow, I think it
would be pretty risky to be an illegal alien in Japan.

No, you're not confusing it.  Supposedly some Japanese families require
tracing the bloodline of a child's <intended> to make sure there's no
Korean blood.  (I'm basing that on things I've read plus hearing it from
a good friend whose wife is Japanese.)  My Japanese friends were not
into that prejudice, though.  One of my best Japanese friends (the
person whose house I was in when cooking on tv -- on that visit a couple
of years after living there) -- has very good Korean friends both in
Korea and in Japan.  She took me one time to a glorious hole-in-the-wall
Korean restaurant owned by a friend of hers.  Then some of my other
friends took me to another Korean restaurant when I mentioned having
loved that hole-in-the-wall place (a much fancier restaurant that had
food not nearly as good as the hole-in-the-wall).  This is getting too
long.  There was only one time in Japan that I heard anti-Korean
sentiment.  It was from a student in the English-Speaking Club.  We were
playing some kind of guess-the-country game -- a sort of "twenty
questions" type game.  He was "it."  When somebody asked, "Is it close
to Japan?" he replied, "Yes.  TOO close -- and rolled his eyes."  The
answer turned out to be Korea.

That's okay--it's the kind of thing someone close to me is struggling
with, too, so I forget that not everyone deals with immigration
issues.

The complaint in several reviews was
that the story ended too abruptly.

Linguica is available in surprising places. I can't believe that NO

THANK YOU, RICHARD!!  This is one of those moments in life when you
finally <find out> -- and it's a great feeling.  For years I've heard
andouille mentioned in relation to Louisiana cuisine, mentioned as if
it's not something <gross>.  But the only time I have ordered andouille
was in a small cafe somewhere in France -- can't remember where --
somewhere in the south of France, I think.  It's the only time in my
life that I have actually thought I might barf at just the smell of the
stuff.  (I once had a pile of fat in Germany that was borderline
barf-worthy, but it was tame compared to the andouille day.)  I not only
couldn't take a bite of the andouille, I found it almost impossible to
shuffle it around with the fork to make my not eating it look a bit less
tacky.  It was grotesque.

I thought he was talking about where it's from, not where you can get it.

As I said, I assumed you were talking about where it's from.  I have no
idea whether it exists in Starkpatch since I have never had occasion to
peruse the sausage offerings in a grocery store.

        As surprising as you may find it, I haven't visited every
single market in the St. Louis area.  I think of linguica as
the type of thing you can buy in any local supermarket,
which is true in southeastern Massachusetts, where you can
buy many Portuguese foods just about anywhere.  Perhaps one
day I will have endless days of free time stretching before
me and I can look in remote corners of the county for these
little delicacies that I grew up taking for granted; until
then, however, I'll just settle for eating them when I go
home to a place where they are obtained with little effort.

        I have never seen linguica in any of the supermarkets,
markets, or butcher shops of lovely Florissant, which is a
pretty big place, but not very attractive to immigrants from
Portugal for some reason.

Afghanistan, Mexico, and Vietnam, yes.  Portugal, not so much,

you know?  But, you're right, a little linguica could be
lurking at the Mobile Mart just waiting for me to discover
it.  Until that fateful day, I hold my breath and pine
fiercely for just one bite of its firm, succulent and spicey
flesh with just a little greasey juice running down my chin.
  And some scrambled eggs. With a little salt.  And maybe
some toasted and buttered sweet bread.  That would be pretty
good.

That is how I had interpreted what you wrote.  So now I need to find out

Something about "would never buy" suggests <disapproval>.  I've simply
never had any reason or desire to look at sausage offerings in a grocery
store.

You don't seem dim at all, but hey -- you may not have done it yourself,
but you have conversed ftf with somebody who had within less than an
hour before had a Japanese work visa put into her hands.  You were the

procured my Japanese work visa at the consulate in NO.

For an explanation of the ingredients (but not necessarily the proportions
of each), see:

http://www.sausagekitchen.com/products.htm

This is the place that I buy sausage.  One couple here thinks that his
stuff is disappointing---not "fiery" enough.  My position is that
additional "fire" can easily be applied via chipotles, etc.

I had never really thought before about <regionality> of grocery stores,
even chains, until one time when love,judith was visiting here.  She
loves browsing in grocery stores and was fascinated by things like the
substantial shelf space devoted to grits.  She said that Allan (her late
husband) had loved grits and that she had therefore bought them but that
they were difficult to find in RI -- not shelves and shelves of them
like here.  Reminds me of rice in Japan -- mega-large bags of white
rice, very small bags of brown rice.

??  So what does your "I would be surprised" sentence mean?  It talks
about where you can get it.

I agree. I think these are also best when learned in one's youth. It
was nice to take up knitting again without missing a beat even though
it'd been many, many years.

It's about a half hour north of West Springfield, but plan on heavy traffic
on Route 9 between 91 and Amherst, so I'd budget between 45 minutes and 60
minutes to get from Exit 4 of the pike to Amherst.

You can also get off the Pike at exit 8, Palmer, and take Route 32 north,
but I don't know exactly where that puts you. Maybe it intersects with 9?
There's a sign for UMASS at that exit, but I've never done it that way.

I never said I was talking about where it's from. I said *he* was
talking about where it's from.

I changed the subject slightly, to the subject of where one can get
it.

It wasn't a nonsequitur, it was an expansion of the topic. You are the
queen of this, so I'm surprised you don't recognize it.

How the world works doesn't seem odd to me.  How your sentence worked
does.

That is clear.  Your earlier statement wasn't.

Yes, we have.  We even have a Mexican grocery store.
But I've never seen fresh meats in there.  I suppose
they are reserved for the local Latino restaurants.
But down near the coast, one could probably find it.
For some reason, this leaves me unshocked.

Fwiw, I did learn to knit in my youth.  Hated it.  (And I realize that

Where is Alec?  Remember how he used to trash people for this kind of
posting, asking why they didn't do it off-list?  NB:  I *like* this kind
of posting.  It's how Words-L works.  I like that it works this way.
But suddenly I started thinking about Alec's complaints and wondered why
he seems erratic in them.

Naturally.  The whole thing is a scam anyway.  You're not going
to have a job lined up in some foreign land unless you have some
basis there.  So either you're going to misuse a tourist visa to
get that basis and then have a company supporting your presense
with enough clout to override the rules, or you're going to be
some kind of low threat to the social system or something of that
ilk, or you're going to start out as an illegal alien, or at some
point you're just going to have to cough up that round trip air
fare so you can physically go home and get thing lined up the way
they want you too.  I suppose by the time the Columbians (which
is where we seem to have our illegal aliens from at the moment)
know they can go home and come back legally they're ready for a
visit home anyway.

I didn't hear the piece, but I got the idea the other day from
the BBC that much of south and central america is supported by
the money their emigrants send home.

They didn't then, but they do now, treat you like a brand new
driver here.  It costs about $1000 here to get your drivers
license when all is said and done.  I love telling people that it
cost $10 (or it did then, anyway) in California, and that your
parents can teach you.

Ah... I'm a thrower.  That's how it has been passed down in my family.  I
have seen someone knit Continental and I'm sure with practice could pick it
up, but I do just fine.  Finished a fun fur scarf for my niece and am
starting mittens to match Edward's hat.

Are there any crocheters out there? I don't do this as much.  My
grandmother used to make beautiful doilies.  She showed me how, but I don't
have the time or patience right now to do that fine work.  She also
tattered, but I never learned that one.

        I create them in PageMill (a very old authoring program) and
then upload them.

The best sausage I've ever had was some Vietnamese sausage we had in
Providence with love, judith. Man, was it good. I think Heather ordered it.

Different strokes are becoming clearer and clearer to me.  The idea of
relieving stress via hand crafts boggles my mind.  I find hand crafts
horrendously stress-producing.  Trying to do craftish stuff makes me
want to scream.

I have a suspicion that sausages from one region to
another are not all that unlike each other.  Different
seasonings, of course; different casings; and often,
different names.  Haggis is really a large sausage,
for instance, as is blood pudding.  You wouldn't find
anything called chorizo in this part of
Alabama, but you might find something that tastes very
similar.

??  So why do you say that you were talking about where it's from
instead of where you get it, when you clearly said "get it"?   That
makes no sense to me and is not like any discourse I'm familiar with in
English.  I realize that non-sequiturs happen, but I would not say that
that is "how discourse works in English."  Please explain.

You are very welcome.  I love to have a bottle on hand for fun.  My friend
Julie who moved to VA earlier this year called me at 10am one Sat. morning.
She was in a liquor store and couldn't remember the name.  When I told her,
she yells over at the person "OLD FART"  wonder if anyone else heard her
and thought she was being insulting.

Ugh.  I've seen things like "newsreaders" mentioned on various e-mail
programs, including Mozilla (which I continue to use happily -- thank
you again, Pete!).  But I don't know how one uses them.  If I want to
<do> usenet, I still do it via nn in shell.

Re not having shell access, how do you create/maintain webpages?  I
wouldn't have the foggiest idea how to do that without shell access.

I freely stand up and say I intended to send it off-list, but in responding
to a note of Adam's didn't check off the appropriate box and the rest is
history.

The nature of this request and my response will hopefully not allow this to
morph into something resembling the reptilian nature of the highway system.

I don't think she has a name, just Old Fart's Wife.  We can get Old Fart
readily, but not his wife, so one of the stores offered to order it for me.
They're a small store and are looking to generate business.  I think I'll
have to help them out for being so helpful.

That reminds me, I should send a set to Julie and her husband.  I don't
think they've tried OFW yet.

Hmmm.  We're having a from/in problem.  I (me personally) cannot
replace "from" in my sentence above with "in".  Yet you have still
managed to get confused by it even though you do know how the
world works and it does seem odd to you.

In order to move permanently to the Netherlands from the USA, you
must request that permission of the Netherlands while you are
still in the USA.

The down side to a dynasty lies in the fact that it
usually involves heirs who are capable of morphing
into very selfishly motivated rivals.

Hi Adam,

  Hope you can help me.  I need some basic info on getting to UMASS,
Amherst.  We have tickets to a 2pm showing of the Nutcracker by the Moscow
Ballet on Sat.  I figure about 2.5 hours to Springfield, and then how much

I hope I always have shell access since that sounds above my head.  All
I know how to do is long on and vi the pages.

I haven't tried it that way, but I don't see why not---with a good spicy

My mother taught me to knit, but told me to ask my grandmother when I
wanted to learn to crochet.  Although she had been shown, my mother didn't
crochet.

She taught Lillia to knit when I was pregnant with Edward.  Lil made a cute
pair of booties for him.  They visited my grandmother to have the ties
crocheted.

But just how many knitting clubs do you have?  The paucity might be
quite shocking to someone as easy shockable as Karen apparently is.

Why not?  To quote Janet, "This is words-f*****g-l!"

Have a good trip.  We're bound for the Bay Area tomorrow, via Rockland and

You were pretty obviously, at least in my mutant view, talking about
where one GETS it.

I'm a great believer in subject morphs, as I've said many times before.
  But that is quite a different thing from claiming that "where it's
from" and "where one gets it" mean the same thing.

May you always have shell access.

But, should the time come when you don't, have no fear.  You have
learned to navigate PPP connections with Trumpet Winsock and ADSL
connections, and are from a time before Mosaic and popping mail.
You'll figure it out (you'll bitch mightily, but you'll figure it

Hey, hey!  That's something else I've done!  It was another one of those
things that little girls were <supposed to> learn how to do.  (My mother
was quite good at it, I might add.  I still have a beautiful piano-bench
pad she needlepointed and gave me when I had an odd-sized piano bench.
It's stuffed into the top of a closet, but I just can't bring myself to

But please understand that I am glad you asked it on-list!  I think that
kind of thing is part or what Words-L is about.  It's just that I
suddenly thought about Alec's nasty comments to Bethany in particular

I guess I'd have to ask the Chamber of Commerce, there
is bound to be at least one.  I am not a joiner, I do
solo needlepoint, and when I gossip, I "cut through"
the chase.

It takes a murder - suicide to shock my jaded spirit.

I took a practice GMAT the other day and in the verbal part you
have to find the best way of phrasing the underlined part of the
sentence.  I understood what they were trying to say but I had a
miserable time trying to say it.

How the hell am I going to try to go for an MBA if I find the
premise of just getting through the standardized test too much to
be bothered with?

Just as surprising as my crumbling verbal skills were my
crumbling math skills.

Not wishing to post <stitch>, but only to be truthful, yes, I learned to
crochet on Ruth Ladd's porch the summer I was eight. I can crochet, knit,
 tat, net, make bobbin and needle lace including teneriffe, hardanger,
hedebo, pulled thread, and cutwork, and also do freehand embroidery. I can't
stand crosstitch, but know how. I do everything when the mood strikes and
not much since my eyes changed and I have to wear glasses to thread a needle.

I like crochet very much, but my daughter is much better at it than I, with
a nice regular tenion; I am one of those relaxed needleworkers Karen was
 talking about earlier.

For casual reading, I use Google Groups.  It's been so long since
I've posted anything, I'd probably use it to post as well, giving
it a throwaway account as an email address.  You've probably got
a newsreader installed in your browser, but you'll have to go
read your ISP's web pages to figure out what news server to point
it to.

Chorizo is often packaged. I would have thought that every Mexican
grocery would have chorizo and a couple kinds of Mexican cheese.

But I know nothing--I don't eat Mexican food except under duress.

Probably a Dutch one.  I'm in no hurry to go anywhere, and the
Rotterdam School of Management and Nyenrode both have excellent
reputations (if I'm just aiming right now, I might as well aim
for the top).  It's been bubbling around in my head for the past
two years, and I still haven't got my goals straight for why I'm
going to go for this, which is going to be rather key for
admission, I've gathered.  I'm still farting aroung with this in
a way that I don't even have a good timeline for the thing put
together.

That said, the University of Chicago has an outpost in Barcelona
that's tempting.

Oh yeah.  No doubts there.  It's just going to take a bit of
persistent effort.

What was amazing to me about my completely crumbled verbal skills
was not that they'd gone, but how far they'd gone.  That, and
that while I shift and sort stuff all the time for work, the
shifting and sorting that go into writing a coherent essay are
somehow different.

Also, it's an online test that you need to use scratch paper for,
and even that backandforthing is going to take practice.  It's a
damn distracting way to take a test.

I basically use the view that's half code and half the web page, so
you can see what you're doing. I also like the fact that you see the
whole directory structure you're working in, and you can see the whole
directory structure of the site you're uploading to. I've found that
very useful.

I don't think it's any more cumbersome than using vi or emacs, and it
has the advantage of directory trees and painless ftp.

I do think you need to clarify your goals. But I have no doubt that
you can do this and be successful at what you want to be.

Oh, yes. I think I've talked before about confusing r's and l's in
writing letters. That's when I knew I had to come back. It happens
drip drip drip every day, and then whammo, something reminds you that
you are becoming a stranger to your native language. I knew someone
like that, who wasn't really comfortable in Japanese but couldn't
speak English well any more. (She was a Nisei who was visiting Japan
and was caught by the war; ended up getting married and staying there.)

Yes. And to be fair, you might have trouble writing an essay anyway,
even if you were here.

HA! I did that recently for something else. Sucks.

I have done all kinds of sewing, knitting, crocheting,
counted cross stitch, needlepoint, embroidery, etc. . . .
and I do them specifically because I find it so
relaxing.  I am never in my intellect when I do these
things, and it clears my mind to just quit using it for
a while.  Handwork is like a meditation, to me.

I long ago had to give up my cosmopolitan cred, but this is one of those
little things that reminds me how little I know about that part of America
which is east of the Rockies.

For me, linguica is one of the standard pizza items.  Not that every pizza
place has linguica on its menu, but enough pizza places do that anyone who
even occasionally goes out for pizza would have seen it often enough to at
least ask what it is.

It astonishes me to find that linguica is regarded as a <foreign> food item
in much of these United States.  I really need to travel more.

For what it's worth, maybe it's just that I've never had the good stuff,
but I'm not particularly fond of linguica, nor chorizo either.

I really do believe that Dreamweaver was designed by geeks who coded
by hand for a long time. It's NOTHING like Front Page. It's genuinely
useful.

Part of the reason I feel that way, I think, is because every time I
wish Dreamweaver could do something, I discovered it did.

I don't know why you're dragging in subjectivity, nor moderation either.

"Moderate" is an area on the political spectrum, just the same as
"conservative" or "liberal".  A person or a news outlet may have a
preference (a bias, if you will) for viewing the world in moderate terms
just as one may have a preference for viewing the world in conservative or
liberal terms, in exactly the same way that a person may have a preference
for being neither fat nor thin but somewhere in the middle.

Exactly.  An audience which has a conservative bias is going to be turned
off by any news outlet that does not.  They may not be as turned off by a
moderate outlet as by a liberal one, but turned off they will be.

I don't know anything about public broadcasting in Alabama, nor for that

station has raised fund-raising to an art form.

I don't recall seeing linguica commonly in stores in east Tennessee, but
it's pretty common here on the New England coast---again perhaps because of
the Portugese influence.  I don't think it is considered foreign any more
than Andouille, pepperoni, and chorizo are.  Chorizo, incidentally is also
fairly common around here in the specialty or high-end shops; linguica (and
another Portugese-origin sausage which name escapes me) are in the
supermarkets.

I highly recommend that attitude (of using the dual view, and working in the
piece that's easiest). I dump large amounts of text into the webview, format
quickly using the commands in that view (for instance, highlighting a bit of
text and rightclicking "properties" lets me quickly add links, choose font
and size, etc), and turn to the code view for finetuning.

What's nice about having both views open is that you can check the effects
of coding quickly, to see if you've made a typo.

We are maintaining our tradition of going to the Bay Area in times of
thermal extremes.  Usually, in January, we are there during the coldest
week of the winter; this past summer, we were there during the hottest
days, now we are headed back during the (so far) coldest days of this late
autumn.

No flurries here, although they were muttering about them last night.

Not that Alec needs anyone to defend him, but as I recall, his comments
came after an exceedingly prolonged and pointless discussion of travel
plans and options that grew out of one of her "Dear Diary" periods.

I eat <lots> of pizza, but the only time I've ever seen linguica on the menu was at Mystic Pizza in Connecticut. No wonder. I think your statement a vast generalization, and not the case in many pizza-eating parts of the country. Like ones where Italians are making the pizza...

I was shocked not to find andouille (for my turkey gumbo) at the A&P yesterday. Good thing Bruce still goes into the city.

I haven't yet tried The Mermaid (nor have I even started the model to hang there),

I'm going to make a mess of the spelling here but what do you think of
locanico?  I used to be able to find it locally but have not for quite a
long time.  I might be more successful if I would travel to Lowell to
shop.  Nah, not doing that.

Below is what I believe are some of the last messages from Heather. At the time she was still with the chocolate guy but not at the chocolate job.

That story isn't very interesting.

Heather works for the government now, while trying to figure out what to do
about law schools.

I think Sylvia found my web page, but it's a bit out of date.

After that I worked at UMASS in the budget office, and now I work for the
government. Woo-hoo.

Maybe someday I'll be a lawyer.

Right now I devote far too much time to a certain improv comedy group...

I'm still in love with the guy who designed the chocolate bars. 2 years
now. A new Heather record.  But how is my favorie Bookrat?

Betty said she likes <substantial> breads, which I interpret as either dense or crusty. But most of my turkey sandwich eating has always been on floppier loaf breads (that's how I was raised), and with good results. And toast is a fine thing too. I'm sure more <substantial> breads are fine too, but not necessary. Just don't pile it too high.

I do like denser bread usually but sometimes, like in potato chip

That depends on what you mean by "holidays". The semester opens Jan 10, and
 it's difficult indeed to leave work during the start of the new
 semester - and we have had heavy snowfalls in the first 2 weeks of the
 New Year the last couple of years.

 If you mean "MLKJr" weekend, it would be tough. If you
 mean "the  end of January or early Feb", I think it would be workable,
 dependent on snow. There is usually a week of thaw, typically during
 the local WinterFest. So it's not all blizzards!

 When is Snowbash, though? I'd hate to interfere with Adam's party!

What version do you have? I have Dreamweaver MX. On the View menu, the
first three items are Code, Design, and Code and Design. Click the 3rd
one.

You may also want to go to Edit>Preferences and change some things. I
have mine open to a blank file, for example.

Yesterday at the little A&P (as opposed to the big A&P) there was tons of chorizo, tons of sopressata, but no linguica (I don't think, wasn't looking, but went pretty thoroughly through the area) and no andouille.

I also want to make a cherry pie, but they don't have pitted sour cherries (canned or jarred). I might have to go to the German butcher shop.

Well, there's one way to deal with books collecting dust in the library...
(here's the original /. article) http://tinyurl.com/xevi

"To help nourish lean budgets, public libraries are increasingly eyeing the
e-commerce used-book market (http://tinyurl.com/xevz) as an alternative to
the long-standing community tradition of the local book sale. Abebooks
reports a tenfold surge in public library clients over the last three years.
The payoff can be handsome. One library group boasts of getting $250 for a
few boxes of 'miserable, horrible stuff' and another $110 from a World War
II vet for a book about his Army regiment. A public library in Texas
auctioned 300 items on eBay to help plug a budget hole. And a Seattle suburb
moved its annual library sale of some 80,000 books to Amazon, citing
expediency and extra cash as motivators."

Which version of Dreamweaver are you using?

In Version 6.0, I have the option of parking the toolbars at the top of
 the screen and letting them float, Mac style. I park them. The first
 three icons on the main toolbar are for "Show Code View", "Show Code &
 Design Views" and "Show Design View". Or you can reach them from the
 pulldown menu for Views.

A pathetically old one.  I don't understand how, as our IT
department is only three years old.  Certainly since it's
licensed and we're paying for it, I ought to be able to coax them
into an upgrade.  I have it, but I can't really justify using it,
as the only web page development I do doesn't get used anywhere.
So maybe that's the same with everyone else.  I think all the
real corporate content is outsourced somewhere.

Aha! I thought it might be overkill to mention earlier, that the current
version of Dreamweaver (since abt 4.0 or 5.0) incorporates HomeSite, which
was the base web editor for Cold Fusion (Macromedia bought CF). Earlier
versions might not be so functional because these are <features> of HS.

I love apple pie (don't need no cranberries), but I haven't tasted my granny's cherry pie in so long...someone's gotta do it. My dad's jonesin'. I thought I could make one for Christmas dessert. I see a couple places to buy them on the web if all else fails.

UltraEdit.  $30.  It's about all I've ever used for web work (including
before it received several awards).

When I used to do lots of online technical support in Charles Carroll's
email-based lists, people would ask which software to use. UltraEdit bare
none. TextEdit is a close second.  UltraEdit is nice now that UltraCompare
is out and when you run File|Compare in UltraEdit with UltraCompare
installed, it'll switch to UltraCompare automagically [sic].

Didn't someone say they had a Vit D shortage?

Today's Topic: Vitamin D Deficiency

Vitamin D deficiency is thought to have disappeared from most
developed countries.  However, rickets, the failure of bones to
mineralize, is reappearing to the dismay of physicians and many
others.  There are three main issues that have led to this condition:
promotion of long-term breast feeding without vitamin D supplements,
decreased exposure to the sun, and high prevalence of rickets in
groups immigrating from less developed countries.  Less severe
deficiency of vitamin D is also becoming more common.

Vitamin D is produced in the skin upon exposure to ultraviolet rays
from the sun.  Sunscreen prevents this from happening.  Fatty fish and
milk are the richest sources of vitamin D, but breast milk is very low
in this nutrient.  This issue is considered so important that a
12-page seminar report for physicians was published on this topic in
the October 25, 2003 issue of the Lancet.

HERE'S WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW: The Recommended Dietary
Intake of vitamin D ranges from 200 IU a day for children and young
adults to 600 IU for the elderly and up to 1000 IU for pregnant women.
The latter amounts cannot be obtained through diet alone.  Although we
have been historically concerned about vitamin D toxicity from excess,
inadequate intake and endogenous production are greater problems
today.

We were, of course, visiting a central business area, and were in a
very privileged position. But still, I was surprised.

Macho "Latin" culture.

Seemed much more European - polite and restrained. Obviously we
untrained Canadians probably missed plenty of subtle signals, but
it wasn't unlike say France.


Everyone smokes everywhere.

Every restaurant we encountered was completely non-smoking, as were
all offices. Even a couple of bars were not very smoky. *Nothing*
like France!


Third world poverty "in your face".

Far fewer panhandlers on the downtown streets than in Toronto or
New York. A few obviously very poor people collecting junk (old
construction material etc.) in little carts, but very
unobtrusively. A very few people actually sleeping on the streets.
All this is, of course, not to deny the existence of millions of
people living in the favelas, but they are relatively isolated or
at least invisible from the business and tourist areas.


Violence on the streets - "you can't leave your hotel at night".

Hard to fully evaluate. Certainly every even slightly upscale
restaurant or store has guards outside (unarmed), with more of them
after dark. But it's not really clear what they are guarding
against. The locals' usual answer is "the public police won't come
if you call, so that's why there are all these private police". But
when pressed, no one could mention ever seeing an actual incident
where these private police had done anything to speak of. Someone
mentioned having had a grab & run of a laptop computer in broad
daylight outside the bank office, but I know people in New York
that happened to, at gunpoint, and certainly it's not unknown in
Toronto.

Bank branches *do* look threatening - several well armed guards
outside each one, and I don't know what the procedure is to get
inside and do your business. But there are (unguarded) ATMs on
street corners, and people use them without evident fear.

We went to a large park the first Sunday, and *it* was full of
guards (and some "public" police). But other than that presence, it
was just like Central Park or the Toronto Islands - crowded with
families, food vendors, bike rentals, assorted cultural stuff, etc.


No infrastructure - nothing works, etc.

An element of truth - best not to drink the water, horrible
traffic, the supposed lack of public police, etc. But there's
plenty of hi-tech: many buffet restaurants hand you a card on
entry, you then have your plate weighed and swipe the card each
time you fill it, and then when you leave the detailed bill is
printed up as you hand the card in. Public internet kiosks all
over, a modern clean (but noisy) subway that people certainly use
well into the evening, and all kinds of shopping easy to find.


The food is either weird and exotic or bland and over meaty.

There is a huge and uniformly excellent variety in all styles. I
ate nothing I regretted in the whole week. How people stay so thin
is hard to imagine. There is certainly a long-lunch culture (but no
siestas), and the evening meal is rarely before 7:30 or 8:00.

MX is nice.  I've used it for multi-page sites or to play around with CSS
or table stuff.

You can download a 30-day trial version from Macromedia to see what you're

The upcoming ARF banquet is driving me bonkers.  Here was a typical
communication of today:

*********
Natalie -
I am counting 122 as the list this year to this date.  Ask them how much
leeway we have to have extra people.  I am thinking if they allow us to have
a few extra at the last minute as we have in the past, 115 would probably be
a good number.  Sometimes they have allowed as many as 10% as an add on but
I think they mentioned 5% last year as a potential add on.  We may have one
or two more to want to come and history tells me we will have six or so who
cannot come at the last minute.  If the weather is bad, it will be about
twice that much.  That is why if we can make a firm number guarantee a day
or two before, we can guess better.  You should talk to them and do whatever
you feel right about.
**********

That was from the treasurer.  And then the pres sent me e-mail saying
he's going to be out of pocket the rest of the week and asking me to
find a red rug and a fancy chair for Santa Claus to sit on.  And it
goes on and on, right here at the time I've got students coming in with
the usual end-of-semester problems and pleas, etc. etc.

I'm sick of this f'ing banquet!  Retired life ain't easy.

I love it.  Another thing I have a hard time finding in St.
Louis.  I found it on the menu of the Grecian Gourmet, a
little mall restaurant that is basically a pita sandwich
shop.  The two teens working there didn't know what it was
until the dad told them where to get it and how to cook it
up.  I was very fussy -- wanted it with feta and lemon --
the boys were mystified, but the dad apologized to me by
explaining they were only half Greek :).  He ended up making
my sandwich properly.

        You don't have to go all the way to Lowell, btw -- still
plenty of Greeks in Roslindale near the Arboretum.

        Karolin's grandmother has sent me beautiful pieces of her
tatted lace the past few Christmases.  I have a gorgeous
tatted lace nativity scene she made for me -- in a frame
hand-made by Karolin's grandfather.

Comcast ruined a great day - last day of classes for the semester.

On Nov. 7, I received a DSL bill. I wrote a check, mailed it.

Yesterday, I received a DSL bill - not reflecting a Nov. payment. I
called, was told that if I would mail a check for the two months, I would
be okay. I mailed such a check. (Who knows where the Nov. 7 check is?)

When I got home, I found another bill from Comcast saying that if the
bills weren't paid by 3 p.m. on Thursday, service would be disconnected
blah blah blah.

I called again - had to give a credit card payment.

I have now paid the Nov. bill three times and the Dec. bill twice.

I shall visit a Comcast office later this seek.

You are leaping to geographic conclusions.  It may well exist as a
standard ingredient at pizza places here.  I am not representative of
the citizens.  I don't think I've ever been out for pizza here.

Correction:  I have been out for pizza in Starkville before.  I just
realized that I said never.  But I don't think I have been out for pizza
here in the past thirty years.

I like the way PRM does it.  It's limited to twice a year, once in the
spring and once in the fall, and it consists of talking about the money
need off and on, not constantly, for a period of a few days at each of
those times.

But most of my turkey sandwich eating has always been on floppier loaf breads (that's how I was raised), and with good results. And toast is a fine thing too. I'm sure more <substantial> breads are fine too, but not necessary. Just don't pile it too high.

It was Rita.  I don't know that Betty has discussed this matter.  I
forgot to notice in the cafeteria today whether there was turkey and
dressing.  I think there wasn't, but I didn't really pause at that area.
  I went on to another area that had a Chinese chicken-rice dish that
was good.  I was feeling especially distracted at the moment, having
just been in the cafeteria office talking about ARF-banquet stuff with
the Dining Services scheduler, and worrying about where to find a proper
chair for Santa Claus.

I considered doing that. But I do not want to pay the fee - and the bank
will be 100% responsible if they cash it for the wrong party, so I am
going to let it go. (It's a very small check.)

Ah, so some people's trip-planning bores you and pisses you off, while
other people's trip-planning doesn't bother you.  I understand now.

I'm for it.  I'm always for going to NYC.  I was thinking not long ago
how I might go up next summer for the Mississippi in the Park event,
which is not a tourist event, of course -- it was started many years ago
by Mississippians who live in NYC and is for them.  But I've always
thought it would be fun to go.  I think it's always sometime in
mid-to-late June.

And suddenly I'm reminded of something I noticed when leaving campus
early this afternoon and meant to report to you (you, Lynne -- not y'all
in general -- will Alec attack me?).  There was a large vehicle with a
satellite on top parked near the stadium.  Actually, there were several,
but the one I meant to mention to you said something like "Alabama Super
Stars -- ABC -- 30/40."  Is that a tv channel you watch?  At first I
couldn't figure out why there were such vehicles parked around the
stadium, but then I remembered that our new fb coach was to have a press
conference around that time from the M-Club building, which is beside
the stadium -- as in sort of on top of part of it, I guess.

How did you manage to make it to adulthood?  But then you are using
present tense.  I have no memory of how to knit or crochet, so I could
say that I cannot do them.  I do remember a wee bit more about playing
bridge, though it is also something I have not done in years -- except
that I used to play bridge on my computer at times -- I wonder what
happened to that bridge game -- hadn't thought about it in a long time.
  All three of those, however, were assumed to be universal in my
growing-up years.

I was so irritated on the phone tonight that I demanded interest on the
payments - fortunately, I also laughed, knowing how likely THAT was! I
will let it go - the monthly payments are small, so it's not that much
money. (It would have been earlier in my life, of course.)

Now if the crews will just finish the construction work at Western Plaza,
I will be fairly happy. I cannot go to Fresh Market or Kroger's on my way
home from the office because of the one-lane situation at Western Plaza.
It would take forever.

Hmm.  Let us click this planning into high gear.  I could do it between
Jan. 2 and 10, but I would need to start planning -- to cash in ff miles
and to get Spencer a reservation at Furrbabies.  I guess it would be
kind of weird to fly home from NYC on Dec. 29 (which is what I will be
doing) and turn around and fly back there a few days later.  But that's
life.

Why are you flying into Phoenix?  Dec. 8 is a good date.  I can't
remember why now exactly, but it rings bells in my head as being good.

This isn't about libraries, but I suddenly remembered something I was
going to mention.  I zipped by a close grocery store on my way home
today to buy milk and noticed a Patricia Cornwall book named ... lemme
go look ... named _Portrait of a Killer_ with Jack the Ripper mentioned
in a subtitle.  I bought it since that did not sound familiar -- did not
sound like something I'd read before.  Have I?  It's not the one some of
y'all have been talking about lately, is it?  I think not since it was
published in 2002.  I'm guessing that y'all have been talking about one
still in hardback only.

Thanks for warning me. I have already been asked to serve on the board of
the Faculty Women's Club - by someone (retired) who assumed that I had
retired before moving to HH - when I told her I was not retired, she
understood why I said "no."

I suppose I need to start practicing not being nice.

No. Make that

Is there a particular reason you choose to write checks for bills?  I
realize that some people do prefer that method, but it seems so very
<cumbersome> to me in these days of bank-draft or credit-card-draft.  I
would hate to have to go back to the days of writing checks every month
to pay bills.

I don't know.  I am suddenly reminded of an engineer friend of mine who
had to wait for hours in a doctor's office and sent the doctor a bill
later for that time.  The doctor paid.  (I think it was probably a sort
of joke on both their parts, but it in fact happened.)

I found good ol' Gaspar's linguica and chourico at Super Stop and Shop
tonight. I bought some linguica. Not quite sure what I'm going to do with
it. It's a strong contender to go into my ersatz Mediterranean chicken dish
of chunked up boneless chicken breast, artichoke hearts, kalamata olives,
sun-dried tomatoes, and capers.

This is funny.  The very first thought I had when learning of my need to
find a chair for SC was of the chair I gave to the Starkville Community
Theatre not all that long ago.  I could of course borrow that chair from
them, not just because I gave it to them but because groups in our nice
little town are good to each other (and overlap greatly).  But I would
not be able to haul it.  When I gave it to them, somebody came to my
house and hauled it away in a van.  No way would it have fit into my
Toyota Echo.  So there would be a hauling hassle.

I found it, seems Old Tart is a white wine, same vineyard.
May have to see if I can get that one ordered as well.  Did you ever drink
any?

Interestingly, there is an Old Git which was changed to Old Fart when it
crossed the pond to our side.

I found a neat site www.winelabels.org which shows some great labels.

The Faculty Women's Club is a group of retired people?  That sounds like
an odd name for such a group.  Or do you mean that only retired people
are on its board?  That also sounds weird to me.  But then I know
nothing of faculty women's groups.  There is something like that here,
but I have never been involved.  As I think I've said before, I'm not
much into sex-separated groups.  The only exception is the Dem Women --
because they really do great things.

I've gotten very good at not being nice re professional stuff outside of
  MSU -- saying no when asked to be on programs, panels, etc.  I still
do some evaluating of grant proposals for NEH and NSF, but I'm rapidly
moving out of those, writing notes at the end to tell them that I'm
retired.  I really have gotten rid of lots and lots of professional
stuff.  But I am taking on more and more non-professional stuff, most of
which I am glad to take on.  It's just this ARF VP thing that's becoming
a major thorn.  It will pass, however.  Next year I'll be Pres, the
following year chair of the Nominating Committee, and then (I think)
*FREE*.  Since I've paid life-time dues, I won't even have to remember
to pay dues.  I can simply <enjoy>.

What's a bobo?  Somebody who buys Jewish candles or wasabi peas or miso
soup or pad thai?  One of the above?  All of the above?  Something else?

Traffic has quadrupled near where my parents live and it's very
different from what I remember. It always takes me about two
weeks to get used to everything, get into the swing of things
there, the rhythms of family etc. and just when I'm feeling
comfortable it's time to return.

Neat!  What are you doing between the night of the 25th and the morning
of the 29th?  Or to speak more practically, what are you doing between
the 26th and 28th?  I will arrive there late on the 25th and will depart
early on the 29th.

That is no doubt true.  My biggest problem is time -- finding time to
deal with this shit on top of everything else that happens at the end of
a semester.  And for ages I've been planning on spending Saturday in
Jackson at the wonderful crafts fair that occurs the first week in
December every year.  Today I was thinking that I should give up that
idea -- that I need to be thinking about ARF decorations and stuff.  But
then another part of me said, "WHY?"  It told me that giving up Saturday
for a visit to the crafts fair in Jackson really, really wouldn't hurt
the ARF banquet.

>What's a bobo?

Bourgeois Bohemian - something like that. Coined by David
Brooks in -Bobos in Paradise-. His thesis is that wasabi
peas and supermarket sushi and hazelnut lattes are no
longer confined to big cities and the coasts and are
avaliable all across the country. Once exotic tastes
now have mass appeal - something like that.

It's within the realm of possibility that you might
have more time if you unretired.

That sounds so very much like what I feel about holidays -- as in
longish ones.  About the time I finally get into the rhythm of the time
off, the vacation ends.

My new dishwasher was installed today.  It smells all
brandy-new and stuff.  I've never had a new dishwasher
before.  Whee!

Got a new garbage disposal, too.  Ana put quarters down the
old one a couple of years ago and we never got around to
fixing it.

Thanks.  Something about the term "bourgeois Bohemian" strikes me as a
bit pompous, though.  In various ways.

You make it sound like you are the only person responsible for this little
affair.  Delegating such important tasks such as procuring Santa's chair
and rug to someone in the group sounds like such a stress relieving task.

You should definitely attend the crafts fair.

Yes.  For sure that would be true if I just hung on without publishing
anything (which one can get away with in the last couple of years of
employment since there's always a backlog period re publications).

How are you liking the garbage disposal after a couple of years without
one?  I had one in my previous house (after my kitchen remodeling) and
sorely missed it when I moved into this house, but after living here for
over two years, I'm totally used to not having one.  Not having one
feels <normal>.

Most of my creditors have no other way of receiving funds (PF, blacksmith,

concerned about security. Since I pay few bills, I don't consider it a
large issue.

I cannot resist adding my idiosyncracies to the pizza thread that will not
die.
Two things I do not eat are pepperoni and mushrooms, which happen
be extremely popular pizza toppings especially in group settings.
I've gotten very good at picking them off pizza slices - pepperoni isn't
too bad but finding every last bit of mushroom can be a bitch.

And now I'm reminded of eating pizza with pat'n'steph near Amsterdam
airport after Floriade ...

Hey, Bethany -- Since you're big into stuff like <investing>, I will
appeal to you to be nice to Comcast.  While walking back from the p.o.
one day a week or two or three ago, I was glancing at one of those

something about mutual funds.  And I saw Comcast listed as something I

Nobody else would have time - well, wives might, depending on whether thay
also have careers.

So far as I know, we have no org for retired persons. I've never heard of
one.

Yes, that's ABC 33/40 out of Birmingham.  Of course,
Croom at MSU would be a big story for any AL station,
but 33/40 has bunches of stringers and they keep on
top of even trivial local stories, in case they assume
some importance.  They drive us nuts when anything
"strangely" criminal happens, and they are apt to turn
up with lights, camera, and action, with no prior
notice.  We don't mind that, but usually the folks

I have no assistants.  I don't know to whom I could delegate that task.

I am very, very seriously inclined toward it.  I would still have Sunday
to contend with banquet chores.  I won't have time on Monday since I'm
giving an exam at 8:00 and then have to grade papers.  And at 9:00 on
Tuesday Armando (ARF pres) and I will meet in the Union ballroom to set
stuff up.  Still, though, my very fiber is calling out to go to Jackson
Saturday.

It is her theory that the painter Walter Siekert (sp)
was the authentic JTR. In her interviews and in the
blurbs, she purports to advance unassailable DNA
evidence of the painter's guilt.  I'm not buying her
theory.  I believe in DNA evidence absolutely, but she
and her "experts" have been a little sloppy, in this
case.  For me, it was interesting, but not convincing.

Natalie, perhaps I will bill you for the interest on my triple and double

In this regard, I do as Bethany does.  The only
bank-drafts we've authorized are for insurance
policies.  Other than that, I want to decide what,
when, how much, and to whom I render funds.  And these
days, free checking is commonplace.

And on year, the State of Alabama was broke once more,
and didn't mail our tax refund for months.  I demanded
interest, and got it.

And if everything doesn't get done, it just doesn't get done. You don't
want to have to do this job again next year, do you? If not, then - do not

Different strokes really are quite different.  Those are two of my
favorite pizza toppings.  Mushrooms more than pepperoni.  I have to be
in a particular mood to want pepperoni, but I am always in the mood to
want mushrooms.

I didn't give it much thought (as in considering it a large issue) until
I discovered <life on the other side>.  Now I am totally spoiled.  I
write checks only for odd things.  At times I worry about having
forgotten how to write checks.  Pretty much every thing in my life is on

I carefully stored in my brain 33/40 when I passed that truck today, but
then stupidly wrote 30/40.  It was indeed 33/40.

Have you watched tv tonight?  Did Croom show up?  I haven't turned on tv
in the past several days.  I meant to tonight but never got around to
it, and now it's almost bedtime.

I hadn't thought about that aspect of your job -- the media stuff.  At
least it keeps life <interesting>.

I'm thinking that it was the one I had to get a letter of permission
from to get ABC via satellite.  I'm almost sure it was.  It was the
closest ABC station, according to the DirecTV people, and thus I had to
get a letter from them saying that my signal would be bad.  What a
hassle all that was -- and for no real reason since I have never, as far
as I remember, turned on the dish-fed ABC that I finally got.

Are you saying that what I bought in the grocery store today was not a
novel -- was a PC non-fiction attempt?  That will disappoint me, though
I guess the menion of JtR should have alerted me to that.  My brain is
feeling more and more flaccid every day.

I've had free checking for what feels like forever.  It's not a matter
of cost.  To me it's a matter of convenience.  My bills all get paid
without my having to give any thought or effort to it.  And I of course
get notifications of the paying of the bills, so it's not as if money is
mysteriously leaving my checking account.

My friend was there for quite a while--several months, I think. And
said the same thing.

But wait--I just realized, he's Canadian, too! That explains the
similarity in perceptions.

This week in India Sara heard that the

I mean that is important world news.

And this morning she was blessed in a

The Wellington.  I've stayed there before and found it quite pleasant.
It's also a super location if you happen to be going to anything at
Carnegie Hall, which I think I'm not since there doesn't seem to be much
happening there at that time.  The Wellington is tricky re prices --
sometimes there are great bargains but not always.  I can't remember now
exactly what my bargain was -- have that info somewhere, I guess -- but
it was pretty good.  If you just go to their website, though, you
sometimes can get the impression that all the rooms are quite expensive
(or at least from my pov of what constitutes expensiveness).  That's
because the site lists only what is available on the dates you're
interested in -- like if the cheaper rooms are already booked, you don't
know they exist.

I'm disappointed.  It's not that I don't like non-fiction.  I love it at
times.  It's just that I want a PC novel sitting in my
waiting-til-holidays stack, not a PC non-fiction.

I've never liked the idea of online bill pay.  I'd just as soon go on
and write a check and put a stamp on an envelope.  What I like about
bank draft or credit-card draft is the automaticity of it -- not having
to do anything at all (except subtract the amount in my checkbook in the
case of bank draft).  I think I like direct bank draft better than
credit-card draft because in the latter case you have to tell all the
places the new expiration date when your card expires.  (I say "direct"
bank draft because my credit-card drafts are also ultimately bank drafts
since my credit-card bill is paid by bank draft.)  Anyway, I noticed the
hassle a few months ago when my old Visa expired and was replaced with a
new one -- same number of course, just different expiration date.  I
wonder if there are never-expiring Visas.  I should inquire.

        I haven't used the new one yet.  I find I adjust to having or
not having a disposal and/or dishwasher pretty easily.
They're nice to have, though.

Natalie,
If you are looking for the Patricia Cornwell that you are used to, skip
the JTR book.  It will disappoint, although I did find it interesting to
read.  The book that several of us have read recently (still in
hardback) is Blow Fly.  The one prior to that was Final Precinct.  If
you haven't yet read that one, you should be able to find it in
paperback by now.  It will prepare you for some of Blow Fly but not for
chapter 15.  :-)

Hacking, spamming. It happens to the best. For instance, my personal

a server.

I frankly find tatting almost as bad as crosstitch. Bobbin lace is much
easier and more fun. You have a slew of bobbins you have to keep straight,
but you basically hold a pair of bobbins in each hand, and either twist
(cross the two bobbins in one pair) or cross (the right-most bobbin in the
left hand exchanged with the left-most bobbin in the right hand). Every
thing else is just pinning periodically to hold the lace in place until
finished, and following the pattern, which lies underneath the piece.

Now you know how to make fancy lace. I made my first piece with coarse
 crochet thread and used round wooden clothespins for bobbins. I used a
 lampshade for a "pillow", and worked standing. It was a lot of fun, and
 produced something that looked similar to a macrame belt - but was a
 terrific way to learn the basics; any kid of 6 or older could easily do
 it.

I got to the point of making 1" trim at the rate of abt 1"/hr; but of
 course doing more would result in doing it faster. I do love it; but
 it's hard to find a place to keep a work in progress where it won't get
 moved and the threads tangled.

Saying "I play bridge" would have been posting rich where I grew up -
but in fact, this list reminds me of my early lifeplan:

I would not learn to type, wait tables, or use a cash register, since I
was determined never to work anyplace that would require those skills.
(as it happened, I ended up doing all three, and childcare and factory
work as well)

"knit, crochet, and play bridge" sounds to me like the pastimes I
envisioned for '50s suburban wives - along with making little
sandwiches for tea.

Have a look at this from The Spectator -- not totally unrelated (perhaps a
bit inverted, however):

http://www.spectator.co.uk/article.php3?table=old&section=current&issue=2003
-11-29&id=3781



Women who won't

Rod Liddle says there may be good reasons for women to stay at home, but a
lot of them do it because they are plain idle

What is it that afflicts our women at the moment? They seem gripped by a
terrible lassitude, a paralysis, as though of hemlock, etc., etc. One by
one, bourgeois women the length and breadth of the country are turning to
their husbands or lovers, and later to their bosses, and sighing a little
and saying, 'Do you know, I think I've had enough of this being at work
thing. I'd like to cut down. Go part-time. Or maybe - and tell me what you
reckon to this - stop altogether.'

And the husbands, lovers, bosses sort of suck their teeth and say, a little
ruefully, 'Um, me too, now you come to mention it. Chance would be a fine
thing,' and so on. And then they accede, usually. And the women disappear,
maybe to the gym or the wine bar or Selfridges, their brains having lapsed
into happy desuetude.

Check around your office for a few minutes (if you're deluded enough still
to be working in one). How many women there have gone part-time, recently?
How many women have given up work altogether? How many women went part-time
because they were having a baby but now, four years later, just look - they'
re still part-time? What's happening to them? Where's that vaulting ambition
to break through the infamous and repellent glass ceiling? Where's the
bloody work ethic? And how should the men respond?

According to a survey by the Equal Opportunities Commission, only 57 per
cent of women work full-time. Fewer than half of married women work, whereas
94 per cent of married men work full-time. What's more, don't think it's
just the kiddies who are to blame: only 58 per cent of married women with no
children bother to work. Despite four decades of what we might call
'progressive' legislation designed to enforce equality within the workplace,
the number of babes plying some sort of trade isn't rising very much. There
was no proportional (as opposed to actual) rise in women working between
1993 and 2003, for example. And it's still the case that 82 per cent of
part-time workers are women. Because, when they do work, women, they don't
like to work for very long.

I rang the Equal Opportunities Commission and said to them, 'Look, women
still aren't going to work full-time. Maybe it isn't discrimination in the
workplace, sexist attitudes in the home and an unequal distribution of
domestic labour, ignorance of pension rights, childcare problems or a
deep-rooted, culturally determined socialisation which makes women stay at
home. Maybe it's just that women are inherently bone-idle right down to the
tips of their lovely little fingers. Why don't you do a study on that?'

They begged to differ, although, crucially, they agreed that they could not
rule out the possibility that at least some women, bless them, were
inveterately lazy. 'Yes, all right, some might be idle, I suppose,' they
concurred, good-humouredly. But largely they blamed other stuff, the sort of
things I mentioned above. Yet I'm not sure that those arguments quite add
up. Let us accept that there is still sexism in certain sectors of the
economy - the City, one imagines, for a start. And maybe plumbing. And let
us also concede that successive governments have not helped women into
employment through a stoical refusal to embrace decent childcare
legislation. And, at present, people who employ nannies are rewarded if they
commit tax fraud and themselves encourage tax fraud in the nanny; this is a
nonsense and should be stopped. But it doesn't quite explain why this acts
as a disincentive solely for women to do a hard day's work.

Luckily, I've done my own case studies, a body of work that may one day be
accepted by the scientific community as the definitive research on this
controversial and vexing issue. I draw from a sample of three bourgeois
women, aged between 34 and 41, and whom I shall refer to as Women A, B and C
(as they might do in the Lancet), so as to disguise the fact that they are
personal friends. Two of them - of whom one earned much more than her
husband - have already given up work. The other one has gone part-time and
is finding even that a bit bloody much, frankly. And from exhaustive
interviews I have identified the following reasons why women at a certain
stage of life, once the kiddies have started going to school and when the
working world is open before them, suddenly give up the ghost.

Nanny-envy: a massive factor for all three women. The financial iniquities
of the childcare system and the high cost of nannies, particularly in
London, are an exacerbating rather than a definitive factor here. It's a
decidedly more personal thing; indeed, nanny-envy can sometimes teeter over
into nanny-spite or a visceral nanny-hatred - especially, it would seem, if
the nanny is very young and attractive. Why is this bitch looking after my
children? And, worse, why do the children ask, a little wistfully, where she
is of a weekend? They can't possibly like her, can they? Do they like her
more than me? Do they love her? And then there's the nanny lifestyle. Woman
C remembers coming home from a typically enervating day at work on a
gloriously hot evening and saying to the nanny, 'Hi, how's your day been?'
And rather gallingly, the nanny replied, 'Oh, fine. I've just sat by the
pool and watched the children all day.' Within the month, Woman C had given
up work and the nanny was jobless. And, indeed, pool-less. Serves the bitch
right, no?

Mummy-guilt: allied to the above is the dark foreboding that they are doing
the wrong thing by being away from the kids all day. I dare say the EOC
would describe this foreboding as a deeply internalised norm, but the women
in my little study insist that it is an ineluctable biological thing. And it
gets worse when they witness their children emerge from a prelapsarian state
and start calling each other uncouth, lower-class things like 'wanker' and
'dickhead' and 'homo'. That's my fault, the women say to themselves,
reproachfully. I should have been there. And Woman A remembers how, when she
was a child, she envied the children who had mummies at home, rather than
mummies at work. 'And there's a special bond, isn't there, between mother
and child?' said Woman A. No, there bloody well isn't. Not if we believe
what we've been told by 40 years of feminist argument. And, frankly, I do.
So, grab your briefcase and clear off to work. And take the bin out, will
you, while you're at it.

Yummy Mummy Syndrome: this is an absolutely ghastly phrase and certainly not
of my creating. It has been coined to describe affluent stay-at-home mothers
who actually don't stay at home but spend all day at the gym or the salon,
being honed and rubbed and pampered by dubious Mediterranean-looking men
called Paolo. As a result, they have looks to die for, apparently. They are
fit, in both the traditional and degraded sense of the word. And the women
who work, and consequently look haggard and drawn and embittered, hate them
for it. And wish to be them, also.

Taedium Vitae: because work, when it comes down to it, isn't that great, is
it? Woman B pronounced it 'tiring', work. Really? Well, blow me down. And of
course the women in my little sample group have passed the age where work is
a new and vibrant thing full of endless opportunity and has become, instead,
a means to an end. And for the three of them, the end - i.e., money - is not
a burning necessity. Not if daddy goes to work every bloody hour that God
sends. Don't forget that Woman B earns nearly twice as much as her husband.
But the pragmatic rules do not seem to apply. Why is this?

The conclusion we might draw from all of this is that a) there are indeed
cultural pressures that contribute to keeping women in the home and b) there
are in some cases economic pressures also, but c) a lot of women don't work
because they don't like working - for many of the reasons why men don't like
working, if we're honest. It's a drudge. It never stops. It is replete with
stressful vicissitudes or endless mundanities. And the old arguments that
men used to marshal to keep women locked to the kitchen sink (and which, I
dare say, a few mutton-headed oafs continue to mouth even now) are
increasingly being marshalled by the women to enable them to stay at home.
Perhaps one day they will tell us all that 17th-century doctors were
absolutely correct to aver that women who thought too long and hard would
find their brains exploded all over the floor.

More research needs to be done, of course. I have dealt only with
middle-class women and therefore work needs to be done among the
proletariat. I don't know many working-class women; they don't seem to like
me. They think I'm effete, for some reason.

But Lynne doesn't like the automaticity. And it's certainly not

Fortunately, there are many options. Autopilot and worrying are probably
opposite ends of a continuum.

My bill-paying is organized, quick, and painless. And as we know, I enjoy
fooling with money, working with budgets, and engaging in financial
planning. And I am beginning to love the market.

True. I enjoy this, too--when I have an income. But the only check I
write is for my mortgage, because they don't have one-time EFTs. I do
the rest of the payments over the web, when they are due. It's faster,
and I don't have to mess with stamps and envelopes.

For me, it's short stories.  After reading them, it's either "I'm glad that
wasn't a full novel" or "I wish that'd been a full novel so I could have
gotten even more out of it."  It's almost as if they were to take a sitcom
running at twenty-three minutes first run and chopping it to ten minutes for
syndication. (then again, it's horrible to watch something[1] in syndication
e.g., M*A*S*H, Seinfeld; watch it in syndication, and know where they
chopped it to fit the time allotted)

[1] Having seen the episode(s) too many times: M*A*S*H with over 200
episodes and Seinfeld not far behind.  Generally, I don't *watch* them,
they're on in the background just as music would be - just to have something
masking tinnitus.

I never went back and read the fine print, but CostCo and Sam's Club both
renew the cards annually, adding the fee to your next bill.  Most of what I
use CostCo for is the discounted gas.

I've never been to TJs although there's one in Danbury and one somewhere in lower Westchester County. I'll check a few more local places first.

It will not fool my father. He has a very specific taste in mind, as do I, and it really doesn't consist of any <seasonings>. It's cherries, sugar, tapioca and almond extract, if I'm not mistaken.

I think that I have seen them at Trader Joe's.  I just checked their online "Fearless Flyer"
http://www.traderjoes.com/fearless/index.asp
and don't see them, though.  However, they do have peanut butter and molasses flavored dog biscuits.

Holly is self-taught when it comes to cross-stitch. Another related talent
is to look at the suggested color scheme and alter it so not only do the
colors look better together, but if her final product is seen with another,
it looks more as though it was a unique product - self-created from scratch.
When we go downtown for the State Fair, her primary attraction[1] is to go
to the Fine Arts building which has all of the handiwork on display.  I've
tried to convince her to enter her work (based upon the comparison) but
she's afraid something will happen to it and doesn't want to lose the time
investment.  The first time my mother & grandmother saw her work, I'd
forgotten to forewarn her about what they'd do:  flip it over.  They were
raised with the philosophy that the back should be as clean & orderly as the
front.  Although they praised her work, she wasn't sure if they were just
being polite.  I've tried to do it but I can't keep the tension in my
stitches consistently even. Aside from keeping a stash of books I hadn't
read, my mom relied on teaching us to knit and crochet, play bridge and
canasta, etc. for the times we were in quarantine at home with childhood
diseases or snow days. If I were a castaway with yarn & needles I could
probably relearn some elements of knitting & crochet but I cannot remember
for the life of me how to play bridge or canasta.

[1] my primary attraction is to hop on a tractor driven tram and ride around
for several hours with a large bottle of water & watch the people.

I also would not learn to type. No one ever suggested that I learn to wait
tables or use a cash register. I had to develop a fast hunt and peck
system on the tyewriter later.

I have never learned how to change a tire. I figure that if I don't know
how, I will never have to do it. (But I can change a water pump on certain
old vehicles.)

Or, with a show such as WKRP, knowing where they changed things

(forewarning: today is "methadone day")

Someone asked about Warren Buffet within the previous month or so - hearing
bridge reminded me of that.  He & William Henry Gates III (aka "Billy the
Kid" (in his early days) aka Bill Gates) play online frequently and at least
once a month one flies to the other one's location for them to play
together. I've not seen anything state who the other two players are.  Mr.
Gates apparently tried to take up golf some time ago but was considered to
be a failure at best.  I don't know if he's continued to play (or learn).
Considering they have little in common (aside from wealth) they are very
good friends.

Warren Buffet (a quick gloss over):  native of Omaha.  I did some contract
work there about five years ago and ran into a lot of people who are very
happy with his talents.  He started young with various forms of gathering
funds (e.g., pop bottles, paper route, etc.) and would bootstrap himself up
from one form of currency/wealth to another.  Eventually, he was an
economics professor (the type who wears a bow tie) and decided to put his
philosophies into action.  Starting with a spare bedroom, he started putting
together a stock portfolio under the name Berkshire Hathaway[1] (late 60s or
early 70s, I think).  Many people in Omaha who knew him would do practically
anything to scrape together $5k or $10 to invest.  These folks are
fabulously wealthy now but you wouldn't know it to talk to them.  They
aren't Buffet ($36B) or Gates ($46B) rich, but plenty rich enough to take
their minds off of problems for the rest of their lives.

I don't have his mentor's name handy, but Warren was a big fan of his -
taking what he learned, then seemingly developing those lessons to many more
degrees beyond - almost exponentially.  Most of Buffet's wealth is not
liquid (cash) - it's pretty much all stock.  His feeling is stock should be
acquired & held, not cashed in.  He's the single-largest holder of Coke
stock, etc. etc. During the Big Bang of the Internet and Internet-related
technologies of the mid-to-late 90s, he was seen as a Scrooge because he
felt tech stocks were severely overrated and would not sustain themselves
long-term.  Was he right or did his prediction start the dominoes falling?
Obviously the former, but... Unlike Gates[2], he still does not invest much
in tech stocks although has started doing some since the bubble burst.  Not
too long ago, Berkshire purchased a large, controlling share of Level3.
Paradoxically, they unloaded it.  Although it likely has nothing to do with
it, Level3 is a very large Internet backbone. They are also one of the
largest spam harbors online.  Once a spammer connects as a customer, it's
nearly impossible to get them booted.

I read in one of the financial newspapers (so it had to be either Investor's
Business Daily or Wall Street Journal) [that] he has become a financial
consiegliere with many of the larger financial names joining him at his
favorite steakhouse along with a cherry coke.  He still drives his own car,
has the house he's owned for 30+ years, etc. etc. etc.  When asked why these
people visit him, his response was, "Because I keep my mouth shut regarding
what we talk about."

He's started making suggestions for change against things which are "just
because that's the way it's always been done".  Included: when employees are
granted company stock, it should appear on the books as an expense, rather
ignoring it; also, stop providing financial estimates.  They only cause the
suits to make up numbers they think they might be able to make, make
stockholders nervous once they hear the company will either lose, or make a
profit, but fall short of the estimates.  Japan requires estimates to be
publicized.  The companies which he belongs to the BOD have either dropped
reported earnings or are preparing to. Others which have no connections to
him are strongly considering dropping as well.  Doing so could probably
extend the [true, health of] lifespan of the suits who sweat out the
quarterly earnings or have found ways to misrepresent them by cheating which
days products are officially shipping (and thus, are on the books).

I can probably dredge up some more if I had to.

[1] If you are thinking, "Hey! Berkshire Hathaway sounds like a great
stock!"  it is.  I haven't looked recently, but it's been a long, long time
since I've seen the stock less than $35k/share.  I've also seen it as high
as $65k/stock.  Not for the feint of heart.

[2] Mr. Gates has an investment manager who has free reign to do as he sees
fit with two exceptions:  technology and bio/lifesciences.  The technology
issue is because of potential competition and infringement issues.  In that
case, the manager must check with the Microsoft legal staff to ensure they
don't have an investment in, a potential investment in, or a company they
shouldn't have an investment in.  He (at last word) sells 88k shares of
Microsoft per day and reinvests it.  Early on, he'd turned $400M into $12B.
That's an incredible feat.  The bio/lifesciences is a hands-off issue for
his investment manager because Mr. Gates sees that as something he likes to
research and play with, so he saves that for himself.

Are you kidding me? Change a tire? My dad split up the jobs involved in
changing tires and taught us to do them all when I was abt 7 or so (making
the other participants 5,3,1, -1, and -2. Hmmm. Ok, before I was 10,
certainly!) Anyway, little. Why wouldn't you want to know that! It's
tiresome waiting for someone else to come along to do something that only
requires getting dirty and swearing a lot to get you on your way! (My dad
didn't swear; I had to take lessons from a truck driver to learn that part.
Nobody's perfect!)

But in my experience, never wanting to learn a thing means it will become
necessary shortly, so you may as well go ahead and pick it up now. If I
decided never to learn Morse Code, Shorthand, or counting to 5 in Urdu,
where would I be now?

I need a refresher.  Surely there have been advances in tire changing
since 1942 . . .

It's not as though there is much to learn.
For real, even if you never change tires, it's good to keep something to
kneel on (an old tablecloth, a tarp, a piece of cardboard) and a GOOD tire
iron (not the chintzy ones that come with the car) in the trunk for any
Good Samaritan who helps. Those two things make tire changing a hell of a
lot less onerous. Also, if you think you have a flat and can choose a
hard level surface to get out and check, that's much easier to change a
 tire on than a soft surface the jack will sink into.

If you ever have to change one,no way out, reach for the car manual first.
 It will show pictures of the location of the jack, which is usually the
most arcane element of the rite, and how to place and raise the jack.
Most cars nowadays have little notches or something in the location you
are supposed to put the jack, and then it's just common sense: don't put
your head under a jacked up car in case it slips off the jack; use the
parking brake; loosen the nuts before you lift the wheel off the ground so
you don't push the car off the jack,  tighten the nuts thoroughly so the
 wheel doesn't fall all, and so on.

Also, if the lugnuts are too tight, standing on the tire iron and jumping
helps. Righty-tighty; lefty-loosey!

All the rest is about style (loosen and tighten the nuts in
alternating order (1-3-5-2-4) so that one side isn't loose while the other
is tight, eg) or historic - eg, back when cars rolled if not parked
carefully on the level, it was important to put a brick behind one of the
wheels on the ground.

For some reason a couple of days ago I lost the ability to compose messages or reply from this account. But two things stick in my head as things that I would have replied to:

Clyde: The penguin's name was Opus, not Otis.

and

Natalie has suggested in the past (several times, several years apart) that there has been some discussion and controversy re the meat status of pepperoni on words-l. But there is nothing in the archives that appears to the original dispute or even conversation. Which leads me to believe that this was either a lunch table conversation or created in Natalie's head, but that Natalie is the only one on words-l who isn't sure that pepperoni is meat. In other words, Natalie, let it here be decided that yes, pepperoni is meat. Case closed.

I always keep a tarp in my car. The tire iron that came with my car is
good enough that that's what the last person who changed my car used.

That was my plan. But really, that's why I have AAA.

Ah, but Google goes back to at least 13-Oct-1996.

It's not a WORDS-L discussion of the nature of
pepperoni, but appears to indicate that her
confusion about the animal origins of pepperoni
sprouted up after that.


I love pizza, but I prefer it without dead pig.  Actually I do eat
pepperoni pizza from time to time, now that I think about it.  Somehow
that doesn't offend my tastebuds the way sausage pizza does.  The only
fleshly stuff I don't mind on pizza is pepperoni or shrimp.  Or squid,
but the only time I've had squid pizza was in Thailand.  My favorite
pizza toppings are green pepper, onion, mushroom, olive (green or black).

Italian or breakfast? Plain pork sausage balls suck.

I had wonderful seafood pizza at the place across the side street from
Sally's in New Haven. Mussels, shrimp, and squid. Yum!

Does N.O. have a Little Italy. Bet they have squid pizza somewhere
there... Squid is good food.

Not in the sense of a geographical area,
like a Chinatown, at least not anymore.

But there _is_ a gigantic Italian influence
in New Orleans.  St. Joseph's Day is as big
a deal as St. Patrick's Day.  Bigger, really.

Italians and Sicilians everywhere.

My mom (63) & teacher friends (current & retired) get together weekly year
'round to play bridge, drink tea, and gossip. She also hears the pros|cons
retiring from teaching (she currently has third grade, which out of all of
what she's taught - practically everything from K-12 although much of the
non third-grade was as a substitute or a semester).  Although many finally
reach a point where they know it's practical to retire, many do not enjoy
retirement, even if they've been out for some time.  My mom keeps an eye on
how things go throughout the school year, particularly the weeks just
before, the Christmas^w Holiday Break, and the end (end of school year +
immediate weeks thereafter). So far, she's had a few more "fun" kids every
three or four years, but she looks forward to returning late Summer, enjoys
learning the chemistry of the class, etc.

Her biggest fear is she'll retire and later feel as if she regrets it
after-the-fact. She doesn't want a seat reserved at the bridge table for
drinking tea and gossiping.  I haven, however, pointed out there's
substituting (which I did in college during school breaks), tutoring, and
with home schooling being a big deal, she could offer to teach segments of
certain disciplines for kids whose parents do not feel comfortable teaching
those subjects.  I taught her a semester of biology night-after-night for a
semester at Freshman level (I think I was in 3rd or 4th grade at the time so
we had fun together) when her substituting turned into a full schedule: the
usual teacher went from ill to deceased.  She's since found she can do the
same /s outside help.

Mayo.  I don't really eat them.   I have put chips on my tuna sandwiches
though.  Nice crunch.

The SI.com article about Croom says: "...no football program in the
SEC struggles more than Mississippi State. The name of the town where
the school is located pretty much says it all -- Starkville. Sounds
like the name of one of the Coen brothers movies."

They must know about the linguica situation.

Yes, I did.  We had monkey bread at Thanksgiving.  Yum.

Larry made some last night which was just as good and much cheaper than
what he bought at Whole Food store. A little sweet.

Another place to look into is MIT's inventory of online courses.  When they
first started it was only twenty or thirty classes. Now, it's practically
everything (as in 500+ courses in 33 disciplines).

Slashdot's (August 29, 2003) story
(http://slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=03/08/29/134223):  "David Diamond has
written a very readable article at Wired News titled
(http://www.wired.com/wired/archive/11.09/mit_pr.html) "MIT Everyware" that
follows up on MIT's OpenCourseWare initiative (previous story:
http://slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=02/09/30/1647213&tid=146). It turns out
that one of the most popular courses has been '6.170 Laboratory in Software
Engineering, Fall 2001.' (http://tinyurl.com/lcin) |
(http://ocw.mit.edu/OcwWeb/Electrical-Engineering-and-Computer-Science/6-170
Laboratory-in-Software-EngineeringFall2001/CourseHome/index.htm) Diamond
notes that '[u]ltimately, MIT officials know, OpenCourseWare's success
depends on the emergence of online communities to support individual
courses.'"


(I've found it interesting just to browse some of the available resources)

I try to collect coupons for them and stock up when they go on sale. They freeze well. Pizza is one of my standard short notice guest appetizers/snack/lunches. Pepperoni also lasts a long time in the fridge.

Yes, I agree there. Especially since 40's and early '50s! But also we
have become generally more affluent, so that it's been a long time since
I changed a tire that wore out before I could afford to replace it.

Most of my flats now come from driving near construction or on recently
graded dirt roads (16 miles unplowed one lane and rocky to get in to our
camp, eg).

I had a flat tire this year, but a knight in shining armor (actually in a shining white Ford truck) came along and did it for me. I am very glad that he didn't shove me in my trunk. I should learn how to do it myself. I know there's not much to it. I guess the thing I'm a little unclear on is where to position the jack.

> Title: Vessels of Clay
> Author:  Henry J. Donaghy

The paperback was only published last month.  Most libraries haven't
finished ordering, receiving, stickering and shelving it yet.  If any
have, they haven't told OCLC WorldCat about it, but many libraries only
update their holdings with OCLC every year or so.  Dunno about academics.

But your library should buy a copy if you want one; it's $14.50 and
Amazon.com carries it.

It's make/model specific these days - consult the manual. In general, it
 needs to be near the wheel you're changing, and either under the axle,
 or on the body behind/under the door, or under the bumper-connector in
 the back. Often there's a little indentation on either side of the exact
 placement, a sort of cutout. If you lost the manual, you want to put it
under something "real" (not a plastic, flexible, loosely attached piece)
that you can reach without putting your head under the car.

As far as the Morse code goes, at least one signal:

...---...---...---...   SOSOSOS...  (that's the only thing I know)

If you ever get pinned under something under somewhere, earthquake, 9/11,
etc. and you aren't in a position to yell, that may be the only thing you
can send.

"everyone out of the car!"  I've stopped to help people who had their car
about halfway up with a pile of kids in the car because of the elements.
There's no way I'm getting near a jack where there are moving objects in the
car.  One wrong move and it's going to shoot out.

And once it's done, emphasize over & over they should get a replacement
ASAP.  I've stopped and the spare is what's blown.  "How long have you been
using this tire?"  "Ever since the other tire went out."  "When was that?"
"About six weeks ago."  "Well, you're going to take a trip to the nearest
place which sells car tires. You can't go anywhere."  Unfortunately, most of
the times this has happened has been 2am-4am with it raining buckets.  I
don't think people lack motivation when they have a bicycle tire for a
spare.

That was one of the things I checked when I rejoined.  I've enjoyed testing
various search engines over time to see how far back they can go and find
various types of resources I remember working with.

Speaking of which, did anyone else hear about the bid Microsoft made (and
has since denied) for Google?

One of my coworkers has a son in the Boy Scouts and their fund raiser is
selling pizza and pizza-related condiments(?)  Crusts, sauce, pepperoni,
etc.  Three pizzas to a box. Crazy bread, etc. from Noble Romans.  I make a
substantial order (he finished first in his troop this year - I don't know
how much my purchase helped) - usually as a donation to the scouts (as a
former scout myself) and access to the crusts.  The sauce & toppings don't
cover the pizza(s) well enough so I usually purchase add'l material at the
grocery.  I store several in the refrigerator for the first week then they
recomment moving them to the freezer after that.  The dough quality is about
the same as Boboli or slightly better so it's nice to have something nice to
start from.

No, it does not.  Pepperoni disappears from the fridge as fast as Reese's
cups disappear from the freezer.  The only way Pepperoni survives is to
purchase it at the store, bring it home, and put it on the pizza while the
oven heats up.  Otherwise, it's dead meat.  Oops. Paronomasia alert. I
didn't realize that until I typed it.

For all of the instructions and horror stories, I'm surprised (actually,
EXTREMELY SURPRISED) how trusting women are when I stop to help them.  This
is especially true in desolate areas at the oddest times.  I guess they
figure if they're in a pinch they have no choice but to trust me.  I usually
give them my cell phone and tell them to call whomever they want to and tell
them it's their call as to where they want to stand or sit WRT where they
are comfortable|safe. This is very true when it comes to making a trip to
get a spare, fluids for the car, etc.  If nothing else, I've told them to
call a friend, relative, store, and describe my vehicle, read the license
plate, along with my name off of my driver's license. (I take this very
serious) If I were a serious killer, I suppose I'd kill them in spite of all
of that, but I think it puts them in the driver's seat (there's another pun)
when it comes to some of the safety. If it's an interstate and there's a
handy rest stop, I'll take them there and wait inside for them - the
buildings are always well lit and out of the weather.

What's really bad is when it's a couple who has a dysfunctional vehicle and
they don't want to leave the car unattended. Then either he has to go with
me and leave her alone, or me take her and leave him with the car (and if
I'm a killer, she's alone with me).  Fortunately, cell phones with free long
distance now makes it easier for everyone to get in touch with someone.

Oh - and the ghost story with each participant providing a specific

I do, white and wheat flour.  It's great to give the kids a chunk and let
them make their own pizzas.

I have changed a few tires, oil, oil filters, and helped with other
assorted mechanical contraptions including water pump, radiator, and clutch
cable.

My father did most of his own car mechanics.  He also made sure we knew how
to change tires.  Got experience every year when he decided to rotate the
tires.

My mother changed her own tires as well, I remember her getting a flat on
the way to swimming lessons one day.  We weren't a mile down the road when
it happened.  We were a bit late and I remember her trying to wash her
hands off in the salt water.

I'm all for moving from doing things for them (which I sometimes do too
much) to empowering them.  I see it as teaching a skill.  William and Lil
love to cook.  Ed is practicing with bowls, onions and potatoes.

