I cannot answer at once, but will try to find out chapter and verse for
you. We booksellers all have been advised of this problem, and of course
there has been at least one lawsuit over it (cf. Tattered Cover

Thanks, If you have a cite for the case, give me that also, please. And I

Perhaps this: "No person shall disclose to any other person (other than
those persons necessary to produce the tangible things under this section)
that the Federal Bureau of Investigation has sought or obtained tangible

The ABFFE believes that you have the right to talk to an attorney in this
situation, but also cautions, "If the agents are unwilling to permit you to
contact your attorney, you should cooperate with them."
<http://www.abffe.org/fisa_letter.html>

The ALA says, "libraries can ask for permission to consult legal counsel
(according to ALA). Permission may or may not be granted. Warrants cannot
be stalled." <http://www.kcoyle.net/stbarb.html>

Another problem with the Patriot Act is that it allows a FISA end run
around the Fourth Amendment: "Section 218 ... permits the FBI to conduct a
secret search or to secretly record telephone conversations for the purpose
of investigating crime even though the FBI does not have probable cause of
crime." (ACLU)

The TATTERED COVER, INC. case has a complex legal history. On April 8,
2002, the Colorado S. Ct. decided (in the words of the syllabus):

>>>SYLLABUS: This case involves an attempt by law enforcement officials
to use a search warrant to gain access to the book-buying records of a
suspected criminal. The petitioner, an innocent, third-party bookseller,
asserts its own and its customers' First Amendment and Article II,
Section 10 rights.

The Supreme Court recognizes that both the United States and Colorado
Constitutions protect the rights of the general public to purchase books
anonymously, without governmental interference. As such, any law
enforcement attempt to use a search warrant to discover which books that
a customer has purchased from a bookstore implicates fundamental rights.

The Supreme Court holds that the Colorado Constitution requires law
enforcement officials to show a need for the specific customer  [**2]
purchase record sought that is sufficiently compelling to outweigh the
harm likely caused to constitutional interests by execution of the
search. The search warrant will issue only if this test, which is to be
applied at a pre-seizure adversarial hearing, is met.

Applying this balancing test, the Supreme Court concludes that the law
enforcement need for the book purchase record in this case was not
sufficiently compelling to outweigh the harm that would likely follow from
execution of the search warrant, in part  because law enforcement
officials sought the purchase record for reasons related to the contents
of the books that the suspect may have purchased.<<<


But on April 29, 2002, after revising the opinion, the Court issued
a final and unpublished opinion. (That usually means it cannot serve as
precedent.)

I wonder if someone has interpreted some of the language of the Act to
mean that bit about consulting an attorney. As you have described it, it
sounds unconstitutional, of course.

It is actually part of FISA--Foreign Intelligence Security Act, which
was incorporated into the Patriot Act, apparently. There is an article
about it here:

http://news.bookweb.org/freeexpression/679.html

I don't have time to search to see the actual Act. But this will give
you the gist of it.

Furthermore, the Administration has made no secret of its hope that the
judiciary will accede to its broad reading of the USA PATRIOT Act just as
pliantly as Congress acceded to its broad legislative agenda.  In a letter
sent to key Senators while Congress was considering this legislation,
Assistant Attorney General Daniel J. Bryant, of DOJ's Office of Legislative
Affairs, openly advocated for a suspension of the Fourth Amendment's
warrant requirement in the government's investigation of foreign national
security threats. The Bryant letter brazenly declares:

As Commander-in-Chief, the President must be able to use whatever means
necessary to prevent attacks upon the United States; this power, by
implication, includes the authority to collect information necessary to its
effective exercise. . . The government's interest has changed from merely
conducting foreign intelligence surveillance to counter intelligence
operations by other nations, to one of preventing terrorist attacks against
American citizens and property within the continental United States itself.
The courts have observed that even the use of deadly force is reasonable
under the Fourth Amendment if used in self-defense or to protect others. .
. Here, for Fourth Amendment purposes, the right to self-defense is not
that of an individual, but that of the nation and its citizens. . . If the
government's heightened interest in self-defense justifies the use of
deadly force, then it certainly would also justify warrantless searches.

One solution might be to have your attorney keep the records. Then you
would HAVE to consult your attorney in order to comply.

My search for an appropriate pilates class was sidelined during my
preparation for surgery, and it will stay on the sidelines for several
more weeks. Meanwhile, I have continued my quest for a good class in a
reasonably convenient location. When I went to my first post-surgery PT
session on Thursday, I learned inadvertently that HealthSouth (connected
to the Knoxville Orthopedic Clinic, who take care of all my bone
problems) will begin classes in January. I think that will turn out to be
my best choice - I will get more info next week.

I am READY! Within 24 hours of surgery, I wanted to swim, to hike, to
ride ...

PTs always know about Pilates--that's how I got into it.

Having an attorney to do this would impose an unreasonable financial
burden on a small business, especially on an individual such me.

Not necessarily, Many small retailers have attorneys to whom they
pay a nominal sum on an ongoing basis just to take care of things
like this. Well, not like <this> - but routine admin matters.

    Bullshit.  I thought the defeat of the Aliens & Seditions Act solved this
once and for all, but apparently I was wrong.
    If this ain't your cup of Earl Grey its time to reread the first ten
amendments to the Constitution and then then find yourself a nice
NRA-afilliated club and ask questions.

Have you inquired?

I am certain that the law as interpreted by those advising you will be
determined to be unconstitutional. Still, you have a burden now - and I am

Not all your buiness records. Just customer identification records. I am
not a retailer, so I don't know, of couese, if that is realistic - but I
know some lawyers who would love to do such work - almost as a public
service. It might be worth a conversation with a local bar ass'n rep.

I will risk not being called upon to provide evidence to Ashcroft. Most
of my books are pretty ordinary--I mean, no "how to build a bomb." I do
have some incendiary ones re: politics, but not many.

I am going to be like Barbara Fritchie. Instead of hiring an attorney, I
am going to have my grey hair flowing while I wave my flag on the front
porch. "Shoot if you must, this old grey head, but spare this country's
flag [and all that it used to stand for]." And they can take me down if
they wish. I will uphold the honor of my ancestors who fought in the
first Revolution in this country.

To have your attorney keep all your business records?!

I'm not a bookseller, but I agree with Alyce that it'd be
prohibitively expensive; I can't see any way it wouldn't be.

    No one could meet Alec and not like him.  What's not to like?  He's a
mensch.
    (I still remember how we were having such a good time at Goatroast after
breakfast that we forgot he had a plane to catch and I told him not to worry,
he could always stay in Starkeville and and be the Town Jew.)  8-)

For bigger businesses, I can see that this makes sense (I'd think The
Tattered Cover was a bigger business, but I guess I'm basin that on
the fact that they are so well known), but I can't imagine it making
sense for smaller businesses.

I'm a real slug and  like nothing more than doing nothing on the weekends.
Except this time of year. The disappearence of humidity, nip in the air, the
foliage all motivate me to be a little less lazy than usual. (this doesn't
last long.
usually until Thanksgiving.) So far today I went to a 2 hr. cardio and
strength/torso training class at the gym, came home and made kickass
baba gannouj and spiced nuts to bring to a party tonight, cleaned the
kitchen, chatted with my next-door neighbor, put the finishing
touches on my costume, read 1/3 of -Atonement- whew, can't believe
I got so much done. It won't happen again anytime soon. At the risk
of annoying Alec, I had to report this.

Patriot Act causes libraries to review records

http://www.bayarea.com/mld/cctimes/news/local/4327549.htm

Oct. 20, 2002
By Dana Hull
SAN JOSE MERCURY NEWS

Attached to each staff phone in the Berkeley Public Library is a dark
pink
laminated card advising employees on how to handle subpoenas.

"If a person comes to you to serve a subpoena on the library, say that
you
are not in a position to act on it," the card reads. "Do not attempt to
give
them the information they are looking for."

Librarians in Berkeley and across the country are increasingly concerned
that federal agents will use the USA Patriot Act -- an anti-terrorism
bill
signed nearly a year ago -- to demand patron circulation records and
Internet logs.

On Thursday, the House Judiciary Committee released the Justice
Department's
answers to a series of questions about the Patriot Act, including how
many
times federal investigators have obtained records from public libraries
and
bookstores. But the Justice Department declined to provide many details,
saying the information is classified.

FBI agents seized two computers from a Delray Beach, Fla., library
because
some of the Sept. 11 hijackers are believed to have used public
computers to
communicate.

"I believe in privacy, but if we know that someone has committed a
crime,
we're not going to sit by and not say anything," said Kathleen Hensman,
a
reference librarian who remembers talking to the hijackers in the summer
of
2001. "I would do it again, Patriot Act or not."

In California, more than a dozen librarians say they are worried that
the
FBI's expanded surveillance powers will have a chilling effect on how
people
perceive and use the library, where anonymity is rigorously defended.

"We've discussed the Patriot Act in detail," said Karen Rollin Duffy,
the
city librarian in Santa Clara. "Our stance has always been that we want
to
protect patron privacy. But we are reviewing our practices. What records
do
we keep, and are we keeping them for too long?"

Justice Department officials say librarians are overreacting. But some
libraries and bookstores are now thinking twice about records that they
once
kept as a matter of course. At Bell's Books in Palo Alto, information
about
the Patriot Act was posted at the store's cash register.

"This is not a situation where the FBI can walk into a library and say
'Give
us all your records,'" said Mark Corallo, a department spokesman. "It
can
only be used if the person is under investigation for possibly being
linked
to terrorism, and the FBI has to go to great lengths to get a warrant
from a
judge."

Some Bay Area libraries have conducted "privacy audits" of their
computer
systems and files. Others keep fewer records today than before the
Patriot
Act was passed, and a few make sure to erase the caches on hard drives
or
regularly shred computer use sign-up sheets.

"Many of us are concerned about this," said Linda Wood, director of the
Alameda County Public Library. "What people read and view from library
collections has always been confidential. We want people to feel secure
that
Big Brother is not watching over them."

Congress passed the USA Patriot Act in October 2001, shortly after the
Sept.
11 attacks. Section 215 allows federal agents to get a search warrant to
examine certain "business records" as part of terrorism investigations,
and
that can include records from public libraries and bookstores.

FBI agents can obtain a warrant from a judge for library or bookstore
records of anyone thought to be involved in a terrorist plot. Once
contacted, librarians are forbidden to discuss the investigation, which
has
made it impossible to determine how widely Section 215 has been used in
California.

Andrew Black, a spokesman for the FBI's San Francisco office, said he
was
not aware of any Bay Area libraries that have been asked to turn over
records.

"It's a very rare circumstance where this is used, and there are
multiple
levels of review," said Black.

In December, the University of Illinois surveyed 1,020 libraries across
the
country. Eighty-five libraries, many of them near urban areas, said that
they had been asked by law enforcement officials for information about
patrons related to Sept. 11. The anonymous survey methods made it
impossible
to tell which libraries were contacted.

The Berkeley Public Library has already been contacted by the
government.

Immediately after Sept. 11, the library received a call from the Air
Force
warning that someone apparently used a library computer to hack into the
Travis Air Force Base in Fairfield, according to Jackie Griffin, the
library
director.

"We were pressed very hard to say who had used the computer, but I told
them
that California law says that those records are private and I can't give
them out without a subpoena," Griffin said. "But this was all before the
Patriot Act. We would have been in a whole different world if the
Patriot
Act had been in place."

A number of Bay Area libraries say they only keep a written log of
computer
usage when there is a waiting list for computers with Internet access.
But
those logs are usually shredded at the end of the day or week.

"We're watching cautiously," said Susan Fuller, director of the Santa
Clara
County Library. "California has strong privacy laws that protect patron
information, but the Patriot Act could override state law. We take
seriously
our role as a neutral information provider without the government
looking
over our shoulder."

NEW YORK (Reuters) - [snip]

"The more significant the text in the cannon of a particular writer,
as a function of its place in the narrative of contemporary
literature, the more powerful the response of the market," said Glenn
Horowitz, a New York dealer who bought the "Ulysses" copy last week
on behalf of a client.

The shortening days and the rain have turned me into a literal couch
potato: I felt exhausted just reading this.

I'm trying to decide whether it's too soon to turn on the heat. It's
67 inside, but my hands and feet are cold.

Oh, goody.  We are doing diary entries.

Saturday, October 26.  It's been chilly and rainy most of the day
here.  But before the rain started, Clyde and I did manage to put the
kayaks away for the season.  We took them out of the garage, laid them on
the grass near the fence to the left of the driveway, covered them with a
tarp, roped the tarp down against the winter winds, and said farewell to
paddling for the year.  We only went out one time all summer.  I also
stored away the furniture from the back deck, took down the umbrella,
brought in the new Don Quixote "focal point", and cleaned up the basement
and garage so that we can bring the car in when the weather turns nasty.

After that Clyde drove down for the newspapers and I made some white
chocolate/raspberry scones from a mix that we bought at the King Arthur
baking store in Vermont.  They were quite yummy.  I only used 1/4 of the
mix so we will be able to do this three more times.

The guy who is going to fix our deck came by and we chatted.  One wonders
if this job will be finished before snow or at least before wordslers
descend on us.  He promises "soon".  After that Clyde watched football and
I knitted and watched soaps.  Clyde-made pizza for dinner tonight.

Nothing major: Lidia's Italian-American Kitchen. Her recipes are
consider IP, though--she only sells them, which is frustrating.

She has made me decide to make soup, though. Jeeze. Soup, lasagna--you
know it's winter.

Sorry, if I was unclear, Heide is done her treatment. Her healing is ongoing

I saved the message and I might respond to parts of it over a period of
time. I need to digest it. I will say that,  both of us have suffered in
life and I respect greatly that suffering. I will make an effort not to

My Saturday:

Woke up at 8:10. Let Spike out, then in. Fed Spike. Had coffee. Instant.
Too much trouble to make it in the coffeemaker. Tended to e-mail. Took
garbage to transfer station and mailed a bunch of paid bills. Tended to
e-mail. Drank and EnsurePlus. Rested and watched the Anti-War Rally on
C-SPAN for awhile. Tended to e-mail. Did some Cresap Society
"housekeeping"--updating addresses, noting births, marriages, etc.
Tended to e-mail. Tried to let Spike out a few times, but it was cold
and raining and he wouldn't go out. He has the greatest bladder and
bowel capacity of any living creature. Riley did not show up. Fed birds.
Made a pot of Lipton's Creamy Garlic Shells, and threw in some green
beans. A envelope is two servings. Tried to eat the whole thing, but
only made it through about 1-3/4 servings. Still, with butter and milk,
it should have been about 300 calories. Now I am going to lie abed and
watch Capital Gang, followed by a movie, if I don't fall asleep first.

Th-th-th-th-that's all, f-folks!

The <season>, for all intents and purposes is over.  That we have not
completely expended our ration of fall color notwithstanding, the village
is shutting down.  Some shops are closed; their signs offering variations
on the "Thanks a lot, see you in the spring" theme.  Others are closed with
assurances that they will open for Pajama Day---a happening that Bonnie has
described in other years.  Jekyll & Hyde, which sells everything from
T-shirts to Twilley hats to binoculars to the kinds of knives that only
true bubbas would buy, is in about its third week of its annual 50% off
sale.  The fellow who owns/runs it (known locally as "The Chief') is noted
for his ability to sniff out the presence of a piece of 2-1/8 x 3-3/8" (54
x 85 mm) plastic at several miles; he is still open and who knows? he may
take another run at it next weekend.  Parking spaces are now available at
any time of the day on Main and Cottage Streets.  The few tourists still
around are now able to stand in the middle of Main St. and take photos of
the street with the waters of the harbor in the background without the
danger of becoming the hood ornament of a Mercedes SUV.

Our friends at the Primrose (Bryan and Pamela) closed last Monday.  Their
closing was labelled "Mimosa Monday" because as soon as the last guest was
bid farewell (after yielding the keys), Pam and Bryan were going to break
out the mimosas and celebrate.  Several people were invited to join them in
the celebration.  Unfortunately, we were on our way to Vermont then, but
perhaps next year.  They have had company since---old friends up to help
them celebrate surviving yet another year.  When things settle down a bit
more, we will get together for dinner at our place or theirs.

The year-round residents (including us) are still trying to piece together
which restaurants are going to stay open through the winter.  Havana will
not---a major kitchen renovation will begin in mid-November.  But there
still is hope.  Mache Bistro will be open although Maureen isn't sure of
the schedule yet, and one of the Italian restaurants (Anthony's) is opening
a "Little Anthony's" which probably will be a decided improvement on what
occupies the building now.  There is hope.

We now are enjoying several hours (with some yet to come) of
rain---sweeping up the coast under reasonably brisk breezes.  It is
sufficiently nasty outside that I decided to forego the expedition to the
herb patch for fresh oregano; the pizza tonight will make do with dried
stuff (fresh sage and rosemary may make up for it).

As Bonnie noted earlier, we mummified the kayaks and removed the carriers
from the car-roof.  I had held out hopes of perhaps one nice late-autumn
paddle somewhere in this vicinity, but the pattern of the weather is now
clear.  If we do have a day or so of very nice weather, we will spend it
hiking rather than paddling.  Tonight the far-northern interior of Maine
may receive its first accumulation of snow this winter.  If the trend
continues, we may see snow here while the oaks and more recalcitrant maples
are still colored.  Hey!  Photo op!

Time to go build a pizza.

I began the day by eating a bowl of
the granola that I prepared yesterday,
a supply to last for some time . . .
oats, bran, wheat germ, seeds, nuts,
dates, raisins, dried apricots, etc.
with a bit of molasses and honey, slowly
processed in the oven.

I was merrily (?) cleaning bathrooms and
kitchen floor, etc., when Gene brought
home our little motor home which is
used mostly for fishing and hunting
trips, and announced we were going to
clean it and prepare it for winter.  So
we worked in there (in the driveway)
all afternoon, and because I am a
perfectionist we didn't get finished . . .
stove knobs and refrig interior and
shower and bedding, etc. etc.  So
tomorrow we go at it again.

When we bought the motor home
several years ago,  I  thought that
maybe I would enjoy  weekends at
a lake or some scenic spot, with a
stack of books, some easy snack
foods, and a camera. But I just never
did it.  We are thinking of selling it.
Maybe I should try an outing first,
on my terms.

Then we came in and sat down, tired
from our efforts, and had a couple of
beers.  Now Gene is watching the
Nebraska game and I am about to put
a steak on the grill, saute some fresh
mushrooms, toss a salad, and
nuke 2 potatoes.  Things could be
worse.

I'm jealous.  I'm spending my weekend putting together unit
plans.  I'd like to do something other than school -- even
clean out a camper or garage.

Yeah, ain't it great?  I like to make soups.  Last night I added some
garlic, cranberry beans, tomatoes, andouille sausage, carrots, and celery
to my meat stock.  We had it with fresh bread.   Lasagna is Bonnie's
area--I just grate the cheese and gather the herbs.

No. Competent, middle-of-the-road. A starting place.

I made 3 pans of it earlier this week--one for me, one for Ligniere,
and one for a friend of his. This friend of his eats really badly, but
for some reason he likes my lasagna, so I made him some.

Are you suggesting that we not take everything you say as your real
thoughts, necessarily, that you have more than one persona?

I think that's what you mean by the last question.  That people are
treating you as simpler than you are?

No.  Not that.  Although we are each
a slightly different person at different times.
Furthermore, people see others through
eyes that are full of their own programming
anyway.  That's why a person is seen a little
differently by each person he meets IMO.
So the different persona comes about
because of the bias of the one who is
assessing him.

Some people do not see me as I think
I'm being seen on this list.  It is, in fact,
good for a few laughs.

So, what's new?

Subject: USA PATRIOT Act
Mime-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii"; format=flowed
Sender: owner-words-l@LISTSERV.UGA.EDU

The "Uniting and Strengthening America by Providing Appropriate Tools
Required To Intercept and Obstruct Terrorism" (USA PATRIOT) Act of 2001 was
signed into law by President (as adjudicated) Bush one year ago today.

The law has its good and bad provisions, and it also has some scary parts
which nullify parts of the Bill of Rights.  Worse, where it permits scary
stuff to happen, it gags the victim, with the side effect of preventing the
public from hearing about abuses.

The PATRIOT Act is worth knowing more about.  The American Civil Liberties
Union, the Electronic Privacy Information Center, and the American
Booksellers Foundation for Free Expression filed a Freedom of Information
Act request in August 2002 seeking information about the implementation of
the Act; that's turned into a lawsuit this week.

No, but I've heard about it--I heard the author interviewed on the

I've read a lot of good reviews also but the topic of the book, a young
girl writing to her parents from heaven after her rape and murder, sounds
pretty bizarre.  And more than a bit of a downer.

Well, check it out on Amazon; there's 42 pages of excerpt. It doesn't
sound like it's a downer, but I'm staying away from anything that
might be, these days.

No, but I know someone who is reading
it and she couldn't wait to get her hands
on it, was really looking forward to it,
for what reason I do not know.

Subject: Hell Day
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" ; format="flowed"
Sender: owner-words-l@LISTSERV.UGA.EDU

- Was awakened at 7A by the cat crying and complaining. I assumed it
was another urinary blockage and drove to the vet, feeling pretty
sure that I wouldn't be returning with the cat -- I won't put him
through another round of catheterization and hospitalization. Was
entirely prepared to spend the next 20 minutes letting him die in my
arms. Turns out it was gas pains. Yogurt, antibiotics (for the
urinary infection that's still bothering him) and anti-nausea meds,
and we were back home again.

- Fell asleep for a while -- I'd been up until 2a last night. Woke up
shortly after 1. Unfortunately, I was supposed to be in Oakland at 1
to pick up the keys to my new place. Leapt into the car, booked
across the Bay Bridge and arrived at two. My landperson hadn't been
able to stay, but she left me a note telling me where she'd hidden
the keys. Retrieved the keys, did some prowling around the place and
brainstorming with Ben about what should go where. On the way out of
the parking lot, backed into another car. No damage to my beast and
all I could see on theirs was a small scratch on the corner of the
fender, but I left a note anyway. (Haven't heard anything back yet.)

- Stopped for gas at a station near the house. The gas was really
cheap, but the station was funky enough that you couldn't use a
credit card in the pump -- you had to give it to a cashier.

- Took off to the office to pick up some cash. On the way, got a cell
phone call from the landperson. A second shoe had dropped -- I'd
borrowed the dough from my dad for the deposit on the place,
deposited it in my bank account, and written the check to the
landperson. Meanwhile, however, fucking Wells Fargo decided to put a
hold on my deposit so my check to her bounced and the checks she'd
written to *her* landpersons bounced. I apologized profusely
(although it wasn't technically my fault), and drove directly over to
her apartment to repay her for the fees it had cost her.

- Egged on by Ben, who pointed out that I'd screwed up almost every
single thing I'd done so far that day and that coffee was at this
point a need, not a want, we ran into a deli and got a couple of
sandwiches and a coffee for me and a coke for him. I promptly spilled
most of the contents of the sandwich, which seemed to be primarily
mustard, down the front of my gray velour shirt.

- Stopped at Wells Fargo to get some more cash and discovered that
I'd left my ATM card back at the gas station. Went inside to write
and cash a check.

- Drove to Petaluma -- at this point an hour later than I'd told the
guy I was going to be there -- to pick up a bed I was buying for Jay.
(When we split, we agreed that I'd buy back his half of the nice
platform bed we bought last year. I offered to put the money toward a
comparable, smaller bed for him. After some hunting, I found one on
Craigslist at a fair price and bought it.) It took the seller, Ben
and me about an hour and considerable creativity to disassemble the
damn thing and stuff it into the back of the van; even then, Ben had
to ride practically doubled up in the passenger seat, and the back
door was tied down with twine. Now I have to figure out where to
store it until Friday when Jay moves into his new place, and bribe
Ben and his friend Derek to unload it and put it there.

Oh, yes -- and when I went to pay the guy for the bed, I discovered I
had $25 too little cash -- I'd forgotten to allow for paying back the
landperson when I decided how large a check to write at the bank. I
borrowed $10 from Ben and wrote a check for the remaining $15. Very
embarrassing.

- At this point, my back felt like it had been twisted like a
telephone cord. I called and cancelled my reservation for the party
I'd intended to attend tonight. Also called both of the people I'd
had dates to play with to let them know I wouldn't be there.

- We headed back to Oakland -- almost an hour out of the way, in
dense traffic, with exhaust coming into the car through the open back
gate -- to reacquire my ATM card. We got there to find that the
station was closed -- at 7:30 on a Saturday night!

- Finally home at 8:30 PM. Two basic errands -- pick up the keys and
buy the bed -- had taken seven and a half hours. I'm going to drug
myself, eat a large bowl of ice cream, and lie in bed dozing and
watching TV all night.

Ack.

I am very much looking forward to having the kind of life where I'm

Gawd, nothing so facy. I went as a scarecrow.
Everybody else had on ho-hum costumes (wizard,
grim reaper etc.) so it worked out ok.

The friend who hosted the party lives on a farm
in horse country, Maryland, out in the middle of
nowhere. There was a huge bonfire outside and
we sat around and watched the stars for a while.
It was nice. I met this English guy who's a big fan
of the Pittsburgh Steelers - I found  that a tad weird.

so long, DST,

One of the benefits of not being in academia anymore is
getting my weekends back. I'd forgotten what that was
like - not having to work during the weekend.

Well, heat and humidity do that to me, too, especially at first. I did
end up turning the heat on, just to get the chill off the house.

Next year, when I'm not making it all up from scratch.  I
have to do so much planning this weekend because I have
parent-teacher conferences next week and won't have time at
night.  But I have Friday off!

Yeah, that's the sucky thing about the job.  In a few years
it should be better, though.  And summers off!  I have it
better than my sister and brother, who have to juggle
working holidays -- I'll never have to connive to get
Christmas off.

My soups now don't take all that long but you're right, making the stock is

FROM Mrs IYAYI OSAZ
Son IYAYI SAMUEL JR
SOUTH AFRICA




I am writting to seek for your noble and professional
assistance in investing fund my late husband died and
left behind. By introduction,Iam Mrs IYAYI OSAZ a
South African and wife of late Chief IYAYI SAMUEL.

Chife IYAYI SAMUEL my late husband was a well known
Cocoa dealer in the whole west Africa before he died.
After his return business trip from Abidjan-Cote
d?Ivoire he was attacked by unknown assassins in his
house where he was rushed to the hospital and later
died after some days. (May his soul rest in peace)
Before he died in the hospital he disclosed to me
about the sum of TWENTY TWO million
US dollars
($22.,000.000) he deposited in a private security /
safe deposit company in HOLLAND.
According to my late husband he deposited the money in
a trunk box and decleared it as family treasure for
security reason, he instructed me to claim the money
and invest it overseas with a trustworthy
person/company for our future life. This is my reason
for contacting you to know if you can render me a good
assistance in which the money will be transfer to your
bank account for a lucrative investments you will
advice in your country or somewhere you will
introduce. Please Iam appealing to you to assist me
hence I have it in mind to establish a rewarding
relationship with you .
I cannot put this money in to my account here and because of the fast that our customs demands here that i mourn my LATE husband for NINE MONTHS which by then i do not know what can happen to the money and the dumurrage charge will be too much thus we need your assistance urgently
Note that immediately the money
is been transferred to your CARE you will then make
arrangement for MY only SON coming over to meet you for the
investment. Please help a widow woman like me as you
will never have any thing to regret.

Looking forward to receive your positive response.

Thanks and God bless you

Mrs IYAYI OSAZ.
Son IYAYI SAMUEL JR.

I don't think there was anything in your post to indicate that that was what
you were posting. Except the quotation marks, which were just confusing.

It sounds like how a person with a Quaalude habit might say my full name.
And it's a anagram of Rashmi.

Actually, the description of "Marie" does describe me better than "Mrashi"
does. Although I don't remember the details.

Here's what I wrote to Larry last December when someone gave him a creme
brulee kit:

It's very easy to undercook creme brulee.  I do it myself sometimes.  I
like it better when it turns out solid.  But I've had creme brulee in
restaurants where it was runny.  It definitely tastes good either way.

I made up my recipe by looking at a number of different ones years
ago.  Here it is:

Makes six:
3 cups heavy cream
6 egg yolks
6 Tablespoons sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla
Brown sugar for top

Heat heavy cream over medium heat just until bubbles form around
edge.  Combine egg yolks and sugar.  Beat at high speed.  At low speed, add
vanilla and hot cream.  Poor mixture into six custard cups.  (I've found
that wider, less deep custard cups work better.  I bought mine at an
antique store -- one of the old Jewel Tea patterns.)  Place custard cups in
a glass cake pan filled with hot water, so that the water comes halfway up
the sides of the cups.  (Be careful to not use something like a huge
roasting pan so that you are actually steaming the stuff instead of baking
it.  I did that once at someone else's house.  Mistake.)

Bake in 300 degree oven for an hour.  If they still seem rather liquidy
after an hour (just giggle the pan) bake for another 15 minutes.  Take out
of water bath, cool on counter, refrigerate for at least four hours,
overnight is better.

Before serving sprinkle a layer of brown sugar on top of each custard,
place in pan, and put under broiler, watching closely so that the sugar
carmelizes and doesn't break into flame.  Of course, one can do this with
one of those little blow torches, which I've often been tempted to
buy.  One can also put the custards in a ice cube bath while they under the
broiler.  The idea is for the custard to stay cold while the brown sugar
gets hard.

I don't agree. I think la Bork is pretty clear in a translucent kind of way.
You've got to read between the lines, but that's half the fun.

Ian McEwan or MacEwan or MacEwen Or McEwen.

I hate telling people about books, it feels like the ten thumbs on my
hands trying to speak.  So I clipped this from Amazon:

On the hottest day of the summer of 1935, thirteen-year-old Briony Tallis
sees her older sister Cecilia strip off her clothes and plunge into the
fountain in the garden of their country house. Watching Cecilia is their
housekeeper¹s son Robbie Turner, a childhood friend who, along with
Briony¹s sister, has recently graduated from Cambridge.
By the end of that day the lives of all three will have been changed
forever. Robbie and Cecilia will have crossed a boundary they had never
before dared to approach and will have become victims of the younger
girl¹s scheming imagination. And Briony will have committed a dreadful
crime, the guilt for which will color her entire life.

I'm a little surprised you don't use vanilla bean. One of the reasons I am
asking today is because I just bought some beans yesterday...

Also, do you prefer the shallow creme brulee cups -- like mini quiche pans,
or a deeper custard cup?

Thanks!

Sorry to disappoint.  I'm sure you can use them somehow instead of the
liquid vanilla.

Mine are somewhat deeper than the very shallow ones I've seen.  I think I
prefer deeper.  You get more!!

You are very welcome.  Where's my Moose Munch?

Bruce and I got up and took the drive over to Woodbury Commons so I could
get the theft-detectors removed from the shirts I bought two weeks ago. He'd
never been there and had no idea it was so close -- just across the Hudson
and south on the Palisades a bit -- 30 minutes door to door of glorious
foliage -- this was the peak weekend for sure -- I am so happy that we live
in such a beautiful place. At WC -- which is like a shopping amusement park
-- he was able to find a pair of new shoes, and we stocked up on some things
from the Harry & David and Williams Sonoma outlets -- food related items
mostly. We then followed through on our plan to stop in at a local pub for
lunch and to watch some of the Notre Dame-Florida State game. We sat at the
bar, and I had a cup of carrot-vegetable soup, and a grilled cheese with
bacon and tomato on rye. A perfect lunch. From there we went over to Circuit
City to look at car stereos -- my Hyundai didn't come with a CD player, so
that's what I'm getting for Christmas. We didn't buy, just looked. Back at
home, I had some projects -- primarily dealing with the mess which is/was my
closet. It is now in perfect order, summer clothes all away, remaining
articles sorted by type of garment. I am generally a slob about all of this,
and it took a while, and actually isn't quite done, but close. After some
time I decided to get things together for dinner. Have decided I will cook
every single thing in the Rao's cookbook because it is perfect simple old
fashioned Italian (Italian-American) food, so decided on a Penne with
Sausage and Cabbage dish. Needed some ingredients so drove toward Yorktown
for there is the greatest concentration of quality shopping over there. Went
to the Food Emporium, then to Taste of Italy (for fresh sausages -- a mix of
hot and sweet -- and Bronx bread), stopped by my favorite wine store where
an <event> was going on -- had a couple tastes from around the world (from
Spain to South Africa to British Columbia) as I shopped -- bought 10 bottles
of wine, all at 20% off. Dinner was quite delicious, nice and garlicky, the
cabbage adding good texture, the hot sausage slightly infusing the whole
dish, served it with a beet and asparagus vinaigrette starter, a very nice
Barbera d'Alba, and of course the Italian loaf I had procured. Later Bruce
and I settled in downstairs with a DVD -- "Scotland, PA" which is a modern
version of MacBeth. Amusing and silly film. Throughout all of this I
suffered with a lower back pain, so I popped a pain killer and slept on a
heating pad. I am now about 99% cured, so I ought to go tend to the leaves.

If he's about your age, he probably discovered American football during the
Terry Bradshaw years. At that time they were like the Dallas Cowboys became
just after. It's like my husband being a big Manchester United fan.

Well, now, that doesn't do ME any good.  Get your aching back up off the

No, you're right, there wasn't. It was exactly similar in form to the
other entries, and I seldom write If questions to myself. I clearly
overestimated my audience.

I just did my dead-cow thing and this time opened it up and examined it
before eating it.  A Wendy's ordinary hamburger includes mayonnaise, a
tiny bit of mustard, and a very tiny dab of ketchup.  I had to study it
carefully to make sure it was ketchup -- at first I thought it was just
ooze from the tomatoes.

Spencer did just fine alone while I was in Jackson.  My house is still
wall-to-wall bowls of food and water.  Guess I should start picking up
some of them.

I remember the plane thing as not being about forgetting but rather
being about confusion over who it was who was taking him to the
airport.  I can't remember now who I thought was doing it, but I
realized just in the nick of time that it was I.  I found him sitting
calmly in the hotel lobby -- and was never sure whether he knew how
close he had come to being stranded there.

The part about The Town Jew doesn't work, though.  I don't really know
how the percentages of various religions would turn out in a survey of
Starkville, but I'm using my lunch group as a microcosm right now and
have broken the regulars in it down to these rough numbers (the only
reason I know in most cases is that we sometimes talk about religion at
lunch and people tend to say what brand they are): Catholic 5, Jewish 4,
Episcopalian 3, Presbyterian (of the liberal variety, not of the
Baptisty variety) 3, Methodist 1, Mormon 1/2 (i.e., not really a regular
at the table), No Religion 3.  These numbers aren't precise.  I just ran
faces of regulars through my head quickly and labeled them.

Tell me about it. We've been through, in rough order: about six
different rounds of antibiotics, muscle relaxants and
anti-inflammatories, numerous tests, surgery to remove a small
flotilla of bladder stones, a subsequent blockage, two bacterial
infections, and special food that costs $12 for a small bag. All this
on a 14-year-old, insulin-dependent-diabetic cat. Not counting the
furniture I've had to replace, we've spent conservatively more than
$2000 so far.

I was all for putting him to sleep when we found out about the
bladder stones -- I saw no reason to put him through all that when
there was no guarantee that his quality of life would be adequate
afterwards -- but Jay prevailed. However, if he forms more stones or
blockages, I *won't* put him through it again -- he was in a lot of
pain, and he hates and fears the vet.

Perhaps Harry didn't think Vernon Jordan was a house slave.  I don't
think CP is either, I should add.  And I'm very, very glad he's hanging
around since, even though I don't think he could totally stop Rumsfield
et al, I think he was a major force in pulling Dubya ever so slightly
outside of the dead-center zone of the Wolves of War.

I had an idea this morning for a product I think would sell: a tablet
or something of that nature that you could run down your disposal in
lieu of lemon rinds, to get rid of bad smells and freshen the air in
the kitchen. (Yes, I've been inspired: Ben has a heavy hand with
Trader Joe's minced garlic in the jar, and the smell hangs on
*forever*.)

If anybody decides to go with it, send me a few bucks out of your

There is such a product.  I have bought
it and did so several years ago.
It is a large tablet.

Outstanding lemon chicken and definitive puttanesca. I have Lidia's book

Here's a fun toy: <http://www.ericmyer.com/stereotypes.htm>.

There are twenty faces of various types; you pick the top of one and the
bottom of another to create a new face.  The effect is eerie, and works
better than you'd imagine.

Fast food chains make regional adjustments in the condiments they use on
their burgers, based on their market research. If Wendy's puts mayo on their
burgers in the south, that is proof of the south being mayo-drenched.  I
don't think Wendy's hamburgers come with mayo on default here. Just like
McD's burgers come with mustard in most places but not in New York.

This reminds me.  I asked the owner and a couple of his assistants at
Lemuria in Jackson yesterday whether they had suffered any problems
since the arrival of a nearby B&N six or eight years ago plus the
various other big chain stores in the vicinity.  They said no -- that at
least some of the independent bookstores were continuing to do well.

I find it fascinating to think that there are more maynonnaise-eaters in
the South than elsewhere.  Before this discussion I would have guessed
the opposite if asked to guess on such a matter.  The reason I would've
guessed opposite is that in the various food discussions here on Words-L
I've seen mayonnaise mentioned in what I would consider disgusting
contexts and have never seen anybody around here do.  I can't remember
what the contexts were now, though.  Wasn't one of them related to
cheese?  Do most of you not ever buy mayonnaise?  I have a problem with
whether to buy any since I do use it in tunafish salad.  But since
that's the only occasion I have to use it in normal life, the smallest
jar available lasts me five or six years.  Was it here or was it in my
ftf life that I found out several years ago that you really shouldn't
keep mayonnaise more than a year or so?  Since then I have thrown it
away when I think a year has passed, though I am not convinced it
matters since I had not done that in the past.

Do y'all not put it in tunafish salad?  If not, do you ever use any at
all?  If so, what do you use it for?

Tuna salad is probably my number 1 use of mayo. Today I used it in the
chicken salad I made from the breast of the chicken that was used to make
stock (I remove the breast after an hour to make chicken salad). I also use
mayo periodically on a sandwich, primarily because I love it next to a ripe
tomato. Other than that I don't use it too much. But we do eat tuna salad
fairly often so I buy one or two big jars a year.

I do not make <tunafish salad>. I occasinally make tuna salad. I usually
have mayo on hand, and I use about 1 pt. a year. Occasionally a friend
wants mayo on a sandwich. Once in a great while, I put mayo on a wedge of
iceberg lettuce, which I continue to eat occasionally, ususlly in wedge
form. (Never by the handful, though.)

My quick research on hamburgers and mayonnaise showed only a Yankee
association -- but the research was not thorough enough to be considered
The Final Word.  I first landed on this site:
http://www.geocities.com/mcburgers_com/american_burgers.html
It gave the ingredients for burgers associated with twenty-six U.S.
cities.  The only two that included mayonnaise were New York and
Washington (the "New York Deli Burger" and the "Washington Capitol
Burger" to be specific).

Then I landed on this menu from a burger place in San Francisco:
http://www.sfnorthbeach.com/mos.html
It says "All burgers include lettuce, tomato, onion, house mayonnaise,
pickle on request only."

No more time for research on the matter.  But I really don't think that
mayonnaise is a Southern <thing> -- as in I don't think Southerners are
into mayonnaise any more than Yankees are.  I'm sure it does show up in
odd places, though, like I was thinking about the wonderful deviled eggs
I had at the party in Jackson last night -- they were stuffed with
bacon, egg, and creamed spinach -- would mayonnaise be involved in the
creaming of spinach?  I dunno.  There was certainly no discernible
mayonnaise taste, but it might have been hidden in them somehow.

There usually is mayo in devilled eggs, but not in creamed spinach. In this
case, maybe they used frozen creamed spinach and the cream negated the need
for mayo, which is used in devilled eggs for moisture.

Well, I'm glad it exists -- I'll look for it. But I'm sorry none of

Dunno.  The food was done by the same great caterers this person
apparently always uses for parties.  They're fun to talk to in addition
to making wonderful food.  I did ask the ingredients of the eggs and was
told egg, bacon, creamed spinach.  I didn't ask the details of the
creaming, knowing that I was not likely to do something like that
myself.

Meanwhile, I did the last hamburger research I'm planning on doing --
the last because I'm getting disgusted thinking about dead cow,
especially with some still inside my digestive system.  I did find out,
though, that Wendy's hamburgers don't vary regionally.  The ingredients
are given on their web site:

http://www.wendys.com/w-3-1.shtml

The one I always get is the "classic single":
**********
1/4 lb.* Patty
Mayonnaise
Ketchup
Mustard
Dill Pickles
Onion
Tomato
Lettuce
Sandwich Bun

I'm not going to enter anyone.  If some one wants to be on my birthday
list, he/she can put him/herself there.

I never buy mayonnaise.  I like it well enough, but not
enough to have it around the house.  In any case, I don't
think of the southern tradition of mayo being so much
smeared on stuff as being a part of a lot of dishes, like
deviled eggs, tuna salad, chicken salad, macaroni salad,
etc.  The stuff certainly shows up as part of a lot of the
recipes in my Southern Cooking cookbook.

Do non-Southerners use something else in tuna/chicken salad, or do they
just not <dampen> it?  I can't imagine putting mayonnaise in macaroni
salad.  I don't use any <moisturizer> on that.  Since I never make
chicken salad, tunafish salad is left as the only thing I use mayonnaise
for.  (I also don't make deviled eggs, but I hadn't thought of
mayonnaise as part of the deal -- I would've just dug out the boiled
yoke, spiced it up with pepper and stuff, and poked it back into the
white cups.)  I tend in general not to doctor food up all that much.  We
were talking about slaw recently.  To me the best slaw is simply finely
grated cabbage mixed with finely grated carrot.  I realize that lots of
people like grated onion in it also, but I don't.  My point, though, is
that I don't see any reason to muck up perfectly good slaw by adding
mayonnaise to it.

        No, just don't eat that sort of thing very often compared to
southerners.  I found some hilarious web hits about how
southerners eat mayo, btw -- but my favorite was the
Mayonnaise Terrorist in Russia.  It seems Americans are
lightweights compared the Euros when it comes to eating
mayonnaise.

No, no need to worry. Bah Hahbuh sounds like the kind of
place where we won't need a tour guide. We should be able
to stay out of your way and find plenty to do/see.

I'm already looking forward to the food at the fest.
(Is Havana open over the 4th?) The views and hikes
rank number one, a little higher than the food.

Speaking of which, that's one big difference between Philly and

very few jewish people. It feels a little funny.

You have good taste and proper priorities.  Yes, Havana is open over the
4th.  Just about everything is open over the 4th.  Last year Mache Bistro
closed on the 4th itself.  But it was open again for my birthday
celebration on the 5th.

I knew that deviled eggs were considered Southern (though I had never
really thought about a mayonnaise association), but I didn't know that
tunafish salad and chicken sald were.  I think of them as women's food
more than men's food but hadn't thought of them as regional.  Chicken
salad is something I associate with <women of leisure> eating lunch
together.

And you're not sharing?  I'm interested in this topic because it reminds
me of how late in life it was that I discovered that "English peas" was
a Southern term.  The mayonnaise connection is something else that I'm
discovering late in life.  (Fwiw, I consider "mayo" a Yankee term.  I
know what it means but can't imagine ever using it myself and can't
remember having heard it often.  In fact, I'm not sure I've ever heard
it in real life.  When I think of it, I think of movies and of something
like a NYC accent saying it.

It's things like this that are appealing about teaching k-12 instead of
college.  In other ways there are disadvantages to k-12.  You have far
less flexibility in time when you're teaching -- like you could never
schedule something like a medical or dental appointment at some time
like 1 p.m.  But when there are breaks, like spring break, they're more
likely to be real breaks since you don't have the worry about the
publication stuff -- the guilt about going out of town for spring break
instead of working.  Ditto summers.

I'm sure that a university town is different from a non-university town
in many respects.  But Mississippi has always had a fairly large number
of Jewish families.  There have been articles and I think some whole
books on the subject of Jewish history in Mississippi, and there's a
museum on that topic somewhere in south Mississippi -- somewhere around
Natchez, I think.  What I've read about the history fits with my
personal memory of growing up in Mississippi:  that there was always
extreme assimilation.  I use "extreme" because there's the question of
whether that's good or bad (the old assimilation vs diversity question
-- there are obviously some plusses in assimilation, but there are the
minuses like a less strong sense of shared culture among the assimilated
groups).  Mississippi doesn't have a history of anti-Semitic attitudes
(except for that one brief period in the '60s when "New York Jews" were
said to be pouring into the state as "outside agitators").  Other than
that era (during most of which I wasn't in Mississippi), there has been
no particular thought re whether somebody was Jewish.  In my high school
we knew the religions of our friends and acquaintances but it was like
"John is Baptist, Sandra is Catholic, Natalie is Methodist, Ethel is
Jewish."  And that's all there was to it.

Why can't we all just get along?  Let's talk about our similarities instead

Nice of you to accept the Jews while you made the blacks go to an entirely
different school.

But taking Bethany's lead in thinking about what route to take after
retirement, it has occurred to me that I could go to Ole Miss and get a
degree in "Southern Studies."

Exactly.  It is not part of Mississippi tradition to consider Jews as
<different>.  Surely I reported here back however many years ago it was
the thing a native Mississippian who works in our library said one day.
I've forgotten where she's from -- some small town in the Delta, I
think.  And I have no memory of how this topic arose.  But she said with
very wide eyes (and she's not a youthful wide-eyer -- she's older than I
am), "Did y'all know that in some parts of the country there is
discrimination against Jews?"  She went on with something like, "I've
never heard of such a thing.  Blacks have been discriminated against in
this country, but Jews??"

Well, as noted, mine is on my front porch.  Often right against the
door.  It is rolled and rubberbanded, so I don't know, or care,
whether it is thrown, carried, or transported, as long as it is there.

They do here. Next time I go, I'll have to remember to ask them not to put
it on.

I like their chicken nuggets. And their salads aren't bad. Overall, if I
have to go to a burger joint, I think I like that one the best.

I didn't write the MSU Pres Office.  I wrote to the personal address of
an old friend.  I really don't know how many
secretaries/adminassts/whatever he has now since he is retired, although
I do realize that he's actively retired -- he's not just sitting around
couch-potatoing.  I do find your wondering funny somehow.  Even when
Jimmy was still Netscape CEO, I can guarantee you that our e-mail
correspondence was direct.  Then again, maybe he dictated the content to
a secretary.  Somehow I'm ROFL at that thought.

No, I don't think so.  If they have, I've overlooked the answer.

I would think that anybody who might be inclined to follow the advice to
buy some book or the other would.  Possibly somebody who never thinks of
buying a book wouldn't.

In the picture you posted (or rather told us the url for) it appears
that your front yard is a small, flat, untreed space.  In that case it
would be quite easy for the carrier to toss it to your front porch.
What I found mutant was not that your newspaper is tossed to your front
porch but your assumption that everybody who subscribes to a newspaper
has a small, treeless front yard.

I don't get FoodTV--good thing. Filleting living fish squicked me
bigtime when I first heard of it 30 years ago, but I'm inured.

However, someone recently shared with me that they do this to
horses--that, I've never seen nor heard about.

I am moving closer by the second to vegetarianism.  I'm pretty good at
distancing myself from thought of the animals when I consume animals,
except that sometimes I picture chickens on the hoof, so to speak, when
I look at a chicken leg -- and I think of dog legs etc.  But when I'm
closer to it, as in that time when lovejudith handed the bag of live
lobsters to me in the lobster shop, I really freeze.  Even though I told
her that I couldn't hold that bag and she carried it then, I found that
night that I couldn't eat even a bite of the lobster.

Illogical?  Sure.  I make no claim that it's not.  I will go to the
Wendy's drive-up window and get a dead-cow item and eat it.  I will buy
a chunk of dead fish at the grocery store and pop it into the toaster
oven and then eat it.  I will open a can of tunafish and put it into a
bowl with celery (and mayonnaise!) and churn it around and put it on a
piece of bread and eat it.  Etc.

I was amused my summer clerking for the Dep't of the Navy  (OGC) - in
Washington. There were 4 clerks from the south and 2 from New England. At
that time there was in Crystal City a marvelous downhome southern
restaurant that served things like fried chicken sandwiches (fried
chicken on white bread). We three from the south delighted in eating
such extremely southern lunches - while the New Englanders, who were
slightly shocked by what we ate, ate tuna sandwiches on white bread all
summer. I remember one saying that she would happily eat it for lunch
every day.

It is, kind of. And I do know that Really Fresh Fish tastes better.
But I don't know that I could stand to watch.

I don't understand your point.  I didn't say that anybody who might be
inclined to follow the advice to buy some book or the other would also
follow the advice to buy it from an independent bookseller.

But did those New Englanders allow mayonnaise as an ingredient in the
tunafish salad that constituted their sandwiches?  (Then again, maybe
Yankees put tunafish on bread without anything intervening when they
make tunafish sandwiches.  I do eat tunafish that way at times -- like I
open a can and eat the fish without turning it into a sandwich -- but no
bread is involved -- i.e., it isn't a tunafish sandwich.)  I must add,
however, that I've never heard of a fried-chicken sandwich.

It does kind of spook me sometimes when the fish in my creel thrashes around.

And he told me about going to see some friends of his and walking into
their garage--and discovering too late that they had painted the floor.

The best part is you could live in Oxford. When I was there for SECOL, I
was prepared to move there - I visited several lawyers to inquire whether
they thought I could make a living there. They said they thought I
could. There are several places I could live easily, at least for a while
- the one I am exploring now is Berkeley.

Another useful reply.  It's ok with me not to understand your point.  I
will not lie sleepness at night wondering why you think that buying
books at chains stores means you don't know they're chain stores.  I do
kind of wonder how somebody can masturbate other than alone, though.

I started to say that it's a southwest thing, but then I remembered that
you grew up in a northern place.  Right?  The only other thing I can
make of it is that you and Bethany are or were into a food item that
grosses me out.  Now what to make of that I'm not sure.  You and Bethany
share something <good>?  I'm mutant for finding the idea of mayonnaise
and iceberg lettuce repulsive?  I dunno.

Oxford is pretty and has some other good things about it, but I really
don't think it's the kind of place I want to live.  Maybe I'm letting
history interfere too much in my attitude.  I certainly don't think
long-ago history should taint a place.  But history in my living memory
bothers me.  I well remember the tear gas and the riots at Ole Miss.
And I also well remember what happened at what is known as "The People's
University."  As in all people.  That matters to me.  And even though
we're talking now about a good many years ago, I prefer being with The
People.

> - the one I am exploring now is Berkeley.

I wish I lived in Berkeley.

When I first came here, the last place I wanted to live was Berkeley - -
too much like Ann Arbor.

Now I want to live there, I don't mind that everybody is so fucking young
year after year in the majority.  Not at all.

Berkeley is cool.  We couldn't afford to live there so we kept going
further and further away until we found Pinole.  Albany would have been better.

When I used to visit my grandmother there, there was a sizable older
population in Berkeley. I guess they died off.

I though I would be off crutches by now, but I wil be on my single crutch
for a while longer - they ask that I use it most of the time until I am no
longer favoring my right leg at all. I will go to therapy 3 x this week
and next, then perhaps twice a week for a couple of weeks. And I have to
do exercises at home 2-3 times a day.

I skipped choir this morning - choir robes and crutches do not seem to me
to be a good mix. We are to rehearse with our small orchestra Wed. night
in prep. for the All Saints service on Sunday - I do plan to participate,
even if I have to abandon my crutch temporarily.

The crutch makes it unhandy to walk very far. I am trying to figure out
how to go to an 11:00 am funeral service in the morning while also meeting
other obligations. Parking is the issue. The funeral is for a
very prominent citizen/lawyer, and there will be no parking available
anywhere downtown near the Cathedral by 9:30, I suspect. I might just take
a cab - but I will need to have my vehicle after the funeral, so I don't
know if that will work ...

One of my colleagues still owns the house he lived in when he was a grad
student in Berkeley.  (I've never asked him how a grad student can
afford to buy a house.)  He's planning on retiring a few years from now,
and they (he and his wife) are going to live part of the time in
Berkeley and part of the time on some land they bought a couple of years
ago in New Mexico -- bought on a whim because they said that in driving
between here and California they passed through New Mexico and liked it.

So what's the point of my story?  I can't remember exactly, but I think
it's that these friends of mine like Berkeley.  I hate that they're
going to move away since that will mean no more Chiggerfests.

I don't find it hard to get appointments at 3:30 when most

or spring break, though).  I am expected to publish, though.