I fell asleep reading on the couch last night so this is on my "to read"
stack, but the current issue of Business Week deals with the issue of
"dealing with India". I'm guessing this is dealing with the increasing use
of India in the hi-tech business (frequently, if you call a help desk - not
your local school|business - you'll find yourself talking to someone in
India).

I wish now that I hadn't bought it, though maybe I'll find it
interesting now that I know it's not a normal PC book -- as in I won't
leap into it with the wrong expectations.

I'm bad about remembering titles.  What was _Final Precinct_ about?  I
usually stay on the look-out for new PC paperbacks and thus am not
likely to miss one.  I don't mean I check bookracks every time I'm in a
grocery store -- but often enough that I wouldn't go all that long
before discovering a new PC book.

I've never associated bridge with money.  Cards are cheap, and you don't

Do Masons still exist?  I thought they were something of the late
nineteenth and very early twentieth century.

Sounds fun.  And I still don't remember why Dec. 8 rings a bell with me
as being <good>.  Hmm.  Maybe that was the date of my PhD.  I didn't go
to the ceremony, but I remember that it was something like Dec. 8 or 10
or so.

It never occurred to me to associate learning to type with where one
might someday work.  Among my family and friends it was considered
necessary since otherwise you'd have a hassle turning in papers in college.

Tires don't seem to get flat anymore.  I do know how to change a tire
and have done it on a couple of occasions.  It's not a problem if you're
out on <the open road>.  A gallant man will stop and come to your rescue
the minute you get out of the car and look at the tire.  But it has
happened to me at odd times, like walking outside and noticing a flat
tire when my car was sitting in the carport (many years ago -- as I
said, I don't know that tires go flat anymore).

I have a good friend who plays bridge for
master points.  She lives in Arkansas but
travels to bridge events  and she has
played many times at the same table as
Warren Buffett.

 Many people in Omaha who knew him would do practically anything to
scrape together $5k or $10 to invest.  These folks are fabulously
wealthy now but you wouldn't know it to talk to them.

So true.  I have a bit of Berkshire B stock (it's appreciated
but it's small potatoes and you don't get rich on it) so I go
to their annual meeting from time to time and I just sit and
marvel at this enormous room full of very ordinary people
with very extraordinary money.  I've written about it on list before.

His feeling is stock should be
> acquired & held, not cashed in.

He also believes that wealth should not be passed down to
your children.  (Well, that's easy for him to say, because
they probably had a pretty good start and are doing well).
And he believes we should pay taxes glady (again, that's
easy for him to say . .)

Neat guy though.  I've sat for 5-hour stretches listening to
him answer questions from the shareholders at the annual
meeting, and it was an awesome experience.  He and
Charlie Munger, trading ideas as they give answers, are
sharp, helpful, and very very funny.

I haven't had any time at all today to think more about Santa's chair.
My latest worries have to do with piano and microphone and whether the
piano will be in tune and whether the performers might be happier
bringing their keyboard.  Tomorrow I will be going to the Union office
to discuss more details about what "unlocking the piano" means, what the
microphone is exactly, etc.  That will be after I turn in the food order
to Dining Services.

I also don't know whether there was turkey/dressing in the cafeteria
today since I didn't have a chance to go there.  I had to be at a
meeting at the public library at noon.

I'm not sure that I would know how to do it now since I don't think cars
have <real> spare tires anymore, do they?  I think they have some kind
of fake tires that might or might not attach the same way.  I assume
that if I have a flat tire, I can find instructions in the car book on
how to find and adhere the little fake tire that is presumably stored
somewhere under my trunk space.

But there is nothing in the archives that appears to the original dispute or even conversation. Which leads me to believe that this was either a lunch table conversation or created in Natalie's head, but that Natalie is the only one on words-l who isn't sure that pepperoni is meat. In other words, Natalie, let it here be decided that yes, pepperoni is meat. Case closed.

No, it was here on Words-L.  I'm thinking it was probably early to mid
'90s.  I mentioned that pepperoni was the only meat I like on pizzas,
somebody raised the question of whether it was truly meat, and a
discussion ensued, the conclusion of which I don't remember.  I vaguely
remember that it was determined that pepperoni was <quasi-meat>.  I
certainly think of it as meat.  And I don't remember that there was any
serious <controversy> -- as nobody was arguing anything.

?  Doesn't sound confused to me.  Why would I have said "actually" and
"now that I think about it" if I had not thought that pepperoni was
meat?  Thank you for pulling that up!  It confirms my memory of that
earlier discussion.

Since the time I wrote that about squid and Thailand, I have indeed had

My ex-husband always made the crust -- excellent whole-wheat crust.  He
was a great pizza-maker.

Would unretiring not be possible?  It is here.  I am not interested.  I
also <just said no> today when my dept head asked me if I would consider
teaching a couple of English lit survey classes next semester.  He's
getting kind of desperate, but I don't see it as *really* desperate.
Anybody can teach sophomore lit courses, and I feel sure that with
enough schedule-shuffling and combing the streets for possible
lecturers, that problem can be solved.

What exactly is the linguica situation?  I don't have time right now (as
in the next week) to go looking around at grocery stores.  Remind me
later, and I will report.  I also feel sure that City Bagel has whatever
it is since they have pretty much anything anybody has ever heard of.
As I said earlier, my lack of knowledge of foods is a personal thing,
not a regional thing.

As for whatever article you are quoting from (I don't know what SI.com
is), they can stick it up their snide and condescending asses.  (That
isn't a comment about football.  MSU has always sucked in fb -- in all
sports except baseball, in fact.  It's a comment about their comment re
Starkville.  I realize, of course, that they are simply saying that the
football situation is stark, but it comes across somehow as more than
that.  And, as one who could live anywhere in the world I damn well
choose but happen to choose to live in Starkville, I find the comment
offensive.)

I just looked back at what I wrote and realized I disagree with the
football part also.  Although MSU sux in fb, how can anybody say it is
the suckiest in the SEC?  Vanderbilt is still in the SEC.

I noticed that in news stories I saw -- not so much local ones but the
ones from AP or whoever.  It has sounded to me like something out of the
'50s or '60s.  What's all the hooplah about race?

I should learn how to do it myself. I know there's not much to it. I guess the thing I'm a little unclear on is where to position the jack.

Why is it that when I reply to some people's postings, I can't see what

Marie is one.  I've caught on that it will reinsert itself into this

anything past the second "shining."

The hardest part of changing a tire is lifting the spare.  (Or at least
that was true when spares were regular tires.)  That's one reason I was
always happy to have small cars with small tires.

It's a couple of dollars cheaper from 1stbooks.com.  (And, as I said

Don't know about pompous. This was one of those books/columns
celebrating consumption, luxury items, shopping as a national virtue etc.

For my friend the teacher, where's the best place to buy software (e.g.,
Microsoft Office) with an academic discount?

academicsuperstore.com has the Office 2003 Student & Teacher Edition for
$139.95; Microsoft has it direct for $149.00.

There's nothing pejorative about bobo as Brooks uses it. Things
that start out edgy and bohemian get rapidly and voraciously
absorbed into the "bourgeois" mainstream. He sees this as a
good, American, Republican phenomenon.

Re bridge, I should add that I was never anything but a <social>
bridge-player -- as in card games and fellowship are fun.  I've had
friends (still do) whose attitude toward bridge is far more serious than
mine -- people I have not played bridge with, I should add -- we aren't
the same kind of bridge-players.  They play duplicate, travel around
everywhere, etc. etc.  I might have mentioned before that one of my good
friends here, now dead, went on several occasions to whole weekend
bridge-games.  You got to sleep or cook if you were dummy.  Actually, I
think it wasn't quite that bad -- I think that they would have five
people on these trips, so that one person wasn't in the game at all and
could do the necessary chores for the survival of their bridge marathon.
  She was also the friend who went with a group of bridge-players to see
some kind of exhibit in Jackson (unrelated to bridge -- one of the King
Tut type things), and they went in a bus equipped with tables so that
they could play bridge all the way down and back.

That's easy for me to say also.  I say it readily (which is one of the
reasons my RRB calls me a communist, though his main reason is that I
have never "made anything of myself in life.")

I would assume that she would also be standing if she were screwing a

And I thank you (as I did earlier in reply to the direct mail).  I'm
pretty sure I haven't read it, although since writing that reply to you,
I've been thinking how a shrink was indeed involved in one of her books
I read in recent history -- as in the past couple of years.  I am
thinking more and more that I did read that one.  Can you tell me
something more specific than the reviews told but not something specific
enough to give away anything if I have not in fact read it?

Everything but the green pepper sounds good to me. My favorite topping
combination was pepperoni, mushroom, and anchovies.

Screw him?  Well if I let him stand, then I will also be standing,
unless I turn myself into a hovercraft or something -- or perhaps have
some kind of lifting device devised.

I guess it's the choice of the word "bourgeois" that sounds pompous.

Maybe you really did screw up, Richard.  I thought you were clear, but
Adam's failure to delete your signature from my words makes me think he
also might have thought they were your words.  It was I who said the
above, not Richard.  Richard was quoting me from the archives.

And since so many people seem to think those (all of what he quoted --
not just that one sentence above) words were Richard's, why is nobody
accusing him of calling pepperoni a non-meat?  As I've said on various
occasions before, I have never in my life felt paranoid except on
Words-L.  I think this is a pretty clear case of why I might feel that
way on Words-L.

Whew, that's telling.

It's not costly, as for instance skiing and golf would be. It's that only
people of the leisured or professional classes, who traded in cars instead
of driving them till they died a rusty death, would be likely to indulge in.
Part of the vocab lf the upper crust.

My dad, eg, taught himself to play by reading books and bridge columns,
and by using us as the other three players after dinner as soon as 3 of us
graduated from "go fish" to pitch. But some of his Masonic buddies and
their wives - the undertaker, say, or the insurance salesman - you know,
people with <money> and <standing>  - played in foursomes and tournaments.

I believed (this dates me) that I'd never have to learn since I could turn in
handwritten papers as an undergrad. This is not to say that I had no clue how
to type; I certainly had access to all the materials from my father's college
touch typing course, and of course could use a typewriter and mimeograph to
turn out bulletins and church newsletters when Mom had the flu or some such
disaster. I was just pig stubborn on the notion, because my dad kept pointing
out that I could be a secretary after college while waiting to become a
mother. It would come in <handy>.

But many many girls/women I knew were learning to type for just this reason:
 typing jobs paid better than most other jobs (waitressing at a diner, eg)
if you didn't want to teach school or nurse. I personally felt it would be
better to become an electrician or plumber; but of course I wasn't allowed
to enroll in those "boys' courses".

They do "attach" in the same way; but you don't have to get them when you buy
a car. You have the option of insisting on (sometimes paying a little extra
for, though I'm certain Bethany can bargain to have it "thrown in") a "full"
spare.

We had Driver's Ed in high school, but for some rason,
it was a small program.  My father insisted I learn
how to change a tire before I learned how to drive.
The tire he taught me, the driving he did not.  My
boyfriend (later husband) taught the driving.

I find that way weird.  I've never associated bridge with the upper crust.

Masonic buddies?  So the Masons did still exist.  As I think I
mentioned, I was never into bridge-tournament stuff, though I can't see
how choosing to take it to a <higher level> would have anything to do
with wealth (in a case like playing cards).  And certainly playing in
foursomes wouldn't.  I guess it's sort of like most people I've known
have been to Europe, but I must say that most people I've known have
known at least three other people -- iow, playing a game that requires
four is not something I've ever thought of as <unusual>.

I gathered from your previous posting that it must have existed at least
not all that long ago.  I guess the reason I associate it with a good
many years ago is that I've never heard anybody mention it in my
<current> life but do know that my grandfather (who died in the '20s)
was a Mason.  I know that because I found his obituary.  I have it on my
genealogy website.  Lemme look...

Your statement tells me that you didn't appreciate the notion of bridge-

I see I have to be more explicit:
Foursome: a group of four people who regularly meet to play a game as a
social activity.

In my dad's case, I'm sure he could have sat in on friends' games; but he'd
have had to learn in public. "Teaching" us let him work out strategies in
private.

I thought you were younger than I am.  I'm almost sure you are.  I'm
sixty.  I graduated from high school in '61 and college in '65.  Papers
were required to be typed when I was in college.

Ahh.  I do understand that mode of thought, though I had never heard it
said as being a secretary.  It was always about being a teacher.  It
wasn't that my parents said that to me.  I think they just assumed that
I would get married right after college graduation, as my mother had and
as seemed <routine>, and would be a housewife while waiting to become a
mother.  But my general culture said that females should get teaching
certificates and that the usual routine, unlike in my parents'
generation, was for a female to teach for a year or so after getting
married, then quit teaching when motherhood came along.

Teaching school was <standard> for females of my generation/culture.

He actually did some commercials for L'eggs, iirc.  He
played at AL, but is from Beaver Falls, PA, so I sort
of kept up with him.  I've never known anything about
Broadway Joe and Needlecraft.

I've been waiting for someone to mention the gizmos we
carry in our cars.  You plug one into the lighter
source, and it will inflate a tire long enough to get
you to some assistance. (I fully realize that is
relative, but it could come in handy).  We've never
had to use them.  Maybe they don't really work, so no
one else has them (?)

I was just hopping between some high school talk and here (some e-mail
from this bunch of my old hs classmates who were not my good friends but
who have turned into a sort of e-mail group because we did a bunch of
the searching for lost classmates before our reunion a couple of years
ago and have continued e-contact).  And that is why I read the above as
mustard seed.  I don't know mustand sandwiches, but do y'all remember
mustard-seed necklaces?

Perhaps I will explore that the next time I buy a car.  But I probably
won't.  Car tires just don't seem to die anymore.  And if one dies when
I'm on the road, a gallant stranger will come to my rescue.  If it dies
in my driveway, I'll walk to work and then have a service-station person
come deal with it.  The times I changed tires in my driveway were when I
was younger and poorer.

Especially when played in the dark, and the management
has the suitable props to pass around the circle.  For
instance, peeled grapes.

They certainly do still exist, with they're secret
oaths, degrees, eyes, and pyramids.  Almost all of the
Founding Fathers were Masons.  To this say, all
members of the Brit Royal family are members.

When I was writing earlier that we had no Driver's Ed, there was
something niggling around in my head saying that it did in fact exist
but that nobody took it (which makes me wonder how it could have
existed).  I still have that niggling thought, though it really doesn't
make much sense.  In my world, which was the world inhabited by my
classmates, your parents or older siblings taught you to drive.  I was
driving quite well by the age of twelve, though I had to be fifteen to
get a driver's license.  I first sat in Daddy's lap and steered, at the
age of eight or ten, then moved on to driving myself, though always with
  a parent in the car.  When I was about twelve-fourteen, I was
constantly driving the car up and down the driveway, chomping at the
bits, as everybody of that age was in my world, to be able to head on
out to the streets.  I remember adoring the summer visits I made to
Wiggins, Mississippi, where driving age was not considered important.
My friends and I, all under the legal Mississippi driving age of
fifteen, drove all over the place.  The driver's license thing was quite
different in Jackson.  You had to have one.  By the time we were in
about the third grade, we all had found a way to figure out the day of
the week our fifteenth birthday would fall on.  And I had enormous
sympathy since mine fell on a SUNDAY.  That was one of the worst strokes
of luck in my life.  I could not get my driver's license on my fifteenth
birthday since the Mississippi Highway Patrol Office was not open on Sunday.

I am feeling a bit better about what I've feared was rampant alzheimers.
  At first I thought, "what was your comment?"  But pretty quickly I

Much of the world is paranoid, but yours is a
comforting sort of paranoia.  Stay with it.

I'd never thought of bridge as a "group marker."  But you're right that
I have never thought of "bridge-playing ladies" (or men) as being not of
my world.  My parents always played bridge -- not serious bridge -- just
social bridge -- like neighbors would get together and play bridge.  I
have a feeling that tv has changed some of that old culture -- the old
days when neighbors would get together to do whatever.

I don't see why you think you have to be more explicit than you were
before.  Foursome to me also means four people who get together to do
something.  Maybe the problem is the "regularly meet."  I don't know
that a foursome has to regularly meet to be a foursome.  But even if
they do meet regularly, what does that have to do with what you were
saying?  I do think we may live on different planets.  Four people
meeting regularly to play a game does not strike me as <wealth-related>.
  It strikes me as four people meeting regularly to play a game.

I need to log off and go to bed.  I read this last part twice and still
find it weird.  How did we move from your weird-to-me idea that bridge
was somehow an activity for the <wealthy> to your father's need for
<deceit>?  Are you saying that your father had some kind of hang-up re
money?  He wanted to appear to be wealthy?  I'm finding this whole
bridge discussion way weird.

On the eve of my sixteenth birthday, I mailed my
application for a driver;s license to Harrisburg -
mailed it special delivery.  Some postal person had
told me I could force the license people to mail it
back quickly if I enclosed a SASE, also Special
Delivery.  I got the license in two days.

Thanks.  No time for url-chasing tonight.  Am already up past my
bed-time but am feeling kind of crazy from stuff going on and am
therefore up later (which makes no sense, I realize).  Will check the
url later, though, since I've always wondered what Masons were/are.  I
have them mixed up in my head with Shriners, which I also don't know
what are but which I do have memories of -- they drove little carts in
parades in my childhood.  Re why I think Masons have vanished:  it's
because my only knowledge of that term is from long-ago things, like the
  obituary of my grandfather who died in the '20s.  I haven't heard of
Masons in my own life -- i.e., I haven't heard of Masons as a group that
currently existed between March 16, 1943, and December 3, 2003.

I remember his tv ads for pantyhose.  I don't know whether he truly wore
them.  And I don't know anything about his needlecraft.  I remember him
because a student wrote a paper about him when I was student-teaching,
and I checked to find out who he was.  He was a football player at
Alabama.  It was after that that he was advertising pantyhose on tv.

I really don't think I'm paranoid.  I can't remember any context at any
time in my life when I've felt paranoid except for on Words-L.  Whether
it's comfoting, I don't know.  The fact that I'm still on Words-L is
suggestive that it must not be so bad.  But I really do find it strange.
    And I was amused at how my words when people mistakenly put them
into Richard's mouth suddenly were totally different -- no accusations
of mutancy.  That to me was exremely telling.  Exact same words but
(mistakenly) thought to be from another mouth.

"Creepy" is in the eye of the beholder.  They have an
ancient, interesting and tortuous history, for anyone
that likes that sort of thing.  These fraternal orders
seem to have been an early manifestation of "man"
things.  The Masons, at any rate, have a distaff
co-order - the Eastern Star.  I fell into learning
about them because of my great interest in the
relationships of European royalty, 1400's - 2100's.

Sometime this afternoon, my Norton Antivirus started returning an
error that isn't supposed to happen with the 2003 version. The only
thing you can do is delete the temp files, run Live Update, and pray.
Evidently I didn't pray long enough, because I still can't get it to
load. (Yes, I uninstalled it and reinstalled it--still get the same
error.)

I installed McAfee, which hasn't found any viruses. Still--I am seeing
some very funky behaviors. I hate it when computers go bad!!!

That's about the time I'd reformat and re-install Windows.

You got your dl by mail??  Didn't you have to take tests?  The MS
driving age moved up from fifteen to sixteen several years ago, btw.  I
felt sorry for those people about to hit fifteen at that time.

I didn't think you were unclear.  But I do find it mega bizarre that
anybody would associate bridge with the upper crust.  I have played it
many times with many non-crusty people.  And this was not just a
Mississippi thing.  The three years I lived in Florida, bunches of us in
my apartment complex played bridge constantly.

(1) I'm not complaining.  (2) I've said nothing about acquiring a
vehicle.  Could you get a biker's license at fifteen?

If you remember the shrink, you probably did read The Last Precinct.  I
was just flipping through the pages to see if I could find something
specific to tell you.  There was a conversation between Scarpetta and
her shrink.  They were debating the definition of "rules".  I thought
for a minute that I was reading a conversation between you and Bethany!
That, of course, is not enough to determine if you have read the book
but it did amuse me.

It has been a while since I read it but Kay is out of a job; Lucy asks
her to go to work for her company in New York; Kay somehow becomes a
suspect in a murder.  Is that enough?

I graduated from high school in '73 @ 16, and college in '83. I believe my
 extreme youth and very evident poverty may have moved profs to
 accept my handwritten masterpieces, in my first school.

Whatever. I still have some of those papers.

Not only have, but use regularly, for basketballs, bike tires,
and the like. But only a slow leak can be helped by adding
air. If you blow out the sidewall against a sharp rock, or
gash it on metal on the road, it's not going to reinflate.

Yeah, that's a thing to do as well. But my version was
not meant to be scary, but rather participatory and
welcoming.

Natalie, why do you think Shriners wear funny hats
and drive silly little cars? They're Masons!
Also, you can see the Masonic emblem on the backs
of cars everywhere: it's a compass and "rule" -
a "square" ruler.

Other articles have stated there is a heavy demand for Indians who are
accent-free and they spend a considerable period of time preparing for the
jobs. Some companies have a small band either abroad or local to triage the
issue, then either send it to India for level 1 or to the US for level 2
(knowing it's beyond the ability of Level 1 to solve it). If Level 1 is
unable to solve it, it's returned to a different triage group (for
followup|analysis), then rerouted back to the US.

I'm certain the phone systems carrying the phone service are happy with such
systems.

I remember attending a Masonic event when I was in High School.  My girlfriend at the time was being intalled as "Beloved Queen" of the somethingorother (Rainbow Girls maybe?)  I sort of knew about the Masons - my grandfather and my uncle were Masons - but I was totally unprepared for the minutely scripted ritual and the overblown ceremonial goings on. It was one of those moments when the vast differences in what-is-important-in-life surfaced.  We stopped dating shortly after that.   btw - I ran into her at  the 20th  reunion and she was pregnant with her 13th child.

They have a special license plate in Indiana (+$25) "MM nnnn" "MM" (fixed)
then "nnnn" (up to a four-digit number).  This is above & beyond the
standard vanity plates where people can spell messages; e.g., "PB2AU" (lead
to gold)  Other organizational plates:  HH nnnn (Hurryin' Hoosiers, or
Indiana University); PB (Purdue Boilermakers - they don't seem fond of PU as
in "pee yew" ("pyew")); "KF" (Kids First), along with a lot of other
combinations for kids, such as "CF" (Children First); "WF" (Wildlife &
Fish); "AT" (Arts & Theatre); "BE" (Black Expo); "BC" (Breast Cancer); "TU"
(Taylor University, where I went); etc.  The extra $25 is distributed to the
cause.

The first time I was on this list (1990-1992), I worked for a guy who was a
Life Master in bridge and had a Ph.D. in BioChemistry.  Those foolish enough
to play with him at lunch would live with "that is one of the ten worst
moves I've ever seen."  He was also going through his second divorce, was
trying to meet his son (first marriage) whom he'd never met as he was
delivered after the divorce and he'd only made [the required] child support
payments.  He also didn't want to exchange anything verbally - only via
email. And it wasn't for CYA, he just didn't want to talk to anyone - even
if they were in the next cubicle, at the edge of his cubicle, and meetings
drove him silly because he couldn't handle all of the verbal interchange.

I'm not certain what the definition of meat is [then].  If it's something
which comes from an animal, then that means pork rinds are meat as well. If
there's some other definition, I'd like to know what it is.  And whatever
the definition is, I'm doubting if pork rinds are even edible.  I bought the
smallest bag I could find once and tried one.  I barely made it to a trash
can to spit it out - it was as bad as a deep-fried twinkie at the state fair
this year.

No, of course, four people can meet nightly behind the bar to roll craps
as well, or tip cows, or go bowling. It's not wealth-related to
enjoy an activity with the same group of friends, nor is the number of
people involved significant.

Good morning, and
<sigh>.

If your parents played bridge, you of course wouldn't associate anything
with it except the notion "something grownups do". I have described a divide
in my hometown between people who played and did not play bridge. My dad,
while not a farmer or laborer by trade, grew up as a millworker's son. His
family played a different set of card games, not <bridge>. As a minister,
he joined organizations and went to functions where he rubbed elbows with
the "professional" men in the area, and they played bridge.

Where do you read <deceit>? He chose to practice and learn the game so that
he would be able to take part in their activity. He chose to do that with
us. By working through the complexities with other beginners, he was able
to join in at something near the level his peers were playing on.
Geez, Natalie.

If you moved someplace where people played, eg, a complex game like MahJong
and you had not seen it before and didn't know the rules, I betcha you'd
google it and then imftatl to get a notion of how it's played, providing you
were interested in joining the group.

"Man" things, yes, and in a sense proto-Unions as well. Also Utopian in
vision - believing that working together would make them better people, and
more able to improve the world. Most fraternal orders have favorite
charities. Masons have orphanages, old-age homes, and raise money for
sensory disabilities (deaf/blind), among other things. Shriners - a specific
level of Mason which you have to pay whopping fees to join - raise money
for childrens' hospitals.

My mother is Eastern Star; my brothers mercifully escaped DeMoLay Boys,
but my younger sisters grew up in a town with Rainbow Girls and joined that
(this is the Boy and Girl orgs, respectively; but the town I grew up in
was too small and rural to support that many orgs).

What was <very> active in my hometown, and is now nearing extinction in
many places, was Grange -  the Patrons of Husbandry, which (unlike Masons)
 had male and female members who could hold office.

 Modeled after Masons, it was a Union/Fraternity
born during the Populist movement, and was an extremely positive force in
rural communities. It worked/still works actively to increase educational
opportunities, raise the standard of living, lobby for political reforms,
as well as providing a social center for a geographically isolated group.

I held local office in Grange, learned Parliamentary procedure and many
other useful things from them, and held a membership at the State level
as well.

How about we just call them "meat products" and call it even?

The primary method of preventing a teacher from returning?

        $$$$$

(even if there's a shortage)

UL or not, it was said the school corporation wanted to reduce the headcount
of those who had enough seniority that paying one of them could easily pay
for two (or more) entry-level teachers.  My mother's principal decided his
way of doing so would be to move her around to a different grade every year
possible (and told her as much).  So she was moved from 3rd to 5th, to 4th,
then when the principal didn't cover his political back end within the
corporation carefully, she got to move back to 3rd, which is where she
really likes it.  The students really start blossoming in their learning -
they really start to see how fun reading can be, how interesting math can
be, etc.  I even wrote a little step-by-step for her to do with the kids to
find out what day of the week they were born on (without realizing how far
they were in math because I couldn't benchmark where I was at that age).  It
seemed to work out fine and the kids were really delighted with that
exercise.  When visiting, I've also stepped in and juggled five balls for
them and that delights them - I know three would be fun for them but when
it's five...

Natalie, a lot of things have changed over time. I play bridge too - that's
a corollary of my childhood experience. But even though I'm not "crusty"
in appearance, behavior, or attitudes, I am now a person with a family
 income that is approximately 15X what my father earned when he was
raising us. Am I the class I was raised in, or the class my income
assigns to me, or the class associated with my educational status? Once
the GI bill and Pell grants made college accessible to people like my
dad and me, all sorts of designations of class became murkier. My father
learning to play bridge because he was associating with townsfolk who
wore white collars because he was able to go to college on the GI bill
and become a minister is a pretty good example of this.

Had my dad not moved up the ladder socially by getting a white-collar
education (though not white-collar pay!), I would not have learned bridge.
I <might> have learned poker. But I would never have seen anyone who
played bridge except on tv, where they were carefully coiffed ladies who
could afford makeup and stockings and clothes without darns and stains -
a set of images you might have seen as <ordinary women>, but that's
because you come from a different layer of society, yourself.

Please, don't attempt to think of bridge as being "upper crust" on my
account. The thought experiment isn't worth the effort. Just accept that
it was so in <my> world.

What has MSU done occasionally well in? Hoops?  Haven't they made the big
dance several times over the last few years?

Besides, what's SI.com supposed to say about a school?  They're going to be
athleticly focused.  Let'em say what they want. Anyone who plays sports is
not likely to play very long at the next level anyway.  Academics is
something everyone would|should carry with them the remainder of their life.

My hair has started to thin and I had a co-worker make a comment the other
day.  I responded with, "Well, if you want to waste your hormones growing
hair..." (he had to walk away in defeat - he had no comeback)   The same can
be applied to the sports-related issues...

Very cool. Just think how much fun you could have had raising all those
kids though!

fwiw, even though I am awash in Masonic exposure, note that I am neither
Eastern Star nor anything else <joiny> that I have not been dragged into
kicking and screaming.

The NCAA has only gotten past having AA QBs in the previous ten or twenty
years (give or take some wiggle room).  They haven't gotten past AA QBs in
the NFL - it's still a sore spot.  And it's still a *very* open wound for AA
coaches at both the NCAA and NFL levels.

Interestingly, it's not a problem for the NCAA basketball program for
coaches; at least, compared to football, and the NBA is considerably better
off than the NFL, but it's still a touchy issue.

There was a made-for-tv movie called "The White Tiger"/"Grambling's White
Tiger" (???) about a white athlete who attended Grambling (the Tigers?) on a
football scholarship, suffering discrimination.

Once again I call on my computer savvy WL friends for help.

I am composing an email Xmas card
and I want it to play Xmas music.
I found a site with some neat stuff and
want to use a Manheim Steamroller number
from there.  They say we can download,
but I don't know how to do it.

Would someone take a look and see if it
can be done and maybe tell me how?

Thanks.

You're getting the hang of it!  Will you teach any classes next
semester?  Just don't do any summer classes.   Places to go and people to see!

Interested in something really inexpensive (volumewise)?

http://members.microsoft.com/partner/salesmarketing/partnermarket/actionpack
/actionpack_standard.aspx

This is known as an "Action Pack" subscription from Microsoft. It's
$400/year.  Some of it looks to be overkill, but you consider ten licenses
for Office 2003 Professional and ten licenses for Windows XP Professional
($200 each?), how long does it take to pay off the $400 in the savings?  I
started mine in June (I wasn't aware of it until a friend turned me on to
it) and they had a discount coupon which discounted the $400/year to
$99/year.  I've got mine configured for my business at home, but there are a
lot of people who would kill for less.

How so? I could turn mine in handwritten but I was also known as "The Human
Microfiche" and told if I didn't write larger (I used a 0.3mm Pentel pencil)
I'd be docked points just like people who submitted incorrect material.

I can almost date myself on this one.  I had had no exposure to computers
[yet] and my mother claims she didn't foresee the need coming but strongly
suggested I take typing my sophomore year of high school.  I took a full
year and it's paid off in many ways.  I had the ability to turn in papers
typed, I had the ability to type papers for others (for favors to be
collected at a future date  or $, whichever I felt was more valuable from
the individual), I could code a lot faster at a keyboard - except the extra
keys slowed me down a bit, and finally, if something happened and all I had
was hardcopy (or we had hardcopy from a book), I could prop it up and let my
fingers do the walking.

My first job out of college was at a local hospital.  The vendor for the
hospital's mainframe software was known for coming in like stormtroopers,
demanding passwords of any level they chose, etc. - a blank check.  They
also believed heavily in OJT (On-the-Job Training).  People would be on site
and know nothing about the product.  I'd had enough one day when I had to
listen to one of them using a jack hammer on her keyboard in the next
cubicle.  I went to our reserve of spares, went to her cube, opened it up
(it was brand new) and presented it to her.  "What's this for?" "You seemed
to be having problems with your keyboard - as though the keys don't work and
you're having to pound them to get them to work.  I brought you a new one so
you won't have to do that.  If you have any other problems like this, please
let me know."  Fortunately, she got the message.

A couple (brothers) of my teammates (soccer) from the Philippines ordered

Natalie, Another thing I wanted to reply to but couldn't (reasons unclear): Re John's Pizza, they don't sell slices. Pies only. So it will only be of use to you if you are not alone. However, there are many good slice places in the city -- one favorite is Joe's at the corner of Bleecker and 6th Avenue.

Speaking of which (nuggets), I've got a bone to pick with Chez Ronald.  I
know of times past they would advertise the nuggets were white meat (many
years ago), then stopped doing so.  Now, they're doing so again. (remember
these are the "Speed Limit 55 / Big Mac: $0.55" folks)  Does this mean the
other times they were not white meat, or did I dream the first time and they
are now white meat?  I don't knowingly eat dark meat of chickens or turkeys.
And I know you can take dark meat (of either) and "bleach" it (not truly
bleach it but it has the same effect).  I know the only reason it's dark is
because that part of the body got used quite a bit.  If you put a turkey or
a chicken in some situation where they'd use their wings on a fairly
frequent basis - say, strap their feet down and have something which pops up
and scares them into flapping their wings - you'd have dark meat wings
intead of the usual white meat.

(make your life easier: use the advanced search to get 100 hits/page)

Google #1:    all words: "mason underwear mormon"

Google #2:       all words: "freemason"
              exact phrase: "royal family"

In the case of Google #2, you can use "mason" instead of "freemason" but you
get all of the names "Mason" (e.g., Timothy) which clutters the return.  In
the case of Google #1, "mason" is enough.

>Which makes me <heart> my VMware setup all the more...

I attended a local WUG (Windows Users Group) a week or two ago (mostly to
see what they were giving away - the first time, they passed out copies of
Server 2003 Server with a twenty-five seat license).  This time, it was
software which expires in 180 days.

They were discussing Virtual Server, VirtualPC, VMWare, etc.

I used to run VMWare - about the time Microsoft found out how nice it was to
send a dog & pony act into the field and demo all of the various machines
running on a single box and everything could be displayed at will.  There
were rumors VirtualPC/Server would not support Linux, but I saw RedHat et al
loaded & running.  I also saw Microsoft Bob, which I haven't seen outside of
a CD at home in a long, long time.  When he mentioned it, I was in the first
row and asked, "Who was the project manager for Microsoft Bob?"  (Deer in
the Headlights) "I don't know."  (From the back of the room): "Anyone who
knows that deserves a t-shirt!"  (me) "Melinda French.  We now know her as
Mrs. Bill Gates."  I have no idea where I picked that up.

Yuck.  It's a good thing I don't do dinosaur calls very easily (I'm the one
who usually walks in on someone ralphing and holds their forehead and chest
to 1) make it easier; 2) make them less sore the next day or two because the
muscles don't work so hard.  I read a story in the Chicago Tribune (probably
five or six years ago) in the Tempo section which went into great detail
regarding pork rinds - the history, how they're made, etc.  I don't usually
care what goes into a product and in this case I didn't - it was after that
[that] I tried a sample.  Another situation of acquired tastes not falling
into my lifestyle.  I believe #41 and #43 are both big rind fans with
tobasco sauce.

I've heard the ad recently saying they
are now white meat.  Don't know what
they were before.

White meat may work best for nuggets,
but for general chicken-eating I prefer
the dark meat.

"Gwyneth Paltrow pregnant with rock boyfriend"
reads my running headline thingee.  Like I really

to follow (for months and months) of yet another
huge naked belly protruding above low riders.
Like I really needed to see this.

I think the fast food places are fighting tooth-and-nail again (more than
usual).

There aren't as many kid-related movies so there aren't as many gimmick toys
for everyone to collect.

People don't have to eat out (for ease) so they don't [and likely save
money].

There are now places which can outperform McDonald's.  One of them is
Culver's.  Research in some business reports has shown when Culver's and
Chez Ronald are in close proximity, Culver's wins nearly every time.
Culver's has a broader menu, food fixed when you order it - so it takes four
or five minutes but it's always fresh & hot - and so on. I first read about
them in the Chicago Tribune, looked them up online and went to the nearest
one - and have since been hooked and notice when the word is on the page
when I'm reading.  Fortunately, the nearest one is only about fifteen or
twenty minutes away but it inconveniences me because of the road repair -
making me less likely to go there so often.

Traditionally, fast food restaurants could build a unit as part of
"Restaurant Row" and no one would be hurt - there always seemed to be room
for one more.  I've noticed in my various regional travels this is no longer
the case.  There will be a common fast food base with one missing, signs &
lettering stripped (so no one can associate failure with an operation)
although you can tell which store it was.

One of the things McDonald's has failed as an ongoing effort is to (article
from ~ 1999/2000) increase sales to the group they call "adults" - and this
is the only word they use to denote them. They state over & over & over
their attempts to increase the adult segment of their business has met with
"less than expected success."  Their problem is the labelling.  They aren't
having problems attracting adults. They're having a problem attracting
non-parents (or parents /s kids).  They get plenty of business from
"parents" (if you define "parents" to mean adults who have kids in
attendence [with them]).  This type of misunderstanding, such as I mentioned
with the "55mph - Hey! people will think 55 cent Big Macs!" shows they have
some wrong people pushing the buttons, pulling the levers and turning the
dials. And this is precisely what they are seeing flat (or worse) sales.

I think you're missing the point.  Having an African American QB or coach in
the NFL gets plenty of news from common news sources, not Rush, even to the
point of "<x>, who is just one of <y> African-Americans <z> in the NFL."
Even by the broadcasters as part of the game.  They should be beyond it, but
it's still a strong bit of their patter.

<x> fill in name
<y> total number
<z> Quarterback / Head Coach

Are wings considered white meat? I could see the "drumette" being considered white meat but not the other wing part -- the two boned section is most definitely dark.

I wouldn't call that the NFL's AA "sore spot".
(That'd be the SCANDALOUS paucity of black punters.)

The Boston Globe had pictures of the huge traffic snarl on Tuesday
morning.  But we had nothing in Maine.  We are now safely home, well fed,
well-liquored, and having dropped some coin at L.L.Bean.    It looks like
this weekend's Nor'easter will go south of us also.

Interesting but I think this is more for bonniev, really.

My take is either this girl is lying or she is -really- weird, crying
because she can't choose mascara?  JEEZ give me a break.

Well, I can't navigate more than one big store in a day, either, actually.

Never mind.  Figured it out.  That is,
I downloaded it and am able to put it

find a way to have it open and play

My modified form of Zoeller's Congruence (for 1900s):

    1. Last two digits of the year        __ __ __
    2. Divide by four, ignore remainder   __ __ __
    3. Add the day of the month           __ __ __
   [4.] Add the "month code (below):      __ __ __

      *January   0, 1
      *February  3, 4
       March     4
       April     0
       May       2
       June      5
       July      0
       August    3
       September 6
       October   1
       November  4
       December  6

    5. Sum lines 1-4:                     __ __ __

    6. Divide by 7:                       __ __ __

    7: Remainder:                               __

    8. Use the remainder to determine:

       1: Sunday
       2: Monday
       3: Tuesday
       4: Wednesday
       5: Thursday
       6: Friday
       0: Saturday

I step #4 above, use 1 and 4, respectively for all years except Leap Year.
Use 0, and 3, respectively for Leap Year.

For the 2000s, you'll need to add 6 as part of step 5.  Technically, you
could use the 6 elsewhere, but when dealing with people of varying math
backgrounds...

Anyway, this served as as a sample of "Teaching People Something" speeches
in high school & college for public speaking.  The person "in charge"
(teacher, professor) would usually be too busy calculating their own
birthdays than to keep notes.

Curiosity question (from the Words-L type of fun) - seriously:  what does
"exact same" or "same exact" serve which "same" or "the same" does not?  I
have heard it in movies from the 60s and 70s so I know it's not horribly
old.

Yes. Point taken.  I think I know enough plants I could eat to avoid those
organs.  I've dressed chickens & turkeys before (when I was much, much
younger) on my grandparents' farms but any more, if I had to kill what I
wanted/needed to eat, I'd be vegetarian; not vegan, as I'd drink milk and
eat eggs, but even if someone else did the dirty work, I wouldn't eat those
organs.  Ick.

Don't most adults already know the day of the week on which they were born?  Maybe I have an atypical group of friends (I can hear Karen laughing even as I type these words)   but I'm pretty sure that most of my friends could tell you without calculating it.  In some cultures it's a very important piece of information (e.g. Ghana )

My modified form of Zoeller's Congruence (for 1900s):

    1. Last two digits of the year        __ __ __
    2. Divide by four, ignore remainder   __ __ __
    3. Add the day of the month           __ __ __

Anyway, this served as as a sample of "Teaching People Something" speeches

That's the book where Cornwall claims to have solved the mystery of who
Jack the Ripper was.  It's not fiction.  Her conclusions have not been
widely accepted.  But she claims to have done all kinds of sleuth work and
figured it all out.

By the way, when I got to the end of the latest Scarpetta novel (yes, it's
in hardback), I was sooo disappointed.  But then I remembered how I always
feel that way when reading Cornwall.  It is very disconcerting to be able
to see that there are only about twenty pages left in the book and yet lots
of the story is left to be told.  She rushes through her endings.  Another
thing I realized is that her books aren't much of a mystery.  You know who
the killer is all along.  It's only a matter of just how the killer will be
apprehended.  Sometimes they aren't.   Remind me to stop reading these
stupid novels.

Curiosity question (from the Words-L type of fun) - seriously:  what does
"exact same" or "same exact" serve which "same" or "the same" does not?  I
have heard it in movies from the 60s and 70s so I know it's not horribly
old.

"Kofi" means "Male Child born on a Friday"

A friend of mine & I used to use it as a bar line.  He'd engage them into a
conversation and after awhile, I'd point out they couldn't be old enough to
know about topic <x>.  The trick is to get the driver's license out of the
purse/wallet.  Next, it's "Do you know why they take your license back to
their car?  The card is sealed but it's got the day of the week you were
born on on it.  They take it back to their car and place it under that
light.  If the writing isn't there or the day of the week is wrong - either
it's sealed improperly or they changed the date such that the day of the
week doesn't match any more, they know it's fake.  They would usually say,
"No way!"  Then it's "well, sometimes you can see it, 'just so' under
lights."  A couple of looks at arm's length and turn it around a bit (to see
the birthday) and "You were born on a Thursday."  "How did you know that?"
We could easily move to the bar and sit back watching a nice-sized group
trying to look for it ("oh, I think I kind of see it")  A couple of others
usually would come join us about how it worked or to try it out on their
license.

It was more successful than using origami to show George Washington in his
underwear (with a $1 bill) or juggling five pool balls on a bet.

They are calling for 3-6" here starting tomorrow. Tuesdays stuff was only a dusting, but it's been so cold that it's still there in many places -- like my backyard.

That's the way I've always seen it. Phil, where do you get your "above" the waist theory? Wing meat is tender moist dark stuff, not the dry white stuff.

I'm just going by what I was taught growing up.

The bottom line for me is I won't eat anything which is dark meat.  I've
been in situations (e.g., going through the line as part of some function)
and someone is ready to put chicken on the plate after I've passed roast
beef, pork, etc. I look to see what it is.  If I say, "White meat only,
please" some are real twerps about it and say, "Sorry, we can't honor
specific requests", then I just ask for my plate and eat the other stuff on
it. I know I'm a finicky eater and know that's "bad" to some people, but
that's the way I am. And if it means I have to skip a meal, then that's the
way it works out.  My paternal grandparents were of the ilk, "you'll sit
there until you eat it."  My kid sister & I would always outlast them.  And
it would never fail -- they'd hate to go to bed knowing we were sitting at
the dinner table.  My maternal grandparents didn't feed us junk, but we'd
eat chicken/turkey, salad (french dressing only, please), corn, etc.  There
are lots of things I will eat - it's just a matter of understanding what
they are and how I like them cooked. I'm also capable of eating the same
thing every meal every day.  There's also background on my grandparents.  My
paternal had a "Bunker" household: he'd say, "Stifle" (or close to it) and
that was it.  Confrontation was the rule.  My mom said she never knew how to
argue until she married her ex because she didn't have an example growing
up.

This explains everything. Somebody lied to you in order to convince you
to eat more parts of the bird. So you've been eating dark meat all this
time with no ill effects whatsoever. Anyway, you've made countless people
who grew up fighting over the drumstick happy with your choice.

Whatever it's called, I like eating the white, light, soft meat. And I don't
eat with both hands. I use a hand and a fork. This has gone on as far back
as anyone in the family can remember my knowing how to use a fork.  That
way, I have one clean hand.  And I don't eat sandwiches by picking them up.
I use utensils for those as well.

My parents played 500.
Gene and I played bridge when we were in
our 30-40's.  Since then we enjoy games that
are simpler, like Spades or dominoes or
board games.

That was my first thought too, and then I worked it

together with her rock boyfriend, are creating
a baby."

All things edible are good.  It's just that to each of us, some
things are better than others, meaning we all have preferences.
Now, the interesting thing is most of us didn't actually choose
all of our preferences or our dislikes.  We inherited them by
observing what our parents liked and didn't like.    This is
an easy thing to see when you've watched 4 generations come
along.  Sometimes adults realize this and try foods they had
seldom tasted because of their parents, and find that they
really do like them.

I hate to see parents manipulate their kids through food.
"Sit there until you eat everything on your plate" is so often
ordered by a parent who loaded the plate for the child,
using his own appetite and his own taste as a guideline.
As a Great Grandma this is the hardest thing for me to
watch and to keep my mouth shut.  My rule was that a
child was encouraged to take some of everything but was
allowed to eat more of things he liked best, less of things
he liked least, and then to quit when he was full.  Making
a fuss about food creates a person who will make a fuss
about his food and make kids who fuss about their food,
in one way or another.  To eat and to enjoy one's food
should not be that big a deal.  For most of us there's
plenty to go around, and in places where there isn't they
would be glad to have food, much less all our choices.

This confused me for a few seconds.  To me, PKs are player-killers --
players in online fantasy games who attack their fellow players instead of
killing dragons and such.

"Preachers' kids", I assume.

Okay, I figured that out too.  Can do all

This all sounds familiar.  I feel sure I've read it.  If I see it on a
rack somewhere, I'll glance inside and then know for absolute sure.
Usually the first sentence tells me whether it's one I've already read.

My <claim> was about what *I* thought.  And it was quite accurate.  I
had no idea that Shriners and Masons were the same thing.  (And why
would their wearing funny hats and driving silly little cars indicate to
me that they're Masons?)

I have quite likely seen such an emblem but wouldn't have had any reason
to know what it was.  I do remember that there's some kind of emblem on
the front of an old brick building in Jackson (the one no doubt that was
involved in my grandfather's funeral march) that says "Masonic Lodge" in
old letters over its door, but ever since I can remember, there has been
another sign on that building that says something else -- some kind of
mission thing.

Sorry I misunderstood what you wrote.  It was this part -- not wanting
to learn "in public" -- wanting to work out strategies "in private":

The paranoia is in noticing that if what I said about pepperoni is
thought to have been said by somebody else, then it magically is no

They are not exactly the same thing.  Shriners have moved up through the
Masonic system (no, I don't understand just how this happens, but it
does).  So, all Shriners are Masons; not all Masons are Shriners.  And as
far as I know, only Shriners get to wear those funny hats.

Why is this addressed to me?  The topic morph is fine -- I like them.  I
was just wondering what it had to do with my comments about never having
associated bridge with one's social class.

Yes, you have convinced me of that.  I think one reason I find the idea
strange of a town's having a division between those who played bridge
and those who didn't is that I grew up in a city.  Maybe people in South
Jackson didn't play bridge.  There wouldn't have been any particular
reason/way for me to know what they did or didn't do for recreation.

Baseball is the only sport MSU is consistently pretty good in.  Sure,
the basketball team sometimes gets into that huge number of teams in the
NCAA tournament.  But it doesn't usually go very far.  And sure the
football team goes to minor bowls fairly often.  But not to major ones.
  I think the tennis team has won various honors at times but isn't
famous.  Etc.

Masons work through degrees of membership to increasingly select circles;
the first 4 get you into basic "citizenship" (voting, holding office,
knowing the secret codes, etc.). Each succeeding "degree" includes more
responsibility and higher dues. Shriners are something like - oh, 56th
degree; the highest I know of is Scottish Rite, which I think is 70th.

A friendly gesture. Note that I have not in general jumped on the "mutant"

Quite a bit of wiggle room.  I know we had AA QBs before that.  I'm
trying now to remember whether the black football star when I first
started teaching here (Jan. '70) was a QB.  I'm thinking he was since he
was a star -- which is something QBs often are, but maybe he played
another position.  The reason I remember him is that he was very
versatile and had a great life going for him but then died young.  While
at MSU he was both a football star and Mr. MSU -- an odd combination
since usually football players aren't much involved with anything other
than football and aren't thought much about outside the fb context.  He
married a <nice girl> and went to med school after graduating.  But a
few years later word spread that they had gotten a divorce because he
had decided he was gay and that he had quit med school.  Some number of
years later he died.  I can't remember of what.  Possibly AIDS, though I
don't remember hearing that.  My point is simply that I don't usually
remember fb players, but he was memorable.  I just don't remember
whether he was a QB.  I remember some black QBs not many years after
that, though.

Well, I did eyeball some chairs in the Union lounge area today, not far
from the ballroom, and concluded that one of them could be dragged into
the ballroom in a pinch.  They're not ideal but would be better than
having Santa standing or sitting in a metal folding chair.  I'm going to
do some more chair checking tomorrow.  Today got majorly eaten up by
other things.  At least now I have finalized the food order with Dining
Services, turned in the set-up chart to the Union set-up office, checked
on the health of the piano and mic, communicated non-stop with the ARF
treasurer, the Provost's secretary, the entertainers, etc., and turned
in a request at the Landmark Cafe for four gift certificates, which I
will pick up tomorrow afternoon.  I've also communicated with somebody
who has a truck about possible help in transporting poinsettias from
Walmart.

I'm hoping not.  I've decided I want to be really retired.  There's a
slight possibility that I'll be teaching one course next semester
(Language & Culture, 8:00-9:15 TTh), but I'm trying to convince the dept
head to axe it since there aren't many students pre-registered for it.

How big are the pizzas?  I can eat a whole small one, unless it's

Old?  I've never thought of it as old or young.  I think it's something
I've heard and said all of my life -- as in it was around years ago and
is still around.  What it serves that either one of the words by itself
wouldn't is emphasis.

Speaking of junk books, John Grisham did a nice thing yesterday.  He
flew down to attend a retirement reception for one of my lunch bunch --
which I didn't go to because I had a commitment to be at the public
library at that time.  I heard today that JG had come.  JG knows the
retiring person well since he (the retiring person) was MSU pres when JG
gave all his books and papers and stuff to us.  And, fittingly,
yesterday's reception was in The Grisham Room of the library -- and the
former pres, after stepping down as pres because he developed MS, has
been somehow in charge of The Grisham Room, among other jobs on campus.

Do you mean something that checks for spyware and removes it? Yes, I
use both Spybot and AdAware regularly. Used them earlier today.

  "Do you want cheeky or sexy?"  I understood sexy, so I chose
  cheeky, a possible safe middle-ground.

I submit that "a possible safe middle-ground" is an Ann Borkin

Thanks.  I figured out the Mason-Shriner relationship from later
postings.  I don't know why the hats and cars should have indicated to
me that Shriners were Masons, though.  (That might have been mentioned
somewhere.  I've been zooming.  Was determined to clear out the e-mail
before Survivor time.  I feel Survivor starved since it's been over a
week.  I kept telling myself today while in the throes of banquet
details that tonight I could sit down and enjoy Survivor.)

I'm pretty sure that I've mentioned that before on this <service> --
about how after getting to college I learned about the kind of class
consciousness that existed in small towns.  The kind of cross-section of
people one gets to know when growing up in a small town is good in many
ways, but otoh there was something not so bad about growing up without
thinking about social classes (other than black-white, of course).

Thank you for releasing the niggle from my brain!  Did you read my
dissertation title in the program that day?  Or I guess they put such
things in the program.  They do here.  They mailed me my diploma in a
cute orange-and-white mailing tube, but I don't think they mailed me a
program.

        I'm really stuck on this idea that chickens have a waist,
personally.  I'm going to look carefully while Ana is
chasing them this weekend and they fly up the hay bales and
stuff.

Just as I have shared that I grew up in a
small town where there was no class
consciousness of any kind.  Well, one
kind.  There were the drinkers and the
non-drinkers, but even that was just
accepted.

Tuesday's child is Child of Grace, which I am.  But I must admit that I
had no idea what day of the week I was born on until sometime in
middle-age when I was looking at a universal calendar and suddenly
thought about it.

We just got one here this year.  It's not
doing too well, I don't think.  Back in
Wisconsin (its home) it has fans big time.
One of their favorite items there is the
deep fried cheese curds.

Their specialty is the butter burger.
I like some of their offerings (like their
frozen custard with daily special flavors), but find they cost a bit
more than some fast foods.  Their place has a nice design and is
immaculately clean.

You can look it up, I'm sure.

I was born on a Friday at 4:30 a.m.

I've tried the cheesy Gram's Gourmet pork rinds and they're pretty good. For
those of us who can't eat the stuff the cheese powder normally comes on,
it's a nice alternative. Ditto with the cinnamon sugar.

I think it's the fire hazard. When the complex was revamped a few years
ago, firewalls were put in between units - thus lowering insurance costs
considerably. I suspect this is related.

I don't understand.  It's a clipping of microphone.  Where would a k

Until a few years ago, everybody said /maIk/ for microphone - and spelled
it mike. Then all of a sudden it started being spelled <mic> - and
pronounced /mIk/, I assume - since a change in spelling often coincides
with a change in pronunciation. It's /maIk/ to me. Mic spells /mIk/ =
Mick.

This seems to be a good point at which to ask the
etymology of the phrase "brand new". ?

I believe you so submit because it encompasses many of
the areas that seem to revolve in the Mme. Borinki
mind.  But having written that, I cannot explain it.
Perhaps the use of the word "possible" is the key.
What do you think?

How picky can you be when you've spent your entire
life believing chicken wings are white meat?  It
reminds me of Shaw's vegetarianism.

m-w:
Main Entry: brand-new
Etymology: brand(1)
Date: circa 1570

where brand(1) is the "firebrand" sort of thing.

====

"Brand-new has nothing to do with the brand name of a product. It is rather
associated with the word 'brand' that is cognate with 'fire,' as in
firebrand. The product would thus be fresh from the anvil, or as
Shakespeare put it in 'Twelfth Night,' 'fire-new.'" From "Encyclopedia of
Word and Phrase Origins" by Robert Hendrickson (Facts on File, New York, 1997).

According to the "Morris Dictionary of Word and Phrase Origins" by William
and Mary Morris (HarperCollins, New York, 1977, 1988), the word "brand"
"...dates back to the Middle Ages and earlier, when 'brand' meant 'flame or
torch' as it does in the still current phrase 'snatching a "brand" from the
burning.' The description 'brand-new' in those days was applied to products
-- usually made of metal -- newly taken from the flames in which they were
molded."

My life went the other way around.  My father tried to teach me how to
drive but my husband insisted on teaching me how to change a flat

I've never heard anybody pronounce it any way other than /maIk/
(allowing, of course, for the not-quite-diphthong in Southern speech,
though it's pretty close to the diphthong before a voiceless consonant).

I've never heard it pronounced /mIk/ by anybody.

It's /maIk/ to me also.  So you're saying that somebody who spells
microphone as microphone says /mIkr{swhwa}fon/?  Or are you saying that
you spell it mikeraphone?

And this reminds me of firebird (that's the name, isn't it?), which
reminds me of Mozilla, which reminds me to tell you again that I am
quite happy with Mozilla, thought there are still a few minor glitches.
  One is that I clicked on the url in reading mail late this afternoon
to see whether The White Dog was still romping around SD Lee's statue,
and it told me that I needed a plug-in.  So I followed the url to get
the plug-in, told it to download java, and the download aborted because
I didn't have file somethingorother.  Another is that Marie's postings
veer off to the right into unreadableness when I suck them in to reply
to them.  I looked at the archives out of curiosity and saw that her
postings stop after the first line in the archives also, so I think the
problem may not be Mozilla.

My main point is to thank you for Mozilla.  I'll work out the minor
glitches sooner or later.

Yes, I think you're right.  Something about faith and moving mountains?

Yes, so far my luck has held, as well.  And that's a
lot of years of driving.

Yes, needlepoint, I believe.  Several years ago, a
friend of mine at the office started a huge
needlepoint project, a reproduction of a Bayeaux
tapestry or something.  She did one half of the
needlework.  The Fire Chief did the other half.  His
was a bit better.

For a while there, it seems to me, everything was
mustard seed. Key rings, necklaces, bracelets.
barrettes.  The reference is something like "If ye
have faith but the size of a mustard seed..."

It reminds me of my Dad--I made him eggplant parmesan once, and he
raved about it, so I took the chance and told him what it was. He
couldn't finish it.

I would dearly love to know. We get re-re-re-runs on
Sci-Fi Channel at 8:00 AM. Saturdays.  We own a few on
VHS, but I have problems recognizing the movies from
the plot summaries.  I really miss them.  Crow is my
benign twin.

How are the Duncans?

Bingo.  The draft entry for the new edition gives the first citation as
1961.  The citation itself says "Abbr. mike or mic".

Towns don't actually technically have or not have consciousness. People do;
and you can't generalize from your own consciousness to everyone else's. Both
Natalie and Doris can't recall observing or knowing about class distinction
as children. Natalie tentatively puts this down to having grown up in a
homogeneous neighborhood.

I look back on childhood and draw conclusions about experiences and
 associations that may have been class-related. IMO that's sort of apples
and oranges to what I may have known as a child.

Actually, I was being humorous. AFAIK, there's no actual tipoff to the Mason

Mom's giving up smoking again, not due to her health but

standard winter cold.  My elbow is still bothering me a
bit.

Bennie woke me up by playing on my bed; he loves
sleeping as close to me as he can get; Sweetie used
to sleep on my bed, but she sleeps on Mom's bed now.
They still don't get along, but there's been nothing physical,
just growls and barks, and I've been trying to give them
each as much attention as I can get.

How are you doing?

Re our earlier discussion of my desire to go to Jackson tomorrow, now I
know that I will.  I just got <a sign>:

*********************************
....
"Her love for the scores of students she taught over the years here in
Jackson prompted her to contribute this tree,"Johnson said. "We
certainly hope that her former students in the state and city, as well
as everyone, will come and enjoy its beauty this holiday season."
....
Breland plans to attend the tree-lighting ceremony after Jackson's 2
p.m. "Holiday Magic" Christmas parade Saturday.
....
************************************
from: http://www.clarionledger.com/news/0312/05/m05.html

As one of her former students in the state, I need to go enjoy the
beauty of her tree.  This will mean that I'll have to spend Saturday
night since watching a tree lighting after a parade that starts at 2:00
means darkness would be upon me coming home.  But Spencer can handle a
night alone, and I can come up early Sunday morning.  Miss Breland, who
is close to 100 years old now, was my eleventh grade English teacher.

The best casserole I cook has ingredients so far out in left field that I
can never tell anyone what is in it - uuntil well after dinner. No, I

Take advantage of her good impulse! If her worry abt yr health
will lead to a good effect (quitting), encourage it - instead
of saying "don't worry", say "you are such a good mother for
doing this for me!"

btw, Our standard winter colds, earaches, strep throat bouts,
sinus infections, etc. lessened in number and severity once
my husband finally came to the decision that he shouldn't
smoke in the house. Although <his> health was still affected
by smoking, ours was dramatically improved in a short while.
So don't be so sure that your mother's idea is needless worry.

This is good news - the pecking order is being established,

Natalie is asking why you don't permit knowledge of the full form to
influence your pronunciation of the clipped spelling - as we do here,
when referring to "open mic nights", which seems to happen about
equally with the <wrong to my eyes> "Open Mike night" (That seems

preference isn't <standardised> yet.

Oh. It's because of context and history, of course. Consider sic, tic,

We have a Masonic Lodge right here in tiny Bar Harbor.  Masons loom large
in Dan Brown's _Angels and Demons_, a book many people are now reading,
having enjoyed his very popular _Da Vinci Code_.

You do too what??  Find it way weird or associate it with the upper
crust?  I understand completely what Clo is saying.  I must have been
brought up in a similar social strata.  I associate tennis, downhill
skiing, and playing bridge with the higher classes.  My family played
poker, at home, with other family members on Saturday nights.  On weekday
nights, Dads came home from the factory, had some supper, watched a bit of
TV, and fell into bed so that they could do it all again the next day.

Hey, if she can quit for any reason, more power to

My elbow is still bothering me a bit.

You should have it looked at one a non-emergency
basis.  You don't want it to turn into a chronic
problem.

I don't think they have personal sized pizzas. The smallest might be a 14-inch pie. I don't think you can eat that alone. Even I couldn't eat that alone, and I can put away quantity.

We got conflicting accounts:  one said that he was 15 months old;

The other night, he saw the neighbor's dogs through the window, so
he had to go out and check the courtyard to see if things were OK.

This is not the case with Microsoft's Action Pack. A year or two ago you had
to enter a Federal Tax ID # to indicate you were a business (even an S-Corp)
but they've since relaxed it such that you can simply put a company name on
it.  I use my company name and put "attn: Internet Services" to add
legitimacy should questions arise.  This paid off recently when I had a CD
start to crack from the inside ring outward and I had to call for a
replacement.  After asking for my account number, they started to review my
account then saw the company name & "attn:" and said, "Never mind" and went
forward with reordering the replacement (including a very profuse apology
for the disk cracking).  That is one aspect I've experienced with both IBM
and Microsoft over the years:  once you are "in the family", they are very
generous with what they'll make accessible and gracious with supplying
replacements.  I know they are tyrants in many circles, but when you rely
upon their products for income it makes it easier to play by the system.

Probably Big O, the first three episodes.  I already have
that and am buying the second three today.  I want to
see what Cartoon Network cut out of their version of the
first series.

Big O is an anime series that started in 1999.  It's about
Roger Smith, the top negotiator for Paradigm City.  Everyone's
memories were wiped out forty years before the series takes
place.  Roger is also the pilot of a Megadeus (giant mecha
[robot]) that was left from the time before the catastrophe which
wiped out everyone's memories.  Assisting Roger is his ward,
R. Dorothy Waynewright (an android copy of the original Dorothy
Waynewright; R. Dorothy was created by the original Dorothy's
father in grief over her passing), and his butler Norman (who keeps
Big O (the mecha) in proper working order.

The first series was not a hit in Japan but was a big hit here.
So Cartoon Network has hounded the original producers to create
a second series that would start immediately after the first series
ended, right at a cliffhanger in which Roger, R. Dorothy, and Big
O were to confront three Megadeuses that came from outside
of Paradigm City.

It is. I didn't think that either of them were shortened forms, so I
don't know how you can reasonably analogize. OTOH, I can't immediately
think of another word with the long vowel in the middle, though I know
there are some that were derived the same way.

Yes, I sympathize! There are long-term changes in the brain
that have to be undone. If she sticks it out for the week,
will you get her more and urge her to keep going?

btw, lots of crunchy food (like celery, which has no calories)
can be helpful in working off some of that irritable energy.
I also chewed cinnamon sticks, which felt like a cigarette
in my mouth, when I was quitting.

Hmm, an interesting premise. I see patternmaking as the basic unit of
cognition; I'd expect people to compartmentalize in different areas, but
not less overall. eg, is it compartmentalizing to put childhood memories
inside the set of items that can be analyzed politically, or is it
compartmentalizing to wall them off from that category? Is it
 compartmentalizing to separate political and social facts from those things
that are worthy objects of attention?

Perhaps more relevant, do <you> see a change in understanding of a situation
over time and maturational stages as uninteresting, not worth
compartmentalizing? That's the reading I get from the juxtaposition of your
response to my comment.

I can do it because the forms are in my head. Language and logic have

Thanks for the info.  There are still Grange Halls in this area of

I'm still thinking about what Doris said:  she was in a small town and
there were no class differences.

I was in two small towns as a child, one in South Carolina and one in
Wisconsin.  The population of the Wisconsin one was something like 626 and
I don't think the SC one was bigger, maybe smaller.

Anyway, Doris, in your town there weren't poor people?  Or all were poor?
No 'wrong side of the tracks'?

That's an interesting problem indeed.  It's easier to be raised poor and
find yourself better off as an adult than it is to be raised wealthy and
find yourself poor as an adult.  I have an ex-friend who went from the
wealthier classes to the working poor.  She had no idea how to live as a
poor person.  For example, she would spend money on getting her apartment
carpets professionally cleaned two or more times a year.  I don't think she
even knew about the machines you can rent at the grocery store in order to
do it yourself.  And she very definitely preferred to not eat at all than
eat simply.

He looks quite content.  This one of his more polished

in mid-project) that Doris was talking about awareness of class, not
differences in income in the abstract. iirc, she and the people she went

discussed, or categorized people in this way.

And even that - the notion of getting carpets cleaned at all, even w/ a
rented machine, is way above the experience of poverty for many. It's
shocking how expensive it is to be clean - a fact people who have not been
there can't appreciate very well.

Interestingly, a late-night discussion with some newly met persons
led to a comparison between urban extreme poverty locally and the
experience of a person who was in the Honduras in the '80s, and saw
the abject poverty of the poor there. My interlocutor finally copped
to being in the "lost battalion" of soldiers who were illegally
assisting insurgents against the Sandanista government, and while
he clearly had a social conscience made no connections at all between
his presence and role and the events that create and perpetuate the
inequities he decried.

Be careful of the cinnamon.  I used those as well for a while---until the

Actually, no.  My one grandmother lived
on one side of the tracks, my other one
lived on the other side.  No difference in
their status.

Fact is, I don't think we had any really rich
people or any really poor.  Maybe most were
low average.  I don't know.  So maybe
homogenous is the word.  Nevertheless it
shaped the attitudes of people who grew up
there.

The thing is, I don't remember giving things
names.  (With the exception of "town drunk",
which stood out because very few people
there drank at all)  Rich bitch?  Never heard of
that attitude. People there who owned several farms
were  like anyone else and in church they sat right by
the hired men (and anyone else).
Blue collar workers?  No, here most were blue
overall workers, and that's a different climate.
I didn't know any ladies who had maids or
cleaning ladies.  But farm wives often had "hired
girls" to help with the household chores . . . so the
wife could go out into the field and husk corn or
drive the tractor.  Hardly a status thing.

Oh. Like, people might have used language like "she comes from a good
family" or "they're poor as dirt", but they didn't think of these as class
distinctions?

Change is almost assured as one goes
through life, and memories can be dim
or distorted.

 But what I'm talking about is that for some people life experience sort
of flows through them, while others want to catch it, analyze it, break
it down, give it names, and put it into boxes.  Two people could have
grown up in the same environment and be different in this respect.

If someone hands me a rope and sends me down the street to get another piece
the same size, that what they'll get.  If someone sends me down to get one
the "exact same" size, I'll be asking them what "exact same" means vs. the
first request.

If one hopes to get inside & order at the Fort Benjamin Harrison (IIRC, is
the facility screwing up the military paychecks these days) it would be wise
not to do so when there are certain cycles of activity:  church(es) let out,
end of "soccer afternoon" (Saturday and Sunday), supper (after school), etc.
If they were to put a Culver's next to each Ritter's, Ritter's[1] wouldn't
have a need to open next Spring.

[1] especially when considering Ritter's cannot serve anything but custard
and Culver's can sell custard + *.

If you're *really* enthusiastic, you can donate to the Mozilla Foundation:

I'm happy to hear that words like "rich bitch" weren't part
of the atmosphere for you. And no, I don't suppose people
did give things names. As you say, people who owned farms
sat by hired men; and nobody pointed out "hired girls" as
a luxury compared to families where the wife both drove
tractor and did what housework she could manage.

Likewise, my mother worked in tobacco fields alongside the
grandchildren of former slaves, and was raised by the cook
because her mother was in a malarial coma when she was
born. The family income of all was derived from tobacco
and labor, and there were many shared experiences. There
were also many experiences that were <not> shared.

The fact that one family has a cook and one
family has a mother who is the cook <is> a fact, and in
looking back, it is possible to discern the difference
and understand that there are some differences in experience
even though no one remarked on it <at the time>, particularly
to children.

And I hope if they're out when you go back to ask, you'll stretch and
compare the two in order to minimize the minor variations that may occur
in cutting rope.

Exact same size differs from same size with an effect of "measure twice,
cut once" compared to "close enough for govt work", eg

which I can only assume belonged to my grandfather.

I always thought that the Masons didn't have Jewish members.

Interesting article.  I quote the ex-Buddhist nun:

"So why would I leave? I felt that there were places where there was a real
need, places where perhaps I couldn't help as a nun. I still have as much
of a commitment and respect for the teachings, teachers and practices as I
always did. I still do the same work, only I do it more universally."

Let me make it perfectly clear, not that everyone doesn't already know
this, I felt nothing like that kind of commitment when I walked out of the
convent.  To hell with the vows.  To hell with helping the world.  That was
my thought.

Masons, like many other organizations, have had to work their way through
discrimination issues. Knights of Columbus was the Catholic answer to
problems with being members of a "secret rite" org that in theory you
weren't supposed to talk about even to your priest; but I have always
suspected it was also a defensive move, since Catholics weren't welcome
in many communities. Likewise, there are still primarily A-A chapters and
a parallel group whose name I have forgotten. My dad has been active in
breaching divides between such orgs, since both are important issues to
him.

I thought you had said that mic is to you pronounced [maIk].

I haven't checked the forecast, but I very much hope that there's not
the nasty wind there tomorrow that there is here today.  It's biting.

Downtown Jackson may be a mess with a parade etc.  I'm still pondering
plans.  Almost certainly I'm going, but I'm trying to decide what to try
to do about my car and my whereabouts when I get there.  I'll go to the
crafts fair first thing upon early-morning arrival.  There's ample
parking there.  It's after that that I'm not sure about.  It's within
walking distance, though not what I'd call easy walking distance, from
there to City Hall, where the xmas-tree lighting will occur.  Being a
fairly brave sort, I might go on and walk, though the route is not one
that would be deemed <safe> by the faint of heart (or the prudent).
Trying to drive might be a problem, though, with streets no doubt closed
for the parade and with no idea where one parks in downtown Jackson
these days.

I don't think it matters. My own children, about 3 years apart, remember
things differently. The third way is the way I remember  things.

I was not aware that there were regional variations in spelling.  Are
there?  (I mean regional within a country.  I realize that different
countries have different spellings.)

I can't remember pizza sizes.  I've eaten what are called "small pizzas"
by myself before.  I'm not talking about "personal pizzas" -- just small
as in small, medium, and large.  But, as I said, I wouldn't be able to
do that with a thick crust and lots of toppings.

Yes, Spencer is a very understanding dog, though he's having trouble
right now understanding why I don't want to take him walking in this
horrendous wind.  Now, however, I must call the Chester Hotel (actually
the Landmark Cafe) again to find out whether the gift-certificate person
is back and go get the gift-certificates for the banquet people.

I really thought it more appropriate for you. I am less interested in
the "former nun" part than the strange attempt to justify herself in
her moving back to the "real world".

Yup. (Of course that bit sounds like something from one of those Ayn
Rand shorts. Maybe it *is* a bonniev thing after all.) And somehow
wanting to have it all. Oh well - easy for me to criticize...

1) It's not a free-trade place, at all. Everything is made there.
When was the last time you saw a TV set or coffee maker or telephone
made in the US or Canada? ALl those things are just about universally
made in China now. But in Brazil they're all Made in Brazil. It's
weird. Some of the stuff is a generation or two old, but much is
quite up to date. Electronics (cellphones, cameras, etc.) are
expensive - maybe 1.5 to 2 times the price in Canada. But lots of
stuff seems cheap.

2) Coffee is good, but it is near impossible to get it milky. You can
have it "with milk", but it just does not normally come in anything
except tiny cups. If you insist obnoxiously, you may get a slightly
larger cup with a little milky froth on top. There's no Starbucks
(yay?), so I couldn't check to see if the Seattle norms had
penetrated everywhere. One "Italian" place had "latte" (which the
server pronounced in the Portuguese way as roughly "latch-ay"), but
even it was big on coffee and short on milk.

3) *That* look - AKA "if you've got it, flaunt it". There certainly
is a cultural thing that allows/suggests/forces(?) women to show it
off. At the bank where we were, the men were wearing conservative
suits, and half the women were dressed such that they would have been
told to go home and change from a 2003 Toronto office in the summer
(and Toronto isn't the tightass place it was 30 years ago).
Specifically, there is a how-shall-I-say, uplifted look that's very
popular in a not entirely artificial looking way.

The obvious question is where all the women who don't have it are.
They seem to be invisible or nonexistent. At the same time there
isn't an obvious sexist attitude among the men - certainly no
leering, touching, comments and such. Maybe this is just wishful
thinking, and the sexual attitudes are much deeper, i.e. women don't
need visible harassment to be oppressed.

Overall it was just slightly creepy. I would have been very
interested to have a female colleague along to get her reaction, and
theirs to her.

When we are dining with our nieces at my mom's (they are less finicky than I
am), they will occasionally balk and that's when Holly will grab my plate
and match my plate's contents with what they don't want.  She assures them
it's something I detest even more than they do - something Grandma (my mom)
can back up as well from my upbringing.  Then it's pretty fun for them to
realize that although they don't like it, they're watching me have to eat it
along with them (and not enjoying it *at all*) - and knowing I'm not
cheating (get a mouthful, wash it down, repeat).

Most of my high school friends were PKs and MKs.  (The World HQ for the
denomination was in the adjacent town).