Aren't you eligible for a temporary handicapped placard? Though I
don't suppose you can get one by 11 tomorrow morning.

I had wondered whether that had spread to high schools as a real
requirement.  I know that high school teachers do publish, but I didn't
know how much of a requirement it had become.  From the selfish pov, as
in what would make your life easier as opposed to the good of the
students, I would say that going on and getting a PhD and teaching
college would be easier if the publication thing is going to rule
anyway.  But I do like that you are teaching hs because I think people
like you are super important there.

        Have it your way, Natalie.  I don't care that much about
mayonnaise to get into Yet Another Ersatz Civil War with
you.  I'm just reporting on a thing I've <heard> -- I
haven't written a thesis on the subject.  This Yankee won't
touch a disgusting tuna sandwich, with or without
mayonnaise, which just goes to show ya.

        No, they're gone from my history, now.  I'll be sure to say
"mayo" next time I see you.  I have no idea whether or not
it is a regionalism.  Could be.

        It isn't widespread -- WGHS is just like that.  I'm in a
department full of expensive degrees (the guy hired along
with me this year has his from Harvard) and a couple of
PhD's.  I think my pub creds are what got me hired.  But it
is NOTHING like I'd be expected to do at the university level.

My grandmother's lovely, wonderful, fabulous house has been turned
into a shitpile. The house of the woman who was a major factor in my
becoming an Asianist isn't much better, and I think Mrs. Dodge's house
is a crack house.

I have made sure not to zap anything.  (I normally zap stuff that I
think isn't essential to the thread because of cutting down on excess
crap).  But in this case I didn't want to risk zapping anything since my
boggled mind wasn't sure whether it would be ok.)

My way??  I was simply asking about whether tunafish salad and chicken
salad were regional things.  How is asking such a question "having it my
way"?  Iow, what the fuck are you talking about?

Uh huh.  That is indeed compelling evidence of Southerners and <mayo>.

        They're not as far as I know.  I don't know why white
southerners are associated with mayonnaise and white bread.
You should tell me.

        And if you gagging at the idea of mayonnaise on lettuce is
evidence of southern eating habits, then my gagging at the
thought of a tuna sandwich is surely evidence of Yankee
eating habits.

>I am moving closer by the second to vegetarianism.

We've been hearing you say this for at least ten years now.
Go ahead and do it already. Enough thinking.

FWIW, I think of southern cuisine as more likely to
be mayo-drenched than northeastern. I'm no
scholar on the subject, have no cites to back this.
I think of mayonnaise on sandwiches as being
the norm in the midwest.

Berkeley still has a lot of old farts.  They are very important, imo.

Ah. Smart people!

I'm so glad no one forces me to eat 1000 Island Dressing any more. If
I end up in an old age home, they'd better offer a lot of Asian food,

I can't imagine a sandwich I'd happily eat for lunch every day. Even
my favorite sandwich -- rare roast beef with pepper jack on rye --

>How was your day today, Janet?

Better, except my back has gone into spasm and I'm pretty
uncomfortable. Got up, puttered around, took some pain meds, went
back to bed, slept for a lot of the afternoon. Drove to Oakland and
got my ATM card back. Stopped at the office to check the mail.
Stopped by Paul's house to borrow enough pain meds to get me through
until I can pick up my own prescription. Came home and bought a pizza
as a thank-you to Ben and Derek for bringing the bed in from the van.
Just about to get into bed and finish the Carl Hiassen I'm reading.

I'd meant to clean out the front hall closet today, but fuckit.

Costco sliced roast beef is very good--and sliced turkey.

My enthusiasm doesn't last as long as the package does, but that's why
we have freezers.

I had both when growing up. Chicken salad was a special treat -- my
mother makes the best I've ever tasted, with large hand-chopped
chunks of dill pickle and just a little mayonnaise to hold the whole
thing together. A little mustard, too, I think.

No, I haven't. They might be helpful during my more usual back
problems, when it's up around my shoulders. But whatever I did to
myself this time seems to extend over my entire back, from trapezius
muscles down to the lower spine. It's pretty nasty.

I'll try to get in to see my wonderful chiropractor/bodyworker this
week; he's usually able to fix this sort of thing right up.

Understand perfectly why you may want to keep more info on
purchases....but to coin a phrase, ya takes your money and makes your

patrons.

After that we took a nap.  We went out to Macaroni Grill for lunch and
bought a new battery for the UPS. In the afternoon I did a little cleaning
around the house and we watched Boise State demolish San Jose State on
the tube. Then we watched a threesome of L&O shows that we'd tivoed
and we went to bed.

This morning we slept in and watched the CBS Sunday morning
show...forget what it is called.  Then instead of church Gail went
shopping and I weeded flower beds for a couple hours. Then we watched
the Raiders lose.  Tonite we watched several Tivoed shows, including
6fu and sopranos.

Now gail is sleeping and I will be soon.

My front yard has no trees directly in front of the porch.  However
the porch is about ten feet higher than the street, due to a very
steep hill.  However, I had the same expectations and delivery of
service in several other places I've lived.

Tushar, I know I am too late to participate in the contest, but I
have a similar story to help you graph shitassdom.  Many moons
ago, I found a $20 bill in an aisle of my local SuperAmerica
store.  My first reaction was to look for the surveillance
cameras, if any, before I scooped it up.  I took it home, feeling
rather shitty, and asked my daddy, a retired Baptist minister, if
I should have turned it in to the cashier.  Gravely, he said,
"No, son, you did the right thing."

Bushes. All I remember at this moment is the colors:  two white (one
yellow-white, one lavender-white), one red (for Faye, the woman who
built this house and whose roses I inadvertently killed last year),
and one yellow-brightening-to-coral.

Good guesses! University of Georgia, Athens, Georgia

I have parent-teacher conferences tonight and Wed. night, so
I'll be at school until about 9:30pm tonight.  Yuck.  I'm
also told I'll be busy at the conferences since a) I have
freshmen and b) WG parents just love to check out new staff.
  The school is going to feed me a sandwich for dinner and I
have to be dressed up.  Can't wait until this one is over.
     I hope none of the parents of kids I really don't like
show up.

How can I tell you when I'm not aware of it?  This discussion is the
first time I've ever heard such a thing.  Re race, I would bet you a
bundle that you've got it backwards -- that whites in the South are far
less inclined to eat white bread than blacks.

You're conflating two subthreads here.  My gagging isn't evidence of
anything except my personal dislike of something.  I also dislike turnip
greens, which are said to be a Southern thing.

I don't always feel that way.  Sometimes I don't think about it one way
or another.  There are, of course, many days when I guess you could say
I am a vegetarian since there are many days when I don't consume dead
animals of any kind.

I ate egg-salad sandwiches almost every day in Japan.  Sometimes I'd
have half and half -- two smaller sandwiches -- one egg salad the other
tunafish.

You can fondle the server that Words-L runs on!  And then you need to
come visit Spencer and me.  It's about a five-hour drive from here to
Atlanta, which makes it maybe six and a half or so to between here and
Athens.

It's my maternal grandmother's name. This is no distant name to me -- until
I got married my legal name was Marie Curran Tomlinson. Hm. Cuz.

However, I don't go back far with line this at all. My grandmother never
knew her grandparents, and I've found it near impossible to follow through
any other searches. Great grandparents were John Curran and Mary Thomas of
Philadelphia.  (Names like "Mary Thomas" don't help).

Of course they put mayo in their tuna/chicken/seafood salads. Usually.
Otherwise, some other sort of binder/dressing. Natalie, it's a good thing
you never volunteered to bring the devilled eggs.

Wendy's sells them. Actually, I haven't had a Wendy's hamburger for about 15
years, but I have had their chicken sandwiches. Pretty good.

    I thought one was either a vegetarian (of whichever variety one
    chooses) or one wasn't.  Isn't being a sort of vegetarian like
    being sort of pregnant?

I make tuna salad about once every two weeks, pretty regularly, with celery,
onion, carrot, celery salt, a touch of oregano, and mayo. Served on rye
bread preferably.

Chicken salad is more rare, generally whenever I make a big batch of chicken
stock for soup using the whole bird. I think I do it very well, emulating a
favorite deli in the city: chopped breast, onion, celery, fresh dill, mayo,
and a splash of apple cider vinegar, salt and pepper. Topped with a fresh
tomato slice if possible. Also best on rye bread.

I forgot I had mentioned this, and I was wondering how far it had
spread. I think that I heard of this in the BA, too. It's tea with
'bubbles' of pearl tapioca in it--it's Taiwanese. There are several
places here that have it, the one we went to last night is in a
mostly-Asian shopping center. I had cold passionfruit green tea; I was
dubious, but it was very good; I'd have it again, without the
pearls. The pearls are like little jelly globules. It's an
entertaining surprise the first five times, but I left most of
mine. Ligniere, who always finishes everything because of the starving
masses, ate all of his but he made faces the whole time. The clientele
was exclusively Asian, except for us. They did have a help-wanted
sign, but we bet my chances of getting hired were small because I'm
too old (it's a young, hip crowd) and too white.

No. There are lots of types of vegetarians, such as vegans and
ovo-lacto. I don't see how that could apply to pregnancy. Their
vegetarianism is quite real no matter how they limit it.

I can't imagine going to Japan and eating egg salad every day when
there's so much else to eat!

       Ever since I was a kid being told to clean my plate cuz they

       how my eating up all the damn eggplant helped anybody in some

       T'would seem much more useful to do what some churches and

       money you didn't spend to a food bank, overseas food charity,
       or whatever.

He was my first--so to speak. I've been hearing a lot about this since

     I know there are many types.  I think I indicated that in the
     post.  But whatever type you are.  Spose you're a vegan and then
     one day eat a hamburger.  Are you still a vegan?  I don't think
     so.

Is the oregano an East Coast thing? A sandwich shop in New Haven used
to make the most wonderful tuna with oregano; I haven't thought of
that in years.

My choice is to continue doing business in my usual way. If they come
after me, cf. the Fritchie scenario. I have little to lose anymore.

Not that I know of. It's my own personal thing. Actually, I guess maybe it
comes from the fact that I used to <love> tuna hoagies -- which generally
come sprinkled with oregano. So I like oregano in tuna. Just a touch. I
think I give more attention than most people do to tuna salad.

Bookstores & Patriot Act--more


A freedom sold is very difficult to buy back again

Bookstore owner speaks out on erosion of privacies

WorkingForChange
10.25.02

Last month, on September 11, Leif Enger, author
of Peace Like a River, came to read at Eagle
Harbor Book Co. I spoke with Leif a few days
before and we both agreed that we could add little
to the cacophony of voices remembering the
events of one year prior. However, I told Leif I
wanted to begin with a few words, though I didn't
yet know what they would be.
On the morning of the reading, I didn't go to work,
but went, instead, to my boat. I meant to stay for
a few minutes, but I ended up spending the entire
day thinking and writing. I realized there was
something very, very important being ignored.
Something that had to be said, something that, on
September 11, 2002 would be difficult to say. This
is what I said to the audience that night:


Hi. Thank you all for coming. I'm Morley Horder and
my family and I own Eagle Harbor Book Co. I'd like
to begin this evening with a moment of silence...
Freedom. Freedom of speech, of association, of
religion. Freedom to think what we want, to write
and to publish what we want, to believe what we
want, to say what we want, and, yes, to read
what we want, in complete privacy.
Freedom is a cornerstone of our America. Today, in
a rapidly changing world, where fear has arrived in
America, we face choices that may fundamentally
change our country forever: choices to limit
personal freedom in the name of public security.
This is not the first time we have made such
choices. Twenty years ago, for example, we
embraced airport security checks with little debate.
Recently, we have been told we may not board our
local ferries if we are not willing to submit to
random searches. Next, we may choose to give up
the right to cross our bridges or to enter our
buildings without being checked.
These decisionsto limit our personal freedoms
for the security of the wholewill be loudly
debated, as they should be. We will clearly
understand the price we are paying in the loss of
our personal freedom and feel the security we gain
in return.
What concerns me, however, are recent decisions
made without significant public debate, the
unintended effects of which are not so easily
measurable.
The purposeincreased public securityhas
been hailed, while the unintended resulterosion
of freedomhas been largely ignored, or,
perhaps, considered worth the cost.
An example is the Patriot Act, passed in October
2001. The Patriot Act was created by good people
for a good purpose: increased security for all
Americans.
Under the Patriot Act, the FBI can obtain court
orders to monitor anyone it thinks may have
information relevant to an anti-terrorism
investigation, including American citizens who are
not themselves suspected of criminal activity.
Of particular concern to me is Section 215 of the
Patriot Act.
Normally, when a bookseller receives a subpoena
for customer information, he or she has the
opportunity to ask the court to quash the order on
First Amendment grounds. In several cases,
booksellers have successfully resisted subpoenas.
Under Section 215, however, booksellers may not
have this chance.
Depending on the wording of the order, the
bookseller may be required to immediately turn over
the records that are being sought. In addition,
there is a gag provision preventing booksellers from
alerting anyone that they have received such an
order, making it nearly impossible to determine
whether this new power is being used... or abused.
The Justice Department has refused to release any
information about subpoenas issueddespite
repeated requests by the House Judiciary
Committee. We know, anecdotally, that subpoenas
have been issued. But we do not know how many
times, when, or for what reason.
Eagle Harbor Book Co. has never tracked customer
purchases. We do, however, keep certain records
required by law. And those records, unless the
transaction is in cash, could be used to connect a
customer with his or her purchases.
Perhaps this law makes us more secure. That is
very difficult to quantify.
But our right to read what we want, and, by
extension, to think, to believe, and to say what we
want, in complete privacy has clearly been eroded.
These are fundamental rights that define America,
and they are being soldtradedfor the
promise of security. Such small, often unnoticed
choices to limit our personal freedomsusually
made with good intentionincrementally,
inevitably, change our nation. Such decisions may
be necessary in this changed world, but I urge you
all to consider very carefully before giving your
support. A freedom that has been sold is very, very
difficult to buy back again. I don't want my children
or grandchildren to look back 50 years from now
and say, "This used to be a free countrywhat
happened?"
We will face many more such important decisions in
the coming months and years. If this or other
losses of personal freedom and privacy concern
you, please, speak with your congressperson. Talk
with your neighbors, your children. Write your
newspaper. Contact your local independent
bookstore.
Please, don't let decisions with such far-reaching
results be made without your input.
Thank you.

A postscript: Leif Enger attracted nearly 100
people that night. He spoke eloquently and it was a
very special evening for all. My thanks to the
American Booksellers Foundation for Free
Expression (ABFFE.ORG) for information about the
USA Patriot Act.

I thought it sounded familiar--it's a Long Now project, which I know
of because of Pete. It's definitely a serious venture--I know people
on the advisory committee.

I'm pretty sure I've never had this with black olives.

I don't think people only do things that are useful. And I do think

KK, if you can't tell a generic "you" from a personal "you", you might
wish to consider some additional study.  In addition, it said to

According to a local newspaper, Dyke addressed his workers in Maine and
told them they had nothing to be ashamed of.  The guns they make were on
both sides of the fight.  Many law enforcement officers use that brand.

     Good point.  Also interesting that the dealer who had the gun in
     stock has no record of it either being sold or of being stolen.

That's hardly the point Dan was making.  I know of no vegetarians who eat
meat on some days of the week.  There are also a number of kinds of
pregnancy, ectopic, unwanted, artificially inseminated, etc.  The babies
are quite real to the mothers no matter what the classification.

Even I, who hates strange food, agree with this.  It makes me wonder about

I always thought of it as an aesthetic thing.  To me much of morality stems
from aesthetics.  It is unbecoming to waste food when one thinks of the
starving children around the world.

It's *everywhere* here in the Avenues -- there are tapioca pearl
drink shops on every block in the commercial districts. Sort of the
Asian frozen yogurt of the new millennium, or something. It seems to
be mostly a teenagers' confection -- at least, I see throngs of Asian
teenagers in those places. I haven't tried it yet 'cause it looks
gross.

The people in this place were older than teenagers, but not as old as
we are. Maybe in their 20's-30's. There were a number of families/moms
with kids.

The concoctions are good, just leave out the pearls.

FYI: it was never about me. I was a vegetarian for about 8 years, many
years ago, and accomplished what I wanted by being that way then.
Since then, I've been an unabashed omnivore. (But evidently not enough
of a carnivore that Ligniere asked me, after knowing each other for 10
weeks or so, if I ate meat.)

I agree with this. I'm proud of myself when I leave a good portion of my
french fries on the plate.

Probably, but I am not interested ... it's raining this morning, so I
have gven up thoughts of going to the funeral - anyway, the only handicap
spots are under the control of the Cathedral (i.e., I could use one
without a decal), and there are only two and they will probably be needed
by those truly handicapped - I am just inconvenienced right now.

Bingo. I fail to see how eating food you don't want or need is
anything but a "waste."

Whoa! I CAN continue to learn ... thanks! (On the other hand, I also value
my ability to be (or appear) objective and thorough in some
situations. And I would not mind writing something for The Observer.)

I saw horseradish plants for sale at the nursery where I bought my
roses, but passed. I'm regretting it now.

I love this whole fresh-herb thing. It's great to be able to walk
outside and hack some leaves or part of a root off. (I have both
ginger and galangal. I need some lemon grass and kaffir lime.)

Assume that you're familiar with the use of the word "interesting" to
mean a host of things.  Such as "Well, Dan, how do you like the
eggplant with oregano and caviar that I made for you?"   And I respond
"well, it is interesting".

Exactly.  And, that is said judging ME, not YOU.  I have no idea how
thin or fat you are these days.

I know that one of the reasons I'm fat is that I was brought up on the
"clean your plate" crap, and also that there were many times we were
hungry, and learned to eat damn near anything in any quantity since we
weren't sure what and when we'd get again.  I did draw the line at
eggplant.

I respect him tremendously for _New Rules for the New Economy_; here are
two blog entries related:

http://www.istori.com/log/archives/00000154.html
http://www.istori.com/log/archives/00000052.html

I'd call him a seer.

The Long Now <http://www.longnow.com/> projects have "dreamer" mixed in,
although Kelly's not the only (or the main, I believe) one.  A good chunk
of the mission of Long Now is explicitly inspirational anyway.

The Rosetta Project seems like it has more immediate practicality than,
say, the Clock, not so much for the artifact as the infrastructural tasks
and awarenesses that have to be accomplished to create it.

Which is not to say that the artifacts from both projects aren't cool.

Well, you'd have to talk to Ligniere. I know that he lived for years
in 3rd world countries, and a very good friend works all over the 3rd
world (at risk of life and limb), and I think that this informs his
POV. He doesn't require anyone else to share it, but it does make me
more cautious about what I serve him.

That would usually work. But - the timing is wrong. The older, retired
crowd will want to stay for the lengthy reception, and tho other crowd are
all at work at that hour. And whoever took me would have the same parking
issue I would have. Further, many people will walk to the funeral from
their downtown offices, because of the parking situation. If I were not on
crutches, I would either have gone very early or parked several blocks
away .

Tapioca is one of the few foods I truly do not like. I also do not like
rice pudding - except in Greece, where they have figured out how to reduce
the rice to a smooth puree so that it is not grainy.

My mother made a great 1000 Island Dressing, and she used
catsup(ketchup), mayonnaise, vinegar, chopped black olives, sweet
pickle. I have forgotten the amount of each, but it was fantastically
good. There is, of course, an Official Recipe from the hotel that
originated it. No doubt one can Google for it, but I am not so inclined
at this moment.

What is the difference between mayonnaise and Miracle Whip?
My mother used the latter. We had it on sandwiches. One side butter, the
other side mayonnaise. One or the other is needed for potato salad,
surely?

It's not like those are the only two choices.  Buy less food, prepare
smaller portions, order smaller restaurant meals, make soup with leftovers,
etc. etc.

I had just planted some in my old house in Sacramento when Frank & I
broke up, so I never got to harvest any. However, I'm told it's
extremely invasive -- the new owners are probably cursing my name.

I learned a neat trick with a dollar bill (Actually, it works with any full face portrait - I
learned it on a Canadian 5 portrait of Laurier).  If you put a "mountin" fold down
through the plane of each eye and a "valley" crease half way between them, the
person appears to be grinning when looked at from slightly below and frowning when
looked at from slightly above.  Try it.

Absolutely. I'm all for ways to serve less food and to get as much
mileage as possible out of whatever food one has already purchased.
What doesn't make sense to me is the commitment to eat whatever is on
one's plate. (Of course, if one has a dog, no food goes to waste,
ever.)

Never heard that till this moment. I heart deviled eggs. The best ones
I've ever eaten were made by one of the bridge ladies and she spent her
first 50 years in Detroit.
My grandmother made them too, and she was from Denmark. I've never made
them, but I'll surely eat them wherever I can find them.

There's an Indian restaurant here that serves an orgasmic rice
pudding. IMHO, the difference between a good rice pudding and one I
won't eat is the graininess.

Step one is cooking the rice in milk instead of water.  I like rice pudding a little

use vanilla, honey, heavy cream and lots of lemon zest as well.

Oh. Okay. I think there is a large difference between needing to go to
the store or having somthing carried - time not necessarily specific -
and wanting to get to a downtown, daytime, scheduled event at a certain

I use celery, red onion, red bell pepper, parsley, grated
carrot (if I have it), celery salt and mayo. I usually make
it when I have the veges lying around. My tuna salad is
non-tuna-heavy and very colorful. I like it straight or
with TJ's mini-pita bread.

Huh? Someone who eats hamburger on a regular basis is
no vegetarian however you stretch the definition. It's

The story said "gunman", but who knows if that was a generic reference
to "shooter".

If you shop around here (like at a Mexican grocer) they are the same

We weren't talking about 'on a regular basis', but someone being a
vegetarian and eating a hamburger. Does eating one hamburger make you
not a vegetarian? I don't think so.

Well, wordslers, WTF does this one mean.  I understand the issues of
being a non-native English speaker.  I do like the term "the close
east".  Makes a certain amount of sense.

MOSCOW.

Tragedy, terror, Theatre of Cruelty.

Terrorists - NOT!

Terror - YES!!!

All my preceding comments were blocked!!! Why? Because I dared to write Terroristes - NOT!!!

But, in any the comments nor in any the articles informing of the tragedy, I never read: Mr. President POUTINE, only I read by all Putin!
Why?
However, everyone was filled with wonder by the spectacular action at the "force special"
All agree with the decision taken.
Therefore, why have does not respect that which made this decision?

Is this the reason, because nobody even in the thought wants to say that Tchétchène it is a "terrorist"?
If everyone thinks thus, therefore why one writes: terrorists in Moscow, and not, TRAGEDY in MOSCOW?!!!

Does one have to accuse Mr. President POUTINE, as regards made to Moscow?

Everyone sighed well of relief, but...
I read in no article nor in any comment, even not a temptation to show us the bottom of this TRAGEDY!!!

Yes, it was and it is a TRAGEDY!!!

Tragedy of the Russians!
Tragedy of Tchétchènes!
Tragedy of us all!!!

Yesterday, it was with BALI
Today we have MOSCOW
Before yesterday it was New York, PARIS, Planes...
Without stop and since years, we have the Close East.
Tomorrow,, precisely, where,, how,, how and which,, will be tomorrow?!!!

Why will be tomorrow...?!!!

Because we have today...!!!
Because we had yesterday...!!!
Because we had before yesterday...!!!
Because we have without stop and since years...!!!

It is obvious, that Mr. President POUTINE, could not make another decision.
It is obvious, that the problem of Tchétchénie was not caused by the Russians, even, if it is them which are shown fingers.
Therefore, why?!!!

Why, today, there N is no international NOTORIETY, which can make it possible to solve problems without flow of blood?

Isn't there this NOTORIETY, only and only for the reason, which if there were one of them, there would be no more problems,,, which one cannot solve today,,, without,,, payment of blood?!!!

Why, today that exists?
Who with interest, so that there is this state today?!!!

The close East - the main thing nest of the problems of today.
With the exception of some, nobody wants truly to solve it, in this satisfying only with "promises for more late"!!!
Why?

European union - principal Caricature of the democracy of today.
All are filled with wonder by selling Poland to the Germans and even the Poles them even not seeing that - are filled with wonder like sheep at their "torturers"!!!
The Russians are risés, because they draw all the attention to this situation!!!
France, because it showed and shows this sad truth cunningly collects only spittles !!!
Why?

Norway decided to move the embassy of Israel of its Capital.
Therefore, they have serious doubts about terrorism!!!
Therefore, they consider Israel as the base of terrorism!!!?
Therefore, why they are satisfied only with the displacement of the embassy and not, by a total solution?!!!
This only selfishness dictated by the anti-semitism?
Paradoks or paradox?!!!
Capital of the NOBEL - Symbol and the principal Reference marks of our DEMOCRACY of today!!!
Are the Norwegians ashamed of the NOBEL?
Or, perhaps they try to be justified for the faults made by the Commission which grants the Prices of Nobel?!!!

There, I see already the explosion of hysteria even if one will block this comment.
But....

Moscow, European Union, NOBEL, anti-semitism, terrorism, extraordinary...

Today, Mr. President POUTINE, to save PEACE in the WORLD will it be obliged - obliged to make a decision, which, normally, it would never make?!!!

Will the Norwegians, want they today the displacement of the embassy of Israel?!!!

Poland will it vulgarly be sold to the Germans today?!!!

Will they today, to the Close East run blood?!!!

All these questions have only one answer: NOT!!!

NOT, if we had an International NOTORIETY Respected by All!!!

Therefore, why we do not have it?
Thus why the United States of America today are caricatured and risés?
Thus...
The answer is simple and at the same time alarming: "we do not have it" because today, COMBINE only reign on the Earth and only them based on HYPOCRISY!!!

E.g.:
Everyone is shocked by the anti-semitism and at the same time all show owes the Jews like swindlers...
In parallel, nobody proposes a strict international control of the taking away of the money followed by definition of the international laws, allowing to block the doubtful operations and to return the money in question to all those, has which one stole it!!!
Also, nobody proposes the extraordinary one:
today there is no more "anti-semitism"!!!
If somebody is continued by the law and in parallel shouts "anti-semitism" or at the same time occupies a station raised in a country other than Israel, then one must immediately relieve it of all his functions for the very simple cause:
at the time when it was selected - there was no anti-semitism, and when it has problems with the law - there is immediately the anti-semitism!!!
Israel already has existed for more than 50 years!!!

It is only enough to want to make specific decisions which do not require any financial investment, but only of the goodwill, to cease combine them and the anti-semitism!!!

Why this one does not want to carry it out?!!!

There, I am especially astonished by the fact, which the Jews praise that they have the most Nobels Price and they even did not propose until now this solution!
All the more, that having the possibilities of control of "doubtful" money flows, it is possible immediately to define, which carried out the taking away and by there the doubts or the inculpation of the Jews to the various "miracles are ceased immediately"!!!
It is them which should more want to start this solution!
It is them and only them, which fights against the anti-semitism!!!

E.g.: Poland or Russia
One says, that the Jews led these countries towards the economic catastrophe - the wheel.
In fact, to lead these countries towards the ruin it would be necessary to turn of colossal money sums.
Quantities of money, which cannot be moved by bags but by banquaires taking away!!!

E.g.: European union.
I read in an article which the European Union can save a serious amount of money in are budget while only eliminating its sitting from Luxembourg, which are "useless over there".
Indeed, all the administration of the Union is in Brussels and Strasbourg.
Therefore, that the offices in Luxembourg make?
With which they is used?
For which reason one does find them over there?
By visiting Luxembourg, one sees a splendid city full with antiquities and much with the banks.
For the needs for Luxembourg, such a quantity of banks is forcing in redundancy!
On the other hand, while walking on the city, one sees with the outside of the banks, also a strong quantity of the fiduciary chancellery and of "limp" (addresses) postal of various companies.
This situation causes an assumption:
one goes to Luxembourg "to bleach money"!!!
This assumption is pure provocation, because I do not have any base to say thus, but...
Oui, but, why, those, which one been able in an unjustified way to suspect thus and by there caused a constant doubt about the quality of the institutions of the European Union by weakening its notoriety do not do anything to solve this problem?!!!

While being based on these some examples, the conclusion is very simple:
Moscow, Bali, New York, Anti-semitism...
Today, they are not aucuns incidental!
Everyone knows it and knows the sources!!!
Therefore, why, one does not stop the sources but have is satisfied to repair the holes in the stoppings!!!?

PS
Because the comments addressed previously (signed "sakx1000") all were blocked because of the relevance of the truth, I will sign that one: "Nobody - because of the truth!!!"
*
This comment was addressed today to www.politykaonet.pl, three times successively.
It was three times placed in the waiter, then three times withdrawn from the waiter!!!
Indeed, today, it is not terrorism but the TRUTH which makes a Bleue fear with everyone!!!
Guess why?!!!

MOSCOU.

Tragédie, terreur, Théâtre de Barbarie.

Terroristes - NON !

Terreur - OUI !!!

Tous mes précédents commentaires ont été bloqués !!!
Pourquoi ?
Parce que j'osais écrire Terroristes - NON !!!

Mais, dans aucun des commentaires ni dans aucun des articles informant de la tragédie, je n'ai jamais lu : Monsieur le
Président POUTINE, seulement j'ai lu par tous Putin !
Pourquoi ?
Pourtant, tout le monde a été émerveillé par l'action spectaculaire des "force spéciales"
Tous sont d'accord avec la décision prise.
Donc, pourquoi ont ne respecte pas celui qui a pris cette décision ?

Est-ce la raison, parce que personne même dans la pensée ne veut dire que Tchétchène c'est un "terroriste" ?
Si tout le monde pense ainsi, donc pourquoi on écrit : terroristes à Moscou, et non pas, TRAGÉDIE à MOSCOU ?!!!

Est-ce qu'on doit inculper Monsieur le Président POUTINE, pour ce qui est arrivé à Moscou ?

Tout le monde a bien soupiré de soulagement, mais...
Je n'ai lu dans aucun article ni dans aucun commentaire, même pas une tentation de nous montrer le fond de cette TRAGÉDIE !!!

Oui, c'était et c'est une TRAGÉDIE !!!

Tragédie des Russes !
Tragédie des Tchétchènes !
Tragédie de nous tous !!!

Hier, c'était à BALI
Aujourd'hui nous avons MOSCOU
Avant hier c'était NEW YORK, PARIS, Avions,...
Sans arrêt et depuis des années, nous avons le Proche Orient.
Demain,,, justement, où,,, comment,,, de quelle façon et qui,,, sera demain ?!!!

Pourquoi sera demain... ?!!!

Parce que nous avons aujourd'hui...!!!
Parce que nous avions hier...!!!
Parce que nous avions avant hier...!!!
Parce que nous avons sans arrêt et depuis des années...!!!

Il est évident, que Monsieur le Président POUTINE, n'a pas pu prendre une autre décision.
Il est évident, que le problème de la Tchétchénie n'a pas été provoqué par les Russes, même, si ce sont eux qui sont montrés
des doigts.
Donc, pourquoi ?!!!

Pourquoi, aujourd'hui, il n y a aucune NOTORIÉTÉ internationale, qui peut permettre de solutionner des problèmes sans écoulement du sang ?

Est-ce qu'il n'y a pas cette NOTORIÉTÉ, seulement et uniquement pour la raison, que si il y en avait une, il n'y aurait plus de problèmes,,,, lesquels on ne peut pas résoudre aujourd'hui,,, sans,,, versement du sang ?!!!

Pourquoi, aujourd'hui ça existe ?
Qui à de l'intérêt, pour qu'il existe cet état aujourd'hui ?!!!

Proche Orient - principal nid des problèmes d'aujourd'hui.
A l'exception des quelques uns, personne ne veut véritablement le résoudre, en ce contentant seulement de "promesses pour
plus tard" !!!
Pourquoi ?

Union Européenne - Caricature principale de la démocratie d'aujourd'hui.
Tous sont émerveillés en vendant la Pologne aux Allemands et même les Polonais eux même ne voyant pas ça - sont émerveillés comme des moutons de leurs "bourreaux" !!!
Les Russes sont risés, parce qu'ils attirent toute l'attention sur cette situation !!!
La France, parce qu'elle a montré et démontre cette triste vérité sournoisement ne ramasse que les crachats.
Pourquoi ?

La Norvège a décidé de déplacer l'ambassade d'Israël de sa Capitale.
Donc, ils ont des sérieux doutes sur le terrorisme !!!
Donc, ils considèrent Israël comme la base du terrorisme !!!?
Donc, pourquoi ils se contentent uniquement du déplacement de l'ambassade et non pas, par une solution globale ?!!!
Est-ce que ce seulement l'égoïsme dicté par l'antisémitisme ?
Paradoxe ou paradoxe ?!!!
Capitale du NOBEL - Symbole et des principaux Repères de notre DÉMOCRATIE d'aujourd'hui !!!
Est-ce que les Norvégiens ont honte du NOBEL ?
Ou, peut-être ils tentent de se justifier pour les fautes commises par la Commission qui accorde les Prix de Nobel ?!!!

Là, je vois déjà l'explosion de l'hystérie même si on va bloquer ce commentaire.
Mais....

Moscou, Union Européenne, NOBEL, antisémitisme, terrorisme, extraordinaires...

Est-ce qu'aujourd'hui, Monsieur le Président POUTINE, pour sauver le PAIX au MONDE sera-t-il obligé - obligé de prendre une décision, que, normalement, il ne prendrait jamais ?!!!

Est-ce que les Norvégiens, voudront ils aujourd'hui le déplacement de l'ambassade d'Israël ?!!!

Est-ce que la Pologne sera-t-elle aujourd'hui vulgairement vendue aux Allemands ?!!!

Est-ce qu'aujourd'hui, au Proche Orient ils vont couler du sang ?!!!

Toutes ces questions n'ont qu'une seule réponse : NON !!!

NON, si nous avions une NOTORIÉTÉ Internationale Respectée par Tous !!!

Donc, pourquoi nous ne l'avons pas ?
Donc pourquoi les États-Unis d'Amérique sont aujourd'hui caricaturés et risés ?
Donc...
La réponse est simple et en même temps effrayante :
"nous ne l'avons pas" parce qu'aujourd'hui, règnent sur la Terre seulement et uniquement les COMBINES basées sur l'HYPOCRISIE !!!

Ex.:
Tout le monde est choqué par l'antisémitisme et en même temps tous montrent du doit les juifs comme des escrocs...
Parallèlement, personne ne propose un strict contrôle international du prélèvement de l'argent suivi par définition des lois internationales, permettant de bloquer les opérations douteuses et de rendre l'argent en question à tous ceux, a qui on l'a volé !!!
Également, personne ne propose l'extraordinaire : aujourd'hui il n'y a plus de "l'antisémitisme" !!!
Si quelqu'un est poursuivi par la loi et parallèlement crie "antisémitisme" ou en même temps occupe un poste élevé dans un pays autre qu'Israël, alors on doit immédiatement le destituer de toutes ses fonctions pour la cause très simple :
au moment où il a été choisi - il n'y avait pas d'antisémitisme, et quand il a des problèmes avec la loi - il y a tout de suite l'antisémitisme !!!
Israël existe déjà depuis plus de 50 années !!!

Il suffit seulement de vouloir prendre des décisions spécifiques qui n'exigent aucun investissement financier, mais seulement de la bonne volonté, pour cesser les combines et l'antisémitisme !!!

Pourquoi ceci on ne veut pas le réaliser ?!!!

Là, je suis surtout étonné par le fait, que les juifs se vantent qu'ils ont le plus de Prix Nobels et eux même n'ont pas proposé jusqu'à présent cette solution !
D'autant plus, qu'ayant les possibilités de contrôle des flux d'argent "douteux", il est possible immédiatement de définir, qui a réalisé les prélèvements et par là sont cessés immédiatement les doutes ou l'inculpation des juifs aux divers "miracles" !!!
Ce sont eux qui devraient le plus  vouloir mettre en route cette solution !
Ce sont eux et seulement eux, qui luttent contre l'antisémitisme !!!

Ex.: La Pologne ou la Russie
On dit, que les juifs ont conduit ces pays vers la catastrophe économique - les volant.
En fait, pour conduire ces pays vers la ruine il faudrait tourner de colossales sommes d'argent.
Des quantités d'argent, qui ne peuvent pas être déplacées par des valises mais par des prélèvements banquaires !!!

Ex.: Union Européenne.
J'ai lu dans un article que l'Union Européenne peut économiser une sérieuse somme d'argent dans sont budget en éliminant seulement ses siégeant de Luxembourg, lesquels sont là-bas "inutiles".
Effectivement, tout l'administration de l'Union se trouve à Bruxelles et à Strasbourg.
Donc, que font les bureaux au Luxembourg ?
A qui ils servent ?
Pour quelle raison on les trouve là-bas ?
En visitant Luxembourg, on voit une magnifique ville pleines d'antiquités et beaucoup des banques.
Pour les besoins de Luxembourg, une telle quantité de banques est forcement en redondance !
Par contre, en se promenant sur la ville, on voit au dehors des banques, aussi une forte quantité des chancellerie fiduciaire et
de "boites" (les adresses) postales de différentes sociétés.
Cette situation provoque une supposition :
on va au Luxembourg pour "blanchir de l'argent" !!!
Cette supposition est de la pure provocation, parce que je n'ai aucune base pour dire ainsi, mais,...
Oui, mais, pourquoi, ceux, qui on pu de façon injustifiée soupçonner ainsi et par là ont provoqué un constant doute sur la qualité des institutions de l'Union Européenne en affaiblissant sa notoriété ne font rien pour résoudre ce problème ?!!!

En se basant sur ces quelques exemples, la conclusion est très simple :
Moscou, Bali, New York, Antisémitisme,...
Aujourd'hui, ce ne sont aucuns incidents !
Tout le monde le sait et connaît les sources !!!
Donc, pourquoi, on ne bouche pas les sources mais ont se contente de réparer les trous dans les barrages !!!?

PS.
Parce que les commentaires adressés précédemment (signé "sakx1000") ont été tous bloqués à cause de la pertinence de la vérité, je vais signer celui-là : "Personne - à cause de la vérité !!!"
*
Ce commentaire a été adressé aujourd'hui a www.politykaonet.pl, trois fois successivement.
Il a été trois fois placé dans le serveur, puis trois fois retiré du serveur !!!
Effectivement, aujourd'hui, ce n'est pas terrorisme mais La VÉRITÉ qui fait une peur Bleue à tout le monde !!!

I think he is calling Putin a terrorist or the head of a terrorist
regime. And is saying that the tragedy is really the treatment of
Chetchen (sp), and not the hostages dying from gas?
I dunno.

I know vegetarians who gag, choke, and run out of the room if they discover
there was chicken stock in the pasta sauce.

but eating a hamburger once doesn't mean that you'll ever want one again
I think it's silly (or at least not productive) to say that someone who normally doesn't
eat meat loses their status as a "vegetarian" from having tasted meat at all.  I was
once in love with a woman, but that sure as hell doesn't make me straight.

CNN sez: Between 100,000 and 200,000 reserves will be called up starting
almost immediately. Some will be used for "homeland security" and others
will be trained to "occupy Iraq when the war is over." Is hubris unknown
to this administration? This so offends me that I barely can stand it.

And we guys have known this ever since that pestilential apple first dangled
in front of our consolidated grandmother just as we were about to
demonstrate the utility of one of the most prominent differences in our
anatomy.

Could anyone explain just how the author ended up adding _just as we were
about_ to the thing mentioned above?The thing about the apple and our
consolidated grandmother is fine,but the just part is a bit intrigueing...

Best,

Here is a good site:

....And we guys have known this ever since that pestilential apple first
dangled
in front of our consolidated grandmother just as we were about to
demonstrate the utility of one of the most prominent differences in our
anatomy.....

Could anyone explain just how the author ended up adding _just as we were
about_ to the thing mentioned above?The thing about the apple and our
consolidated grandmother is fine,but the just part is a bit intrigueing...

Best,

If you don't have time to look it up and
read it, here is an excerpt which will
give you a bit of the flavor of it.
Speaking of an underground back-up
government, it says:

"The core group of federal managers would be
drawn from the same bureaucratic minions whose
self pre-occupation, negligence and apathy caused
the deaths of thousands in the World Trade Center. "

     Yah, but....  it is generally accepted that there are varying
     degrees of straight/bi/gay.  If you're identifying as gay now (as
     opposed to bi), then if you were to hit the sack with a woman,
     I'd say you weren't gay, but bi.

     None of this is in any way a value judgment of the goodness of
     being gay, veggie, or anything else.

I did not post it for the editorial opinion, but for an explanation of

So you can pick a number from 42K to 100K, depending on who you want

OK. Then rely on CNN, which is frequently unreliable, and often
downright incorrect. I have a NYT password, but I never have to enter
it. I just go there and I am in.

If you say it loud enough it might.

Some categories have parameters that are more strictly defined.  To me,
"vegetarian" means "I choose not to eat meat"  To you, it obviously means "I have
never eaten meat."

At the very least it means "I am committed to not eating meat."  It
certainly does not mean "Most of the time, I don't eat meat."

Worst Schools? The Dumbest State Is...

...New Mexico. And the smartest is Connecticut.

These are the findings of the Education State Rankings, a survey by
Morgan Quitno Press of the educational systems in all 50 states. Using
21 factors that included a strong commitment to students and teachers,
an emphasis on excellence in the classroom, and support of safe,
well-run public schools, Morgan Quitno Press, an independent private
research and publishing company, ranked the states for their educational
quality based on how they compare to the national average.

This report card isn't good.

    Why is it we have peace rallies and the other guys have "Death to

     I know.  You'd tend to believe the promoters.  I'd say the cops
     are relatively disinterested in giving anything other than
     accurate numbers.  I'm sure some cops would support going into
     Iraq, but plenty wouldn't.  After all, many of them could be
     called up, or their kids, etc.

     Actually, it would be to the cops benefit to have a bigger
     number, as then their reports could show how great they did with
     this giant crowd, how come they needed more on overtime, etc.

    I don't think so.  Any more than you, or another friend who was
    once married aren't gay.  My friend is still gay, and has always
    known he was gay.  He tried to meet standards of forty years ago
    and did the woman thing for twenty years before giving it up.
    Yes, he's gay.  So is someone who doesn't eat meat a vegetarian,
    at least until they start eating meat.

Exactly.  They know what she reads, what ads, if any, she clicks on,

================================

HOW SAFE IS YOUR MRI MAGNETIC ZONE?
------------------------------------

The MRI scanner is a super-conducting magnet that is always on. The powerful magnetic force attracts
metal objects and can cause seemingly innocent objects to become airborne missiles that can cause
serious injury to someone standing in its path or could seriously damage the magnet. Above are
some examples of objects brought under the influence of the magnetic force generated by the MRI scanner.

Beyond MR safety training, good safety practices, patient screening and emergency procedure protocols,
proper selection of the tools and related equipment are paramount in reducing potential hazards introduced
into your MRI magnetic zone.

Any objects introduced into the MRI magnetic zone that are constructed in part or whole with ferromagnetic
materials and even some objects labeled as non-magnetic will come under the influence of the MRI scanner.

Before introducing any item or object into your MRI surroundings consult a reputable vendor specializing in
medical magnetic environments, their specialists can address questions or concerns and steer you to a solution
that will meet the requirements of your MRI magnetic zone.

I imagine it is the cookie monster. It always surprises me, though,
because I go to the Times only when somebody gives a link, which is
maybe twice a year. And then I think, "What? They didn't forget me yet?"

Certainly women should be included. Never have thought otherwise. But
maybe not **only.**

Just wondering--Would you trust an army of only women to protect you?

I didn't say "sort of a vegetarian."  I've known lots of people who have
said that they were vegetarians at certain times in their lives.  That
might be like being pregnant since one isn't pregnant forever, but it's
not about "sort of."

They won't know much. I just read Pete's link and the other day I read
the 88-mile bookshelves article. No ads, no other clicks. Those are the
first times I've been to the TImes in months.

What if you're pregnant and then one day give birth.  Are you still

I do.  Or at least I used to.  Haven't seen him in many, many years.  A
Seventh-Day Adventist I was in grad school with was a vegetarian except
for eating a hamburger for lunch every Friday.

Miles's girlfriend Kristine is a vegetarian but very occasionally
will nibble on a few bites of meat.

With the exception of my mother, I'm the only woman I know who has
never even tried to be vegetarian.

Took into my stomach?  I realize that food is some people's top priority
when traveling.  It's far from mine.  I had ample Japanese-food-eating
occasions -- like almost every time I went out to eat with friends, plus
eating soba noodles almost every night.  Japanese food in general is way
down my list of favorites.  I much prefer Chinese -- of all varieties
(except that godawful sludge I ate in Beijing).  Italian is at the top
for me.  I tend to find Italian restaurants when traveling anywhere in
Europe.  I forgot to mention that I love certain Korean food also.  One
of the best meals of my life was in a tiny hole-in-the-wall place not
terribly far from where I lived in Tokyo -- a Korean place owned by a
friend of a friend of mine.  And back to the subject of Japanese food --
I did love almost everything that particular friend of mine cooked.
She's a great cook.  But it was at her house that I couldn't make myself
eat the largish fish head.  And suddenly I'm reminded that I also like
Thai food.  I can't remember now what Thai food I've eaten in Thailand
-- I have no food memories at all of Thailand -- wait -- I do have one
-- it was the last night of my first trip to Thailand -- I was back in
Bangkok after having gone up to Chiang Mai, and I had squid pizza.
Anyway, I do remember a great Thai meal in a Thai restuarant in Beijing
the night after I had eaten the Chinese sludge/slug/whatever.

Bottom line, though, is that food is not what I'm most interested in
when traveling.  I consider food fuel to keep me moving.

Nah. You can at least add me, although I'm pretty sure you'll be receiving
other similar responses.

How nice for him.  Paul would accept that.  As long as the guy thought of
himself as a vegetarian, he was a vegetarian.  Moral standards, reality
checks, and the meaning of language be damned.

The friend we visited in Vermont was a vegetarian.  When she was pregnant,
she craved protein.  Now she has two children, the second of which is still
nursing.  She eats meat.  But she no longer calls herself a vegetarian.

You know me.  I took an animal rights class and was one of the few who
didn't give up eating meat.

This strikes me as the stupidest reason in the world to be against
war.  The other side of the coin would be equally absurd:  "I'm for war in
Iraq because neither I nor anyone I love is likely to have to go over there
and fight."   Either the war is justified or it isn't.  The fact that
people will die has nothing to do with that.

It's <bad> imho if you were in control of how much food is on your plate
-- like at a buffet or in your own house or whatever.  But often you
have no control -- like in most restaurants these days, with their
absurdly large servings.

The MSU cafeteria makes wonderful rice pudding.  They don't have it all
that often, but I love it when they do have it.  Good bread pudding also
-- which they seem to have much more often than rice pudding.

I don't know about potato salad, but I do find the idea of butter and
mayonnaise together way weird -- as well as the idea of butter on any
kind of sandwich.  (I love butter, I should add.  But I've never heard
of puttting it on a sandwich.)

I almost forgot to report that I asked at lunch today whether anybody
had ever heard of a connection between Southerners and mayonnaise.
Nobody had.  But it was a very small group today -- two New Orleans
natives, one upstate-NY native, one native of Utah (but not a Mormon --
she's Jewish -- I think I forgot her when I was tallying religions
yesterday), one Indianian, and me.  All of these people have lived here
for a long time now -- iow, they're not <aliens>.  The Utah person said
that she thought more mayonnaise was consumed in that part of the
country than in the South.  The others said that they'd never noticed
where mayonnaise was consumed but certainly didn't think it was a
Southern thing.  One of the New Orleans natives always uses mustard for
salad dressing, btw.  She creates beautiful salads at the cafeteria's
salad bar and then dribbles mustard on them.  I find that unusual.  Not
really <gross>.  Just odd.

That depends.  Some people are adamant about not letting their dogs have
table scraps.  Since I almost never have scraps, that's not a worry for
me.  (I would not be adamant about it, though.  Unless a dog is
overweight or the scraps are a regular thing, I see nothing wrong with
giving them to a dog -- in a special place after the meal -- not from
the table.)

Oh, I've been putting butter on my bologna sandwiches for years.
A neighbor who was a friend of Mom's introduced me to it when

Yes. I never have tried. Although I am not a big meat eater when left to

I don't hand Amy food from the table, but I put the plates on the
floor after we've finished eating from them. Helps keep the pack
hierarchy clear ;)

 Are you saying that you want the grains of rice to be undiscernible in
rice pudding?  Not me.  I don't want mush.  I like seeing and feeling
the grains of rice.

Hmm.  Maybe I'm thinking that because I've heard that deviled-egg dishes
are Southern.  That may not be true either.  (I do have a deviled-egg
dish but have never made deviled eggs.  Or at least I used to have one.
I can't remember having seen it recently.)

I'm glad that Espen is on our side. But none of these countries is known

I started to say "oh yes -- that's Southern!" but then realized you said
veggies.  I've never had veggies in jello.  I was thinking of fruit.  I
do like jello jammed with banana, apple, pineapple, etc.

I must confess to sometimes buying little cartons of deviled eggs if I'm
grocery shopping when hungry.  Every time I do it, I say to myself that

I've tasted those fantastic green ones I had Saturday night.  Ones in
grocery stores will pale.

No.  It's not at all your style.  Why would you want to shoot professors
of nursing?  And Mesa really isn't all that close, is it?

I think it makes you not a vegetarian in that general time period.  But
I don't think it means that you've never been a vegetarian in the past
or could never be one in the future.

I agree.  The person I mentioned who ate a hamburger for lunch on
Fridays said that he was a vegetarian every day but Friday.  That made
sense to me.  If he had said just "I'm a vegetarian," the Friday
hamburgers would have made me conclude he was lying.  He was very, very
serious about his religion.  I'll never forget that Friday night in
summer when we convinced him to go to a party with us since it would end
before dark.  Darkness was falling, and he was panicking.  I was
mightily offended by the people who didn't seem to worry about his
feelings.  (And I took him home at that instant and then returned to the
party.)

I don't know the vegetarian rules of Seventh-Day Adventism.  Like I
don't know why he considered it ok to eat a hamburger on Friday.  The
first time I ever heard of tofu turkeys was a Thanksgiving report from
another Seventh-Day Adventist I knew in graduate school -- the woman who
taught at a Seventh-Day Adventist college in Chattanooga and was taking
a once-a-week class at UT.  She wore rubber alligators.

    The last GMA gunshow a guy bent down and picked up a fin laying on
the floor.  Holding it over his head he looked around and asked rather
loudly, "Hey, did anybody drop this?"  We all just looked at him, and
after a bit you could almost see him mentally shrug and then put it in
his pocket.
    I still can't believe that the dealers didn't trample each other.
Perhaps I've misjudged them all these years.

What's really amazing about the bread pudding in the MSU cafeteria is
that you can almost taste the bourbon, even though it is alcohol-free.

Different, I think.  The National Guard consists of people who are still
active in the NG, as in spending a weekend a month plus two weeks in
summer or something like that on war play.  The Reserves, I think, are
former military people.  Isn't it like for X number of years after being
discharged, you're still considered in The Reserves?

memememe. Growing up, my best friend was vegetarian.
She had twin older sisters who used to bully me about
eating meat. So much so that I'd not go to their house
when the sisters were around. Never occurred to me to
give up eating meat though.

Nowadays every time I read about factory farms I think
it would be nice to give up eating meat but have never
seriously considered doing it.

I have never understood why women weren't subject to it.  I remember
arguing that point with my father one time and not understanding why he
just didn't <get it>.  He said, "Would you want to be drafted?"  I said,
"No.  Not any more than John [or whoever] wants to be."

No, it says nothing about the past. I'm a vegetarian describes
present and immediate-to-long-term future states.

I remember coming home from school and
opening the frig and taking out a jar of
thick cream and spreading it on bread and
then sprinkling sugar on it.  It was very
satisfying.

But lard!  Never!

And that's a reason for being for or against it?  Sure, it's human
nature to bring it all back to <self-interest>.  But it nevertheless
bothers me mightily that so many people do make moral or political
judgments based on their own personal situations.

I don't know why I feel this way, but in this discussion I tend to
differentiate between people who are vegetarians for health reasons
and those who are vegetarians for ethical reasons. If you're a
vegetarian for ethical reasons and you eat meat, that seems
hypocritical; if for health reasons, well, what the hell, it's your
body.

Well, yeah. But I know that on 9/11, the first website I looked at

Hey, Red/Mandar/whatever.  Pay no attention.  Natalie likes to use the
imperial "We," as if she were in some sense in control of this list.  In
fact, she is speaking only for herself, and sometimes many of us doubt even
that.