There were a lot of both in college - but my soccer teammates were 2/3
international (i.e. the % of the people on the team who were not from North
America) and practically all MKs or those sent by missionaries. (It helped
to have a lot of international experience on the team to offset those of us
who had much, much less exposure.

I don't remember how this resolved itself, but you have to remember what
Microsoft's underlying business model works:  cripple products in various
stages to force people to spend more.  When they purchased HotMail, it ran
on *nix and did so for quite a long time thereafter.  There weren't many
restrictions at first.  Then they started clamping down for people who had
free access but offering a paid service for those needing more room, and
MSN[1] was available for those who needed the heavy duty services.  It's the
same way with Outlook Express - which, BTW, will no longer have any code
added to it - it's a static product; and this has been announced in print
*by* Microsoft, so it's not UL|FOAF.  So folks who are dependent upon OE
will eventually find themselves locked out.

[1] MSN was predictable, just as Windows was.  In the case of MSN, Microsoft
sent a band of consultants to Compu$erve to help them deal with their
growing pains (this would have been before 1990).  I told my co-workers, "It
would appear Microsoft is preparing to create an online service to compete
against Compu$erve and AOL."  That caused a lot of derision...until.... The
way I knew was because Microsoft would always help someone with their needs
and learn the technology & Way of Life at the same time, then come home and
apply what they'd learned - usually for something new.  They did the same
thing with IBM and OS/2.  After that contract ended, it caught IBM by
surprise.  They (IBM) thought Microsoft would renew the contract and things
would continue as-is.  Little did IBM know [that] Mr. Gates was about to
stick it to them for the second time.  (the first time was when they
licensed DOS to IBM instead of selling it, even tough they didn't own DOS
yet - they had a bid of $50k to the guy and were waiting to hear back while
they were meeting with IBM)  The second time, Microsoft was well on their
way to launching Windows but it was nowhere near what OS/2 had on the table.
Although there were attempts to maintain some compatibility between Windows
& OS/2 programs, IBM more or less fell by the wayside after that.

It doesn't matter. This has come up before. I'm a primary ambidextrous.
Sometimes it depends upon which side of the plate the fork is on, other
times it depends upon which side I'm catching an elbow from.  I'm able to
accommodate. But when I use fork & knife, I do eat European style. My mother
does not remember me eating any other way.

Hmmm.  I got my diploma in an orange and white mailing tube also.  I wonder
where it is.  I have no memory of seeing it since we moved to Maine.  I
think our marriage certificate is in that tube also.  I should go look around.

...and since I seem to be on a Phil jag here:

Phil, you asked about foisting green
ketchup (or was it catsup?) on kids.

I have no spawn, but I do have a bottle
of green ketchup (the Heinz spelling)
that I bought when Karen was saving
Austin by wearing green socks.

Anyway, the dye they use to make it
green (as opposed to the dye they use
to make their regular ketchup red) is
really powerful.  As in, it takes more
than once to wash it off.

So kids'd prolly like it because it can
turn them green.

Interestingly (to me, at least) is that
the green ketchup has:

"20% DV more vitamin C than our regular
ketchup which has 0% DV vitamin C"

(DV is "Daily Values")

My question: How do you over-process
tomatoes so much that they have NO
vitamin C left?

jeebus.

Love apples, in their native state, have
more vitamin C than even oranges, don't
they?

No matter how it's prepared?  I know people
who will only eat it if it is cooked til it's soft
and gray.  Others like it just barely cooked,
still green and crisp, and put into a sesame
seed marinade or something like that.  Asparagus is the only vegetable
my daughter won't eat, although she is a strict vegetarian.  Asparagus
is the only vegetable her husband will eat, although he's the one who
likes it
cooked to death.  <sigh>

              - D. M.
he's the one who likes it

Started setting it up tonight, and discovered that I'm going to
have to go to Radio Shack and get an RF modulator and a
powerstrip.  So, I'll have to do that after work tomorrow.

Oh, well; Big O will have to wait.

Yes, thank you.  I did it in my head because I was too lazy to find pen and
paper.  I came up with Thursday and thought that had to be wrong.  So I
googled and also came up with Thursday.

It's one of my favorites.  Tonight we had it to accompany pan-grilled pork
chops and oven-fried potatoes (with onion, garlic, and fennel).  I did the
asparagus in the microwave, al dente with a little olive oil and some
crumbled Stilton cheese.  Nice.

Anyone here have the Sci-Fi Channel and is planning on
watching the new BG?

I'd gladly swap MTV and the shopping channels for the
Sci-Fi Channel.  I am glad we're getting Bravo on analog
cable.

She probably entered the order at an older age and with purer motives than
I did.  I entered at age 14 to seek a life different from what was on offer

That was the week when your .sig line was
"Doing my part to keep Austin weird".

When asked what, specifically, you were
doing to keep Austin weird, you said you
were wearing green socks.  Or maybe striped.

Yeah, I think it was striped.

Sorry.

Anyway, so I bought green ketchup.

- D.M., on asparagus and my gag reflex:
> No matter how it's prepared?

Yep.  A galpal once went to all sorts of
trouble to make me a really nice dinner,
getting all the kinds of things I have a
major jones on for, and, well, she knew
I felt very strongly about asparagus,
and she remembered wrong.

I tried to nibble some of the tender ends
while it was still raw, but even then, with
all those circumstances yelling RICHARD YOU
MUST EAT SOME ASPARAGUS, it was no go.

> I know people who will only eat it if it
>is cooked til it's soft and gray.

That's how my mother cooked all vegetables
(the woman's one fault is she's a bad cook),
so I assumed I'd outgrow the asparagus thing
like I outgrew broccoli and cabbage and all
that, once I ate them properly cooked.

Nope.

Me and asparagus just doesn't work.

I can't think of anything else, offhand,
that's like asparagus.

Richard, gagging

We got about 6-7" before lunch. I had no idea a nor'easter was
headed our way. I must've missed the pre-storm hype - it took
me by surprise this morning. The morning commute was horrible.
Luckily part two of the storm's scheduled for tomorrow.

Not at all interesting to me, just a problem.:(

I don't think it much matters, frankly. I grew up relatively poor (8
kids), and was poor in grad school, and about half the time I was an
academic. But I never expected to be so poor at this time of my life,
and to have my prospects so grim. No part of my growing up prepared me
for this.

LOL. I guess I'm doing well, then.

Hey, bonnie, have you seen -Limbo: Blue-Collar Roots, White-Collar Dreams-.
The author's on the staff of the Fluffya Inquirer and it got lots of press
here.
I haven't seen or read the book but the blurbs reminded me of bonnie's
posts of growing up in Wisconsin etc. ( Hope I'm not misrepresenting
Bonnie here.)

But how did Richard find out about the staining
properties of green ketchup?  I mean, if he bought it
merely to assist Ms. K in saving Austin (which,
apparently, she did), to what further use did he put
it to become verdantly stained?

But in the sucky South, black applicants are
assiduously cultivated, and aggressively work their
way through the degrees.  How long this had been true,
I do not know.  But it is certainly true now.

Sounds very interesting.  I'll have to look for it.  I definitely have blue
collar roots.  My parents weren't as poor as Clo's.  In fact, we weren't
really poor at all.  We owned a house, had enough to eat, went on a yearly
driving vacation on the weeks that the Kohler Plumbing Company closed down
so that its workers could have time off, etc.  But the attitudes and
aspirations around me never included things like college or improving one's
mind through reading.

The situation here is is still a bit confused, but now they are saying that
we definitely will get snow starting sometime tomorrow---perhaps 12-18
inches by the end of Sunday.  Ho, ho, ho.

My statement above might be misleading.  I don't know if the freemasons
didn't allow Catholics to join or not.  I do know that the Catholic Church
didn't allow its members to join the freemasons.

        We have a jug of Hulk Hersey's Syrup.  It makes the most

It's very bad for people that have gout.  Just tell

I'm back in action.  You'll get a little spurt of old mail from me in a
minute.  Probably I won't be able to catch up and get ahead now since I
have lots of other e-stuff to get done.

End of story (which you'll get the beginning of later):  I got so
frustrated by my dead phone line that I finally went to the office and
called BellSouth from there.  Got a nice person after the long wait, who
told me to unplug DSL modem and wait a minute, then test a phone for a
dial tone, then, if that didn't work, unplug answering machine, test a
different phone, then, if that didn't work, unplug each phone in the
house, testing from a different phone.  None of that worked.  I was
feeling down, down, down, and more and more pissed off.  But then
suddenly I tried pushing the off button on the surge protector and then
turning it back on.  And everything was ok again.

I plan to send e-mail to BellSouth complimenting the nice woman on the
phone tonight.  I don't know her name, but maybe if I give the
approximate time of the call, that will help.  What I liked about her
was that when she first answered and said "How can I help you?" I said
something like, "You can help me majorly if you make my phone work
again.  I'm in charge of a banquet for 130 or so people and have got to
have e-mail access."  Anyway, we then went through that rather long
rigamarole of what all I should try (after she tested my line and said
that the problem was inside my house).  And when I thanked her for her
help, she said, "Good luck with the banquet."  I was impressed that she
remembered the banquet thing.  It was not as if I had gone on and on
about it.  It was a quick introductory comment.  She was good folk.

And you pronounce it with [I]?  I pronounce it with [i].  I'm not sure
why -- my study of Latin was '59-'61.  And I don't say the Latin sic
very often.  I'm much more likely to say sic as in "I'm gonna sic my

But how many Wordslers will you see in Alaska?  Dusty Deal has

I remember studying about Grange in American history -- it's political
clout or whatever, but I also have it stuck in my head that Grange is
like an adult form of 4-H clubs.  (Note that I am saying that's stuck in
*my* head -- I am not claiming any accuracy.  I know basically nothing
about 4-H except that it involves farmers  -- or future farmers.  And I
have Grange stuck in my mind as also involving farmers.)

Probably to his usual noon position between the cafeteria and the
bakery.  I can't remember whether I saw him there when I went to lunch
around 11:30.  I saw him in a somewhat different place when I was
leaving campus later -- but far away from the webcam.  He was between
the Psych bldg and the PR offices.  Early this morning -- or maybe it
was yesterday -- I think it was yesterday, I saw him stalking squirrels.
  But he would not move in for the kill.  The campus squirrels aren't
very scared of anything and thus would be easy targets.  They ignored
him.  He would get into a sort of pointing position, then creep closer,
then stop several yards away and stare.  Then when the squirrel would
decide to go on up a tree (casually -- no fear of TWD), he would run up
to the tree and pretend to have treed the squirrel.  It was hilarious.

I have no phone line -- as in it's totally dead.  I thought maybe it was
some kind of DSL downage, so hopped into answering some of the
downloaded mail a little while ago, using "send later" with the
intention of then using my dial-up backup.  But that didn't work either.
  The modem found no dial tone.  I then picked up the telephone receiver
myself and, like the modem, I found no dial tone.

I had pulled the cell phone out of the drawer just this morning and
charged it when I started thinking about how I should take it to Jackson
tomorrow so that I could dial 911 when being attacked in the wicked city
that my hometown has become.  So I just tried calling Bell South repair,
but I was of course on hold for ages and was watching all of my Tracfone
minutes evaporate.  So I hung up.  I'll go on through the mail that I
had downloaded early this afternoon, using "send later," and will send
them whenever I next have a dial tone.  This is very bad timing since
ARF-banquet matters are at a critical stage, and I need to be able to
get/send e-mail.  I guess I'll go to my office Sunday and use my clunky
computer there if I still have no phone service here.

I would assume in a case like that that the point would be to emphasize

be <critical>.

In my current e-confusion, I seem to be coming in on the middle of
something -- as in I didn't see the "rich bitch" reference that is now
being discussed.  Are you saying, Clo, that that is a <saying> or an
<attitude>?  There are of course rich bitches in the world, just as
there are of course poor bitches and middle-income bitches.  But somehow
I'm getting the impression that you think rich and bitch <go together>.

Certainly my RRB and I had <different parents/environments> in our
attitudes toward pretty much everything.  But I'm not sure that it has
anything to do with letting life experience flow or analyzing life
experience.

I've always wondered why fraternities and sororities, at least here,
seem to be all black or all white.  I don't know whether there are no
opposite-race members in any of the fraternities or sororities, but they
are few if they do exist.  I know that nationally fraternities and
sororities are all supposedly <inclusive>, but I wonder how much
integration there really is.  I think I told before the story of going
to my sorority's national office in Memphis with some of my old college
friends not many years ago -- March before the April I left for Japan.
Five or six of us had gotten together at a friend's house in Memphis.
She was the only one of us still into sorority stuff, but we found the
visit to the ChiO national headquarters fun in various ways -- like the
pictures we took there that I showed to my serious Aged Owl friend here,
the friend I had enjoyed grossing out through the years by putting my
ChiO pin on Bernard's doggy shirt, etc.  Anyway, I remember that my
friend Fay, who teaches at Northwestern, and I, the two of us most
blatantly anti-discrimination (though all the others other than our
hostess were also with us in this respect and even our hostess was ok
about it -- she, btw, was the first "snob" I'd ever met), questioned the
honcho who was showing us around the headquarters about race.  She
assured us that there were black ChiOs.  I am skeptical, however, unless
they've changed some of the ritual, which included "a gentlewoman of the
white race."

Cite of what?  I didn't think they were clippings.  Mic is a clipping of
microphone, which is why I didn't understand your point about sic and tic.

I resigned from my national sorority after one year in order to protest
national segregationist policies. (I was a jr then, for I pledged as a
sophomore.)

Either fresh or canned?  They are among those vegetables that taste (to
me) quite different depending upon whether they're fresh or canned (or
frozen in the case of some vegetables, but I don't think I've ever
encountered frozen asparagus).  I prefer fresh asparagus but don't mind
canned.  It's just a different experience.  But with English peas I
detest fresh (or frozen) but love canned.

You resigned from your "national sorority"?  What does that mean?  I
mean wouldn't you resign locally from your local sorority, with its
national affiliation?  Why did you pledge as a sophomore?  Didn't people
commit suicide or at least drop out of school if they didn't get bids as
freshmen?  (As I think I've said before, I found the fraternity/sorority
thing <unappealing> even at the time, but in my day it was still assumed
as <normal>, as in it was what all <normal> people did, just as it had
been in my parents' college years.  My parents would have thought it
weird beyond words if I hadn't joined a sorority, even thought they in
no way expected my brother to join my father's fraternity or me to join
my mother's sorority.  And neither of us did.)

That fits better with what I heard as a kid. My uncle was Catholic
and lived a couple of blocks from a Knights of Columbus meeting hall.

???  I have no idea what your point is.  You brought pronunciation into
a spelling discussion and then seemed to veer back into spelling, and
then who knows.  You lost me a long time ago.  I will say again that I
have never heard the pronunciation [mIk] for the clipped form of
microphone but that I think of the spelling "mic" for it as normal since
I don't see where a k would come from.  Is there a name for the opposite
of a spelling-pronunciation?

I think you have conflated some things. FFA - Future Farmers of America
 - (and the distaff FHA, Future Homemakers of America) were organizations
you could join in high school. Think of it as Rural ROTC.

4-H is part of Cooperative Extension, a piece of the mission of land-grant
colleges. 4-Hers learn crafts, sort of like scouting badge projects, but
also have the chance to raise animals. Think County Fair exhibits.

Grange has a youth arm too, called Junior Grange. Junior Grange members
may do some of the same things as 4-H, but not as the main focus. They
have meetings and learn leadership training as well as farm- and home-skills.
It's Junior Grange that selects the Dairy Prince and Princess you may have
seen at the State Fair.

These are all rural-life related activities for young people, so it's easy
to see why you wouldn't be able to tell the difference.

You are indeed confused. I made yet another humorous side-reference to a
phrase in Doris's post. It was she who said something like - here are
examples of treatment of other people based on class which I <did not>
witness as a child.

I responded that I was happy to hear she hadn't been exposed to such
rough language. (and of course, neither was I when young)

It means I resigned my membership in the national organization, not just
the local chapter. It created quite a stir. They wanted my pin back.
I did not give it to them.

>Why did you pledge as a sophomore?

I had no interest in sororities as a freshman. I did not seek a bid.

Nobody I knew did either of those things.

You are probably too young to either remember or understand, Natalie.
Apparently the earliest known citation for the spelling /mic/ is 1961 -
some of us learned our language long before 1961.

Are you saying that pronunciation is dependent on spelling?  Has there ever
been a time in post-Norman Conquest history when English speakers used
spelling as a guide to pronunciation (Noah Webster's reforms aside)?  Talk
about history and context!

Wow! We didn't own a house till I was in high school. We seldom went
on vacations as a family--just to Canada. But we took turns going on
trips with my dad.

Oh. Well, it was assumed that we would pay for our own college--but we
all read. My Mom stopped going to PTA meetings because all they talked
about was how to get their kids to read, and my Mom wanted to know how
to get them to stop reading...

Yep. Not just personal cleanliness, but house cleanliness, too. I was
lucky because I have room to stockpile things--I think I'm still
working on the first package of paper towels I bought over two years
ago. Ditto for handcream. I recently had to buy contact lens solution
for the first time. I replaced the vinegar and ammonia I bought two
years ago, too.

But I need a lot of things--underwear, for example. And shoes. Those
are more expensive.

I don't see how one would be a member of the national organization
without being a member of a local chapter.  Those two things went
together in my sorority -- as in we paid dues locally only (though part
of that money no doubt was sent to the national office).  Re the pin,
I've heard of people having their "pin jerked" -- meaning they did
something horrible and were kicked out.  And I've heard of people
"turning in" their pin -- as in choosing to drop out.  In fact, I don't
think I've ever heard of quitting or being kicked out of a fraternity or
sorority with language that didn't involve pins -- pins being jerked or
turning in one's pin.  What did you do with your pin?  Do you still have
it?

Why did you become interested?  The dislike of the concept that I had
even as a freshman grew stronger with the years, not weaker.

Actually, I didn't know anybody personally who committed suicide, but I
did know of some cases of people dropping out of school.  That happened
quite often at Ole Miss.  They would ultimately get a degree somewhere
-- transferring to a school that didn't have fraternities/sororities
usually.

I know about Cooperative Extension since I know people who work in it.
They are sort of hybrid employees -- part state, part federal.  And I
know that MSU hosts 4-H meetings in the summer because I see signs
welcoming 4-H people and giving directions to where they are to gather.
  I also have heard the term Future Farmers of America.  Wouldn't the
FFA and the 4-H attract basically the same group of people?  Like were
rural children likely to be in both?

I've never heard of a Dairy Prince and Princess, though I remember
seeing cows at the Fair.  The main thing I did at the Fair was ride
rides.  Loved it.

It is <timely> that we're talking about The Fair since I am setting out
from here in about an hour to point my car's nose toward the fairgrounds
in Jackson.  The building where the crafts fair is held is near there.

It is quite likely that I never had occasion to write "mic" before '61
and is conceivable that I didn't have occasion to see it written.  I am
much more likely to use full forms in writing -- e.g., I would be much
more likely to write "microphone."  But I still get the feeling that at
times you are talking about speech -- things like "learned our
language."  As I've said before, I've never heard anybody pronounce mic
as [mIk].  It's always [maIk] in my world.

Yes.  I'd say that the majority of English speakers these days, at least
in the US, put [h] at the beginning of "humble" -- that those of us who
don't are <old and fading>.  And there are some people who put [l] in
"salmon."  The list could go on and on.  (Wasn't it post NC that the th
in names like Katherine and Anthony changed from [t] in much of the
English-speaking world?)

You will be happy to know that I can't even remember when I last had
occasion to say the Latin "sic" -- if, in fact, I ever have.  It's not
something that makes its way into conversation easily.

This (Stevenson's response at the end) is something that alas is true
and that has worried me about Dean from the beginning:

******************************************
Don't get me wrong. I agree with Mr. Dean on many issues, and I admire
his willingness to oppose our Iraq invasion from the beginning. But
shiny-eyed teenagers who distribute leaflets for him in places like
Yamhill County are going to get very cold stares — and end up heartbroken.

If the Democrats are serious about governing, they should remember the
words of one of their nominees, Adlai Stevenson. After one of his
typically brilliant campaign speeches, someone shouted out to Stevenson
from the crowd that he had the votes of all thinking Americans.

Stevenson shouted back, saying that wasn't enough: "I need a majority!"
*********************************************

But now I must turn off the computer and get organized to leave for Jackson.

I also pronounce "sic" with and [i], and "Cicero" with [k]s to boot -
the remnants of my high school Latin teacher's influence. No "church"

Not at all. Many urban/suburban children or "townies", kids with no ties
to farms join 4-H, raise a rabbit or a lamb, and enjoy the activities.

The FFA boys were either going on to land grants like Cornell or to local
Community Colleges to learn animal hubandry, farm management, and the like,
or going directly back to the family farm after hs to start learning the
ropes from Dad or Uncle.

Enjoy the trip! I am babysitting my 6mo old niece while her Mom tries to
sell goatsmilk soap at a crafts fair this am. My youngest sister is the
only one of us who returned to rural roots - I drink her goats' milk, eat
her eggs, cheese, and meat (pork and chicken), use her soap and admire her
homeschooling prowess.

My other sibs are all engineers or programmers by training; I'm the only
other one who went in for <liberal arts>.

We have nothing yet but a bit of wind.  But here's the technical discussion:

models in fairly good agreement with strong nor'easter to
effect all of Maine the next 36 hours with heavy snow and strong winds. Low
pressure off Cape Cod will slowly move south of the Gulf of Maine the
next 48 hours. Strong middle level frontogenesis forecasted to move from
central and northern New Hampshire this evening and then across central and
downeast Maine tonight. This feature will help produce significant snowfall
rates across most of downeast and central Maine tonight into early Sunday.
Also the left front quadrant of the polar jet will move right across
downeast Maine tonight which should enhance snowfall rates and the slow
movement of the storm across the Gulf of Maine will allow for an extended
period of snowfall. The combination of all these factors indicate snowfall
amounts across central and downeast Maine to approach 2 feet by Sunday
night. With a strong northeast wind gradient produce by the deepening low
pressure in the Gulf and the strong high centered to our north...blizzard
conditions still looks good and have decided to extend Blizzard Warning into
central zones also.

My parents were aged 41 and 42 when I was born.  I don't know that they
went on vacations when their first three kids were little.  But, by the
time I was seven or eight, the other three kids were grown and on their
own.  They would take me on driving vacations out West.  I saw the Grand
Canyon and the Tetons and Yellowstone and the Seattle World's Fair and once
we went all the way to San Diego, where an uncle lived.

I read too.  There was a public library.  The only things around the house
were Modern Romance and Reader's Digest.  I remember my mother often saying
"put that book down and get outside to play".

Please pay attention. I claimed its usage in East Tennessee is 8-10 years

Yuck.  I'm not ready for this.  Usually we have two or three small storms
to get us in the mood before we take a direct hit from a winter hurricane.

I'm sure it won't be straight down here.  There will be little point in
shoveling until it stops blowing around a bit.  But I'd like to get it
shoveled before it warms up on Monday and gets to be a heavy snow.

Social networks - new friends.

As I recall, our sororities and fraternities went national about the time
I entered collge. Lamar had been a 4-year school for only a short time
before I entered. That probably had something to do with it.

Before I entered college, I know almost nothing about such organizations.
Remember - I was the first person in my family to go to college. There
were family NO college traditions.

Also, remember that we are talking about the period 1955-1959 - Brown v.
Bd. of Education, integration. I worked on the school newspaper, and for a
while I had to work my way through segregationist picket lines to get to
my office on campus at night. They would search my car sometimes. I
suppose they feared that I was smuggling in Africa-American students!

LOL. Few individuals I knew could have afforded to switch schools - we
were homies.

In some ways it embarrasses me that I joined one - and I wasted a heck of
a lot of money (all of which I was earning as a Weingarten's emplopyee -
does Weingarten's still exist?) - but the process of joining, serving as
an officer for a year,and then unjoining taught me a lot about social
organizations generally - it would have been difficult for me to have
leanred the same things elsewhere. My previous organizations were Girl
Scouts and Camp Fire Girls. I was never going to be eligible for
Junior League .... so perhaps the tuition was not that expensive.

We're right in the thick of it. Snow's coming down steadily without

I'm glad it's a 1-2 punch. Yesterday's early morning shovelling stint

I have a memory that it was the church that did not allow them to join. The
masons weren't keeping them out.  However, my memory often fails me. It
seemed that my church was opposed to the "secretive" parts of these
organizations.

My parents were in their 30's when I was born, so that's a difference.
I'm sure my younger sibs don't remember when we didn't own a house.

What does this have to do with learning your language before 1961,
then?

What are the requirements for membership
in Junior League?  What is Junior League
anyway?  The only thing I know about them
is that they put out terrific cookbooks.

Actually, it is a conclusion - not an impression - reached on the basis
of reading local publications, student papers, graffiti, billboards,
posters, etc. daily for many years.

See last post.

And I am now quite bored with this. Perhaps I shall practice fierce

Yes, we've all agreed on that piece... but I think it's an open question
 whether they would have been allowed to join had they chosen to. The
election process is by secret ballot - little balls dropped into a screened
box - and one black ball is enough to block an applicant from entry.
Even without official rules excluding <certain people>, they tended to be
slow to let in members who weren't <congenial>. And of course, with secret
ballot the reason doesn't have to be defended or even articulated.

I've checked, by the bye, w/ my expert source; Dad says that "in our
jurisdiction" eg NYState and perhaps a regional group above the state,
there have never been formal discriminatory rules. Any person of any
religion is specifically eligible etc. He thinks that in some Southern
Grand (state level) lodges there <may> have been formal restrictions
before the '70s. He also indicated he doesn't know of any reason why
being Jewish would have kept someone out of a lodge (which iirc was
the original question).

Based on my experience in Knoxville, rich white parents, preferably
parents who belong to Cherokee Country Club. It appears to be a female
junior country club - for young women who "come out" (in the old sense of
that term).

The explanation given to me as a child was that the vows taken during
initiation specifically exclude disclosing anything that takes place in
a lodge meeting to any nonmember; and that this interferes with the
confessional relationship between priest and parishioner. Presumably the
vows of KoC were adjusted to permit this interaction.

believe in God.  The church isn't even a Catholic church.  I sent her half
of the mittens I knitted with Alyce's yarn to hang on the mitten tree at
the church where she plays organ.  She is Polish.  She never married or had
kids.

Also, my grandparents gave my parents the land on which they had our house
built, some years before I was born, I think.  My grandparents on both
sides owned dairy farms.  My mother's parents gave a half acre of land on
three corners of their farm to three of their children.  All of that land
has now been built up with homes and is probably part of the city of
Sheboygan.  When I was growing up much of it was still fields, but no
longer owned by my grandparents.  That grandfather died before I was born
and that grandmother died when I was three.

My paternal grandfather was a dairy farmer in Michigan for a while--my
Dad grew up on the farm. They must have sold it at some point, because
they were living in the city when I knew them.

Well, that was my question.  I don't know where I got the idea

Life is hard.  Lorinda, Kevin, and Ryan are all going to fly to the Insite
Bowl Christmas Day. They put together a package for the three of them much
cheaper than what was being offered by university.  Go, Bears!

In the central part of Norway - from some hundred miles south of the Polar circle to somewhere north of it we had weather on Thursday. A plane was hit by lightening and managed a crash landing where all survived in Bodø. This of course meant that the airport in Bodø closed down. The storm was also strong enough so that the daily ship (Hurtigruta) could not enter the harbour in Bodø. Further south, in Mo i Rana where I was at least one roof blew off a building. On Friday when I was supposed to fly south from Rana, there were no planes arriving: partly because the airport in Rana was closed at times and mainly because the airport in Bodø (from where the planes would be coming) was closed because of storm and a heavy snowfall. The snow fell pretty heavu in Rana as well. I noticed that already on Thursday they had set out the marking poles to show where the road is when snow is removed. After four hours at the airport yesterday it was clear for everyone that there would be no planes -
 at least n o planes working with connections from Trondheim to Oslo. So we changed over to a sleeping cabin in the train. Good idea - it turned out that at the same time a bus going on the same road we would avce been taking if we had tried to go south by bus, was blown off the road. So this morning at half past six I goty up and brushed my teeth and then we stopped at the Trondheim airport (which is a train stop before Trondheim for trains coming from the North). We got on a plane from Trondheim to Oslo, no problem. Instead the storm has reappeared in the South so that the trains between Trondheim and Oslo - amon many others - have been cancelled all day. But in Oslo we had a beautiful cold but sunny winter's day ...

Now I will try to treat the cold I got from the sleet I walked through in Rana last Wednesday with a lot of red wine and try to get some sleep. Weather!

Thanks for reminding me why I prefer warmer climes! I hope you feel
better, Espen. It's only a short while to the solstice, and then the
days will start getting longer again.

That same storm system left nothing here.  Not even slippery
roads (which is good because I don't have any weight in the
bed of my pickup yet).

I'm feeling as peckish as Natalie about the short days.  Ana
and I drive to school at dawn and arrive home at dusk.  We
enjoy the sunrises and sunsets together, but it is dreary to
have no "daytime" outside of school.


We have a Christmas party to go to tonight.  We have a hotel
room where the party will be held, and Ana is sleeping over
Kelsey's house, so she'll just go to Sunday School with
Kelsey and we'll get her from Church tomorrow.  I managed to
find myself an outfit to wear last night fairly easily.  I
think working in a high school has paid off in giving me a
better understanding of clothing trends.  I even found these
cellulite-smoothing undies things that will supposedly hold
my butt in.  We'll see.  In the meantime, I think I'll have
another chocolate-covered cherry.

Oh, I thought I would mention that Larry is eating his lunch over the

It's up here, but right now, according to the radar, MDI is in a trough
between two arms of the storm.  Fairly windy (28 mph, 37kph) and cool (28F,
-2C)--about the warmest it's been today.  A few flurries earlier.  Two of
the people in our neighborhood have been testing their snowblowers this
afternoon.  One of them sounds like a nukular (sic) mic with a tic.

That sounds wonderful Rashmi.  I wish we were at that stage here.  All we
have is wind and dread.  The headline in the Portland paper this morning
was "A Wicked Thing This Way Comes", printed over a picture of the snow in
Maryland.

Actually, I think I'm going to have to get out and shovel fallen breadfruit off the
roof of the carport this afternoon. A couple of Tongan and Samoan fellows
usually come around and pick these things before they become too big a
nuisance. Not so this season. They're a mess.

First and foremost, you have to believe you are a snob

Hi Betty...  'went to Yawgoo for an hour or so thisaft'...  the snow was
heavy and slow, visibility poor (goggling), and the open trails crowded and
few...  So I went and had a few double neat Cuervos on the patio overlooking
the training hill.  I teach Tuesdays, Thursdays, Fridays, and a full
Saturday this season.  They up'd the ante for hill-perks.  I'm there ;-)

Back atcha.  We're on our way to watch the women's BB game and do some

Yes, in my dreams they're fried in lard,
but the JazzFest potato po' boys that I'm

I had thrown away this link, but maybe I'll post it anyway:

Mike, Dammit (sic)
http://home.comcast.net/~sambayer/music/whymike.html

Wherein a linguistics PhD argues that "mic" sux.

One his correspondents makes the point that the abbreviation probably
happened with folks who make and use audio gear, who end up with "Mic/Line"
labels on panels.

Also, by the by, I just realized I know an "ic" word with an interesting
pronunciation.  DIC Entertainment produces children's cartoons, and the
name is pronounced "deek."

Twenty-five million children watch DIC toons each week that end with the
DIC logo and a child's voice saying "deek!"

DIC was founded in 1971 in Paris, if that tells you anything about how the
name came to be.

I think we have between 6 and 8 inches now. It's supposed to come down
heavily tonight, but I think overall we'll get less than they thought.
Sometimes the Connecticut River valley has a weird effect on storms.

Whatever, I ain't leaving the house. Today I vacuumed the chateau, and
polished the silver set along with some of my grandparents' silver napkin
rings I found in a bag in my closet.

I had an underwhelming tuna steak for dinner. Ho hum, at least it's a change
from salmon. I cooked it on the Foreman grill and made a little sauce for it
out of mustard and soy sauce. With it I had green beans with slivered
almonds.

Just stumbled upon a computer in the motel lobby.  Took a picture today of my
old teacher sitting in a police car.  Hope it turns out.  Before that the
camera had been hit hard by flying parade candy and had immediately turned
itself off and said "charge batteries."  More tomorrow.  Poor Spencer.  All
alone tonight.

It has begun to snow in earnest here; they have reduced the forecast amount
to about 15 inches---apparently, it may warm enough tomorrow to begin
raining.  We were to meet our friends from the Hearthside tonight for
dinner.  The first place was booked for a party; the second place, when we
showed up, was also booked for a party.  So after a quick return home over
rather greasy streets, we settled on a third place.  Good calamari,
absolutely great ahi tuna, flash-seared.  Good conversation, and Bonnie got
to have her favorite dessert, which she must describe.

A couple of inches now, still a lot of wind.  The village streets were very
pretty with the yellowish street lamps shining through the falling/blowing
snow.

According to my teacher, who was abt 75, 4'9", and bounced as she clapped
her hands and chanted "amicitia, amicitiae," etc, classical latin used /k/
for the letter "c" in all locations, and later "vulgar" latin, including
that of the medieval church, shifted to another rule that matched - French,
perhaps? I have long since learned that nobody else living probably ever
heard this tale; but I continue to use her rules, just as I play by my Dad's
pinochle rules, even though I know that what he disparagingly called
Grandmother Walter's rules" are actually the ones Hoyle prefers too.

Well, I know what, then.  When I was a kid I was a
picky eater like Phil (almost), and if I hated things,
I told people I was allergic.  This would enable you
to maintain your boozing image. And never, NEVER, turn
down free booze.

What was the charge against her?

Spencer is probably having TWD over for fillet of
Eukanuba.

I'm glad you feel this way about preserving
traditions, even rather eccentric ones.

My Latin teacher was rather the antithesis of yours.
Verna Muller was big, broad, and not very enthusiastic
regarding any language.  She informed me early on that
I would fail in the study of any language.  Indeed, I
was a failure in her classes.  But I learned to love
French and Spanish.  And there is not a day that
passes that I don't thank the Fates that I DID get a
firm grounding in Latin, despite ol' Verna.

Anyone catch -Bad Santa- yet? It's directed by the guy who made
Crumb and Ghost World. I enjoyed it, though I ordinarily can't stand
Billy Bob Thornton. Don't take the kids, it's not a sweet, sappy
Christmas flick though some redemption-type stuff creeps in at
the very end. Until then there's profanity and booze and rudeness
and lotsa gross-out humor. Terry Zwigoff is da man.

Chinese would have been so much better! :-)

We didn't make the ballet or our scheduled dinner with Adam.  We have close
to a foot of snow and it's snowing and blowing.

At some point today, every Wild family member had on snow pants and snow
boots.

The flock of wild turkeys were back at a rousing 22.  They initally showed
up Sunday 1 hour before I put a farm raised cousin in the oven.  I thought
they were protesting.

I don't think I've heard the hard c as a vulgate thing, but I
definitely learned both pronunciations. So while I'm not surprised by
your pronunciation, I do still find it repulsive. (But I heard Church
Latin every day for years and years.)

The young 'uns might have been tender enough, but I really didn't want to
pluck a turkey in below freezing weather, thankyouverymuch.

No Toms, looked like the hens and their broods from this year.

I snapped a couple of pictures, but not with the digital, so we'll have to
wait.  It was quite the site with the snow today.

I had an awful Latin teacher. Too bad. If she had been a little less
bad, I would have had 3 years of hs Latin. I dropped out after one
semester. When I went to the office to  drop the course, I was informed
that I could not drop the course mid-year. "No problem, " I said [well, I
probably actually said something else], "I'll just fail the second half
so I can't take second year." They let me drop.

She use to arrive in sweater/coat in the winter and have all the windows
opened. The rest of us sat shivering through class.

I regret not learning Latin well. I assumed I would study it in college -
but Lamar did not offer it. Maybe I'll get back to it eventually.

I remember that the first reading passage was about Italia being a
peninsula.

For the List's info, John is wrong in talking about sheep herds. They are
flocks.

OK, so jaybe [sic] we should have the word shepflock rather than shepherd,
but that's a quirk of the Engl. language.

Shepherds in the fields, keeping watch over their flocks by night. And
suddenly........

Mrs. Comstock was lovely; and luckily I also had a terrific French teacher
before I left S.Ot. - M. Gary endured endless teasing gracefully and
because he was truly bilingual was able to convey the notion that you can
really live in other languages and worlds, something a lot of American
FL teachers can't manage to put across convincingly. The Spanish teacher
@Weedsport was a terrific example of a poor FL teacher.

It sure is still snowing and blowing. Yesterday I shoveled 3 to 6" three
times, and this morning there was no trace of that path. Shoveled another
12 to 18" out to the car, then decided to walk for the paper rather than
shovel the plow berm. Nice walk, but no papers to be had.

Whew!
Althoough V came in and said "I love winter!" after shoveling the first 1"
yesterday, I feel pretty certain this would have taxed even his tolerance.
Thanks, coastal wordslers, for taking it on the weather chin for the rest of us!

Sister Lucinda was wonderful.  But I hated Latin (all languages) and didn't
do well my second year.  When Sister Lucinda taught me Chemistry the
following year, she voiced the opinion that she should have pushed me
harder during second year Latin, given that I was quite intelligent after all.

It's difficult to tell how many inches of snow we got overnight.  Much of
it is stuck to the sides of the houses, due to the wind.  Some kind soul
did remove the snowplow ridge at the end of our driveway.  It must have
been Dave when he came to plow Grandma and Grandpa Parsons' driveway.  We
had a bit of a scare this morning.  Just as we started the coffee maker,
turned up the furnace, and turned on our computers, the power went
off.  But only for about two minutes.  Please hang in there Bangor
Power!!  It's NFL Sunday!!!!

According to what is on the deck railing, we got maybe 6-8 inches; the
forecast still is muttering about more.  I can't tell if the stuff in the
air is new or just wind-blown snow---probably a mix.  The street is nicely
plowed and sanded already.

Interesting morning.  Got up late (nothing to do today but shovel snow, and
the snow certainly will wait for us), cranked up the thermostat, turned on
the computer, and started the coffeemaker.  Xerxes (the big dummy) asked to
go out.  I opened the back door about 2 inches---all I could manage against
the drift there; he looked, sniffed, and dived back into bed with
Bonnie.  Then, having poured myself a V-8 (fortified with a little chipotle
sauce), I came in here to toggle the modem, just in time for the computer
and everything else electrical stop.  As I was resigning myself to
shoveling some first, then making coffee on the stove, the power came
back.  Another cuppa and I'll be ready to face the windchill.

There is a crow sitting in the ash tree right outside my window.  He is
fluffed up to about twice his normal size---sort of ragged, looking a bit
more like a raven than a crow.  He does not look happy as he contemplates
the bird-feeder next door which appears to be snow-clogged.

I took Latin in college because I didn't have it
in HS.  My teacher was Miss Dimmitt, a gracious
spinster, former Dean of Women, well-travelled
and much liked.  She taught small classes in her
home, in front of the fireplace, with tea.  Very
memorable . . the fire, the tea . . but all I
remember of Latin is that all Gaul was divided
into three parts.

Indeed.  Once upon a time I scalded and plucked a lot of ducks outside in

I remember that and I remember the declension of "you":  tu, tui, tibi, te,
te.  I also remember something about Hannibal and elephants coming over a

We saw Jimmy on the CBS early morning show Sat. AM.
He has to be one of the most likable and astute chefs
in NYC.  He was down-to-earth and perfectly charming.
You do good work!

bonniev, I am looking forward to your description of
your "favorite" dessert.  This would be a pleasing and
comfortable time to tell us about it, as you watch the
swirling snow from your snug computer cranny.

Does Clyde know where I might find some rice flour,
and how it differs from wheat flour?

>I thought you, at least bonnie, loved winter and the snow??

I do love winter and I do love snow.  But sometimes, I admit, it's a
pain.  In the end, the pain is worth it.  We are now shoveled out with the
help of Tim who had Grandpa Parsons' snow blower.  Tim did most of the
driveway for us.  I shoveled the front walk and I shoveled a path in the
deep snow on the deck.  We can now get out the back door.  I also drove to
town for the Sunday newspapers which made it up here from Portland and
Boston by 11:00 a.m.   Frenchman Bay is churning in the wind.  Lots of
whitecaps.  And the Porcupine Islands are beautiful in their snow
cover.  Mount Cadillac also looks quite snowy this morning.  Yes, it's
worth it.

It is called lava cake.  It is a small dense chocolate cake, shaped like a
miniature bundt cake.  In the center is molten chocolate syrup.  Oh
god.  Yum.  The very best dessert I ever ate, though, was a butterscotch
pie with hazelnut crust.

He has just finished making our breakfast.  I'm sure he will be with you
shortly.

I know you are happy there and it is indeed beautiful.  Sometimes when
people retire to different states it doesn't always work out.

It has less protein than does wheat flour, probably less gluten as well.  I
use rice flour to dust things like ravioli and gnocchi so that they don't
stick to each other or the surface.  It sometimes is used as an additive to
reduce the protein content of wheat flour.  The stuff I use is ground very
fine--almost like arrowroot powder.

As Pete suggested, most Asian markets should have it.  I buy mine at a
store that features organic foods, vitamin and nutritional supplements, etc.

The flying candy didn't kill my camera.  And Miss Breland's face is at
least somewhat visible in the police car, something I had feared might
not be the case, unrelated to the flying candy.

Thank you.  It is an ingredient in an old recipe I
have not tried yet - "Maid of Honor" tarts".  My crazy
Welsh grandmother used to bake them.  I have been
unsuccessful in locating any yet (rice flour), but I
may go to Anniston one day next week.  There is a
wider range of shopping options there.

I'm not Clyde, nor do I play him on TV, but the main difference between
rice flour and wheat flour is that the former is milled from rice, while
the latter is milled from wheat.

Bob's Red Mill (http://www.bobsredmill.com) has pretty much everything that
anyone might ever want to put into bread.  In addition to their online
store, most of the gourmet stores in my neck of the woods carry many of
their products; your neck may vary.

Beyond rooting for the power to stay on and the satellite dish to continue
to receive, I'm not sure he roots for any particular team.  He watches all

Specialty foods are susceptible to online shopping.

Here are some stores which have rice flour (use their search functions):

http://www.shopnatural.com/
http://www.pacificrim-gourmet.com/
http://www.namaste.com/
http://www.bakerscatalogue.com/
http://www.mexgrocer.com/
http://www.americanspice.com/
http://www.asiafoods.com/ (currently has database error)

And comparison shopping services:

Thank you, Boo!  The Publix chain carries this, there
are four Publix groceries in B'ham, and I even know
how to get to one of them.  IMFTATL appears to be
quick, efficient, and fun.

If this works out, maybe someday I'll send you a maid
of honor.  (There's your opening.)

At an airport, I overheard a father and his daughter in their last moments
together. They had announced her plane's departure and standing near the
door she said, "Daddy, our life together has been more than enough. Your
love is all I ever needed. I wish you enough too, Daddy."

They kissed good-bye and she left. He walked over towards the window where I
was seated. Standing there I could see he wanted and needed to cry. I tried
not to intrude on his privacy, but he welcomed me in by asking,  "Did you
ever say good-bye to someone knowing it would be forever?"

"Yes, I have," I replied. Saying that brought back memories I had of
expressing my love and appreciation for all my Dad had done for me.
Recognizing that his days were limited, I took the time to tell him face to
face how much he meant to me. So I knew what this man was experiencing.

"Forgive me for asking, but why is this a forever good-bye?" I asked.
"I am old and she lives much too far away. I have challenges ahead and the
reality is, her next trip back will be for my funeral," he said.

"When you were saying good-bye I heard you say, 'I wish you enough, may I
ask what that means?"

He began to smile. "That's a wish that has been handed down from other
generations. My parents used to say it  to everyone."

He paused for a moment and looking up as if trying to remember it in detail,
he smiled even more. "When we said, 'I wish you enough,' we were wanting the
other person to have a life filled with enough good things to sustain them."

He continued and then, turning toward me, he shared the following as if he
were reciting it from memory:

I wish you enough sun to keep your attitude bright.
I wish you enough rain to appreciate the sun more.
I wish you enough happiness to keep your spirit alive.
I wish you enough pain so that the smallest joys in life appear much
bigger.
I wish you enough gain to satisfy your wanting.
I wish you enough loss to appreciate all that you possess.
I wish you enough "Hellos" to get you through the final "Good-bye"

He then began to sob and walked away.

My friends and loved ones, I wish you enough.

They say, "It takes a minute to find a special person, an hour to appreciate
them, a day to love them, but an entire lifetime to forget them"

Send this phrase to the people you'll never forget and also remember to send
it to the person who sent it to you. It's a short message to let them know
that you'll never forget them.

If you don't send it to anyone, it means that you're in a hurry and you need
to slow down to enjoy what is around you, the people around you.

I wish you enough.

Going to Phoenix to visit relatives and friends.
I will be in Phoenix, Peoria, Scottsdale, and

I was going to get some for my bread machine and make bread my

They're not all that exciting, but if you're in the mood for some xmas
parade pictures, here they are:

http://maynor.net/Temp/Jackson/

If you wonder why there aren't many viewers on the sidewalks in most of
the pictures, it's because I took the first couple of pictures on the
main street and then decided to go to the other street, where the parade
looped up before ending, since it occurred to me that I wanted to be on
that other street at the end because it was where the xmas tree was.

I didn't see the tree actually get lit.  I hadn't realized how late is
would be -- how long the whole thing would take.  The parade started at
2:00 and ended just before 5:00.  It was LONG.  I didn't take any
pictures of Santa Claus at the end with a huge bunch of horses around
him -- men on horses galloping about in circles.  (And speaking of
circles, I'm sorry I didn't get any good ones of the policemen doing all
kinds of fancy formations and circles and hot-doggy stuff on their
motorcycles at the beginning.  I just couldn't quite capture it.  They
were GOOD.)

Anyway, I was freezing totally to death by the time the parade ended --
had been standing out there since 1:30.  I then discovered that it
wasn't a matter of a quick lighting of the tree at the end of the parade
-- there was a whole program, with choirs and speakers and stuff.
Fortunately, I had been standing up near the tree before the parade
ended and had seen a police car drive up.  My gut feeling was that it
was my former teacher, Miss Breland, the giver of the tree.  She's 98
years old, still sharp and spunky, still drives around all over the
place and takes care of her younger sister, who is a spring chicken in
her early 90s, but I really didn't think they would expect her to drive
herself to this ceremony.  I was right.  I got the glimpse of an oldish
woman in the police car (turned out I was looking at Miss Breland's
younger sister, who was in the back seat -- Miss Breland was in the
front seat).  So I went over to the car and had a great conversation
with her.  We visited for a good little while, and she told me the next
time I'm in Jackson to call her and we can go out to lunch together.

I'm not sure whether she was brought out of the car at the last minute
to actually stand there as the mayor lighted the tree.  It was mighty
cold for a 98-yr-old to be standing outside.  The plan might have been
for her to watch from the policecar, which was parked very close to
where the mayor was going to flip the tree switch.  If my car had been
parked anywhere close, I would've endured the cold and waiting for the
moment when the lights sprang on.  But I was parked a pretty good
distance away, behind the Old Capitol museum, which I visited briefly
before going down to the parade area.  So I decided that the thing to do
was to go on and leave right after the mayor's brief welcome -- before
the rest of the program.  I wouldn't have if I hadn't gotten to have
that nice visit with Miss Breland before the ceremony.

It also has far, far less gluten - people with wheat and gluten allergies
can generally eat a little rice with better effects (except, of course, the
high gluten kind!). The lower gluten means it doesn't stick together and
rise as a yeasted bread dough nearly as well. It burns at a lower temp too,
iirc.

None that I knew.  I'm guessing very few, if any.  And that seems odd to
me.  The reason I'm guessing very few, if any, is that she retired
around '70, which means that most of her former students would be white,
and there were very few whites at the event.  (Jackson is predominantly
black, so it's not surprising that there would be more blacks than
whites at city events, but I was surprised at how few whites I saw there
-- it's not as if Jackson is 100% black.)

Unbelievably, the best dessert I have ever had, I ate sitting across the
table from our own Mr. Samant. I remember vivdly being so surprised at the
intense goodness of the flavor that it actually interrupted my train of
thought. Sadly, the conversation was so much more interesting that I never
flagged the name of the dish for memory. Something extremely light, pumpkin
and cinnamon mousse-ish.

It was in "our neck" this week! The SU football team, which has been
decidedly lackluster the last two years, surprised everyone by not finishing
5-5 when they won the last game of the season, energized (I surmise) by the
rumors that their coach, universally admired as a good guy, might be fired
over losing seasons. In spite of a resounding victory over Notre Dame, the
Sunday papers were full of rumors that he would still be canned.

I simply do NOT know how teachers have the patience.
I mean, someone has provided this student with this
opportunity, and she lets it whiz by her without a
sidelong glance!  Botheration!

These two notes were from a student in my Descriptive English Grammar
class, a class having its final exam at 8 a.m. tomorrow, plus make-up
time for those who missed previous tests.  This person missed test
three.  In fact, I don't think she's been in class at all since sometime
before test three.  She's not dumb, but she just doesn't bother to make
it to class.  And her sending me this e-mail this afternoon was what I
would call dumb.  Here are my replies to her two notes.

Speaking of good-guy coaches, there was a great picture in today's
Starkville Daily News of our new football coach at last night's
basketball game leading Bully, the dog, out onto the floor at half-time.
    Supposedly the crowd went wild.

I tell the students on day one that their missing class is their problem
-- that I don't "take off points" for missing class since that strikes
me as something more appropriate for elementary school, but that if they
miss, it's their responsibility to figure out what they missed and do
something about it.

I should add that if this student had been in class in the past however
long and had asked me for the answers to that practice test today, I
would have gone to my office and found the test and e-mailed her the
answers.  Iow, I do go out of my way to help students when I think it is
appropriate to do so.  But I feel no sympathy for or reason to help a
student who simply hasn't bothered to care until the day before the exam.

I think she meant it as a chain letter type of thing,
but, of course, I cannot speak for her.

It didn't really come as a surprise to me that that cute picture I
mentioned while ago isn't on the SDN webpage -- the picture of Croom and
Bully.  It is a very, very lame site.  It has the accompanying article
but no picture:

When I got home today and realized how far behind I was in everything, I
decided that I should've set nomail and then acted accordingly -- as in
I deleted all the backlog of list mail.  So I don't know exactly what
we're talking about here, but I have seen the "I wish you enough
posting" somewhere or another and have assumed that indeed it is a chain
letter sort of thing.  Though I have not chosen to send it along, my
impression has been that it is something one sends along in chains.

Hmm.  What makes a positive anymore use "great"?  Is it just a matter of
using it naturally?

I think I've mentioned that I did not grow up as a positive anymore
speaker.  A few years ago I started hanging out with a couple of p.a.
speakers, and started imitating them.  What started out as affectation on
my part became everyday speech.

I sincerely hope this works out well for everyone
involved (MSU and Croom).  Seems the BB team has a
promising start as well.  I haven't seen them play
yet, it's so early in the season.  I can't wait for
the season to really get swinging.

Yes, I was surprised by that in the pictures you posted.  I was tempted to
make some comment like the one you made in the New Hampshire airport about
lily white New England.

Chris and I have discussed the fact that there is
little point in showing credits at all.  I'm surprised
the various unions haven't squealed to high heaven
about it.  I also think every film maker should be
required to show the title of the movie in the last
frame.

If she did, she should have indicated that in some way - if she wanted to
be honest.

I have never seen a chain letter - sent as a chain letter - that did not
make clear that it was not an original composition.

Sorry if I copied something illegally. It was my baby girl that send it to
me, and I thought it was so moving that I send it on to you all. I never
understood these rules that you have here. Where I come from the only time you're not
allowed to copy, is when it says "copy protected". Forgive me? Theo

Yikes, Bethany, I'm surprised.  It was so clearly a forwarded piece I
didn't even bother to Google it to find out, and I Google pretty much anything.

I thought it was a sweet piece, Theo -- thanks for forwarding it.

All e-mail is automatically "copy protected" by the author, whether it
says it or not.

I don't think that's entirely true. For movies, I believe there's a
rule about how fast the names can scroll by. Don't know about TV.

That happened to me with crossing my 7's.  I started doing it
occasionally as something that I guess I would call affectation.  It was
sort of funny feeling and cute feeling or something.  The more I did it,
the more I got used to it, and suddenly I reached a point when it is so
natural for me and seems so clear and reasonable that I can't bring
myself to write an uncrossed 7.

I'm used to certain settings that are almost all black, but I hadn't
thought of a xmas parade as one of them.  I guess one reason may be that
it was city-sponsored and included floats or cars or whatever
representing various city departments.  Most of the city officials, both
elected and non-elected are black.  But I was surprised that there were
no bands etc. from some of the racist academies.  I saw one float for a
Catholic school, so it was obviously not limited to the city schools.
Various of the 'burbs have their own parades.  I saw a long list of
parades in the paper for places like Ridgeland, Madison, Clinton, etc.
etc.  But there are some white people living in Jackson itself.

Me too.  I worry that people's expectations are going to be too high --
that they'll be expecting instant miracles.  Croom keeps warning the
fans that patience will be needed.

Yes, it's still creampuff season (a term I learned here on Words-L for
the teams a basketball team plays before xmas).  We are undefeated, I
think, against the creampuffs, but real opponents will be quite another
matter.  It's a shame that Travis Outlaw, the Starkville High School
super-star who was seriously considering coming here, decided to go on
to play professional basketball straight from hs.

That's what I was talking about:  TV.  I've seen credits squeezed,
sped up, even converted to plain text with the ending music
totally eliminated as they show commercials on the larger part
of the screen.

When I want to really see the end credits, I get the movie.

Forgive me? Theo >PS Spend some time on a Dutch board, and no name for the

Theo, you did not, so far as I know, <copy> anything illegally. What you
did was send under your own name a piece of text composed by someone else
- without indicating that you were not claiming authorship. There are many
ways to indicate that one is sending text composed by someone else - quote
marks, <>, a brief note, etc.

When my students do what you did, I have to fail them and consider
disciplinary action.

Did it really not occur to you to add a note saying that you were
forwarding a piece composed by another person? Of course, the style was so
different from your writing style that that was reasonably clear to your
readers - but still, it is your obligation.

It's okay with me, Theo.  I'm sure you meant no harm,
but one does have to be careful about protecting the
creative rights of others.

Surely it won't be too long before we hear an
announcement of the new princess' name.

I also noticed the foremost banner read "Holiday

I've noticed a couple of people seem to use programs that truncate

> When I want to really see the end credits, I get the movie.

Did anyone see the credits for Angels in America last night? I can't believe that the rabbi was Meryl Streep. I had read that we wouldn't believe who played the rabbi, but my guess was John Turturro (sp?).

Also re Angels in America -- it was supposed to be set in the mid-eighties, yet the phrase "politically correct" was used. *uc* and I thought that was a little early -- we thought it was an early nineties phrase. Anyone know different? IMFTATL.

I've noticed a couple of people seem to use programs that truncate

I was happy for the redemption part. I find drunkard movies (a la Leaving Las Vegas, The Lost Weekend -- "I'm not a drinker--I'm a drunk." ) very depressing.

I knew this--I saw her on some talk show talking about it. Whoever
interviewed her asked her if it was hard, and she said laughed and
said it was amazingly easy. I gather that she had 3 roles in this.

I think it's earlier than early 90's. I don't think mid-80's is far
off. I know that Karsten went to see the play in Portland in the
mid-90's, which means that it had been around for a while.

I didn't hear the phrase until the early nineties, either.  But:

The a capella group The Bobs used "politically correct" as the refrain of
their song "Please Let Me Be Your Third-World Country".  The Bobs' website
has the lyrics; the copyright date is 1984.  So it was an 80s phrase, at
least in some parts of the country; The Bobs, of course, have always been a
San Francisco-based group.

Yes. Several of the actors played multiple roles. Emma Thompson as a crazed homeless person was pretty good too.

I keep both hands clean.  Only one of them actually touches the food.  I
also generally go wash my hands immediately after eating this style so I can
go back to eating the regular fashion.

Bethany:

>GREAT use of positive anymore!

GREAT?!? why?

I hadn't really noticed positive anymore until Bookrat's Great American
wordslur tour (1996 ?) when we first discussed it on this service.
After that, I've been hearing it (and slowly using it) often enough
that I rarely register it and no longer remark on its presence.
It seems to be used a lot more now and not just by me.

Before long, I guess we'll hear him using his use of his M.D. to eliminate
the need for health care plans...he'll heal the sick, raise the dead and
feed the 5'000.


Yesterday's NYTimes magazine had "The Dean Swarm" on the cover:
http://www.nytimes.com/2003/12/07/magazine/07DEAN.html  (free registration)

Last February, Clay Johnson, 26, took a trip from Atlanta to the Dominican
Republic to visit his girlfriend, Merrill, who was studying linguistics at a
university there. He carried an engagement ring in his pocket, but when he
arrived, he said, Merrill was cold and distant, and he never gave it to her.
Before he left, Merrill told him that she didn't love him anymore.

He returned to his apartment in Atlanta, where he worked as a freelance
technology consultant. His place was also serving as a storage space for
Merrill's possessions, in boxes, and as a temporary home for her two cats.
He was allergic to the cats. He stripped to his underwear, lay on the floor
in a fetal position and remained there for days, occasionally sipping from
an old carton of orange juice. "I was completely obliterated," he says. "I
didn't know something like that could actually cause physical pain."

Johnson's friends kept calling, trying to think of something that would get
him out of the house. Finally they hit on one: Howard Dean.

Johnson had been talking about Howard Dean for about a year. He had never
voted, but after his mother developed cancer and could no longer afford her
health insurance, he became interested in politics. When he looked at the
various Democrats running for president, he felt drawn to Dean right away.
He liked the health care plan that Dean had instituted in Vermont and his
forthright style, and later appreciated Dean's clear opposition to the war
in Iraq.

At his friends' urging, Johnson attended a Dean gathering last spring. Sixty
people showed up, more than could fit in the coffee shop that Meetup.com had
selected for them. So they gathered in the parking lot instead. Everyone
took a turn saying why he or she liked Howard Dean. Someone handed out Dean
stickers, and then people broke up into twos and threes to chat. Johnson
spent most of the meeting talking with a young Duke graduate named Julie
Reeve, who, he says, was "really smart." She was also, he says, "the most
beautiful girl I have ever seen."

Johnson didn't think he had much of a chance with Julie Reeve, but at least
he had a reason to get up off the floor. He threw himself into the Dean
campaign. He began knocking on doors, reading books on precinct districting
and setting up databases. He saw Reeve at campaign events, and even went out
with her a couple of times apart from their campaign activities, but he
couldn't tell if she liked him.

In May, the Dean campaign posted a notice on its Web site saying that it
needed a programmer familiar with social-network software to work in the
headquarters in Burlington, Vt. Johnson quit his job, put the money from
Merrill's engagement ring toward a Volkswagen Passat and headed out to
Burlington.

Holly & I were with my sister and our four nieces while one bowled for
state-level Special Olympics (her team got fourth).  While we were at
supper, my sister reminisced at the things we were forced to eat and how she
dealt with the girls.  We chose Romano's Macaroni Grill because they're very
flexible in the orders ("can I have just the spaghetti noodles with some
parmagesan sauce on it?"), a bit more upscale than the ladies are accustomed
to, they have huge portions so they could box up the food & get at least
one, if not two more meals out of reheating them.  I was updated on my
doppelganger niece who generally has the same problem when it comes to
creating|discovering dunsels, and food (tastes) in general.

This is by no means an exhaustive list and it's no particular order:

Meat gristle|fat, esp. pork chops & steak - actually, I don't eat a lot of
red meat in general and only if it's thoroughly cooked - I don't want to see
that a good vet could still save it; sea food (calamari & whatnot in
general, fish); broccoli; cauliflower; kale; okra; other cooked veggies
(e.g., carrots, celery) when they are in soup or stew, although I like them
raw; coconut; mushrooms; anchovies (on pizza, see fish above); cooked
tomatoes - i.e., I don't like them as a standalone item but obviously they
are in things such as pasta sauce or salsa, etc. which is fine. I just don't
like them sliced & cooked as part of a meal.  I do, however, like them
sliced with mayo & salt on them. Raisins; cooked pineapples; green/bell
peppers (although I like jalapenos, serranos, chipotles, and habeneros, all
of which make their way into homemade sauces); "egg dishes" although I'll
eat scrambled dishes if I'm the one to cook them and I'll eat french toast;
melons; beets; eggplant & zucchini (unless they are sliced real thin, dipped
in egg, rolled in corn meal, and fried in a skillet with butter); spinach,
jeez, when can I stop?

My guess would be they could be using specific parts of the tomato to make
the sauce which do not bear the Vitamin C (or enough measurable) dosage
(peel? pulp? seeds?).  The same might be true for how they process it -
perhaps they add something to it in the processing which causes things to
"drop out of the equation" much like a chemistry quiz where you have to
guess which metals are in a liquid by adding the correct liquids in the
correct order so as to get the metal out of solution without taking others
unintentionally. (that's purely speculative)

Thinking about love apples, which are indigenous to South America and were
taken back to Europe by early explorers (just to add some fun facts to this
message), and their potency WRT one vitamin, we were required to participate
in a service club's essay contest in high school regarding biological
{anything}.  I suppose it made the service club feel good they were making
us learn something we wouldn't ordinarily do. Then again, if it was so fun &
the prizes were so nice, they should have made it extracurricular and every
who would think it to be fun and clamoring for the prizes would do so.
Unfortunately, they thought they'd get a higher participation rate if they
made it a required project in school. When the latter is chosen rather than
the former, I know how "fun" it'll be and if they are afraid people won't
participate in sizeable numbers for the newspaper to be able to say, "over
x'xxx students participated in the Optimist's Biology Contest to attempt to
win..."

The bottom line is, if they are afraid of sizeable participation, they
shouldn't be doing it at all.[1]

Anyway, I did mine on the dandelion.  Much like the current Total commercial
where you'd have to eat four bowls to get all of your {x} than you'd get
from {cereal y}.  I delved into all of the things one could do if they
raised a dandelion farm instead of a tomato, orange, or <several other
things> farms.  No extra sprays, weed killers, etc.  dose-for-dose <x> times
the Vitamin A than tomatos, etc. and that if they went to pick them, there'd
be enough of a root system (because it would go down (?) 45" and pop back
up) to restart itself.  I got third.  It was a crummy suede satchel which
had "McDonald's" branded into the side.  Fortunately, my mom took it and has
enjoyed it since.

[1] "Okay, everyone bring their toothbrushes tomorrow and we'll all stay
after and scrub the bathrooms and have fun together."  This is how I have
viewed "Let's do" activities. for a long, long time.  I'll go to movies &
whatnot with people from work, but when it borders on the things I've
mentioned...

Politically correct was used in a certain sector to mean "speech consistent
with and supportive of personal political beliefs" looong before the 90's
- as far back as the 70s. Sometime in the Contract Against America years,
it was borrowed as ammunition, claiming a "thought-nazi" mentality which
forced people who weren't concerned with the issues to talk in line with
someone else's agenda. Ironically, Rush L., who was at the forefront of
making "PC" equivalent to "mark of Satan", was very PC according to the
original usage - especially when he made vitriolic attacks and slurs which,
though unfounded and unfair, represented his politics accurately.

Have I told yet abt my friend the supertaster? She has perhaps 10x the
number of tastebuds I have; and one year she made a NewYears resolution
to expand her diet. I asked in November how her year had gone, and she
said with hesitation, "well, I eat carrots now".
Prior to that, "white" pizza and chicken w/out sauces was abt all I'd ever
seen her eat - oh, and junk food of various types.

I want to know how Bethany got into this conversation.

I did mean that the Dutch were not inbred.  But maybe that's only
this generation that's just getting married.

This was a fun web site:
http://www.xs4all.nl/~kvenjb/genealogy_nl/nassau/nassau.htm

It thinks the baby is going to be named Catharina Amalia.  The
guys at work today thought Emma was more likely than Wilhelmina
(my suggestion).

Ah, the internet geeks figured it out!
see
http://www.expatica.com/source/site_article.asp?subchannel_id=19&story_id=2935

Look where www.catharina-amalia.nl and
www.princescatharina-amalia.nl go to!

I probably should have clarified "European royal families taken together are
fairly inbred compared to thr general populice." IIRC, Scientific American
had a good story about the genetics of inbreeding [humans] within the
previous few years.  I think they used a family in Appalachia and tried to
map all of the ways the members were intra|inter-related to each other.

There was a story in TV Guide about her "escapades" on a show which had her
living|working at a farm. She wanted to wear jeans but the controlling
interests in the show wanted her to wear her "rich clothes" so she'd look
that much more out of touch.

There was also a subsection with three blonde bubbleheads where one of them
said, "What's Wal-Mart? Is that a place where you can buy walls?"  another,
(Jessica Simpson, I believe), "Why do dolphins have a hole on the top of
their head?"

There is that, of course - inbred unions that produce
questionable off-spring.  But the aristocracies of all
nations have done it for centuries - to keep the
"good" genes "in the family".  Perfectly normal,
totally unrelated unions are also capable of producing
sickly and imbecilic children.  What do we blame that
on?

There have been trailers on tv showing them scraping up roadkill off of the
road while trying to figure out what it is at the same time.  With the
enormity of the $$$$ currently available to them plus whatever assets
they'll inherit on top of that, you figure they need something to keep
themselves entertained.

And speaking of roadkill...this has probably been five years ago or so
(probably in the Chicago Tribune), but the Tennessee State Legislator put
together a bill to make it legal for the denizens of that state to pick up
roadkill and take it home to eat.  Prior to that time, it was illegal to do
so [and stated as such in the lawbooks according to the story].

In the northern part of Indiana (during my EMT days), we'd be dispatched as
a "just in case" (we got dispatched for everything) when there'd be a big
collision between a good-sized deer and a smallish car (at least half the
time the animal was hitting the car [albeit near the front-corners] than
vice-versa). I don't even remember the "10-code"[1] code any more, but if
the Conservation Officer(s) heard it and were able to make it in time, they
had first dibs as part of "tracking the deer population").  After that, it
was the cop.  It rarely went to the car owner(s).  Free venison, even when
it was out of season.  Lots of cops kept spare blankets in the trunks to
reduce the blood seepage.


[1] There were some interesting codes: 10-200+ codes were all eateries and
related stores.  The ambulance system didn't have a great kitchen system so
most people either carted their own food in when the started a shift (my
partners and I did full weekends so that didn't work well) or got fast food.
"Multi-Township Base, this is Multi-Township Eight, Copy.  Enroute to your
destination." "Roger, Multi-Township Eight. Please attend to 10-217 on your
return." "Roger, Multi-Township Base." (10-217 was Pizza Hut - someone had
placed a pickup order when they had an idea as to when we'd be returning
from the hospital).  There was a huge list on the flip-down visor.  It was
done so all of the busibodies at home with scanners wouldn't be quite as "in
tune" as thought they were.

I need to know.

------------------------------------

Affectations - joining two messages at once - playing catch-up.

Natalie mentions dash-7.  My mother says I've used dash-7 and as long as she
remembers me writing - and no one else I had been around did such things.
The dash-7 wouldn't stand out in a particular arena, but the dash-Z would
come from exposure to the world of math.  When my mom was preparing to work
on her Master's Degree by taking refresher undergrad classes, there were
certain classes I'd attend as well.  When everyone was either working in a
group or quiz/test, the professor(s) would call me up to the front (usually
if it was a math class) and I'd get private exposure to stuff I wasn't
getting at school. (I certainly wasn't misbehaving in class)  But being
given a book with open-ended learning and someone I can ask things like "why
this and not that?" was something I've never forgotten. That would have put
my exposure to late high school or early college algebra at roughly first or
second grade, so I'd have seen (and used) dash-Z initially about then and it
continued forever.

Yes.  I hope next year to make the ARF banquet call itself Holiday
Banquet instead of Christmas Banquet.  It will still be Christmasy, just
as the parade yesterday was Christmasy, but it does seem a wee bit more
inclusive to call it Holiday.  I noticed at the p.o. the other day that
in the display of xmas stamps there are now also Hannukah stamps and
Kawanza stamps.  Maybe there have been for a long time.

There are bunches of Outlaws in Starkville, all distantly related
supposedly, though they've ended in up rather different walks of life.
One, for example, is the Assistant Chief of Police, while another is
famous for having carried out a grisly murder.

I don't know exactly when it came along, but I feel sure it was pretty
common by the mid '80s.

Sorry, been a bit busy ... Yeah, that was a pretty good restaurant,
heh. No flavor-hating going on there. This makes me think I shouldn't
constantly get "whatever has chocolate". That's lame.

The neighborhood's going hi-class ... "Bistros" and what not ...

Her thoughts in elmininating the others she had thought about reminded
me of mine.  I liked Dean from the beginning but was willing to drop him
at any point that I thought somebody else might do better.  I think
that's unlikely now.  Kerry was one I had hope for at first, but that
quickly faded.  Then I started getting more and more interested in
Edwards, but I do think he comes across as too boyish -- voters right
now don't want boyishness.

I have been waiting to tell this tale
during a time when Janet's actively
WORDS-L-ing, what with her interest
in offbeat sexual behavior and Broadway
musicals, but hey:

On my way to church, I pass a "massage
parlor"[1] (and a swingers club as well,
but that's of no relevance here) named
"Bangkok Spa".  One day, in response to
an invitation to enjoy the wares, I said
(sigh, so lonely):

"I get my kicks above the waistline, sunshine."

O.K., it's stupid and lame, and she did NOT

Works for me. :)

>[1] a M'SAJ PAWLAH, as well as BAWS and TEMPUHLS

I recently got to hear the A*Teens (ABBA-prime) cover, and it's pretty
good.  The lead singer even tries to get the drawl in for that line, with
some small success.

It's actually their above-the-waistline line that's worst, I think; they do
it as "I get my kicks above the waistline, *sunshine*" instead of Murray's
"I get my kicks *above*...."

Syllabic accents can be really important.  The one that gets me right now
is the Expedia sound, which is a chorused "expedia *DOTCOM*".  Why you'd
want to emphasize the TLD instead of your company is beyond me.

        Not bad.  It turns out they're sort of throw-backs to the old
industrial strength control nylons I think of old ladies
wearing.  They did suck in and smooth (although there's only
so much iron undies can accomplish).

Anthony Stewart Head, also known as the Taster's Choice guy, and he's
played Tim Curry's role in a stage production of Rocky Horror.  I first saw
him in VR5, where he played a darker role than Giles (on Buffy) started
out to be.

Girls should jump, too, and it doesn't take much to be valuable.

"A modest amount of leg-strengthening jumping exercises added to gym
classes for girls on the brink of puberty resulted in significant gains in
bone mass and strength, a Canadian study published yesterday found."

FYI -
On Wednesday, December 10, the Court TV program, Forensic Files, will
feature a case of authorship identification with Carole Chaski.  For
information about the episode, go to
http://www.courttv.com/onair/shows/forensicfiles/episodes/letter_perfect.html

The segment airs at 9:30 P.M eastern time.

Caveat: the work of the linguist to be featured is controversial in the
linguistics community.

Thanks.  A bunch of my favorite subjects rolled into
one (including the controversy).  Can't wait.

Well, it's been a while since I stuck my head in here, so I thought I'd
catch up with you all...

Still spiky-headed, loft-dwelling and single, still trying to make Greenery
work right: in other words, no *major* news. Things generally seem to be
puttering along reasonably well. Finally found an antidepressant that seems
to be doing the trick (side benefit: it seems to also function as a mild
appetite suppressant, so I'm down a few pounds and am having to buy new
clothes, poor poor pitiful me). Went through some very rough times with
serious shoulder pain that I thought might be something really bad (I think
Betty & Larry saw the beginning of this when they were here for the open
house) -- turns out it was just the muscle spasm to end all muscle spasms --
am now in physical therapy and doing much better, although it still gives me
the occasional bad day.

The condo conversion is within days of closing at long last -- all that
remains is to notarize the CC&Rs, which was supposed to happen last week
except Tom & Katy seem to have lost them ::sigh::. So, this week instead,
most likely. I was planning to refinance the condo and pull enough money out
of it to give the damn press a financial shot in the arm... but... the
stupid press has screwed up my credit sufficiently that it now looks like my
best bet might be to actually *sell* the condo. My tenant is interested in
buying it from me, so we might just do a quick sale, no realtors, me
carrying some paper back, bob's your uncle, and be done with it all (just
hanging out there for an hour last week to let the appraiser in was pretty
depressing, although the tenant's fixed it up quite nicely). But the good
news seems to be that the place has approximately doubled in value since I
bought it, so there's plenty of dough in it, more than enough to put
Greenery back on its feet and still let me set some aside for a nest egg --
and I've promised myself, no matter what, a little bit extra to fix up my
front teeth, which are troubling my single-girl vanity these days.