I agree with this.  I also know at least one vegetarian who is so for
aesthetic reasons.  He just doesn't like meat and has been that way since a
child.  He claims not to be a vegetarian because he thinks of that as a
political position.  He simply doesn't eat meat.

    Me neither.  (The fact that my mother was a WAC may color my beliefs somewhat.)

    Having said that, I have to add that, despite the Russian experience, I don't
feel women should actively bear arms.  (Not being able to throw a grenade beyond
its lethal radius is a drawback, I think, and if I had to be hauled into a rescue
chopper I'd prefer the rope be pulled by Hulk Hogan, not Madonna.)  OTOH, boys
think blowing things up is cool, so I don't know.
    Furthermore, I'd be pretty tight on deferments.  (Full Disclosure:  I went from
2-S to 1-A to 4-F in 90 days.)  I mean, if my library can find work for people in
wheelchairs I'm fairly certain the US Army can as well.

Not at all; very happy that you were "right". As I said, ambiguous
mutterings are always turn out right, but the constant whiney tone
of "was it X? gee, I thought it was Y" has to be checked at some
point. I'd make a joke about a posteriori wisdom, but you wouldn't
get it and what would be the use? Let's just say that given your
lack of openness to possibilities and obvious ignorance of how
probability--or for that matter empirical investigation as a
whole--works, you would make a thoroughly incompetent police
detective. Since you are such a civil gentleman, then, you
should stop pontificating about their profession.

You didn't say that. I said it. It's a basic property of "marking".
No community is fucked if the bad guy turns out someone unmarked.
Not that I would have to repeat basics like this to remedially
clueful people. Maybe you should start analyzing the unintended
hilarity of "a Muslim *named Mohammed*" and perhaps the connection
with your brilliant intuitions will become clear to you.

Some dialects, or I guess registers is the word, can have
more than others. And I see now that neither liberal nor
complicated is the key property, it's fast-changing that
may make it difficult. I could tell from talking to my
brother-in-law that I will sound slow and stupid in
Bombay--I mean more than I used do.

Don't take this wrong, but "you have as much of a right"
etc is not good enough. You might want to hear my opinions
all right, but some semblance of a common base of knowledge
must exist before conversation is even possible.

Jimmy did forward the mail to current Netscape people, and this person
replied to me.  I have no memory now of that url that I played with.  Do
any of you remember it?  My inclination is to tell her just to forget it
since the point wasn't really that java script -- it was a general point
about the superiority of 4.7 to later versions.

I believe it. Or I believe, if you subtract the rhetorical phrase
in the above, that D.M. belongs to a far smaller population than
she thinks. Of course, I base it on opinions heard from a range
of people in a large city, and hence it may be all fringe weirdo
opinion. But I can truthfully say that I haven't heard any version
of USA as an exporter of unalloyed goodness to worldwide ingrates
as stark as this.

Since this sad shipwrecked piece of nonsense misses my point in a
particularly dense way, it's probably JMW. You could learn one lesson
from this, viz: stick to the flattest, most straightforward diction
possible, especially among people who most fondly believe they are
"masters of irony" and such ... But I post mainly for enjoyment, so,
well, life will have to be tough. Alas!

He said clearly that he was a vegetarian except on Fridays.  As I think
I said a little while ago, that made sense to me.  He didn't say just
"I'm a vegetarian."  That would not have made sense to me if he ate meat
at any time, even once a year.

Er, I think I probably am taking you wrong,
but your message reads, to me, like this:
I have a lot of knowledge and you
have none, so I don't think I want to
talk to you.

And I think that is probably best.
But no hard feelings, okay?

P.S.  But I don't carry the be-considerate-of-guests idea to an
extreme.  Some houseguests might not like dogs in houses at all.  That's
past my polite-hostess line.  If they don't like dogs in houses, they
can go home.

I'm not a vegetarian but I really don't care for much red meat, except an
occasional hamburger.  (The kind that the juices run down your arms when
you eat it.)

I don't think so.  I don't say "veggies" and don't hear it often.  I
used it above because I tend to use the words that were used in the
postings I'm responding to.  I have of course heard "veggies," but it's
not something I would say myself.  It sounds a bit less alien to me,
however, than "mayo."  As I think I said earlier, I'm not sure that I've
ever heard anybody say "mayo" in <real life>.  I have heard living
beings say "veggies."

I haven't seen Betty's original yet, but I do remember "cinnamon toast"
-- toasted bread (white) with sugar and butter and cinnamon.  It was a
breakfast thing -- not something for everyday but an occasional treat.

What is a lard sandwich?  At risk of being called mutant, I must admit
that I don't really know what lard is.  Yes, I know the word and have
heard it for eons.  But I've never really known exactly what it was
other than that it was something unhealthful that was used by some
people in cooking.

The keyhole thing was scarier because it carries the idea of "without your

No.  One doesn't need to shoot nursing professors to be <interesting>.
You are far, far, far from boring!  (Which would be more interesting,
shooting nursing professors or shooting professors of nursing?)  But

That information was not in your original post, quoted above.  You said he
"was a vegetarian" not that he claimed to be a vegetarian six days a week.

That makes sense to me.  It would be <wrong>, imho, for somebody who is
a vegetarian for ethical reasons to stray but not so bad for one who is
a vegetarian for nutritional reasons.  Still, though, I would not say
"I'm a vegetarian" if I ate meat even occasionally.

It depends.  The family dog should be well behaved, too.  If not, perhaps
it should be kept separate until the  invited company leaves. Dog should
not jump all over people for example.

Thanks for the update. The conclusion, of course, is that
I think I am so damn smart I can barely condescend to talk
to you. Let me close this by saying this: if when faced
with a problem someone makes a nice vague expansive prediction
such as "the answer must be X or Y or Z!", that has zero value,
even if the answer turns out X. On the other hand, someone who
even starts with nothing and but finds X gets all the points.
At this point if the first guy says "I told you", he is what
I described--an incompetent, chip-on-the-shoulder, and almost
always whiney and patronizing shit at the end of bar. But if
he did get a groovy county/mountie rhyme in, overall all is
well ...

Warm milk.  And a little butter.
And cinnamon.  In a rather flat bowl.

You don't like any word that ends in the ie sound.  You flamed me once for
using the word hubby.  You should change your name to Bett.

Well, sure.  That would be my reason to be a vegetarian.  I've never
been crazy about meat, and the older I get, the less I like it.
Something about it sort of grosses me out.  I have said all this before
-- that my leaning toward vegetarianism isn't about ethics or about
nutrition.  It's about being turned off by meat.

Did Janet's answer of "rendered fat" mean anything to you?  Think of the
grease that's left in the pan after you fry bacon.  That's lard.  And often
it was exactly that which my parents smeared on bread and ate.

Interesting -- I don't like the thought of sugar on peanut butter but
have had plenty of pb-and-honey sandwiches in my life.  I don't know why
I make that distinction.

I think SBTWE is scarier because it's for widespread public consumption,
and because as one commenter wrote, it "looks like a 50's sci-fi magazine
cover for the dystopian future of 2002," or like _1984_ come to life.

I went to visit some Huskies this afternoon and discovered that they
don't slink up to the table and beg, they knock you down and try to
dine on you in the doorway.

I love the noise they make, that not-exactly-a-howl. One of these dogs
has the doggy-walker I provided the URL for. His lower body has
atrophied terribly since the last time I saw him, in August.

Yes!  I had forgotten about it.  It was good on
a cold morning.  It was my father's favorite.
In his later years, when he suffered from cancer
and could eat very little, this was one thing he
returned to and could tolerate for a time.
It was probably the last thing he ate.

Just in case Tushar is sincere in wanting to know how he can sound like
less of a smarty-pants, here's a suggestion or two.  First of all, never
say "don't take this wrong".  That immediately puts people on guard that
you are going to insult them.  You might have phrased the above:  "Before I
share my opinions on this topic, I think we need to build an agreed-upon
foundation.   I'll state my beliefs and knowledge on the topic and then you
can respond with what you know.  We'll take it from there."

I don't think I've ever known anybody with a severe allergy to dogs, but
I would assume that such a person would inquire about the dogginess of a
house before accepting an invitation to enter it.  I don't consider
doglessness the default.  Iow, I think it's up to that person to check
out the dogginess before coming.  And if a person did have a severe dog
allergy, he/she had best stay away.  Putting the dog outside during the
time the person was present would surely not take care of the problem.
The allergens would be mightily present in the house.  So yes in answer
to your question.  Somebody severely allergic to dogs would be stupid to
come into my house.

    Okay, I can see the problem here.
    Tushar, adjust the meds.
    Additionally, your of view Words-L as some sort of textural video game in which
your admitted, and admirable, command of English, can be displayed.  I don't.
    Confession Time:  I went to Wordstock fully prepared to punch out your lights.  I
hadn't been so infuriated by another's arrogance to the point of physical violence
since the seventh grade.  I was actually looking forward to it, I'm ashamed to say.
Until I met you in person.  I'd as lief kick a stray dog.  You wouldn't even shake my
hand, much less raise your gaze above your bare feet.  I think we both knew what the
situation was.
    Stop it.  Be nice for a change.  Who are you trying to impress?

I agree.  But I also think it's not a bad thing for a dog to be expected
not to hang around a dinner table expecting food scraps.  Since I never
eat at a table except when guests are present, this isn't much of a
problem.

How does one buy it?  Like what does it look like in a grocery store?

I don't think think epicurious.com agrees with you:
"lard
n.  RENDERED and CLARIFIEDpork fat, the quality of which depends on
the area the fat came from and the method of rendering. The very best
is leaf lard, which comes from the fat around the animal's
kidneys. Unprocessed lard has quite a strong flavor and a soft
texture. Lard can be processed in many ways including filtering,
bleaching, hydrogenation and emulsification. In general, processed
lard is firmer (about the consistency of VEGETABLE SHORTENING), has a
milder, more nutlike flavor and a longer shelf life. Lard is richer
than many other fats and therefore makes extremely tender, flaky
biscuits and pastries."

I can't imagine making pastry with bacon grease.

Maybe an inch or two long, with the width appropriate for the length.
And with little depth -- as in they didn't stick way out like fat
alligators might.  I don't remember the color.  Only one.  I should
probably not have said "they" re not sticking out since I'm thinking she
probably had just one alligator.  For sure she never wore more than one
at the same time.

Is Percy Adams still alive and in Knoxville?  She was in his
Dryden/Swift seminar.  Can't remember now the exact quarter.  I'm
thinking maybe winter quarter of '75.

Hmm.  Seems to me it says "except" re his Friday thing.

I haven't bought any for years but if I
remember correctly, it comes just as
butter does, in a block, wrapped in
waxed paper, in a waxy cardboard box.
Looks like a lb of butter, but it's white.

I agree.  I put "veggies" in the category with somebody wearing
"jammies" to sleep or putting things in "the fridge."  Somehow "mayo" is
in a slightly different category for me.  "Mayo" doesn't strike me as
cutsie as much as it strikes me as being said in a heavy Bronx accent.
Sort of like [dIm] for "them" or [nuz] for "news."

It must have gone right over your head but "Before I
share my opinions on this topic, I think we need to build an agreed-upon
foundation. I'll state my beliefs and knowledge on the topic and then you
can respond with what you know. We'll take it from there."

Local march got some media attention, but I didn't see
anything national.

I've heard the term "rendered fat" but don't really know what it means.
Janet's answer, however, was meaningful in that she said it was really
pretty much like butter.  I do know what bacon grease is.  Now *that* is
something that is thought to be a Southern delicacy, although I
personally find it nasty.  Southern cooking of vegetables often inclues
bacon grease.  As I said, I do not personally partake, and I find it
nauseating.  But then people have often told me that I have Yankee
eating preferences.  I'm happy that our cafeteria has several different
places offering vegetables, some under a banner saying "Southern
Cooking," meaning dead pig juices, overcooking, and salt.  I choose the
other line for my vegetables.

This is the kind of thing that makes dialectology fascinating -- and
that makes perception studies a la Dennis Preston fun.  "Affected" seems
like something one might say about a dialect associated with <prestige>
groups.  Southern US English is the opposite in many people's minds.
Yet you find what is normal Southern pronunciation affected-sounding.  I
think somebody once said that here re the [hw]/[w] distinction also.
That, btw, is fading fast.  It's still normal in dialects of people my
age in this part of the country but is vanishing rapidly in the speech
of younger people.  There's some slight move away from [ju] also, though
[nuz] for [njuz] is still very much minority in the South.  (I think the
old thing still works about calling Duke, as in the university, [duk] as
a put-down because of its large number of Yankees.)

It happens occasionally that a person discovers a severe allergy when in
the presence of the allergen. So, if a guest of yours suddenly could not
breathe and another person present opined that the person might be
allergic to your dog - would you not remove your dog at least long enough
to allow the peson to get his/her coat on and get the fuck out? Or is it
just too bad if one discovers an allergy in the presence of your esteemed
dog?

Really, Nata!ie! Probably if you ate more iceberg lettuce ...

Well, I don't either. But then I do not serve Maria dinner at the dinner
table ... And I do not expect dogowners to have dogs at the dinner

This reminds me of when I taught in an elementary school in Ann Arbor
(special teacher:  French, in a compulsory program); and there was such a
bad boy in Miss X's Fifth Grade class that they doped him up and he became
a model zombie.

Tushar, with *that* prose?

Yeah, I know ... I was so afraid of you I couldn't even look you
in the eye, and wasn't courageous enough to even shake your hand,
couldn't engage you in a man-to-man fight when I saw the dangerous
glint in your eye, and hence you couldn't honorably raise your arm
against a petty sniveller like me. Since I don't remember a single
detail of this, consider the possibility that you created the whole
story for the benefit of a tragically foiled drop-kick. Meanwhile,
you have gotten humorless, offense-taking and impossible to talk to
for precisely these out-of-control fantasies. Now, on to being nice:
except for a couple of bizarre freaks, I haven't heard a single foreigner
say "death to America", even in a cryptic foreigner language. In fact,
I haven't even heard the supposedly ubiquitous small-time staple "anti-
American" remarks much, since hanging out with a bunch of somewhat mean-
minded Europeans many years ago. As for me personally, I have more pro-
American and even conservative opinions than anybody here might think,
but I do not like to (a) take that stupid patriarchal shrilly-sarcastic
tone that often comes with the view (b) definitely not air it when put
in a spot by J Random Guy testing my pro-American credentials. And I
don't much care for the tone which implies I can't criticize what I
see around me. Give me respect, then I might talk.

Now here's a very standard type of character that your alas-impotent
"kick you like a stray dog" muttering reminds me of. That character
is the kind of lowlife--generally drunk--which you encounter the
night bombers fly out. If any military is going out anywhere, you
can be sure that some lowlife will come up to you and make some dumb
indirect threat of physical violence. I guess I could pay the price
of being a dead ringer for Saddam or just move to some ultra-safe
gated community, so it's my fault entirely, but overall I don't
shake the hand of any such person, and only stare back if it's
really impossible to look somewhere else. Anyway, I am not equating
you to them, your stance after all being the product of rational
list-reading spanning a decade. Thanks for letting me know, though,
that I infuriated you to the point of physical violence. I must
indeed adjust my meds.

Of course you do.  You just need a
secretary like Bonnie.

Anyway, I've given up worrying about
the world and have moved on to worrying
about Robert Blake.  Now this man
really needs help.  Every move he makes
gets him in deeper.  Now he's said he is
going on with Diane Sawyer, so his
attorney quit.  All this when they've just
found a gun and a pair of gloves in a
box wired up to the inside roof of a
barn on his property.  And I doubt that
he has a even cockatoo left to talk to.

As someone who is allergic to everything with fur, I find your
question quite odd. If your allergy is severe enough for you to be
unable to breathe removing the pet ain't going to do much.

Thanks, Alec, I had no idea they were opening up in DE.
I usually get my TJs fix when I drive back from NYC - the
Marlton store is conveniently on the way.

Hey, Red/Mandar/whatever.  Pay no attention.  Natalie likes to use the
imperial "We," as if she were in some sense in control of this list.  In
fact, she is speaking only for herself, and sometimes many of us doubt even
that.

I have such strong childhood memories of Passover gefilte fish
(although we frequently had it around the house the rest of the
year), that thinking about it makes me wonder whether I'd have a
hard time not having some, or would get repulsed right away by
the smell.

It was a revelation to me at some point that horseradish is not
really red.

There was I time when I was not to be tempted by anything meaty,

But really, I think I might have serious trouble being faced with
a lobster in the right setting.

Regular, no.  But where's the line?  Once a year?  Once every

The fact that people will die is a reason to be against all war.  But I
agree totally with your point otherwise.

It means you take a piece of meat and heat it until the fat melts out
of it, then strain the fat and let it resolidify. It's the foundation
of a lot of great Jewish cooking -- that's the literal meaning of
"schmaltz."

If what you call German potato salad is what I think: slices of boiled potatoes, some onion and a vinager sort of dressing, I like that much better than the white/may-based potato salad.

What about if more innocent children will die if one doesn't go to
war?  What about avenging the death of innocent children, such as in the
Nazi prison camps, by going to war?  How about preventing the death of more
innocent children in more Nazi prison camps by stopping the Germans from
advancing?

How about what the Russians did, gassing 100+ innocents so that the
body-strapped shrapnel bombs won't go off and kill all 700?

Apparently I don't understand how allergies work.  I can't see how
removing a dog from a house instantly removes the allergens. The
furniture and rugs would have to be removed also, wouldn't they?

I don't remember her name.  She was middle-aged and taught at that

Ask him if he remembers the alligator woman.

? I'm the one who said that I do NOT feed dogs from dinner tables
because I do NOT want them hanging around the table.  You're mixing me
up with somebody else in that respect.  If you don't like visiting the
homes of dogs, however, you are indeed right that coming here would not
be wise.  And if you're allergic to dogs, you for sure should stay away
from my car.  I would guess that the allergens are far thicker in my car
than in my house.

Do dog allergies produce excess snot?  Perhaps just the thought of dogs
causes it to start building.  I don't think Bethany said that she has a
dog allergy, of course, but perhaps she's sniffling empathetically with
those who do.

Hmm.  She said, "Sorry, honey, not right now.  I've gotta go talk with a
snake about some fruit"?

This is just fine but _just as we were about_ seems a bit out of place,I was
trying to thing of it in a way the writer did and make some sense out of
it.Thanks,anyway..

What about if more innocent children will die if one doesn't go to
war?  What about avenging the death of innocent children, such as in the
Nazi prison camps, by going to war?  How about preventing the death of more
innocent children in more Nazi prison camps by stopping the Germans from
advancing?

How about what the Russians did, gassing 100+ innocents so that the
body-strapped shrapnel bombs won't go off and kill all 700?

I do agree with you on this one but all efforts should be made to resolve
the crisis amicably before going on the offensive.

How is that you are able to read 200+ emails a day?  Do you not have a
life, like the rest of us?  How did you find us?  Tell us something about

Why did you recieve this mail? :-)

The author seems to believe that nobel was Norwegian and mixes the peace prize up with the other prizes in a belief that there is only one single body which grants Nobel prices.

They might say they eat mostly a vegetarian diet, though. Not what they are,
but what they do.

I have a rubber alligator, battery-powered, that crawls along the floor

>From a bookseller in Baltimore:

Lest anyone think the dangers to freedom are abstract or exaggerated,
consider this: During the reign of terror of the DC-MD-VA sniper, police
were in search of a white van believed to have been used in the
shootings. On at least one occasion, traffic on the Interstate was
brought to a dead halt, and the occupants of all white vans forcibly
removed from their vehicles, and put face-down on the tarmac,
handcuffed.

Did y'all know that the white van drivers were treated in this way? Can
it be so? If I'd been there in my white Blazer, would it have happened
to me?

As I said, it was written by a bookseller in Baltimore. That does not
mean that it is authoritative, but maybe he knows more than I heard
reported. That is why I questioned it--to ask if anyone else had heard

Agree with you.  But there are many I hear saying they don't want war

As noted already, I completely agree with you. But what I stated is
what many people do.  I know a number of people who actually want to

Is it schmaltz that congeals at the top of stock when it's refrigerated? I
scraped my stock yesterday before freezing, and I was thinking I should keep

Yes, thought it was sweet. I never did the lesbian thing, but if I did I
probably would have been much like Jessica -- not very good at it.

BTW, it's not "Who's...", it's just "Kissing Jessica Stein".

 The fact that people will die is undoubtedly a reason to be against

      If they have a severe allergy they don't want to stay there,
      even if the dog is outside. There will already be enough
      allergens around that they'll not be happy and/or well.

    When I was a kid and there was not "real food" in the house and no

    a glass, and add milk and sugar.  That would be lunch or supper.

        I don't think veggies is a regional word, or at least not very

        in Idaho, in Colorado, etc.

Or the difference in where it comes from.  Somehow it seems "good" and
"clean" that butter comes from milk, which we normally eat or drink,
and which is good for babies.  Somehow it seems "bad" to be eating
chunks of fat.   Or so it seems to me.

All that being said, I never use butter, and never use lard.

We did that with cornbread - but no sugar, jut milk. I had many suppers of

Hmmm. I may make some cornbread soon.

I like it on West Wing when they use "due respect" (with the "with

request. It makes me chuckle.

I don't know for sure, but I'd think so. If not, wouldn't the loose
fat on chicken get gross when you freeze it?

To me, mayo is merely a shortened form to type - like lx or ling for
<linguistics>. I don't SAY <lx> or <ling>. SInce I almost never
discuss it or ask for it (except on this <service>), I can't imagine
saying <mayo>.

And in my experience, <veggies> is almost always a self-conscious
acknowlegement that o meal or diet is either deficient in them or heavily
weighted toeard them. IOW it is not a synonym for <vegetables>. It
recognizes - and sometimes disdains - their place on the food pyramid,etc.

YMMV.

I ended up being more a fan of the horseradish then the fish. I loved

Hey there Red....don't forward messages and add stuff at bottom.
Can't tell where the original ends and the stuff you wrote begins.

Even posting at top like this is better, even though it pisses some
off.

I imagine cops can tell blazers from vans.  And that they'd probably

My only point is that if I am invited to a picnic, then I know that there
may be dogs running around - and horses, chickens, goats, cats, etc.,
perhaps. But if I am invited to dinner and the presence of animals is not
specified, I generally assume that I will be in a dining room of some sort
at a table and that there will not be animals running around in that
room. For one thing, I dress differently for occasions when animals are
running around.

I suppose one might describe dinner with dogs in the room as an indoor
picnic? I dunno. But I would not invite guests to dinner without warning
them if I planned to have animals in the room.

If you went to a restaurant for dinner, would you expect that the owners'
pets would be running around the room? Would that be okay?

I have a lot of friends with animals in the home. They occasionally
invite guests over, sometimes for dinner. The animals are not ever
present in the dining room, meeting room, whatever.

"they" was intended to refer to the dogs, not the humans.

However, I do agree with all of your points below.

    Yea, kinda.  Ever since NAFTA there's been more and more Mexican and
"mexican" foodstuffs in the local groceries, although there was always some.
(Corn husks, marrow guts, etc.)    The place I usually shop is ethnic as hell and
plays Norten~o music on the PA.  I kind of like living somewhere where they roast
fresh chiles out in front of the store, although some of the meat on display is
digusting...
    Y'know, until last night I didn't know that there was such a thing as a masa
spreader.  8-)

How could you know Natalie well enough to be invited for dinner but

Not everyone is like you, I know to my chagrin.

I've been to bookstores like that.

It's not her having a dog that is the issue - it's whether it will be in
the guest area, dining-room, etc. I know few people who own houses who do
not also have at least one animal on the premises.

Consider Teenie, the owner of PF. On the premises are about 40 horses,
4-5 dogs, 4-5 cats, a donkey, Not one of the animals has ever been in the
guest area or dining-room during a dinner party.

How could you know Natalie well enough to be invited for dinner and
not know that the dog was an integral part of her life and probably
would be around?

I think it depends on the size of the party.

As someone who is allergic to anything with fur, I think it's
incumbent on me to investigate the animal situation. The friends I
went to visit yesterday, I'd never sleep over at. They have three
dogs, and even though they had just cleaned the house, there were
clumps of hair all over.

Exactly--one is less likely to see pets at a party that size. One is
more likely to see them at an intimate gathering.

Maria is not a dog. Have most of your friends met Maria? Does she ride

    I just saw people being asked for IDs and to open the back, but
anything's possible.  However, since it was raining during that whole period
I assume that more than one damp pissed-off taxpayer would have said
something.

    Very likely.  I noticed that the description of "white van" was being
interpreted +extremely+ liberally.

Not IME, and being as how I am allergic to furry bodies, believe me, I
notice. An example is the people I visited yesterday--when there were
30 people at their house, the dogs were in the back yard. Yesterday,
when there were 5, the dogs were free to snack on the guests.

I'd have flunked out after date #2. Couldn't have persevered

Thanks, I realized that after hitting Send.

Paul, have you seen it? The movie went to great lengths

What do you mean 'interpret'? It's not my job to interpret it. I try
to take what people say about themselves at face value. What this
means is that if I invite them to my house for dinner, I'll make
something that only has vegetables. If I decide to add cheese or eggs,
I'll either make them optional or ask first.

Right. After what you've said about B&Bs, I would investigate very

But everyone has a room/area in which dining occurs - that's the dining

I never had a party, nor has my sister, nor did my parents, when dogs
and/or cats were not present. It would not occur to any of us to hide
the pets. I entertained on a small scale, but my parents and sister
had/have huge parties of 10-50. Never heard a guest complain, either.
Nor collapse with athsma. Maybe we don't know any allergenic friends?

I warn people before they come over that the house contains a dog and
a cat, so they can take their allergy medications beforehand as
needed.

Never would have thought of it. I guess I am insensitive. I think that
in the case of sister and parents, everyone knew them well enough to
know that pets were present, and probably didn't come if they had a
problem with it.

More likely, they drugged themselves appropriately before they came
over.

I've never collapsed at anyone's house; I tend to suffer afterwards.
Though I did see a friend become incapacitated from sneezing when she
tried on clothes formerly owned by a cat owner.

        I thought it was more of an observation: when told to ignore

     Thanks.  My aunt had one hanging over her table in the "family
     room/sunporch", where kids ate when the grownups were eating in
     the dining room.  (She wasn't discriminating so much as she was
     managing the size of group...we couldn't have all fit around the
     dining room table...and we didn't mind, as we didn't have to be
     so good out there)  It was a print, and was framed, not on
     velvet.

----- Forwarded message from <y@z> -----

Is there anybody who believes this is the first time that such a "hoax"
has occured?

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

Sometime ago Alan Sokol et al wrote a completely meaningless article on
quantum gravity which was accepted by a leading, refereed
"deconstructionist journal". Physicists laughed because the hoax was at
the deconstructionists' expense.

But now there is is an inverse Sokol hoax in which, apparently, two
reporters interviewd a lot of string theorists, wrote meaningless but
"right sounding"  papers and even got a Ph.D. Details below. What is
particularly sad is that a key paper appeared in CQG:

<<Class. Quantum Grav. 18 (7 November 2001) 4341-4372 Topological field
theory of the initial singularity of spacetime* Grichka Bogdanov and Igor
Bogdanov Mathematical Physics Laboratory, CNRS UPRES A 5029, Bourgogne
University, France

The trouble is that the abstract seems indistinguishable from standard
stringy papers. I understand that the CQG Editorial Board already
discussed this hoax but found that the paper had been refereed by two
reputable string theorists.

More details:

#1.

I always thought Sokal's hoax would also work in theoretical high energy
physics. Now there is experimental proof.

Two brothers, Igor and Grichka Bogdanoff, journalists and science fiction
writers, both in their late 40's, decided it is high time to earn a PhD,
and that this should be just as easy in `stringy' high energy physics as
it alledgedly is in sociology.

First they interviewed a number of prominent French string theorists in
order to accquire the lingo, then (apparently without help from a trained
physicist) spoofed two theses.  To prepare the ground for their defense
they spread rumors of them being geniuses and their theses being a
milestone in theoretical physics. Although the official PhD awarding
institution is only the (so far not too renowned) Universite de Bourgogne
the members of the thesis committee certainly make up for it: R. Jackiw
(MIT), J. Morava (John Hopkins), S. Majid (Cambridge), C. Kounnas (ENS),
I. Antoniadis (CERN and Ecole Polytechnique), and others. For the actual
defense they rented a hall in the prestigeous Ecole Polytechnique,
arranged a big dinner with the president, invited the TV, ... and passed
gloriously. The thesis can be found on the offical CNRS server
(http://www.ccsd.cnrs.fr/). Already the abstract is a delightfully
meaningless combination of buzzwords, that almost beats Sokal's, but which
apparently has been taken seriously by the committee!

The bad side of the joke is that it might hurt theoretical physics in
general. The CNRS apparently even contemplates to split the present
theoretical physics division into a pure mathematics and an experimental
physics branch. Theoretical physics, being now more fiction than science,
is meant to be entertained by professionals in that area. Hopefully the
Bogdanoff ``singularity invariant'' for the ``topological expansion
phase'' of the universe will provide a way out ...

I'll keep you informed. Best regards, -- Max

#2.

Dear Ted, sure you can show the letter to others. Let me stress however
(and maybe you should too) that this is not first hand information. A
person who has first hand information is J. Magnen, from the Ecole
Polytechnique. He works on constructive QFT and was not personally
involved.  The issue was apparently discussed in the French National
Research Council, where Peter Forgacs is a member, and he is my source.

A small correction.

In the last minute it seems the theses were not accepted at the Ecole
Polytechnique, but only later by the University of Bourgogne. The TV was
also not permitted to the actual defense, but several people here saw
reports on the Bogdanoff brothers decribing them as outstanding geniuses.

The theses and the committee members can be looked up on the web at
http://www.ccsd.cnrs.fr/

All the best, -- Max

HOAX THESIS:

Abstract in english:

We propose in this research a new solution regarding the existence and the
content of the initial spacetime singularity. In the context of
topological field theory we consider that the initial singularity of
space-time corresponds to a zero size singular gravitational instanton
characterized by a Riemannian metric configuration (++++) in dimension D
4. Connected with some unexpected topological data corresponding to the
zero scale of space-time, the initial singularity is thus not considered
in terms of divergences of physical fields but can be resolved in the
frame of topological field theory. We get this result from the physical
observation that the pre-spacetime is in a thermal equilibrium at the
Planck scale.

Therefore it should be subject to the KMS condition. We consequently
consider that this KMS state might correspond to a unification between
"physical state"  (Planck scale) and "topological state" (zero scale).
Then it is suggested that the "zero scale singularity" can be understood
in terms of topological invariants, in particular the first Donaldson
invariant.  Therefore, we here introduce a new topological index,
connected with 0 scale, of the form Z =3D Tr (-1)s, which we call
"singularity = invariant".

Interestingly, this invariant corresponds also to the invariant
topological current yield by the hyperfinite II* von Neumann algebra
describing the zero scale of space-time. In such a context we conjecture
that the problem of inertial interaction might be explained in terms of
topological amplitude connected with the singular zero size gravitational
instanton corresponding to the initial singularity of spacetime.

Of our three cats, one disappears when company arrives---and stays that way
for the duration unless our visitors are familiar to him.  The eldest
simply ignores company and will find a quiet place for an undisturbed
nap.  The youngest will stick around and will tolerate a little attention,
but will not make overtures.  We don't "hide" them---they for the most part
simply choose to be elsewhere.

Well, you know, my grandmother made a traditional Danish New Year's Day
soup. Crystal clear chicken broth with Danish (like Swedish) meatballs
and lard dumplings, a celery stick and a carrot stick. Each of those
things had a meaning, which I don't remember. But, I have to say that
those dumplings were light and wonderful. She showed me how to make them
once, but I don't remember. I do know that she rolled them into a
longish roundish shape and then put them on top of a pot lid over a
boiling pan of water for a time. I think that was the whole thing.
Really good.

Okay. The M-W Collegiate says 'being out of sight or not readily
apparent'. Again, I ask you, Bethany, how is being in "another part of

It's upsetting that Rita is having a family emergency, but this message

In my experience they may be hiding (cats), they may be put in a room

I have said that Spencer doesn't come to the table.  He might, however,
run off with your crutch.  Calling him "Natalie's dog" sounds awfully
formal.  You can feel free to call him by his first name.

I've always figured that it is significant that the suffix is

I can't see that removing the dog in a situation like that would help
the person get out alive, unless maybe the dog had been taped over the
person's nose.  What harsh comments did I make?  I call it being
realistic to say that somebody with a serious dog allergy had best stay
away from the inside of my house or my car.  In fact, I would call it
considerate rather than harsh.  If the invitee says, "I am allergic to
dogs," then I would be able to provide warning.

He might not remember the alligator(s), but he might remember her if you
said she was a middle-aged commuter from Chattanooga, where she taught
at the 7th-Day Adventist college.

Yes.  Length of a tour of duty.  Normally called up for a year, at
discretion of President.  Could be extended for the duration.

National Guard under state control, but federalized when called up by
President.  Reserves under Federal control.  Either group, when called
up, are part of the Active Army, same as any other soldiers.

Same is also true for other services besides Army.

No.  I think it was probably true of the men in the white van who had
used the phone booth associated with the sniper.  But I don't think it
was done to all white occupants.

Hmm.  What is the subject?  Nursing, with professors as object of the
gerund?  Or professors, with nursing as a participle?

I would expect it in Europe.  Not only the owners' pets but also various
customers' pets.  They might not be <running around>, but surely some
would be present.  And yes, I find the European attitude toward dogs in
public places quite good.  I've heard waiters in France speak to the
newly arrived dogs in restaurants before speaking to the dogs' owners.
Seems quite civil to me.

I find that surprising.  I've known lots of people whose dogs aren't
allowed in the dining room but never anybody who would ban the dog from
other rooms.  (I assume by "meeting room" you mean living room or den?)

I'm suddenly reminded of some friends of mine in Columbus years ago who
had an aged german shepherd and then acquired a young spitz (because
their son got the Spitz while in law school and almost immediately
dumped him on his parents).  Anyway, the old german shepherd had long
known that she was allowed anywhere except the dining room.  When the
spitz moved in, the german shepherd would sit near the dining room door
at meal time and hold up her paw to block the spitz's attempted entry
into that room.  Soon the spitz learned and quit trying.

I consider animals the default and no animals <sad>.  I'm suddenly
laughing, however, about the time Tweety came flying into the living
room in the house of my childhood when the neighbors were over for
cocktail hour one Sunday afternoon.  Mrs. Smith hadn't seen him coming
and was so startled when he landed on her head that she tossed her drink
into the air.  Tweety responded by saying, "You're so cute."  The
neighborhood loved telling that story over and over for many years.  The
experience did not deter her from return visits, I might add.  I loved
our neighborhood.  I loved it because of the children I played with, but
I also realized later how neat it was that all the adults were good
friends and that they had their rituals like the Sunday cocktail-hour
get-togethers that alternated among the various houses.  Most of them
had gone to college together, although they hadn't been especially close
friends and didn't all settle in that neighborhood because of prior
friendship.  It was just happenstance.  Anyway, it was a great
neighborhood.

There are always dogs running around in the co-op here.  I enjoy
speaking to them when I go there.

So you agree with Bethany that putting them in a room with a closed
door is not hiding them?

Why?  Do you think they're more likely to be present for larger parties
or for smaller ones?

Ah, but do these parties take place in Maria's own home?  I think not.
My parties, large or small, are in Spencer's home.

The book store in Bar Harbor keeps dog treats behind the counter for
visiting dogs.  The Internet Cafe keeps a pail of "doggie water" outside
the front door for thirsty visiting dogs.

The doctor or the dog?  Maybe the doctor is onto a money-making scheme.
Maybe she can sell more allergy shots with the dog there.

of course the same.  But then I'm not really sure how people "die
because there is not a war."  Lots of people die outside of war, of
course, but I don't think it's because there's no war.

I don't consider children a default except when the hosts are of certain
ages.  Most people my age don't have children living with them, nor did
most people in my young years.  In a certain age span it is true that I
would consider children a default.

There's an enzyme in fresh pineapple that keeps Jello liquid.  Cooking
the pineapple (as in preparing it for canning) kills the enzyme.

    Okay, then what is it that you can't put in Jello?  I always just make mine straight
up so I don't worry my pretty little head about it.  (But I like grapes.)
    I just remembered that I had some in the mini-pantry!  Says down at the bottom of the
box, and I quote, "Do not use fresh or frozen pineapple, kiwi, papaya, or guava juice.
Gelatin will not set."  Hmmm, repeats the same wording on the side, adding gingerroot
(insert interrabang) and figs.  Maybe Kraft Foods could find a few bucks for you if you
can tell them how to avoid these gelatinous faux paus.

And even in my beloved AP I am seeing a tilt. The worst is on
Wellstone/Mondale, but maybe that's understandable -- even good
reporters can get caught up in emotion and let it (subconsciously, I
hope) subtly color their wording.

But, dammit, the story of the voting reform (yeah, I know) bill
signing this evening gagged me. One sentence said "Bush signed the
bill too late" for it to have an effect on this fall's elections.
Nary a word about Congress passing it "too late."  I suppose it's too
much to expect newspeople to review the Constitution before each
story, but a guy would hope that they'd remember a little from the
high school civics unit in how a bill becomes law.

I have it on higher authority than President Bush that the threat of
attacks using weapons of mass destruction is very real to us USAns.  It
didn't explicitly name Iraq.

The source:  The exclusion paragraph on an Accidental Death & Dismemberment
Insurance program.  "...; declared, undeclared war or any act of war which
includes (but is not limited to) attacks using weapons of mass
destruction;..."  In the past I had seen references to nuclear attacks, but
never the WMD phrase.

Close.  The acronym is "USA PATRIOT": "Uniting and Strengthening America by

"Act" is just "Act".

Interesting.  I've noticed other interesting bits re jello.  My recipe
for the fruit salad calls for using the liquid from the pineapple can,
but I've discovered that you have to make sure it's cold -- that it's
been in the refrigerator.  Otherwise the jello doesn't gel.

I wouldn't have known what you meant here if I hadn't just read Evelyn's
posting.  But I see a connection now.

I've never read the fine print on a jello box, but that's ok since it
would not have occurred to me to use any of the above.  I do use fresh
banana and fresh apple.  I also once used fresh orange chunks but then
discovered that it works just as well and is much easier to get canned
mandarin oranges.

If Southern hospitality means evicting a dog from his own home, then I
am against it.  I will happily do things that I've heard some people say
they won't do for guests, like give up my bedroom to them.  But there
ain't no way I would cast Spencer out of his own home because a visitor
doesn't like dogs.  I would consider that quite harsh.

What do you mean?  What kind of travel site?  There are sites for
transportation and lodging, sites about sites and sights, etc. etc.  For
hotels I normally use travelweb.com.

They were very interested in crotches and butts. I have a picture
seared into my brain of Ligniere bending over to look under the couch
for a juggling ball and one of the dogs...

Well, never mind.

Being allergic to dogs doesn't mean you don't like them.

The federal government has probably spent billions of taxpayers hard-earned
dollars on a registry of guns. Maybe twenty billion by now. I don't like to
pay attention to the numbers, when I have no ability to influence the
big-shots in Ottawa.

Teenage street gangs pay no attention to registering their enforcement
tools. Their guns help build and maintain their 'turf'.

The federal government and the teenage street gangs might as well live on
different planets.

The fire bombs were used for years in Quebec on stores and businesses in
which any English words were visible from the street. With the election of
a separatist party several years ago, the threats to stores and businesses
are carried out by government bureaucrats, with no need for ordinary
citizens to fire-bomb the few organizations still having English visible.
The government of Quebec permits the words in English to be visible, but of
a size no more than half the size of the corresponding French words.
Disobedience results in crushing fines, and can cause bankruptcy. In
Quebec, a respectable citizen is not just someone who speaks, reads and
writes French fluently, but someone visibly Caucasian, with a French last
name, and a family tree going back maybe three hundred years of habitation
in North America. When the separatists lost their poll to leave Canada by a
small margin, the separatist leader blamed the non-French, especially the
recent immigrants, for their betrayal of the people who were genuine Quebec
citizens. They respect purity, and non-French are the impurities.

I know.  But Bethany was talking about not liking dogs.  "Don't like"

Yes, just as lard makes good pies.  They are
known to be hard to digest, however.  That's
why Crisco did so well when it came out.

I was at a very good restaurant like that at our (small - 8 rooms) hotel in Speracedes wher we stayed three nights before we moved into the house we borrowed. The dog was nice and just wished to be petted, he was not after the food.

It was raining when I went to bed, but
this morning the ground was white and
it looks like it's been snowing for hours.
Funny thing, most of the leaves are
still on the trees, which is so unusual
at the end of October.  I guess we just
haven't had a strong wind recently,
which is also unusual for Nebraska.
Pretty out, though.

    I recently saw a cartoon of a bunch of dogs milling around sniffing,
and stuck to each one's butt was one of those convention nametags, "Hello -
I'm Scruff", or whatever.
    Hmmmm.  Maybe you had to have been there.

As I lacked any ambition to make dinner last evening, we went down to Mache
Bistro.  Michael, the waiter/bartender/maitre d'  and I often talk about
the food and its preparation, including ingredients that we like/don't
like.  Last night as he served my entree (duck breast) he said:  "I'm
sorry, we couldn't find any zucchini, so you'll have to make do with broccoli."

It is snowing in Boise now.  Fairly hard flurries.  High to be 35, low
tonite in the teens, back to upper fifties this weekend.  But by then
I'll be in Palm Springs and enjoying the sun and the pool at the
conference.

Understand that.  No airline goes to all the places I need/want to go.
And, the careful shopper will find that the SW prices are NOT always
the lowest, and can even be the highest.

Bama is the Crimson Tide.  Don't call them red.  And yes, Stanford is
the Cardinal (the color) now that they're not the Indians any more.
And Nebraska is Big Red.  And Oklahoma and many others use red as
well.

Since this almost sounds like a guy daring to work outside of multi-
trillion-dollar business, and that too with software, please keep this
hush-hush. What's the best way for *an individual* to pay somebody to
write some code? This is, heh heh, "ironic" because I want to distribute
the final code for free, but I just can't get the spare time to program.
I need to have proof of paying, and hence ownership. Thanks ...

No, my cousin Sally lives in Chicago, but she's always in CA when we
go there.

Dorr, MI. I have another sister in Rock Island IL. Chicago is
conveniently located for all 7 of us. One sister flies in from FL, and
this year, my twin brothers are both flying in from DC. (Usually they
drive in from Detroit and have Christmas with my sister in Dorr.)

Kohl's has good sales. I bought a new vacuum cleaner for 35% off--it
comes with a $30 rebate, too.

Victory in Takoma Park!

Last night, Takoma Park, Maryland, became the latest community to say
that
its citizens will not accept the so-called USA PATRIOT Act and other
intrusive new domestic spying and harassment laws pushed by the Bush
Administration. Some 11 communities have already taken such action and
dozens more are considering similar initiatives.

The Takoma Park resolution, which was adopted unanimously, calls for the
repeal of all federal and state legislation that violates fundamental
rights and liberties and specifically instructs local law enforcement to
"refrain from participating in enforcement of federal immigration laws."
It
also instructs state and federal officials to provide details on the
extent
of electronic surveillance and the infiltration of political and
religious
activities in Takoma Park.

As part of its Safe and Free Campaign, the ACLU is joining this
grassroots
movement to pass local resolutions protesting the new federal laws and
reasserting constitutional rights. You can make a difference: support
the
passage of a resolution in your community! To find out how to get more
involved, send an email to: field@dcaclu.org.

Because it sounded like, from the  "Chicago is conveniently located for all
7 of us" that you'd be meeting in Chicago.

Bet that'll be as useful and successful as the actions in places like
The Free State of Berkeley.

Obviously, since they don't want immigration laws enforced, they don't
live in an agricultural belt.  Or else they want to keep all their
paid-under-the-table illegal household help.

One of my brothers is driving us to Chicago on the 26th, and I will
meet up with the Tush-man on either the 26th or the 27th. I'm also
meeting up with Homemaker J from the meno newsgroup. No plans to see
Silverman. We're going to see "Sunday in the Park with George" the
evening of the 26th. The 27th, we'll go for breakfast, do something
educational, have lunch, and split up. We will either drive back with
my brother (though it will be crowded) or train it back. I return on
the 27th.

Alec, I tried to spare you this, really, I did.

Well, it was not pie crust. It was dumplings, soft-ish. Maybe some egg
as well? Wish Gram had left a recipe book, but all of her recipes were

I may do that. Too much Ensure Plus leads to diarrhea. Must revert to

Secret radar technology research that will allow the biggest-ever
extension of 'Big Brother'-style surveillance in the UK is being funded
by the Government.

The radical new system, which has outraged civil liberties groups, uses
mobile phone masts to allow security authorities to watch vehicles and
individuals 'in real time' almost anywhere in Britain.

One of my favorite hotel dogs was a boxer named Brutus.  I can't
remember where that was.  It was sometime in the past few years.  He lay

Brutus.

I didn't interpret his "footie" to mean US football.  I thought he was
talking about  the football played in the rest of the world.  Isn't
there a team somewhere in England named the Reds?  Probably other places

Southwest goes to Boston, doesn't it?  After I pick up Alyce and Spyke
in Germantown, I could pick up JMW in Boston, and then we'd pick up B&L
in Portland.  This is going to be fun!  Maybe I should bring Spencer.
I'm visualizing this group inside my Echo.

You inspired me to look, and I was fascinated to find what appears to be
one of Spencer's little couch-and-chair-cover things suspended from the
wall behind the bed.  I couldn't see the picture clearly enough to tell
whether those were pawprint decorations, but the colors, size, etc.
looked right.  I'm talking about the picture beside the
"Zimmerausstattung" blurb.

I know for sure that dogs are allowed in Maine.  The old friends in
Winter Harbor with whom I'll probably stay (though I haven't warned them
yet) had a wonderful yellow lab the last time I visited them.  And if I
don't stay there, I will perhaps stay on the island with my Starkville
friends (as in I met them in Starkville thirty-plus years ago, but they
now live in BH).  They live on the mainland in winter but on their
island in summer.  And I know it's a dog-friendly island.  Spencer could
perhaps sniff the spoors of Gus from the summers he spent there and feel
<connected> since Gus and Bernard were very close friends.

Gus is the dog who moved in along with his human companion to dog/house
sit for me on two different occasions, one fairly lengthy.  And I kept
Gus on various occasions when his human companion went to Dallas to
visit her fiance.  I loved those two-dog winter nights.  Gus and Bernard
were both great snugglers.  I really wanted to take Gus when she had to
give him up upon moving to Dallas, but Gus and Henry didn't get along.
And I knew that would be a major problem since Bernard and I regularly
visited Jackson, home of Henry.  (Henry came to visit Starkville to meet
Gus.  Henry attacked Gus, and Bernardykins leaped in to defend Gus,
which I thought was sweet.)

Anyway, I remember that day at lunch when Ginny Blaney said they were
looking for a dog.  I mentioned Gus, and she said, "How long are his
legs?"  That gave me pause -- both in describing his legs and in
wondering what the right answer would be.  She then went on to say that
he would be spending summers on the island in Maine, which was rocky --
that a dog with very short legs would have problems.  End of the story
is that they did adopt Gus, and he lived a long and happy life, spending
winters here and summers or at least parts of summers on the island in
the BH vicinity.  He did get lost once somewhere around Washington, DC,
where they had stopped for the night.  And he wasn't wearing a collar.
Everybody was in a panic.  But somehow he was gotten back to them after
he wandered into a bank.

But Spencer is not likely to travel to Maine.  He will instead stay at
Furrbabies.

You are correct.  Spaetzel is made with just flour and water.  Maybe a
little salt and egg.  I only made it once and it sucked.  My mother made it
fairly well.

Either of those would work fine.  Both are good-vibe places:  Providence
because of Clambake and TheParty(tm) and because we could hang out with
lovejudith and Paul, Manchester because I'd have fond memories of
SnowBash.  I did note, however, that it took the luggage forever and
ever and ever to get off the plane in Manchester.  Then again, one of
the few places I've had temporarily lost luggage in my life was
Providence.

Anyway, I hereby volunteer to pick you up in either of the above
places.  I vote for Providence since I had already been assuming I'd
stop there and probably spend a night with j&p.  I haven't warned them
yet either.  From the way I've been talking y'all probably think that I
think nothing of just landing on doorsteps and expecting to spend the
night.  That's actually far, far from true.  I almost never invite
myself to stay with anybody.  The exceptions are very close friends,
which my friends in WH and j&p are.

As far as I know, there is no present law or regulation prohibiting canines

And don't forget how appalled you were at the "whiteness" of
Manchester.  Of course, Maine is even more so.  That might be changing,
though, with the arrival of all the Somalis.  Even here in Bar Harbor,
where the Somalis are unlikely to come because of the lack of affordable
housing, I've noticed a greater diversity.  Just this morning I saw two
black men and one Hispanic.  One of the black men runs my new favorite
coffee shop.  The other was crossing Cottage Street carrying a pumpkin
while waving at a passing car and laughing to someone on the other side of
the street.  The Hispanic came into the coffee shop for coffee while I was
getting my chai latte.

It's rare, but it happens.  The placenta just latches onto a surface inside
the abdomen.  It's very risky for the mum because there's a good chance the
placenta will separate from its mooring and cause severe internal bleeding.

And of course, the baby's not coming out without a C-section.

    "Meine Kampf" is full of them, just as OBL's declaration of war
against us in 1996 was.
    Kristallnacht leads one to believe that it would have been many, if
not all.

    No.

    We were doing almost everything we could to ensure it.  Escorting
British convoys, and having one destroyer damaged and another sunk by
U-boats, not to mention Lend-Lease.   (Or "Lease-Lend", if you're of a
Britannic bent.)  It was a great relief to FDR when Germany declared war
on *us*.  We were prodding them by almost every means possible to goad us
to war.  Japan was an afterthought, and for most of the war remained so.

    Arguments are still raging on either sides.  I have a book in my
possesion where the author states, in 1940 (!), that there will be a war
between Japan, Germany, and the US. The only places he slips up is that
Japan will attack the Panama Canal because Pearl Harbor is too well
defended, and that the participation of Italy is iffy.

is sometimes wonderful. I saw my surgeon today. He has removed all
bandages (saying to use a compression wrap only when the knee is sore, and
only if I want to), and I am free to shower, to swim, to do any exercise I
want to - he said the knee will tell me when I am doing too much. He
promises that all pain will be gone in a matter of weeks.

Tonight, I went to choir rehearsal (we're doing Faure's Requiem on
Sunday), and I will not have to use crutches on Sunday. I will use them
as long as they are helpful, but they are not necessary.

They're putting in a Kohl's in the former Bradlees across the street. I
still miss Bradlees. Now that Ames has died, Kohl's is the only thing we

I think they gave me a senior citizens discount. I don't think it's a
great store, but this vacuum cleaner was a good buy.

Have you met Wild Al ftf?  I can imagine him as disruptive only in a
situation where it would be a disruption to have a delightful person in
the midst of a bunch of bores, which situation is not easy to imagine
with Wordslers.  Wild Al is a pleasure to be around, as is the rest of
his family.  (I haven't met Sherm yet, of course, but am guessing that
he is too since all the Wildfolk are.)

And Wild Al probably wouldn't eat your cats, which Spencer might if he
actually came to your house.  But the fest itself is to be in public
space, right?  Are dogs allowed?  That question is only out of general
curiosity.  Spencer will be celebrating the 4th at Furrbabies, where I
think they do some kind of patriotic dog event.

Have any of you seen a movie called "The Stepfather"?  Did they not have
911 when it was made?  If not 911, couldn't the mother or daughter have
called the regular police number?  Well, the mother was languishing in
the basement, but the daughter instead of scratching her head and
roaming around might have picked up a telephone, mightn't she have?

Just as I assume that it is Spencer's right to be in his own home and
that visitors who don't like that shouldn't come, so I assume that
Spencer should not go bopping into somebody else's house unless he is
clearly and specifically invited.  The only houses he has ever visited
have been my mother's house and a house in Columbus where a colleague
invited him for a "play date" with their dog one day a couple of years
ago.

As I said earlier, I consider that the default.  Somebody who doesn't
want to party with dogs, whether from general dislike or from allergies,
should inquire.  Ditto xmas trees.  Some people are allergic to them,
but I consider them the default at xmas parties.  The allergic person
should inquire.  It's not up to the hostess, imho, to warn all guests
that there will be a xmas tree present.  Ditto perfume.  Etc. etc.