The romantic arena is stunningly empty right now; haven't even been doing
much dating. (What an odd, retro-sounding word that is.) Most of the time it
doesn't bother me, but right now, with the holidays looming, it feels a bit
lonely. Jay and I have our occasional, vitriolic flare-ups, but things have
been quiet for the last couple of weeks, thank heavens. (He's had a steady
girlfriend for nearly a year now, and she seems quite nice, but his need to
feel victimized is apparently pretty much bottomless.)

I'm working very hard, both writing and publishing. This week I'm finishing
up a 10,000 word monograph -- "The Toybag Guide to Canes & Caning" -- part
of a new series we're breaking out next month, which was a lot of fun; I
actually think that this last hellish year has improved my writing skills a
lot. (No, this stream-of-consciousness post is not a sample.) I'll be glad
to get it out of here, though, and get back to work on "Radical Ecstasy,"
which is my big work still. I'm also doing a lot of editing on our lead book
for this spring, "The Kinky Girl's Guide to Dating," which is by a novice
author who's got a nice style but needs a lot of guidance.

And the Dudes and I are preparing for an adventure. This is finally the year
I convinced them that, instead of presents, we should take the dough and put
it toward a vacation instead -- so we're off to New York for the holiday,
leaving Christmas Day for five days and four nights. I sublet an apartment
on the Upper West Side, and we have tickets to four shows ("The Caretaker,"
"Avenue Q," "Retreat From Moscow," "Urinetown"), plus as much sightseeing
and general touristhood as we can stand -- neither of them has ever been to
New York before. Miles and Kristine are now officially a couple, and are
hoping to travel next year (he wants to go live in Prague for a while, and
she wants to go to Madagascar where she has family), so it may be that this
is the last Christmas that I have both Dudes with me and I intend to enjoy
it as such.

Not too much other news, I guess; I have a strong feeling that 2004 is going
to be a lot better than 2003 for me, and I hope it is for you guys, too.

I really cannot imagine a world in which having

OUR NYC PARTY GROWS!!  Does your theatre-going allow a dinner break on
Saturday, the 28th?

It's always great to hear from you.  I'm cc'ing you on this list reply
in case you aren't reading mail.

And to the others of you who were talking about it:  Are our Dec. 28
plans real?  Is it going to happen?

PS: Which airport are you arriving at and at what time?  I'm also
arriving in NYC that day.  Can't remember when now -- late afternoon, I
think.  Laguardia.

The header text is from my very favorite poster - of an old dude lifting
weights - wrinkled skin and all.

I think of it as I contemplate knee replacement for my worn-out right
knee. I was doing well until the weather changed - working out with no
pain, etc. Then came Saturday morning, 100% humidity, etc. - I could
barely walk!

Titanium is likely to be my favorite metal as well as my favorite
computer as I attempt to grow old gracefully! Or at least <mobil-ly>.

Interesting. It's also the footer text for my very favorite poster. An
old woman wearing a snakeskin leotard, standing very erect and looking
directly into the camera. It's in the bathroom of the Pilates Center
of Austin.

This is a timely topic since I just had a phone conversation with an old
friend and am wondering whether she really did remember to send in her
ARF banquet reservation and money.  She called me about a month ago and
asked me if I was going to the banquet.  I said yes, for sure, since I'm
in charge of it.  She asked me if I would mind giving her a ride to it
-- that she wasn't going to make a reservation unless she had a ride
since she can't drive at night.  Anyway, I called her a little while ago
to tell her that I have to be there early and to ask her if she would
mind my picking her up at 5:15.  When I said at the beginning something
about calling to confirm the plans for tomorrow night, she said,
"Tomorrow night?  What's tomorrow night?"  I told her the banquet, and
she seemed to remember.  But then she said, "Now what is it exactly that
we're going to?"  (This is not, btw, my 94-yr-old friend.  This person
is a good bit younger than that.  The 94-yr-old will also be there but
will have gotten herself there unaided and will have the occasion firmly
on her mental calendar.)

I've heard that knee-replacements aren't all that much fun but that one
survives them and lives happily ever after.

Do the rest of you old people have problems in winter with slits
developing in your fingers?  They are unpleasant.  Hand lotion doesn't

I'd like some clarification, Marie said Sat the 28th, but Sat is the 27th.
What is the preferred date?

Ligniere gets them on his feet. My little sister gets them on her
hands, and her husband bought her a paraffin thingy for Christmas a
while back, and she hasn't had any problems since.

Oops.  You're right.  Since I'm flying home on Monday, the 29th, I bet
Sunday is the 28th and Saturday the 27th.  I hadn't paid close attention
since either of those days is fine with me.  I have not yet made any
specific NYC plans.  Marie?

This rings a bell.  I think you mentioned the paraffin thingy earlier,
but I can't remember whether you told what it is exactly.  I want one.

Somehow this stuff sounds kind of trivial, though, when I think about
the various depressing news floating around me.  I just heard that Sally
Barksdale, wife of my old hs boyfriend Jimmy (of Netscape), died this
morning.  I knew she had cancer but didn't know how far along it was.
And my colleague who was in the car wreck several weeks ago is not
improving.  Supposedly the doctors are offering no hope now and are
suggesting removing tubes -- as in life-supporting tubes.  Typing on
fingers with painful gashes somehow seems pretty minor.

That's much larger and more extravagant than my sister's. Hers is
small enough to keep on her teeny bathroom counter without getting in
the way.

Yes.  Nothing helps.  My husband says I get them
because I work too hard.  I allow him to believe this.

Chris used to be troubled with gout, and on one of his
trips to the hospital during a particularly bad
attack, the doctor ordered that his ankle be so
treated.  It never happened, but they tried to charge
us for it.

It makes sense to me that it would work, though.

Hey, ever hear the study of the inbred families in a
small town in rural upstate NY? It was done in the 30's
and I am having a "senior moment" over the names in the
study - it was supposed to prove that cousins breed badly.
Turned out to be a hoax, the data doctored to prove a
moral point; but the supposed families were in "my neck".

Interesting, that they would feel it necessary to
doctor "facts", when there were surely living,
breathing examples to bear out their theories.  My
interest in all of this was stirred 35 years ago by
Robert Massie's book "Nicholas and Alexandra".  Mr.
Massie's son was hemophiliac.  He took it from there
and wrote about it, I took it from there and read
everything on European royalty of that era that I
could get my hands on. I am afflicted by this
fascination, even now.

Yes.  I guess I'm looking for the superset that includes both, though.

Yep.  But he at least puts the important stuff in the stressed part, right?

I did lots of ropejumping as a kid, but broke my hip anyway!:-(
And speaking of pain... This is the worst I've ever had. Still can't walk,
although I force myself to get to my dau's truck so I can do my shopping.
Fortunately, the store nearby has these great scooters so that allows for easily
getting around.....

Yes. Or in other words, my boss is not the type who wrings
every minute and overtime minute that he can out of people.

We just had to move, that's all. Some (to my mind, frankly
sphinctorial) decisions by our subletter surprised us last
month. It's OK ... we are going to a better place. But it
has taken up a lot of time.

I am set on path of 1-day weeks in January, at this rate...

Well, there's the crown prince's brother, Johan Friso.  He just
got engaged to Mabel Wisse Smit.  She used to have a relationship
with Klaas Bruinsma, who's called the first Dutch 'godfather'.
The cabinet has decided not to give them permission to marry, but
they're going to anyway (this means Johan Friso is out of the
line of succession).  Her father died by falling through the ice
while skating.  Her mother got remarried to a guy who worked at a
bank and was on the dutch hockey team (hmmm.  unmarked hockey is
usually field hockey not ice hockey...)

Then of course there's Maxima, the new mommy.  Her father, Jorge
Zorreguieta was the most influential state secretary during the
Videla regime in Argentina.  He wasn't allowed to attend the
wedding (but no one seems to know where it was that he was).  He
also missed the birth of his granddaughter because he had to
leave on business a few days ago.

Thugs.  What we got now is girls who know thugs.

Speaking of pigouts at "upscale" restaurants, I was at one
of those some time ago--a place called "Mas". Why our Latino
brothers have to imitate the lame fad of 1-syllable names
I don't know, especially since "Sauce" and "Feast" and
the rest of them opened 3 years ago ... Anyhow, it is a
very fine restaurant indeed for eaters. Though a serious
foodie would probably not find the rioja fabulous (it has
to be fabulous). The best part was that the waiter was a
weighty fatherly-looking man with a tough square face and
a Mexican-style goatee ... that's to say, as opposed to
the wimpy snotbags who have cornered most of the waiting
profession at such places. He kept track of everything we
did and wanted, without writing anything, and just offered
pretty damn excellent "service".

Imagine when I look at the receipt later that night and
find his name is "Juice". Juice. God, what the hell.

JUICE.

I'd rather have a small, unextravagant one.  I'll do some googling and
see what I can find.

Yeah, that was a mistake. Saturday the 27th. So far I only heard yesses from Rashmi and Natalie. Terry, you in? Jim? I should probably call to make a reservation (In case they have a private party or something going on at that early hour).

I'm looking forward to it.

I think 'prosody' does it. That has to do with the interaction between
sentence stress and word stress.

Wikipedia sez: "Prosody refers to distinctive variations of stress or
tone in phrases. Intonation and Vocal stress are the two elements of
(linguistic) prosody."

Prosody is really fascinating in tone languages like Japanese or
Chinese.

No--that's what make his style so odd. He stresses things like
prepositions and articles. I'm sure there are examples on the web, but
I don't have time to look right now.

Said knee stands a chance of being manufactured just north of here a piece.
I grew up in Warsaw, global home of orthopaedic materials (Zimmer, Depuy,
Othy, Biomet, etc.) - they've got a corner on most prosthetic joints and any

If that wasn't it, maybe that was the name of the family in the X-Files
episode "Home".  IIRC, that is traditionally the #1 pick when everyone is
permitted to vote the Top Ten favorite episodes for various X-Files'
marathons.  I may be misrepresenting the details a bit, but it involved a
baby being buried and some kids playing baseball finding it.  Scully
observes it has practically every genetic malady which would be considered
nearly impossible.  There are a total of three males in the family
(brothers?, uncle daddy?) and a female.  You never quite get a full glimpse
as they are kept primarily in shadow but you do get to see some strange
facial outlines and hardcore drooling.

     I'd forgotten about this:

         http://www.epguides.com/XFiles/

but it didn't go into as much detail. (http://www.epguides.com in general is
a nice encyclopaedia)

Here's a long overview|review:  http://tinyurl.com/yf8t

Which theories might they find facts to bear out?
The rest of your post below, which refers to a
physical condition resulting from recessive genes,
is not what they were looking for. "Criminality",
"Depravity", and "Promiscuity" are the kinds of
conditions they were trying to show were related to
the bloodline, if I understand the debunking report
correctly. It's a heck of a lot tougher to prove
that these are related to genetic traits; not to
mention the very much looser "inbreeding" of having
the occasional cousin or uncle-niece marriage in a
community over abt 100 - 150 years (as opposed to
the very consistent inter-marriage among European
royals for centuries)

Actually, there are two bodies which come to mind which have been much more
helpful in medical science.  1) There's a large family group (IIRC) off of
the coast of South America where the family tree is just clear enough to
avoid inbreeding (to some degree, whatever that is) but enough to make[1]
tracking Huntinton's genetic markers finite enough for detection.  It's
probably been fifteen or twenty years since I read about it.

The other hotbed of genetic information is Iceland.  It's pretty open to
genetic issues but the families are very well mapped with a relatively
stable citizenry, including a limited number of imports|exports. The gov't
and|or citizens have been compensated well for the wealth of information
they've provided and (IIRC) a substantial number of markers (more than
originally thought) have been tracked down and are (or nearly are) ready for
testing|tracking in the US.

I've been trying to figure out if there's a way to sneak that into the
Darwin Awards in some way (the chasers, not the targets) - perhaps if they
slip & fall, impaling themselves onto something.

I need to keep a better eye on the Darwin Awards (rather than wait for
others to send me verified stories).

If I could round up a Russian monk, I would ask him to
make an icon for me.  A friend has a son who is a
Jesuit priest, and he once offered to design an icon
for me.  He asked me to specify a saint, I said St.
Francis of Assisi.  He informed me that St. Fran would
not be appropriate.  I was too embarrassed by my
ignorance to ask why.  I still don't know - can you
enlighten me?

I think there's a statute of limitations on prosthetic joints - specifically
hips & knees - then again, they may have overcome those restrictions.
(I keep thinking 10-15 years as a lifespan-you might want to ask)

We know that, and now you know that, but he doesn't
want anybody to THINK that.

Btw, just as Yahoo insists Rita C's address is
SOWBELLY, it insists that your surname is "gruesome".
Nothing personal, I assume.

  re: The news from Toronto yesterday about the accident which killed a young Costa Rican student
 
  On one of my recent trips to Toronto I was visiting my friend Jonathan who works in a building near the corner of Yonge and Bloor.  As he was showing me the vista from his window, he pointed out the Uptown Theatre - a place filled with many memories for him.  There were some efforts underway at the time to preserve it, but with plans for yet another condo on the site, it seemed likely not to succeed.  Indeed, the efforts to avoid the wrecking ball did ultimately fail and yesterday, as a wall was being torn down, it fell onto an adjacent building - the Yorkville English Academy. A young student from Costa Rica was in the computer lab sending email to his family when the debris came crashing through the roof and killed him.  Others were trapped in the rubble but rescued.  It makes me angry when I think of all the ways this could and should have been prevented.  It makes me very sad to think of the family - cut off from their loved one in mid-sentence and of all the people whose lives have been scarred.   
 
I have no particular point other than to say what I am thinking and feeling.  Thanks for listening.
 
Paul

It doesn't seem to me it matters WHAT they were
looking for, if the study and "results" were
manufactured in any case.  Nothing much is "hard to
prove" under those circumstances.

Seriously, I don't know.

She never discussed a lot of things until she got divorced nine years ago
because of the environment she was in. After that, she's been more
interested in talking about [my] ages 2-18 (apologetically, although she has
credited our "together time" when I learned to read at two as the primary
cause she decided to become a teacher) and 32-now (how much I've changed
since she got divorced) and a lot of other familial issues (my maternal
grandmother, my kid sister, my nieces, esp. "Mike" (Mikhala), my
doppelganger).  Actually, Holly talks to her more than I do. She usually
calls Holly & they chat for an hour or two, then Holly tells me afterwards.

My youngest niece is as well.

Actually, if you have a body of twenty-three people (which aren't selected
to "stack the deck" against it), you have better than a 50% chance of at
least two of them having the same birthday (month,day; not year).

I don't think there are any complaints.  I heard about it via several news
sources last evening, including one of the local affiliates whose broadcast
is on an FM channel all of the time so hearing the news on the way home is
easy.  Unfortunately, you can line up the boneheads who permitted this to
occur and ask them what happened.  The first three words are always the same
thing:  "We didn't think anything would|could go wrong."  It's disgusting.

This is a *wild* guess based on an
assumption, but here goes...

You wanted the icon executed in the
distinctive Orthodox "style" (for lack
of a better word), right?

Well, some Orthodox might look a bit
<askance> at an icon of a non-Orthodox
saint.

Again -- this is a wild guess.

However, in the future, never be afraid
of asking a Jesuit for an explanation.
They _revel_ in such things, and you're
likely to lose the rest of the afternoon
getting an education.

Most of my profs said they'd do their best to be as interesting as possible
so you'd want to keep coming. And if not, they'd present information so
vital to the quizzes, tests, and projects such that no matter how well
someone took notes for them, it would be impossible to utilize the
information properly [otherwise]. But I also remember my "Modern European
History"[1] prof who seemed to start with an initial grade with how many
bluebooks we filled as part of a test.  I learned from the history
upperclassmen to bring the handy "family size" of pencils for tests.

[1] A lot of interviewers at various fairs & whatnot would ask me what my
favorite class had been, so I mentioned this one.  They would frequently
follow with, "Then why wasn't that your degree?"  My response was, "Your
question was 'What was my favorite class?' not 'What is my favorite
subject?'"

Yes, but it's one that I don't know. I certainly didn't mean that

It's a sad thing, for sure. And stupid. A waste of a promising life.

I'm sorry about the loss of the theater, too, of course, but at this
point, that's minor.

I love you. I want to say "I feel your pain", but that's too trite any
more.

Initially it was about 10 years. I am told that the time period is much

It was when he was promoted to management over his peers; they made
fun of him. He found this out from Phoebe, whom he hired as a temp.

One of the things that sticks in my mind is that he stresses 'be'.

They should be public.  Zimmer just purchased a firm in (???) Belgium,
Sweden (brain cells fading) for $X megabucks ($2B?) making it the world's
largest.  Biomet is public (symbol fails me), CEO is Dane Miller (good
search term as he's about the only person mentioned in conjunction with
Biomet) and is doing well in the market. Depuy (pronounced dee-pew) isn't as
big as the others but sizeable enough.  Othy may have disappeared as part of
a buyout (it was around when I left the city twenty years ago).  Most of my
friends' fathers while growing up were executives at one of these facilities
or the Donnelly Press.  They used to bring in movies to health clases in
grade school showing hip & knee replacements courtesy of the local
facilities.

Here are two sites which should help:  http://www.timeswrsw.com and
http://news.google.com  If you go to the Advanced Search and go for "Zimmer
Warsaw" (Biomet Warsaw, Depuy Warsaw) should yield info about the
companies).  The timeswrsw.com site isn't as helpful but the residents
believe it's better than nothing (we used to call the Times Union the "Times
Onion")

If there is replacement surgery involved, I would simply ask how long the
joints should last and what types of activities will have an effect upon
that lifespan.  They're making strides relating to  the joint's lifespan all
the time so you'll never know unless you ask.

But some creams do a much better job than lotions. My favorite is
probably Glysolid. I have others at home - most of which I buy at the
Farmers Coop or my favorite hardware store - I'll try to remmeber to post
more brand names later.

I've found CornHusters or Udder Cream to work pretty well.

That seems about right, although my parents beat the odds; they have five children and we have three birthdays between us. No twins. I do like sharing my birthday with my younger sister.

I also just found out that my across the street neighbor has the same birthday as me. He, who, BTW, came by, with his nine year old daughter, to take Laszlo out in the middle of the worst of the blizzard on Saturday. Laszlo got as far as a pee in the driveway, when he turned around looked up at me like, "What are these people, crazy?" and pulled back toward the house.

My brother had a friend nicknamed "Juiceman", whose real name was
Dussenberry, or Dusenberg, something like that. They were part of a club
called the "Flood Team". They actually went out drinking and riding around
getting high; but at some time during the course of the night, they'd stop
by a puddle in the corner of some farmer's field and, holding out their
hands, chant "Down Flood, Down Flood, Down Flood, Down". They claimed that
this held the river in its banks, and he often told my teetotalling parents
that he was going out with the Flood Team to perform this important service.

They grounded me for life for letting a friend put sample Creme de Menthe
bottles in my French Horn case. I never understood why he got away with
this. Part of it may have been that Juice, Batesy, and Bry had such boyish
faces, I suppose - 2 of the three looked like Rennaissance cherubs. This
was not the case with my imperious, sardonic brother, though - and they
certainly should have been acquainted with him!

The last literature I saw said that, despite advances in technology, one
shouldn't hope for that lifespan to improve. Since it's only sometimes
possible to do a second implant, and rarely or not at all a third, I have
been calculating my life expectancy for a while now. I still feel more
than 20 years away, so continue limping. My dad had double new knees, abt
7 or 8 years ago, and is still gardening and doing the mall-walk thing.

Somehow it seems weird that you can find something like this on the web,

The One Where Chandler Loses the Plot ... and Other Things:

Why would it be so strange?

Remember in the days before there was a web?  There was a scavenger hunt
where you had to find the shortest number of links to locate a particular
target?  99.9% of the people now online have no appreciation for this.  Then
again, 99.9% of the people aren't sure what to do if they don't get a
desired hit in the first two tries with a search engine.

My nieces (9-15 in age) are now playing catch-up on a bunch of shows via DVD
--  this was part of one stretch of my Sunday afternoon -- (1: "Uncle Phil,
did you watch M*A*S*H?", 2: "Uncle Phil, what was your favorite combination
of actors on M*A*S*H?", 3: "Uncle Phil, what was your favorite episode of
M*A*S*H?", 4: "Uncle Phil, who was your favorite Bond actor?", 5: "Uncle
Phil, Which Bond movie was your favorite?") (responses) 1: yes; 2: Henry +
Trapper + Frank (meaning seasons 1-3) or Potter + BJ + Frank (seasons 4-5);
3: "Dear Sigmund" (Season 5, which they haven't seen yet); 4: Sean Connery;
6: Goldfinger.

Well, it's not just about a pop culture show and which characters were in
it, but something at a deeper level: how the characters think and talk
about another character.

In five or 10 years things like Google will be analyzing linguistic
structure and have a pretty good understanding of what's being said on a
page instead of just which words are there, so it'll be less amazing then.

Remember this?

*******************
Bahá'í Peace Prayer
Be generous in prosperity and thankful in adversity.  Be fair in thy
judgement and guarded in thy speech.  Be a lamp unto those who walk in
darkness and a home to the stranger.  Be eyes to the blind and a guiding
light unto he feet of the erring.  Be a breath of life to the body of
humankind, a dew to the soil of the human heart and a fruit upon the
tree of humility.
********************

It's what I'm going to use for tonight's invocation, but it doesn't
strike me as being a *prayer*.  Isn't it more of an exhortation?  Also,
I'm thinking about leaving out "Peace" since it seems to me to be a
general prayer, not specifically about peace.  I'm going to call it
either "a short Baha'i prayer" or "a short Baha'i exhortation."  Or
should I say "a short Baha'i prayer that is really more of an
exhortation than a prayer"?

Is "baha'i" prounced [ba-HA-i] (baaa like a sheep, streesed HA as in
haha, i as in IPA symbol -- rhymes with see)?

No, not unless it's also cc:d to me at verdie@earthlink.net. If
anything's going on, we're probably in, but we need to get it set up
now because I also need to set up a get-together with my aunt while
we're in NY. Who-all's going to be there?

Actually, it's almost a benediction - but invocation works too, in my mind,
as it's calling to that which is good or holy in us.
Think of it as having an unstated "May we" in front of the "Be"s -
May each of us be a lamp to those who walk in darkness, and so forth.

An excellent way to spend time!  I saw him in the flesh a couple of

Hi, Michael E. Macmillan, I am hoping the header will attract
your attention.  The new winter catalog from MacFarland
(www.mcfarlandpub.com) features this AMW guide on page 1, for
only $45.  69 photos!

My attention was distracted by "Classics Illustrated: A Cultural
History"  (2002; $55), which I probably must add to my
collection.  There is a lecture by the author, Wm B. Jones, Jr.,
at The Center for the Book, Library of Congress, at:

http://www.loc.gov/locvideo/classics/

Excelsior,
Gruesome Grissom

My next door neighbors (who are) pronounce it [b@-HaI']  -- I think that's
right --that's two syllables with a schwa in the first syllable and the stress
on the second.  Almost sounds like "bye" with an h in the middle. I think
there is also a three syllable pronunciation, but I've never heard it -- I just
see it in my dictionary here. I've never really understood IPA. So I don't know how to translate it but it's got two a's with umlauts in the first two syllables
and what we used to call a "long e" (as in "bee") at the end, stress on the second. Pretty much what you have above (I think, but the vowels in the first
two syllable match and they are like the vowel in cot or father.

I know very little about the religion.

That's how I've always heard it. I had a roommate briefly who was
one--I ended up having to throw her out because she didn't pay her
rent.

Not embarrassing, but it's certainly not mainstream. Also, I've heard
bad things about their proselytizing.

Here's one POV: http://www.geocities.com/Pentagon/3016/tim.htm

It's not something I would want linked to my name.

My perception is that it is not a prayer.  I think

I was trying to figure out the best word to use in saying something
like, "For the invocation I want to read a short Baha'i ________ that
seems appropriate for the spirit of the season."  Then I'll read it.
Then I'll sit down.  "Prayer" would work, I guess, for the reasons
you've mentioned.  I had thought about that earlier.  A prayer is
usually addressed to a diety, but if you consider the diety as living
inside human beings, as I do, then this exhortation could also be a prayer.

Okay.

I do think it's a good invocation. I also think I'd rewrite it as

Thanks.  I laughed when I looked up at what I had written above.  I
decided to capitalize to show stress on the second syllable, producing
HA, which does not represent anything in IPA!  I meant [baha], rhyming,
but with the stress on the ha.

Thanks.  I just glanced at the url -- don't have much time now.  It
certainly does not bother me to be <non-mainstream>, but I don't want to
promote a religion that does <bad things>.  I could simply leave out
Baha'i, thus removing the pronunciation question also.  I could say,
"For the invocation I want to read a short, anonymous [prayer?] that
seems fitting for the season."

After reading that thing you sent, I am most certainly not joining them
for one of their "feasts". They invited us a couple of weeks ago, but we
were able to decline because we were going to go see Los Lonely Boys.

These are new neighbors. Our original neighbors -- who we adored -- moved
to St. Louis in September. These ones sort of weird me out. Too much lighting.

I did bump into their girls (who are sweet) one morning after they should have
been at school -- I was home with Laszlo -- and they told me that it was a
holiday -- "Bob's birthday".

B'hai ians?

Well, now I am lead to believe that they are welshers,
are unsure of their role as regards bigamy, and may be
involved with selling cleaning products.  I wonder if
Miss Bankhead was named after their master when her
mother was temporarily deafened by the massive entry
of troops?

I think of prayer as a plea or request.  Perhaps my
interpretation is wrong.

Afaik.

How about I call it a "meditation," starting with Clo's suggested "may
we"?  (I wouldn't have to keep repeating the may we -- one at the
beginning would handle it all.)  I think "meditation" might work.

> holiday -- "Bob's birthday".

Well, that's what I thought they said anyway. Actually it was
the Birthday of the Bab:
http://67.120.246.148/calendar/celebrations/birth_bab.asp

On October 20th, Bahá'ís around the world celebrate the Birth of the Báb, one of eleven Holy Days in the Bahá'í calendar. The Báb is often refered to as the Herald of the Bahá'í Faith, because it was His mission to prepare the way for Bahá'u'lláh, the Founder of the Bahá'í Faith. Like John the Baptist some 2,000 years before, the Báb called upon the people to purify themselves for the coming of the day of God. Unlike John, however, He founded an independent religion and claimed equal station with the likes of Moses, Jesus and Muhammad. Bahá'ís view the Báb and Bahá'u'lláh both as "Manifestations of God" even though by the Báb's own testimony His mission was subordinate to Bahá'u'lláh's.

Mime-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii"; format=flowed
Sender: owner-words-l@LISTSERV.UGA.EDU

I'm part of a group of folks that meet together every year.  The total
group is about 250, but the get-togethers end up being about 75.  It's a
contemplative group that is able to be reverential as appropriate.

The organizer has a bit of a Quaker background, and we've borrowed a tiny
bit of Quaker philosophy as we run meetings.

I foolishly suggested it would be nice one of these times to have a Quaker
meeting as part of the get-together.  I was thinking "emulate," but the
organizer took me at my word and thought "attend." :)

The organizer suggested some year we could use ACE Center
<http://www.aceconferencecenter.com/about.html> for the conference proper,
then attending the Plymouth Monthly Meeting
(<http://www.pym.org/abington-qm/pl.htm>, I think).

Is there another conference center able to accomodate 75 that springs to
mind with a Friends congregation nearby that wouldn't mind a bunch of
interested interlopers some Sunday or First Day?

This year's conference will be at Marconi Center
<http://www.marconiconference.org/> this month, our third time there.  It's
got integrated lodging and good food, and it's away from everything out on
Tomales Bay.  Highly recommended for away-from-it-all conferences and group
retreats.

Inside or out? I have very bright lighting indoors, as little as
possible outside. It interferes with local fauna.

I think of meditations as nonverbal.

An intellectual.  Seth is a very intellectual mathematician, who studies
theology on the side.  And he would make a pretty good Santa since he's

I know this has been hashed a lot - a quick Google exercise shows a
copyright on the story belonging to a motivational speaker named Bob Perks
in 2001.

I'm shocked. (seriously)  That's at least two years for my grandmother to
have seen it - she keeps me current on all of the "forwarded" type of email.
I've not seen it before now. (and yes, she's still alive.  She lives across
the lake from my mom and sends email to the school each day so my mom knows
she's made it through the night as she's leaving to go walk her daily three
miles.)

I've been skipping quickly through this.  Am rushing.  But wouldn't Bob
be Bab, the inspirer of their religion?  If so, why would having a
holiday for his birthday be freaky?  It's done in a big way for Jesus.

Although I've experienced TM, which is nonverbal unless you count the
mantra, my primary thought upon hearing the word "meditation" is of
things like Donne's meditations.

But now I must leave this discussion.  Next e-time will be post-banquet.
  YAY!

One of the things I *really* like about Friends' business meeting is
the time they allow between agenda topics to focus their thoughts.
I've tried to slyly incorporate this into meetings that I run.

Oh.

Without checking URLs, I think this is a bad, bad, bad idea. My
meeting is large, around 60 people, and we could not accomodate that
number of visitors; the meeting room is not large enough. I've no idea
how big the Plymouth meeting is, but I'd be surprised if they could do
this without having it be an enormous burden.

I keep meaning to get a copy of the handout we give to new
people--that explains the purpose of meeting and expected behaviors. I
will try to remember this week. I really do think you are better off
having your own meeting, partly for, um, energy reasons. You are your
own community, so it seems more fitting.

Karen,
practicing fierce optimism

I have to run, but want to say that I have known Ba'hai who were not at all
pushy or proselytizing; I suspect that, like all faiths, <some>

Thanks for your thoughtful alert. I have, in fact, seen the catalog
but not yet ordered the book. I will in good time, of course, but I
think I need to wait a little longer for the Bush economic recovery
to reach me. Alas, there was no tax refund in my mailbox.

That bears a look too.  Many of those went through my hands as a

The NCAA Soccer Final Four is this weekend at Ohio State.

This means fans from Bloomington (this is Yeagley's last year as a coach;
he is to soccer what John Wooden was to basketball) will likely have to
encroach on the turf of the current sniper.

Word has it something will be done to step up security on the interstate,
but no one knows what will actually be done (or when).

Stay tuned.

It's 3 times the size of the Syracuse meeting. I haven't been to
meetings elsewhere, so I don't know how large other meetings are. If
they get too large, they tend to split.

Also, there are different kinds of Quakers--even evangelical Quakers!!

No - Toronto is a mostly earthquake free zone. There's the odd
tremor, but the epicentre is general a fair way away (Quebec,
Missouri come to mind). We're almost on the Canadian Shield, and that
ain't gone anywhere for a billion years or more. (Well, yeah,
continental drift, etc. - you know what I mean.)

I think few things are as difficult, challenging, and satisfying as living
in community in some way. Right now, I am learning to do this at HH. We
have a dynamic board that is proposing some very positive changes re
maintainance, fees, etc. Tonight, residents of my building met with 3
board members to discuss all this. There will be a general meeting Dec. 18
- it should be very interesting. Also, I learned that I own over 2.5% of
this 92-unit condo association. Most individuals/families own about 1%.
That's staggering! King of the hill!

And I met my last class of the semester tonight - I had a great group of
students. I'd love to keep going with all of them for another semester (I
will see many of them in my Language & Law course in the Spring).

Now let me get some mss. finished ...

This is just to say, on top of everything else I dealt with
today (psych evals, students leaving on stretchers, etc.),
the current stomach virus going around first makes itself
evident with the most utterly vile smelling farts you've
ever encountered.  And many students are coming down with
this virus.  In my opinion, you haven't lived until you've
experienced extra potent teenager farts in a small,
overcrowded classroom on a rainy day.  All day.

"I rather suspect that the vastly overwhelming majority of Americans have
never been overseas (maybe we shouldn't count people who went with the
military or Peace Corps), and perhaps the majority have never been out of
their own state.  Partly it's that travel is pretty cussedly expensive
everywhere, but partly that they don't have any particular desire to."

The 'cloven sky' sung in the carol "It Came Upon a Midnight Clear" always
confused me as a child.  I associated it with cloves, or with cloven
hoofs.

It occurred to me to google on "cloven sky" tonight to find the rest of
the lyrics (do you call words to carols 'lyrics'?)

I learned (I think) that 'cloven sky' means dark sky split by rays of
dawn.

I also found the phrase in George Herbert and in translations of Song of
Roland.

When I get an e-mailed reply to my customer service inquiry, inquiry made
this a.m. and reply received 7:30 PST, that means I'm probably being

Depends.  It's not strange to get an evening response from some of the
little Internet companies I know.  Craig Newmark himself once replied, very
quickly, to a spam complaint I sent to abuse@craigslist in the late
evening.  I know other companies that have support staff who work a split
shift, so they have coverage 6-10pm or so.

Aren't you PST?  It would depend on what time you made
the inquiry.

Quite "lyrical".

You'd be doing me a small personal favor if you sent an email with an
attachment (or two or three) to "attach@socialtext.com", to help test some
attachment-handling code I just finished.

If it works correctly, the email and attachments will be saved to my
server, and you won't see anything.  I'll delete everything in a few
days.  If you see a bounce, however, I'd like to know about it so I can fix it.

A large number of messages isn't as important as variety, especially old or
weird mailers or odd sorts of attachments.

Thanks in advance!

Pete

"Radical Ecstacy" is a REALLY GOOD title.  And, "'Radical Ecstasy,' which
is my big work still" is a pretty funny stretch of prose.

And how, exactly, does a huge agricultural conglomerate effect obesity in
America?

The ARF banquet went fine.  And various people complimented me on the
invocation afterwards -- sincere compliments, not the typical "nice
invocation" or "your invocation was good."  I called it a meditation,
saying at the beginning, "For the invocation I want to read a short,
anonymous meditation that seems fitting for the season."  I added "May
we" at the beginning and changed "thy" to "our" in "guarded in our speech."

Assuming that's not a typo, that's exactly the point. There was a
nutritionist on there, whose name I didn't catch, unfortunately, who

to know about agriculture, but that's where all of her research has
been, because agricultural interests control the food we are able to

I lay the current obesity epidemic at the foot of high fructose corn
syrup. And so, more or less, did Peter Jennings. ADM is the leading
producer of HFCS--I think they have a patent on it. In any case, they
have finagled large corn subsidies:  no other vegetable has a subsidy.

The example that PJ gave of how insidious this is is the movie
theater--when you buy popcorn, the container it comes in is more
expensive than the popcorn itself. The popcorn is cooked in subsidized
corn oil, drizzled with fake butter made from corn, and you drink soda
made with HFCS. He gave other examples--he introduced to the man who
is responsible for introducing HFCS into cranberry juice, for example.

It was clearly a biased piece, but it present a view of the food
industry that we don't often see. And he presented a vision of the
food industry fruits and vegetables would be subsidized so that it
would be easier for people to eat healthily. I'd say that PJ is
practicing fierce optimism, too, and I applaud him for it.

So, I'm almost done rebuilding my system. (I was reminded this morning
that I still need to re-install Microsoft Office.)

I think that what happened is that I got infected with some sort of
worm. My first clue to this was that Norton AV stopped running, and
even when I reinstalled it, it wouldn't run. Up till that time, Norton
had detected nothing, and I depend heavily on Norton. I have it
checking all my e-mail in and out, and I have it check my hard drives
once/day. Anyway, I decided to try McAffee, borrowed it from a friend,
installed the latest updates. McAffee detected nothing, but after a
while, McAffee stopped working, and I started losing other sorts of
functionality.

That's when I reformatted my hard drive and re-installed Windows. So
far, my system is running fine.

But what puzzles me is that AFAIK there was no widespread alert about
a worm disabling computers. How did it sneak past Norton to attack it,
and why was I the only one?

The container is more expensive than the coffee? I guess it depends on
the coffee.

Oh, I realize that, but I found his comment weird a couple of mornings later. I was out with Laszlo (I see everyone when I'm out with Laszlo), and he was at the bus stop with his daughter. And he said, "It's a shame you couldn't come on Saturday. It would have been good for you to meet some people."

Sounds innocent enough, but remember, he's the new one in the neighborhood. I already know people.

Yes.  Maybe if places use those Styrofoam cups it may not be true. I'm
talking about a "good" cup of coffee here, not McDonald's hot stuff.  A

No. Agricultural lobbyists control what food gets grown. A slightly
different point.

A few quick things, if you don't have,  get a free copy of Zone Alarm. It
has saved me a great deal. A worm can sneak by most anti-virus programs.
Also, I can't stress this enough, do the Microsoft updates when they issue
them. Blaster is still around and active. Updated Norton helps, I assume you
have it update daily.

I use Kerio--my e-mail program won't work with ZA.

Why? (In 25 words or less; I'm just looking for a generality.)

I keep thinking antibiotics and viruses...

I do do the Microsoft updates, and I have Norton update whenever there
is a new update. (There's no point in running it as often as I do if
you don't.

Thanks, Alec. I felt like I was doing the right things, which you've
confirmed, and this still happened.

Google is our friend! From
http://www.sallys-place.com/beverages/coffee/supermarket.htm

"First, let's dispel any question about the cost of coffee. One pound
of whole beans will make 40 six-ounce cups. If you bought the most
expensive specialty coffee at $12 a pound, you would be paying 30
cents for a cup of coffee."

So I guess it's not surprising that the cup costs more than the
coffee.

They grow extra-fattening food?  I would have thought it was how the food
was prepared that made it fattening.  Oils and added sugars and
stuff.  Please educate me.

I don't know Kerio. So I will not speak on that issue.

In essence. It pays them to grow food that gets subsidized, like the
ubiquitous corn, rather than to grow things that don't get subsidized.
PJ thinks that healthy food should get subsidized, rather than food
that provides no nutritional value.

Educate yourself: go to a supermarket and see how many prepared foods
you can find without some form of corn in them. Most people eat some
sort of prepared food at least several times/week. (It's often
cheaper to buy raw food, but much more time consuming. For example, if
I had to make potstickers every time I ate them, I would never eat
them. When I lived with Karsten, we used to make them quite often, and
that was great, but there were two of us. It's not fun for one
person.)

PJ did a lot of talking about marketing, too, and the role that plays.

It's another free software firewall; not as popular as Zone Alarm. I
don't like the interface as well as ZA, but I like my mailer a lot

I'm even worse off.  I don't even know what high fructose corn syrup is and
that it is grown.  I would have thought that most of the corn grown in this
country went to feed livestock.  What's the reason given for the
subsidy?  I know Jennings et al think it is given so that Americans can
grow obese.  But what reason does the government <claim> for the subsidy.

Hm. I could have sworn PJ said not. But according to
http://www.ncga.com/education/main/FAQ.html#primary, the National Corn
Growers Association, youse guys are right.

"Q. What's the primary use for corn?

A. Corn serves as a primary livestock feed source. More than half of
the crop puts meat on America's dinner table. A bushel of corn fed to
livestock produces 5.6 pounds of retail beef, 13 pounds of retail
pork, 19.6 pounds of chicken or 28 pounds of catfish."

[from the NYT]

"The shift from an agricultural-support system designed to discourage
overproduction to one that encourages it dates to the early 1970's -- to the
last time food prices in America climbed high enough to generate significant
political heat. That happened after news of Nixon's 1972 grain deal with the
Soviet Union broke, a disclosure that coincided with a spell of bad weather
in the farm belt. Commodity prices soared, and before long so did
supermarket prices for meat, milk, bread and other staple foods tied to the
cost of grain. Angry consumers took to the streets to protest food prices
and staged a nationwide meat boycott to protest the high cost of hamburger,
that American birthright. Recognizing the political peril, Nixon ordered his
secretary of agriculture, Earl (Rusty) Butz, to do whatever was necessary to
drive down the price of food.

Butz implored America's farmers to plant their fields ''fence row to fence
row'' and set about dismantling 40 years of farm policy designed to prevent
overproduction. He shuttered the ever-normal granary, dropped the target
price for grain and inaugurated a new subsidy system, which eventually
replaced nonrecourse loans with direct payments to farmers. The distinction
may sound technical, but in effect it was revolutionary. For instead of
lending farmers money so they could keep their grain off the market, the
government offered to simply cut them a check, freeing them to dump their
harvests on the market no matter what the price.

The new system achieved exactly what it was intended to: the price of food
hasn't been a political problem for the government since the Nixon era.
Commodity prices have steadily declined, and in the perverse logic of
agricultural economics, production has increased, as farmers struggle to
stay solvent. As you can imagine, the shift from supporting agricultural
prices to subsidizing much lower prices has been a boon to agribusiness
companies because it slashes the cost of their raw materials. That's why Big
Food, working with the farm-state Congressional delegations it lavishly
supports, consistently lobbies to maintain a farm policy geared to high
production and cheap grain. (It doesn't hurt that those lightly populated
farm states exert a disproportionate influence in Washington, since it takes
far fewer votes to elect a senator in Kansas than in California. That means
agribusiness can presumably ''buy'' a senator from one of these
underpopulated states for a fraction of what a big-state senator costs.)

But as we're beginning to recognize, our cheap-food farm policy comes at a
high price: first there's the $19 billion a year the government pays to keep
the whole system afloat; then there's the economic misery that the dumping
of cheap American grain inflicts on farmers in the developing world; and
finally there's the obesity epidemic at home -- which most researchers date
to the mid-70's, just when we switched to a farm policy consecrated to the
overproduction of grain. Since that time, farmers in the United States have
managed to produce 500 additional calories per person every day; each of us
is, heroically, managing to pack away about 200 of those extra calories per
day. Presumably the other 300 -- most of them in the form of surplus corn --
get dumped on overseas markets or turned into ethanol."

Here's the online version of the report:
http://abcnews.go.com/sections/WNT/Living/obesity_031208-1.html

One of the take-aways:

>Americans consume nearly three times more corn in the form of corn
>sweeteners than they do in every other form.
>
>"So what these subsidies do is to lower the cost of the ingredients that

>make those foods cheaper," said Nestle

ADM are also the folks who want to put subsidized corn-based ethanol in our
gas tanks.  Here's a piece from the anti-ADM-ethanol side:

Digestion spoiler.

I have discovered in the years following the introduction of Bt corn (the
kind of bioengineered corn most often found in human food) that I can't
eat corn.  Cornstarch seems okay in the amounts I ingest normally, and
HFCS and corn oil are also okay.  But grits, popcorn, polenta, fresh corn,
cornbread, etc. are all out -- they progress with unpleasant speed (an
hour or two, given sufficient liquids) through my digestive tract, leaving
me dehydrated, sore, tired and shivering.

I have bought some organic cornmeal in a bag that claims the corn is not
genetically modified.  One day soon I will make cornbread with it and see
what happens when I eat that.

If natural corn has the same effect, I'll probably never eat corn again,
since there are so few people with this sensitivity that nobody would
bother making corn without the troubling protein.  (My research in allergy
science journals says that we're not even sure what protein it is,
although there are a few candidates and we know the size of their
molecules, roughly.)

But if only Bt corn affects me, I'm going to be fairly happy.

Jodi's allergic to nuts and peanuts, so don't anyone send us Cracker Jack,
mmmkay?

Sounds as though he feels you need only meet the
people he thinks you should meet, as in "I should know
what's best for you".

No I don't.  Nor do I do the grocery shopping.  Give me a hint as to what

Bt corn is getting to be everywhere, in everything, so you may not be

Ho hum.  This sounds suspiciously like "Blame Game"
Chapter 36.  Americans are fat because the government
made them that way.  They pay agribusiness to
specialize in fattening foods and additives, as
opposed to healthy foods.  Corn is an insidious
vegetable.

Fat Americans are lulled into buying these fatty,
subsidized food products, by the advertising business.
 The government, on the QT, encourages companies to
hawk their fattening foods in all media forms.

Therefore, it is not the fault of the overweight
American that he is overweight.  It is the fault of
the government, the farming industry, the advertising
industry, the media, and God for allowing any of this
to start up in the first place.

I am one of those overweight Americans.  I'm glad to
know now, who to blame.

It certainly sounds evangelical.  Run for the hills as soon as someone

One of Mr. Butz's first moves was to declare that the
high prices of food were to be blamed on the poor
shopping habits if the American housewife.

Well, Clyde probably has only real food in his pantry, so if you don't
hang out in the supermarket looking at <interesting> products...
Anyway, most "juices" contain an abundance of HFCS, as well as
most sweetended soft drinks, breakfast cereals, breads, pretzels, salad dressings, peanut butter...

It certainly sounds evangelical.  Run for the hills as soon as someone
starts telling you what is "good for you".

Oil and added sugars fill food out and make it higher in calories and lower
in nutrients, but they are added to the prepared foods partly as filler
because they are cheaper than natural ingredients. They are cheaper because
corn oil and corn syrup come from <subsidized> corn, while other
potentially healthier ingredients receive no subsidy.

Thus, the subsidy for corn increases the likelihood that cheap easily
accessible foods which are brightly packaged and heavily marketed - hence
eaten in large quantities by unsuspecting customers - will be high in
calories and sugars which shorten the lifespan and decrease the health of
consumers.

Jennings et al think it is given because corporations like ADM lobby for

they lobby for it because they stand to make huge profits from it.

That's not necessarily true (not that I care enough to google for the
stats). It's possible that enough goes to feeding livestock to count
as "most"; but a very large share is also grown for processing for
thickeners (cornstarch), sweeteners (corn syrup) and oils (corn oil).

Here's a thought/dim memory - I bet the original argument for the subsidy
was that corn and beet sugar grown "at home" was better for American than
imported Cuban cane sugar, back in the Cold War.

Where is Doris? I wonder if she knows anyone who makes money from the
corn subsidy. I'm thinking that 'the little guy' is not really
supported by this subsidy.

I have read for years - predating Bt corn, and probably including stuff
 written in the 50's and maybe even the 30's - that many people are
 "addicted" to corn products in an "allergic" reaction that leaves them
 craving it even though they are unable to digest it. I have known a lot
 of older people who knew they were not good with corn products (eg my
 grandaddy); but I don't know how a person can tell they have a mild
 reaction  to corn now with it in so many products - it's like being
 allergic to water, almost - you could easily be sick and not know why.

But sugar's been subsidized for a lot longer

Well, if you have a spare tire around the middle, that
may not be as funny as you think. The additional sugar
in modern foods wears out the pancreas with insulin
overproduction, leading to earlier and more common
hyperinulinemia - the body is tired of being awash in
insulin, and stops using it properly (like when you
need more and more heroin to satisfy the craving). This
is the preliminary stage that precedes Adult Onset (Type
II) Diabetes for many people. If counting calories isn't
as helpful as counting carbs in keeping your weight
stable, and if you find that a strict protein-and-
(nonstarchy)veggies diet for 3 or 4 days lessens cravings,
you're probably insulin resistant. Thank you, ADM!

I'm not sure. The bigger subsidies in the 20's - 30's were for
tobacco and cotton. Cane might have been subsidized as well.
I have heard the history of subsidies, which had a close impact
on my family, but I haven't retained enough to spit it back
easily. I'll research if nobody else posts it first.

No.  No soft drinks in the house.  But I did find it in my Bran Buds
cereal.  The Total cereal just says "corn syrup".  But the Bran Buds is
high fructose.  I feel more with it now.

Relative to perhaps many, we don't have that many things that contain
HFCS.  I don't stock salad dressings and I make our bread.  Other than root
beer brewed here on the island, we very seldom have soft drinks in the
house.  I make my own pasta sauces.  Basically, we don't depend that much
on "prepared" foods---at least that's what I conclude from seeing the

I've gone looking.  My fruit juice is the diet kind, sweetened with
Splenda.  (I buy diet because that is the kind fortified with calcium.)  I
did find the high fructose in one of my two breakfast cereals.  The only
soft drink I regularly have is a microbrewery root beer whose label says
"pure cane sugar."   Clyde makes his own bread and salad dressing.  There
are no pretzels in the house at this time.  Jiff Creamy peanut butter
appears to be sweetened with just plain sugar.

But thanks for the interesting discussion.  The long quote seems to
indicate that subsidies were a way to make food cheap and cheap food has
made Americans fat.

You missed the point. It's the TYPE of cheap food that has made
Americans fat. If cucumbers were as ubiquitous as corn, Americans
would not be as fat as they are.

After I got in trouble for knitting in the office after hours one day
(not as a habit, mind you - I knitted at bus stops, and happened to
have it with me and be showing a cow-orker), my daughter had a series
of conversations with a group of women (my mother was the youngest at
 abt 70) who had learned to knit during the wars, and began to research
 the subject. As part of her research, she began to knit in while
waiting for things to happen, including during classes. She had the
teachers' permissions to knit during class; but she was widely harassed
for inappropriate, "rude" behavior by certain students. I have also been
told it's rude to knit during meetings of informal groups of women (eg
PTA, parent's circle), and also have been told by some that, while sitting
watching tv together is social and acceptable, knitting while sitting
watching tv is antisocial and deliberately rude.

Apart from observing attitudes toward handiwork shifting from approving to
disapproving, it's interesting to note that my daughter, who's pretty
distractible, found that knitting improved her concentration in classes.

Basically you appear to be paying attention to something else.

Perhaps.  But the quote from the NYTimes that Marie gave us did not, in my
reading, address that point.  I asked why subsidies and Marie answered with
that quote which explained how agricultural subsidies became widespread in
the '70s.  It did not, in my reading, make a distinction between what was
and wasn't subsidized.  In my mind, you and Jennings still have to prove
that subsidies are given preferentially to things that make Americans
fat.  Perhaps corn is simply easier to grow and harvest in America than
cucumbers are.  And that's why farmers plant it.

I've always had the time.  One of the biggest crocks is that cooking well

I find it silly that anyone would view knitting in public as rude behavior, though I don't doubt they do.  
 
I am currently working on the papers of a woman who was a long time activist in Syracuse. She used to knit at meetings all the time.  I remember thinking "lillian isn't paying attention" but then she would look up from what she was doing and make some comment that was so totally to the point (npi) that it was obvious she was more attentive than half the people there.  I have found, for myself, that doodling serves this purpose.  I view it as keeping the right half of my brain busy so the left brain can pay attention to the information being discussed.

After I got in trouble for knitting in the office after hours one day
(not as a habit, mind you - I knitted at bus stops, and happened to
have it with me and be showing a cow-orker), my daughter had a series
of conversations with a group of women (my mother was the youngest at
abt 70) who had learned to knit during the wars, and began to research
the subject. As part of her research, she began to knit in while
waiting for things to happen, including during classes. She had the
teachers' permissions to knit during class; but she was widely harassed
for inappropriate, "rude" behavior by certain students. I have also been
told it's rude to knit during meetings of informal groups of women (eg
PTA, parent's circle), and also have been told by some that, while sitting
watching tv together is social and acceptable, knitting while sitting
watching tv is antisocial and deliberately rude.

Apart from observing attitudes toward handiwork shifting from approving to
disapproving, it's interesting to note that my daughter, who's pretty
distractible, found that knitting improved her concentration in classes.

LOL. I've been going over to Nameless' to watch movies or sumo, and he
didn't say anything the first time I pulled out my knitting, but I
guess he might have been thinking that.

Here's a knitting question for you: When you're knitting socks
Continental and it's time to move onto the next needle, how do you
change needles with the yarn wrapped around your hand? When I knit
English, there's nothing in my left hand, so I pull it out and
reposition it.

You don't have to feed 10 people every night, either.

The cooking doesn't always take time, but the planning, buying, and

I don't know if I mentioned here that my son will be working as a Wilderness education Counselor for Eckerd Youth Alternatives
http://www.eckerd.org/index2.htm
 
 he just got his assignment and it will be to their camp in Boomer, North Carolina.  They're flying him down this weekend for an orientation session and around the first of the year he will report for three weeks of training.  It does my heart good to see him find what seems to be the perfect job for his skills and interests.

I find it odd when people knit during meetings. I guess because I'm
an incessant note-taker and I can't see how one can knit and take
notes at the same time. I also think it seems as if your attention is
divided, although I know that people who knit say they can knit and
dedicate their attention to a speaker at the same time. I know I can't,
I'm surely at least a little ADD.

Taking notes can be distracting; that's why we designate notetakers
for meetings. I don't see knitting as any more distracting than that.

That somebody on another list said that he/she rather suspected the

Thanks from me too. I probably would have heard it on Thursday, but I'm
happy to have the heads up so I can plan accordingly.

I drop the full needle, take the empty needle from my hand with my now
empty hand, and pick up the full needle with my wrapped hand. I use double
pointed needles or circular needles whenever I can, not just socks; but on
occasion I have lost a dp needle and had to continue with a pair of dps and
a pair of straights. In that instance, I do have to transfer stitches at
intervals.

Thank you, Theo, for drawing my attention to this important point:

It's true that many people have more weight with modern diet than they
might otherwise, and also true that there are many interrelated factors
behind the phenomenon, one of which is choices we make when hungry,
hurried, inattentive, ignorant of consequences, or hoping to avoid same.

But why have we all been phrasing this as "fault"? It doesn't matter what
the motives were behind various developments or who should have done what.
What matters is that this is yet another important reason to make changes
in how we personally live, shop, etc, if we wish for different consequences.

All the responsibility for making things better is in the present and the
future.

        I don't find that surprising.  I often give manipulatives to
students who are very distractable -- doing something with
their hands keeps them focused.

ADD probably doesn't have as much to do with whether or not knitting helps,
as the habit or preference for remembering that which you write better than
that which you hear. In her case, notetaking isn't helpful; she has a
neurological lapse whenever she tries to write and pay attention at the
same time, so knitting, which is a learned schema with little attention,
helps. Of course, a beginning knitter frowning over each stitch will derive
less benefit than a practiced one....

Nor do a helluva lot of other people who complain about not having enough
time to cook.

That's Super Grand Economy Size Crock #2.  And I don't know where you
learned, but planning (i.e., thinking), buying (i.e., shopping), and
preparation are all part of cooking well.

I have dealt with them and only have had positive, fast experiences. They have many things I can't get at my local CVS. And Tazo teas.

        OK, here's Crock #3.  Some of us simply don't give a shit.
No, really.  It's nice to eat well (and you're a fantastic
cook), but thinking about food is really, really boring for
me.  You would probably find poring over cavaletti designs a
big yawn, well that's a crock!  You'd have much better
abdominals if you actually *did* some cavaletti exercises
now and then, buster!  Not to mention a firmer ass.  No
excuses now!

        Iow, when people say they have no time, they mean they don't
have enough interest to devote what time they have to the task.

        Bonnie's the one in the cat's seat here.

Thanks!  I will proceed.  Now I'm wondering, though, if I should
consider this one instead:

http://tinyurl.com/yoc4

My feet and elbows aren't a big problem, though.  I find that hand
lotion keeps my heels reasonably happy, and I've never noticed my
elbows.  So maybe I should just stick with the first one -- the one
Karen sent the url for.

1) experience. 2) knowledge of ingredients 3) organizational skills
4) income 5) time to plan 6) time to prepare 7) time to clean up 8)
resources (eg access to the tools).

If you have 1-3, it's relatively easy to make the time to cook. If you
 don't, you must make messes, go out again for forgotten ingredients, throw
 things away because they're inedible or spoiled without being used, try to
 throw things together at the last minute because you <meant> to shop or
 got the wrong things, on and on. What a surprise if they choose the
 "expert in a box" over yet another probably disaster!

You are blessed. Live with it, and don't be judgmental about those with
 lesser gifts!

At drugstore.com?  Maybe I should wait.  Hmm.  Does Wmart sell things

Bonnie! I'm betting you meant to write "affect", but "effect" is
actually the perfect word in this case.

I thought about it and decided, in this case, either would do.  I used
effect in my sentence to mean "brings about".

>(And for extra marks, "affect" as a noun means...?)

One has a certain style, an attitude, a way of holding oneself, an affect.

O.K., a language-related question here:

Is "cat's seat" the St. Louis (or Boston)
expression?

"Cat bird seat" is the one I know of.

Neither of which makes any sense to me...

I assumed that she meant "effect."  It seems, as you say, a perfectly
logical word for the context.

It's a term used in psych -- means something like emotional state.

Thanks.  Maybe I'll check WM.  I needed to go there today, for grocery
shopping, but the icy blasts were really eating into me.  I had to be
out in the winter nastiness on campus and just couldn't bring myself to

I skipped hurriedly through that discussion, not paying very much
attention.  I did get the idea that it was anti-corn, but I don't really
know why.  I like corn and have never thought of it as unhealthful.

No, Rita, thats NOT a crock.  What IS a crock is people who adhere to your
#3 but offer #s 1 and 2 as feeble excuses.

I still could eat better, i.e., healthier, than I do.  I could be in a lot
better physical shape.  No question.  The difference is that I don't blame
some outside influence for my own weaknesses nor do I try to set myself up
as some unwitting victim of Big <whatever>.

Nonsense.  I grew up helping run a family business that most years was
precarious at best.  My mother handled the retail end in addition to
helping dad and I when we were working around the place.  In the tourist
season, our days generally ran from 6 a.m. to about 11 p.m.  Nonetheless,
there always were meals on the table (three times a day).  Gourmet,
nah.  Good-tasting, yes.  And she did very little more than the average
farm wife in those parts (where farming was a bit precarious as well).  It
simply takes the will.  I will grant you that there are some in this
country, unfortunately, who have damned little income and---as Rashmi
pointed out in a related discussion sometime past---very limited access to
"good" foodstuffs.

Nonetheless, for most, it is a choice, so spare me the knee-jerk liberal angst.

        Everywhere.  Walmart, Kmart, Sears, Dillards, you name it.
They're ubiquitous.  I guarantee they will be appearing on a
Walgreen's sign soon.  Unless you're looking for something
really special.

        I don't think you're ADD at all.  ADD is not a short
attention span or hyperactivity, you know.  It has become a
synonym for it, and the pharmaceutical companies would like
us all to be either ADD, believe an uncomfortable burp means
we have acid reflux, or sniffle enough to claim an allergy
to the air we breath, but it isn't so!  Sorry, pet peeve.  I
deal with enough *actual* ADD and ADHD...

        Sounds like a type of CAPD -- Central Auditory Processing
Disorder.  It's a description of symptoms more than a
diagnoses, but I have maybe 10 or so students with it this year.

        Yup.

        My freshmen this year, who are otherwise driving me insane,
are very, very good at picking out my little Bostonisms.
They're about done with sentence diagramming, so I think I'm
going to do a little linguistics unit with them just for
kicks, and because they're always very interested when I
explain some English bitchiness to them.

        BTW, I'm doing the last-minute grade scramble routine, too.
It's a lot different on the high school level, though.

It was anti-*subsidized corn*, not just corn.

What irritates me is all that corn being
squandered on things like animal feed and
sweeteners when it belongs in whiskey.

I've never cared much for corn, and definitely don't like popcorn.
I was very surprised to discover it here fit for human consumption, because
the Dutch only used it for cattlefood when I was growing up. Perhaps it's
changed by now? I dunno Theo

There is truly very little need to yip excitedly. However,
I do agree with the report; I can name 10 or more people
I personally know who have visibly lost weight in the
last two years. I also conjecture that women are leading
this change, and most of them used to be somewhat heavier
than their "hottest looking" weight. Your mileage may vary.
Moreover, I must state honestly that I do not believe "Harry
Balzer" to be a real name, although that does not damage my
credulity towards the report.

        Ha ;).  It's self-preservation, believe me.  This week I've
decided to completely disregard the advice of my student
teaching supervisor, who told me to quit pacing the front of
my room because students find it distracting.  They are
distracted -- by me -- not everything else.  There is
something to be said for the right distraction.

The nerdiness on this service has reached monstrous proportions.
If we don't watch out, we will be playing online scrabble or

can't keep up what with all the doings.

If anyone wants to see her obituary, look tomorrow at
http://www.masslive.com, click Paid Death Notices on the News+Biz menu, and
search for Mona Drude.

I agree. It's a matter of managing time in your mind
when you are doing something you love to do.  If I
organize well ahead of time, preparation goes quickly.
 And thinking about cooking is one of its joys.

I'm sorry, Adam. I remember my maternal grandma's death, but I didn't get to
go to the funeral, because it was in a different town, and I had to go to
school. Theo

Yes, it's called _Make Room! Make Room!_ by Harry

major overpopulation; it's been about 30 years since I

Well said and true.  So, in my mind, it is a waste of
time to falter around placing blame for every
misfortune or unpleasant thing in life.  My life is my
responsibility, not anyone else's.

Time to go learn about forensic linguistics on Court TV.

That doesn't obviate your responsibility to try to take care of the

There are several hand creams marketed under the No-Crack label - they are

Ah. I saw Billy Bob's character as loser first, drunkard next. Cranky

boring, hammy and repetitive.

This phrase puzzled me at fist when I moved to AL,
because I didn't know a catbird either, let alone
where his seat was.  As per my AL grown husband, the
catbird seeks the high points of birdland to spy on
all fowl doings.  So, I guess he has more knowledge,
and knowledge is power.

The left?

I tried this a couple of times, and while I'm not yet fluent, I
think I can manage it without looking any more like an idiot than I do
when I change needles with my other hand.

Me, too. I'm using a circular for a patchwork blanket I'm making.
Come to think of it, I don't own any straight needles.

Even if I made sweaters, I'd make them on circulars.

Aieeee! This would kill me.

Last year I lost a knitting needle on an airplane; I was forced to
continue on four needles instead of 5, and that was horrible. I guess
I am much more of a creature of habit than I look.

They probably have them already, in the form of pens, hair to twirl,

Manipulative - something that can be handled (manus).

Ah. I had deduced that the catbird, like the cuckoo,
laid its eggs in other nests. I must have been
thinking, on reflection, about the cowbird. My
inaccuracy led me to think that Bonnie was eating
worms not of her own catching. Silly, and wrong -
but fun to imagine.

And now I must come up with an explanation that
permits me to say that I, too, have been "puzzled
at fist". I wouldn't have attempted it just a few
days ago; but now that I have learned how one can
adapt to a new form of "7" and make it one's own,
I feel encouraged toward the effort.

Not much.  Corn on the cob started showing up in the markets here
maybe 5 years ago.  It's available canned or in a jar (but not
frozen) at the supermarket, and the popcorn is with the specialty
foreign items.  Microwave popcorn can sometimes be had, one
brand, buttered or not.

My current hot air popper got bought in Germany, because we never saw one
here.  We were using our old 110 v one on the transformer for the
longest time.  When we first got here we used to bring a big bowl
of popcorn to the Hacktic parties, and it was an immense hit.
There's a yearly computer conference that sells hardware, books,
computer stuff called the HCC dagen
(http://www5.hccnet.nl/hccdagen2003/index.html) where we'd sell
loose issues and subscriptions (and get spied on by spys) and we
made popcorn there too - that was great fun.

On the same theme, oatmeal can now sometimes be found at the
supermarket.

If what was grown and sold was field corn, a lot! When I was a kid, we would
sometimes pick field corn - a form of gleaning I think was my father's
reaction against always trying to set a good example after he went "into
orders". Field corn is chewy, and flavorless shifting to bitter aftertaste.
We called it "cow corn". A lot of country people ate it, though, when sweet
corn was too expensive or hard to find.

Ah.

When Patricia watched me knit English, she said that it's efficient
because it's like Contintental but with the other hand. I am beginning
to understand this, that it's the same with either hand. But for some
reason, it feels SO different with the other set of hands that I get
confused.

Not for a size 0 or 1 needle. I have skewers I use sometimes, but they
are way too splintery.

A quick interview with writer Michael Pollan about some of the problems
with corn overproduction in the US, and the some of the reasons it's hard
to switch (Christian Science Monitor, 2002-10-31):
http://www.csmonitor.com/2002/1031/p17s01-lihc.html

Two stats from that article which perhaps explain why corn is top of mind:

"Of 10,000 items in a typical grocery store, at least 2,500 use corn in
some form during production or processing."

"In the US, corn leads all other crops in value and volume of production --
more than double that of any other crop."

Some people call the difference 'throwing' and 'picking'--it has to do
with how you make the stitches.

The hand that has the yarn wrapped around it (to control tension).

more than notetaking, doesn't it?

He doesn't seem to mind it.  He seems downright indifferent to the elements.

What kind of field corn did you grow, for Pete's sake? Our was always
much more flavorful than the namby-pamby sweet corn that we also grew. I

Rita saying that I am in the catbird seat, with regard to Clyde's cooking,
doesn't make sense to me either.  I have no power.  I'm not in charge.  I
simply eat what is put before me.  I grant that I'm in an enviable,
favorable position in that I eat well without having to cook (much) or,
since retirement, shop.  But that's not what the catbird seat means.

Thanks, Pete!
And this reminds me abt the missed point of the nun's story. It was the 10K
items, and the high number of options after living a life of obedience and
relative simplicity that made her cry. I've heard of people from other
countries where the number of brands is more reasonable who have similar
reactions - feeling overwhelmed, sometimes wanting to puke.

The hand that holds the unknitted thread is the "wrapped" hand to Karen and me,
because she and I wind the thread around our fingers to help us control the
tension.

Continental - Dutch style knitting.
English = similar to American knitting in our earlier conversation.

*extremely explanatory mode* Some students may lack the imaganation to invent
their own manipulatives, or have been trained out of such habits by earlier,
repressive teachers. Rita keeps small objects on hand which she may hand to
a student to hold and <manipulate>, thereby not only planting the suggestion
but also giving permission to use up neurological overflow in a healthy
manner, thus aiding concentration.

Fine, if you think it will give you more than "things which can be handled".
Wouldn't you rather invite Rita to discuss what items have been effective
as manipulables in her class? That seems more to the point.

Different kinds of corn have different length growing seasons; Silver Queen
 and Silver King are two of the longest outside of field corn for silage.
 Commercial "corn on the cob" growers go for short growing times and high
 sugar content, because the sugars break down after picking; more sugar =
 longer time in the store before it becomes completely boring. Field corn,
btw, has a higher protein content.

It's becoming increasingly difficult to find Silver Queen, which ripens
from late Aug through Sept, in stores at all. Growers are anxious to be
first to get into the stores, and count on refrigeration rather than
staggered growing seasons to lengthen selling times. Same with apples.

LOL! It doesn't enlarge the circle at all; but it changes the configuration
from triangular (on three needles with one to knit onto) to squarish
(with 4+1), making it easier for fingers to get inside the opening.

It opens up the possibility of walk-by interest, makes it easier for
some newbies to find, and lessens the anxiety of those who fear their
 homes are less <charming>.

That's the point--for me, anyway. I find that I don't drop stitches or
make ladders with 5 needles. I'm toying with the idea of buying a 12"

Let me see if I can find an Elizabeth Zimmermann quote on using 5

(Actually, I just read Carolyn's explanation, and hers is spot on.)

Well, there's more room in the opening; that's what I think she meant.

Actually, I often use the opening to push most of the sock through
when I'm working towards the end of the foot and on the toe. That
would make it very cramped on 4 needles.

Yes. But you can find good apples more of the year than you used to be
able to. (One of my fond memories of Ithaca is all the different kinds
of apples you can buy. I don't think I've ever lived anywhere that
offered so many varieties.)

Thank you! I love Michael Pollan.

"The great beneficiaries are the processors that are using corn
domestically. We're subsidizing obesity. We're subsidizing the
food-safety problems associated with feedlot beef. It's an absolutely
irrational system. The people who worry about public health don't have
any control over agricultural subsidies. The USDA is not thinking
about public health."

Thank you - I seem to get the colds worse and worse. But tomorrow I fly to Hungary for two days of meetings - at a spa hotel near the Balaton lake, so I might get cured.

Both sides of my family were farmers (my parents were the first non-farmers)
and my grandfathers and great-grandfathers (I knew six of my eight
great-grandfathers until I was about seven) referred to "pig corn", "sweet
corn", and "maize".


I'm guessing by talking about "field corn", you're talking about the corn
grown for farm animals, picked via a corn picker, then stored in a silo?

I see.  Our stitch'n'bitch is by invitation only.  If we held it in a
public space in this small town, people could not speak openly for fear of
being overhead and ending up as the gossip-of-the-week.  Because our
stitch'n'bitch is made up of mostly Inn owners, they are used to their
houses being open to the public.  On the other hand, only one of the
present five members actually hosts her turn in the Inn.  We just made an
agreement today to spend no more than 20 minutes cleaning a house before
s'n'b and we moved it from one o'clock in the afternoon to nine o'clock in
the morning so that we can spend more than two or three hours together if
we so wish.

?  I'm not interested in post-xmas sales.  I'm interested in acquiring
one of these devices right now.  I got excited at the thought that I
might be able to find one locally.  But I don't really want a big $40
one.  I want a little one.  So I guess I'll go on and order it from
drugstore.com.

We don't have problems with being overheard. Very few people sit near
us, and we speak quietly when we are gossipping. But this is also an
evening event, which is different. The Friday afternoon event is much
smaller, and we have been concerned about being overheard.

Froogle found these results:  http://tinyurl.com/yu07 at $139, the next

Also, if you look at some of the naming, there's "Therabath Pro" as well,

I tried there a little while ago.  They had the same kind as Wmart --
the big ones.  It has occurred to me that I might be better off going on
and buying one of those big ones, though, since they also sell the
refills.  If I order an odd one from somewhere, I might have a problem
with refills.

I wonder why these are so expensive -- like what they do that the $40
ones at Wmart don't do.

We aren't that drugstore rich.  It created major excitement a year or so
ago when Walgreens came to town.  I did enjoy going in there this
afternoon since I've been there only a couple of times before.  I was
surprised to see that it even has food -- as in milk and frozen foods
and stuff.  I don't remember having noticed that in my earlier visits.
I love full-fledged drugstores of that kind.

        I don't.  I tend to use small toys like koosh balls,
beanbags, silly putty, etc.

        My students are in high school; your students are in college.
  I presume there's a difference there.  My job (in part) is
to help students with learning disabilities develop
strategies that enable them succeed in school.  If I've done
my job, their disabilities should be invisible to you. This
really isn't something you would have any need to worry
about.  Things like IEP meetings, psychiatric evaluations,
parent conferences, team meetings, etc. are not a part of
your professional world just as publish or perish is a not a
part of mine.

I think not. Indian corn is a tricolored corn grown primarily for

All I really know is that it had much more flavor and body than sweet
corn.

As a cracked hand sufferer as my father before me, I was interested in
these and finding myself at Wmart found this one: HoMedics
ParaSpaPlus Heat Therapy Paraffin Bath PAR-70 for $19.99. It can also be
found at drugstore.com

 I bought it for my Dad and felt the larger size might work better for him.
I think I'll put this on my Christmas list as well.

I've used most recommended hand creams including bag balm.  I prefer things
that don't have that greasy shiny look.

You're too young to have hand cracks!  Mine didn't start until I was
fifty or so.  But re hand creams, I did buy one today that I think may
help more than most do.  It was funny that there was a display at Wmart
when I was there looking at paraffin thingies of some kind of cream with
a test-tube -- hmm, that sounds weird -- I mean one tube of it available
for squirting upon yourself to test it.  So I did.  I realized by the
time I finished shopping that I liked it, so I went back and tossed a
tube of it into the buggy.  Lemme go look at its name.
...
It's Gold Bond Ultimate Healing Skin Therapy Lotion.

I loved tonight's Survivor.  Can't wait for Sunday to get here.

Yes, you're right.  I don't think it is for huuman

I think it is more skin type and lifestyle than age.  I do put lotion on
every time I wash my hands.

I'm not sure I've used that particular one, but Gold Bond didn't help.  I
was told the absolute best was to rub Crisco on my hands and then put
cotton gloves on and go to bed.  I haven't been quite desperate enough to
do this.

I never used hand cream.  I live in the frozen North.  I've never had
cracked hands.

Of course not.  How could you have regrets when you don't know what you are
missing?

I also loved tonight's show.  I have formulated two possible scenarios for
the final four, depending on who wins immunity in the next challenge.  But
in both scenarios good ole Johnny Fairplay with the faux dead Grandma
doesn't make it to the final two.  Also, interestingly, the supposed leak
about who was going to be the Ultimate Survivor involves someone who is
still alive on the show.

I'm still feeling good about this Gold Bond I bought today.  It's
probably not going to be a real answer, and this may be my imagination,
but it seems that one of the gaping holes in a finger is less gaping
after the application of this stuff.

No, I don't think I would want to wear gloves to bed, Crisco-laden or
otherwise.  At times I've thought that olive oil might help some,
though.  It's not that I've ever applied olive oil to my hands with that
intent.  But when I fry an egg, I put olive oil in the little skillet
and then rub it around with my hand.  I think that might do good things
to the hand.

The only way Lying Jon will be with us another week (or I guess I
shouldn't talk in weeks since we're about to zoom to a less-than-a-week
conclusion) is if he wins immunity.  I really don't think he's going to
make it to the final two, unless something quite strange happens.  Hmm.
  He might win immunity and thus get to the final three, and surely he
would be seen as an easy loser for the person who gets to choose the
final two-er.  So I guess he might make it.  I dunno.  It's an
interesting group.  I don't suppose you're going to tell us about the
leak.  I don't know that I want to know.

I'm pulling for Darrah, and it's not because she's from Mississippi.
It's because I don't like the other three.  Jon is obviously a
sleaze-bag.  Sandra has annoyed me in many ways since day one, and I
really, really thought it was tacky of her to talk about hiding their
equipment so they would suffer if she were voted off.  And Boyscout Lil
has not captured my support at any point.  So that leaves quiet Darrah,
the Mississippi redneck with her mortuary degree from Whatchamacallit
Junior College.

The only question in my mind is: who will Johnny Fairplay decide to take
the final three?  (And believe or not, I thought that even before your
time-zone spoiler about JF.)

It boggles my mind that the on-island survivors continue to trust JF, who
is transparently a lying weasel.  On the other hand, maybe they're just
saying that in their confessionals because they don't want to admit to the
camera that they're hoping to sit next to JF during the jury vote, assuming
that that will significantly increase their chances of taking the prize.
If so, they may again be making a mistake.  If I were JF and I made it into
the F2, I would play the "I played the game" card over and over, and it
just might work for him; while we as viewers know just what a scumbag he
is, the jury hasn't seen what we've seen, and JF is nothing if not a master
actor, a man who can, as the old Hollywood joke goes, fake sincerity
convincingly.

Theo,

You just don't get it!  Haven't you been following the
conversation at all?  Rita is helping these kids get better marks
by putting something into their hands.  They don't know how to
cope with being distracted and having to pay attention.  So that
is part of what Rita is teaching them.

With math, you can do all kinds of lesson based things with
manipulatives because you can measure them, or they fit together
like a tangram.  I like to think of this as science without the
mess.  With English class it's a little harder, which is why the
toys.

Get a No-Crack product, put that on at night, then put cotton gloves on.
It will make a difference.

Good. Now I will go to the OED. ("Of course"? I am certain that you are
capable of making up words - and that you have done so.)

Acc. to the OED, the noun is a post-WWII N. American Education term
used in the study of arithmetic. So you may have assisted in extending
its meaning.

"B. n. N. Amer. Educ. In teaching or learning arithmetic: a physical
object which may be manipulated to help demonstrate a concept or practise
an operation."

If Jon wins immunity, I think they will vote off Lil.  If one of the women
wins immunity, they will vote off Jon.  The final immunity will be one of
those endurance tests.  I doubt that either Jon or Sandra or Lil will win
that.  Darrah will.  She'll pick Sandra to go to the final two with her
over Jon or Lil.  Who the jury picks after that, I don't know.  Certainly
Sandra has made some enemies.  But remember that no one knows that she was
the one who threw away the fish after Rupert got voted off.    There are
lots of people from Sandra's original tribe who are on the jury.  They
might give her the million. Certainly Rupert and Christa would.

But they don't trust him anymore.  I could not believe that Burton looked
into the camera in his final farewell and tells Lil that he hopes she can
live with betraying their alliance.  He had just written down Lil's name
and betrayed her!!!!

Is that one good google search or one google search of any quality?

I've had ongoing discussons with several of their development teams
regarding problems I've discovered occasionally - in the specialized Google
"products" - and as a result, gotten access to some of the others.  One of
the things I've suggested (and it's under consideration) is when using
groups.google.com, to be able to specify or somehow make use of the # of
threads, making DejaGoogle a stronger research tool.  If people have posted
a single message (a thread == 1), ignore it because it was too silly or
obvious. The same would go for items with 200 threads - there's likely so
much drift it's not worth retrieving.

The immunity idol recalled was nothing.  It was just that Jeff made a
mistake in judging someone's correct completion of the immunity
challenge.  So Jeff took the idol back and the challenge continued.

The worst contestant ever is Jon.  In the episode that you missed they did
the visit-from-a-family-member reward challenge.  Jon had set it up before
he left home that a male friend of his would be the one who would be picked
for the visit to the Survivor set on his behalf.  He called this guy before
the show started and told him to whisper to Jon that his Grandma had died
while he was gone.  Jon said he needed all the advantage that he can get
and the sympathy vote would help.  Well, they pulled it off.  The rest of
the gang felt sorry for poor Jon having lost his Grandma and let him win
the reward.  Jon and friend, in a moment alone, spill the beans to the
camera that it is all a lie.  The rest of the survivors still think that
Jon lost his Grandma and feel sorry for him.

Jon and friend pulled it off quite well.  Each survivor got to hug the
loved one before the contest began.  When Jon hugged his friend he asked
"How's my Grandma?"   The guy said  "She died, Dude."  Jon fell apart in
tears.  Jeff asked why Jon had gone from happy to see his friend to
tears.  "Boo hoo hoo.  My grandma died!"

We are trying the alcohol based hand cleaner now.  The nurses like

It's not unlike the Children's Museum we have here in Indy - it's heavily
built around tactile experiences for kids - granted, adults have fun as
well, but the kids really get off on what's available to them.  There's a
dinosaur exhibit and they can have their own dig, etc.

I'm surprised at your extravagance! Get a No-Crack product, put that

I do the same with socks.  I rarely wear socks when I get home so the bottom
of each foot is very dry & thick.  If a crack occurs, it's very deep &
painful.  Softening them at night prevents that type of problem.  Now, there
will be a twist.  I've had a plantar's wart reappear. This is the third time
I've had it.  The first two were when I was 10 and 31. I told my
dermatologist on the latter one that if I'd tattooed a circle around the
first one, it would be in the same[1] location. He said that's not at all
unusual.  It'll be interesting to see how he deals with this one.  The last
time, he burned it out with several sessions of nitrogen.  This one is worse
than the one I get on the ball of my foot (under my big toe).  It has a
tendency to wrap around a nerve so my foot will tremor, or get so hot my
foot sweats like a bucket of water pouring over it.

I've heard|read (source unknown) if you are doing so that it's a good idea
to use something other than tap water because certain humidifiers and
vaporizers cause the impurities (mostly metals) to become airborne and
potentially hazardous over a long period of time.

Good to know and almost certain to be true. There's also the danger of
molds growing and becoming airborne. As we say at my house, ETIATES.

Interesting.  Jon is a slimeball (aside from this) but I must admit this
falls into the "outwit" category.  I'm surprised Rupert didn't get rid of
him when he had a chance. Not doing so may permit Jon to sit in the last
seat, potentially as the greater of two evils[1], hoping someone less so
would win.  Does anyone [else] know about his trick?  Perhaps those voted
off & in the jury?  If so, wouldn't it be a delicious question |statement in
the final vote?  I wonder how informed the jury is and how sequestered they
are.

But there were other Soylent colors weren't there? (e.g., Soylent Red)

I'm waiting (unfortunately) for someone to come out with a "'new'
interpretation" of:

[] Soylent Green
[] Capricorn One
[] The Andromeda Strain

They just "locked" Rollerball (2002) with schlock (they call it "over the
top")[1] for 25-30 years by seeing how low of a budget and find a writer on
their first script.

I can probably come up with other "classic" movies, but these are obvious
ones they'll go after.

[1] They've used similar techniques with "The Brady Bunch", "The Beverly
Hillbillies", and likely will with "Gilligan's Island".

> PLEASE, do not contract the flu.

They've been closing schools here in Indy. I don't know what percentage it
takes (varying from school corporation to corporation) but it's happening.

What's interesting (in a bad way) is to watch the news.  They've got a
"Visiting Nurse Service" which has been moving through the city from region
to region.  I think last night they announced yesterday's session was going
to be 6:00am-noon.  People were lining up at 3:30am with their kids to try
to ensure they'd been vaccinated. There were people who arrived at the
"official" opening time who were waiting so long they didn't get jabbed.
I've mentioned this (being there at the "official open" and missing) on
other days, but 3:30am ???

It seems like they almost need to ask the schools to take a census from the
students at registration time to see how many want the vaccine.

Yes.  What effects do manipulatives have on parents?

I bought one after getting home from Japan since I noticed that the wet heat
there meant no cracked fingers.  But I don't think the humidifier helped
much, and I got scared of all its warnings about giving yourself the
epizudics if you didn't change the filter often, etc. etc.  I think I still
have it somewhere in a closet.  I was thinking about it earlier today,
thinking about how maybe I'll pull it out and try it agaain if I can figure
out how to replace its filter.

I still like this hand cream also.  There may be hope.

I don't, however, like that I'm having to use webmail right now.  I detest
webmail.  But something is wrong with popmail and I can't get to
natalie@maynor.net mail directly.

had never intended to be honest and thus wouldn't have to live with guilt

You are kind!  But I think I am going to give a try to the humidifier and

I've found that it usually balances out with sales tax -- i.e., that what I
have to pay for shipping is about the same as what I'd have to pay in sales

How is a vaporizer different from a humidifier?  I saw a cute little thing
in Walgreens yesterday that was a vaporizer -- needs no filling.  But I

I noticed that Wmart and Wgreens had pretty much the same products
yesterday.  They both had a Hosomething brand that was cheaper than the
other brands.  I was suspicious of it.  They had different other brands that
were familiar -- one of them had Dr Scholls, the other some other well-known
brand.  About the same prices.  But neither of them had the hands-only ones.

I don't have the issue in front of me, but this week's tv guide had odds for

Interesting!  They didn't have one yesterday.  They had only the big ones --
the hand/feet kind.

I know where it is.  But thank you.:-)  Maybe I'll go check it out, although
I really hate the thought of going outside in the cold again.  I started
coughing yesterday, and about mid-day today my ears sort of closed up.  It
feels quite unpleasant.  Is this the sign of something like a cold or flu?

How will the producers get from four to one and have a reunion
show all in the space of two hours?  Bonnie, you're the resident
expert.

My favorite is Darrah; unlike Natalie, I am for her precisely
because she is backwoods Mississippi.  She hasn't had much camera
time until her recent trifecta in the immunity challenges (and
the dwindling pool of survivors too, of course).  It's as if the
show is somehow embarrassed by her drawl and the lack of drama in
her answers and her ho-hum participation in the various
intrigues.  She won't win, but I likes her much.

It didn't hit me until late in this current series that Jon has
an uncanny physical resemblance to our John Hannum; also, some of
his mannerisms.  But John H. had no perfidous streak in him like
this character.  Well, maybe it's more like mischief, and Hannum
definitely had that.

Some of the things the principals say to the camera, like the
menopause business and she's pretty good for someone fifty years
old, reek of being scripted, very poorly scripted.

Ways of talking:  I like Sandra's saucy one, and adored
Christa's.  Wish I could name both styles of speech, but can't.
There was never any follow-up on Sandra throwing away the fish,
and Christa taking the blame for it.  Maybe in the reunion
segment...

Both Wmart and Wgreens had plenty of the hands/feet ones when I went
shopping  yesterday -- the big ones.  What I'm looking for is the
hands-only size -- the kind Karen was talking about that her sister has.

What?  Do you think Burton thought that maybe Jon voted for him??!!  No
way.  There were three votes against Burton.  Thus it had to be the three
women.

Oh dear.  Yes, it's the sign of a cold.  I have it right now.  Sometimes
when I swallow I can feel it in my ears.  However, I don't feel all that
ill.  Just congested.  This is my fourth day of it.

They won't.  The final episode will be two hours long followed by an hour
long reunion show.

That didn't sound scripted to me at all.  When a 50-year-old woman can't
sleep at night, she might very likely wonder if it's stress or if it's
menopause.  When her legs and arms burn so that she has to put her feet in
the water, she might well wonder if it's some new and hideous form of hot
flashes.

I so rarely have colds that I don't recognize them very well.  And I
don't remember ever in my life having clogged, achy ears, going down my
neck toward where the sore throat lives.  And I feel shivery.  That's
why I don't want to go outside again today.  At least the wind isn't as
fierce as it was yesterday and the day before, but the day is still cold
and uncomfortable.

There's also one on tonight called "Together" -- about a commune in
Stockholm in the mid '70s.  It's on IFC, a channel that I really think
the DirecTV people erred on letting me keep since it's the only channel
I get that's grouped with the ones I don't get -- ones like Starz and
Flix and Sundance and stuff.  But I keep getting IFC.

Ugh.  The timing is good in that I turned in my last set of grades this
afternoon.  The semester is now OVER.  I've heard about drinking liquids
when having colds but didn't know they were supposed to be hot.  I do
have some herbal tea in my cabinet but was thinking more in terms of
something like bourbon and water.  I have it stuck in my head that
bourbon cures ills.  Or maybe I'm thinking of brandy.  Can't remember
now whether I have any brandy in my liquor cabinet.

I've often wondered about this.  How do you know when you have
pneumonia?  I mean when would one get worried enough to go to a doctor and
have her do pneumonia tests?

I think that's more of an excuse to keep liquor in the house during
prohibition or when teetotallers come to visit.

I actually should have said "clear" liquids; but I find that hot tea or
even coffee helps decongest me and makes it easier to breathe.

She couldn't stop coughing and her chest hurt when she breathed. I go
whenever I have prolonged coughing for several days with a rattle that
seems low in my chest - I have chronic bronchitis, so am at risk for
pneumonia. I collapsed a section of lung coughing once - that was not
fun.

Oh - and prolonged coughing with exhaustion beyond a normal cold
(over a week), especially with a fever.

That sounds very unpleasant.  I seldom cough.  I had a high school history
teacher who firmly believed that coughing was utterly unnecessary.  I've
learned differently in life.  A productive cough is a good
thing.  Nevertheless, I seem to have trained myself not to cough when I was
a junior in high school and almost never do.  Ms. Cougan was her name.  She
came from a family that so hated FDR they forbid their children to even
date anyone who favored FDR's policies.  Seemed odd then and seems odd now.

You have the option of adding "Vaporub" or other menthol yourself.
Cold fine water mist, not cold heat.

Stuff like menthol and eucalyptus leaves, I guess.  Meanwhile, I hope
Spencer doesn't say anything important to me tonight.  My ears are so
stopped up that I just barely heard the telephone ringing two feet from
me a little while ago.  I thought I was imagining it at first, put my
ear right on top of the phone, and ascertained that it was indeed ringing.

I just googled for it and found this description of how it works:

******************
The Vicks Waterless Vaporizer works by heat activating the soothing
Vicks menthol vapors in the scent pad and releasing them into the air.
No water is necessary, perfect for humid areas or when dry air is not a
problem.
******************
from:
http://www.drugstore.com/qxp85432_333181_sespider/vicks/waterless_vaporizer.htm

What's its point if its perfect for humid areas or when dry air is not a
problem?  I thought the whole point was about dry air.

Some people only use a vaporizer when they are congested.

Yes, at home we run one quite often, although it isn't running right now.
Quite often a vaporizer runs upstairs while we are sleeping.  My father has
run a humidifier for a few years, but with no noticeable loss in hand
cracking.

For me it is an overall skin condition.  It is not unusual in winter for me
to have skin so itchy I want to crawl out of it. I have to be careful what
types of soaps I use so they don't dry me out. I find many of the
moisturizing soaps have lots of fragrance in them that bothers me.  Some
soaps and lotions will actually make my eyes water.

Yes, I have successfully used the one with liquid starch and glue in a 1:1
ratio.  I've never tried the Borax, water and glue one but believe that one
was used at the kid's school fair.

Not that it probably is of great interest in this country, but I visited a

Some mouthful, huh? The members of the board made a lot of fun with it; we

Not everyone knows; I had a boss who landed in the hospital with double
pneumonia after being sick for three weeks. He was yellowskinned and
could barely stand, but it hadn't occurred to him that he might be having
trouble breathing.

Yep, I've had those a couple of times. There may also be some other labwork.

When I had pneumonia, I happened to read a book called "Autobiography
of a Face" in which the author talked about trying to give herself
pneumonia so she wouldn't have to have chemotherapy (for bone cancer
in her jaw). She would fill the bathtub, and immerse her face in it,
trying to inhale the water.

I cannot imagine the feelings that led her to do this.

Actually, if you haven't read this book, I highly recommend it. This
particular thing is only a small part of the book.

I can't discuss it because I have no memory of the other worst things.  In
fact, I will forget this in the next 60 seconds.   You know how you can
erase an ETCH-A-SKETCH so fast and so satisfyingly blank?  Well, my so
called memory dumps stuff that's really really bad, really fast.  God
knows where it goes.

        Theo doesn't understand any experience that doesn't directly
correlate with her own.  She's incapable of any sort of

That's what YOU think! I'm perfectly capable of understanding anything that
doesn't relate to my experiences.Just because this country has a miserable

Well, your memory is wrong. She probably wouldn't have had to lug that oxygen

Amalia is what they will call her.  I don't know why the Catharina

grandmother, Carmen is her maternal grandmother, and if I recall
what the prince said correctly, "Victoria means victory".

        About a half dozen districts in my area have cancelled
classes because of the flu (funding from the state is
determined in part by attendence, and flu outbreaks can be
bad for the bottom line).  I've had a lot of kids out the
past couple of weeks, which is bad timing since we're doing
our major research paper right now, but what can you do.
I'm still holding on, knock on wood.

There are some people with whom it is simply not possible to have a
rational discussion; with a little experience, it becomes relatively easy
to tell who they are.  A word to the wise.

Red Roof Inn shows $46.99 per night

Hampton Inn is $62.00

The English Inn is $85 or $150 for two nights.

Planning ahead.  I haven't checked flights yet.  Ken, can you put in your
vacation time?  I really miss you at these things.

There was indeed a paraffin thingy at the photography counter in
Walgreens being held for Alec.  Problem was that it wasn't a little one
-- it was the hand/foot size.  I told the nice young woman the story and
told her she could put it back on the shelf.  I went there this morning
in search of snot medicine.  It was a big decision of whether to go
outside in the totally disgusting weather -- cold rain -- or stay inside
and wallow in snot.  I decided that I couldn't stand the snot and the
stuffed, aching ears another minute, so I did head out into the cold
rain.  (I had used up some old snot medicine that I'd found in my
bathroom with an expiration date in the early '90s.)  There are sure
lots of cold products on the shelves.  Since I couldn't decide what I
had, I looked for something more general -- not something that specified
head cold or chest cold or flu.  I got Robitussin(sp?), a name that I've
heard somewhere in my life, probably a tv ad.  I got it because it said
for "colds and flu" -- nothing narrow.  I would've gotten Comtrex
because I remember discovering it years ago when I had a cold and
finding it worked great, but it has become too specialized -- I didn't
know what kind of Comtrex to buy.  Anyway, I'm back in my warm house,
where I plan to stay.  No more ventures out into the rain.  I also
bought some ear drops but am not sure they're doing anything.

My toilet has quit flushing.  I discovered the plastic thing that lifts
the little lid is broken.  I tried a few minutes ago replacing it with a
piece of wire.  It will now flush, but it won't stop flushing -- it will
open the lid but won't close it.  I'm going to live with it for now.  I
just can't get into plumbing right now.

ARgh. My sympathies. I hate when my house revolts when I'm sick or too
poor to fix it.

Sorry that you aren't feeling well, Natalie.  Stay in.  Force fluids and
please don't talk about snot anymore unless you are referring to
someone.  That was TMI.

Push the lid closed with your hand and it will stay.  You can deal with it
later.  If it's yellow, let it mellow.

So what are you leaning toward?  I'm not interested in The English Inn.
  Am weighing thoughts of the RRI and the HI.  I bet the HI has better
breakfast, though I may be wrong.  And I bet it's more likely to have
free net access in the lobby.

Let's go for the Red Roof and stay an extra day. I just looked at prices.
We can eat breakfast at Rita's before we go out on the river.  Are you driving?

Yes, pushing it closed works fine, but it also works fine to use the
other bathroom, though it is a very cold bathroom, being on the north
end of the house and without any heating vents.  I may leave the toilet
broken and go on and buy all new fixtures for that bathroom, which is
something I've been meaning to do anyway.  The problem is in finding
somebody to install them.

Sounds good to me.  I noticed that the RRI welcomes dogs.  Maybe Spencer
should come.  I think not, though.  Yes, I'm driving.  I don't know
exactly how long it takes to drive from here to St. Louis but know it's
an easy drive.

Neither of my bathrooms have any vents at all. It's the only thing I
find truly insane about this house. Well, that and the fact that not
every room has ceiling fans.

Surely you could talk to the guy who did the work in your old
neighborhood?

I had noticed it when looking in Wmart -- and was suspicious of it
because it was about half the price of the other brands.  (It's not huge
-- it probably wouldn't hold an extremely large foot.  But it's
definitely the hand/foot size.)

And, when asked, Alyce said it wasn't all that hard to quit smoking once
she was on the oxygen.

You may think it's funny but it'snot.  (Sorry, couldn't help myself.)

Now that I have reliable wheels again (knock on wood), and my life seems to
be otherwise in order, I'm actually contemplating a road trip.  I've been
cooped up on this coast for far too long.

Yes, I've hired his people either on his time or moonlighting to do
various things.  In fact, this dinky little toilet that's now broken is
one he sent one of his people out to get for me at a discount place and
to come install.  And, of course, he's the one who did the total
remodeling of the bathroom at my other house, as in gutting it down to
bare boards and rebuilding everything.  But he likes working on things
in his neighborhood better than elsewhere.  And I'm thinking that I
would like to go to Lowe's and pick out my own stuff, but then I would
have to get the stuff here from Columbus.  I might explore the Lowe's
installation situation.  I've always assumed that they would charge a
fortune for coming to Starkville, but maybe not.  I could go there and
buy the three items and have them deliver them and install them.  But
then I also need to replace some tiles around the bathtub that are
scarred from where I took down the glass door.  And I might want new
floor.  Iow, I might want a total remodeling.

water count?

She always has so much leisure time on her hands that she would no doubt
love such an assignment.  I haven't checked the rates myself, but what

  (I've also found that group discounts are usually not as good as AARP
or gov't employee discounts.)

Are we gonna talk about basketball this year?  Do you get Fox Sports

FWIW, Natalie, I find that Dayquil works pretty well on
random cold symptoms, although I doubt there is really much
difference among all the brands.  I think the idea of lots
of liquids is to make the snot thinner.

I think it is so *cute* that Alec reserved the paraffin
thingie for you.  That made me smile.

We're having a little snowstorm.  We did go out to the barn,
but no lessons because Missourians are too afraid to drive
in the snow (we'll go tomorrow instead), so we just helped
feed and water all the critters.  Ana is outside with her
friends playing in the snow right now.  I really need to sit
and grade all those To Kill and Mockingbird papers and
Inferno exams.

Duh. It's the primary liquid.

        Spencer is welcome, but since Vinnie doesn't like other boys,
only one of them could be free at the same time.  I don't
mind crating Vinnie, and probably will need to anyway to
keep him out of everybody's lap at least part of the time
(he really, really loves people).

If I'm working, I can't take that much time off at once.

Well, I'm hoping for work!  If you're working, you could fly in for a long
week end.  :-)

Just one game for me today, the extravaganza in Detroit between
UKy and Michigan State.  But sure, we will watch and talk about
some  battles together this season.  And wait, as I always do,
for cwv's reasoned Down East observations.  Tonight, I think I
might tune in to It's A Wonderful Life on NBC; it has been a
while since I boo-hooed in front of the telly.

I do have a basketball question.  After last Saturday's Wooden
Classic, UKy 52 - UCLA 50, the local sports scribe wrote on
Sunday, "Yes, The OC can produce something genuinely ugly."  I've
been struggling with that initialism for the past week.  The only
context is our point guard getting seasoned by his collegiate
experience after three years of the wars.  So it must mean "The
Ol' College"?  Best I can come up with.

I think it's a reference to Orange County, per the TV show. But...
UCLA isn't in Orange County. So I think it was just a boo boo.

Ha! No. They are getting married in Savannah, and it is a HUGE deal.
This date was extremely difficult to arrive at, there are so many
people involved.

I just talked to RRI, and they have a modem hook-up in the
rooms, and coffee only in the lobby -- no breakfast.

Hampton offers breakfast and has internet access in their
rooms as well.

Both offer spectacular views of I-270 and Christian
Northwest Hospital.

There is a little cluster of fast-food places right there.
Also the imaging center where I get my lungs peeped at every
year.  I want to make sure Betty feels at home!

I'll have Kevin call this week to see about group/discount
rates if any are available.  He's better at that sort of
thing than I am.

But Arrowhead Pond, home of the Anaheim Ducks, is in Orange

I never heard this usage till the TV program started, but since then
I've noticed it in other sources that are unlikely to be influenced by
TV.

One might equally well ask "Why anything?"

I had an Alyce experience last night.  I went out to dinner
and to the St. Louis Symphony with Nancy, one of my
colleagues at the high school.  At the Symphony, we met up
with one of her former students, who works at the Webster
Bookstore.  I had no idea this bookstore existed, but it is
an old-fashioned indie bookstore where they recommend books
and chat, etc.  We had a lovely, wide-ranging conversation
about a bunch of this year's books. I promised I would stop
by to buy books.  Perhaps I'll drop off my Amazon wishlist
for them to order in for me..

Alyce was in the back of my mind the whole time.  She
probably would have enjoyed the Symphony, as well.  It was
beautiful.

Not sure breakfast is worth an additional $15 a night.  Thanks for

Hey, maybe I could stay and work for a while.  I often thought that it
would be a fun thing to do-work in different states or countries and stay
for a few months.  Nurses do it quite often.

I'm still looking at humming birds here.  Incredible!

It really would be fun bringing a dog to your dogland, but it will be
simpler for Spencer to stay at Furrbabies.

No breakfast at all?  That seems surprising.  I thought pretty much
every place these days offered at least some little something.  I bet,
though, that there is breakfast available nearby -- like maybe adjacent.

Neither mentioned net access in the lobby?  As in a computer sitting
there connected to the net?

I am impressed with your good work!

No.  Alyce did have pneumonia from time to time.  They did lung scans while
she had acute pneumonia and discovered the cancerous mass.  They
successfully treated the pneumonia but the cancer was too far gone to do
chemotherapy for which she was grateful.  She dreaded chemo.  They gave her
six months to live.  Her twin sons took turns coming to stay with her.  The
son who was with her for a long time on death watch joined words-l during
that time.  He told us stories about Alyce at night while she fitfully
slept.  We appreciated that a great deal.  And I think he appreciated
having us with him there while he did his grim duty.  She stayed home in
her farm house in the Hudson Valley to the very end.  She grew weaker and
slipped away from us.

It's possible, but even so, that has nothing to do with why Alyce was
on oxygen. Theo is, as usual, confused and making up stories.

I'm gonna talk basketball.  Mizzou just played a whale
of a game with Gonzaga.  Mizzou's coach is one of my
heart throbs.  I will watch MSU tonight.  Duke has
already lost one game.  It will be interesting to see
how NC does this year.  Natalie, if you have occasion
to go out again, try Thera-Flu.  It usually does
wonders for symptoms.

Easy and very good to consume - highly recommended; but many people won't
drink enough water. There are good reasons to vary beverages though:
- Hot fluids help sinuses drain, making it easier to breathe - hence,
they are comforting.
- Juices have lots of vitamins (if real), helping to fight
infection.
- Chicken Soup and other salty beverages provide electrolyte-balancing salts.

Not unless you want to.  And who knows -- I might have a laptop by then.
  I've pondered getting one.  I wonder whether I have to be in BellSouth
territory for my dial-up to work.  I know it works when traveling --
that's one of its points, though I've never used it.  But I don't know
whether it works everywhere or just in BS country.

I am having fond memories now of the years I took my laptop everywhere.
  I'm amused by these motels that talk about modem hookups in rooms.  I
never met a motel room that I couldn't crack the phone system of back in
those days of laptop carrying.  Usually it was easy -- just unplugging
the phone and plugging in the modem.  But sometimes it took major
surgery on the phone connection.  I'm finally out of the habit I used to
be in of looking immediately at the phone jack when entering a
motel/hotel room.

I don't remember that she said.  Was it Gene's brother they were
visiting in Arizona?  Seems to me they wouldn't stay all that long.  I
bet she'll resurface soon.

Speaking of snot, I have a snot question.  Cover your eyes, Betty.  If
the point of drinking liquids is to make snot thinner, I assume that
means that skinny snot is better than fat snot.  Why?  Or is that what a
cold is -- having your snot grow too fat?  I've been thinking about this
question the past several hours and just had to ask.

I don't have any.  And am not going out again into the elements.  I'm
also not finding eating appealing at all.  It's hard to shovel food in.
      I did shovel in some oatmeal this morning and a turkey sandwich at
noon -- had bought a little bag of turkey slices not long ago and was
glad to have it.  Tonight I think I'm going to eat cream cheese on
celery unless the celery is hopelessly wilted.  I've had it for several
weeks.

It really was so very good having Jeff with us at the end.  In addition
to his fascinating stories about Alyce and his being a generally
delightful person, I can't imagine how we would have managed if we had
not known what was happening -- had sat here knowing that Alyce was
dying but not knowing how far away from death she was and what her
situation was.  Jeff was wonderful.

I should go mess with my tv and see whether I really am going to see
that game.  It just occurred to me that DirecTV is weird -- that I'm
never sure which sports things I'm going to get.  I don't pay for those
extra sports channels and remember at least one time when I thought I
would be seeing a game that I didn't get to see.  But then I also
remember another time seeing one that I didn't think I would get to see.
  I don't understand the system at all.  It will take messing with the
menu.  And it may be that the messing will have to be done at the last
minute.

Thanks for the tip.  I think the Robowhatever is helping some.  I took
the first pair of pills about 10:30 and then started going really crazy
with ear-pain about 3:00, read the package, and saw that it was time for
more Robowhatever.  I took two more pills, and my ears aren't driving me
quite as crazy as they were, although I am still <conscious> of them.
How have I managed to live to be sixty without ever experiencing this
kind of <misery>?

Why would dehydration be likely?  Re flushing the bacteria away, I'm
happy to report that my klutzily-wired flusher worked when I tried it
again a little while ago.  I hope it continues to work since all this
liquid consumption will have me running to the bathroom all night, and
the one with the broken flusher is much closer than the cold little one.
  Then again, I guess I could just not flush it until morning.  But that
would make me feel worse -- just like my dirty house is making me feel
worse.  No matter how I feel tomorrow, I am going to do some
housecleaning because a dirty house damages my psyche, and psyches and
bodies are closely related.  The nasty rain outside isn't helping anything.

Alas and Alack.  I am the voice of woe.

Thank you.  I take it that mucus is the <proper> name for snot.  What is
phelgm?  Is it just another synonym, or is it something different?

God didn't make me one.  But if I did have one, should I have been
storing chicken soup in it the past sixty years on the chance that I

        Christmas music.  The Symphony played with a full gospel
choir and Ci Ci Wyman -- I'm sure that's not how to spell
her name.

I don't get Fox Sports and thus won't see the basketball game.  I'm glad to
know that I've got "It's a Wonderful Life" to fall back on since I'm in the
mood for tv.  I also stumbled upon the 1958 Miss America pageant while
messing with the tv.  It's on a channel called Trio.

Having a cold similar to yours, I'm also finding that food isn't very
appealing.  We were invited out to dinner last night.  There was way too
much food and way too much liquor.  Here's a not-exhaustive list:

Champagne with appetizers
Small, beautiful, home made pizza as appetizer
Crackers and melted brie thingy as appetizer
nuts

Wine with dinner
Roasted pork loin with lots of garlic
Two different veggie casseroles
Homemade sourdough bread

Single malt Scotch whiskey
chocolate covered strawberries
a homemade white and dark chocolate candy with broken candy cane sprinkles
an ice cream dish homemade with caramel and tangerines

With all that I still lost a pound of weight yesterday.  And yesterday
morning I made my traditional chocolate-covered nuts for Christmas
presents.  I did snack on both the nuts and the chocolate.

I don't understand the question.  Who is Suze Ormond?  One what?  And

        Yes, I used to know somebody who did that.  It seemed like an
interesting way to see the country.

        The number of hummingbirds in my yard increases by one or two
every summer.  I've watched whole flocks of them out in the
conservation area -- which I find astonishing.  I think they
generally show up around the beginning of July.

        I saw a great horned owl yesterday on my way home from work.
  It swooped down over the highway and settled in a tree.
That was really cool.  We have one in the neighborhood that
we hear hooting all the time, but I've only seen that one once.

As I've told you, it was associated with "words". I was a journalist before I
arrived in this country. And even if you don't have any respect for that
profession, I will not allow you to insult me. So now you know, and if Alyce died
of cancer, that's not what she told me from the beginning; and perhaps I DID

Why don't you try eating through a hole in your throat for a few months, and
going down to less than 80 pounds? And then your stomach shrinking so much
that you get a full feeling so quickly that you cannot regain a normal weight?
Speaking of "bitching"!

You can all go to hell, you know. Just because it "sounds logical",
doesn't mean it IS logical. Fyi I know exactly what I'm saying.
I'll stay away if it bothers you all that much, it won't bother me one bit. I
only joined because Alyce recommended this group, and asked me to. Yes, it
was Alyce. But you must stop these insults, because I know I don't deserve them,
and I won't put up with them.

I thought we got Fox Sports, but it's Sports South,
and there's a Vandy game on there.  We just watched "A

been making my mistake.  According to Sally, on
Christmas Eve, one leaves frozen broccoli out for
Santa.  And all this time I just thought I had been naughty.

I'm confused.  Why do you consider it insulting for somebody to ask what
your profession was before retirement, and why would you think Lynne
might have no respect for it?

Why do you think she owes me an apology?  I find many of Theo's postings
goofy, including that one, but it's certainly not the first time we've
had food discussions or medical discussions here, and Theo has reminded
us many times that she dislikes food and that she has had various
unpleasant medical experiences.

This round of what??  I think my brain must have died in the night.
Lots of things aren't making sense today.

> Speaking of "bitching," indeed and forsooth!

I wasn't sure how Theo meant "bitching" -- as in it was bitching fun for
her to be in that situation or it was worth bitching about or maybe she
saw my description of yesterday's food as my bitching (which strikes me
as weird since I didn't see anything particularly bitching about it --
though we were talking about food in relation to colds, iirc, what I ate
yesterday is quite normal Saturday fare for me -- nothing unusual,
nothing related to bitching).  As I said, I'm finding this discussion
confusing.

The toilet worked fine.  Maybe not really "fine" but ok, as in I have to
manipulate the flusher handle in a certain way to make it work, but it
does work.  Don't know whether I can hear the phone ring since I don't
think it has had any occasion to ring, but I do think I can hear better
than whenever it was that I barely heard the phone.  The ears continue
to be my main problem, though  -- daggers stabbing and stabbing and
stabbing and stabbing.  Have never experienced anything like this before.

I have, and it's darned uncomfortable. It's the eustachain tubes
getting blocked (sometimes it's just nasal passages getting blocked
during colds, sometimes both - sorry to be graphic, Natalie) If it's any
comfort, in my experience discomfort in ears is a sign that things
are going to get better soon.

Go to a doctor, Natalie. If your ears are stabbing, you may have an
ear infection, which is nothing to fool around with.

Does 'daggers stabbing and stabbing and stabbing and stabbing" sound
like 'discomfort' to you?!

This is not a normal symptom of a cold, or even a
virus.  Better see a Dr. tomorrow, your ears should
not be painful.

Did MSU win?  I couldn't find it in the paper.

Cut it in sticks and set it in a glass of cold water for a couple of hrs.

As a matter of fact, having a low appetite is one of the reasons dehydration
occurs when you're sick (there's water in most foods). If you don't have
broth, do you have bullion?

1) Eating and drinking less than usual due to feeling lousy.
2) Sneezing and coughing lots of water droplets out of the body
3) Digestive tract working less efficiently (or sometimes, much too

Lady, somehow I missed the ear pain symptom in the list. Get thee to a Dr.
or emergency room so they can determine if this is a bacterial infection.
If you have double ear infection (hence the pain), you need to take care of
it. Particularly if you are taking decongestants and it's not relieving the
pressure.

I was wishing last night Natalie lived just up the
road.  I had just fixed home-made soup, cornbread, and
peach cobbler.  She might have been able to eat a
little soup, anyway.

I don't know - intense ear pain often accompanies my colds. I don't
go see doctors when that happens but that's me.

That is a happy thought.  But the ear pain has been present since the
beginning.  Or maybe there was a cough first.  I think there was.  Maybe
the ear problem came the next day.  Anyway, it's definitely been the
major problem for the past several days.  Spencer is getting tired of
hearing me say out loud from time to time, including several times in
the middle of the night, "I CAN'T STAND THIS!!!!!!!!!"

I don't think I've ever tried making a spur-of-the-moment doctor's
appointment.  I don't know how easy it is to get in.  Will perhaps try
it since I really am thinking that I might just kill myself if the
ear-stabbing doesn't stop.

Yes.  I've forgotten the score, but it was respectable -- not just by a
point or two (though not a landslide either).

It was ok.  Not extremely fresh and crispy but not totally limp.

No.  Neither of those items is among the things I normally have on hand.
  The only time I would buy something like that would be if called for
in a recipe.  I do have chicken-flavored boullion granules -- just
thought about that.  That's because they're an ingredient in my "quick
pate spread" (one of my standard party foods).

The granules will work, but much better get some
medical advice.

No, Michigan State lost to Kentucky at Ford Field, on a platform
raised three feet off the Lions' gridiron, in front of 78,129
spectators, the new record.  I took heart from the 13 solid
minutes by UKy's seven-footer from Poland, Lukasz Obrzut.  I have
been teaching everybody how to pronounce his name, though a
simple "Woo" works fine.  :)

The news made me think of Torkel asking the list years ago, while
translating James Lee Burke's Heaven's Prisoners, what a spider
hole in Vietnam could be.

Encouraging as the news is, I hope this doesn't mean that
Survivor will be preempted tonight.

Repeat "I really am thinking that I might just kill myself if the
ear-stabbing doesn't stop." to them, please. That should make it
easier to get in. Ears aren't anything to fool with, being so close to

I was still hungry afterwards and ordered another delicious scone but it
was fun.

I met Sandra and the rest of our book club at Lovejoy's Tea Room in San
Francisco. She has shorter hair and looks great.  Working hard and unsure
of her love situation in Texas at this point. She says "Hi" to everyone.

We're going to read Da Vinci Code next.

I read this note right after it arrived and realized that I was in fact
going to kill myself if I couldn't stop the pain.  So I hopped in the
car and went to the emergency room, where I had to wait for four hours.
  Just got home.  The doctor agreed that this kind of thing is very
painful (I didn't mention suicide to him -- I was mainly thinking then
about how hungry Spencer must be getting), but he laughed at the part
about the brain and said he didn't think I needed to worry about brain
contamination.  Anyway, he wrote me three prescriptions, including one
for pain medicine to help me survive until the other medicines cure the
problem (upper respiratory something or other).  But guess what.  By
that time all the pharmacies were closed.  So I've got to hang on until
tomorrow.  I'm guzzling aspirin and hoping to survive.  Sickness sux big
time.

I'm back. What'd I miss?

It's been an exhausting 5 days. Thanks to those who backchanneled
condolences. Alec, it was so nice of you to sign the guest book in the
obituary. Is it tacky to post pictures of the flowers etc on the Web?

Those of you who *think* your funeral plans are prearranged, prepaid, and
all set, please make sure there's a price-increase insurance clause and that
exact instructions are left for how you want any service to be conducted. We
had to pay extra and wing it and it would have been so much easier had
Granny spelled out her desires a little more besides two particular songs
and a Psalm reading.

They usually have pharmacies open where the emergency rooms are.  No?

No.  Or at least not one open to the public.  Probably there's a
pharmaceutical department for in-patients.  They have in the ER office a
list of all the pharamcies in town with their hours.  At least that kept
me from having to run around all over town on the chance that there was
one open.

No.  There is a small pharmacy on Hospital Road, but it's not open on
Sundays at all.

Sometimes they will give you a couple of pills to get you started until
morning. Sorry that you have to wait. You should have asked about the
hospital pharmacy.

It's time to hit the brandy/bourbon, Natalie.  I hate it
when colds go to my ears.  I hope they wrote you for some
Codeine 3.  If not, you can always get painkillers on the
net according to the 27 pieces of spam I got today ;).

Intense pain is a message. Don't stand it. Go to the emergency room. There are
times not to be tough. A perforated eardrum is no joke.

The granules work great for this purpose - though
gatorade will also do. Salty liquids balance
electrolytes.

Please separate these two pieces of advice!

Don't drink if you're going to take codeine as well.

In spite of the dr. laughed abt ears being close to the brain,
I'm glad that you did go in. The three medicines will help.
In the meantime, decongestant, and a heating pad at your ears
actually may reduce the pain a little - in conjunction with
the aspirin, of course!

I have had earaches this bad before, and I am so sorry you
have one. It hurts like crazy!

Upper respiratory?  Daggers in ears??  Now is the time
to break out the booze, since you are not taking any
medications yet.  Every town should have a 24-hour
pharmacy.  Perhaps you can lose yourself in "Survivor".

Surprised that there are no comments, or surprised at who won?  It was too
early to make comments last night since I think it would be hard to make any
kind of comment re the final scenes without giving away things to west
coasters.  As for who won, I am not surprised.  I had decided she was likely
to win.  I'm not totally sorry about it.  Of the final three, I was for her.
But did the others ever find out about her childish behavior of throwing
away the fish and her plan of hiding things if she thought she was getting
kicked off?

There and back again. Actually it was a longer trip to and from Hévís than it usually is for me to New York. There were also some ambiguosity in the e-mail messages which had been sent out to tell us where to meet up. It was agreed that we should meet at the information desk beside the exit from customs control at the Ferihegy airport (Budapest). What nobody had considered was that there are three terminals and one of them is quite a few kilometers away from the other two - with no communication system except for taking a taxi. So for some hours there were two groups, one in each of the terminals which are withing walking distance of each other and one poor single person wayting in the old terminal. However, we managed to meet and not less important eat lunch before we went to the train station and our three hours train ride to Kelesthy - from there a minibus to Hévís.

Hévís lies by a thermic lake, and all the hotels offer cures etc. It was a little strange at first to see at all hours (at least between 8 AM and 8 PM) people sitting in the hotel cafe clothed in bathrobes. After we had checked in we went out for dinner at a restaurant which specialised on Hungarian food. Goose liver is filling. The goulash was just strong enough to be very good, also for my cold. The authenticity also included a band playing gipsy music, some of it very good.

The next day was very much work, but then fun: a combined wine tasting and dinner. The people who owned the restaurant also grew wine and bought wine from other producers and bottled and resold it, so they had a large selection. We tasted 10 wines before dinner - and the dinner was a lively affair with more wine.

Yesterday I was the first to leave - just after breakfast. That trip took me 15 hours, most of them on my way. I realised when I stood at the traind station with the ticket I had been given by the organizer of the meeting that there were no trains going to Budapest at the time my train should be leaving. The tickets to not give any real travel information although there was handwritten Budapest - Kelesthy and I had been told that it also said round trip. There were many words on the ticket but none of them gave me any meaning. Nor did the various time tables listed at the station. One of the ticket sellers spoke some German, and she told me where I would have to change trains, and I found a time table listing this train and at the correct time. But I have never felt as lost as here. In Hévís most people seemed to speak at least German because of all the German speaking visitors to the spas, but Kelesthy is a small rural town without that many tourists, I believe. Hungarian is so c
ompletely other that there is no help in anything. Even the way orthography represents phonetics makes it difficult at first to recognize loan words

The train ride was all together four hours - a slower train than the InterCity train we had taken the other way, and to add to my lostness this train went to another one of the four main stations in Budapest than the one we had startet from. I had been at the one we came to now in 1998 - I lost my mobile phone there and we ended up in the wrong kind of taxi, those which charged about ten times as much as the standard city taxis even if both used meters. So it was not with mixed feelings I recognized the station - it was with pure desperation. But luck struck: there was a minibus there - they function in a way similar to the sherut in Israel. They pick up passengers at different places and drive to the airport.

I checked in at the airport and whent through outgoing passport control. This is a much stricter affair than elsewhere in Europe, at least Western Europe, and there are overtones of the old communist days. When I finally had come through security and had bought some licuor to take home for Christmas with most of what I had left of forints, I realised that a) none of the cafes or restaurants would accept credit cards, b) there were no ATMs after I had passed passport control and security, and c) even if some of the places accepted foreign money none accepted Norwegian kroner. I hadn't eaten since breakfast, but I found I had enough forints to buy one pint of beer, which I did.

The plan left late, and when we were approaching Frankfurt we were place in a holding pattern because the storms had made them close one of the runways (I believe). Tthere are possibilities for crossing large distances between gates in Frankfurt, and since we came from a non-Schengen country we would obiviously dock into a gate in another area than where the plane to Oslo would leave - Norway is a Schengen-country even if we are non-EU. We landed at almost exactly the same time which had been given for latest boarding to Oslo. Alreadyquite a few of the other passengers had been told that they had had to be rebooked - mainly to the next day. But Oslo still seemed a possibility. I ran and ran and ran - and made it.

One positive thing though: I like the food served on Lufthansa flights, and they serve wine from ordinary bottles, and good wine at that.

Lucky back home with Ingjerd and our rabbit at 1 AM.

I am alive and optimistic, waiting for the Walmart pharmacy to open.
I'm about to call to ask what time it opens.  I haven't bothered to call
yet since I know it's later than this that it opens (the pharmacy -- the
store itself is always open).

My warmest wishes! My sprint at the Frankfurt airport yesterday had me coughing half the way to Oslo afterwards.

Yes, but how are you feeling?  It seems to me silly
that you go to the ER with an emergency, and emerge
with the same emergency situation.  The doctors should
had least have known what day it was.  Did you have a
hellacious night?

In 45 more minutes I can get the prescriptions filled.  I didn't even
have to talk to a human being to find out the Wmart pharmacy's hours.
All I had to do was hit 3 to get them.  The magic time is 9:00.

Meanwhile, the bricklayer was just here, and we've struck a deal which I
think is good, though my ears are too clogged for me to think very well.
  I don't think I mentioned the bricklayer before.  Somebody across the
street sent him when I admired his brick front steps and said I'd like
something like that.  He came by here Thursday or Friday and assessed
the situation.  Called me that night with a price.  I seemed surprised,
so he said he'd talk to his partner and maybe we could work something
out.  He called early this morning to find out my schedule today.  Then
he came by a little while ago and dropped the price.  I said yes, he
called Columbus Brick, I made out a check to Columbus Brick for the
correct amount, gave his truck-driver $20 for gas, and they set out for
Columbus to get the bricks.  When I get back from Wmart and p.o., I hope
to find them laying bricks.  I like this man.  Don't even know his name
yet but will find it out when I write him the check for the labor.  Will
keep his name handy in case I have future brick needs.  (These aren't
whole bricks -- they're those little flat pieces of brick that are used
to cover things like my ugly concrete steps.)

Indeed I made it through the night, though I think I was awake most of
the night.  The aspirin -- actually Tylenol -- seemed to help the pain,
and I took more Robitussin(sp?) for snot.  But I coughed all night.  And
(COVER YOUR EYES, BETTY -- THIS IS TMI) I had globs of eye-snot this
morning.  My ears right now aren't extremely painful (took more Tylenol
this morning) but feel that at any minute they're going to explode --
that they're full to the breaking point with whatever.  I also can't
figure out why I keep sweating.  (It isn't about fever.  I don't have
fever.  I don't own a thermometer, but my eyes tell me if I have fever.)

My thoughts exactly, although at least it meant that I was relieved of
an extra step this morning of trying to get an appointment with my
doctor.  I have no idea how that would have gone.

The night was not hellacious because I knew I had hope for morning and
Wmart.  I agree that the doctor was annoyingly ho-hum about pharmacy
hours.  When I asked him if there would be a place to get the
prescription filled that late, he said he thought some of the pharmacies
stayed open late.  I don't know whether he didn't know what day it was
or didn't know what town he was in.  I don't understand the ER doctor
situation except that I think they don't live in Starkville.  They float
through (one at a time -- never more than one there, but that's one more
than this ER used to have).

I'm glad they caught him.  I'm glad they were able the specific mission without a shot being fired.  It will be interesting to see what they do with him and what the longer term reaction will be.
 
When I was at the grocery store yesterday morning, I heard a couple of the employees discussing the news as they were stocking the shelves.  They were talking about how exciting it was that Bin Laden had been caught. They could just be stupid of course, but the one telling the news must have just heard it - so it causes me to wonder about how Saddam Hussein has become so equated with Bin Laden - as the supreme terrorist - that the distinction has been lost to many people.  It would be interesting to do a survey and see how many people think that the architect of 9/11 has now been put out of commission.

If they knew about her activities, then either they didn't discuss them or
it was edited out of what was shown to us.  I would have a hard time
believing they would 1) discuss it so little it would be easy to remove it
from the show without making the episode appear "choppy"; 2) keep her around
any longer than necessary.[1] As far as how it turned out, remember what
Jeff Probst pointed out near the end?  "Of the seven people who have won the
final immunity challenge and picked their final opponent, five have picked
incorrectly."  I disliked statistics in college enough that I recally didn't
care if I retained any of it so I don't know if there's a significant set of
data there.  But, there's got to be a problem with how people size up their
opponents.  Lil had the same problem in selecting Sandra which Colby had in
selecting Tina:  they're quiet, unknown factors who slip in under the radar
(although Tina even quieter than Sandra).  I think Jonny Fairplay just plain
scared Lil ("what if he is seen as a paragon of the game's motto?")  It
would be interesting to see Jon in the AllStar version along with others who
know his strategy.


[1] I've seen a puzzle which goes something along the lines of Survivor but
Survivor is a bit more fluid. If three duelers are standing on a triangle
and their shooting abilities are 25%, 60%, and 90%.  Each dueler fires one
bullet at one of the others simultaneously until one of them is hit and
dies. (and they are capable of changing targets on subsequent shots)  What
should the strategies be?  IIRC, the strategy for the 90% shooter should be
to go after the 25% shooter; i.e., eliminate the easiest target as soon as
possible.

As Goebbels put it---if you tell a big enough lie and repeat it often

It was discussed in the post-show reunion. Krista says they're "still buds". I liked that Krista, BTW. She was probably most likely to be my bud. Actually, I definitely would've fallen in with the Krista-Rupert-Sandra group. I'm glad Sandra won (especially given the final three). It's amazing that she never ever had a vote against her through the whole thing. Like she said, "Everyone always had bigger fish to fry."

Didn't Lill look even worse at the end than she did on the island?

Were those fish the ones Rupert caught? (Sorry, I couldn't resist)

Yes, which is very unusual.  As soon as the jury is in effect, the first
member usually comes back bright-eyed and bushy-tailed (and each member
subsequently).  A good shower, lots of water to drink, and they're ready to
go.  I think consuming water is the biggest difference.

Certainly not much better.  That pout on her face after the question and
answer period at the final tribal council was most unattractive.  The leak
of who was to win, many months ago, that stopped one outfit from taking any
further bets, did indeed name Sandra.  Now I see why.  It was pretty clear
after tribal council that the vote was going to go for Sandra and not for
the boy scout leader.

It seems that Jon leaked in the reunion show that he will be in the
all-star show.  It was fun to see Jon's very-much-alive Grandma.  Funny
that Jeff called to see if they could assist in any way after her "death"
and she answered the phone.  That also means that at the tribal council
after the grandma incident Jeff did indeed know that it was all a lie and
played along.  I wish Jeff would have asked the contestants if they didn't
know about the lie until they saw it on TV.  I was surprised that Krista
thought it was a good ploy and wished she would have thought of it
herself.  I still think it was pretty damn low.

I still maintain that someone on that staff was mightily pissed about the
black guy asking to be voted off.  I was somewhat surprised that they made
a point of it again when his torch was not allowed to join the others
before they lit the pirate ship ablaze.

I guess maybe he did although I didn't hear it like that. He said, "Maybe in an all-star show my grandpa will die."  ?

I couldn't tell if he said "an"  or "the".  I wonder why Jeff didn't tell
us at the end that it would be an all-star show debuting in February and
where it would be held.  Usually, they announce the location and do a
little visual promo of that area of the world.

I trust that's a joke -- that you aren't really wondering.  And this
reminds me that I watched Fox News in the ER waiting room yesterday (the
outer waiting room before I was moved to an inner room where I waited
more hours) and was fascinated by something somebody was saying.  I was
too earachy and generally screwed up to remember who was saying it, but
it was something about wondering what the anti-war people thought now
that it's clear Bush did the right thing.  Say, wha?  What was that
supposed to mean?  That the war was ok because Saddam was caught??  I'm
glad he was caught, for many reasons, but I don't see it as in any way
making this ridiculous war ok.

I will forever, btw, associate throbbing ears with Saddam's hairy face
on a screen with somebody poking around in his mouth.

I meant after the fact.  I think it's clear that nobody knew she was the
fish-tosser while they were still there.  And the other, even more
spiteful, thing was something that she never had occasion to do.

I had wondered about the timing.  Was last night's vote-count live?
Iow, did nobody know for absolute sure who the winner was until we all
knew?  I agree, though, that it was pretty clear who it would be, given
Lil's little rants.  But why would where Sandra's from be a clue (re the
betting)?  Do you think she was the leaker?  If so, is she going to have
to pay $5million to CBS?

Thanks.  I now have the real pain medicine, but I am holding off on
taking it unless the pain is unbearable.  Took another tylenol instead.
  I don't like that the pain medicine had a red sticker on its bottle
saying that it might cause dizziness.  I don't want to be dizzy.  I'm
mainly hoping that the other two medicines are going to work fast,
although I'm not optimistic since the one that's supposed to kill the
bacteria says that you might feel better after five days but that even
after that the medicine will keep working for a few more days.  (It's a
five-day plan.)  I want the clogged ears to GET UNCLOGGED RIGHT NOW.

Is this Zithromax? I have had it work very quickly--when it works.

Did you get some eardrops, as well?

They had to do this whether they were truly angry or not in order to
discourage future participants from crapping out in the middle of the
game.

Yes, the vote count was live, although Jeff and a few others may have taken
a peak weeks ago when the show wrapped.

The outfit that was taking bets discovered there was a preponderance of
bets placed for Sandra.  They investigated further and discovered that most
of those bets were coming from the same geographical area.  They matched
that area to Sandra's home or near her home.   I sure hope it wasn't Sandra
who leaked it.  I wonder if she had simply said "I did quite well." if that
would have been considered enough of a leak to invoke the penalty.

I think that's its name.  It starts with a Z.  Will go look.

Yes.  Zithromax.  Two pills today and then one pill a day for the next
four days.  And while I'm reporting, the congestion medicine is
Guiafenex, generic for Panimsit, and the pain medicine that I have not
yet used is Hydroco/Apap.

When it works?  Does it sometimes not work?

No.  What I wish I had right now is eye drops.  My right eye is getting
oozier and oozier and scratchier and scratchier.  My whole body is
falling apart.  Surely the eye is related to the rest of the crud,
though, and will be helped by these medicines.

The geographical thing certainly points toward her as the leaker.  But
if the actual winning didn't occur until last night, then it couldn't
have been a real leak of the winner.

What if most of the contestants crapped out? Would that do harm to the

Why is it shocking?  Is there something frightening about antibiotics?
I don't know much at all about medicines, but aren't they what one takes
to fight off infections?  I'm pretty sure that's what Spencer's ear
medicine was.  But the vet actually did a culture(?) of Spencer's ear
crud.  The ER doctor just took a casual glance into one of my ears.

But would they?  That seems highly unlikely to me.  And it might make
for a more interesting show among the non-quitters, though they'd have
to spread things out a bit.

I would think they peeked before then.  There was one series where there was
a helicopter sitting off-set and Jeff hopped on, only to be seen hopping off
of a chopper at the live set.  I don't think they would take any chances on
that pot getting dropped, burned in a crash, etc.  I think when everyone is
shepherded away from the tribal council area, the votes are counted and well
taken care of - even to the point of copying the handwriting lest a second
set be needed.

  I wonder exactly how many newspapers had the headline "we got him" this morning. It is a skill to be able to deliver the perfect headlineable or sound-biteable quote.
 
 It was driving me crazy yesterday that several of the common taters were saying that Saddam "looks like a homeless person"  I understand and appreciate the irony of the contrast between the once so lavish lifestyle and the rat in the hole.  What I don't appreciate is perpetuating the stereotype that homeless=dirty.  I have known quite a few homeless people over the years and they were perhaps even more careful about grooming than most people - at least partyly because they wanted not to be pegged by such sterotyping.

A year ago, I was profoundly deaf in my right ear from an infection which
popped up front nothing.  They asked if I used q-tips (I don't - I've got
stuff front my NE&T doc which smells like vinear and is not in the formulary
so someone has to mix it, and I can only use my index finger to apply it),
then flushed my ear out and gave me a Z-pak on my way out.  Because my pain
receptors are so far out of whack, they didn't want to give me anything for
the pain, despite the fact anything which increases any "regular|normal"
pain exacerbates my permanent pain. (e.g., I stepped onto the edge of a cast
iron doorstop the other night holding the office door open and it wasn't
flush, so I my food caught the edge of it and the top caught my the middle
of my tibia (the bone which finds coffee tables in the dark) where I'd
damaged the bone lining about eighteen years ago.  Holly wanted to x-ray it
(and still does). There's no bruising so I'm not worried.  I also remember
how difficult it was to explain other interesting little calcium deposits up
& down my tibia and ankle from previous injuries in college.  The resident
who saw the x-rays back then was freaked & got the attending who wasn't
freaked but rather curious & had never seen them before.  Now, FIFA requires
practically anyone playing a sanctioned game (even the 4-year-olds) to wear
shin guards because one could be nicked by a cleat and have blood
contamination.  I tried cleats once in college during a scrimmage. I think
they lasted about two minutes before I tossed them in the general direction
of our equipment - I don't even remember if I picked them up.

  They kept saying Saddam had been taken to an "undisclosed location"   All I could think was that he was going to meet with Cheney.

Time to play, "Bug the Doctor".  Ask the doc you just saw. If he|she won't
help, it's time for "I'd like a Second Opinion, please" (You don't have to
tell them that unless you want to).  Heck, you could go to one of the
MedExpress places - most of them are better than nothing. If you have the
ability to see a Nose, Ear, & Throat doc without a referral, then do it.
They can usually tell you what's wrong with your eye, even if they
can't|don't treat it (e.g., "just apply some Visine or contact solution")

You're the one not feeling well.  Unfortunately, the ball is in your court
to find the right doc which will help you get well.

It's interesting to see the new things injected.  "Only the clothes on your
back"[1] (+ local money + Rupert cleaning out the other raft); the Outcasts
(or OutKasts?), where Burton & Lill were resurrected from the dead and had a
lot to do with the game up to the end; an incredible lie by one of the
biggest weasels to play the game by the literal stated rules (who also made
it to the final three); a team playing lame so they could get a turn to boot
a teammate; a quitter; and Darrah was killed because she'd won three
immunity challenges in a row [2] and all of the final immunity challenges
(to date) have been stamina challenges - something where a lithe body such
as hers could easily outlast any of the other fifteen contestants, not just
the other two remaining.

[1] IIRC, it was said, "the contestants for the All-Star #1 Survivor were
all wearing three sets of clothing so as not to get burned ala Pearl
Islands."
[2] Being able to squeeze her hand down into the tube to get the key turned
out to be quite fortunate for her.  Had she not been able to do so, the
game's outcome would have changed considerably.

There are lots of public facilities.  With a little creativity and ingenuity...
 
You might be surprised.  Some of the most  "ordinary looking" people you see every day are, in fact, homeless.

Yes.  Although they aren't directly affecting the outcome of the show (or at
least, each three day episode), they can at least film & edit around the
clock to present a microcosm they want us to see in order to have
interesting trailers and keep the game interesting.  If people quit left &
right, the chemistry changes too often and I think they fear it would change
the chemistry way too much.  I realize the name of the show is "Survivor"
and those quitting aren't survivors - they're just saving the show time of
kicking them off.  In my eyes, they're detracting from the purpose of the
game.

I find this all fascinating.  What's a MedExpress place??  Re the doctor
who prescribed the medicines, that was the ER doctor working yesterday.
  I'm not about to go back there today, when regular doctors are in
business, and I doubt very much that the same ER doctor is working there
today anyway.  Re going to an ENT, why not go instead to my
opthalmologist since the question is about an eye?  And he is right here
in Starkville, as opposed to the ENT, who is in Columbus.  And he knows
me well since I go to him every few months to have my pressure checked
and since he and my brother were in med school together and I think
maybe did their residencies in ophthamology together.  I'm still
guessing, though, that this medicine that's supposed to be curing the
ear problem will also cure the eye problem.

There's nothing frightening about taking them but there is cause for alarm
for the volume prescribed, particularly when they aren't going to have as
much of an effect.

All to often, patients bug a doctor for an antibiotic and doctors cave in[1]
even though they know better[2].  As a result, there are many varieties of
bacteria which were easily cured even three to five years ago which are now
resistent and if you happen to get the right illness in the right part of
the world, it's you vs. bacteria - there's nothing the antibiotic can do for
you.  "Take two [aspirin] and call me in the morning" has been replaced with
"take two [antibiotics] and call me in two days."  Society is now clamoring
for anything in products which has "antibacterial" in the title (e.g., soap
and wipes) and these products are not far down the list of creating
resistent strains.  When cleaning, the purpose should be removing the
bacteria from the suface|object, not killing it.  Killing it plays right
into "suvival of the fittest" and you just end up with stronger bugs.

[1] "Ask your doctor about <???>"  That substance could be used for
deoderant, lice, etc.  But by not telling you what it's for, you're going to
ask your doctor for that substance every time.

[2] You'd be surprised how many times these situations come up in doctors'
meetings regarding what should|shouldn't be done and what's on|off the
formulary.

Re the quitter, I'm trying to remember now how that worked.  I remember
that Osten wanted to quit and that he was allowed to.  They didn't vote
at all, did they?  But if the tribe had wanted to vote, they could have,
right?  Iow, they could have forced Osten to stay.  Remember in the
previous Survivor when that chameleon wanted to quit until the boys
came?  Iirc, her tribe refused to vote her out when she wanted to be
voted out.

As annoying as I sometimes found Lil, I must admit that I did love it
last night when she outlasted Jon.

Re Darrah, I may run into her one of these days.  There was a little
blurb about her in the Jackson paper today, and it said that she's now
living in Ridgeland and studying to become a dental hygienist.
Ridgeland is a suburb of Jackson and is an area I normally spend time in
when I go to Jackson.  If I need to do mall-shopping, I always go to
Northpark Mall, which people normally say is "in Jackson" but which
technically is in Ridgeland.  I might bump into Darrah looking at purses
in McRae's.

It made for a rough morning. I knew I had to make sure I found all of my
newspapers before work. Otherwise, all of the souvenir hunters would grab
them just for the headlines and I'd be hunting all over for my regular
reading.

The person who had a baby in Walmart (the movie I watched most of a few
nights ago) seemed to do fine living there, at least until the baby
started coming.  She had sleeping bags to sleep on, alarm clocks to wake
  her up in plenty of time to pick up the sleeping bag, etc., exercise
equipment to stay in shape, music to listen to, and a restroom where she
managed to keep herself clean.

So what should this doctor yesterday have done instead?  Fwiw, I said
nothing at all to him about wanting an antibiotic.  All I said was that
my ears were driving me crazy.  I can't imagine having asked him for a
particular kind of medicine.  That's his field, not mine.

I just went outside to see what the bricklayers were doing and found
that they're getting close to being through.  I wish I had taken a
before picture of the ugly concrete steps!  Probably I can find them
somewhere in old pictures.  I just took these two in-progress pictures:

It came out in the pre-vote tribal council discussion with Jeff that Osten
wanted to leave.  Jeff did an informal poll of the tribe to see if they all
were willing to vote him out.  They nodded.  Jeff said there was no need
for a vote and asked Osten to bring his torch.  Jeff snuffed the torch and
told him to "go home."

event for her she asked them to take a look at her. No cause determined
and no indication of anything serious.

Tinnitus is ringing in the ears, caused by inflammation/damage
to the tiny cilia in the inner ear. Aspirin can also <cause>
tinnitus, as a side-effect of high doses; and so can some
antibiotics, exposure to loud noises, or high-pitched whines
as in those caused by electric motors at high decibels.

Double ear infections and an eye infection and severe ear pain for
several days - and he may well have seen something in a culture or
in the ears that told him it was a good call. It doesn't sound like
a cavalier action to me

Manufacturers are required to list any untoward
symptoms that have ever occurred during their testing
programs.  This does not mean you WILL be dizzy.  Take
the medicine, please.  The doctor would have warned
you about anything uncomfortable, or even lethal
effects.  He means for you to take the medications
TOGETHER.  Then you'll start feeling better - we hope.

A rare event for her?  Is it a sometimes event?  It does sound scary,
and I'm happy to hear that all seemed ok.

So it was basically Jeff's doing.  If they had gone on and voted him
off, as he asked them to, would it have been quitting?

No eye infection yesterday.  It has gradually developed today, starting
with the eye snot crusted on my eye when I woke up this morning.  Now
it's exuding tons of stuff and feeling very scratchy and looking red and
squinchy.

And no culture.  He just glanced in one ear with his little ear-glancing
device and then glanced in my mouth.

That's what I was thinking -- that it would be a good thing to take

But the pain pills are for pain, and, as long as I can suppress the pain
with tylenol, I see no point in taking something <heavier>.

Phil was naming options, but the base message, was, go have somebody
see the eye if it's oozing. Since you like your opthalmologist (though
I'm not all that sure that you didn't just say the word to see how many
ways we could mistype it), that would be fine.

Just a note - please be
careful to wash your hands after touching your face, and also wash your
bedding/ pillowcase in hot water w/ bleach. If you have an infectious
eye infection, you can spread it to the other eye, and/or reinfect this
eye once it gets well, through contact with that gunk.

Note also - not all oozing eyes are infectious; but the ones that are
 are a terrific pain in the neck because of this recurring tendency.

I think that is a very valid question.  If someone had not spilled the
beans to Jeff before the vote, then Osten would not have been labeled a
quitter by the powers-that-be.  And, in fact, this happened once
before.  It was the first or second edition of Survivor.  One of the older
guys on the tribe said he had had it and wouldn't mind being the next one
voted out.  I think he even asked for that.  But it wasn't mentioned in
council.  They just voted him off, per his request.

I've posed this before:

What do you call someone who finishes at the bottom of their class in med
school?
"Doctor"

Granted, there are plenty of doctors who know all of the information but
can't apply it and have bedside manners like robots - these are the ones you
want as diagnosticians - the true geeks & nerds in the medical community.
Anecdotal story:  When I was in college ca. early 80s, the software for
expert systems was nothing like it is today.  There was a program called
Caduceus which would pose questions for data and attempt to diagnose a
problem.  There were a couple of medical journals which would pose
challenges in the back like many newspapers and magazines have crossword
puzzles.  A good physician would be capable of diagnosing 35%-40% over time.
Caduceus could solve 80%-85%.  That's what you want in terms of diagnosing
real-life bafflers.  If something keeps eluding everyone and you know it
"just isn't right" and "time is of the essence"...it's time to find a good
diagnostician.

There are several questions I pose even when I've been seeing the same
doctor for something else - in your case I'll use the pain:

1) Based on the meds you know I'm taking (and I make sure they know what I'm
taking before they write a script), are there any interactions I need to
know about - they'll keep me awake, urinate funny colors[1], what foods I
shouldn't eat, etc.?
2) What types of symptoms should I be aware of to know I'm having an
interaction which needs to be attended to?
3) How soon should I notice a decrease in the pain [and how much of a
decrease]?
4) How soon should the pain go away [completely]?
5) At what point should I do something about the pain not diminishing? i.e.,
how long should I wait to act on the fact the pain doesn't diminish?
6) In regard to #4, how soon should I do something if the pain doesn't go
away?
7) With regard to any of these [problems], which should be followed up with
a visit to your office and which should I get to an ER?


[1] When given one of the meds I was taking as a trial earlier this ear @
Diamond, the PA (Physician's Assistant) turned to me and said, "don't be
alarmed, it'll turn your urine bright, fluorescent yellow."  This is a good
sign even though it's something most might consider silly. (lots of vitamins
& other substances will do this as well so I wouldn't have been worried but
I just listened)

Wall Street Journal: Top,right, above fold: "U.S. Troops Capture Saddam
Hussein"

Investor's Business Daily: Nothing. It's printed in time for the Monday
edition to be on the newsstands Saturday because there's no stock activity
over the weekend.

Chicago Tribune (Midwest Edition) "U.S. captures Saddam Hussein" in
lettering about four or five inches tall, above the fold.

Indianapolis Star (Sunday edition was already out; extra edition for $0.50,
6 pages with an overview of Saddam's bio): (red) "Extra" (1 inch letters)
"HUSSEIN CAPTURED" 2-inch letters: 'WE GOT HIM'

The Grey Lady (National Edition):  (1 inch letters) "HUSSEIN CAUGHT IN
MAKESHIFT HIDE-OUT; BUSH SAYS 'DARK ERA' FOR IRAQIS IS OVER"

Chicago Tribune (Midwest Edition): (2 inch letters) U.S. Captures Saddam
Hussein" (3/4 inch) "Hiding in hole, dictator taken without a shot."


The Indianapolis Star has a deadline of 10pm-Midnight - at least, that's
what it was before they moved to their new facility.  I don't think it's far
off of that.
I don't know where the USA Today is printed before making it to Indy.
The NYTimes rides a Greyhound from Chicago, and I'm reasonably certain the
Trib comes across I-74 from Urbana-Champaign

I've got CNN alerts routed to my cell phone.  They sent two out within about
fifteen seconds of each other ca. 05:30am Sunday.  It was said Saddam was
caught ca. 8-9pm Saturday, so if Iraq is Z+(3,4) and I'm at Z-5, he would
have been caught roughly 12:30pm.  That's seventeen hours for them to have
stayed quiet.  And with the embedded journalists, that must have been real,
real tough.

I was thinking earlier that I had a vague memory of somebody doing that.

:-)  I noticed that I misspelled it two different ways in the two times
I wrote it above (deleted now) -- leaving out each of the commonly
left-out letters (the first h and the first l) but not in the same
writing.  I really do know how to spell it, but I agree that it does not
flow easily from the fingers.

But when I said I found Phil's posting fascinating, I was talking mainly
about MedExpress.  I've never heard of that before.  Is it like these
quick-oil-change places?  I also was interested in what he said about an
ENT knowing about eyes -- as in why it would make more sense to go to an
ENT instead of an ophthalmologist (except that I do think the
nose/throat/ears are possibly the perps in this eye thing).  I bet here
on this list of <elders> I'm not the only person who remembers the old
days when eyes were tossed in with ears, noses, and throats.  By the
time I needed glasses, they had separated, but I remember people going
to eye-ear-nose-throat doctors.

I'm always a fairly frequent hand-washer.  The bedding thing could be a
problem, though, since I don't want to have to leap up and change the
pillowcase every time I turn my head the other way -- as in right eye
near pillow, then left eye near pillow.

If it's bad tomorrow, I will hie my eye to George Walker's office.  He's
good.

I am now trying it.  Took one a little while ago.  I decided why not --
I don't need to think or go anywhere tonight.  The bricklayers have been
paid and have departed, my messy house is simply not going to get
cleaned up right now, the reading matter I have piled up can wait.  I
may just turn on the electric teevee and find something to watch.  I
sometimes do that in motels.  (At home I normally don't turn it on
unless there's something in particular I am turning it on to watch.)
That recent night in Jackson I found two interesting things by doing
that -- one was that I happened upon the halftime of the SEC
championship fb game and got to watch a man thanking Jesus over and over
and over for letting him throw a football through a hole and get a bunch
of money.  I was embarrassed that he was identified as being from
Mississippi.  (I find it idiotic when people thank God or Jesus or
Whomever for things like throwing footballs through holes or for winning
games.  I kept wondering if Jesus really was there in Atlanta helping
that man win that money.)  Then I flipped the channel again and found
the middle of "Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil" and watched it
for a while.  What was interesting was that it was on a channel called
something like Turner South that has movies about the South.  I didn't
know about that channel.

But this is TMI.  Mainly I wanted to say that I have taken the dizzying
pain pill.

Isn't losing consciousness the same thing as fainting?  I take it they

The other thing to consider is the condition being treated.  If you have all
sorts of crud & buildup in your ear canal and you're treating it, that would
go a long way to explain imbalance & dizzyness.

I had that very thought yesterday, wondering why he would want to be
hanging out in an ER in Starkville on a Sunday afternoon instead of
having a regular practice.  I know that some ER doctors love it -- love
the excitement and variety.  But I don't think there's all that much
excitement and variety in our ER.

The screener before I saw the doctor asked me if I took any medications
and wrote them down.