Providence (or rather Warwick - the actual town) is about 20-30 minutes

I don't remember being appalled by it.  It's not the only white place
I've ever been in my life.  Now that you've mentioned it, I do remember
when we were standing there by the luggage carousel for eons that I
looked around and said something about how white the population was.  At
first I couldn't figure out what was odd about the setting, iirc, but
then I realized it was a color thing.  Iow, I found it odd but not
necessarily <appalling>.

        Last year I remember handling some merchandise that had
Bradlees tags on it -- Kohl's  must have picked up some of
their inventory when they went under.

        Karen, watch the Kohl's ads for the next couple of weeks and
keep your receipt.  The 35% discount is a relatively low
one, and it may go 50% soon (there's a discount formula the
store follows) -- you can take the receipt back and get the
difference.

In RI, 95 is littered with cams and the DOT has a map with clickable
cameras so you can check the traffic all around the area.  They are
starting with the higher traffic areas first.  I think eventually they'll
be able to track anyone at least while on the road.

I see where these mobile tower things could have a farther reach and be
more invasive.

Thanks! I generally ignore their ads, but my vacuum cleaner is almost
as old as you are, and 20% off seemed like worth investigating. So I
was impressed by the 35%. (Millipedes seem to delight crawling into my
house and dying in the corners, and my other vacuum is only good for
the middle of the carpet.

A lot of people thought in 1938 that there would be war; that's one
reason they were so jumpy at the War of the Worlds broadcast.
Cite:  Howard Koch's book on the broadcast (he was one of the
authors of the radioplay).  I wish I still had my copy of that book;
it was one of the ones I lost in the move from Akron to here.

There's a Kenmore that's more highly rated in Consumer Reports, but
there's no way I'm going to Sears.

Kenmore (Sears) Progressive with Direct Drive 31912 is the highest
rated vacuum cleaner. It's easier to use and less noisy than the one I
bought, but not as good at cleaning.

Hey, that's not funny.  Especially the hangover bit.  My powerful Dirt
Devil upright purchased at Sam's Club died a couple of weeks ago.  I took
off my ear protectors and jumped with joy.  The thing was so noisy that if
I happened to lean over to pick something off the rug while it was running,
the noise was physically painful.  No hangover needed.  That's why I bought
the ear protectors.  Now that it has died I went to a local hardware store,
plugged in their Eureka to listen for myself before purchase, and found it
almost silent in comparison.  I bought it.  It does not have the
suction.  But I don't care.  I may be able to continue to hear into my 90s.

Maybe I've got this all wrong, never having been at the annual fest.  Would
you consider the above a wordsler fest when it is done in the company of
about 500,000 tourists?

I quote:

Friday, July 4th. Meebers will be on their own to celebrate an
old-fashioned, small town holiday in Bar Harbor, from the blueberry pancake
breakfast on the Athletic Field through the fireworks over the Frenchman
Bay. The breakfast is held on the village athletic field and runs from six
a.m. until around nine. The parade stages at the same athletic field,
begins at 10, and moves through the village streets. This parade has
everything from decorated tricycles to rescue greyhound dogs to all the
fire departments of the island to Scottish pipers to the little racing cars
driven by overweight Shriners.

After the parade, a lobster and mussel dinner is available at the site of
the blueberry pancake feast. Throughout the day and evening, there is music
at the Village Green and in Agamont Park. There is face painting at the
athletic field and an antique show across the street. Lots of activity.
Fireworks, weather permitting, are set off over the Bay around nine p.m.
Fog often forces the fireworks to be postponed until the next night.
Perhaps Bonnie or Clyde can be persuaded to lead a hike somewhere in Acadia
National Park that afternoon. For those meebers who would rather drink and
talk, there will be an open house all day at the Voigtlander home. No meals
will be served however. Munchies and local microbrews will be available.

Saturday, July 5th. The official fest day. A meal will be served at the
Voigtlander house, probably midday, probably something simple on the grill.
Again meebers are invited to hang out during the day at Casa Voigtlander.
Again Clyde or Bonnie might be persuaded to lead a hike. We will certainly
be available for advice on the many things to do in town: whale watching,
sailing excursions, rental bikes, kayak tours, museums, driving the Park
Loop Road, etc.

I talked to *30* parents last night.  Unbelievable.  Most of
the parents were great -- a couple of them gave me a good
indication why their kid is annoying and obnoxious :).  So
many of the parents went to school at WGHS -- it's a tight
community -- everybody knows everybody.  I ran into Eamonn,
my po professor from last spring -- he's got two kids in the
school (I don't have them).  And I saw two local TV
celebrities (don't have their kids either -- those are
gifted program kids and I don't do gifted).

Today, I'm wiped.  I planned a pretty light day for myself,
but still.  I got to school yesterday at 7:00am and left at
8:30pm.  Next year I'll plan videos.  Sheesh, when I went to
school we didn't have VCR's -- how did those teachers
survive :).

We've had both kinds of fests -- some in private space, some in public
space.

I started listening to Rush of Blood to the Head a couple of days ago and I
have been thinking that it is the first album I've heard in years where the
radio hit is the weakest tune on the disc. The songs seem to flow logically
from one to the next, not the way Sinatra did on Songs from the September of
My Life (hit-over-the-head obviousness), but in a more musical
rising-and-falling way, if that means anything. The last track, Amsterdam,
is really nice and gives the album a period at the end of the sentence.
There's another tune mid-disc whose name escapes me at the moment that
starts out simple and suddenly adds about 5 layers of complexity that I
really enjoyed. Some of the music is dead rip offs of Beatles and Oasis
tunes, but heck, I like both of those groups, so it's all good.

Got two discs by White Stripes coming from Amazon in a few days.

Dogs are permitted in most outdoor spaces in Bar Harbor, except for the
village green.  There is a leash law in the village as well as in ANP; it
is enforced in both places.  As for Spencer at the two public food events
(pancakes; lobster), it will be crowded with people sitting around and
eating or standing in line waiting to get their---not a good place for a
dog other than a seeing-eye dog.

My sister has the lard dumpling recipe, and here it is:

Melt 1/2 cup lard (or margarine) and thoroughly blend in 1 cup flour
while on the burner. Slowly add boiling water, stirring until dough lets
go from pan.  (I do not know how much water or what kind of pan - these
are her words.)
Cool just slightly.  Add three eggs, beating in one at a time with spoon
until smooth.   This is the dough.
Drop by spoonfuls into boiling salted water.  Simmer (Don't boil) until
they rise to the top.  Move to plate to drain.
To heat, put on a plate on top of the soup pot and steam.

Please describe one that was in a public space.  What kind of public

I understood - just making a reference to a time in my life when I thought I was living
out some lesbian karma because every woman I fell in love with ended up with a
woman (that was when I decided to start dating men)

Congratulations on surviving Parents' Night.
When my kids were in school I always looked forward to the event. A highlight for me
was sitting quietly in my child's seat and looking around so I could put in context the
stories they told me about classroom events.  Do other parents do that?

How nice that you'll be able to perform uncrutched!  I love the Faure - have sung it

Sanctus with its modulating dialogue between the men's and women's voices.

I've never seen this word used as a plural before.  Am I the only one who would have
said  "I'll bring the kibble"  ?

Nor did I, obviously, since I said he's not in USA.  I assumed he
meant "football" in the non-USA sense, i.e. "soccer".

Actually not.  The SuperBowl is seen world wide by vast numbers, as an
example.  Look at all the NFL shirts you see worn in other countries.

And why is it any different from a significant number of Americans
caring about World Cup, UK Rugby, etc, etc.   I know that you don't
get those cable channels, but those things are on....and watched.

I'm not saying that is WHY we went to war with Germany.  We waited so
long because of all the pacifist idiots here and elsewhere.  I seem to
remember someone (not in US) saying "Peace in Our Time".  Yeah.  Look
where it got him/them.  There were vast numbers of isolationists in
the USA until Pearl Harbor.

In Boise many of the major, accident prone intersections have cams on
them. They help monitor traffic, but also automatically snap a pix of
anyone running a red light.  Tickets are issued.  This is hardly
unique or rocket science, and you can be sure it occurs many other
places.

Come to our library.  We have video cam on the exit, shoots a still
every 0.4 seconds.  Have caught two bad guys with it in the six months
we've had it.  One a serial public masturbator, another our latest
foot fondler/licker.

I would have said that.  I think of it as a plural noun.  But then you and
I can think of it any way we want and it doesn't make it so.   ;-)   Or
maybe not.  In language use, if enough people make the same error, it
becomes part of the language.  I learned that on this service.

Spaetle is/are like noodles to me. I think it is just the shape and size

PRB> latest?   Is foot fondling a common thing in Idaho?

Well, from what I've seen on porn sites, it is more common than I'd
expect in all sorts of places.  But so are lots of other activities
that are <strange> to me.  (And, no, don't mean Verdant-style
activities, but those involving non-humans, waste products, etc.)

We've had a ton of searches done on our public machines for terms like
stockings, nylons, feet, and related terms, in various combinations.
And the foot guys have crawled around under tables or study carrels,
find a woman, preferably who has kicked her shoes off for comfort, and
then fondle, caress, lick, kiss her foot/feet.  Naturally this pisses
them off and they scream, complain, etc.  (Well, if any of them have
sat there and enjoyed it, we've not heard about it.....and I hope they
got a room)

I have the Google taskbar on my Internet Explorer.  When you go in that

I have no doubt that foot fetish is popular, but I have just never heard of any similar

There are those who say size is everything.  There are also those who
say that anything more than a mouthful is wasted.

Enjoyed the article.  It  brought back old times.  I used
to follow this stuff pretty closely during those years.
Kept a folder of clippings , which I've since destroyed.

The thing most interesting to me in the article was
the paragraph about Podesta.  I hope we hear more
about that.  It is the Information Age, after all, and
maybe we are grown up enough to be able to
"take" a little info on such phenomena.

Another one bites the dust...

King of Rock is one of my all-time faves. (Do you know
this one, AnnB? It's old, 1986 or so.)

Maybe you keep your library colder? Yale kept Sterling Library at 60
degrees--everyone kept all their clothes on during the winter.

    And the next time you see that newsreel clip from the 1940 campaign
showing FDR pledging to "never, ever, send your boys to fight in a foreign
war!" that he was simultaneously moving heaven and earth behind the scenes to
put the US industial base on a war footing.  Thank God.

I wish that our local politicians were at least 1/10th as interesting
or articulate at the West Wing guys instead of the slimeballs they
are. I wish we could just vacate the position of governor for a year

And I'm really pleased to see the guy from Sports Night--I liked him a

This from a bookseller in Hawaii. Hard to believe. Can it be true. No
other president ever...?

"Bill Clinton came to Maui yesterday (for about 15 minutes) and even
though you think you're blasé and jaded about these things, it really
was quite exciting.

"No US president that anyone could remember ever came here before, for
any reason."

FDR was the first in 1934 (although of course Hawaii wasn't US back then)

Clinton: August 1995 (for 50th anniversary of V-J day)
Reagan: April 26, 1986

Clinton made his 7th visit in November 2000, laying over for two days on
his way to Asia.

ObQuayle, during a visit to Hawaii in 1989: "Hawaii has always been a very
pivotal role in the Pacific. It is in the Pacific. It is a part of the
United States that is an island that is right here."

Didn't look for more.

Speaking of Hawaii (kind of), I'm currently stuck on the soundtrack from
Lilo & Stitch.  It's got an enchanting adaptation of a traditional Hawaiian
chant done with lush but not overbearing production, He Mele No Lilo
<http://www.lightfantastic.org/imr/extras/av/hemelenolilo.html>.

The A*Teens, Wynona, and of course Elvis, aren't bad either.  Elvis is
still electrifying; one hears so many little poorly-done pop culture
references to his songs that's it's a bit startling to hear the real thing
and remember how good it is.

And perhaps a guest might arrive wearing a feather boa. Who would know
in advance? Better include a dress code in the invitation: No wool, no
latex, no fur, no silk, and no <anything> that may affect an allergic
person. Or perhaps a special invitation:

Hi!
I'm having a great party on Saturday. But I am not inviting you if you
are allergic to anything at all.

I really don't know offhand, but it could be true of Maui,
particularly when qualified with the phrase
"No US president that anyone could remember. . . . "

Even FDR seems not to have gone to Maui in 1934 when he had his own
ship to take him wherever he wanted to go.

Maybe she meant Maui specifically? Maybe the presidents all went
elsewhere? Or maybe no one she knows can remember back as far as 2000!

Glad to have this positive report. But it reminds me, is Theo off with
leg pains again? It's been a few days since we've heard from her.

Yes - well, depending on how you define <full> - there are about 20
people in the orchestra - maybe a few more.

We sing the various sections at appropriate times in the service, so that
it goes throughout the service.

We in the choir rehearsed with the orchestra last night, will rehearse
alone on Sat.

I haven't lived in India for 11 years, but I never followed

With an apartment building etc, maybe there is a reason for "silent"
devices. If you live in your own house, earplugs are the way to go.

No.  No experience, at least, that I
could directly tie to a UFO or alien
ship.  I just always wished that I would
see such a thing.

Gene saw something strange in the air
once, but not on the ground.  And he's
a non-believer in most unproven theories.
During the years that I did a lot of air
travel, I more than once sat with a pilot
who, upon questioning, admitted he had
seen strange things in the air that were
not planes.

Once someone offered to drive me to a Mets-Cubs game in NY, and she
asked that I not wear perfume in her car. Not that I used it very often,
and especially not to ball games. That is my only brush with
allergen-sensitivity and social occasions.

Ken is allergic to cats, so I do not have cats. But that is a different
matter entirely.

Their 15 minutes of fame?

I wonder where he went when he
left there?  How could anyone stay
in Maui for 15 minutes?  They would
have to be insane.

I know both sides raise loads of cash with the party in power
getting the lion's share but I sure didn't expect this much
discrepancy. A good candidate for comparison on the other
side would be Gray Davis, I suppose, but the article didn't
have numbers for California.

http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/articles/A43415-2002Oct30.html

Excerpts:

The pattern of corporate giving in Florida is striking. The Alliance
for Quality Nursing Home Care, a coalition of large nursing home
operators, has given $300,000 to the GOP and $50,000 to the
Democrats, according to campaign finance reports.

The Associated Industries Insurance Company gave the GOP $185,000
and none to Democrats;
AT&T gave the Republican Party $325,000 and Democrats $130,000;
Disney Worldwide Services donated $210,000 to the GOP, $75,000 to Democrats;
BellSouth gave $310,000 to Republicans, $60,000 to Democrats;
Blue Cross-Blue Shield, $125,000 for the GOP, $15,000 for Democrats;
the Florida Medical PAC, $260,000 for the GOP, $15,000 for Democrats.

Florida's Republican Party, fortified by Gov. Jeb Bush's aggressive
fundraising strategy, has collected three times more money from
state contractors and state-regulated industries than has the
Democratic Party, boosting Bush's reelection bid and other
GOP campaigns for Tuesday's elections.

    Until recently the "Coin-operated Governor"'s campaign records were sealed
under a court order, but he's long had a reputation as a fund-raiser par

Ok, let me trace the fests in my memory:

'91 Lenny's BBQ -- private (Lenny's house)
'92 Clambake -- private (Brown property reserved for the event)
'93 Salmonbake -- public park(?) -- or was it the Reed campus?
'94 GoatRoast -- private (home of FOWLs)
'95 Wordstock -- private (Neal's farm)
'96 Torondezvous -- college campus -- did we reserve the space or just
take it over?
'97 Missionfest -- I missed it but think it was private (Elwood's
house?)
'98 Slugfest -- I missed it but think it was private (Nipper's house?)
'99 Block Island -- public (drinks/snacks on the inn porch, meal in a
restaurant)
'00 Wordquake -- public restaurant (brewery?), but we had our own room
'01 Jigglefest -- private (Jiggleview)
'02 ?

(Obviously I'm using "public" in the broad sense of meaning other people
might be there -- like restaurants or campuses etc.)

Ah, I guess he'll just have to stay in your house with your cats for
that period of time.  That means that for the next day's event, we can
eat roasted feline garnished with dog eyes.

I don't know how many foreigners follow rugby, but I see a big
difference between international interest in a sport played in only a
couple of countries and in a sport played throughout the world and
culminating in the world's biggest sports event every summer.

Our local paper tonight tells of a judge
putting one of our new residents in jail
for 90 days because he's been propositioning
the local women on the street and in stores,
offering money for sexual contact and
intercourse.  His name is Obang Ajaak
Cham.  Anyone know what country he
may be from?

I certainly don't have a list, mental or physical, of all of the

Well, I don't have to do any research to say that I have known of more
males called Red than females called Red.  Perhaps that contributed to
my assumption.

What are you, Red, a he or a she?

Are you sure it's always the party currently in power that gets the

You might occasionally be called "Red," but I bet it would never <stick>
the way it sometimes sticks with males.  It sometimes becomes their
usual name.  I can't remember knowing any female that that's been true
of.  (That, of course, doesn't mean that a female might not choose to
sign her e-mail as "Red."  But I do think it may be a contributing
factor to our assumption.)

Oh, yes? The paper says something about a political candidate. Perhaps
that is the husband who was almost killed, though. I never saw the

That was in my mind also when Bonniemae first asked why I assumed Red

The package says "Kibbles 'n Bits." Only one apostrophe for some reason.
I happen to have a bag of it here. For Spike's treats only. Too

so that they may experiment with him.

Spencer is of course staying at home (in the sense of "home" meaning the
general vicinity).  I plan to make his Furrbabies reservations very
early since they book up early for holiday periods.  I didn't even take
Spencer to Jigglefest, where he was very clearly invited and where he
would have fit in and not been a problem and where the fest destination
was only a two-day drive.

Yes, that's what I was referring to.  When I wrote that, I started
thinking that it was wrong -- that it wasn't every year.  (I'm not a
follower of it personally, but I still understand that it's presumably
the world's <biggest> -- as in considered most important by most people
-- sports event.)

Looking back, I wonder how we could dance so jollily at all those
fraternity and sorority dances in college when The Dog Lab Band played.
They were regulars for Millsaps parties.  Their day jobs were supposedly

Make sure you give it a listen before plonking down $17.98.
It's very different from ColdPlay or Beck (shudder, what on
earth possessed you to buy Sea Change?!).

I'm surprised (and pleased) at how well King of Rock (and
the previous album, Run D.M.C) have aged. imo.

The 'n is correct.  I knew that even when I wrote "and" -- it just
seemed somehow simpler to write "and."  But of all the bags of Kibbles
'n Bits I've bought through the years, I've never seen a missing s on
Kibbles.

Following up my own post, I just remembered something. I'm
not sure of this -didn't Dubya raise more money than Gore
during the last presidential campaign. That would mean my
original guess was incorrect. But as I said I'm not sure who
raised more money in 2000 ...

This time around, Dubya is clearly ahead - $110 million to $70 million.

An attachment called (WORM_KLEZ.H) in an email that appears

contained the virus (WORM_KLEZ.H), which has been deleted.

If you do not believe you were the actual sender, the Klez virus is
likely to be the culprit. The Klez virus works by forging the 'From'
address inside the virus infected email, which means you can receive a
virus alert from Xtra even if you are not necessarily the actual sender.

Yes.  I thought I knew ways around that, but actually I also know
they tailor my ads based on IP address.  Do you know how to get

It makes assumptions based on the IP address your request comes from.

If you're using a proxy server in a different country, either intentionally

logo if you live in France, or a Holi logo if you live in India.

I don't have any figures at all, and perhaps my impression is skewed by
knowing that in our state campaigns (at least in relatively recent
history) the Republicans always have at least quadruple the campaign
money that the Democrats have, regardless of who's the incumbent.  I saw
the figures not long ago for the candidates for my Congressional
district (both of them incumbents -- they're running against each other
now because of redistricting -- loss of a seat) and was appalled at the
discrepancy in funds.  I didn't need to see the figures to know which
one obviously had tons of money.  I'm riddled every day with obnoxious
flyers from him in my mailbox, he has gigantic, expensive signs
everywhere, etc. etc.  I already didn't like him, but his flyers,
showing horrible pictures of his opponent and distorting the truth about
him to the point of being very, very close to outright lies have made me
dislike him to the extreme.  He (Chip Pickering) is a twirpy Trent Lott
clone who is even more disgusting than The Evil One.  Polls show that
he's probably going to win, though.

But I digress.  Surely there are some online figures for fund-raising by
national party, aren't there?  I bet the Republicans have been ahead in
it for a good while now.  Big money interests are willing to spend some
of their big money to elect people who they believe will be biased
toward big money interests.

We could sit in front (or would it be behind?) B&C's front window and

I will miss her because I found her one of the most interesting of the
group.  I didn't know exactly what it was they had against the contender
for ousting since I had hardly been aware of her existence at all.  I
find the one who survived bland and unnoticeable.

I didn't like her.  Because I'm up early this morning, I ought to go watch
her on CBS.  But I hate the morning news shows.  I also hate the evening
news shows for that matter.  I don't like getting my information nicely
packaged in a bite of condensed crap sandwiched between commercials.

In any case, now that we are down to nine folks, who do you think will
win??  I think the big black guy has got a good chance.

I didn't like all the eye rolling and disgusted looks she gave the others
for the last how many weeks.  Yeah, maybe it's true that she was singled
out and disliked.  That guy talking about her eating with her fingers was
stupid.  He was easily offended, I guess.  But I just didn't like her.  She
seemed like she had an above-it-all attitude and was a bit of a whiner.  I
realize of course that we only saw what they chose to show us.

>What is the Suberbowl?

Once upon a time in America, there was one professional league of football
(American, not association) teams.  This league, the National Football
League (NFL) annually held a championship game.  After at least one
unsuccessful attempt to establish a competing league, a second league was
formed, the American Football League (AFL).  The AFL had sufficient
financial backing and revenue (especially from TV) that it was able to
compete with the NFL in the signing of the top collegiate football players,
hire some of the better coaches, and in a relatively short time, as
marketing types would say, "field a product" that was pretty much on a par
with the NFL.  The AFL held its own championship game.  After a few years
of rather bitter warfare over the signing of prospects, the two leagues
agreed to merge under the banner of "NFL"; the two former leagues (with
some adjustment of who belonged to which) became "conferences"---The NFC
and AFC.  As part of the merger agreement, each conference would hold its
own playoffs and championship game; the two winners then would meet (after
a suitable period of media hype), in a game to determine the overall
champion.  This ultimate game was dubbed The Superbowl---as I recall,
initially by some sports reporter.  The name caught on; each successive
Superbowl is identified by the appropriate Roman numeral.  We now are
somewhere in the late XXXs, I think; I get bored trying to keep track of
the Vs and Is.

To many purists, the really good games in terms of excitement, level of
play, and competitiveness are the semifinal and final games of the
conference championship series; the Superbowl is a media extravaganza,
nowadays usually played at one of a half-dozen or so indoor stadiums in
large metropolitan areas.

It wasn't the fingers, it wasn't that she ate the heart and neck.

I agree. I'm "Red" in my immediate family only. Two of my sisters and an
uncle almost exclusively call me "Red" and variations thereof. Which is
actually kinda funny, since most people don't even consider my hair to be
red anymore.

>of.  (That, of course, doesn't mean that a female might not choose to

I wanted to find a picture of the Dr. Seuss (completely androgynous) "Red in
Bed" but there doesn't appear to be a picture on the web. Lots of porn sites
though, the red in question being female.

Phyllis hasn't been with us for a while. There were only a couple of posts
after her father died.  Maybe she ran off with Jim.

I think it'll be either Ted or Brian. There don't appear to be many
alliances formed. Penny and Erin, and I guess along tribal lines they may be
allied. But I think Ted and Brian have the only stated "alliance" and that
they are both fairly strong and outwardly likeable. My money's on Ted.

I hadn't paid her much attention before tonight, either.  I'm beginning to
think that the editors of the show may have been indulging in a little
misdirection with regard to her.

Her smile afterwards was not a smile of relief.  It was the smile of a
bully who has just inflicted grievous harm on someone else.

Is there any way having not known a Mandar (that I remember) to know that --
e.g. are all Indian "-ar" names male? Do female names tend to end in vowels?

It's not been a great apple year. I can't believe I went half my life having
never eaten a Macoun apple, though. They are the best. And half Macoun, half
Granny Smith is the perfect apple pie combo.

>Your socks are undoubtedly waiting for you down the street in your mailbox.

Oh yuck, does she live in one of those mid-80's neighborhoods where they
installed cluster boxes? I am so glad they've stopped doing that. Back in
the mid-80's while that cluster box nonsense was going on in the newly-built
neighborhoods, they sent a letter around neighborhoods like ours to notify
us that after a certain date, they would no longer deliver mail to boxes
attached to houses---they would only deliver boxes on a pole at the curb of
your property. A few stalwarts refused to install curb boxes, and what
happened to them? Absolutely nothing. They still get their mail every day,
in the same box that was installed on the house when it was built in the
40's.

There were some things about her I didn't like.  She seemed at times to
consider herself <above> everybody else.  These times were when she was
talking to us, not to the others.  But perhaps the others caught those
vibes also.  Still, she was more interesting to me than the bland
look-alikes whose names I can't remember.

Yes, he's a contender I'd say.  But near the end somebody might want to
oust him because he's too much of a contender.  What about the
policeman?  I don't think the short man (Walt?) is likely to last till
the final rounds.  Nor the older woman.  I don't know about the various
Bambis.  They're all a glob in my mind.  Jake seems to be getting along
pretty well.  He may last.  And then there's the used-car salesman who
got drunk.  He also seems to be getting along well.

But remember the time she said something like she knew the puzzle answer
in a flash but didn't share her knowledge.  I can't remember the details
-- like why she didn't want to help.  I do remember her saying that she
and somebody else (can't remember who) could have solved it in an

>How can you have two front yards? Does your house have two fronts?
>Karen

Yes, the house has two fronts.  And the property runs between two
streets.  The true front of the house faces Forest Street.  The lilacs are
there and the yard isn't very deep at all.  The sidewalk runs up to the
front door.   The false front of the house is where the driveway is and the
deck.  It fronts on Pine Street.  There is a deeper yard there.  I'll
probably set up a food table under the white pine tree.  The yard is deeper
on this side.

Political pollsters and the like often walk the neighborhood and come to
both our front door and our back door.  From the front the house looks like
a typical Cape Cod.  From the back the house looks more modern.  To the
casual observer the house really does look quite different, like two
different houses.  The neighborhood kids know it is one house and only come
to the front to solicit for bottles, candy-selling, Halloween, etc.