Walmart's pharmacy hands out sheets with all kinds of details about
medicines.  It's not like the old days when you needed a PDR to get the
full scoop.

Heavens.  I can't imagine being that picky.  I did say to him, "Will
these medicines start working quickly?"  And he said, "The pain medicine
will."

This doctor doesn't have an office, afaik.  He hangs out in the ER.  I
would not go back to him if I had any problem.  I'd go to my regular
doctor.

        Make up your mind, Karen.  If she's in immediate danger of
brain infection, that doctor had better give her some Zithromax.

Alcohol is another factor as can a concussion, which I'm dealing with.
Biofeedback and acupuncture have the potential to work with tinnitus, but
neither helped me. I cannot handle being anywhere without sound.  If I lie
down for the evening, I have to have something to override the sound in my
ears.  It can also be loud enough to wake me up, just as my pain can
increase enough while I'm asleep to wake me up.


BTW, to make tinnitis something words-l interesting, talk to related folks
about how to pronounce it.

It would not be unusual to line up all of the doctors for a hospital, ask
them how to pronounce it and go through this (I'm not joking):

you: "Can you tell me about tin-eh-tus?" MD#1: "it's tin-eye-tus"
you: "Can you tell me about tin-eye-tus?" MD#2: "tin-eh-tus"
you: "Can you tell me about tin-eh-tus?" MD#3: "it's tin-eye-tus"
...
you: "Can you tell me about tin-eye-tus?" MD#n: "tin-eh-tus"
you: "Can you tell me about tin-eh-tus?" MD#n+1: "it's tin-eye-tus"

I don't know the fundamental reason for this but it's interesting (I think I
can rule out geography, at least, informally).  I've not tried this with
nurses but I wouldn't be surprised if it would be the same.

But we don't know what other finagling went on off-camera. Remember, they're
showing us what they want us to see.  There are three days for an immunity
challenge and three days for a treat challenge.  That's 6 days * 24 hours =
124 raw hours of taping.  Excluding commercials, Survivor airs roughly for
46 minutes (7 minutes/half-hour). That's 0.62% net.  They have a LOT of
material with to bend the events into whatever they want to show us.  Do you
think they just happen to talk spontaneously when the camera is on them,
away from everyone?  No, they're being interviewed.  "What did you think
about when Jon claimed his granny was dead?"  "If Osten wants to quit and
you know everyone else knows that, would you all vote him out?"  We don't
even see references to people running off into the woods to be alone as was
hinted in the first two series.

        My blood pressure medications cause tinnitus as a side
effect.  Pretty annoying.

That took place during one of the other series but during this series there
was someone they were getting tired of so they basically went into slo-mo to
lose so they'd go to tribal council and remove them.

I think you are wrong.  Each three days there is both a reward challenge
and an immunity challenge.  But you are right that they have many hours of
footage to distill into 46 minutes.  And 6 times 24 is 144.

Well, of course.

Huh?  I'm sure the interviewer would not use the word "claimed" and risk
spilling the beans to the others about things that are said only to the camera.

Are you talking about a TIA (Transient-Ischemic Attack)?

One could have several of those in a row and may not even realize it.

You never know.  I used to get tired of Spring.  Once late Spring came
along, people got Spring Fever and hit the water with their boats.  Then
boredom set in and they started drinking.  And if you think drinking &
driving is bad...think about the fact there are no roads out on the water.
Kosciusko county's population would double in the Summer when the "lakers"
came in.

You'd also be surprised how many ways people can find to hurt themselves
which after-the-fact look stupid but going into it it didn't seem so
silly...

Well, then switch it around.  I think you were reading between the lines a
bit too closely (unnecessarily).

My real point was that I'm just not that picky a patient.  I figure I'll
  find out how fast a medicine works, I know that Wmart's sheet will
tell me anything I might need to know about side-effects or whatever, etc.

I was loaned a copy of Frank Abignale's "Catch Me If You Can" with the
proviso I wouldn't do anything I read (I didn't know what it was at the
time) - I've only seen bits 'n pieces of the movie.  Acting as a doctor
would have been the easiest one - let all of the in-training people do the
work. In the book, that made everyone very, very happy.  I had a lot of free
time in high school.  I learned how to read EKGs very well.  I couldn't
officially diagnose (so I couldn't read my thoughts on the radio) but when
we got there, I knew what was wrong (if it was the heart).  I also memorized
chunks of the PDR (I told you I had a lot of spare time - books never went
home).  It was interesting when we'd be in the ER for awhile and they'd be
talking about what to give the poor soul and my mentor would look at me.  I
had to be real coy, but signal when it was contraindicated. I saved a few
lives.

I just threw that out for an example.

It could have been anything.

There's plenty of interesting information which I'm sure would spice it up a
bit which they filter out.  I think they keep it toned down for the purposes
of longevity of the show.

> I find this all fascinating.  What's a MedExpress place??  Re

They're off-hours medical offices which aren't ERs but have a staff to deal
with lesser problems.  The better ones keep a doctor on-staff 7x24 in order
to attract people to them.  I don't have an idea as to how large a city
would be to have these things - I don't see them much in the daytime - they
show up because of the neon lights at night.

If you don't have a regular doctor and don't want to go through the hassles
of the ER, you go to one of those places.  They have a bunch of different
names but the same principle.  I have no idea regarding legislation,
regulation, licensing, etc. -> I don't know what minimal type of staff they
have to have on-site.  e.g., my personal doctor's office has a Nurse
Practitioner and both my personal doctor's office and Diamond have
Physician's Assistants.  The NPs and PAs have been very helpful for me to
get into my doctor's office for something which doesn't actually require an
MD for a procedure or if they need to make a decision based on their
expertise as to what needs to be done.  IMO, there could be considerably
more NPs and PAs to help with health expenses (this is not to say we already
are short several hundred thousand nursing positions, some of this is
predictible).

Anyway, as far as the express facilities go, there is the chance you could
lapse in judgement and take someone there who is on death's doorstep when
they really need to be in an ER, but there's also the possibility an MD
could be there and then it becomes a race as to what the doc could do there
vs. a paramedic/emt crew could do in an ambulance racing to the er.

I can't think of anything clever this year for the itty
bitty gifts I give to some of the people I work with.  Agnes
did Christmas socks, which is an adorable idea since quite a
few of us sport sandals and socks on occasion (tomorrow
might be the only day warm enough to wear mine with my new
red cork sandals that I bought because they were made in
Greece).  And I need a little something for my student
assistant from Webster University who has been chasing down
students and grading papers for me a couple days a week.

Let me guess--n is an even number.

How so? Nurses didn't pass at the bottom of the class in med school.
For assume that they did; then you'd be calling them "doctor". The
contradiction in the syllogism reduces to an absurdity, thus
completing the demonstration.

        Maybe I can find some aromatherapy for *patience* (of which
we are all in short supply these days).

        When did angels become petite blondes, anyway?  Aren't angels
male?

Sweet, perspicacious Hog.  I type three words, and he

She's right, you know.  She did not read the label
correctly, Ms. Kay, because she's dizzy from the
Zithromax.

I have seen two horrendous boating tragedies caused by
drunk "lakers" when the drivers were not drinking.
Being around water while intoxicated is foolhardy and
potentially lethal.

Correct.  And I have thoroughly enjoyed the night, btw.  I ended up not
turning on tv but instead snuggling up on the couch corner with Spencer
beside me and loving the book Lynne sent me eons ago that I had had in
the to-read stack.  Actually, I had read a few pages of it shortly
before Thanksgiving, thinking I would have reading time Tgiving.  But
then something happened to Tgiving.  I can't remember what now.  It
vanished.  Anyway, the pill has not made me dizzy but has made me feel
wonderfully laid-back.  Content.  Not zipping off in a thousand
directions.  I don't mean I read the whole book tonight.  Even with two
eyes, I am a leisurely reader.  I don't like zooming through pleasure
reading.  And tonight only one eye was working.  I'm worried that
tomorrow I may be eyeless since a glob suddenly oozed out of the good
eye a little while ago.  Maybe the one that's been bad will be well by
tomorrow, and tomorrow can be the day for the next one.  In any case,
just wanted to report that I am glad I took the pill.  It took away the
ear pain and made me feel relaxed.

I wish we HAD an Emory's around here.  Maybe Rita C.

Yes.  She's from Liberty, MS -- southern part of the state.  But she has
now moved to Jackson (Greater Jackson -- technically she lives in
Ridgeland, according to the newspaper), where she is becoming a dental
hygienist.

Every year, I wish I had more Christmassy guest towels

This discussion point was not abt Zithromax, but abt a pain medication
that listed dizziness as a side-effect.

Yes, it is. And no, I don't know that they did. I wasn't there; but whatever
they said didn't alarm her, so I take it they didn't discuss TIAs with her.

In some small town hospitals, the Drs in town have to share in ER work in
order to gain hospital privileges. So some do it because it keeps the
hospital open, and because it gives them access to its facilities.

If the machine in question is using Windows 2000 or Windows XP, it is
relatively easy to give the child a separate logon with its own profile,
using permissions and local group policies.  However, "relatively" is the
key word here, and I couldn't even begin to attempt to provide a generic
set of directions through email.

If money isn't too tight, it might be worth investing in a copy of a
third-party security product such as Fortres ($59 for one license, $10 for
the CD, and $10 for shipping from www.fortres.com).

If the machine in question is running Windows ME or 98 or something
earlier, third-party software is probably the only way to do it.

No matter what the parents do, by the time the child is ten she will
0wnzzor that machine.  Computer security is better understood as a process
of buying time than a process of creating safety.

Oh, my mind must have been jarling back to the glory
days of words-l ... The golden age of stupid ambiguous
insinuation as a tool to repress self-doubt and boost
self-esteem.

I see that "computer security" is the new hip slang for "windows
security". Where did it originate?

Right--I suggested this, but was a bit embarrassed to do so because
it's so obvious and this woman is so smart and capable.

Thanks, I passed on the software rec and the last paragraph.:) I met
the kid at a party a couple of weeks ago and she is cute as a button,
but VERY curious, like her mom, so I think you're right.

        LOL.  Anyway, we boat on the river.  If you're zipping around
drunk, a sandbar or wing dam will get you pretty quick.  We
wouldn't be caught dead boating on Lake of the Ozarks, where
there are no Darwinian hazards to take out the worst drivers.

Dear, nostalgic Hog.  You have made a valiant effort.
I'm glad you are a traditionalist.  I feel a strange

Oh!  I stand corrected.  I thought Natalie said the
Zithromax made one dizzy.

Yes, it is a fine way to spend an evening.  What was especially nice
last night, though, was that my mind wasn't racing around making lists
of things I needed to do the next day, etc. etc.  I felt <calmer>.  Re
snuggling, Bernard was always a super-snuggler.  Spencer, otoh, came
into my life as a total non-snuggler.  I will forever wonder what went
on in his early life to make him do things like jump down from the couch
if I started to sit down on it, etc.  Gradually he has caught on that
all he has to do is move over if he's on the end by the lamp and I want
to read.  (I used to have to sit on Bernardykins to make him move over.
)  Now Spencer is a good couch-snuggler, though sometimes he won't let
me move my hand away from rubbing him in order to turn the page of the
book.  After a while he goes to sleep, though, and lets me do things
like turn pages without his protesting.  He still hasn't moved into
sleeping with me at night, which makes me sad.  I'm beginning to think
he never will.  Bernard would find Spencer's behavior in that respect
quite alien.

I am happy to report that I am not eyeless today, as I had feared I
might be.  It was interesting to watch my right eye (the first bad one)
get smaller and smaller and smaller during the night.  I would notice it
as I got up to go to the bathroom and looked in the bathroom mirror.  By
the time I got up this morning, it was totally sealed.  I started to
take a picture of it to show y'all a sealed eye, but I realized that the

I thought of things like that because I love special xmasy things of
that kind but don't usually buy them myself because, even though they're
not major purchases, I tell myself that it's silly to waste money on
something to use for a month or less once a year.  That's the kind of
thing that makes a good gift, imho -- something somebody would enjoy but
might not buy for herself.

I applaud your decision to go to the opthalmologist. It's clearly
 appropriate.

That's the way it used to work here except that no doctor stayed there.
  Nurses were there and would call whichever doctor was on call if a
doctor was needed.  That changed at some point, and now there's an ER
doctor there -- I guess around the clock, though I am not intimate
enough with the ER to be sure.  But the ER doctors are not regular
Starkville doctors.  Iow, they have no local practice.  (I use plural
because this man I saw Sunday was not the doctor who was there when my
mother died last year.  And it was still another back eight or ten years
ago when I took my smashed big toe there on a Sunday after having spent
Saturday night In Hell.  Y'all may remember that story -- of my dropping
the log on my bare foot in the carport, breaking the big toe in two
places, something like four days before leaving for Paris.)

I got curious yesterday about who this doctor was the other day and
looked at his name on the medicines, then looked in the telephone book,
which is for the whole Golden Triangle area -- Starkville, West Point,
Columbus, plus various other tiny towns.  He's not in it as a doctor.
It's possible he's in it as a <citizen>, but I couldn't be sure since
his name is too ordinary -- something like William Davis, of which there
were several in the various Golden Triangle towns.

No, it was the pain medicine.  But my ears were too stopped up for me to

That did cross my mind since I was pretty sure you were <onto Tushar>.

Probably not many people are reading this thread, though.  Though
Words-L subject-headers are notoriously unreliable, I have been watching
them the past couple of days, making sure that my snot and ooze and
misery postings are under appropriate headers since I am sure there are
many Wordslers who do not care to read about these matters.  Iow, I am
assuming that many people are hitting delete before reading the postings
in this thread -- which makes very good sense.  As we've discussed
before, that's why God created the delete key, and that's one of the
great things about Words-L.  We can involve ourselves in snot
discussions, or we can ignore them.

One of our runs involved a guy who was involved in a "boat + boat + lots of
alcohol = acccident" situation who managed to tread water for forty-five
minutes wearing a sweater, jeans, and hiking boots.  It turned out later he
had a broken arm.  One of my partners decided to try this out at the Y after
hours and didn't want everyone to try it at once as we had a good idea as to
what would happen.  Once the boots fill with water and the clothing is
soaked, it's very difficult to tread at all - meaning out came the hook to
rescue whomever sank to the bottom so someone else could try.

One of the few feats I've seen beyond that sort of thing was within the
previous five years or so when a Naval officer fell overboard in the Indian
Ocean and no one noticed.  It wasn't until they did a headcount later he
turned up missing.  Someone (natives?) else happened across him and provided
the rescue.  He had been in the water for over fifty hours.

With all of the training & testing I did, I can't believe they show people
movies|tv just jumping into the water with all of their clothes on for a
rescue.  You might as well peel off the pants & shoes - even in the Winter.
At least you'd have something dry to put back on.  Water's coefficent of
heat is four times that of air; i.e., water is capable withdrawing four
times as much heat as the same quantity as air. That's why in the cold rule
#1 is to "always stay dry".

It's not a math quiz so you can put your shoes back on.

What I'm pointing out is you could ask any number of docs at random and they
will say either of them; i.e., they have a specific pronounciation, but
doctors as a group do not; this, I find interesting.

Once again, you're reading too deeply into it.

As far as nurses go, I still prefer having them walk up if I was the first
one at an accident scene (and probably would today) than a physician.
Nurses see things daily a doctor might have seen once (if they were lucky)
during a quick rotation as a resident.

The other way they help is for people who have low|no insurance coverage.
If you go to the ER, you're helping to pay for all aspects of the facility.
For one of the express services, you could be  [paying for all aspects] as
well but there are fewer things to have to pay for.  I remember when we'd
get called to a section of town which was lower on the income totem pole.
Someone would need help[1] but not be able to pay for all of it or the ER +
anything else, so they'd call for an ambulance, get stabilized, then
determine whether they wanted to go to the ER, then decide whether they
wanted to be admitted or not.  Each of those levels cost less than the
entire ball of yarn so they were able to make choices along the way.  With a
single hospital, it wasn't like here in Indy where there are facilities for
those who cannot pay or who cannot afford to pay all of it, so there's a
sliding scale.  All of the other hospitals are required to admit them to the
ER, stabilize them, then determine whether they have [financial] coverage or
not.  If not, they are then transferred to one of the hospitals which can
then take care of them.

It occurred to me that I might find scoop on the ER doctor situation by
going to the hospital's webpage.  And I did.  There are two, one of whom
  gave me a WLM since he went to a <Masonic> med school.  He's not the
one I saw, though.  I saw the one who is not board certified.  Although
I realize that many good doctors practice forever without bothering to
get board certified, it still gives me pause.  (Also, I realize that,
unless the rules have changed, one cannot take the tests for board
certification until after practicing for several years, so maybe this
person hasn't had the opportunity yet -- is too young -- i.e., young in
the profession.)

Anyway, mine was the second of these two -- Bill Davis:

  Went to a med school that sounds <questionable>, as in not a
well-known private one and not a state one.

I'm having fun browsing the other stuff on the OCH website, like info on
all the doctors affiliated with it.  In doing so, I realize that my
ophthalmologist didn't do his residency with my RRB.  George Walker did
his in Memphis, my RRB in Birmingham.  I also noticed that the ENT from
Columbus lists a Starkville office address, but then I remembered that
he does practice in Starkville one day a week.  He's in Columbus the
rest of the time.  His father, by the way, was one of the old EENT
doctors, before eyes became detached from ENT.  And then he committed
suicide, though I don't think it was because of the detachment of eyes
from ENT.  I think maybe he had retired by then.  I remember his suicide
because one of his sons was a lecturer in our department at the time.
He had an odd combination of degrees -- BA English, MA Linguistics, PhD
Communication.  That's not the oddest of combinations, of course, but
the odd thing was that his main interest was in Computer Science.  They
moved here because his wife, who has a PhD in CS, got a job in the CS
department, and he became a Lecturer in our department.  (Actually, I
think we called them part-time, temporary instructors back then, not
lecturers, though they were usually full-time and it was the same
position that we now call lecturer.)  He later got a job in the
Computing Center and ultimately ended up teaching in the CS Department.
  His father was named Juicy, which always struck me as an interesting
name.  (I knew a good bit about the family because a colleague and good
friend of mine was a native of Columbus and talked about Columbus
families quite often.)

What I wrote above was, iirc, in response to what Clo said about small
towns sometimes having the regular doctors taking shifts in the ER.  Or
maybe it was in response to something said about this ER person's "office."

How could they have a local practice when they spend all their time working
the ER?  There is such a specialty in medicine as Emergency
Medicine.  Their whole job is working the ER.

There would be no need to have his name in the yellow pages because one
doesn't call him for an appointment.  He is merely part of the hospital staff.

Anyone besides me sending out Christmas cards this year?  I just addressed
twenty of them.  I wonder if it's a dying custom.  We are sending seven of
the twenty to the Sucky South.  Eight if Chevy Chase, Maryland counts.

I haven't sent christmas cards in at least 10 years.  I think it is a dying custom - at least as far as mass mailing goes.  My parents still send and receive lots of them and I always enjoy looking through the stack to see who I remember of their long-term friends.

I just sent out a few (maybe sixteen or seventeen) last week.  They just
went to family and close friends and only because I was on vacation and
had sufficient leisure time to write them.  Most years I do not send any.

Yes, I hurriedly did mine late last week.  I used to write long letters
in them (individual letters, I mean, not form letters -- though some of
those individual letters were close to identical), but those letters
have gotten shorter and shorter through the years and were in many cases
this year just "I hope you have a great Christmas and a perfect 2004" or
"I loved seeing you at the party in Jackson last summer" or "I'm really
going to get to Munich for another visit one of these days" or "I'm
going to send you a long e-mail note soon."  Kind of makes me wonder
whether I should bother sending them at all.  I have been paring the
list every year and send far fewer now than I used to.  I sent maybe
40-50 this year.  Didn't count since I didn't need to order xmas cards
this year -- haven't in several years.  I've been getting so many free
ones (that I like -- I throw them away if I don't like them) from
charitable causes in recent years that I've got a huge stockpile of them.

I almost went into medicine - traumatic surgery, actually.  It was the 23rd
board specialty, created in my senior year of high school. I found out I
didn't have the patience (opportunity for paronomasia there, but I'll pass
on it) for sitting through the classes.

I don't remember whether it identified its geographical location.  Its
name was something like Rush Medical School.

Kay Scarpetta never practiced medicine, though she obviously uses her MD
in her work -- or her previous work.  I'm chomping at the bits for that
new book y'all were talking about to be available in paperback.  (It's
not, btw, just that I'm too cheap to buy hardbacks.  It's that I like to
carry books of that kind around -- to read on airplanes or in waiting
rooms or whatever.  They need to fit in my purse.)

As a young wife, I purchased a number of Christmas <post>cards, determined
to be a good correspondent. In moving the desk upstairs this year, I
discovered the still-unused stack, and decided that now would be a good
time to send them out, since this would also let me update the address
book. I know lots of emails, but very few streets and zipcodes. If anyone
wishes to receive an Xmas postcard from me, they can drop me a private
line w/ their snailmail.

It will be a good warmup for my writing hand. In addition to the sentiment,
of course!

"Austin places second among world's 'knowledge' regions

Austin ranks second among the world's top knowledge-based economic
regions, according to the 2003 World Knowledge Competitive Index.

The survey of 125 regions around the world defines knowledge
competitiveness as an area's ability to create new ideas, processes
and products and translate them into economic value and wealth.

The top 14 regions are in the United States. San Francisco topped the
list, followed by Austin; Boston; Rochester, N.Y.; Minneapolis;
Denver; Hartford, Conn.; Raleigh-Durham, N.C.; Grand Rapids, Mich.;
and San Diego. At No. 15, Tokyo is the first region outside the United
States."

With Alyce, it's her presence that's felt keenly.

I'm back from Marconi Center.  We had a great time.  Serendipitously, we
discovered Donna Sheehan, who lives right nearby, and she talked to the
group for a while.

Donna and her partner Paul are the folks who started the photos of lots of
naked people spelling out "PEACE" or making peace symbols with their bodies
on beaches or grassy hills
<<http://baringwitness.org>http://baringwitness.org/>.  Interestingly,
she's not an exhibitionist; she said she's the type who wears a bathrobe
around the house instead of ambling about nude.

She's over 70, but was as spunky and optimistic as a 23-year old.  It was a
real treat. :)

When I was a kid in bone-dry Reno in the winter, there were times my mom
smeared lotion (probably A&D) on my cracked hands and put me to bed with
cotton gloves.  I didn't like it, but it worked.

>At times I've thought that olive oil might help some, though.

I like peanut or avocado oil, and have used them happily as a body
moisturizer.  The trick is to put it on right after toweling dry from the
shower.  The oily feeling soaks in pretty quickly.

Right now I'm using Aveeno lotion after showers and hand-washings.

I eventually tried lanolin on both my hands and my feet (with gloves & old
socks) knowing what lanolin did to treat strawberries picked up on the pitch

Delete schmelete. I read the archives on ra and there's no deleting
select posts there. As an old-time wordslur I've perfected a system
to read Natalie's posts efficiently - necessary when trying to follow
multiple threads while reading as few posts as possible. ;-)

        I got my assistant a little wooden ornament and some
chocolate (as for Phil's suggestion -- that was thoroughly
disgusting, and I was brought up better than that, and I
certainly hope you were, too).

        I had no idea people liked those little finger tip towels so
much.  I bought some for everybody except the copy center
guy, who I bought rat food and chocolate for.

Good job!  Is your copy guy a rodent with a sweet
tooth, or does he have a ratty friend?

A bunch of us are going to the 11 am screening tomorrow of the
new LOTR movie. Everyone but me has read the trilogy numerous
times, seen the first two movies the week they were released etc.
I've read -The Hobbit- and caught The Two Towers on DVD the
other day.

I'm very scared ...

Don't be.  You will hear all sorts of stuff about how it isn't just like
the book and is (a) better or (b) a travesty.  In a way, not having read
the trilogy, you have no baggage and just can appeciate (or not) the movie
for what it is worth.

Enjoy.

P.S.,  As a somewhat Tolkien geek, I thought that the Two Towers was not as
good as the first installment---too much "invention" in the TT.  I would
love to see this production group do the Hobbit.

Well,

  Natalie is pretty quiet tonight.  Wonder if her eyes are glued shut and
she can't see the screen.  Sounds like she has conjunctivitis and should go
see the doc.

When I had conjunctivitis, I itched. No discharge, just lots of
itching. Are there different symptoms?

I itched (that constant feeling something was in my eye), woke up with eyes
glued shut, and when I got them open, they were red. Had to do the drop
routine.  I believe everyone in my family except Ed has had it at least
once.  Highly contagious.

Yeah, I had it once, brought on by an experience with
early contacts.  It was VERY painful, I wound up at
the ER the night before I was to start a new job.  Misery!

Right. I don't remember the eyes glued (but they may have been)--just
the itching and redness.

Yes, I'm sending out cards.
Seem to be receiving less than usual, and sending out less than usual too.

Knowing to do a search is good enough.

I'm still surprised worry beads didn't come up during the discussion.

My eyes are fine.  I think the ear medicine must have zapped the eye
problem.  But it is still wrestling with the ear problem.  My feeling is
that coughing is related -- that every time I cough, which is about
every minute, the ears get refilled with whatever it is they're filled
with.  But that is just my gut feeling.  I know nothing about ears and
throats and stuff.  Nor do I know about medicines.  I have been
fascinated by how so many of you seem intimate with particular
medicines.  My attitude toward them is that that's why God created
doctors and pharmacists.  I don't need to clutter my mind with that kind
of knowledge.

That's because Rita was on the manipulatives side of thing and

Knowing to do a search is good enough.

Why lucky?  I have had very, very few prescription medications in my
life.  I guess that's lucky.  That's why I was fascinated by the
familiarity of various Wordslers with various medicines and with
Phil's(?) comment about people asking doctors for certain kinds of
medicines, etc.  I wouldn't have the slightest idea what kind of
medicine to ask for.  I've heard terms like "antibiotic" all of my life,
but I have no idea what an antibiotic actually is, nor do I have any
memory of ever having taken one before.  I remember occasional
penicillin shots in childhood.  Is that an antibiotic?  I have not had
occasion in adulthood to go to a doctor because of <illness>.  I've had
prescriptions for things like birth-control pills, some kind of salve
after having little skin cancers zapped, glaucoma-preventive eyedrops,
and Fosamax.  That's it for my prescription life.  I also don't know
ingredients in over-the-counter medicines.  With a stopped-up nose, a
term like "decongestant" strikes me as clearly appropriate, but if there
are more specialized terms, I don't know what they are -- things like
antihistimine (which, like antibiotic, is a term I've heard forever but
don't know what is).

So is your point that I'm lucky not to have had need for these things?
I can't imagine all of sudden when having need for medication to be
expected on my own to acquire the knowledge of medicines that doctors
and pharmacists spend years acquiring.

You fed me the straight material, I just wrote the punch line.

Brought up? I was brought up by wolves.

Certainly that was no worse than what Letterman's Top Ten was last night - I
don't watch him but they repeat the top ten every morning on the radio here.

The point is that many of us who are not as lucky as you have spent

The crew (directorial & production) felt like The Two Towers did ramble on
too long except for the diehard fans but that anyone should be okay watching
this movie.  A number of early, reasonable[1] critics  have said it might
have the potential to be nominated for Uncle Oscars beyond the usual "Best
Special Effects", "Best Costumes", "Best Tchotchke at a Fast Food
Restaurant", etc.

[1] Aside from the janitorial crew contributions for movies: "Time says,
'best movie of the millenium!'" and it may have been written by the
custodial crew but is still attributed to Time simply because they work
there albeit they aren't the actual critics.

penicillin is an antibiotic. a rough definition of an antibiotic is
something which will kill or severely prevent the growth of bacteria.
penecillin was the first (remember the moldy bread?).  Unfortunately,
research medicine must constantly look for new ones because people abuse the
use of current ones, making existing strains of bacteria impervious to any
known antibiotics.  One of the "fun" things people who have AIDS/HIV get is
tuberculosis[1,2].  Generally, the tuberculosis occurs with jail inmates the
most[3,4].  Today, many medical folks believe tuberculosis is immune to
nearly all known strains of antibiotics; i.e., if you were to get
tuberculosis, regardless of the means, it's not known whether they could
save you.  As I've mentioned in other messages, one of the worst things
people can do is buy [and use] all of the fancy-schmancy "antibacterial
(soap; laundry detergent; dental floss; dishwashing soap; yeah, I'm getting
a little carried away, but it's for a reason - the only time you really need
"antibacterial <anything>" is when you really need it - giving an injection
- medicine in general.  Trying to kill every bug which comes along only
creates fewer, but stronger bugs.  And those bugs become stronger and
stronger to the point of becoming more impervious to the same "antibacterial
<anything>" you've been using.  So six months down the road, the
"antibacterial <anything>" you've been using has no effect and you're
placing your bets on something which has no potency but you've managed to
create gobs of superbugs.  The other way you can contribute to society's
march towards reducing the efficacy of known antibiotics is when you have a
prescription for any antibiotics.  If the directions say, "Take until
empty." they mean, "Take until empty."  Unfortunately, people may have forty
tablets, feel better after twenty, and stop[5].  Your body has not killed
all of the bugs, just enough for you to feel better.  The remaining bugs now
have the time & other resources to get stronger and become superbugs just as
I described above.  I mentioned the other day [that] doctors are told [by
hospitals] which drugs to use and which not to.  A lot of brand-new
antibiotics are on the "do not use unless all else fails."  Otherwise,
someone presents symptoms which could be addressed by an existing antibiotic
and they've got a new one to play with[6] so they whip out their pen|pencil
and away they go ("you know, we've got this *new* antibiotic and I think
it'll do the trick for you!" - making you feel special).  If that antibiotic
is abused by patients like the others (antibiotics), suddenly a brand new
antibiotic is shot to h%ll weeks after it's on the market because a doctor
couldn't resist writing a script for a patient who wouldn't follow
directions and a script for an older antibiotic.  And the person who might
have been saved by that medication could have been you (or someone you love
& care for) but it's now impervious to that antibiotic.

As far as this:

> occasion in adulthood to go to a doctor because of <illness>.  I've had
> prescriptions for things like birth-control pills, some kind of salve

Doctors may (or may not) mention this, but it's probably good idea for
anyone who is on birth control to ask about that and antibiotics.  I don't
keep abreast of the cutting edge so I don't know if there's still an
interaction.  At one time, it wasn't good to take both - the antibiotic
would nullify the pills and one might end up with a special surprise as they
healed.

[1] "white death" or "consumption", as it was known in the late 1800s -
early 1900s.
[2] my mom had tuberculosis and must have an x-ray every year to prove the
shadows on her lungs haven't increased; i.e., showing it's in check.
[3] they are generally the least able to pick their sexual partners so
AIDS/HIV can be said to be "inflicted" upon many of them.
[4] they also have some of the worst medical care so things run rampant in
their bodies.
[5] If they can't follow directions and are smarter than the Dr., why did
they go in the first place? This doesn't detract from when I've said that if
you don't get satisfaction from a Dr. to go to another one.  If you have a
good Dr. and they give you instructions, follow them (the Dr. and the
instructions)
[6] I'm using "play" in the sense of "Give a boy a hammer and the world
looks like a bunch of nails."

I have just visited my doctor, mainly for a check on my blood pressure but when I was there I mentioned my cold - or my "cold". According to him it was a lung-oriented variant of influenza - which should mean that I am safe now from some of the more heavy variants floating around right now, and which also explains why I felt so bad when I came back from the North - or when I had run the distance between outrigger A and B at terminal 1 in Frankfurt.

Do you suffer from the "white coat syndrome" when it comes to blood
pressure?  Some people have a higher BP when they are in a doctor's office
(hence the reference to "white coat") than if they were at home, work, etc.
It's actually quite interesting to see how much of a difference there is.

You make it sound as though you wouldn't expect influenza to be
lung-oriented.

Flu *is* a respiratory disease.

I am trying to proof and teach Omnipage 14 to read about 60 pages. This is a difficult kind of text. The basic language is Norwegian from 1905. In the text there are quotes and longer texts in Swedish as of 1905. And of course there is some pure Danish (again as of 1905). Now the fun begins. At first I selected Danish as the expected source text because I forgot the Swedish - then I ran it again and added Norwegian since already at that time there were certain differences in Danish and Norwegian spelling. But the Norwegin, even if it is more Norwegian in some ways than modern Danish, is in other ways more archaic than modern Danish. And the whole Swedish material is from before their own pruning of archaic spelling in general: for instance this Swedish uses the combination '-fv-' in a lot of places where modern Swedish has '-v-'.

But the real fun is that since these languages are so close what is an error in one of them may be correct in one or both of the others. And added to this: this is historic source material which is supposed to be displayed exactly as it was printed in 1906, including actual errors.

Since I have been ill I am behind in this and on January 14 we are expecting the minister of research and education, probably the Swedish embassador and God knows who else to come here and sip some sparkling wine and virtually cut the ribbon.

Also, everything you've ever gotten, the pills the doctors gave
you cured you.  That's lucky number two.  The other way people pick
up knowlege of medicines is the doctors give you something that
doesn't work.  So either you spend a lot of time letting them

The Hobbit is not representative. LOTR is dramatic and very dark. You
will see where a lot of Star Wars themes came from when you watch this.
It's good that you saw 2T first.

The bigger news here is that it was opening day for Krispy Kreme's first
Syracuse store; the traffic was backed up down the Blvd when I came out
of the eye Dr's office this am.

Reading the Hobbit as a kidlet is an error, imho. My daughter also tried,
and is allergic to Tolkien as a result. It's like an innoculation against
understanding the truly adult breadth of the story.

First comes the itching and the redeye. Then comes the gluey stage. I'd
guess you caught it early or had a mild case.

I've had it several times due to the pleasures of doing child care.
The gluey kind is really frightening. Sometimes you have to soak the
eyelids just to get the eye to open.

That's what happened when KK first opened here.  After a couple of years,
one burned and wasn't replaced, and for whatever reason, sales dropped off.
You could pick your time to pick up anything you wanted of any volume
(indicating poor sales and no line). Now, there are little signs in the gas
stations indicating they've got them but from the looks, they could be as
old as the hot dogs spinning - one could almost make a reality game show out
of it:  who can eat the most (of either), which ones are older?, etc.

That's dumb -- not following directions.  I'm a great believer in
following directions.  If it says take all of the pills, no matter how
you feel, I figure there's a good reason for that direction, and I will
follow it.

I can assure you that that is not relevant in my case.  I was talking
about all the prescription medicines I've had in my life.  That was one.
    And during those years I had no occasion for antibiotics.  As I
think I mentioned, I remember a couple of occasions in childhood of
penicillin shots but have never before in adulthood had any <disease>
that required a doctor or shot or prescription (except glaucoma eye
drops and Fosamax, of course).

?  Day before yesterday was the first time I've ever had a prescription
for a short-term illness.  (I say short-term to rule out glaucoma and
osteoporosis.)  So I'm not really sure what you mean by "everything
[I've] ever gotten."

Espen, have you considered working with Project Gutenberg's Distributed
Proofreaders (http://www.pgdp.net/) to correct the OCR?

I've proofed 100 pages so far; it's a good way to read some interesting
texts while helping others read them.

I learned years ago to lower my pulse rate and blood pressure, as well
as raising my body temp, at will. Once I learned that anxiety was raising
my bp in the office, I applied "warm hands" thinking to the problem, and
my bp is very satisfactory ever since.

And Googling for "worry-beads wikipedia" got me the "orchidometer" entry there:
http://www.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orchidometer

An orchidometer, sometimes called "medical worry beads," is a calibrated
set of ellipsoid beads of graduated sizes, used to compare with boys'
testicles for diagnostic purposes.  Here's a picture:

It seems a useful device whose purpose I wouldn't have guessed from seeing it.

It is nice for you that everything you've gotten has either
a) not needed prescription medication or
b) responded correctly to the medication you've been given (been fixed),
without serious negative consequences.

Many of us have learned that it's best to educate oneself thoroughly abt
medications and their effects because of medications that didn't affect
us properly - ie, either didn't do what they were hoped to do, or caused
severe side-effects.

No, I have not considered that. I didn't knwo about it - it is quite a few years since I was involved in anything with PG - I did a book for them once. But since I have a deadline of yesterday more or less, and since I have requirements when it comes to accuracy (as I mentioned, the text should be identical with the one in the printed edition, and identical here means down to the last comma) while for instance PG has as its philosophy that the text should be readable but not necessarily a copy of the original on the level that is needed for aa scholarly edition, it would not really cross my mind to get into that. Also, that would mean setting it up, worrying what to do if I didn't have it back by noon tomorrow etc. So that kind of thing is fine for many uses but not for my purposes.

Indeed, I enjoyed doing the Gutenberg book I did some years ago. I even entered information in the heading infor about which edition this was from - and found it removed when the text was published in PG.

Right now, it's the latest thing. If you want to see another one (which I'm
presuming fits the same profile) then the next time you're in the grocery
store (a reasonably sized one) or a general store such as Target, KMart (if
they are still around in your area) and look at the household cleanser
aisle.  Lots of the products have oxy-* or orange* in their names or
prominent lettering (mostly names because that's as prominent as they can
get in their lettering).  I will wager both Oxy-* and Orange-* are the
results of infomercials[1]  All of the suits for the "regular" brands have
likely seen or projected sales for things such as OxyClean and OrangeClean
and figured they'd better tap into it.  There are now bunches of commercials
targeting regular brands against "oxy this" (not by name) and lots of
cleaning products now have "a lovely orange scent" to them.  Now they didn't
all decide to do this in the previous two years out of thin air, did they?

[1] Did you know infomercials were created as a result of a presidential
action?  Ronald Regan deregulated the FCC, who had previously declared a
maximum of seven minutes of commercials per half hour of air time.  Once the
FCC was deregulated, they removed that restriction, and the rest is how they
invented chicken soup.

Guess what? Most patients don't follow directions!  And to top it off, a lot
of doctors aren't surprised by this.  When I was an EMT (granted I stopped
doing it about twenty years ago), if I had time, I'd ask for any meds they
were taking so they could go along instead of someone trying to remember.
Their bottle inventory was a nightmare.  It wasn't a case of grabbing the
bottles and running with them, knowing they are current - most of the time,
no one had a clue as to what was being taken or not.  Then again, I'm
probably just as bad: I'm allergic to morphine and don't wear an alert tag.
We've been trying to find a place where I could carry my list of meds
because I have so many. Most wouldn't interfer with anything I would be
treated with except pain killers. Aside from the allergy, there's the issue
of my taking methadone for so long as well as some of my other meds which do
some tinkering on my pain receptors a lot of things they'd give me wouldn't
work the way they'd expect.

Back to directions.  I suffer from tendonitis in my right knee because of
the PT (physical therapy) after my second surgery (I never got injured in
college and it wasn't until we were playing indoor as a club that I did my
knee twice).  The orthopod said, "Do *NOT* let your foot hit the floor for
the next two weeks."  I asked, "so if I'm going to fall and I could correct
it with a light touch, I should fall?" and he said, "yes".  So two weeks
later, I started PT.  They stood me up and took away my crutches, then asked
to walk, using the two tables for support, but were astounded I wasn't
familiar with what I was doing.  "You haven't been testing this?" "No. The
doctor said..." "Huh. Most of the people experiment before they get here."
and I said, "Now how would it look if I ruined the surgery because I
cheated?"  If I hurt it here, it's at least your fault, but I do follow
instructions.  If you tell me do <this> ten times a day. Or don't ever do
<this>. I will follow your instructions to the letter of the law, no matter
what."  Well, under their supervision, I did a number on a rather lovely
tendon.

Penicillin used to be a fairly common allergy but I don't know if it is any
more.  Then again, I don't know the last time I heard someone getting
penicillin - it's probably so weak it's not worth using.

Different stages of development, perhaps.  The three red beads correspond
to 16-25 ml, which one web page says is adult size.

Unfortunately Prader's original article doesn't appear to be online;
however, this article from the British Medical Journal about a chocolate
alternative for the 8 ml bead (corresponding to the 50th centile at 13
years of age) is pretty funny if you read medicalese:
http://bmj.bmjjournals.com/cgi/content/full/323/7327/1486
or

Penicillin is derived from a mold, and many people with allergies to molds
have penicillin allergies as well. Penicillin is still used, and its near
relatives like amoxycillin are also still widely used. In fact, it's very
good for ear infections.

We started the expensive new antibiotic rounds somewhat before it was
a general habit, due to my daughter's allergies to both -cillins and
sulfas, as well as constant ear infections and strep throat rounds (which
as I mentioned before, lessened dramatically after V stopped smoking inside
the house, - and also the dog got given antiobiotics for an infected paw.
 it turned out later -who knew?- dogs can be carriers for strep and pass
it to family members!)

I had a WLM at the mall yesterday and bought some "No-Crack" (love the name) hand cream at Restoration Hardware. But my usual hand cream is Neutrogena Norwegian formula. I also have hand eczema, and for really bad times I use a specially compounded beta ointment.

Of course.

What I've noticed with the cards we've received thus far is how the vast majority of them probably 10 of about 12 are pictures of our friends' kids. Pretty telling about the point in our lives that we're at.

We get the same kinda of cards. We are sometimes very sad or frustrated when
we get the cards.  Cancer and having kids cause many problems, we are
looking into our options.

When I was contracting for a company in Kentucky, they were small enough
(10-12 people) they permitted smoking.  They also had a lot of failing
computers - they didn't understand that there are small fragments in the air
as a byproduct which are very sensitive to electromagnetic equipment such
that they might as well be magnetic themselves.  Over time, these particles
build up in a PC because of the attraction, and ... (you can guess what
happens)

(I wore five sets of clothes while there and rotated them so I would only
ruin those five with the tobacco smoke.)

All of the hospitals in Indy went to "no smoking".

Now the city council[1] has been trying to determine if "no smoking" should
be the policy in Indy - the hotel/bar/restaurant owners have said it will
kill their business(es).  No one has pointed out that people are suddenly
going to drive an hour away just so they can smoke while they eat.

[1] we have what's called "unigov" - the city & the county essentially are
the same gov't with some minor differences - so the city council is the
primary law-making body for both city+county.

Without digging any more, I'll betcha a nickel it's a rescued dog from a
shelter.  They make excellent dogs for these types of shows - one reason is
to prevent people from thinking it's got to be a purebreed to be able to
perform.[1]  In about a month, it'll be two years since we lost
Kramer[2,3,4,5] (Kramer had black, poofy hair on Seinfeld, so...; and after
we lost him, our Kees got the name Cosmo[6] to honor Kramer).  Kramer never
performed like that, but if you showed him certain things once, he'd do them
again on cue.  We took him to obedience school[4] and it almost seemed a
waste of time (although it wasn't).  We show him something to do and he'd do
it for the bite of hotdog, and thereafter, on cue. And when he was put into
a "stay", "down stay", "standing stay", he wouldn't break it until we told
him to, even if the staff from the school offered him a hotdog.  He'd wag
his tail, look at them as if to say, "I know what you think I'm supposed to
do but I'm following someone else's instructions at the moment, thank you
very much." The guy running the school said, "He's not a purebred, you
know." (despite the fact Kramer had as black a tongue as possible and our
vet said the color of the tongue can almost be used as an indicator of
"chow-ness". I responded, "we're not interested in breeding him, just having
him as a member of the family."

I wish I had some methadone with me.  According to the hash marks on my
wrist, it's day seven and crying is one of the things which notches the pain
up a couple of levels.  I've been sitting at migraine levels all week
anyway.

[1] There's a group performing at the state fair every year which uses five
or six rescued dogs performing similar [but nowhere as long as the] routines
presented.  They restate they are rescues many times.  They've said it takes
several months to learn some of the simpler routines.  It all comes down to
breaking things into pieces and communicating what you want to happen.
[2] Kramer was our second rescue. I was doing some contract work and someone
sent out email: "We've found a black male chow which is about forty pounds.
He doesn't get along with our dog and our dog is staying.  We've put posters
up, run ads in the paper, etc. and today is his last day with us. If no one
comes to get him, he's going to the pound."  I got directions and went out
to see him.  He came right over and I checked him out.  "Are you *sure* you
don't want him?" "yes."  I opened the door and said, "Let's go home!" and by
the time I finished that, he was in the front seat, ready to go.
Interestingly enough, that was Holly's birthday.
[3] Purdue is up the road a ways and after we lost Kramer, a guy from
Purdue's animal research walked in to the hospital's administrative pharmacy
(where Holly works) to pick up some meds.  The meds he used turned out to
have been possible to heal Kramer - about six weeks after we had to put him
to sleep - he didn't go downhill until the last week - sometimes finding
answers sucks.
[4] Our vet cried with us.  He was the only chow chow anyone on the staff
would kneel down and get down in his face, feeling safe. I rushed home
because he went out when Holly opened the door, layed down, and wouldn't get
up, he was too weak.  He hated to get picked up.  In this case, there was no
alternative.
[5]We used to take him to the nursing home where Holly's grandmother lived.
The first time we walked in with him, I unclipped his leash and turned him
loose.  I know it's easy to trust a dog, but this went way beyond trust. I
*knew* he was trustworthy.  The staff knew by watching him as well.  He'd
walk up to someone and if they didn't see him, he'd nudge them a moment and
rest his head on their lap. If they scratched him or pet him, he'd stay. If
not, he'd move on.
[6] Cosmo was born on Holly's birthday & the day we rescued Kramer.
Symbolic?

> > Anyone besides me sending out Christmas cards this year?

It's never been one of my rites, but this year I found my
mother's stash of unused freebies, from Paralyzed Veterans etc.,
mismatched envelopes -- a few of them already stamped with the
33-cent denomination, and her card list ending about the year
2000, when illnesses and lethargy caused her to stop sending and
updating.  Suddenly I got into The Spirit!  The chintzier the
card, the better.  I found some old generic upgrade stamps in my
stash, so mailed out a dozen or more to family, with
appropriately cheery HO-HO-HO sentiments, decorating the
envelopes with all the Habitat for Humanity address labels I
could find -- stockings hung over the mantel, wrapped presents,
ribbons, songbirds, and the like.  Made me feel good, let me tell
you!

Incoming volume has not been like what it used to be in the peak
years of their Ministry, but every card, even if it's just signed
and no more, triggers an Ah-ha memory and maybe a smile.  Daddy
is gloating because our bank sent him one and not me.  :(

I think I get just as many of those now as I did when my contemporaries
were first having children.  They tend now to be group pictures of
extended families: the couple my age, their grown children and
children-in-law, and grandchildren.

Thanks, but I doubt that there'd be any more info in a directory than
there is about him on the hospital website -- his med school,
internship, and residency.  He might not even be in directories since
he's not board certified.

I've alerted Spencer that when my ears stop throbbing, I'm going to
teach him to dance.  He's ready for it.  He hasn't had a walk in ages
now and is ready for any action at all.

He'd be in the AMA Directory so long as he's *licensed* but you're right -- they don't have that much information.

= having an ear infection or strep throat.

Add one more to the smoking parents, kids earaches and strep.
Interestingly, it all went away when we moved to San Diego where
even though my mom continued to smoke, we lived for most of the
year with two screen doors and all the windows open.  I figured
it was just related to Chicago, but my roommate my first year in
college didn't smoke and I didn't get strep.  My sophmore year I
had a roommate who did smoke, and I did get strep.  I cannot
imagine living with a smoker in a room that's 10x10 (scratch
that, I cannot imagine living in a room that small with anyone,
let alone a smoker).

When I was a freshman in college, there were three of us in a tiny
room and we all smoked. How nasty is that?

(And I got strep.)

NYS went no-smoking for bars and restaurants recently; some of us
nonsmokers are spending more time and money in bars now that it doesn't
hurt so much; and in spite of the "it will kill us" and blaming the law
when a business fails, business seems to be booming after a scant week
or two of low activity in some venues. The two places I've heard of that
blamed closing up on the smoking law, were both notorious for mismanagement
and owner/partner disputes.

The other interesting development is that V came home quite drunk one
night after having been in a speakeasy - a place that secretly collects
money from smoking customers in anticipation of fines - to see what it
was like. Everybody there feels naughty and rebellious; but most people
here just take the rule in stride.

For lots of people like V, who already didn't smoke inside at work or
home, it's not a big deal to step outside at a restaurant either.

Hmmm... I tried in my 20's with the same result. Maybe I'm just

Perhaps, but I don't think it has any bearing on this.  ;-->

I read The Hobbit first.  Having now read both many times, I believe that
The Hobbit is best appreciated as a "prequel" after having read the
trilogy.  I'm not sure why I believe this (or at the least, I can't
articulate it), but the sense is strong.

Welcome to LuckyLife, Bonniemae.  I grew up in a house with what I guess
I'd call 1.5 parents smoking -- Daddy always smoked, Mama was an
occasional smoker, and I have smoked most of my adult life.  I've never
had strep throat that I know of.  And I never had an ear infection until
the current incident.  (And I haven't smoked in my house in years --
never in this particular house.)

I have CBS news on my tiny electric teevee right now and heard Dan
Rather say something a little while ago like, "The capture of Saddam
doesn't seem to have changed Howard Dean's position on the war."  I
found that a dopey statement.  Why would it change anybody's position on
the war?  As I think I said a few days ago, it is a good thing that he
was finally found -- for many reasons.  But what does finding him have
to do with the illegal war?

Thank you for the welcome.  Like you I've never taken a medicine that
didn't work and I'm not intimately familiar with brands of antibiotics.  At
this afternoon's stitching session, someone noted that people who have been
parents are much more proactive about their health care because they are
used to having to find out all the details and quiz the doctors when taking
care of children.  That could be true.  One of the women has a diabetic
(Type 1) husband.  She keeps a huge folder of information, drug
interactions, testing results.  She insists on going in to the examining
room with him because he doesn't ask enough questions left on his own.  He
had to have gall bladder surgery this past summer.  By the time they
decided what was wrong with him, they had him whacked out on pain
medication.  It was up to her to give permission for the surgery.  The
doctor didn't allow her to go home and google on it before making a
decision.  She was distressed.

Someone I know told me that a friend of hers was looking to give her
yarn to a good home. So I went and picked it up today. About 50 cones
of wool, 20 skeins, plus a half-dozen cones of linen. Woohoo! I could
never afford all of this! It's like Christmas!

        Hmm.  Yeah.  I do tend to be more education about Ana's
health than I'd bother about with my own.  Also, kids tend
to get more bacterial crap because of being in schools,
which are germ fests of incredible magnitude.

Everything.:)

I'm currently making some candy cane lace socks out of what My Fiber
Friend calls ack-really-ick. Those will go to my sister. I'm also
making socks for Paul, corrugated socks for me (out of yarn that was
given to me by someone else), and a shawl for me. Once all THOSE are
done, I'll have to decide what to do with this stuff. Probably lots
more socks; I've been wanting to get into more color work, so this is
serendipitous!

Actually, there are two things stopping me from knitting this all up
tonight: 1) the cardboard cones most of it is on are deteriorating, so
I need to wind the yarn off into balls. (Luckily, My Fiber Friend has
a ball-winder she's going to lend me.) 2) It smells profusely of moth
balls, to which I am allergic. The only way to get rid of the smell is
time, unfortunately. (And I think winding it off the cones will help.)

If you've read this far, Terry, Burl and I made you a present which I
mailed Priority Mail yesterday. I need to write an explanation for it,
though, which I neglected to do before I mailed it.

I find it imperative to ask questions.  In my family, my grandmother walks
in and says she's coughing and expects the doc to tell her what's wrong.
She doesn't ask questions.  My parents are a bit better, but when my Mom
had leukemia, I'd come up with all these questions.  She took notes and
asked at the next visit.

I always ask questions and sometimes follow up days later with more
questions.  I had a doctor want to prescribe an allergy medicine for me
when my gut (actually head) told me it wasn't right.  I never took it, went
and got non-allergy sinus med and was fine.  I didn't go back to him.
There is a tendency to over prescribe just to give people the feel good
they are being treated.  I try to avoid that any way possible.

I have fond memories of sitting in the family farmhouse next to the
coal/wood stove in the kitchen helping my grandmother roll balls from
skeins of yarn.  The chair arms were just the right size to hold the skein.

Yes--I would love to do this by hand, but it's a ridiculous amount of
wool, and since MFF has a ballwinder...

Hard to air cones.:) Maybe I'll make skeins before I wind it into
balls, that will help.

It's nothing big, really.

Genetically pre-disposed, sure.  But I'm sure I would have been sick less
if my parents hadn't smoked.  I also wonder if my mom smoking when she was
pregnant made things worse.  And other things, like formula instead of
breastmilk, cereal at two weeks, etc.

This is really impressive and interesting.  I wish I
had the time and intellect to pursue the evolution of
languages.  I am barely literate in English.

Do you think the king might come?  Does Norway have a
king now?

Moi aussi. And just this morning, I got a reservation at the Abbey of
Gethsemani for Christmas week (Mon-Fri)  - for the first time. I may not
be able to get away until Tues, but I am going to shoot for Mon - I am
really looking forward to this. I spoke with one of the monks at some
length this morning. There will be a midnight mass on Christmas Eve,
complete with a singing of "Silent Night" at the close of the service -
in the finest Anglican - or at least Episcopal - tradition.

Tonight, I rehearsed with the Cathedral choir for Sunday (IV Advent -
Lessons & Carols) and Christmas - it was nice to get to sing Christmas
carols with the choir since I will not be here to sing them Christmas Eve.
But of course we sing them for 12 days.

My maternal grandmother and her circle of friends
settled on one beautiful, lacy card of Gibson Girl
vintage that they mailed  back and forth between them
each Christmas.  No one knew who would get it next.
It went this way through the mail for 36 years, before
it finally gave up the ghost.  They took great
pleasure in this little custom, and I remember my
grandmother giggling like a young girl when it came to
her.  I guess it seems pretty silly these days, but
things like that amused them tremendously.

The movie was a box office flop when it was first
released.  As much as I love old movies, this is one
that I CAN miss each Christmas, though it's hard to
beat any film with J. Stewart in the lead.

The movie was great - much better than Two Towers, imo.
It kept me interested and I hate long movies. Sure to please
somewhat Tolkien geeks. There was some clapping and general
cheering at the beginning and end, after key fights etc. I
understand clapping at live events but don't get it in movies.

Viggo Mortensen is a hottie.

Gotta get to NZ soon.

(a) No kids
(b) No allergies, relatively good health
(c) No interest

I'm with you on one and two but have a moderate geek interest in new
science and that includes advances in medicine, esp. the techie aspects.

It is my experience that doctors loathe being
second-guessed, or questioned with any kind of
informed queries.

I read The Hobbit first and that made me interested in LOTR.  - which I have read many more times than The Hobbit. It was when I was in high school (gymnasium) I was an assistant at bothanical field work up in the mountains some Dutch women who were also working there had brought along The Hobbit. I borrowed it and then a little later I went with one of them (hitchhiking) to see Amsterdam I bought LOTR there. I got so consumed by it that when I was hitchhiking back to Oslo I often just sat by the road and read if the weather was good. I was 16 then (almost 17) then and of course I read it with slightly different eyes now.

I disagree; I think that The Hobbit was written as essentially a children's
story (but not with a clear sense of what children understand and
appreciate). It has an entirely different rhythm, tone, and level of
reasoning and ethics.

I also think that once he had gotten into his created
world, he started to think about the possibilities of writing a saga that
addressed adult mythologies, issues, and passions - probably as a result
of discussion with other Inklings. Think "Chronicles of Narnia" compared
to "Perelandra".

I suppose it would be easy to know by looking at his letters and so on
whether this was so, and perhaps I'll find the leisure to check it out -
or perhaps someone else here has already done?

We have developed over time a habit of having an advocate "come with" to
any serious Dr's appt. Ahead of time, we brainstorm questions for the Dr.
The advocate has the list, and a mandate to act on the patient's
concerns: did he/she remember to ask the planned questions? Did the Dr.
brush any off or answer too complicatedly? The advocate also takes notes,
because it's hard to remember a lot of complicated and scary (in the case
of serious illness or injury, which is what this is for) info, esp. when
in pain.

This has worked extremely well, especially when the patient is on meds
that make them dizzy or forgetful. I often urge students who are facing
frightening procedures to use this model - take a relative or friend for
handholding and to help keep track of questions and answers.

I think it depends on the doctor and the way the
questions are asked. We have learned to make that
part of our criteria for picking drs. Someone who
objects to answering questions is less likely to
pick up errors in understanding answers - thereby
increasing the likelihood that important directions
will not be followed.

The worst is the dr. who speaks to the nurse
instead of the patient directly, eg: I think she
has strep throat. Have her gargle with salt
water and - the rest lost as they walk out into
the hall together.

Yes, for many years, this was recommended practice,
to get the child on semi-solid foods as quickly as
possible to increase weight, on the narrow premise
that larger children were healthier.

Of course it increases the likelihood of allergies
and adult obesity, but nobody knew that yet...

It's too be hoped that the new perspective has improved in
some parameter beyond freshness, then. If the old one has
been wiped away, you're stuck with it now!

As much as I enjoy this jibe, I feel compelled by an overly literal nature
to point out that we - all of us - rarely return to old assumptions or
ideas to recheck their validity in the light of new understanding. This
is my primary objection to permitting children to watch Disney. They will
go through life believing that Dumas wrote a happy ending to "Hunchback of
Notre Dame".

That aspect hadn't occurred to me - thanks for the insight!
I was still working on "Truth is the Neutrogena Norwegian Formula",
a philosophical premise that is both mysterious and compelling.

LOL! As a followup question, what do you suppose is the division

I agree with this assessment. Maybe it's a matter of <attitude>, Lynne. Asking informed questions and <questioning>  with informed queries sound different to me.

dinner was about Guber!

Whee!  Luckily for me, this was contemporaneous with the medical judgement
that smoking during pregnancy was just fine.

To be fair to my mom, she was a first-time mother, living a thousand miles
away from her family, and she was probably worried that I wasn't eating
enough formula...

No need to make excuses for her... it really <is> called "practicing"
medicine for a reason, and doctors were endorsing these recommendations.

Women were being encouraged not to breastfeed because bottle-fed babies
made faster weight gains, among other silly things. The Am. Diabetic
Association is still recommending a high-carb diet for people with Type
II diabetes. Wisdom comes slowly, and at a high price.

And what should be done to Dubya, Rummy, et al?  If international courts
take action and decide to return Saddam to power, surely they will move
then to punishing the criminals.  How far down the US chain of command
will they go?

The other day in the office I mentioned something about a "dairy bar" we
used to go to back in New Jersey, where we ate hot fudge sundaes
accompanied by those tiny pretzel sticks (mmmm, salt and sweet...).  My cow
orkers -- from Oregon, Texas, California, Wisconsin, and Vietnam -- didn't
recognize the term.

Clearly it must be a regional term, but I'm curious about the extent of the
region.  I don't have access to DARE.  Googling pointed to places ranging
from New Hampshire (the UNH Dairy Bar is widely known in New England) to
New York to the Midwest.  In Rhode Island and nearby Massachusetts, the
equivalent might be "creamery", as in "Newport Creamery".

Side note -- I'm going to New Hampshire January 21-28 to campaign in the
primary.  I expect to be among HD's cheering throngs come election night.

Without saying anything about Dan Rather in particular, the American media
have become whores to American public opinion.  (And conversely, of course,
American public opinion is largely a creation of media playing to base,
hot-button emotions.  The tiger chases its tail, and is chased by it.)

The American public wants to be titillated by war, and so we see things
like cheek swabbing, checks on politicos' opinions of the legitimateness of
war based on capture of a collapsed despot, etc.

Rather's question wouldn't have been analytic as much as titillating.

I grew up with "dairy bar" in Central New York.

>>> beisbol@ALUMNI.PITT.EDU 12/18/03 01:05PM >>>
The other day in the office I mentioned something about a "dairy bar" we
used to go to back in New Jersey, where we ate hot fudge sundaes
accompanied by those tiny pretzel sticks (mmmm, salt and sweet...).  My cow
orkers -- from Oregon, Texas, California, Wisconsin, and Vietnam -- didn't
recognize the term.

Clearly it must be a regional term, but I'm curious about the extent of the
region.  I don't have access to DARE.  Googling pointed to places ranging
from New Hampshire (the UNH Dairy Bar is widely known in New England) to
New York to the Midwest.  In Rhode Island and nearby Massachusetts, the
equivalent might be "creamery", as in "Newport Creamery".

Side note -- I'm going to New Hampshire January 21-28 to campaign in the
primary.  I expect to be among HD's cheering throngs come election night.

Well, he passed near by but I respected his privacy.  Very nice young
man.  It seemed the entire campus community tried to do the same. People
forgot that he was here and his security was not blatantly out there. They
were there, however.

My homw town of Spooner, WI (northwestern WI) had a dairy bar; there were
others scattered across that part of the state.

That didn't happen, but the respiratory allergies and autoimmune skin

Not whining, just saying.  I'm thankful to have a healthy and happy life

Hmmm...while I understood clearly what you meant by "dairy bar", I don't
think that I have ever or would ever use the term.  I have lived my
entire life in Massachusetts.  It is much more likely that I would say
that I was "going to Brigham's" or to "Bailey's" or wherever assuming
that <everybody> would know what I was talking about..

This is what's in the brochure my meeting hands out to visitors; typos
are mine own.

Note the term, Pete, 'an unprogrammed Quaker meeting'. You should
probably look for that when you are looking for a meeting.

I really like the term 'quality of worship'.

Karen

"Welcome to the Friends Meeting of Austin, an unprogrammed Quaker
meeting. Enter when you are ready, sit anywhere you wish, and join us
as we begin Meeting by "settling in" to the silence. Unprogrammed
Quaker Meetings are based on silence, a silence of expectation,
waiting upon the Light and the power of the Eternal Spirit. Meeting
begins with a period of silence that may remain unbroken for half hour
or more as each of us seeks to be quiet in body, mind, and spirit.
Yet, the silence of Quaker meetings is active, not passive.

As Meeting begins, you may find it difficult to relax into the silence
and feel the quietness of body, mind, and spirit. You may be disturbed
by the strangeness of the quiet, by distractions outside, or even by
your own roving thoughts. Don't worry. Rather, continue trying to find
the center of your being where you can know the presence of God.

Responsibility for the quality of worship rests with all present as we
seek to establish and maintain contemplative and meaningful silence
and to listen to those who are moved to speak. Anyone may speak, but
no ore is expected to do so. Indeed, a paradox of Quaker worship is
that in response to the promptings of the Spirit, those speaking out
of the silence, in one sense interrupting it, ultimately seek to
deepen and enrich Meeting for Worship. We ask that speakers so led by
tile Spirit rise and speak slowly and clearly in a voice that can be
heard by all in the room. Adequate time for reflection is left between
messages; this time is measured in minutes, rather than seconds.
Should you continue to worship with Friends, you will discover over
time that the messages delivered in Meetings for Worship differ in
significant ways from the stories told at twelve-step meetings, the
personal testimonies given in many other churches, political speeches,
or talk in group therapy. The best way to learn to listen for leadings
to speak is to worship with Friends, to talk to experienced Friends,
and to read about the practice of Quaker worship.

Among the unique features of a Quaker Meeting for Worship is the
variety of experiences it can embrace. Some people will have a
profound sense of awe and wonder because they sense directly that God
is present. Others will be reminded of the value of community and
shared time together. Yet others will experience a heightened
awareness of their place in some larger whole. All will in various
ways seek to take what they experience here into their daily lives and
the world even as they bring the world into our Meeting for Worship.

After about an hour, an appointed Friend extends a hand in warm
greeting, the handshake passes among all present, and the Meeting for
Worship ends. At this time, a member of the Worship and Ministry
Committee will welcome all present, asking visitors to introduce
themselves- We invite you to rise, tell us your name, whether or not
you're from here in Austin, and what brought you to Meeting. Following
introductions and announcements, you are welcomed to visit with
others. If you wish to learn more about Quakers in general or the
Friends Meeting of Austin, you may browse the literature for sale in
file adjoining room or visit with the person designated to answer
questions. There is a guest book, where you may register your presence
with us. You may also request our monthly newsletter-by regular mail
or email-though no one will contact you unless you ask to be.

Children are welcome to participate in Meeting for Worship. They can
remain in Meeting as long as they and their parents are comfortable.
Should parents wish assistance, child care is available for the entire
meeting in the basement of this building; the greeter or others
present will be glad to direct you there. Children, especially those
who arc a little older, often worship with the Meeting until about
11:15, when an adult will rise to leave for First Day School and
children who wish to participate follow.

You may find it helpful to reread this brochure during Meeting for
Worship."

...to see what unravels
 
Discussion of "dairy bar" led me to thinking about my grandfather (who would have been 113 2 days ago).  He was a dairy farmer - working for Melvill Dewey at the Lake Placid Club and then for Bert Hubbard (son and successor of Elbert Hubbard) in East Aurora (Buffalo) NY.  This led me to look up more on the Roycrofters and I came across their Dictionary "Concocted on Rainy Days for the Divertisement of the Gloomsters"

I think it's about 60% likely that I'll get to interview Miller in advance
of Actors Theatre of Louisville's upcoming production of "All My Sons."  If
so, I'm going to hammer away at finding the historical source of the play.
But after reviewing as much information as I could obtain, I'm increasingly
persuaded it was the Curtis-Wright scandal.  The widespread "tank"
references to the play appear to have sprung from nowhere; they seem to have
spread among reviewers and writers without any substantive verification.

As nearly as I can tell, the Gussow book does not, in fact, mention
defective parts for tanks.  It does mention that his first mother-in-law,
who was from Berea, Ohio, was the source of the story.  The Curtis-Wright
plant was in Ohio, though way downstate.  I asked Gussow about this in a
phone conversation a couple of days ago, and he said the Curtis-Wright link
sounded very plausible, and emphasized that Miller himself has never
explicitly identified the historical source--he has just mentioned the
conversation that set the idea in motion.  In the introduction to the
collected plays, 1957, Miller also mentions the conversation.

I think the Curtis-Wright scandal would have been major news in Ohio during
the war, and a source of immense interest.  After all, it was the source of
a number of stories in the New York Times, and it must have been a 90 day
wonder in Ohio.

The interesting thing is that in every account, Miller says that his
mother-in-law told him of a girl who had discovered the perfidy and turned
in her father.  Miller says that by the time the conversation was over he
had turned the character from a daughter into a son (one of the oldest, and
most reliable conflicts in the history of drama, after all).  I think this
is a case of intentional or inadvertent false memory.  The parallels between
the Curtis-Wright case and the facts in All My Sons are just too strong to
ignore: the scandal occurs in Ohio, it involves airplanes, and in both the
play and the Curtis-Wright case P-40s are identified as planes with defects.
  More details as the facts emerge.

It's sequiturish for the chunk of the American public who think that
catching the bad guy who was the mastermind behind the 9/11 attacks (that's
who we caught, right?), etc., legitimizes the war beyond reproach.

It's inflammatory for others, but maybe that helps CBS sell advertising too.

I must have missed a generation.  I would have thought
perfectly obvious that a child's digestive system is
not ready to handle cereal at two weeks of age.
Neither puppies nor kittens should be on cereal at two
weeks.  I never heard of this before.

I liked my brick front steps so much and there was enough leftover brick
for them to do the side steps.  (The top of the side steps was already
brick.  I had them just do the sides of the side steps.)  I'm very happy
with the result.

I hate, though, that I have no before pictures of either the front steps
or the side steps.  I thought surely I did, but I haven't been able to
find them.  The only one I found that showed the front steps at all is
this distant one:

http://www.msstate.edu/Archives/Words-L/Rooms/front.jpg

That doesn't show the true ugliness of the concrete steps.  So there's
no contrast with these three after shots (actually, they're all
in-progress shots -- the first two being those I posted the other day
when they were doing the front steps, the third one being one I took a
little while ago -- I'll do some real after shots after they come back
and clean them, which they're going to do in a few days):

My eyes have been fine since whenever it was they got well.  I've lost
track of the days.  The left eye never did go through the whole to-do
that the right one did, so I never had to pry it open.  It stopped
oozing at the same time the right one got well.  The ears are another
matter.  They're still driving me totally crazy.

You will be able to advise me about such matters when I eventually buy a
house. I will probably take my condo profit in 3 years or so and buy a
house.

Sender: owner-words-l@LISTSERV.UGA.EDU

Anybody looking for a malamute?  He sounds like a good dog for somebody
into large, scary dogs:

*******************

I have a 12-18 month old male Alaskan Malamute who needs a home.
"Choctaw" was dumped about 6 weeks ago and I took him home and have been
treating his mange (localized to right rump area) and he has had all
shots and his bordetella.  Choctaw's mange is responding to treatment
and his hair is growing back in nicely, however,  needs  one more
dipping for his mange.  (My husband and I are willing to pay for this
last dipping, )

I already have 4 rescues and cannot keep Choctaw.  Our dogs are inside
dogs and without a fenced yard, Choctaw roams the countryside and we are
concerned that he may be shot or otherwise harmed.

We will be surrendering Choctaw to the Oktibbeha Humane Society as early
as Friday.  Any assistance is greatly appreciated.

Thank you
Ardra

Just to further inform you abt other people's health habits, as a rule of
thumb, if whatever the dr told you to take isn't working by
a) the end of the medicine (antibiotic) or
b) a week to 10 days

<Go Back To The Dr.>
(or in the case of ER, go to your regular Dr.)
and ask whether X appears to be improving, whether the meds appear to be
helping, what else needs to be done, if anything, and when you can expect
improvement!

I still have one day left of the medicine.  And, according to its

Their size, I guess.  Or shape?  I don't know, but I do know that many
people (who aren't into dogs) are scared of dogs that look like that.

Another option is to phone your dr. tomorrow morning, tell him what's
going on with you, including the progression of symptoms, and ask him
if you should come in.

Their size, to some extent---also their appearance, sort of a whitish
husky.  And malemutes and huskies have a wolf-like appearance.  As to
scary, Sheba, who spends her days across the street with Grandpa Parsons,
is a full-bred husky and one of the most likeable dogs I've met---this,
despite her being rather mistreated (or maltreated) as a young dog.

The dogs I find scary---or at least, those I tend to stay away from---are
Dobermans and pit bulls.  They have been bred to be watch/attack
dogs.  Most other breeds have other priorities.

...and rightfully so.  Even for the
time, it's crap.

If anyone can nominate a more treacly,
cloying, manipulative piece of garbage,
I'd like to know what it is.

And how did it come to be known as a
Christmas (sorry, "holiday season")
movie?  Suicide.  Nice.

Ugh.  "Every time a bell rings..."

Ugh**2.  Those fearsome seraphs from
Isaiah 6 must have been driven to

Ugh**3.

Bring on Ralphie.

I've known some huskies who were <questionable> re their friendliness,
but I don't think I've ever heard of a malamute who wasn't
friendly/lovable.  They do have a mean look, though.

Yes, I do not cozy up to a doberman or pit bull unless it is clearly
making friendly gestures to me.  Ditto rottweilers, though I must admit
that I've never personally known an unnice rottweiler.

It's got the right ingredients.  Think about it -- Christmas tree, music
  (was it "O Come All Ye Faithful" she kept playing over and over?), an
angel, wise men bringing gifts, a saving.  And it's even got Scrooge.

I think I mentioned before that I had never seen it until people on
Words-L were talking about it.  Now I see it regularly.

        I wouldn't use the term, but I understand what it means.  I
think there probably are a few places called "dairy bars"
around -- or were around when I was growing up -- and I
don't mean Dottio's, where the neighborhood dairy farmers
went to drink ...

        I was a strep-B baby, so my mom couldn't even touch me for 4
days after I was born.  We had lots of ear infections and
streps as kids -- all of us were formula fed and both
parents smoked.  Ana is MUCH healthier than I ever was as a
kid.  She is almost never sick.

I'm careful around Dobermans I don't know, but the three Dobermans I've
known well have been hands-down the sweetest, most affectionate dogs I've
been friends with.

One was protective of its family, but warmed up quickly to strangers; the
other two were sweet to everybody.

Spybot Search & Destroy is one of the best anti-spyware programs, and it's
free in both find and remove modes:
http://www.safer-networking.org/index.php?page=spybotsd

Spyware and adware is fine if you feel what you receive by using it
outweighs what it takes from you.  One of the problems with spyware is that
it's not always transparent about what it takes from you, though.

Ad-supported Eudora is a good value, I think, and I use it myself.

Not the most competent coverup, I'm afraid:

The call to report the error had an error! That just puts

Consulting http://www.diacenter.org/km/musiccd.html one finds
a scientifically proven fact: "the most unwanted subjects for
lyrics are cowboys and holidays".

As we knew all along, NOBODY likes Christmas songs on autorepeat.

Yet, they are everywhere.

Who has wrought this paradox?

It's the dowager empresses of the family, with loong-stifled
power-trips, enforcing cheer and exacting their revenge.

Question them and you might find a thing or two about the
movie.

G Grandaughter brought home a story the
5th grade teacher presented on the origin of
the Christmas candy cane.  Something about
it's in the shape of a shepherd's crook and if
you turn it upside down it's J for Jesus, and
the red stands for his blood and the white
stands for his death.

Thought I might refer her to the Urban Legends
page where, of course, it is identified as false.
There's lots more I would like to say but I'm
not involved in this generation's stuff.  

Wonder if those kids still feel like eating
candy canes?  Ugh.

I thought that the candy cane, like the three gold balls of the pawn shop, represented St Nicholas.  I never hear the upside down J story.

What kink of OS do you have (it was a typo, but I like it, I like
it)?

If you have XP, right click on My
Computer|Properties|Advanced|Performance Settings|Advanced|
Change Virtual Memory
(this is also control panel | system)

For Windows 2000 right click on my computer|properties|advanced|
performance options|virtual memory change

You can either set it to System managed size (or something like
that in Win2K) or set the initial size to 1.5 of your actual
memory (that's what mine is set at, and I never see that
message).  So for 256 MB of memory, set the initial at 384 and
the maximum at 768.

There's a pretty addictive word scramble game "Fowl Words" available at http://www.kewlbox.com/games/game.cfm?gameId=91 for those so inclined.

You might have to sign in there, but it's also available at http://www.fhm.com

Have fun!

A poem by Richard Avedon.

SIGHT SORE

To find oneself among the cream
Of New York's social brace and beam
One must see sights. One has to bare
The Battery, Bronx, and God Knows Where.
One simply has to circulate
>From Ulysses S. Grant to the Empire State—
>From the Museum of Art to that triple alliance,
The museums of Industry, Nature and Science.
Socially I've missed the mark. I never got further than Central Park!

I've heard the same joke many times before, with 'tech writer'
substituted for 'Norwegian'.

I just heard from Jimmy, and he is going to California on the 27th.

That doesn't preclude a gathering at The Red Cat, but I doubt that
I'll be there.

perhaps the first time in 2 years, he has a paycheck now. Startled, I
asked what his occupation is: tech writer.

Anything is ok with me.  I'll arrive late afternoon the 25th and depart
early morning the 29th.  Everything in between is blank.

Apparently you are.  I didn't realize that you didn't know that Smokey
is retiring because he has a nose tumor.  He'll be at the bowl game but
will ride in elegance instead of running out with the players.  The vets
say that they caught it early and that they're hoping he will have some
happy retirement time.  Smokey IX will be in place by the beginning of
next fb season.

I read about Smokey in today's Starkville Daily News.  It does not
appear to be in the online edition, though.  The SDN website is quite sucky.

doctor's office a clinic?  I went to see him this afternoon.  Called
this morning and was able to get an appointment for 3:45.  I took the
medicine remains with me to show him what the ER doctor had prescribed.
  He approved of the choices but said it's always better to avoid ERs --
that you sit there waiting for hours and catching who knows what.

He said that the Z medicine Zithrowhatever would continue to work for
several more days even though I took the last pill this morning -- that
otherwise he would prescribe some more.  Instead, though, he prescribed
something named Prednisone.  And he prescribed more of the same "for
congestion" pills the ER doctor had prescribed, saying that I needed
more of them that I had left.  (I later wondered about that.  I have
enough of the old ones left to last several more days.  He prescribed
enough to last several weeks.)  And he prescribed a cough syrup that he
said had one of the same ingredients as the pain pills and that if I
wanted to use them instead, that was ok.  I asked him which would be
better for the cough, and he said the syrup probably would, so I'm going
to use it instead of the pain pills since the worst of the ear pain has
subsided.

He first looked at my ears and said that indeed I was right -- that I
had an ear problem -- that the eardrums were funny-looking -- something
about strange colors and shapes and debris, I think.

I asked him whether this stuff would make me better by next Thursday,
telling him that I was flying to NYC that day, and he said that he hoped
so.  I will still be a walking medicine cabinet, of course.  (But I
won't be a threat to others since funny-looking eardrums aren't catagious.)

I had to turn the volume way up to hear it, but it was of course worth it.

Did he warn you about the side effects of this?

He didn't say anything about side-effects, but Wmart of course gave me
the usual sheet of info.  I haven't looked at it yet.  Actually, he did
say something, now that I think about it.  When he handed me the
prescriptions, he said something like, "You're gonna be pretty doped up
with all this stuff."  I said that was ok, that it was a good time in my
life since I had few commitments for right now -- nothing but a couple
of parties that I might or might not bother going to.

I'll be so glad when I can hear again.  I saw a friend in Wmart when I
went to get the prescriptions filled, but we couldn't have a
conversation since I couldn't hear.  Ditto somebody else I ran into
earlier today in Winn-Dixie.  And I couldn't hear the nurse call my name
at the doctor's office, even though I was sitting right by the door she
was standing in.  When nobody else got up, I said, "Did you by any
chance say Natalie Maynor?"  She nodded.  I could hear my doctor a bit
better since he has a louder voice that the mousy nurse and since he
probably realized he needed to talk loud enough to penetrate the gunked
ears.

One's best friend re prescription drugs is usually an excellent
pharmacist. I often get my best advice from mine.

Two weeks ago, a friend of mine, at wit's end because of conflicting
medical advice re prescriptions went, at my suggestion to Long's for
advice - she got what she needed and her problems ended.

We call our health care providers here clinicians because the term includes
nurse practitioners, doctors, physician assistants.

That may be part of my problem.  I do leave it on all
day, which is just sheer laziness.  I received good
advice from everyone who responded, and thing the
problem is solved, but I'll also remember to TURN IT
OFF.  Evelyn, what's catznap?

Today was a beautiful day---clear, bright, temperature right about freezing
or a little above, not much wind.  I took one of my favorite carriage-road
walks, one that I've written about before on words-l---the loop past Upper
Hadlock Pond and the waterfall.  This time I took the digital
camera.  Selected results are at:

under the title Winter Walk.

Please read the product info sheet carefully.
Prednisone is a steroid, so is powerful stuff.

I think a majority of us may consult our pharmacists,
but I'd be a bit careful about spreading the
information far and wide.  A pharmacist has no license
to diagnose or prescribe, and he doesn't need any
troubles with authorities. :-]

Santa came early for me and brought me a Canon PowerShot S400, a tiny little
thing. My Minolta DiMage S414 was just too big and bulky to be convenient,
plus its auto-focus didn't work worth a hoot.

? How can one get prescription medicine from a pharmacist without a
prescription?  And why would one have conflicting medical advice re
prescriptions?  Running around to various doctors?  Maybe it was just
luck that the ER doctor and my regular doctor saw eye-to-eye on the
appropriate prescriptions for my malady.

I looked at it after Karen mentioned side-effects but didn't notice
anything frightening.  It said something about possibly keeping you
awake, and that reminded me that my doctor did mention that.  When I
asked if if I was supposed to take all four pills at the same time, he
said yes -- like at whatever time of day I chose.  Then he said that on
second thought I should probably take them in the morning after today --
to go on and take the first dose when I got home with the prescription
late this afternoon but then to switch to mornings because some people
found this medicine a stimulant.  I took the first four-pill dose
whenever I first got home from Wmart -- between 5 and 5:30 -- and
haven't noticed any particular effect.

Aren't steroids what athletes take to run faster or whatever?  I wonder
what that has to do with fluid behind eardrums.

I never even see the pharmacists.  Youths work at the drop-off and

Neat!  I love my Canon PowerShot.  It's a lesser model than yours, but I

Yes to steroids and athletes.  As to ears, that is not

you're probably fine.

I don't think that is normally an issue. I go for weeks without

Steroids reduce inflammation (swelling) - it's the pressure
in the ears that's causing your pain, and also blocking the
tubes to affect your hearing (and incidentally, permitting
infections to fester there - your ear canal tissue probably
swelled due to a mild cold, closing them off and creating
the climate in which your ear infection grew).

People like my mother, who has rheumatoid arthritis, in
which the swelling stretches tendons and contributes to
crippling, often take prednisone and other similar drugs.

A corticosteroid, Natalie, not an anabolic steroid. It won't build

Alyce took it. I got into trouble with her for talking about the side

I just returned from Amahl and the Night Visitors.
Paul is certainly getting a workout, and I enjoyed
the puppets tremendously. It was lovely and fun,
thanks BrP!

An acquaintance of mine was diagnosed as having lupus,
and Prednisone was prescribed.  It turned out to be a
misdiagnosis (I think lupus is hard to pin down), and
the Prednisone had nearly permanently damaged her
health.  This may have been due to the quantity that
she had taken.  Any competent doctor surely knows its
properties, and appears to be a highly effective drug.

Yes, full house - in spite of being in conflict with
Syracuse Stage's Wizard of Oz (another friend of mine
is the Cowardly Lion).


I got to see my other friend Karen, the puzzlemaker -
her sisterinlaw is one of the puppeteers.

Sara is here.  Have been listening to
stories from her trip to India.  
Fasssssscccccinating.  Poor girl.
So much to learn.  So little time.
She loved it!  But I'm afraid they
gave her a hard time.  If I had been
there, a few well-placed personalities
would have had to deal with me.

Eeek, I wasn't paying attention. We're still thinking of dinner at Red Cat,
right?

Does Saturday night work for everybody?

(Janet, so far we have Natalie, Marie, me, with Theresa and chopped liver as
maybes. Natalie and I will be around Friday and Saturday if you'd like to do
something else.)

So far as I know, one cannot. Please note that I referenced <advice>.

And why would one have conflicting medical advice re >prescriptions?

Needing emergency attention over a weekend and getting advice and
prescriptions from the ER different from one's regular dr. Or, as in
my friend's case, having both a reg dr and a psychiatrist - plus, on
this occasion, an ER visit - and continuing symptoms.

I run into people I know almost everywhere I go - I was in the Armadillo
one night and ran into a guy who lived as my neighbor in the other
half of a duplex rented by abr 20 students in PA. I think of Austin as a
place where everyone turns up, eventually - part of what keeps it weird,
I guess.

I can tell.

So what did I get wrong? All of it, probably.

Elizabeth Peters wrote whodunits set in Egypt (?) in Victorian times.
I think Karen's referring to the protaganist in these books - she's
gutsy, ahead of her times etc. I haven't read the books myself...

I'm glad Sara's back.

My friend, Edie, is in Bangalore for two weeks and met my folks
the other day. They have all sorts of events planned together.
I can't wait to hear her take on the trip.

Thanks for the explanation!  The pain was on the wane, presumably from
the Zithwhatever, which, as I said yesterday, my doctor said is still at
work even though I'm through taking it (its package also said that).
But the not hearing and the stuffed-ear feeling was no better at all,
maybe worse.  I've watched a couple of tv movies lately, including
"Christmas Carol" last night, and I wished for subtitles.  It didn't

have helped with the Hallmark movie I watched night before last.  It's
odd to watch a movie when it literally does mean watching -- as in
watching only -- not hearing.

So far in the century or the whole century?  I would not be willing to
go with either of the above for the whole century, unless the century
turns out to be quite bland.

>And ordinary people normally know the difference between corticosteroid

I'm an ordinary person and I know the difference.  Corticosteriods reduce
inflammation.  They are injected into shoulders to free up range of
motion.  They are injected into heels to relieve the symptoms of plantar
fasciitis.  But they don't heal shoulders or heels.  Anabolic steroids
allow athletes to build larger muscles.  They don't make larger
muscles.  But along with work-outs they help create them.

I'm trying to convince myself that I'm having effects, as in good ones,
like that maybe the globbed ears are slightly less globbed, but I think
that's just wishful thinking.  They're no worse, though.  And I have
noticed no negative effects from the medicine.

Do you think I should find some kind of athletic contest to enter while
I'm under the effect of steroids?  I don't really feel much like
entering a marathon, even if I can find one.  Should I perhaps call the
women's basketball coach and ask whether it's legal for retired faculty
to substitute on the team?  Maybe they could use me.  They're not doing
as well this year as in the past few years, mainly because the superstar
  graduated last year.  She was something like first draft choice of the
women's pro basketball organization.  I see her name in the news
occasionally (probably just Starkville news, of course) as doing
important things for whatever professional team she's playing for.  Her
name is Latoya Thomas.  Or maybe it's Thompson.  Or maybe it's something
else entirely.  I know her first name is Latoya.  It's the last name I'm
less sure of.

There are different types of steroids.  Some (anabolic steroids) promote
the increase of muscle mass---these have been popular with athletes in some
sports and certain governors of western states.  Others are corticosteroids
(Prednisone, for example) that reduce inflammation and swelling.  These
also are popular with athletes who are in rigorous training to improve
speed, endurance, etc.  They don't make one run faster or longer, but they
do reduce the after-effects of rigorous exercise so that training workouts
can be longer and more frequent---in other words, they reduce the recovery
time.

I think that most of the prescription-type nasal sprays are also
corticosteroids.

I bet I know!  I bet my doctor is po'ed because his parents have come to
my big xmas parties but he has never been invited.  I bet he wants to

It's an interesting problem, isn't it? How old is your TV? Everything made
in the last 10 yrs or so has built-in closed captions. You should be able
to turn it on with the remote's menu button - or some tvs actually have
separate cc button on the remote. early 1990's models had a switch you threw
somewhere in the back - but it's a long time since it required a separate
decoder.

If you are having trouble understanding speech, it's certainly worth
checking.

And ordinary people normally know the difference between corticosteroid

I have a vague memory of your telling horror stories to Alyce about
something she was taking, wondering why you felt compelled to do so.
But I don't remember exactly what the horror stories were.  Nothing in
the description I read on the Wmart sheet suggests that this is even an
evil drug, much less an evil, evil one.

This is the kind of detail longer conversations with drs yield.
"IMFTATMd".

When I had recurring bronchitis from exposure to smoke and molds, I
developed an asthmatic wheeze and was given a couple of inhalers. One was a
corticosteroid, which the dr explained carefully, including the side-effects
of water retention, facial hair growth/ balding, etc. (which, by the way,
you'll be unlikely to encounter on a short-use encounter) that I would avoid
by using the inhaler rather than a pill.

Steroids, being pretend hormones, affect the body like hormonal upswings
 do - with the effects being cumulative over time, and worse in some
 than in others, of course.

What makes you think either will come to trial?

Somebody tell me again where the Red Cat is.  I'll be at the Wellington,
871 7th Ave.  Can't remember 7th and what.  Need to look at the website
again.  Also don't have the phone number of the Wellington handy.  I'll
be cranking up my tracfone for the trip -- phone # 662-242-0723.  I
remember that it failed me just north of NYC last summer when I was
trying to call love,judith.  Don't know how it will work in NYC.

I should cc love,judith on this note.  I was telling her earlier that
she and Paul should come down for this occasion, but I haven't been able
to think clearly or communicate much in the past week because of my ear rot.

Judith:  A Words-L event is brewing for Saturday, December 27, at Jimmy
Bradley's Red Cat in NYC.  You and Paul are needed!  And Anne-the-FOWL.

Now I have a terrible dilemma. My efforts to convince V we need a
romantic getaway to a place we have neither one ever considered going for fun,
have failed (predictably). Not only that, a fellow writer has invited me to
a gathering that night on the grounds that his wife is "getting curious abt me"
(understandable certainly, since we typically sit up talking abt writing till
3 or 4 in the am a couple of nights a month) and wd like to meet me.

Yes. I think this is true, that everyone turns up eventually. I had

though.

I'm far from being a Peters afficionado myself, but I think the protagonist
(Amelia Peabody) is relevant because she is naive in many ways - for instance
about sex, initially - and meets difficult characters.

The explanation for her "modern" attitudes in the books, if I recall, is that
she grew up far from social training, hence is lacking Victorian biases -
not so much ahead of her time.

Mostly, though, I was just being snarky.

We had just enough precipitation yesterday (light snow, a bit of rain
earlier) to create black ice conditions last night when the temp dropped.
One man was killed in west Knoxville when his car slid on the black ice.
Temps were in the teens and will not be much above freezing today. There
was enough snow to coat treed and grass - so it's very pretty out.

And - I am, for the first time since I moved - spending most of the day at
home doing a few things I need to and mostly what I want to. I made a
double cap and prepared French Toast for breakfast - what a treat! I was
supposed to go to the barn, but the back roads are still icy, so I will
not do that.

Now I shall lie down so I can keep my right knee elevated for a while and
read more chapters of that book I have to review soon - and also the three
days of the WSJ that I did not get to last week. But first I may brew
another cap ...

UT closed yesterday for a week - finally I can slow down a bit as I
prepare for my trip to Gethsemani on Monday.

Ah, winter!

Phew! I hereby declare Bethany wordsler with the most fatiguing conversation
style. I've wisely refrained from particpating but just observing these
bouts tires
the heck out of me. I've never been in court - is this an example of court
discourse?

There seems to be lotsa bad blood, vendetta almost, between
the Santa Barbara police officials and Michael Jackson (according
to Keith Olbermann). Jackson's in deep trouble.

PS I sent out two posts together last time. Too much coffee.
I meant to add that I love playing amateur analyst on Bethany's
discourse style (on this service). It's irresistible.

Karen has two responses to illnesses:

The illness is deathly serious.
The drugs prescribed for said illness will kill you with
their side effects.

Now, I have had serious problems with drug side effects (the
big reason I won't get a flu shot), but I'm still not sure
how one survives an illness according to Karen.

        And my school district is closed until January 5th.  I have a
stack of papers at least a foot tall to grade, and I need to
do a bit of planning for next semester, oh, and write my
finals, but it will be two gloooooorious weeks of rest and
relaxation.  No students!  I'm just praying there's nothing
more in that stack of essays that is going to send me to see
the social worker when I get back (the social worker and I
are becoming total buds these days).

        Well, Ana and I are off to ride this afternoon.  YaY!

Stop this right now.  One does not brew a cap.  I hate this

cappuccino, as espresso is made by forcing steam through coffee
not by letting it sit in boiling water.

The bad effects are cumulative, and don't manifest themselves early.  I
think they unaccumulate when you stop using them, but you don't want to use
them longer than necessary.

Aha.  I should have thought of that!  I became aware of it (of the fact
that it's on most relatively new tv sets) back a couple of years ago
when worrying about my mother's hearing (which was always bad -- or at
least ever since she had scarlet fever as a young child -- but became
really, really bad in old age).  I'm pretty sure that I checked then and
discovered that my tv set (vintage about 1995) does have it.  I was
going to give her mine and take her old one.  Then I mentioned it to my
RRB&SIL, who were always looking for possible xmas presents, and they
gave her one with it.  I think it was xmas before last.  At most it was
the one before that.  It's the one I have sitting in this room right
now, the one that developed an annoying ping somehow in the move from
the nursing home here.  (But I bet the ping wouldn't be annoying if I
turned it on right now with my deafness.)  I use it only for its
built-in vcr since it's not connected to antenna or dish and thus gets
no tv -- just extreme fuzz.  Iow, it's not relevant in how I could have
turned on the captions in watching these recent movies.  But, as I said,
I'm almost sure my older tv also has that option.

You are a wise woman, clo.

Thanks.  I must say that your reply was much more informative than Karen's.

 From an Iraqi JR or a US one?

I'm suddenly trying to remember what happened to JR.  I have it stuck in
my head that he was in Parkland Hospital in Dallas when my RRB was
interning there.  But that can't be.  That was several years after JFK's
death.  (My RRB did take a picture at some point of the bed where JFK
died.  Why, I'm not sure -- why he took the picture, I mean.  It was
just a hospital bed.)

The second problem is easily solvable.  The writer and his wife are
locals, right?  You are present locally much of the time.  There will be
other opportunities to get together.  If a meeting needs to occur soon,
you can suggest that the three of you get together for coffee or
something.  You must tell the writer that you have to be in NYC that
night.  I'm not as sure about the solution to the V problem.  Would he
be <miffed> if you went without him?  It's not as if you didn't try to
get him to go.

Am I mutant for finding it reasonable to believe that material given me
by a pharmacist re a drug has more credibility than hearsay from
somebody with degrees in Japanese linguistics?

Did you ever consider going to med school or pharmacy school, btw?
Serious question.  I don't remember ever having known anybody with as
much interest in medical conditions and medications as you seem to have.
  A medical career would strike me as an obvious choice.  Or is this
interest something you developed later in life?

Thanks.  I am writing this upon my NYC folder.  (Could probably find the
address upon arrival in The City, of course, but it's nice having these
things written down in my folder.)

Pharmacists used to be more respected than ministers it was revealed in one
study. I don't know if that is still true. I retain these little pieces of
information but can't remember anything.

I've never been there and don't really know whether I'll ever turn up
there.  For some reason I don't find myself in Texas very often.  Had
never been there at all until adulthood.  I think my first trip was when
I went to Houston to visit somebody I was dating at the time who was
doing his residency there.  I remember that the plane was delayed in
leaving Jackson because it was full of Ole Miss football fans shrieking
"Hoddy Toddy."  The pilot kept announcing that the plane couldn't take
off until they shut up.  I've been to Houson a time or two since then
and to Dallas a time or two.  And I went to El Paso once.  But that's
about it for my Texas experience (except for many, many, many hours of
transcribing tapes of interviews with people in small towns in the
Brazos Valley -- I was quite intimate with all those places like Mumford
and Chapel Hill and Snoot and so on).

I used to find myself in Texas once every other year or so when my
brother lived in Houston. Austin (and San Antonio) were good day/
weekend trips. And once New Orleans.

I just took out a yummy-looking spinach and artichoke dip out
of the oven. Can't wait to taste, it looks delish. I had some
frozen'n'microwaved dip at a friend's house the other day
and decided to try making it.

I didn't really have a recipe - started with a simple cream
sauce, almost a bechamel with milk, not cream, and nutmeg,
added grated parmesan and leftover Gruyere ends, added
blanched and squeeze-dried spinach and chopped artichoke
hearts to the cheese sauce. When the consistency looked
right I popped it into the oven with more parmesan on
top. It was in for 30 mins or so. I didn't go overboard with
the cheese so hopefully it won't be too too rich. I was trying
to be light. It should be great with toasted pita triangles.

I've been on a real greens kick of late and have been
consuming huge amounts of broccoli rabe, spinach and
baby bok choy. This is a good addition to my greens
reportoire.

Who in the world makes coffee by letting it sit in boiling water? I would
not call that brewing. I also would not call the product coffee.

It is true that the narrowest, most literal sense of brew is that of
making (ale, beer, and the like) by infusion, boiling, and fermentation
(paraphrasing the online OED). But another widespread 'transferred' use is
that of "mak[ing] by mixing several ingredients" (online OED).

It's not an interest, Natalie. It's self-defense. Which is pretty much
the reason I became interested in computers.

And a major financial scandal at the Bailey Savings and Loan,
made more better by cheer and good will!  The Wall Street Journal
did a nice piece years ago on what a few everyday financiers
thought about the shortfall in funds and how it was resolved.  I
clipped it and saved it, must be around somewhere.

One reason I never miss it is that I first saw it one lonely Xmas
on German TV when I was in Munich in the Army.  I sat there
feeling good about not caring about this forced holiday, and
ended up blubbering into my beer (Paulaner Pilsner).  I can't
remember whether the movie was dubbed into or subtitled in
German, but I understood it.  Hoo-ah!

I've seen them in newspaper articles, not scientific or medical journals.
Are newspapers pitched at ordinary people?

Newspapers are supposedly pitched at about eighth-grade level, aren't
they?  So I guess you're right.  I am obviously not out of fourth or
fifth grade yet.  Seriously, I thought I was of about average
knowledgeability level.  Obviously not.  I wonder what percent I fall in
of U.S. adults in knowledge level.  I doubt that there have been any
polls done on how many U.S. adults can tell you what corticosteroid and
anabolic mean.  What would your guess be?  90% 95% 75%  Iow, am I in the
bottom 5% or 10% or 25% or what in knowledgeability?

So you also do primary research before believing anything?  Have you
always?  Did you not trust the logarithm charts your teacher gave you in
school?  What about a recipe?  I guess I'm lucky, but I find myself
trusting thousands of things every day.  I trust the time/temperature
number if I call to make sure my watch is right.  I trust what I read
was last night's low temperature.  I am skeptical of some things I hear
if I know they're from questionable sources.  But in general I am not
skeptical and would find a life crammed full of primary research
incredibly difficult.  So yes, I consider myself quite lucky.

I saw two today... one when I was crossing over the Chain of
  Rocks Canal into Illinois, and one on the way back over
the Mississippi River. Ana and I are going to take the
binocs out this week.

AND I managed to hit a flying lead change today.  I haven't
even cantered more than three or four times since I've been
back riding.

Double bonus.  I am truly LUCKY.

Why?  How are my myriad illnesses different?  I did manage to reach
retirement (and beyond) without ever missing a day of work from illness.
  Does that make my illnesses different?

IME, there are many people for whom Karen's outlook as reported by you isn't
far off. They may not die of the original condition, yet the medications wear
down organs, lower resistance, etc, so that life though prolonged is beset
with other medical problems. EG, my mother who has heart damage from aspirin,
diabetes due to longterm prednisone and methyltrexate use, along with
decreased liver function, damaged immune system, and other serious events.

On the other hand, she isn't bedridden as her cousin was with RA before the
"good drugs" came along.
When she dies, it will probably be of something that was aided, if not
caused, by the damage from the meds. In the meantime, she gets to walk
and hold her grandchildren, and spend a fortune on meds.

In darker moments, he sees such "invites" as a clever ruse to mask the

year. Miffed would be the best thing he would be - he's <miffed> if I

Still working on this.

There is a difference between my response to Natalie's myriad

Who are these ordinary people, and why would they have
cause to know the difference, unless they used either
or both medications?  That's the only reason Natalie
is asking the questions.

I'm not sure that ordinary people know the difference, but they do
know what anabolic steroids are--even Natalie knew that. I only know
corticosteroids because of a long, intimate acquaintance with various
of their ilk.

That's "cowboy coffee", innit?

Also, the <native guides> we'd hire on
Canadian fishing trips made it that way.

Damn, if Starbucks could make coffee
that good, I might become a customer.

I said I knew the word "steroids" and associated it with athletes.  I
wouldn't call that knowing what "anabolic steroids" are.

It's the only way I made coffee for ages.  It's called instant.  It's
the only kind of coffee my mother liked and is also what my brother
prefers.  I don't remember exactly when I switched from instant to
non-instant.  I think I decided that non-instant was just as easy --
easier in a way.  I load the stuff into the pot at night and flip the
switch when I get up in the morning.  But I could live happily with instant.

Just some bits from my morning:

1.  Saw book with title "Tantric Sex for Idiots"
2.  Stepped in 6" high puddle
3.  Saw a hand-painted tie with the last 25 or so America's Cup winning
boats on it
4.  Bought two book lights, gonna put one on each page for reading on the
bus.
5.  Bought some Bose headphones, got tired of waiting for Tushar's (which
would still be welcome because they're probably better than these, which
cost only $20)
6.  Saw a movie listing brought back from Paris recently.  It had a blurb
on a movie called in French "Crush:  Les __________  Frustrees" and
supposedly titled in English "Bad Fucker."  I have googled and don't know
what the hell?  It had Andie MacDowell in it.

It's take me half an hour to rip one-eighth of the current
(broken) zipper.

I'm planning to baste in the new zipper, and then resurrect my sewing
machine to sew in the new zipper. Should I do a flat-felled look seam?
(2 lines of stitching 1/4" apart.) That's what was there. Any hints or
clues are welcome.

        Not really.  It's interesting to watch your responses to

I used to do this as a living. Really. (Camping repairs, back when
R was born).

The most important thing to know about zippers is how stretchy the fabric
the teeth are attached to is. Pin one side and pull the garment taut, making
sure the zipper isn't allowed to stretch too much.
Then zip the zipper closed, and pin the second side so that it will match
the first. Unzip it to sew, but make sure that again that the garment is
taut, and the zipper doesn't stretch out of shape.

Also, make sure not to sew too close to the teeth (you need to be 1/8 - 1/4
inch away so that the zipper pull has room to maneuver.

I personally don't do two lines of sewing. My logic is that if the stitches
tear out, you can re-attach; but if the stitching is so firm that stress
tears the fabric, you have a tougher problem. The only time I'd put a 2d row
in is if I sewed too far from the zipper itself, making it seem kind of
flimsily attached.

Thanks. I'm assuming I can follow the previous lines.

Okay.

I have now ripped half the old zipper out, and a little bit of the
2nd half. My aim tonight is to get it pinned and basted in. Then I
need to make sure my sewing machine works and do some practice
stitching. I don't remember where the zipper foot is, or if I have
one... But the actual zipper-sewing will take place tomorrow, probably
after meeting unless I feel really confident and ambitious. It's going
to look odd anyway because I couldn't find a zipper or thread to match
the jacket.

Clo - have you studied variation in ASL? The two who are speaking have
just created a video, "WHATÕS YOUR SIGN FOR PIZZA? An Introduction to
Variation in Amsrican Sign Language" (Ceil Lucas and Robert Bayley)
(narrated by Clayton Valli).

I actually don't do a signed language. I do "cued" spoken languages
(visually represented with a method called "Cued Speech").

I am interested in SL structure, however. I'll see if I can get away.
Sometimes Feb is good.

I'm sure you saw the video on the news of the FedEx
guys bailing out of their crashed plane in Memphis.
They actually talked about it this AM on "What Do You
Know?".  It's a scary thing to see, but somehow heartening.

I have studied it, but only casually - I have read, for instance, earlier
work by Valli and Lucas, and actually met Lucas once; I have also worked
with Judy Kegl on cueing, and had many conversations w/ her abt interesting
aspects of ASL history and syntax.

Why not just write "celebate" and be done with it.

Knowing how fragile life is, and that none of us have all the answers, makes

Roasted chestnuts, Florentine crepe, roast beef dipped, chicken pot pie,

were told you need a $50,000 Scottish press to make them. Pastry was wonderful.

Yes, she is. I thought the tomato would put her off as well, but it
was homemade sauce, so it was chunkier rather than, er, saucier, so
they weren't all over everything. It had a teeny bit of Italian
sausage, and lots of portobello mushrooms because they were on sale.
(Which is why I made the lasagna in the first place.)

This cat really has unsupportable tastes.

She always fusses at me when I eat, because she thinks she should get
food when I do. But she doesn't like things that I eat for snacks,
like nuts or fruit, or, this time of year, cranberry bread. But I let
her taste the plate afterwards, so she knows she's not missing out on
anything. (This cat is such an optimist!) Anyway, I put down the
lasagna plate, which had a little sauce on it, and she licked the
plate clean.

She was the guest of very wealthy people and
was invited to attend several parties with them
. . at which Sara was singled out by a group of
movie producers, etc. who kept trying to get
her into world-political discussions she did not
want to be part of, and who laid such heavy
criticism of our country upon her poor head
she was in pain from smiling and holding back
what she would like to have said had she not
been a guest.  They even told her it was America's
fault that India has not become the world power it
should have been.  Wow, that was a heavy load
to take to bed.  Wonder if they couldn't have
thought of some other obvious reasons.

Some of their comments were very hurtful and
I felt bad when I heard them, then realized she
could have been in Hollywood and had just as
strange a conversation with a few movie producers there.

Yes, always. Metal teeth used to be attached to what was essentially bias

It's really very funny. I went to TISLR (Theoretical Issues in Sign Language
Research) in Montreal. She - and a group of people - were working on a corpus
of QuickTime (I think) movies in an Access database. Since I love database
design, I was fascinated, and went up to their data admin after the session,
to ask a question. She came along and included me in an invitation to dinner,
thinking that we knew each other. I let myself be swept up, and we went to
the Blue Nile. It was my first exposure to Ethiopian cuisine, as well.

I learned a tremendous amount about the issues SL linguists were grappling
 with, just from the conversation. Comparative data was just beginning to
be reported across sign typologies, and the big thing I took away w/ me was
that the major syntactic "unmarked" elements that were showing up in
virtually all SLs were the same ones I was learning in Japanese, which I was
taking at the time - counters, particles, Topic - Comment, and V last
structures were all big winner. Someday there'll be a big breakthrough in
understanding Language (big L) based on grappling with that fact, I predict.
or at least a very talked-about unified L theory!

I've sewed zippers into cardigan sweaters that I have knitted.  By

No, of course not. In hand sewing, you make minute adjustments as you go,
and of course the presser foot and feed dog aren't providing differential
pressure on the various layers of fabric.

Just realized I could have answered more to the point. I know a fair amount
about regional variations and the reasons for them, and have a strong
opinion about the "standardization" process that's occurring in some areas.
There's also a lot of variation for tolerance to "invented" handshapes and
sign variants borrowed from SEE and other MCEs - manually coded sign systems.

Did you have a question?

I thought "Bad" must be a missed mark.

Isn't British "Sad Fuck" roughly equivalent to a strongly derisive
"Lo-Sers"! a la Nelson on The Simpsons?

Myself, I'd guess that, if you needed a 2d American title,
"Premature Ejaculation: The Movie" or "Evening at Jackoffs"
would be closer to the mark of "le Club des frustre'es".

I'm really intrigued by "Ituicion Femenina", though.

Probably at some point.  What I was doing was starting with a
piece of A4, folding it in half, finding the midpoint of the
folded side, and then guestimating 60 degrees and folding the
right side in.  You know when you've hit it right because then
folding the left side over that will meet exactly.  If I didn't
quite get it, I'd adjust.

Have you got something better?

        When a horse canters or gallops, they lead with one front leg
-- it strikes out further forward than the other leg (the
hind end is involved, too).  This balances them when making
a turn.  If you are circling to the right, they should be on
the right lead or they tend to fall in a little.  It's
physics.  A flying lead change is when you change which side
the horse leads with in mid-stride instead of coming down
into a trot and re-cuing for a canter on the other lead.

I'm sure it wasn't. You have a lot more direct control when you're
doing it by hand.

I started pinning the zipper last night, and it feels like plastic
teeth attached to bias tape to me. (It's a YKK zipper.) I don't think
it's stretchy at all. (But the fabric of the coat is very
slippery--I'm much more concerned about that.)

Yeah, or maybe something like "sorry ass."

Except that the movie's about three 40-something, relationship-challenged
women.  "Club Frustration" might be okay.

"Andie MacDowell plays Kate an American Headmistress of a British private
school, who makes up 1/3 of the aforementioned [sad fucker's] 'club' with
pals Molly and Janine. 'Their existence was pathetic, and they got into
this really bad rhythm and habit of being sad and enjoying their sadness,'
says MacDowell of the movie's bitter trio. The threesome engages in a
weekly ceremony of misery, where the woman who shares the most desperate
tale of relationship woe is given a box of caramels as a consolation prize."

Kate gets lucky, though.

Clo is like Wonder Woman (Forrest Gump ?) this weekend.
She has solutions to hearing problems, knows how to fix
zippers, fold snowflakes, sign, has anecdotes about extreme
medicine, lived in Austin - do you have any stories of Lower
Manhattan from the sixties? That would tie up the weekend's
posts beautifully.

Oh, and "Sad Fuckers Club" was the original script's title, so "le club des
frustrées" is an attempt to capture that.  The original title does nicely
capture the sense of "loser" and sexual frustration together.

MacDowell:

Ok, I get this, I think.  This would be the way to go efficiently when you

Where are the headlines which make really clever use of
Michael Jackson's songs? I need something creative like
that to keep me interested!

Otherwise, this is what I am saddled with ... I just got
another issue of a "Writers" magazine, after cancelling
my subscription two years ago. On the cover I see "Are
Agents Necessary?"

Any guesses? I'll tell you. After a long-winded assessment,
it turns out they aren't necessary. But unless you really
know what you are doing, like the writer whose (ambivalent)
case the article began with, you are probably better off
with an agent.

What is the moral of this story? That I could tell what
the article contained, without reading a single word. It's
all syntax, everybody is writing in syntax.

There's a holiday TV commercial (once you see one, you see it a
million times) about a guy using his platinum credit card to hit
on women in cafes -- "I see you have the purple; me too" -- but
falling short on credit limit or expiration date or the like.
The tag of the ad shows him making one more effort: the woman
says "I like Pilates" and he says, "Yeah, I like to drink those
too."  :)

People who don't do a lot of sewing often don't realize the difference
a small amount of give in a fabric makes. Yes, it's essentially bias tape,
just not cotton. The relative importance of cutting on the bias to create
tape is that you can make a binding that's just that little bit more forgiving
to reach around the edges of, eg, skirt hems or necklines - circles that you
have to stretch to get around.

Similarly, attaching zipper to garment requires something that can flex
<enough> to work on a variety of fabrics. But that extra tiny bit of give
means you can accidentally stretch one side more than another, leaving the
zipper lopsided. And yes, slippery fabric is a pain to work with. So pin
carefully, go slow, and it'll be ok.

John and I got married at around 10:40 a.m. today in a very nice
private ceremony in a historic home that is a wedding chapel in Mesa. In
attendance were Master Carl, John's very nice friends Rod and Dawn, and two
of their grandchildren. We all went to Pointe South Mountain for an
excellent lunch on the sunny terrace amidst the bougainvillea and cacti.

Tomorrow John, Carl and I will board the Sunset Limited at Maricopa bound
for New Orleans. We'll be there until next weekend, then back to Mesa. The
three of us will fly back to Kentucky Jan. 2, and John will stay there for
another week.

Carl and I still will not move here until the end of May -- we thought since
we have several weeks off now that it would be more relaxing to get married
now, and worry about the moving later.

We are having a lovely day -- it is in the mid-70s; John and Carl are out in
the back yard playing tag. We'll relax and get ready for a nice, relaxing
ride to the Big Easy.

We thought we'd let this be a surprise (or maybe not?) to all of you.

Here are some wedding announcements appearing a bit earlier:

That was, of course, extremely rude of them - even if
it had a whit of truth in it, why would they hold her
accountable?  She must have her mother's ability to
grin and bear it - up to a point.  I'm sorry to hear
that this sort of thing took place, for her sake.

And a few infinitely stranger, I'd wager on that!

Okay. I am entirely basted now, so my next task is finding all the
sewing machine pieces and seeing if I can get it to work. (The last
time I used it was several years ago.) Then I try sewing with scraps, and
then I do the zipper.

Simple.  When these pieces come your way, read the
titles, headers, headlines, etc., and recycle the
periodical.  Or, recycle the words into your own
article and have your agent submit it.  Or, recycle
your agent.

I didn't realize I hadn't posted today.  Maybe I haven't.  It's been a
busy day.  The colleague who was in the car wreck shortly before
Thanksgiving died yesterday.  I've been involved in various
communications with various people about it, and then several people met
at my house to go up to the funeral home in Okolona together.  The
funeral is tomorrow, but I've got to be at another funeral at the same
time.  I've had conflicting activities many times in my life, but I
think this is the first ever for a funeral conflict.  (Actually, one is
a memorial service for somebody who died in Texas in November.  Her
ashes are now here.  I might have mentioned my having to figure out how
to get in touch with a cemetery several weeks ago for a friend in
England.  It's his mother's ashes.)

Phone her???!  She can't hear.  And I can't talk.  My cold has worsened and
closed up my throat.  Anyway, I see she has reported in.

Well, I'm far too new and naiver, NOT to be surprised.
 Surprise engagement, surprise wedding, surprise -
well, anyway.  I'm raising my cup of cocoa to both of
you.  May you both stay healthy and always enjoy each
other's company.  And PC or not, God bless you, every one!

Oddly enough, I've found that my best hearing since the ear rot came is
on the telephone.  I can barely hear it ring, but I can hear the voice
pretty well -- much better than ftf conversations.  Part of it may be
that my left ear is not as bad as my right ear.  My right ear is still
throbbing some and is still totally stuffed, whereas the left ear
gurgles occasionally now, meaning looser stuffing, and doesn't throb.  I
wonder if I could hear on the telephone with my right ear.  It would
feel too weird to try that, though.  I don't think my right ear would
know how to do a telephone even if in good health.

I've had far more telephone conversations today than usual.  None
initiated by me, I should add.  As I've mentioned before, answering the
phone is not nearly as daunting as making a call is.

No, I'm not an SL researcher. I merely have talked to signers from
different regions, and also to researchers. "What regions" is an interesting
question in itself -

 It appears to me that regions have some correlation to major
residential schools for the deaf (many closed now), which is where signers
 from local communities meet and work out common ways of referring to shared
referents - for instance, place names. Place names vary from region to
region, but the current standard is to privilege the names used in the
place's local region over those standard in the conversational locale,
 and over the area from which the conversants come as well.

Even so, certain places - like Gallaudet and NTID (Rochester NY) in the East,
and NM in the Southwest - have more influence because they are affiliated
with training centers which have published lexical works. So some of the
place names "everyone" knows may have come from Rochester, because
"everyone's" interpreters studied the Rochester manuals in the '80s.
Technical terminology for various fields, and even medical and sexual
terminology have the same influences.

Similarly, there's a heck of a lot of variation in grammar, and in the
amount of initialization (using a first letter fingerspelling as part of
the sign), and also in the use of "non-manual markers" - both facial
expressions and mouthings that may or may not approximate a spoken word
gloss of the sign; yet Gallaudet-standard or other teacher/interp prep
program standards may infiltrate a local sign dialect quite heavily.

Other major variants - 1) how much fingerspelling and for what purposes;
2) (mostly a historical footnote by now) which alphabet for fingerspelling.
The two major variants used to be a one-handed alphabet imported by the
French teacher Laurent LeClerc, and a 2-handed alphabet brought over from
Britain.  Most two-handed alphabeters around here are over 80 now - another
case of dialect extinction, I fear.

 I'm a lot less conversant with variations in syntax, mostly because the
two best-known variants (topic-comment a la Gallaudet and other east coast
research and SVO a la MCEs borrowing structure from spoken Ls) are
privileged by most people as a) best and b) most hated (which one is which
 varies according to local or political bias); many of the actual
elements of regional dialects are dismissed by most people as "pidgin" in
a pejorative sense, "not real grammar", "illiterate", etc.

Is any of this meandering helpful at all?

Well, it appears that I may have a new romantic interest in my life (long
story... someone that I've known slightly for a decade or so, and I answered
his personal ad without knowing that it was him, because the person he was
advertising for was exactly me, and it turns out he used to date Dossie's
roommate and we know *all* the same people and it's just coincidence that we
haven't hooked up already... so anyway...)

We're at my place, cuddling and talking and getting to know each other, and,
as he strokes my hair, he says, "OK, there's one thing I have to ask you."

Tensing slightly, I ask, "What?"

"What the hell is a 'wordsler'?"

Now how the hell do you answer a question like that?

Oh, I'm sorry.  Did I use the word "apologize"?  I
didn't mean to, as I have no more right to ask for an
apology from all Indians than anyone else has the
right to speak for all Indians.  Nor do I have a right
to apologize for all ugly Americans who visit Europe.
Can we call it a draw, and agree that rudeness is
unacceptable in anyone?

Well, how about just maybe 2%?  That would help!  I think Tushar should
apologize for at least 2 % of all Indians.  And Rashmi, well maybe we can
dock her for 1%.  (Tushar should apologize more, imho but ymmv.)

That leaves kind of like 97% of Indians who haven't apologized.  I can
live with that.

There's a cartoon, I think in the latest New Yorker, showing a man and
woman at the marriage altar, and the man is saying to the woman "You'll
do."

I am still asking myself why my husband thought this was so funny, and so
funny that HE SHOWED IT TO ME.

I can see that my admiring non-manual markers are just not

Is there a place where one can get an MFA for Creative Math?
And if not, why not?

Well, the math is hardly astonishing in any sense; the manners, well, am I
supposed to read astonishingly -good- manners?  And "that leaves kind of
like" is colloquial, to say the least - -  so "astonishing,"  well, what
can it mean, I don't know, but I doubt it means something good.

I think you're fucking with me, clo, I honestly do.  but "See, this is
where I get in trouble all the time" sounds so gen-u-wine, I don't know
what to think.

It's a pretty damn astonishing use of math is what it is, I'm amazed in
a really good way that you thought of apportioning out the apology, it's
such a brilliant thing to do. Imagine if Rush, for example, had spread
out the apology among the medical staff who abetted his addiction - why,
he'd probl'y be even more respected than ever.

I think MJ and SH should hire you, I really do.

As for the manners, they belong to various other participants so I can't
imagine why you should be heated over them. But if I were astonished over
Sara's restraint, would that be a bad thing?

 As for using the quotative "like", it's one of my goals in life to come
to grips with the question "how many parts of speech <am> like, anyhoo?".
So I am gleeful and appreciative of the unexpected application.

Unless I really am fucking with you...

I'm sorry that you're still sick--and especially that you've gotten

I'm not looking forward to it.

I know. It has been. I will never forget driving back from Chicago and
not being able to see the lane striping.

My perfect Christmas is snow on the night of the 23rd that stops the

after the 28th, TYVM.

Congratulations!  You know, years ago when people married
on December 21 the joke was that they chose that date
because it was the longest night of the year.

Enjoy your trip . . enjoy your life.  So glad to hear people
being happy.

And on Wednesday morning I, too, will head for colder climes for the first time
in about 15 or 20 years. Yahoo! Weather says I'm looking at daily highs
ranging from 29 to 43 and lows ranging from 17 to 30. I guess I ought to go
out and buy some clothes tomorrow. I don't think my aloha shirts are going to

Easily.

Wordsler (n.).  1) one who engages in phatic drivel at the drop of a hat;
2) one who maintains a generally diegetic view of the world; 3) a
participant in an online <service> where the strong survive and the weak
are killed and eaten with considerable regularity; 4) one whose mastery of
arcane and useless knowledge rivals that of any Trivial Pursuit
grandmaster; 5) a resident of an endless bog of self-reference.

Laszlo is crazy about peanut butter.

Oh, and my next-door neighbors are helping me be a bobo. Or maybe it's them who are the bobos. They came home from shopping yesterday with a gift for Laszlo. Dog biscuit mix and a bone shaped biscuit cutter from Restoration Hardware.  (and I don't think they get coupons)

She will continue to if you continue to give her food from the table. We never have with Laszlo and never will. I sneak him things while I'm cooking though that's different. And so far I haven't found anything he won't eat.

That's 10th Ave between 23rd and 24th Streets. West side of the street.

Sat, Dec 27 at 6:30 PM.

So far we've got Janet, Ben, Miles, Natalie, Rashmi, and me in. Everyone else was wishy washy if I'm reading correctly. Terry? Clo? I'd like to make a reservation today.

Sounds familiar.  Remember the obnoxious Ebonics jokes back during the
Oakland flap (and long before and after, just not with that name)?

I can't answer for Bethany (nor can she answer for herself right now, I
guess -- wasn't she going nomail last night to leave for the monk's cave
today?), but I will say that I found what you wrote interesting stuff.

And I've been meaning to tell you that I really am going to send you all
those audiotapes of Texas and Mississippi speakers one of these days.  I
have never been a procrastinator at all, but dealing with the stuff in
this house from my office, my mother's house, etc. etc. has been too
overwhelming for me to get to.  I think I'm on the verge of it, though
-- starting right after the holidays.  I'm almost positive I'm not going
to be teaching -- that I'm finally going to be really retired.  YaY!

ROFL!  I have yet to find an answer that non-wordslers really
understand.  Even after my most concentrated attempts, they look blank

recipe for the glue that has held the jewels in
the walls all these years.  She was told she
could have it when they get the recipe for coke.

No, she'll fuss whether I give her food or not. There are some things
that Burl feels a sense of entitlement about. She even knows that food
comes out of the fridge, so she sticks her nose in there when I open
it. This is absurd, of course, because her nose it at the height of the
vegetable drawers, but it doesn't stop her from being interested.

The family yesterday seemed in pretty good spirits.  I think they're
feeling somewhat relieved after over a month of agony.  And I think they
had a good bit of time to gradually make themselves accept the
inevitable.  After a bit of small hope near the beginning, I think the
doctors were not encouraging them at all.

The funeral home yesterday was mobbed, and I'm sure they are going to
have continued support from friends.  The mother still lives in Okolona,
the small town we went to yesterday between here and Tupelo.  That's
where Linda, my colleague, grew up and where she will be buried today.
Her husband works near Tupelo with lots of friends there.  And they've
lived in Starkville for many years, where they also have lots of
friends.  I know there will be tons of people at the funeral today, even
though many, many English-dept people are out of town for the holidays.
  Linda was a much-appreciated colleague.  She was one of only two
instructors we had left (people with just an M.A. who teach freshman and
sophomore courses) and was great about taking on all kinds of duties
nobody else wanted to do, like being director of undergraduate studies
(meaning being chief advisor of English majors, being in charge of the
departmental booth at events for visiting hs students, etc. etc. etc.).
  I remember when she first showed up to get her M.A. here after being
out of school for a long time.  Hers was one of the first thesis
committees I was ever on -- she wrote it on Milton.

Anyway, yes it is very sad, but it is good that she's not going to lie
there in a coma forever or regain consciousness to lead the life of a
vegetable.  How horrible it must be for her mother, though.  I thought
about that the whole time we were there yesterday -- about the horror of
a parent's attending her child's funeral.

My old hs friends still laugh about our friend Katherine's statement
(Bonnie has met Katherine) when we were all there with her right after
her wedding when she was changing clothes for the getaway -- I think the
proper word was "going away."  She at some point nodded and said
something like, "I think he'll do."  And he has.  They are still happily
married almost forty years later.

I think half of Starkville has the epizudics.  This is a weird winter.

I'm not looking forward to the fact that I should probably wear a hat to
protect head and ears in NYC.  That bothers me because it means I will
have flat hair, which will put me in a bad mood.  I hate flat hair.
It's been doing a pretty good job lately of poking up on top, which
makes me happy, but if I put a cap on for even a few seconds, it goes
totally flat.

The one today for the ashes won't be as sad as some funerals are since
this person was in her late eighties and had supposedly not known who
she was or where she was for the past couple of years.  It will be good
to see my old friends also, though I'm sure that they will be tied up
with family and not have much visiting time.  They lived here for many
years, then retired for her to be a dean at Lamar University and for him
to be some kind of mid-level administrator there.  She then moved to be
dean or associate provost or something at whatever is in South Bend,
Indiana, while he moved to U of North Texas.  (Their being in different
places is not unusual.  They often rotated between here and Australia,
one of them teaching here, the other in Australia.)  Now at least he and
I think both of them have permanent jobs at a university in England --
I've forgotten which one.  Their five children are grown and spread
around the world, some in this country, some elsewhere.  It's their
youngest daughter whom I think I quoted here once before as having said
that if Bush won the election she was going to leave the country.  He
did, and she moved to China.  Her parents and I both found that somehow
a funny choice.  I could go on about this family because they're very
interesting people.  Lots of enemies here, though I always liked them.
Their oldest son is the person I might have mentioned one time who with
his wife when they got married came up with a solution of the whose name
to take -- they invented a new name that was a combination of their two
last names.  He was Shillingsburg, she was Milner, so they became
Shillner -- or maybe it's Shilner.  Problem is that they're now
divorced.  I asked his father when he was solving the mystery of my
bathroom light while through town a couple of years ago whether Robert
was keeping the name Shillner now that they were divorced, and he said
he wasn't sure yet.  He (the father) was never enthusiastic about that
name change and was clearly hoping that Robert would go back to his old
name.

Eek!  I forgot to celebrate the solstice!  It was a night earlier this
year, right?  (Yes, I am stupid about these matters, but I have it stuck
in my head that the 22nd is the right night to celebrate some years but
that it was the 21st this year.)  In any case, my spirits are lifted by
the thought that THE SUN IS RETURNING!!

Japan?  I missed a great party in Tokyo on the 19th.  But be aware -- I
heard yesterday that some of the Starkville epizudics flew to Tokyo last

I would assume so.  Also I should have said "the
tour guides said that <blah blah blah>"

This sounds to me like a canned story for tourists,
with different names being inserted from time to
time.  Anyway, I don't know that Clintons were
recently in India.

I tend to feed her when I'm cooking. That distracts her from my food,
but it sets up another precedent, that I will feed her when I'm
eating. Sometimes I throw her out of the house when I'm cooking,
because it's less trouble. She's a happy cat, so she doesn't mind.

Cats are clearly superior beings.

The first time Burl went in the refrigerator, I was surprised. But now
we are regularly to be found both staring inside as if all the secrets
of the universe were contained within.

Does she get on the counters and the table? That's yucky.

I don't think feeding snacks while you are cooking equates to feeding
from the table. I think there's a clear distinction which animals can
understand. Dogs anyway. I actually never had a begging cat.

> Cats are clearly superior beings.

Hey, that's not nice. Remember, anyway, I'm both a cat and a dog person.
I don't think either is clearly superior.

No. You'll at least need a coat and gloves.

No--she's not a jumper. I would not tolerate that behavior.

I don't feed Burl from the table.

When I'm cooking, she meows to let me know that she's there, and
available to eat whatever I'm making. (She's very quiet, so this often
startles me.) She then stands very close to my feet so I won't miss
her. (She doesn't even do the foot twining thing, which I find Very
Annoying. She doesn't rub at all, just comes close.) If I come too
close to stepping on her, she goes in the exercise room and just
watches for me to drop something. If it's something like a bit of raw
onion, she's on it in a flash, and then spurns it in disdain. (I think
some of this is The Thrill Of The Hunt for her--she really is an
outdoor cat.)

If she wants what I'm eating while I'm eating, she gives me The Stare.

I guess, now that I write this, her behavior is not that egregious. If
I eat something I think she'll like, I let her eat the crumbs off my
plate when she's done. (That's what she did with the lasagna.) That's
the majority of our food interactions. If it's something I think will
go bad but I can't stand to eat any more of it, there may actually be
some food left, but usually it's tiny bits.

>> Cats are clearly superior beings.

> Hey, that's not nice. Remember, anyway, I'm both a cat and a dog person.
> I don't think either is clearly superior.

I was just trolling you. They are clearly very different. I think I
could be either, given the right animal. Burl is clearly a good fit
for me, as Laszlo is for you.

Aha! so the M is for married!
 
Congratulations!  An auspicious beginning.  May your life together be filled with more bougainvillea than cactus.

>>> amy88williams@HOTMAIL.COM 12/21/03 06:30PM >>>
John and I got married at around 10:40 a.m. today in a very nice
private ceremony in a historic home that is a wedding chapel in Mesa. In
attendance were Master Carl, John's very nice friends Rod and Dawn, and two
of their grandchildren. We all went to Pointe South Mountain for an
excellent lunch on the sunny terrace amidst the bougainvillea and cacti.

Tomorrow John, Carl and I will board the Sunset Limited at Maricopa bound
for New Orleans. We'll be there until next weekend, then back to Mesa. The
three of us will fly back to Kentucky Jan. 2, and John will stay there for
another week.

Carl and I still will not move here until the end of May -- we thought since
we have several weeks off now that it would be more relaxing to get married
now, and worry about the moving later.

We are having a lovely day -- it is in the mid-70s; John and Carl are out in
the back yard playing tag. We'll relax and get ready for a nice, relaxing
ride to the Big Easy.

We thought we'd let this be a surprise (or maybe not?) to all of you.

Here are some wedding announcements appearing a bit earlier:

It's just called "Crush"  However, imdb says:
Also Known As:
Certain Age, A (2000) (UK: working title) 
Drei Freundinnen und ein Liebhaber (2002) (Germany: video title) 
Heiraten für Fortgeschrittene (2002) (Germany) 
Sad Fuckers Club (2001) (UK: working title)

6.  Saw a movie listing brought back from Paris recently.  It had a blurb
on a movie called in French "Crush:  Les __________  Frustrees" and
supposedly titled in English "Bad Fucker."  I have googled and don't know
what the hell?  It had Andie MacDowell in it.

It is truly sad, and please accept my promise that
I'll be thinking of you.  This might have gone on for
months, however, and at least it didn't turn into the
horrendous mess they have with the case in FL.  One of
the tragedies of growing older (as I am) is watching
your friends and family come to the ends of their lives.

I think in some contexts it would be very sweet, though it also rings
- now- of Babe's master - "Tha'll do, pig". It's a lot less funny as a
substitution for "I do".

I don't feed from the table. either, but I do when I
am cooking.  This leads to strange discoveries.  One
dog adored raw potato.  Another would chose a slice of
white bread over steak fat or bones.  Jaysie, the
current mistress of the house, could probably chew and
swallow nails, but has a tough time with Ritz crackers.

YaY for kinesthetic memory! I managed to get my sewing machine up and
running and did the first of 4 rows of stitching. I'm so glad my
fingers remembered what to do, because my brain sure didn't!

Something in the word "sway" suggests horizontal to me.  I think I would
use the word "move" or maybe "jump" for vertical movement.  I do know,
however, that vertical is when you spring into earthquake action -- that
it's very serious business.  As long as the motion is horizontal, you're
ok.

But the snipping of extra threads and removal of the basting. YaY!
There are a couple of places on the inside where the first row of
threads didn't catch the material, but I can easily tack those down by
hand.

I hope this coat lasts for the rest of my life. (It should--I only
wear it 10 days/year.)

Depends on what you mean by 'ok'. Several people are not 'ok' after
today's earthquake, they are dead.

A clock tower (!) fell on 3 people in Paso Robles. I was just talking
to Paul about Paso Robles, but the name escaped me. It's where I was
stranded when my clutch cable broke. And Heather sent me flowers. And
I couldn't find anyone's phone numbers, so I phoned Karsten.

What I remember most is that I pulled out of a parking spot, and when
I shifted into first, there was a sproing, and my car wouldn't move.
And five minutes later a van pulled out with five strapping young men
who lifted my car out of the way.

I wish it always worked like that.

And you know that their dwelling was swaying horizontally?  How do you
know that?

Because the movement was described as 'a gentle rolling motion'. You
don't get that from a vertical quake. See

Why do you believe that the dead person's experience of the earthquake
was so different from anyone else's?

I take your point.  Although it is said we've had
quakes in AL, I have never actually been aware of
them.  And I don't want to be aware of them.

Well, I know you can't afford the time of the money
for a get-away.  But next off day after the hols., why
don't you plan one day in which you go anywhere you
want by bus, train, whatever.  Go to a museum, eat out
at a nice place (doesn't have to be expensive), go to
an interesting part of the city, go to the zoo.  Let
your mom and the pets take care of one another.  And
buy yourself something you wanted that you didn't get
at Christmas (something inexpensive).  It helps me to
get out, I sometimes feel I am living alone, anyhow.

Well, my experience is that while the building is not necessarily
swaying (more like thumping up and down), one's perception may be that
swaying is involved. I think it's an inner ear thing.

I hate it when the inanimate objects conspire against me! I had my
sewing scissors when I ripped my coat, and now I can't find them.

Oh.

I just realized I probably can't take them with me anyway. Can I take
my measuring tape with me? Or will they be afraid that I will strangle
the pilot with it?

Karen,
leaving my nailfile at home

        Yahoo admits to two deaths now.  Somebody must have survived
your clock tower.

And the url you gave said that it was felt as a rolling motion in LA.
Was the dead person in LA?

The link I sent before had 3 deaths. Ah, Wired News says "First
reports said three people were killed but officials said the two women
were the only fatalities and that an additional 46 people were
injured, some with broken bones and lacerations."

I wouldn't consider broken bones 'ok' either, but Natalie's mileage
may vary.

I'm going to scream the next time some newscaster mispronounces Paso
Robles.

Uh-huh. They were in a building with other people who didn't die,
though, and who experienced it the same way according to what I saw on
TV.

In Paso Robles, where James Dean died, remember?

I put up the tree this morning (a $15 balsam pine from the
hardware store around the corner) and let Ana decorate it.
This is the first time she's put all the ornaments on
herself.  It's also the first time we've left ornaments off
because we have too many.  The first year we were married, I
bought boxes of candy canes to decorate the tree because we
had maybe 4 or 5 ornaments.  Many of our ornaments are from
the exchange students, many are the crappy kind made by Ana
(no, really -- her Kindergarten teacher had a genius for
ugly craft projects -- picture a Hallmark card angel glued
inside a cut-open Table Talk Pie tin) -- those all went on.
  And the construction-paper angel Ana made at some point
always goes on top surrounded by the delicate lace angels
tatted by Karo's grandmother.

Traditionalists will also be happy to know that I got my
Christmas cards done today, too.  I wrote a Christmas letter
for the first time; I just don't keep in touch with anybody
anymore.

OB Words-l Moment:  The newspaper reports a study on
Alzeimer's conducted at Rush University in Chicago.

I'm going to go read Middlesex.  Ana is having a friend
sleep over, so I have a long night of whispering and
giggling ahead.

I felt one here in upstate NY, mm - maybe 1 year ago or so? We've only
lived here a couple of years, so it can't be long - of course it was
 only a tiny one, but I distinctly saw the corner of the room dip and
roll; it was very disorienting.

Go to the airline website - there'll be a list. There are even
"airline safe" thread nippers now. You can get them at craft

My mom's sister aged 84 had angioplasty and a stint last week,
but was hospitalized today in Florence SC with shortness of
breath and chest pains. It appears that I may be driving to
SC w/ my parents (Mom doesn't drive and Dad won't fly, and at
79 and 50 weeks is not up to driving 20 hrs alone), possibly
tomorrow.

This is the beloved librarian aunt who fed me fascinating
reading matter, and also the keeper of the homeplace. If she
pulls through, she won't be able to live alone any more -
that's another issue, though. First I have to get Mom down
there to be with her.

All this sounds like so much fun!!  Our tree is up and
decorated, interior of house decorated, freezer full
of baked goods, presents bought and mostly wrapped -
but I did it by myself, as Chris is not really able to
do anything except sleep (meds).  But I am determined
NOT to let things seem abnormal.  Oh well, next year
will soon be here.

Is it just me, or does it seem to others that terrible
things seem to clump together around holidays?  Our
across-the-street died on Sat.  Today, I was in the
pharmacy, one of the pharmacists was told to pick up a
phone line - she screamed "What?!!!".  Somone had
called her to say that her house was on fire. My
mother called this PM to thank me for a gift, and she
sounded TERRIBLE.  I know how Evelyn feels:-]

I'm a little out of it--and Burl is acting weird. I'm afraid she's
going to pee on something important. Anyway, what I wanted them for
was to cut the threads on my coat, so I can pack it.

Ligniere just showed up, too. I repeat, Arrrgh.

the day she told the list there was another spot on
the xrays.

I just got an email from a lady I don't know but who runs
a genealogy newsletter for one of the family names I
sometimes look into.  She said "The police were just here . .
to tell me my son was killed in a motorcycle accident.  He
was just finishing his medical residency.  I don't know what
to do.  I think I will go to bed."

             So sad, and especially so at Xmas time.

That is shock. I sure hope somebody's with her. I can't imagine

Burl weird?  What's she doing?  Who is Ligniere?

For us, the worst year was 1995.  Chris lost his
daughter and his father within 10 days of each other.
His beloved aunt died on New Years' Eve.  And I'm
leaving out a bunch of other awful stuff.  I sure hope
along with you.  Be careful on the way to SC.
Remember, it's a jungle out there.

How awful!  Sounds like she's in shock.  The worst is

Just very restless, wandering around the house looking at everything
suspiciously. I did discover earlier today that she peed on my travel
purse, but luckily that is washable (and machine dryable).

It's a stressful time because people make it that way. Terrible things
happen year round.

Our neighbor's outdoor lights on his big pine tree started a fire.  Lost
his garage as well as smoke damage, hole in roof, water damage.

I can't get out of my mind the image of two children burning in a car that
a guy purposely set and the mother trying to rescue. I have to drive by
this spot every day and it has really zapped my good feelings about the
season this year.

Hi Doris,

I don't know anybody personally with an msn account.  However, there are
a couple of messages in my inbox from strangers whose address is@msn.com.

I am reminded of a soupy Hallmark movie I watched not long ago (I love
soupy Hallmark movies) about a family who got word of their son's death
while they were decorating the xmas tree on xmas eve.  They didn't
celebrate xmas at all for the next five years, but the movie was mainly
about the happy ending of their going back to having xmas, with the help
of their dead son, whose ghost came to help, and about how their
daughter had thought all those years that they didn't celebrate xmas
because they loved her brother better than they loved her.

Re decorating trees so late -- how long do those of you who don't get
trees until right before xmas leave them up?  We've talked about this
before, I think.  I know we've talked about the belief some of us grew
up with that leaving a xmas tree up after midnight on Dec. 31 was bad
luck, but that's not what I'm talking about now.  I'm thinking about how
I wouldn't want to go to all the trouble of decorating for such a short
period of time.  In my childhood we always got the xmas tree the first
weekend in December.  That way it can be enjoyed for several weeks.  We
always took it down a day or two after xmas.

Animals know when they're about to be left.  And they don't like it.

Uh oh.  The list is going to dry up.  I'll also be gone until the 29th.
  (But I won't be going nomail until tomorrow night.)  I'm not going to
bother to try to check e-mail from NYC because dealing with the spam is
so much trouble.  I've got to explore spam-filters sometime soon.  It's
become overwhelming.

I hope I will be home the night of the 29th, although at this time of
year things like that are sometimes iffy.  The owner of Furrbabies has
assured me that she will not kick Spencer out into the cold to fend for
himself if something happens to delay my picking him up the afternoon of
the 29th.  I do hate having to fly from Tupelo.  That makes it hard to
predict exactly when I will make it to Furrbabies even if the plane is
on time, and it's slightly out of the way (though not nearly so far out
of the way as it would be if I had to come home and then pick him up the
next day, which was the original plan when I thought I was going to be
on a night flight -- thank goodness for Laguardia -- that Newark
schedule was horrible both in the going and the returning).

Another soupy movie (not Hallmark, iirc) that I liked recently was about
a widow and her bunch of children who fixed up an old house that burned
down when one of the children set fire to the outhouse.  I liked that movie.

Is there something I missed? Why is your husband on so many meds?

Insert standard nosiness disclaimer here.

FWIW, I haven't done any Christmas decorating whatsoever. I've listened to
some Christmas music, managed to send out cards, and done my shopping. Oh,
and I made the traditional lebkuchen, too, and shipped off portions to
sisters and father out West. I even did my mom's shopping for the local
kids - Christmas overwhelms her in the best of years, and with Granny's
death just two weeks ago, I knew she definitely wouldn't be up to shopping -
but even so, I'm not feeling too holiday-ish. It's also hard on me this year
because the traditions I've been a part of all my life are no longer viable,
so I'm having to create new ones.

        I really, really like it so far.  I love the

As various ones are reporting on their progress with Xmas,
I must report that my Xmas is over.  Done.  Past History.
We consumed mass quantities of dangerous food, drank
modest quantities of dangerous drink, exchanged presents,
dangled babies, played games with the growing kids around
the kitchen table, telephoned the ones who couldn't be here
to see if they had received our packages, stayed up late,
tried out the new cameras, tried on the new clothes, put
together the puttogetherables, and finally saw everyone off
and thanked God that once more we had lived through the 
whole thing.

I am working on New Year's resolutions and planning my
annual January exodus to Paradise.

                      - D. M.

= Do people on msn have the address
= msn.com or msn.net?
=
=                         - D. M.


This is a tricky question.  To be "on MSN", as in, "Are you on
MSN?" is short in my world for, "Do you use MSN Messenger to chat
online with?".  It's possible to use any email address to sign up
to this service, but most people use a Microsoft based one.

MSN has something they call the MSN .Net passport.

If you look at Google groups, you will find people with both
msn.net and msn.com email addresses.

The there's the whole Hotmail thing.  When you have a hotmail.com
free email address, when you log in to it, you do so via MSN.  So
someone might mean @hotmail.com.

So when someone asks me, "Are you on MSN?" the answer is, "Yes,
and I'll send you an email with my address in it." (this is
because everyone I chat with, I already have their email address)

I took these pictures a week or so ago to show y'all my xmas decorations
but didn't get around to squirting them from the camera until a few
minutes ago:

There's also a wreath on the front door.  I didn't take its picture.

My family always put up the tree on my brother's birthday (Christmas Eve)

Day (Jan 6), which we also celebrated because my Dad's old army buddy came
to dinner then, and brought presents.

Yes, Lynn's husband has been sick since she came on the list. But she

That was a free computer in a tourist office near Times Square.  I'm
trying to remember now whether that office is still there.  I have it
stuck in my head that the last time I was in NYC I found that it had
moved.  I remember walking around in cold rain looking for it and
reading on the side of a building about the fire at St. John's, which I
had visited just the day before.

Thank you.  I like those little elves.  I found them at a crafts fair
somewhere like Huntsville a few years ago, I think.  I remember that
they required some minor surgery of some kind but don't remember what
exactly -- nothing major since it was something I was able to accomplish.

My mantel looks better when I put holly on it, which I didn't do this
year.  I'm happy to report, however, that holly from my yard adorned
Meals-on-Wheels plates yesterday(?).  A nice old man called me last
night to find out info on the memorial service he had missed yesterday.
  Somebody had told him I'd gone.  He thanked me first for the holly I
gave him and told me he had used it all over his house and then put
pieces of it on his Meals-on-Wheels deliveries.  It was after the ARF
banquet when we were dismantling things like Santa Claus's arch, and I
said I wished somebody would take the holly and make use of it -- that I
was not going to take it home -- that I had tons more growing.  So this
nice old man and his daughter, who had driven him to the banquet, took it.

Our tree's been up and decorated since last Sunday, but sparsely so, and
nothing breakable because of the little red monster. So far so good...it's still standing anyway...

Well, it takes all kinds.  Some people love other

Paul Fussell was on NPR's talk show, The Connection, today, talking about
his recent book, reviewed below.  He said that his intent was to correct the
sentimental mythologizing of Stephen Ambrose and Tom Brokaw.  My guess is
this wouldn't be a good stocking stuffer for the WWII veterans in the
family......

>ill-fated G.I.'s. Of the millions of American servicemen sent to Europe,
>only 14
>percent were infantrymen, but they suffered 70 percent of the casualties.
>
>   For the majority who had never before left the United States, their

>experience was culture shock. During months of training in Britain, they
>found
>that they were resented as "overpaid, oversexed and over here" -- to which
>they
>cruelly retorted that British troops were "underpaid, undersexed and under
>Eisenhower." Many Britons were in turn disturbed by the United States
>Army's
>racial segregation and thought black G.I.'s better mannered than the white
>soldiers. As one local wit put it, "I don't mind the Yanks but I can't say

>care for those white chaps they've brought with them."
>
>   Still, when Gen. Dwight D. Eisenhower, the supreme allied commander,
>sent
>them off on the "Great Crusade," these latter-day crusaders were
>optimistic,
>believing that the war would soon be won. From the moment of the Normandy
>landings, things proved far messier. Barely out of high school, most G.I.'s

>little about France beyond wine and women, and relations with the liberated
>soon
>deteriorated. "This goddamn Europe," Fussell quotes one G.I. as saying. "A

>
>   As this short, riveting book turns to the war itself, it allows for
>heroism,
>but dwells more on what went wrong. As early as July 25, 1944, for
>instance,
>with Allied troops trapped in Normandy, American bombers killed 111 G.I.'s

>wounded almost 500 more. Then some 40,000 of 100,000 Germans escaped the

>position. 'There were barely any orders. There wasn't time.' The diamond
>haltingly moved forward, the boys 'half blind with fear.' " German machine

>   Even more disastrous was the Battle of the Hurtgen Forest in November
>1944,
>where 120,000 Americans fought and 33,000 were killed or wounded or went

>Shattered morale brought "unmanly" behavior, Fussell writes: "Unordered

>Army Specialized Training Program, studying engineering and the like. "In

Yay! Which songs? Maybe some I don't have!

Right now I'm listening to a CD of new easy-listening music by Perry La

of Dreams' new double album, "Flapjacks From The Sky".

I don't have the first one, but I think I have the latter three. Does she go
into overdubbed falsetto on the last one?

When we were very young, we believed that Santa
brought the decorated Christmas tree as well as the
gifts on Christmas Eve.  The tree stayed up until New
Year's Day.  I have finally caved in to Southern
custom, and decoration begins about 2 weeks before
Christmas.  But the tree still comes down on New
Year's Day.

Back in Feb, he was diagnosed as having inoperable
cancer of the neck tissue.  He's been undergoing
palliative chemo ever since, and the latest treatment
has proven the most effective, but they decided to
suspend it for the month of December, and he almost
immediately went down hill.  They have now reinstated
treatment.  He has to take so many meds, that at
times, he doesn't know where he is or what he has
said.  As far as my talking to him, he has never paid
much attention, so that's not new:-]

This was by far the best way to celebrate.  When you

I think it's great you keep your life going
with some normalcy despite the difficult circumstances.  I'm glad you

Bad luck!

My house is now undecorated, btw, except for the wreath on the door.
(It's ok to leave a wreath up through New Year's -- just not a tree.)
When the rain stopped this afternoon, I gathered the stuff up and put it
back in the storage building -- after washing the kitchen towel.

Unrelated to that, I just watched Larry King re the Kennedy assasination
and started wondering again why it was stuck in my head that Jack Ruby
was at Parkland Hospital when my RRB was interning there.  So I just
googled and found out why.  Ruby died there of cancer -- went to
Parkland to die after having been in jail for several years.

So I am - most of the time :-]  This computer opened a
whole new world to me, I think I would have been lost
without it.  And I am always learning something from
Wordslers, and learning is most important to me.
Thanks to all of you.

Fitting, eh what?  I knew he died of cancer, but
couldn't remember if he was in prison at the time.
Come to think of it, I don't even remember a trial.

Yes, but they "meow" with various accents.

This sounds like a horrible life for both of you.  Are there at least times
when he is comfortable and aware?  Times that make all the suffering worth

Have any of you ever used an inhaler?  There seems to be something I'm not
getting about this.  I try to follow the directions but all I seem to do is
spray a little mist onto the top of my mouth or onto my tongue.  Isn't it
supposed to get to my throat?  I really don't see how this can do much good.

This question plus Betty's stipulation regarding a
definition of a Wordsler will take some time and
thought. I'm now if to an event that will last about 4
hours.  Fortunately, I do not have anything else to
think about at this event, so maybe I'll get to some
answers this afternoon.

I have found a recipe for hazelnut pie crust, and I'm,
going to TRY the butterscotch pie you loved so much.
Chris adores butterscotch.  If he can eat peach
cobbler a la mode, he can eat butterscotch pie.

Bad timing!  Karen is absent.  And has clo left for SC?  They would have
answers for you.

I take it that your cold is still doing bad things.  So are my ears, I
might add.  I am so very, very tired of being <puny>.  I want my old
life back.  This is not a holiday season that I will remember with
pleasure.  I'm ready for New Year's to get here.  I want to eat

Oh, dear! Thank you for this!

Meanwhile I read your message about your husband's disease, and this
reminded me about my classmate whom I met once again after 26 years this
October when we had a school reunion. She had nursed her husband, with his
lower body paralysed, for several years and lost him then. He was able to
talk but so depressed at last that he actually didn't. A sad story, and a
tough woman, and full of love towards her late husband.

I am sorry for your both's difficult times and wish the best to you.

In the googling last night to find out what became of him, I saw
something about how they had just decided to have a second trial for him
-- right before discovering his illness.  And there were accusations
that people had poisoned him -- had "put the cancer into him."  I didn't
pay much attention to it last night since I was mainly trying to
remember what had happened to him and why I had it stuck in my head that
he had been in Parkland when my RRB was there.  That I found.  One of
the first hits when I googled for '"jack ruby" died' said that he "died
in prison."  But several right after that mentioned that he had died in
Parkland.  The "died in prison" wording was misleading, though true in a
sort of way since he was in fact a "prisoner" when he died in Parkland.

I remember reading the Garrison book back whenever it came out -- the
book about oddities and possible conspiracies -- and finding it
fascinating.  One reason I watched the LK thing last night was that some
of my memories of the event were fading -- not the where I was, who told
me, etc., but some of the "official" details.

I was in a tv-watching mood last night and was hoping for another soupy
Hallmark xmas movie -- or better yet "Miracle on 32nd St," to get me in
a NYC mood.  But I couldn't find anything like that.  So I watched the
biography of Jimmy Stewart and then LKLive.  I meant to say last night
that "It's a Wonderful Life" wasn't quite the bomb that some of you were
suggesting recently.  It was nominated for three academy awards, and
various <important people> (one of them looked like Carol Burnette, but
I thought she had died -- maybe this was taped earlier -- or maybe she
isn't dead -- or maybe it was somebody else) were praising it.  This
CB-looking person said that she thinks the bar scene when he is trying
to pray is one of the greatest, most difficult dramatic scenes in movie
history.  The director's son said that the movie did not turn out to be
a box-office smash but that the "myth" that it was a total flop is an
exaggeration.

I was just on the verge of asking what had become of you!  I'm glad
you're still with us, even though full-time would be better.  I was
thinking about you yesterday(?) when listening to something by an
Estonian composer in my car.

There was another WLM in my car yesterday or day before when The Very
Reverend Somebody (is Very Reverend a step up from being just Reverend?)
of the downtown Episcopal Church (I think it's called a cathedral) in
Jackson was talking on the radio about advent, the twelve days of xmas,
etc.  That's the church I would've grown up in if my parents had
followed their thought of joining it when they first got married.  But
I've told that story before -- about how I was an almost Episcopalian.
Toward the end of that segment -- or rather when I was at my destination
and turned off the car -- he was talking about some kind of big bonfire
they have in front of the church to burn xmas decorations.  I think that
must be on Epiphany.  Sounded as if they must block off Capitol Street,
or at least that block, for the event.  I should go sometime.  I used to
go to that church for xmas-eve communion occasionally when a teenager
and young adult.

Meanwhile, PRM (Public Radio of Mississippi) has changed its name to
Mississippi Broadcasting Somethingorother.  I don't like it.  And I
don't know why they changed.  I like PRM.

Because Karen isn't here to say it, I must tell you that I worry that you
will break your eardrums by flying with congested ears.  I hope that
doesn't happen.  In your shoes, I would cancel my NYC trip.

Yes, I'm still ill.  I went to the doctor yesterday morning for all the
good that did me. (Clyde says I'm a bad patient and I agree.)  I don't have
strep throat.  They did a culture.  I don't have a sinus infection.  I
don't have an ear infection.  I don't have pneumonia because my lungs are
clear.  I'm not running a fever.  The only symptom that sounds like the flu
is that I had the chills.  But even if I do have the flu, it can't be
treated.  Flu can only be treated in the first 48 hours after onset.  My
throat is indeed red and icky.  So I was prescribed an inhaler to use four
times a day until the cough stops.  And I was prescribed strong
decongestants to be taken twice a day.  Other than that I must wait for my
body to fight this off.

As I said, I find it hard to believe that this inhaler is getting anywhere
near my throat.  And I gave up on the prescription decongestant when I
discovered it wasn't nearly as effective as the over-the-counter thing that
I was taking before I went to the doctor.  Illness sucks.  I want to go
back to being lucky.

>Kristin, come back soon!

As I see, the window for answering from the archives is of limited size.

Just wanted to add:
As to my coming back - oh, I'd like to manage with some tasks - not actual
promises to other persons, but half-promises, as there are some expectations
in the air, things I planned to do, but haven't.

At the moment I'm about to set back home quite quickly - I just dropped in
the office, and a reason why I stayed a bit longer was that I was listening
to Britten's A Ceremony of Carols over the computer, and although I have the
original CD-copy at home, I didn't want to leave before it was over.

All the best to everybody again, and have a nice Christmas Eve!

I have used an inhaler. Typically when they're prescribed, the doctor talks
to you about getting a "spacer", which is also a prescription item, I think -
or maybe you can buy it non-prescription; it's just expensive w/out a scrip.

The spacer catches larger drops against the sides, and somehow changes the
trajectory so that you can inhale more effectively, w/out painting the mouth.
That's important for a couple of reasons -
a) side effects like racing heart are greater when stuff is absorbed through
the lining of the mouth
b) the meds don't get to where they're needed
c) you increase the chances of developing thrush (oral yeast infection)
when you coat your tongue w/ the stuff. (at least the corticosteroid
inhalers)

Somebody who called me about making food for a Democratic Party thing
told me when I mentioned my ears and my upcoming trip about these little
plugs they sell at Walmart called "Earplanes."  I went out there and
looked at the box yesterday but decided they might be bad instead of
good because the directions said to blow out your ears (as in hold your
nose and clear the ears) before inserting the things.  Since it is
impossible for me to clear out my clogged ears, I would be inserting
them over the clog.  That might do more harm than good.  If my eardrums
break, they break.  At least that might release some of this horrible gunk.

>   And I was prescribed strong
> decongestants to be taken twice a day.

I bet they're the same ones I've been taking.  Mine are something like
gaucamole, generic for something like panmist.  I think.  With all these
drugs, it's hard to remember which is which.  I will report, however,
that nothing horrible has hit me yet from taking the drug that Karen
declared very evil.  I'm not sure that it's doing any good, though.

Remember a while back when somebody mentioned noticing more and more
spam from names/addresses similar to ones he/she had recently sent mail
to?  I've been noticing that more and more.  And I've been noticing
things like names from my genealogy pages being given as the senders for
spam.  I find this creepy.  I really can't imagine that spammers are
busy looking through things like my genealogy webpages and pulling out
names to use for just my personal spam.  But I wonder whether some kind
of fancy program is crawling the web quickly gathering appropriate names
to personalize spam.  I've been noticing it for weeks but am thinking
about it right now since I just got spam from Clay Milligan, a dead
g-grandfather.

This is albuterol (trichloromonofluoromethane and dichlorodifluoromethane
with oleic acid.  Is that a corticosteriod?

Why are you posting?  I thought you were on the road.

Mine is psuedoephedrine with guaifensesin which is the exact same thing
that the over-the-counter stuff, is although the prescription stuff looks
very different and is supposed to be 12 hours.

My father disapproved of leaving right away, so my mother is anxiously
holding back till after Christmas. Then, I don't know what will happen.
Dad will probably disapprove more, and Mom will keep holding back waiting
for him to think it's a good idea instead of doing what she thinks she
needs to do. It's typical behavior for them. I am "on call" to do whatever
she /they want.

At least you are doing better than the guy who was spraying the outside of

I'm beginning to find it odd that I do not get a single scrap of spam.  GWI
has a spam filter you can set, which I did.  But I don't even get any spam
filtered out in the place where you can check.  Zero, nada.  I'm assuming
it's because I have a brand new email address.  But I wouldn't think it
would take long to be found out.

No, albuterol is what I use as a "rescue" inhaler - it lessens symptoms
w/ the least side effects of anything I have tried. Try using a toilet
paper tube if you don't want to buy a spacer.

Also, did he/she tell you abt doing two puffs, five minutes apart?
The first one gets in as far as it can with you inhaling weakly, and
opens up the passages a little in the 1st 5-10 min. Then you have a
stronger breathing apparatus, and can breathe deeper and suck it in
farther on the 2d pull, so it will help more.

An allergist taught me that, as well as giving me the spacer.

Thanks.  I was given instructions by the doc and in the insert.  I'm
thinking now that maybe I'm doing it right and that I just don't feel the
mist hitting my throat when maybe it actually is.  Perhaps the  nerve
endings on the tongue and top of mouth are more sensitive than the nerve
endings in the throat.  I didn't feel the swab hit my throat either
although it certainly set off a gag and a coughing fit as did the
under-the-tongue thermometer.  I do have a swollen lymph node.  But it's
the wrong one.  The doc was puzzled by that but didn't seem overly concerned.

Thanks.  That's helpful.  She told me a minute apart and didn't give me the
reason, which makes lots of sense.

I don't remember any mist hitting my throat either when I was
prescribed  the same drug. Just hold your breath as the directions say
after breathing in as  you spray. A spacer isn't necessary.

Hope you feel better soon!

Jodi's inhaler seems to work best when she takes a deep breath and squirts
the inhaler in the middle of that breath.  You want the incoming air to
carry the stuff further back.  But I could ask her when she wakes up.

I just looked at the bottle.  Mine is GUIAFENEX PS80-800MBTAB -- Generic
for PANMIST-LA-80-somethingcoveredupbyasticker.  It's also a 12-hr thing.

I'm about to take Spencer to Furrbabies.  Have to do it this morning
since they're closing for drop-offs/pick-ups from noon today until
Friday.  My house is going to be very lonesome tonight.

Jodi says:

First I shake the inhaler -- you have to do that, or else you don't
get a good dose.

I put it in my mouth and my teeth are on top and bottom of it, I almost
kind of bite it.  My tongue is touching the bottom of the inhaler.  The
inhaler is angled up slightly to the roof of my mouth, so I don't know how
it would end up on her tongue.  (She adds: "I could see how she's getting
it on her tongue: she's doing it wrong. My dad [a nurse anesthetist]
taught me.")

I breathe out through the inhaler, then take a big breath.  Near the end
of the breath I do the inhaler.  You're supposed to hold your breath to
make it really work, though.  I usually don't.

I add my best wishes to Adam's.  And two other notes:

You're still working, though, right?  I hope so (for the caretaking breaks
it would give you, but not if that's not your preference).

Also, have you checked into any of the caregiving lists?  I lurked on one
for a while when my mother was post-stroke and living at our house and was
noir-ly amused.

Does she have the kind that you are supposed to put in your mouth because
usually you do not put it in your mouth?  Larry has one that you do, however.

NPR is broadcasting Lessons & Carols from King's College.
It's really lovely.  I need to go to Schnucks to get
groceries for our Christmas feast, but this sounds too
pretty to leave.  Ah, well, I'll go to Lessons and Carols
tonight at 10:30 anyway.

All gifts are bought and wrapped, now I just have to cook.
I'm not doing most of the traditional things I make, like
the Italian fried cookies, because it's all too much for
just the three of us to eat.

Dinner tonight:
Spanatatarokopita

Breakfast tomorrow:
Homemade Oatmeal Bread with jam

Christmas Dinner:
Orange Rum Duck
Basmati Rice
Sweet Potatoes
Cranberry Sauce

Desserts:
Pumpkin Pie (maybe two -- Kevin and Ana fight over it so much)
Christmas Cookies
Eggnog

        Why would I waste food?  It's our Christmas dinner, and we'll
eat just what we like.

What a refreshing attitude.  I don't think I've ever sat down to a
greenless meal (as in a sit-down nice meal).

And this eating discussion makes me think I should go buy some nabs or a
balance bar or something since I won't have much time in Memphis between
flights and since you never know whether you're going to get anything to
eat on airplanes these days.  And I can't remember what's available in
the neighborhood when I finally get to NYC tomorrow night -- not much in
the way of convenient, decent eating, iirc.

It's not odd.  I have a bunch of email addresses which I have had
for a while (like years), and they don't get spam.  I do not tell
them to people who use them to send me things from questionable
places.  And I do not tell the addresses to questionable places.
That's what my Yahoo and Hotmail and Eudoramail accounts are for.
Also, I *am* a recluse.

Stop by the deli and pick up a sandwich.  No food on most flights.

Amsterdam entry:

We got a new cloth tablecloth and contrasting napkins (cream and
navy).  I'm going to set the table with the silver tonight.  I
think our pink dishes are going to clash amazingly, but maybe
it'll be ok.

Mimosas for breakfast with fresh squeezed oj

who cares about lunch

majool dates stuffed with cream cheese and an almond
dried fruits and nuts

salad
mashed potatoes
spinach lasagne
roasted vegetables (lots of peppers)

stuff from the bakery (mine looks like a mini chocolate bomb,
pat's looks like some creamy hazelnut thing)

mostly dark chocolate bonbons
port and stilton


(and we have both managed to get gifts for each other - somthing
we don't always manage, so it's very nice when we do)

I would put a couple of our delis up against any in the country in
quality.  Visitors here are quite impressed.  But some things here close
for a week or more at this time of year, and everything will be closed
tomorrow.  Even Walmart, I think.

If you go out, pick up a nice sandwich.  It'll keep over night in the
refrigerator.  I'm sure it would be better than anything you could purchase
on the flight.

I want to go to New York for Christmas again!  Maybe next year.

I am sure we define a deli as much different. I think of a deli as a place
with Jewish foods,fresh meats,chesses,bagels, lox and breads.

I haven't seen BB's original posting yet, but I will say that there are
several very good delis in Starkville.  But open on xmas day??  Before 8
a.m.??  That's pretty funny.

Meanwhile, however, I just went to NW's web page and saw that meals will
be for sale on the flight from Memphis.  I think I'll go find some nabs
this afternoon, though, just in case I don't find the for-sale-meal idea
tempting.  Here's its description:

http://www.nwa.com/services/onboard/special/meals.html

Too bad I no longer have any <status>.  I got used to free first-class
during those statused years.  I bet people in first class don't have to
buy their meals.

I'm wondering whether I should check in for my flight right now.  You
can do it online within 36 hours of departure, but I don't really see
the point.  It's not as if the Tupelo airport is likely to have long
lines.  I'd just as soon check in there and get real boarding passes
instead of ones printed with my wimpy printer.

And homemade sourdough dinner rolls (maybe).  One of our Jewish dinner
guests is on the Atkins diet.  But she's nice about it.  I'm going to
(maybe) make her creme brulee with Splenda.  She can have the egg and the
cream.  Just not the sugar.

I must be the only wordlsur that doesn't worry about Natalie. She has

Awww, poor baby!

It took an awful long time for me to fight off my annual Thanksgiving/

Give it time, watch your soaps, drink soup and chill with the cats.

I don't know about "a place with Jewish foods" particularly, but I
define a deli as a place with meats, cheeses, lots of different kinds of
breads (including bagels), interesting salads, etc. -- a place where you
can order sandwiches or just buy the ingredients and take them home.
One of the best places in town for all kinds of food is City Bagel,
which I would not really call "a deli" if describing it since I tend to
think of delis as having less seating space than City Bagel has, but it
really is a deli in its offerings.   And lots and lots of people pick up
stuff there -- like call or just go in and take the stuff home, in spite
of the ample seating.  It's closed for a couple of weeks now, though.  I
noticed Bulldog Deli was open when I passed it a little while ago.  I
thought about going in and getting a sandwich to put in the refrigerator
and take with me tomorrow, but I decided that's too much trouble.
Instead I bought a Pria bar, which is more convenient to carry.  When I
was heading out to Kroger to buy the Pria bar, I was reminded of another
deli in town that I've never been in and that seems unlikely -- as in it
has a name like C&J Bakery, is in an ugly strip-mall, etc.  But I've
heard many people say that it has fabulous sandwiches.  One acquaintance
of mine was saying that it has the best reuben sandwiches he has ever
had in his life, and he lived in NYC for many years (and is Jewish, in
case that influences food tastes).  I ought to try that place someday.
I did hang a community theatre poster on its door one time, but that has
been my only interaction with it.

Am I being <fussed over>?  I will say that I have no precedents for my
current situation.  Zero.  Have never experienced anything like this
before in my life.  (If fussing over means giving frightening warnings,
btw, then I can assure you that I do not like it.  I felt like a total
idiot going to the ER and telling the doctor about Karen's e-mail
mentioning ear infections getting into the brain.  When I mentioned it
to my own doctor later, he grinned and said, "That's what you get for
getting medical advice on the internet.")

I think this is the first time they've ever been invited anywhere for
Christmas dinner.  Susan said that Christmas is a very lonely, boring day
when you are Jewish.  Everything's closed and there's nothing decent on
TV.  They've never had goose.  So we thought we would share ours.  They
were delighted to be asked.

wasn't bad.  Then my throat and ears closed up.  Now I'm no longer willing
to just chill and bide my time until wellness.  I want this to be over.  Now.

        Well the ear infection/brain thing is possibly the stupidest
thing I've ever heard.  But I have vast experience with ear
infections.

Three men died on Christmas eve and were met by 
Saint Peter ar the pearly gates.

"In honor of this holy season," Saint Peter said, "you
must each possess something that symbolizes
Christmas to get into heaven."

The first man fumbled through his pockets and pulled out a lighter.
He flicked it on.  "It represents a candle," he said.

"You may pass through the pearly gates," Saint Peter said.

The second man reached into his pocket and pulled out a
set of keys.  He shook them and said, "They're bells."

Saint Peter said "You may pass through the pearly gates."

The third man started searching desperately through his pockets and
finally pulled out a pair of women's panties.

St. Peter looked at the man with a raised eyebrow and asked, 
"And just what do those symbolize?"

The man replied, "They're Carol's."

This will be the first time in 40 years that will not
have what we've always had - a Welsh meal:

Roast beef
Gravy
Potatoes mashed with beef stock
Green peas
Yorkshire Pudding
Homemade Apple pie with
  Ice cream

No alcohol, more's the pity.  And we'll just have to
make do with what will slide down Chris' throat.  To
Happier Days!

Alec was in Starkville for GoatRoast'94.  But we didn't explore the
town's offerings except for breakfast at the Starkville Cafe (a
biscuits-and-gravy kind of place) and the bbq we had at the roast.

People who've lived in England can't give blood (in the US) because of

I don't recall anything about ear infections getting into the brain,
Natalie. I think you extended a comment abt ears being close to the
brain. In spite of ear infections not getting into the brain, some
kinds of upper repiratory infections do become serious. EG, UR viruses
that can become meningitis, Strep that can become rheumatic fever, etc.

The fact that the dr chortled at you doesn't make it a bad decision to
go to a dr when you were in serious pain, either. I know that you hate
this situation; I know that you feel foolish asking for advice; I know
that you are hurting. I also know that we are fussing at you - but you
were resistant to getting checked out, and hey - we care.

Then I thank you again.  We are soldiering on here.  It is 54 degrees this
Christmas Eve in Downeast Maine.  It is raining.  The wind is blowing.  We
are watching the George C. Scott version of Scrooge.  Clyde is making Irish
Coffee, made with Scotch tonight.  We had our traditional Christmas Eve
meal of steak and french fries.  Back in Oak Ridge, Tennessee, we would
sometimes grill the steak in the fireplace.

By the way, the third cat, whose name you couldn't remember on the card, is
Drusis.  Xerxes, Drusis, and Sara, although Sara has no Christmas stocking
this year, having donated it to the less fortunate -- a little stray cat in
Wisconsin who has come in out of the cold and found an outside home with my
friend Rose Ann.

Merry Christmas Eve everyone and to all a good night.

Ya know, I once was asked to come and talk to a couple of parents. Their
kid had a little cold on Tuesday, on Weds had a 50/50 chance of living,
and on Fri was deaf. Guess what? The URI crossed the meningeal membrane.

I don't think it applies directly in Natalie's case, but it's strictly
speaking a case in point.

Well, yes.  My memory is that what she said was that ears are serious
business because they are "close to the brain."  What reason for
mentioning brain proximity is there if she didn't mean that the brain
could be affected?

Nobody knows where The White Dog is, btw.  I saw the Pres of the Humane
Society in Kroger today, and she said that he was very much present at
graduation, meeting parents, etc., but hasn't been seen since.  I'm
wondering if some student managed to grab him and take him home.  I hope so.

Is this online party ending?  I guess I should set nomail tonight in
case I forget tomorrow or the system fails or whatever.

Remember the good old days when there were sometimes empty spaces on
airplanes?  I was just looking at the seating maps for my flights on
this trip and see that the planes are jammed, as usual.  Oh well.
Crowded planes aren't as big a pain on short flights as on long ones.
And I managed to get pretty good seats by choosing them well in advance.

Ears, and other sensory organs in the head, as well as the spine, have a
lot of sensitive, delicate parts, as well as nerves leading directly to
the brain. My brother was born with a tumor around the auditory and visual
nerves - I was thinking abt this when you talked abt Chris, Lynne. Although
his tumor was benign, it wasn't completely removable, and any  mild
infection swells and tightens around the nerves, affecting his eyesight
and hearing.

 I can't speak for Karen; she may have had meningitis in mind - or she
may have been thinking about sensory nerve damage - no way of knowing.


Ear infections can result in tinnitus (which the
people on the list who have, will tell you is not trivial at all, but
madness-inducing, like having a live spider dancing in your throat), or
in permanent hearing loss - which your temporary bout of is teaching you
is NO FUN.

Anyway. Here's hoping yours is better soon!

Our festivities are essentially over. V's family Saturday,
mine today at my sister's farm. Mom roasted the turkey; I
had borrowed Anna's 4 & 7 yr old yesterday to bake cookies.
Sides were simple since we always have a potluck. It was a
half-gathering; only 14 people.

Each kid is receiving one present in the am,
there is no tree, no stockings, but nobody seems bothered.

We expect to go to LOTRIII tomorrow after Mercy gets on a
plane to Germany. Aaron is cooking "coke beef" - a version of
 something like bulgogi that he learned from my Japanese SIL.

Then it's catching up at work, or driving to SC, depending on
Mom and Aunt Tia.

If you mean corned beef, pastrami, liverwurst, other
wursts, all manner of cheeses,wonderful breads, yep,
we have delis.  But you'd probably have to go to a
larger city for fresh lox or gefilte fish.

See some of y'all Saturday -- 6:30 -- Red Cat.  I wasn't sure what to
make of Alan's note earlier tonight -- like what the plan had been
earlier that was going to enable both of them to come and what changed.
  I thought there would be followup explanations/discussion, but now I
must go nomail and then chug various medicines and then go to bed and
then wake up and then scrape ice off of car and then drive to Tupelo.

Yes - that is, that is what we did not have.  Chris
can actually eat shrimp, so he had steamed jumbo
shrimp with hot cocktail sauce (don't ask, I don't
know how his throat can take it, but the more
horseradish and hot sauce, the better), and I had
lobster tail with lemon butter (not Pam) and we both
had applesauce cake with cream cheese frosting.

I'm really not into flattering people, where flattering=insincere
praise.  However, anybody who would choose butter over (retch) Pam is OK is

We appreciated your card.  At the risk of overoptimism, Bonnie seems a
little bit better.  If she can get some good rest tonight and survive
tomorrow, she ought to be OK.  However, like your situation, it's likely to
be a long haul.  Whatever viruses are going around this year, be they flu
or common (uncommon?) cold,  they seem to be tough customers.

Happy holidays to all, and to all a good night.   And Natalie--have a good

To all who are celebrating this season, in whatever
way, and are signing off early, Happy, Safe, and
Healthful holidays.  Acording to legend, all animals
speak at midnight on Christmas Eve, but they won't do
so if humans are listening.  This could be a blessing
or a curse.

Oh, and don't forget to leave the frozen broccoli out
for Santa.

        Butter or olive oil.  NEVER Pam.  There's a reason I'm a

I grew up listening to this on Christmas Eve and it's

didn't catch it this year.

Freedom is no kids, no pets, and the house is paid for!

Freedom for me has been all of the above,
plus no regular social commitments and no
memberships in organizations.    My
calendar is free.  I go to lunch when I feel
like going to lunch, not because it is the third
Tuesday or the first Wednesday.  I am not in
danger of being elected to any kind of post.
I pay no dues.  I do my yawning in my easy
chair at night, not in meetings.  Whee.

Thanks Rita.  Dumb luck it was.  I didn't even know/notice that
this guy was in St. Louis.

Santa brought me a European bird handbook so I can identify
what's flying around, and a Leatherman tool for Patrick.

I'm beginning to regret my ambitious dinner and so am
procrastinating.  It won't be so bad once I get started.

Well, we do have cats and in a way I belong to organizations/pay dues---to
things like The Nature Conservancy and the Farnsworth Museum.  I remember
the feeling of freedom/closure when I took the last load of professional
journals and communications to the recycling center.  And every time (not
often) that I am tempted to volunteer for some board or other, I remind
myself that just because you can doesn't mean you have to.

I've been using inhalers for years, for asthma.  It's impossible to tell
anything from the question as posed; what kind of inhaler is it?  That is,
can you describe the physical structure of the inhaler?  There are various
delivery mechanisms, and there are some aspects of inhaler use that aren't
intuitive, though your doctor or pharmacist should have explained those.

You've forgotten about the most important thing: American exceptionalism.
Last year, the U.S. was quick to ban imports of Canadian cattle when a mad
cow was discovered north of the border.  But this U.S. cow is no reason to
be concerned because, well, just because.

I just wanted to point out that you should be careful with your inhaler
because one's mouth is, or should be, close to one's brain, even though the
relationship between the two is often no more than distant cousinship.

Don't know why you say that, except that you
are just being Marty.  Of course it is a reason
to be concerned, and of course other countries
are banning our meat just as we did theirs.

Here's a coincidence for you . .
MCD can stand for Mad Cow Disease
but it's also the symbol for McDonalds.
Oooh, the're gonna be hurt.

        Fun!  I'm going to get a field guide one of these days.  I
had one from the library for a few weeks this summer.  I
recommend a little collection of essays called _The Verb 'To
Bird'_.

        Kevin got a mini-leatherman (I bought him the real thing
years and years ago) that he can put on his boat keychain
for those unexpected repairs... plus some other junk.

        I got a pearl necklace and pearl drop earrings, and some books.

        Ana got several snazzy outfits, lots of Breyers, a brush set
for real horses, and all kinds of assorted stuff.

        The dogs got rawhide bones, which Vinnie found and opened
before Christmas ;).


> I'm beginning to regret my ambitious dinner and so am

        I've been thinking about those stuffed dates all day.  I need
to make those.

It seems to be my destiny to just be Marty.  But I say this because I am
enjoying the hypocrisy of the American beef industry.  For much of the last
year they fought tooth and nail to ensure that Canadian beef doesn't enter
the U.S. This has driven up U.S. beef prices by about 30% and led to what
amount to windfall profits in the meat industry.  Yesterday, the same folks,
were protesting that U.S. beef is perfectly safe, and that we should all eat
with perfect sanguinity (which makes a nice little play on words, I think).
This is what I mean by American exceptionalism. In fact, there's little
difference between the risks of BSE in the U.S. and Canada.

In an environment where the U.S. regularly violates trade agreements with
other nations, I think we can expect to see swift retribution, now that
other nations see an opportunity.  By the way, if the Canadian experience is
illustrative, cattle farmers in the U.S. are in for a year or more of
devastation.

Steph, you almost startled me! I was on the verge of thinking you've
given up vegetarianism - talking of bird handbook in the midst of the
dinner topic. Ooh! Sorry! (Perhaps it's not wise to tell you with the
same breath what I cooked for Christmas...)

Well, you did it! All of you posting, and answering my message.
Yesterday before leaving the computer I sent 'set-mail'-message to the
list server.

Today, together with reading the messages in my mailbox I also keep the
archives open - to have a look at messages I've missed if I do not
understand some point.

I downloaded new Netscape version a few days ago, and besides its good
points there's a bad thing, too. Namely, the computer got very slow.
Even when typing a message I sometimes have to wait until the words will
be seen on the screen. I hope somebody will help me to solve the problem
at some time after Christmas.

And now there's a strange thing I can see at the top of the window of
this message, i.e. where the address is: it says, "To: Kristin.Sarv@..."
and, "Cc: WORDS-L@...". ??? I wonder how it'll be shown when the message
arrives.

No, I do not like it! I must choose "reply all" when answering this.
While earlier just "reply" would've done. Whereas the message I just
sent  as a reply to Steph's automatically had the good old way of
picking up the right address of the list. :(

You know, I thought of you when I wrote this, Rita. It seems odd to me that
I have such an automated reaction to "it never happens"  - I seem compelled
to say "well actually I knew of a case where" - even when I don't care and
know that no one else does either. I guess I live in a universe heavily
populated by exceptions to the rule. Maybe Forrest Gump, while it irritates
me almost as much as "Shoshona", is an appellation I should learn to live
with.

I, on the other hand, have campaigned for years to forget Christmas -
but now that we've had this quiet day I am thoroughly bored, and so it's
lucky we are going to the cinema in an hour to watch LOTR.

Mercy is in at the airport waiting for her flight to leave. I'm abt to
go make pizza.

Merry Christmas to all!

You might also mention the boon to the industry

I think this is a larger factor.

I think it highly likely that our U. S. beef supply
is safe.  I have questioned for a long time the
safety of meat we import because some countries
do not have the strict inspections systems they
should have.

And I think it's time more attention is given to the
safety of vegetables we import.  This does not mean
I think we should not import vegetables, but we
should not import unsafe unclean vegetables.

I also have campaigned for years to forget Christmas.
When I think of the time and money involved,
the worry and concerns, the physical and
mental exhaustion, the confusion, the WORK.
Oh phooey.

I think I wouldn't mind pretending for a day that
we live in a log cabin or a sod house . . going into
the woods to cut our own tree . . exchanging a few
handmade gifts . . sharing a good meal.  But NO,
we must spend a lot of money to give people
things they may or may not need and probably
don't want or won't use, when if we all
quit doing that everyone would have money to
buy for himself the things he needs and we'd all
be happier.

Bah humbug.  It will never happen in my time.

        I wonder how many people are actually really on that diet at
any given time.  And I wonder how much of it is offset by
the large number of people choosing vegetarianism these
days.  When I was a kid, you hardly ever heard of a
vegetarian.  Now, every other person I know is one.

        I don't think our meat supply is terribly safe.  They're
always recalling the stuff.  I read that if they did nothing
more than feed cows a natural grass diet (as opposed to
corn) a few days before slaughter, we'd cut the e. coli
problem drastically.  We cause our own problems.  Just let
the goddamned things be cows.

Well, of course I may melt broccoli, and sure our guinea pig becomes

I've seen some statistics on the Atkins thing but
don't remember.  I know that in my own experience
I am hearing people all around me talk about their
Atkins diet.  In the last month I can count one
vegetarian I have eaten with and 12 people on Atkins.
The Atkins thing is probably very temporary, however,
and will pass.  Those who go veg probably continue
veg.

Two or three thoughts come to mind:  A few years ago when
there was a particularly scary case of e. coli, it was traced to
uninspected meat from New Zealand.  We must not assume
that all meat in our stores is our own inspected meat, without
checking labels.

When you think of the enormous amounts of meat consumed
every day in this country, the reports of anything contaminated
are very very few.

Re grass:  You will find less and less of it.  Our meadows
have been plowed up and planted.  Such a shame.

We can be glad that when some questionable meat has been
found we have systems that can trace the origin of the animal
and the routing of its products.  You will hear more and more
about an industry out here that puts chips into the ears of each
animal with all its history, allowing them to be followed from
birth to death.

It is a bit after 2 pm, 46F, with a steady rain.  (It is 45F at Fort Kent,
ME, way, way north of here.)
  It was a little warmer before the rain started.  Bizarre month---two
significant snowfalls, single-digit days and nights, howling winds, and now
this.  They say that we could wake up to a slight amount (1 inch) of snow
in the morning.

The goose is in the oven and the bailing of the grease has begun.  Bonnie
has the creme brulee done and the dough for the rolls is on the rise. Back
to the oven.

We're having a lovely sunny day.  Ana is outside playing
with one of her new toys.  Dinner is about 15 minutes from
the table, having been fairly painless to put together.  I'm
just sipping some Perrier from a piece of the Waterford and
waiting for stuff to finish cooking.

We've simplified some of our Christmas, but not as much as
I'd like to.  It isn't much of a "holiday" for me with all
the cooking, cleaning, and shopping (and these are just a
few of my favorite things... bleh!).  I wouldn't mind
reducing it all to church and a nice dinner.  Perhaps when
Ana is older.  I always feel so overwhelmed by all the junk
that arrives... I'll spend the next week clearing all the
crap out to make room for the new crap.

You can eat whatever you like.  It doesn't bother me!

Dinner was too ambitious.  Patrick made the salad.  We skipped
the roasted vegetables.  It took me 2.5 hours to assemble the
lasagne.  I almost forgot about the dates.  We are now settling
before we get to dessert.

Ours was simple. Wayne brought some huge fresh crab which we cooked
today.  We also had ravioli, wine, and pie.  Larry left to take the kids to
the airport so they could fly to Phoenix for the Insight Bowl. Our star
receiver broke his arm in practice last Sunday. :-(

I'm having another glass of wine.

Younger people (high school and college age) tend to be
vegetarians, middle-aged and older people tend to follow
the Atkins (pig out and lose weight) diet.

They might pig out on meat and vegetables . . but
not on the potatoes, bread, pasta, and desserts they
were pigging out on before.  I think some have learned
too that because they can eat meat does not mean
they should eat huge quantities of it.  People with

There are no circumstances under which Wonder Woman fits. As for the FGish
thing, I don't admit to anything of the kind. I was very talkative, which I
have been amply - and appropriately - punished for.

Look at the topics: Colds, Rheumatoid Arthritis, Closed Captioning,
- oh, and setting zippers. All of these are traditional girlie topics* over
stitch and bitching, in fact very far from my norm. I feel quite a lot more
like Little Women than Wonder Woman, looking over that list. Blecch.


* CC may not be a traditional topics, but ministering to those feeling
under the weather, surely!

>Ours was simple. Wayne brought some huge fresh crab which we cooked

I put in an extended shift at the kitchen - 7 am until about 2 pm.
(The kitchen's closed until the day after New Year so there was
loads of extra stuff to do after getting out the holiday meal.)

Then a bunch of us went to nearby Chinatown for a meal.
Sadly, the wait staff did not entertain us with Dashing thro'
the snow ...

Quiet, fun, and
Peace is lovely.

I made potato skins and burgers before we went to LOTR.

V made a "camp breakfast" this am - omelet, ham steak, and
"camp" coffee. No, not with eggshells- this was the modern
version, in a presspot.

Some of these might surprise you because they are unexpected,
others are surprising even though expected, and a few are just
singular ... <http://www.barewalls.com/whatshot/alltimers.html>.

Expected: tons of "successories" and pictures of the twin towers.

Expected: all the dumb French posters (remember, every decently
sized town has a zillion "offbeat" bars and coffee shops...)

Somewhat unexpected: the complete, total triumph of Vincent
van Gogh. Any explanation?

Expected but needs explanation: Georgia O'Keefe, "Red Poppy";
Picasso, "The Old Guitarist". They are everywhere, but WHY?

Unexpected: So who's the king among the old farts going for
a nonexistent past? Many are going to guess Norman Rockwell.
Wrong--there isn't a single one in there. It's ... Jack
Vettriano!

Highly unexpected: I have never seen fire engines and biplanes
and dumper trucks by Simon Hart. Who is buying them? And is
there some kind of institution which would naturally buy them?

Singular: These leave me guessing. I mention my lame theories,
but I am aware they are weak and insufficient ...

* Two women in bed (morons who think and say that e.g. Playboy is
  an artistic, well-produced, classy magazine)

* "Kramer" (no, I don't know, I just don't know why anyone would BUY)

* "Lenin Forever" poster (perhaps on the lines of the subtle joke
  made by thinking Presbyterian ministers: "Nietzsche is dead -- God")

* Lichtenstein, "Drowning Girl" (ch*ks to whom it SPEAKS)

* "Maldive Morning" (no interest, please ban it for a couple years)

* "John Belushi - College", "Dancing Bears", "A Friend in Need" (no,
  I don't know, I just don't know)

* Hieronymus Bosch, "Garden of Earthly Delights" (the least explicable
  bestseller of all)

Barry and Susan enjoyed the goose (the first one they have eaten)---not
much in the way of leftovers, for which I'm happy.  The bones are in the
freezer, waiting the next stock exercise, the kitchen is clean, Bonnie has
given up and gone to bed.  Now to feed the cats and head off to bed
myself.  I rather imagine that tomorrow will be devoted to a little more
inactivity than usual.

My thoughts are with you Lynne, cancer and its treatments are not easy for
anyone involved.  I wish both you and Chris the best.

Meanwhile, we will try to fill your head with more than you ever needed to

        We all live in that universe.  But you remind me of my
husband when he is being completely irrational.  He'll tell
me not to do something because of some obscure and
completely meaningless reason.  For example, I was once
interested in buying a red truck.  He was against the truck
because it was a bad deal (it truly was a bad deal), but
instead of telling me the truck was a bad deal, he decided
that my dog would "freak out" if he rode in the extended
cab.  Now, I suppose there was a remote possibility that my
dog would not like riding back there (in fact, he prefers
the passenger seat of my current truck), but that was hardly
a good reason upon which to base a decision.  It was
downright bizarre.  Natalie, suffering an ear infection,
should have gone to the ER to get some relief cuz ear
infections suck.  However, telling her to go to the ER
because the infection could spread to her brain is enough to
make one dismiss the person giving the advice because the
warning is so unlikely.

        This tendency to dredge up meaningless stories is
interesting, and perhaps Forrest Gumpish, but no more
Forrest Gumpish than any of us are, for Forrest Gump (the
movie) is really a metaphorical depiction of the Exceptional
American*. The hero of all our classic novels and history is
always not too bright, lucky, and kind**.  I'm not calling
you not-too-bright, lucky, or kind (although the second
adjective is a possiblity, and third seems true), but if you
insist on being imbued with the American Character, you can
hardly expect people not to respond.***


*cf Marty-who-will-be-Marty
**oops, forgot the Protestant work ethic
***that said, I think Doris, aka Pangloss, is really far
more Forrest Gumpish than you are.

        I've met a lot of middle-aged vegetarians lately.  For
example, nearly the entire English Dept. at WGHS is
vegetarian.  I had no idea until recently.

Why is Rembrandt's "Return of the Prodigal Son" so popular?

Please, read on only if you can stomach it.

It's because it's GAY. It's truly so phenomenally GAY that
it's vastly GAYer than any kneeling peasant or fallen rider
painted by Caravaggio (a total GAY).

Sorry, them's the breaks.

        Yes.  If I'm typical, as a former vegetarian, I've never
really gone back to eating a lot of meat.  Usually just
dinner, if that.

        I see a recall on the TV every other month or so.  We've had
two severe outbreaks of e. coli in St. Louis recently -- one
at the Children's Hospital.

        I'm not sure everything is reported.

        It is just as easy to plant a pasture as it is to plant a
corn field.   And they only have to eat grass or hay for
three days.

        I'm not sure what knowing their histories has to do with
using better and safer methods of farming -- seems to me
you'd be better of spending the money on the grass to
prevent the problems in the first place.

No hating please. You didn't notice the earlier humor of calling
a woman "dude". Merry Xmas, talk to you when you are sober ...

Maybe something has to sell only once or twice to be on the best sellers
list.  I bet the market is very slow.  This is NOT amazon.com.

In fact, I bet 50% haven't sold at all, and are some marketers joke or
weird guess.

Happy Holidays to you all!

As for NY, our intent was to take some sort of public transportation into
and out of NY.  Into is no problem, out is.  The last chance is Amtrak at
7:30 pm, hardly time for a meal.  So Alan has generously offered to hold
the fort while I travel.  This also means I need to find some
accommodations and return Sun. am.  While doable, I have been rather
involved on the home front and have not pursued this much.  There's always
tomorrow.

Christmas eve dinner:
Breton-Style mussels
Baked talipia
Carrots
Sauteed asparagus

Christmas brunch courtesy Alan:
Sausage
Scrambled eggs

Christmas dinner:
Roasted Turkey
Mashed red potatoes
Green Beans
Butternut Squash
Gravy
Cranberry Sauce
Whole Wheat Bread with Raisins
Apple and Pumpkin Pie
2 kinds of Cheddar cheese


And to all a good night...

Terry

Ha! There are more people like that than you think ... I
have two explanations: one, they intuitively know something
is a bad idea but can't readily produce the explanation.
Two, and this is less benign: they don't think the other
person can grasp the real explanation. And when you think
about it, the first reason is just as bad as the second
one ... saying "I have a bad feeling, give me a little
time to figure out why" is the right thing, but hard to
do if you trust neither the other person nor yourself.

I have a couple of examples from my family. I have also
seen a couple of reasonably good software proposals go
down the toilet due to inappropriate selling by weaklings.

ungrateful wastrel.  Maybe your explanation is the

I bet you're right, but these prices aren't bad, and

Thank you. I thought long and hard about this analogy, like
a lawyer who does not underestimate the jury. I have always
been told that my analogies are like a day with orange juice.

Yeah, and when faced with middle-aged spread all but
the most fervent vegetarians ditch it and jump on some
variation of the Atkins bandwagon, from what I've seen.

I'm sure there are older vegetarians but many* people
seem to give it up a few years after college.

* many, not all - hi pat'n'steph!

I've noticed a similar phenomenon, and the reason given, universally,

I wish it was that easy!
The "Atkins thing" (low carb diet for life, not to lose
weight after overeating, but in response to insulin
resistance that caused obesity) is necessary to a lot of
us due to the fact that insulin resistance slides into
diabetes II.

It's a real dilemma for me - and presumably I'm not the
only former vegetarian in this fix.

I very rarely (almost never) meet vegetarians (middle-aged or
otherwise) in Delaware. Philly, yes.

I like it but I desire it less as I've aged. I eat very little of it and
could easily become a vegetarian, except I would have to have a good juicy
hamburger once in a while.  You know, the kind that you bite into and the
juice runs down your arm.

To respond to Rita:
Again, I have no idea what was in Karen's mind when she made
the statement. Natalie was still right to go to the Dr., and
the Dr. was still unkind to laugh when she asked a question
she had in her mind - especially when there is a lay logic
to what she was thinking. But I've noticed that Drs, like most
"learned" people, love to laugh indulgently at people who
"get things wrong" by having another idea.

This is interesting insight. Inappropriate selling is a good description of
giving the
wrong reason for wanting people to do something.

What exactly defines "weaklings" in this context?

= Somewhat unexpected: the complete, total triumph of Vincent

I think it's because 1) you want the cd, this is where it's sold, 2) it's
easy to study art by studying van Gogh (or, it's easy to think
it's easy to study art by starting with van Gogh), 3) if you
thrive on visual stimulation, Vincent's the man, 4) lots and lots
of van Gogh on exhibition lately, 5) go stand in front of one and
see if you don't go wow.

(Disclaimer: I have been to the van Gogh museum probably 5 times,
and the Kroller-Muller twice.  I grew up with a print
of the sunflowers and was fascinated by the story of a guy who
cut off his own ear.  I have a new catalogue of all his works, a
refrigerator magnet of "Terrace de Cafe" and in the bedroom, a
print of "Bedroom at Arles".  At the apartment, there's a poster
from the Gaugin/van Gogh exhibition, and I went to the Art
Institute a lot as a kid (once or twice a year).

The only reason they seem to have found this case is that the one
they tested couldn't stand up. Testing around 20000 from 35 million
is not going to find much of anything.

You wish what was that easy?  Not eating a lot of meat?

Are you saying that a low carbohydrate diet is necessary for the insulin
resistant?  The two women I know who are very into Atkins never mentioned
anything about that.

I don't understand.  What's the dilemma?  Our Atkins diet Christmas dinner
guest was amazing.  God, did she eat.  I'm sure she consumed twice the
calories I did.  She didn't have a sweet potato or a dinner roll.  But she
ate about five helpings of goose.  I made a creme brulee with Splenda for
her and she had that un-bruleed.  Cream has no carbohydrates.  I hadn't
realized that.  Milk does.  The most amazing thing was the gusto with which
she ate.  She really shoveled it in like maybe she was starving.  Or maybe
it's just me.  I have no appetite with this cold and pretty much have to
remind myself and force myself to eat regularly throughout the day.

It's okay not to eat when you don't feel well.  Listen to your body but
force those fluids!

On the feast of Stephen, we have snow which is so much more pleasant than
yesterday's rain and 50 degree temps.  It's only supposed to amount to an
inch or so.  Don't even have to shovel that!

Clyde is still in bed this morning.  Poor guy had to do most of the kitchen
cleanup by himself.  I'm feeling marginally better.  And I am forcing my
fluids, Betty.  It's easy to do because the meds make my mouth feel like
the Sahara desert.

Perhaps this will lead to more testing then.
Does the UK do more testing since their
industry went through this?

Three: discussing the real explanation will bring up forbidden or
sensitive topics.

Four:  they think focussing on the real reason will put them at a
disadvantage in the power struggle.

Five:  they are tired of arguing over the real reason and think it will be
to their advantage to change the strategy.

She says everyone should hop on the next flight and get there as fast as
you can. She loves NYC and everything is wonderful. There was the brief
discussion of moving there but I reminded her or her hair problem.

She is having absolutely the most fabulous time. The flight was full but
not unpleasant, and the ears did not explode. The hotel is wonderful but
she did have a terrible salad.

She seems overly worried about her smooshed hair because she mentioned it a
few times. She is afraid she won't be selected to be a model, but it's
windy so she has to live with flat hair.

She is roaming the streets and just enjoying being there and looking
forward to riding the subways now. She will probably run into Janet and the
boys.

It was fun talking to her and she sounded great.  Brad, there is a message
on your machine. The computer she just tried using is broken.

        I'm not a big fan.  Ana, on the other hand, has been in love
with his work since pre-school.  I bought her a little
children's biography of van Gogh a few years ago, and she
still reads it regularly.  I have a piece of needlework on
her wall (I don't know where it came from) that is very
reminiscent of his style.  I should buy her a print of
Starry Night.  Maybe when I paint her room this year.

        As it has done for my husband.  That's why I still eat meat
at dinner with him, although typically I don't eat that much
-- he eats it all day.  I did manage to eat very minimal
sugar/corn syrup (none obvious, but I'm sure I ate it
inadvertently) for several months last year, but fell off
the wagon during the 'fest.  I'm ready to start cutting out
sugar and drastically reducing white flour again, though.  I
just need to find something to spread my taromosalata on
(Dad has been sending me the big $4 jars since it is safer
to ship the stuff when it is cold and I really, really love it).

        Eat lots of cheese!  Yeah, that would suck.  I need to lose
20 pounds.  I'm terrified of diabetes.

        Or one of those frozen vegetarian dinners from Whole Foods,
which is what they all seem to eat every day.  Nobody knows
what I eat since I don't go to the teacher's lounge for
lunch.  It's a secret.

Same here.  I got the warning from my doctor and bought the book "Eat Away
Diabetes" by Kristine Napier. I lost 20+ pounds.

I wish it were possible for a low-carb diet to be very

Possibly not. There are lots of people out there doing the Grapefruit diet
still as well. Adam, however, has been talking about the necessity of
low-carb diet for his health, and many of us are in a similar pickle.

One way to think of it is that weight is sometimes the whole problem,
and sometimes a symptom of a different problem - just as a headache
is sometimes a symptom of something more serious. For the many of us
for whom obesity is a side-effect of insulin resistance, the low-carb
diet is key.

The dilemma is that I'd prefer not to eat such large quantities of animal
protein. It's really tough not to eat meat <and> control carbs. It's true
that there are lots of good foods still available.

Thanks.  I think I get it now.  One more question:  How does one determine
that one is insulin-resistant?  Would it be a blood sugar test?

There's a lot to be scared of. If you are serious about avoiding it,
instead of concentrating on the weight, see if your dr. understands
endocrinology well enough to run tests of insulin levels. If not,
maybe your husband's endocrinologist (diabetic specialist) will do it.

If you have high insulin levels, you are insulin resistant.
It's possible to take metformin (lets the body use insulin more
 efficiently) in a preventive dose in those circumstances.

The person I know who did this due to PCOS lost 40 lbs by
lowering her carb levels and taking metformin. Losing weight is the
effect of being healthier - not the other way around.

btw,
I don't do Atkins. I use a common sense low-carb diet that includes
one balanced meal and two low-carb meals daily - and low-carb snacking.
The hard thing is that falling off the diet means a long climb out of
lifelong habits of eating breads.

I've been in this net cafe before.  Had forgotten it.  Very much beats
the brain-dead system I was looking at when BB called.  Loved that
phone call.  Since then have had various WLMs, like walking past
Virgil's, walking past the BIg Virgin and remembering Adam's ecstasy
when in was inside the BV, etc. etc.

The much-better net cafe is on 42nd St. near Broadway.  I strolled
down here through the blasting cold, wearing my cap that is smushing

Just most things.  Great trip.

Regardless of whether it correct or not, jeez, this sounds so out

        I'm going to pull a Natalie and laugh at the idea of an
endocrinologist.  He doesn't have one.  We use our GP for
everything (I don't even have an OB/GYN -- since I'm not
having any babies anymore, I don't see the need for dealing
with their nonsense).

        I'm not insulin resistant.  And I'm at low risk of developing
diabetes as it doesn't run in the family.  My sister did get
diabetes (shots and all) when she was pregnant for Bay, but
she's weighed about 300 lbs. for as long as I remember, and
I suspect that has something to do with it.

        Are beans carbs or proteins?  I have a craving for white bean
soup.

        I don't take that much credit for it.  She's had excellent
art education in the public schools (none at all in the
private school -- that was a waste of money).  I didn't
acquire any art literacy until college, and I've enjoyed
what little I know -- a little bit of it goes a long way
when wandering through museums.  I'm glad she knows enough
to enjoy art, which I just think is a Good Thing with no
practical purpose whatsoever.  Of course, she's also been
exposed to everything else you mentioned, all Good Stuff.

I don't think a lot of children are exposed to the arts. I wasn't in
Montana. I think you learn to appreciate it all more if you are exposed at
a younger age. No? There is no doubt that I am out of touch.  It's easier
to be exposed to some of the things you listed.

One difference between art, literature and music vs. the other things you
mention is that adults label stuff kiddie art, kiddie lit, and kiddie
music, and some adults "expose" their kids only to the kiddie stuff.

Kiddie art is particularly loathsome, in my opinion.  Well, now I have to
take it back, because I like a lot of illustrations in children's books.
I'm thinking Disney-oid.

It's interesting to me that Ana likes this so much.  My mother took me to
NY MOMA once when I was a kid.  I basically didn't get it - until we
happened on A Starry Night.  I didn't want to leave it.

Actually I don't think even after they made me leave that room, I looked
at much else.  I wasn't through with A Starry Night, dammit.

Hey now I'm getting mad about my childhood.  She also dragged me away from
the slot machine on the Lake Michigan ferry WHEN I WAS WINNING!

That's fine. I first realized I had a problem in the late '70s, and
went to my dr., who prescribed a high-carb diet which made things much
worse. I spent 25 yrs talking to GPs who thought that the ADA diet
(low-fat, high carb) was the way to go. This continued even after I
found that I could control my weight (in the sense of slowing the
growing obesity) with a low-carb diet, and after I was diagnosed with DII.

It wasn't till I took my mother to her Dr - an endocrinologist who's
also a GP - that I heard of insulin-level testing and learned that there
are ways to prevent diabetes or lessen its impact. I have yet to find a
regular GP who understands the cycle. They all start the conversation
with "if you weighed less..."

I suspect so too. You might suggest to her that she look into insulin
resistance.

When I was a child we had art appreciation in class.
I particularly remember it as I picture myself in the
second grade room.  (I can see the room just as it
was and also my teacher Miss Hannum)

At regular intervals the teacher passed out to each
one of us a card with a beautiful painting by one
of the masters.  Those cards were my most priceless
possession.  I wonder whatever happened to them,
as I do have a box of things saved from grade school.

I'm confused again.  If I read the recent posts correctly, Rita is saying
that diabetes can be a result of obesity (lower your weight, lower your
risk) and Clo is saying that one becomes obese because one is insulin
resistant, a precursor of diabetes II.   I have never heard this Clo.  I
thought as Rita thinks.  Is it a vicious cycle or does one truly <begin> to
put on weight because of insulin resistance?  And how does one explain
individuals who are diabetic but are not overweight?

As an aside, I know one person who sees an endocrinologist and that is
because she had to have a cancerous thyroid gland removed.  She will be on
Synthroid all her life and that needs to be monitored.  But this
endocrinologist put her on estrogen and progesterone ten or more years ago
and told her that she should take it forever.  When the recent findings
came out about HRT, she stopped it, against medical advice.  I guess the
endocrinologist thought she needed it for her bones.  But there are less
risky ways to protect one's bones.

What problem did you realize you had and for what did the dr. prescribe the
high-carb diet?  You weren't yet diagnosed with diabetes at that time and
the dr. didn't know about insulin levels, so what was he treating you for?

        I have a few irrational fears.  I'm not sure this one is
totally irrational considering statistics, but it's not
really founded on anything other than being a chubby American.

        She, being an R.N., knows everything, including that her
various health issues are not in any way linked to her weight.

What intelligent questions!

Last first, because it's easiest: insulin-dependent diabetes (the pancreas
is worn-out, damaged, or malfunctioning, doesn't produce insulin/enough
insulin; the person can't metabolize sugars and starves no matter how much
is eaten) - juvenile type and late-stage adult type - is so severe that
weight is lost unless insulin injections are given to supplement what the
body makes, if any.

Here's a barebones description of insulin resistance and diabetes:
<http://www.wilstar.net/lowcarb/research/research12.htm>

Here's what I understand:
One particular type of overweight/obesity is in particular related to the
pattern of weight gain following insulin resistance: if you gain weight
around the middle (spare tire, beer belly, etc), you might be particularly
interested in a low-carb diet. Strictly avoiding carbs, with a balenced
diet that's rich in veggie vitamins, can allow the body to metabolize food
more normally in spite of problems producing or using insulin.

My weight gain began in a typical way: After being the same weight for
14 years or so w/ no particular effort or concern (147-152), I began to
gain weight at the rate of, oh, 2-3 lb/mo. It was in the belly area, mostly.
I couldn't change it by eating less; but I thought it was my fault because
-well, because everybody said so, and because I had cravings for sugar that
I couldn't control.

I went to a clinic, was diagnosed "hypoglycemic", and told to eat small
frequent meals of breads and fruit. It got worse; I started having dizzy
spells, shaking hands if I went without eathing. I got fatter quicker.

I was moving a lot back then, but doctors were uniform in what they told
me:
"you'd be in better health if you weighed less".
"Fine, tell me how to do that"
"Eat more carbs and less fat".

When I finally flouted their advice, I was able to stop the shaking hands,
the sudden irresistable mid-day drowsy spells, the cravings, and also the
weight gain. Unfortunately, by that time, I had become diabetic. Then, they
started giving me metformin. With metformin and diet, I have some control
over my life, and my weight. I am now losing abt 5-10 lbs/year. That's not
as much as I'd like; but it sure beats swelling up more!

Having said what I think based on my experience (20+ lb/yr weight gain
until I started limiting carbs and stopped limiting protein), may I also
say the jury is still out on lots of claims, and I do think that Atkins is
very extreme. Since I'm controlling what I eat to save my life, not to
lose weight, YMMV on another diet. Also, I'd like to point out that, in
opposition to the "high-protein = high fat" claim, I eat a relatively
lower-in-fat diet now because fried (breaded) foods are carbed, as are
(fried) chips, french fries, all those lovely dressings w/ HF corn syrup,
etc. Steamed, stir-fried, baked or raw veggies w/ stir-fried or grilled
fish, chicken, or red meat is a pretty clean menu. I do eat breads, more
than I'd like. But my diet would allow me one "balanced" meal a day, in
any case. I'll only go to strict low-carb if it's the only way to stay
off insulin.

<http://diabetes.niddk.nih> has a good description of insulin resistance,
according to the older medical model. It says that good diet is a key to
reversing or slowing the trend to diabetes, but advocates "low fat" instead
of targeting "low carb". It also says the people who lost weight on the
low fat diet didn't get diabetes as much. Of course not, because they
weren't at risk - they could lose weight eating carbs <because they weren't
insulin resistant and could metabolize the carbs>.

You'll see a lot of different names for the cluster of problems: Metabolic
syndrome, "Syndrome X", and so on. The different names finger different
starting points in the cycle; but the end of the cycle is pretty much the
same.

It <is> a vicious cycle. There is a hormonal component as well, particularly
for women - PCOS, polycystic ovarian syndrome is one name for it. PCOS
can include many cysts that set off bursts of testosterones (the generic
group, not the specific male hormone), but also there is some interaction
between insulin resistance, fat growth of a particular type (the fat also
produces the hormones), and the female reproductive cycle. It's complex,
and still unfolding in the medical literature. Lots of entry points into
the cycle, and they feed each other.

PCOS includes symptoms of heavy, irregular periods or no periods,
 infertility, hirsutism (heavy facial hair growth), male pattern baldness
in women, obesity in spite of ordinary diet, and of course increased risk
of heart attack, stroke, and the like.

Even without having the entire syndrome, getting older usually means
 getting a "spare tire". Typically, as people age, they begin to use
 insulin less efficiently. The more insulin produced in response to
 sugars in the diet, the earlier this can happen. Genetics is also a
 factor, of course.

I have no choice but to take diabetes seriously, and I will go to anyone
who takes <me> seriously. In general, GPs are good and skillful; but they
are so concerned abt not feeding into the predilection for fad diets, they
can't seem to hear this basic fact: high-carb, low-fat diets make a lot
of us fatter, not healthier.

My paternal grandmother died of diabetic complications. There were only
5 grandaughters out of 20+ grandkids; 3 of us have diabetes <and> PCOS
 symptoms. Of 11 aunts, I think three aren't diabetic. It's not a thing I
 can take lightly.

My mother's diabetes is due to damage to her system from the RA meds; but
 my grandmother and my 1st MIL both had classic PCOS symptoms and died of
 heart problems typical in PCOS.  I think DII is actually listed as a
cause of death on my gram's death certificate.

 My mom and daughter see the same endocrinologist, who's a specialist
in treating diabetes and familiar with PCOS. After literally 30
years of trying to find a dr who would work with me instead of telling
me to eat more carbs, I found one who sent me to a gynecologist who's
familiar with PCOS and could tell me why this is happening to me - to us.
This GP is not ideal - I think from time to time about seeing Mom's Dr.
But at least he listens to what I have to say, and reads the literature
instead of assuming he knows, based on what he was taught back in med
school, the Truth About Everything.
My HA1C last time was 6.2 - just this side of normal (longterm sugar
load).
But if someone is worried abt being high-risk for diabetes, I'd strongly
urge them to have their insulin levels tested, which is not something
GPs think about. They tend to wait till the damage is done, and then
say "oh, I see your sugar is high - how long have you been diabetic?",
and then hand out the old ADA diet advice (low fat, high carbs - a near
guarantee you will fail).

That's not as far-fetched as you might think. Her ob-gyn may have
said to her that gestational diabetes (while preggers) isn't linked
to weight in particular. etc.

And if she, like me, believes that the weight is a symptom of something
else, - particularly if she is tired to death of being told she is a
lazy slob who causes all her own problems by self-indulgence - she might
 be willing to listen to discussion of a question that doesn't blame
overweight people for causing their health problems.

Eeep! I hope you know I wasn't referring to you, but to movies, sitcoms,
drs, cow-orkers, Sunday school teachers, magazines, and the general public
public who reinforce that fat people are gluttons w/out self control.

My particular GP seems to have a different view.  When my cholesterol count
came back high (not alarm-bell-ringing high, but enough to be of concern),
he and I talked.  I was rather depressed because most of the things I like
turn out to contain reasonable amounts of cholesterol.  His reaction was
that it was damned difficult to avoid cholestrerol, and of course, not all
of it was bad.  The key (in additon to controlling the cholesterol
component within reasonable bounds) was to avoid simple carbs (white flour,
regular pasta, snack foods, etc.) so that I was metabolising the fats I
consumed.  In concept, his advice is somewhat like the Atkins approach, but
not nearly so fanatic.  So far, his advice seems to be working.

It being a small town and a small island, Clyde's GP plays badminton and
hikes with my friend April, who owns the Internet Cafe in town.  When April
quizzed the GP on one of their hikes as to what kind of diet was right for
her to lose ten pounds, he gave his standard advice:  "don't eat anything
white."

If the New Scientist is to be believed, tons of scientists
have been hollering for testing for close to a year. I
expect most got a pat on the arm and some wisdom about
how real life is different from the lab and how "other
countries" are much laxer ...

People who lie like this *to strangers* *by default*. Both
points are important. Someone who a priori believes that
deception is necessary, for a case whose real merits they
themselves see, is a shithead. I am disappointed I couldn't
work on something cool, but damn glad the shitheads lost.

        There's a psychological component.  As a child, she was
gluttonous according to the classic definition -- eating way
beyond when she was hungry, hoarding food in her room, etc.
  This always baffled my parents, since nobody else in the
family has ever had any particular food issues.  My niece is
also strange about food; she once ate an entire box of sugar
substitute.  Very odd.

        You can see/feel the energy.  There's nothing cold or
impersonal about a van Gogh.

I like shithead as a designation; clear and to the point.
Weakling confused me though.

        I don't see why it would be tough.

        Pica is eating dirt or laundry detergent, not ants.  I don't
know what would make you want to eat ants if they're not
normally on the menu.  I'm sure all sorts of things make you
crave certain foods.

1.  They are pictures -of- something.
2.  But they do not pretend to be realistic in a photographic way.  (So
there's more to look at and forget and notice again, in a way that keeps
you interested so you don't think, on second view, "oh I've seen that."
3.  There's a lot to look at, and you don't have to be particularly
sensitive to notice that there's a lot to look at.  By 'a lot to look at'
I mean a lot of action:  patterns, brush strokes, color vibrations.  I'm
supposing this is what Rita means by 'energy.'
4.  There's a mood, too, usually, but I don't know how important this is.
5.  I'm not sure about this, what this fifth point is:  something about
the action in #3 being RECOGNIZABLE action.  When I was a kid looking at
The Starry Night, it felt like looking at a very starry sky only more so.
You can get dizzy looking at it.  It's like some old Dutch man saw it
better than you, but with the same enthusiasm!    !!!  Maybe this is more
what Rita means by 'energy.'

Something about seeing something in a certain way and running with it.
Only not TOO far.

I can't remember why I thought the book was tacky.  But I stand by my
opinion.

The movie was slightly better.  Probably because it didn't have the girl's
narration, I don't know.  Because even though it's pretty obvious to have
the whole damned movie look like a Vermeer, still it strived for a
standard and was often good to look at.  I guess.

Thank god Spielberg didn't make this movie (but of course I wouldn't have
seen it in that case) .

Yup. I must say, now, that having been lower-carbing it for ...almost two
years now, I'm used to it. I do miss all the potatoes and bread I used to
eat, but I don't miss the weight I lost or how crappy I used to feel.

Carolyn, vegetables are your friend. Really. I dislike salad but I eat a lot
of it. It's either that or go hungry in my case. I also eat a lot of veggies
at dinner.

Pica is eating non-food items, as culturally defined (in other words,
some things count as food in one place but not another; when taboo,
they count as pica). One of the established reasons for pica is a
deficiency which creates a craving.

I did mispeak - it's folic acid, not B12, that ants are high in.

Sigh...ain't that the truth... I got that for 20 years, and I ate no more

I am happy to report that some parts of Christendom still honor the season
of Christmas  - and also put the tree up when it is supposed to go up.

At Gethesemani, monks cut the tree for the Guest House early on Christmas
Eve, then brought it to the Guest House, trimmed it a bit, and set it up
on our second-story porch. The Guestmaster had the decorations brought
out, then I stepped in and announced that there was no need for the
novices to decorate that tree, as had been announced, since I could do
that. (The novices happened to have a few dozen other things to do that
morning.)

I had a little help from two other retreatants, but I did most of the
decorating, creating a red/gold theme from the available decorations.

That was great fun - I had not decorated a tree at home for several years.
(And I won't have to take this one down on January 6!)

I've been incommunicado for several days -- no email (optonline is not letting me send messages again) and no computer (out of town) and kinda illin'. And therefore unable to report that there was no getting a reservation at The Red Cat for tomorrow. However, I did make a reservation for another Jimmy Bradley restaurant for tomorrow at 6:30 PM -- The Mermaid at 96 Second Ave http://www.themermaidnymc.com . For seven. It's a seafood restaurant, also supposed to be very good.

I don't know how to get in touch with everyone who needs this information. Where is Natalie staying? And Janet? Rashmi, Terry, please confirm if you get this.

I hope this works out. I left a credit card number with them for the reservation so I need to know by 3 PM tomorrow...

I can read via the list, just can't respond.

Marie

What?!  You're the last person I'd have picked to see this movie.

I didn't like the book and don't care for what I've heard of
the movie. I like Scarlett Johannson (sp.-where's K@r3n)
but it's not enough to get me to go.

Gotcha! We're meeting at Mermaid, not the Red Cat.

I'll contact Natalie tomorrow and tell her about the new venue.
Does anyone know where Janet and the dudes are staying?

Think numbers.  They don't have huge numbers.
That's why they import so many from us.

There is a more basic reason ... If they work for a person,
any person, they are not the answer to the question at all.

Yeah, why? What are the roots of this response to those paintings?
Did you somehow grow up among such images that this would pretty
much follow? Visible and perceptible "energy" is hardly inherent
in it.

I remember seeing my first (tiny faint black-and-white on yellowed
paper) image of Starry Night. I couldn't make head or tail of it,
and frankly thought it was ugly and dull, but bought what the
"explanation" beside it said, since it was easy enough to do.
For sure I GREW to like it.

Hey, they have just announced that "embedded"

work that in in some way.

Let's be honest. Are YOU prepared to say in public any

A little known fact about take-home lamb stew cooked Indian-
style is dogs go CRAZY after it. Have you ever seen a perfectly
ordinary-looking dog lunging at a white plastic bag with "Thank
You" printed on it? I have seen two. So when I was walking home
today carrying just this concoction, and saw a young bull-mastiff
type crossing my path, I said "damn"!

It never fails ... As I passed him I could hear his sharp intake
of breath, and an inchoate growl forming ... And then this damn
dog made a move towards me, and then with a titanic effort he
just stopped. You could practically feel his nerves overheating.
And I look down the street and there's some kid--the "owner"--
taking his damn time walking up, without the slightest awareness
of what was going on. That was a GOOD dog!

I think I was thinking of Bosch's "Last Judgement", but this
doesn't seem quite right either (though it certainly has lots of
nastiness).  Breugel also has that "Where's Waldo" level of
activity, but I'm sure it's none of his works.

How was Starry Night described when it was first shown, in 1905 or so?
I suspect we have been acculturated to view it as beautiful. If early
viewers "didn't get it", it would be a good indicator.

Thank you. The week was as close to perfect as possible, I think. We
even had light snow, beginning just afer I finished decorating the
tree - light, lovely flakes that never posed a travel threat. It snowed
like that for about two hours. Then Christmas Day was cold, but sunny -
lovely, lovely.

96 2nd Avenue or 96th and 2nd?  Will surely figure this out.
Terri is arriving at 1:50 at Penn Station -- staying at Pickwick
Arms.  I'm at Wellington.  Cell phone works, but I don't know its
number.  Have it written down at home.

Will cc this to the list in case it connects there better -- I know
that sentence makes no sense.

Ok, so I'm sure some of our group is not going to get the message
about the change.  How far apart of these two places?  (I know how
far it is from 10th Ave to 2nd Ave -- I just haven't had a chance
yet to figure out the where on 2nd.  If it's 96th and 2nd, we're
talking far.  I was trying to figure out whether it would be possible
to be at the RC at 6:30 to gatyher lost Wordslers and then get to
the Mermaid by 7.

Wish I hadn't given that man my $1 cookie I bought to get change for
the computer machine.  I want it now.

I've found my cell phone number: 662-242-0723.  I'm going to try in
a little while to get a ticket for 2 p.m. for "Cat on a Hot Tin Roof."
Because it's a limited run, there wouldn't be any discount tickets
at Times Square (which is good in a way since the line there this
morning is the longest I've ever seen it).  Am going to go by the
box office.

Good work, Betty and Marie!  I just checked today's archives for updates.
Terry does not know yet, afaik.  What time does a train leave RI to arrive
at Penn Station at 1:50?  Just looked at my watch and am pretty sure it
would be by now -- that she's already on the train.  Is Alan reading?
She may have a cellphone that he can call.  But I'm not worried since I
know where she's staying and can leave a message there for her.  Pickwick
Arms.  The old list hotel.  I don't trust message-takers totally, of
course.  Would feel better if somebody could actually hear her voice
on a phone.

Still wish I hadn't given that bearded man my cookie.

That's right, 'getic.  But I picked it over Cold Mountain, which I guess
was a mistake, but I just don't ever want to see another movie with guys
in Civil War uniforms and (presumably) regional accents.

I called Terry's hotel and found out that someone (prolly Natalie) had
already left a message of change in plans, re: The Mermaid.

Ter's train was 25 minutes late leaving West Kingston.

>What do monks and retreatants dine on at Christmas?

By happy accident (a Christmas Day conversation with the Chaplain, Fr.
Matthew Kelty), I know what monks dined on on on Christmas Day! The monks
had fried seafood of some sort - not shrimp, he thought, but something
similar - steamed asparagus, salad - and Key Lime Pie. Retreatants were
served sliced turkey with gravy, twice-baked potatoes (I wonder if the
monks had those also, and Fr. Matthew forgot to mention them), steamed
asparagus, salad (with imitation crabmeat in it), and Key Lime Pie!

The retreatants' diet was heavily vegetarian otherwise - more so than
usual - because it was Advent, I assume.

Fr. Matthew is in his late 80s - and he forgets details.

Also, he was the one who decorated the tree until this year - he had
decided that he should no longer do that, which is why I got to do it.

He is everybody's favorite monk. See him at:

http://monks.org/homilies.html

(He once served in Papua New Guinea. He started life in South Boston.)

Investigators Trace Diseased Cow to Canada 
(AP) - The Holstein infected with mad cow disease in Washington state was imported into the United States from Canada about two years ago, federal investigators tentatively concluded Saturday. Dr. Ron DeHaven, chief veterinarian for the Agriculture Department, said Canadian officials have provided records that indicate the animal was one of a herd of 74 cattle that were shipped from Alberta, Canada, into this country in 2001 at Eastport, Idaho.

        96 2nd Avenue or 96th and 2nd?  Will surely figure this out.

        Arms.  I'm at Wellington.  Cell phone works, but I don't know its

        Will cc this to the list in case it connects there better -- I know

Me too. Looking forward to seeing everyone.

Dudes will not be joining us; they got their TMBG tix and are looking forward to a Dudely evening _sans_ maternal influence.

See you in a couple hours,
Janet