"Other countries" doesn't have to mean Europe.  I'd guess that more

No, you're getting list characters mixed up.  I'm the one who doesn't

So far.  There is a rumor that the bank has a buyer for the former
greenhouse property, that everything now on the property will be removed,
and four houses will be built there.  No idea yet just how the property
will be divided.  The same rumor has work (at least, demolition) to begin
yet this fall.

I presume that you are not commuting to Norwich, VT for it.

Their store in Norwich is very nice.  Interestingly, I can buy KA flour
(regular, unbleached) more cheaply in Ellsworth than at their store.  I

Yeah---sort of a warped, not-quite-complete infinity symbol.  We call it
the Bar Harbor Triangle.  The entrance from the highway (Eagle Lake
Road--233) is Forest
Street.  Then at the split (as you enter from 233), Forest St. continues to
the left; the right leg becomes Pine St.  Pine St. also extends back from
the split to curve around and finally hit Eagle Lake road a bit further up
the hill---that intersection is less apparent from 233. Somewhere at the
large end of the loop, Pine becomes Forest and vice-versa.  It's always fun
to field the confused inquirys from UPS and other delivery types.

Mapquest actually has it wrong. We live in the middle of the infinity
symbol, where the figure eight intersects.  They have the red star right on
Smitty's house instead of ours.   Mapsonus has it right.

Mom bought me an LE flannel shirt -- said it was marked way
down, and I know why -- the colors are hideous.  It has that
fabulous shade of prison jumpsuit orange in it.  Since that
color happens to be that of Webster Groves High, where we
buy all the clothing in that color *so you don't have to*,
it works out for me. (Yes, the hallways can be a fashion
horror show on home game days.)  I love LE flannel because
it feels so wonderful.

Today is a beautiful cold fall day.  I stepped out this
morning to deliver Ana to school and I was overpowered by
that wonderful spicey aroma of decaying leaves mixed with
somebody's wood smoke.  I was contemplating sleeping all day
today since I was exhausted to the point of weepiness
yesterday, but now I'm energized and I'm going to rake later
on.  I think the exhaustion was people overload, not
necessarily physical exhaustion, so being by myself all
morning is working wonders.

I am trying very hard to not eat so much of Ana's Halloween
candy that she'll notice when she gets home.

On a related note, Webster Groves's Turkey Day hoopla (it is
really called Turkey Day and functions as Homecoming for the
school) will be featured in Sports Illustrated the week
after Thanksgiving if anybody reads that publication.

This Diary-a brought to you by the letters "W", "G", the
number "1," and the color orange.

Good presumption! There's one in Austin, in an impossible location,

Stupid kids. They could get twice as much by going to both doors. They
could put on disguises over their disguises.

Not surprised that it's wrong. But living in the middle is even kewler.

I use ATT for my long distance @ 7 cents a minute. Ken is in California,
so I have been using it a lot, and he has been calling me collect from
his motel. Suddenly last night, I dialed California and got a recording
that I am not authorized to use my phone and to call 1-800-645-0005.
When I do that, there is a voice mail that says to put in the area code
and number from which I am calling. Well, I ain't agonna to that. The
phone company is on the case.
This is scary. I so depend on long distance for personal and business
use, but I am closed out unless I use Ken's phone, which is not so
handy, or else the phone line that I have the computer on. But neither
of those has my 7 cents plan.

There is a cheaper plan that Bonnie told me about. Can't think of the name
right now but you can sign up on line.  Maybe she can remember.

Yabbut, I have this one because it includes 7 cents to Canada (for when
Ken is up there). Of course, with them going to LA soon, I won't need
that. But right now, I want to be able to have my ATT. Ken can't call me
collect, and he needs to in order not to pay the motel surcharge.

He could get a prepaid calling card.  They've gotten more expensive, but
still probably cheaper than what the hotel charges for long distance.

I use USADatanet.  It does not require switching your long distance carrier because
they give you a local access number that gets you into the system.  I can call
anywhere in the Northeast for 10cents a minute up to a maximum of 99cents (i.e.
after 10 minutes the call is free).  Anywhere else in the US or Canada it's 10 cents a
minute with a max of 1.99  There is no monthly fee or connection charge or any
other hidden fee and they bill you.  I use it a lot and it has saved me a bundle.  If you
make short calls, it's not the answer, but if you talk for hours, it's a life saver.

I know you have to sort out your phone problem now but later check this out.

http://www.onesuite.com/


I have a local access number so I only pay 2.5 per minute instead of the 2.9

I think it expires if you don't use it up within a certain period of time
but you don't have to buy a bunch to start with.

Yes, coulda and shoulda. But he never intended to be needing it for two
weeks. He found it harder to rent an apartment than anticipated. THings
have changed in the San Fernando Valley real estate market since he left
in 1998.
In any case, he leaves tomorrow, and that will be the end of it.

Meanwhile, ATT Security called. It turns out that they cut me off
because, in their constant monitoring of accounts, they discerned this
unusual activity of a lot of collect calls. Instead of calling to ask me
about this, they simply blocked my account and sent me a letter, which I
will get next week sometime. They cut me off at 9:30 last night. I asked
why they didn't call and they said they are not allowed to call after 9
pm. The man said I should have dialed the 800 number. When I said I was
afraid to punch in my number, he said, "But it says that it is ATT
Security."
I told him that it says nothing at all about what it is, and told him to
try it himself. Anyway, they immediately reconnected me, but this is not
customer friendly.

My calls usually are short, because I am an e-mailer, not a
phone-talker. This was just an unusual situation because Ken was in LA
searching for an apartment for two weeks.

Btw, he uses that 10-10-220 or whatever it is for long chats to Quebec
and I think that is only 99 cents for long calls. We figure that with
his normal rate of 7 cents, the 99 cents becomes a bargain if he talks
for 15 minutes or more. No change to your long distance system for that
one either.

Subject: Nigerian scam
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii

Sender: owner-words-l@LISTSERV.UGA.EDU

Unbelievable story here. A bookseller (who is not at all bright, as I
knew before this happened) received an order for 12 copies of Black's
Law 7th edition from Nigeria. She doesn't have them. N.B. Everyone but
me has been besieged with orders for this title from Nigeria and it has
been discussed widely  on the Bookfinder Insider list to which she
subscribes.

En tout cas, instead of ignoring this obvious scam, she answered the
letter, said she didn't have the books, but would look for them from
other dealers. Duh.

And today she says,
"They have gone too far now. They faxed me  a "Notification of your
overdue contract payment" -- at 4:30 this morning -- and woke me up. I'm
going to forward everything to the feds. I got another of the usual scam
emails this morning,
which I usually just delete. But the fax machine is going too far. It
uses my paper and wakes me up."

Probably. But Macouns are much better than Galas. They are the perfect
apple. Crisp, snappy, not too sweet-not too tart, juicy. They taste like
Fall.

This is the time of the campaign when candidates here on MDI do their
house-to-house bit.  A candidate for state representative was just in the
neighborhood.  He bills himslef (this time around) as "Democratic ideas
from and INdependent Republican."  This somehow seems to rival the
"Compassionate Consumerism" or whatever of a couple of years ago.  Anyhow,
I saw him coming and so didn't answer the door.  He hit both front and
other front doors, leaving the same hang-on-the-doorhandle flyer with the
cutesy "Sorry I missed you.  Bob"

Right, Bob---you <are> sorry.  My guess is that you will lose once again.

Yes, that is right. I meant, but didn't explain well, that they figured
that if they were going to talk longer than 15 minutes, they might as
well talk 20. That it was cheaper to do that than to pay 16 x 7 to ATT.
So why don't you use that instead of the $1.99 one?

because I often talk for a couple hours

120 min @1.99 = roughly 1.7 cents per minute

99 cents is the maximum rate if I call anywhere in NY, New England, PA, DE, MD

1.99 is the maximum if I call anywhere else in the US or Canada

I suppose not, but I have so much else on my platter that I don't want
to clutter my head, especially because I so rarely make a long distance
call, and if I do, it doesn't last more than a minute or two.

That makes 57 degrees sound balmy.:)  (I'd feel better about it if a)
I could afford to heat my house and b) I could find my sweatshirt.

Well.

I just got back from voting. Texas has this <interesting> system of
early voting. Basically, voting starts two weeks before the election,
and stops the Friday before the Tuesday of the election. I decided to
vote early because that way, I could use the cool new machines instead
of the sucky pokey method. The new machines are very clear--there's a
pointing device, and you have to click Enter to vote.

I have never voted for so many Republicans and Libertarians in my
entire life.:(

The forecast here is for rain changing to snow this evening, perhaps some
accumulation.  It's drizzling right now.  The town public works people must

There are only a few races that I care about in this year's election.  I would be totally
thrilled to see Jeb lose in FL, I would be totally thrilled to see Fritz win in MN.
Locally, the only one I care about is seeing Bill Sanford lose(sorry Bonnie) in the
State Assembly race (redistricting has pitted him against a woman who is a personal
friend and a damned fine Representative).  There's obviously nothing I can do about
FL or MN, but I'll be out just after 6am next Tuesday pulling the lever under Joan's
name for sure.

It is the ability to be able to call a customer back, but which I seldom
have to do, and the ability to call a family member in an emergency
(which I pray does not happen). Dependence does not necessarily imply
frequency.

Last night on As It Happens they were talking about some poor fool who crossed the
line from Quebec into Vermont to buy gas (reported to be 15 metres over the line)
and got into big trouble with the INS for having a hunting rifle in his car.

Well, there are certain things that buying in large
quantities can get you busted.  Around here, it is the
ingredients for manufacturing methamphetamines (cold
medicine, plastic tubing, and ammonia, I think).  Speaking
of meth manufacturing, a kid disapeared at the beginning of
the month out in a rural area, and the search parties have
been shot at, etc. when they've come upon the meth camps out
in the woods.  That particular drug is rampant around here.

If I had any respect for him, I lost it with the way he has run this campaign.  All of his
ads have been aimed at showing his opponent as bad rather than showing himself
as being any good.  I really hate that.

Because there are a lot of slimy or unsuitable Democrats. Or both the

Eh, not so great.  Although tempted by the $30 to spend on
books if I spend $50 on the clothes site, I can't find what
I want (LE turtlenecks I was going to order anyway), the
site is clumsy to navigate, the clothing is full price (who
pays full price for clothing?), and half the stuff doesn't
even have a picture.

Well, evidently the PO has the same idea about my laziness because
they TOOK MY MAIL from me. I have to go to the PO. I decided to come
back and start the soup instead.

Is zucchini *and* spinach overkill?

A very good point, Marie. I don't know. Never thought about it.

The first is mostly true for IE names. As for the second point,
vowel-ending implies female much more than the other way round,
I think. I should be charging for all this high-quality info.

This may be what happened: Walmart employee is asked by foreign-
looking guys for playstations. He is feeling "non-specifically"
hostile for other reasons. He brings a couple of them in. They
ask him for more. He asks why. They say something lame. He says
he can only sell two at a time. They get "irate". He calls the
FBI.

This may have nothing to do with the "real" investigation, which
has apparently focused on less than a handful of suspects.

Not sure what any of this has to do with PATRIOT ...

Who said anything about the yard size?  In thinking of the <two-fronted>
houses I've known well, they've almost all had very big yards.  Nothing
narrow atall.  For one thing, lots of people buy two lots when they
decide to build a house -- side-by-side in some cases, back-to-back in
others.  By back-to-back I mean that one lot <faces> one street, the
other a different street.  Or sometimes houses exist before one of the
streets even existed.  Like somebody decides to sell off part of their
acreage for other houses to be built, before roads are necessarily
built.  One road goes in front of their house, another behind it.  In
some cases, of course, the yards are relatively small like when a house
is the last one on a corner that's the tip of a triangle.  Etc.

I bet they have an online edition.  Please remind us that week.

Speaking of online editions, I am upset with the Knoxville paper,
Bethany.  I was trying to find an obituary to find out what happened to
somebody, as in why she died, but found that except for a few famous
people the online edition of the paper has only "death notices" -- as in
a list of names and ages.

Thank you.  I enjoyed it.

        No, Missouri is not Yankeeland.  It is essentially a comp day
for the 10 extra evening hours I worked last week for parent
teacher conferences. FWIW, I don't remember the teachers
getting a day off after conferences in Yankeeland.  Ana went
to school this morning as her conferences are next week.

Please do not associate being a real [whatever state] with how the votes
in that state tend to go.  I would <punch you out> if you suggested that
I was not a real Mississippian, yet I often disagree with the majority
of voters in the state.

I'm feeling even more outraged about politics today, having found my
mailbox stuffed full of expensive Republican distortions.  Chip
Pickering is now picturing criminals in striped suits on his fliers.
Yesterday it was about "poor Aunt Sally."  The day before it was about
"snake oil."  All of these fliers show pictures of Shows with a sneaky
look in his eyes -- some kind of very bad picture that Chippy's lackeys
found somewhere and doctored up.  Shows is far from my kind of person --
way, way too conservative.  But he also is the least sneaky politician I
can imagine.  I think it was also yesterday that I got a letter from
Chippy's mother talking about how those nasty Democrats had done bad
things to her husband (he was the judge appointee who got zapped --
Bethany once asked me about him) and saying that we need to make sure
that good people like her chipmunk son are in control.  Chip Pickering
is obnoxious.  Imho, of course.  I'm sure his mother loves him.

As you may remember, we got to know Bill Sanford because he and his crew
came to Oak Ridge each March for spring training.  We sort of inherited
Bill and his group from the fellow in the rowing association who had
handled spring training for years.  Bill is OK as an individual; as a
referee, I never had any trouble with Bill or his crews.  Moreover, he
always was appreciative of the efforts we made in spring training to help
him, prepare his crews, etc.

That being said, Bill left a bit to be desired.  As the head crew coach, he
raised nepotism to a high art in his program.  He also drove off a very
gifted womens' crew coach (and after she left, surprise!  Bill's daughter
took over); his best assistant also left, to be replaced by Bill's brother
or brother-in-law.  One year, his mens' crew trashed the Oak Ridge motel in
which they were staying (to his credit, they paid the bill).  As a coach,
if you looked at the competitive record, he was so-so.  Bill is the sort of
person that it is enjoyable to have a couple of beers with and talk, but
that's about it.  I have no insights into him as a politician---my guess is
that now that he has retired (<been> retired?) as a crew coach, his local
political standing is about all he has left and he is fighting to hold onto it.

Obitiuaries don't often list a cause of death.

So is school closed totally -- as in the students get a holiday because
the teachers have worked extra hours?  I don't mean to suggest that
that's a bad thing.  I realize that schools usually go x number of days
per year and that the x's are pretty close everywhere.  It's just that
I've never heard of such a thing before.

I went to the post office and chatted with a young Jewish man about an
upcoming trip to Israel for about half an hour while we waited for our
numbers to be called. Got my mail--the BonnieSox was the straw that
broke the camel's back, evidently, since they were right on top.

They are gorgeous. I like this wool a lot, Bonnie.

Oh, good.  I'm glad.  That yarn is all the rage in knitting circles this
season!  I might try to make sweaters for two little boys out of it because
now safety people are saying that little boys and girls shouldn't be
strapped into their car seats wearing heavy sweaters or winter coats.  That
yarn is thin enough that it won't matter.  Yet, it's wool and warm.

I know.  But they occasionally do and sometimes give clues.  My
complaint is simply that the Knoxville newspaper apparently doesn't
include real obituaries in its online edition.

The reason I'm interested is that I am shocked by a short obituary in
today's Jackson paper.  I think I told the story here once before about
a very small-worldish situation that involved Knoxville.  Long story
that I won't bore you with, but its gist is that my second cousin moved
to Kville in middle-aged as a divorced mother of adult children, and
ended up marrying the only non-UT-related person Boyd and I had known in
Kville.  She was apparently in good health a few months ago when she
wrote my mother about the death of her aunt (of this person's aunt, not
my mother's aunt -- Beth was a cousin on my father's side of the
family).  In today's Jackson paper there was a very short obituary
saying that Beth had died Tuesday.  She was 62.

I've done that on a few occasions.  I'm not a yellow-dog.  But those
occasions are rare and are becoming rarer and rarer.  I would indeed
vote for a yellow dog before voting for Trent Lott or Chip Pickering.  I
wouldn't vote for Booty Hunt over Thad Cochran, though.  Booty died not
long ago.  No more Booty on ballots.  That will seem strange.  He ran
for one thing or another in just about every election.

If I wore sweaters, I'd want one out of this wool.

Why is this <significant>?  And have I not said his name before?  Yes,
his name was Boyd.  It's funny that I can't remember now exactly where
in Mississippi he was born.  I remember that it was an accident -- as in
he was born somewhere that his parents were just passing through.  It's
weird that I no longer remember where.   He was basically from Forest,
MS.

Maybe I was simply more naive or less sensitive to what was happening or
whatever in past times, but I find today's world the scariest of my
memory.  Yes, I realize that some parts of the world have been dealing
with mega-scariness for many years.  And no, I don't mean to suggest
that "today's world" has to mean from a US perspective.  I really do
mean today's world.  For some people in some places, today's world is no
scarier than it's ever been.  But I think for a large number of people
throughout the world it's scarier.

I started to reply to BrP that I would guess he'd have more trouble
returning to Canada -- based on that funny (to me) questioning I got
from the Canadian official about "fire arms" at the border near Jackman,
Maine.

Progress marches forward.

I like this essay on "Complexity, Trust and Terror"
<http://www.netfuture.org/2002/Oct2202_137.html>.  It's kind of about how
the more complex a system, the more likely it will fall down go boom.  The
author's conclusion: "Fortunately, the richness of human knowledge includes
workable systems alternative to today's complex, power-centered, globally
extended, increasingly war-hungry dinosaurs. The construction of more
peaceful, resilient systems can be accomplished through imaginative efforts
(many of them well underway) aimed at living lightly on the earth with
justice and compassion. Moving steadily along this path could also help
eliminate grievances in the world's population that now serve as spawning
grounds for terrorist attacks."

It's not all that significant.  It's just that you never said his name

Breasts bare a bird's true character

By Ryann Connell
Staff writer

October 29, 2002

It is called "oppai uranai" --- telling a woman's fortune according to
the shape of her breasts.


There may be something Freudian about it, but all men ever need to know
about women they can judge by looking at
where they'd always like to focus anyway -- her breasts.

Despite the titters of those around him, Mitsugu Shiga, a medical doctor
and author of the book "Marugoto Wakaru
Onna no Ecchi," (Everything You Wanted to Know About Women's Sex),
claims to be an augurer of the aureole.

And though he has his knockers, Shiga is confident his breast readings
not only allow him to keep abreast of a
woman's character, but rarely see him make any boobies.

"Discerning a woman's character through her looks is extremely
difficult. But if there's one part of a woman's body
that doesn't lie, I'd have to say it was her breasts," the doctor says.

Shiga has been conducting clinical tests for close on 40 years, paying
particular attention during that time to
mammaries. What he has learned has allowed him to come up with a variety
of theories about how breast shape
determines character.

"Boobs come in a variety of shapes and sizes. Analyzing breasts by
comparing the ratio between the radius of the
base and the size allows breasts to be divided into three broad
categories. They can easily be assessed," Shiga
says.

He notes the three types of breast sizes are large, standard and flat,
the latter accounting for about one quarter of all
women who are unable to boast of breasts that stand out no more than a
few centimeters from the chest and are
considerably smaller than their radius.

"(Flat-chested women) are quick thinkers who usually focus on only one
man. Usually, they could care less about
sex," Shiga says, adding that men can persuade women to change.
"Usually, these women are noble and sincere
types, so once they find their man, they'll normally do whatever he
wants them to and that becomes their pleasure.

"One matter where these women tend to lack is their low self-esteem when
it comes to breast size. They're always
worried their men are playing around on them. I recommend doggy style
with these women so they can forget about
their shortcomings and enjoy themselves."

A standard-sized bust is regarded as one that protrudes about 5 to 6
centimeters from the chest and is roughly
equal to its radius. "This is the ideal shape for a breast. It's not too
large and not too small. It has a feminine bulge
about it," Shiga proclaims. "When it comes to character, women with
average-sized breasts also have a
straight-forwardness pleasant to most men."

It is in the sack, according to Shiga, where that straightforwardness
comes to the fore. "They're easygoing and enjoy
sex for what it is. They're the types who really go off once they've
been fired up," the doctor says. "It's typical for them
to forget their partner and go off into their own little world, which
can be both a blessing and a bane. It might be a
good idea to give them a go on top every now and again."

Mammoth mammaries are a good sign, the physician claims. "They have the
sturdiness of an ox and usually
indicate a woman with a positive attitude toward sex and life in
general. They'll come up with positions by
themselves. It's not easy for guys to play around on these types. Once
you marry a woman like this, you'd better be
sure you're committed to only her."

Considering breasts are the source by which most of us survive the early
stages of our lives, it shouldn't really come
as a surprise that Shiga claims they offer a hint to determining the
type of person they belong to. "Breasts are
basically lumps of fat. What makes them bigger is large doses of the
female hormone estrogen. Breasts are,
therefore, a symbol of a woman's femininity," he says. "That's why
looking at a woman's breasts can help in
predicting what sort of character she has and the type of sex she
enjoys."

Not exactly. I think they thought that someone was accessing a psychic
hotline or a sex phone thing without my knowing about it, so they opted
to shut things down. I still don't see why they didn't just call to ask
me. That business of not being able to call after 9pm and then shutting
me off at 9:30 sounds mighty strange.

But I know you never would vote Republican, Natalie. Of course you are a

What sort of post office is this? It sounds like a bakery or deli. Don't

Ken has found an apartment! Two weeks to the day since he left on his
quest. It was not easy, but perserverance paid off. It is a one bedroom
on Panorama City (about a mile from where he lived in Van Nuys before).
It has two parking places with electronic gate openers, which is a most
exciting element. There is a sunken living room, a fireplace, a/c, a
dishwasher, gas heat and stove. Laundry facilities a few doors away (in
the same building--not elsewhere). $650.00.

Tomorrow Ken will fly to Montreal. He and Suma will get her stuff packed
up and on the way, then come here to pack up his, and then they will be
off on their great adventure.

I have been so stressed these last weeks, because he was getting very
discouraged and called me for advice and comfort ten times a day (thus
the phone cut-off thing). Knowing that he has a signed lease and the
keys in his pocket has lifted a great weight from my chest. And that is
good because I seem to have a bad brochitis thing going on and breathing
has been a challenge for about a week. Got antibiotics on Wednesday and
am using a nebulizer to try to open some airways. (Dr. says problem is
not in lungs, but in bronchii.)

Got this email moments ago:

From: Dangerous Visions [mailto:readsf@readsf.com]

Dear Friends,

Several months ago, Art and I wrote asking for your renewed support.
The events of 9/11 and a declining economy were taking a terrible
toll on our 21-year old bookstore. Some of you called, a few wrote,
and others began frequenting DV more often. The response was less
than overwhelming, but we continued to fight the good fight,
determined to bring you the best science fiction, fantasy, and horror
books as we had for decades. But the wave of support was fleeting and
autograph party attendance took a dramatic dip. Even big name authors
failed to attract a crowd. Moreover, few of those coming to get books
signed bothered to visit the store in between signings.

And yet, even as our walk-in clientele decreased, our on-line
customer base was growing. As the writing on the wall became more
pronounced, our course of action became clearer. Faced with increased
operating costs and falling walk-in revenue, Art and I have decided
to take Dangerous Visions to the next logical level: a purely virtual
storefront.

Beginning Monday November 3rd, we'll be packing up the store...

Etc...

You could find an apartment in Austin with those amenities at that
price?  I guess it would depend on where in Austin, of course.  That's
true even in little Starkville, and I'm sure it's even more true in a
larger city (except maybe that in a larger city people's desirable
places are more spread out).

But those reasons aren't the ones we were discussing earlier.  The sucky

The rental market is hot, hot, hot around LA. There were almost no apts.
to look at. They either were crack house slum places or $1000 anad up.
He says that in 1998 when he left, his new apartment would have been
renting for $500. Their original budget was $599 and he was stunned and
reeling when he arrived. He says that in the LA Times, they don't even
list things under $1000 for they are so rare. People learn by word of

Not her, her namesake. I had to look him up because he's in that car
commercial and he looks so YOUNG. But he was born in 1919, so he's

Is there anything Celtic about them?  I hate Celtic.

 Did I send you a copy
of Marly Hornik's _Say You Do_ ?

Yes, thanks sincerely.  She is clever, but I find I also have anti-folk
prejudices even when it's urban sophisticated folk.

Sorry to be so negative but I have surprised myself at how much perfectly
good music that many many people like pisses me off.  I am so much more
open with visual arts, I don't really understand this prickliness I find
in myself.

Jeez, what kind of a unix whore are you, anyway?

* stands for zero or more characters.  ** is redundant.

. represents a single character, which makes it particularly appropriate as
your emblem.  ..yd is probably what you were thinking of.  (This could also
have been represented (as every American who's been to Europe knows) as
.{2}yd .)

ATTN:MANAGING DIRECTOR /CEO.
DEAR SIR/MADAM

First I must solicit your confidence in this
transaction, this is by virtue of its nature as being
utterly confidential and top secret. Though I know
that a transaction of this magnitude will make any one
apprehensive and worried,this transaction  by is very
nature is in deed one of a rather complex nature and
it has as its bane the issue of TRUST but I am
assuring you that
all will be well at the end of the day. There is no
doubt that trust conceptually is a conundrum which
leads its self to deferring interpretation,  it  is
not to the extent of empirical of scientific proof We
have
decided to contact you due to the urgency of this
transaction, as we have been reliably informed of your
discreetness and ability in transaction of this
nature.

Let me start by introducing myself properly to you.  I
am  DR.MADU one of the directors  with the
ZENITH INTERNATIONAL BANK, Lagos.  I came to know you
 in my
Private Search for a Reliable and Reputable Person to
handle this Confidential Transaction, which involves
the transfer of Huge sum of Money to a Foreign Account
requiring Maximum Confidence.

THE PROPOSITION:

A Foreigner an Australia, Late Engr. Steve Moore
(Snr.) an Oil Merchant with the Federal Government  of
Nigeria, until his death months ago in Kenya Air Bus
(A310-300) Flight KQ431, Banked with us at ZENITH
INTERNATIONAL BANK, Lagos and had a closing balance as
at
the end of September, 2000 worth US$45,500,000.00
(fourty five Million five hundred thousand United
State Dollars), the bank
now expects a next of kin as beneficiary.  Valuable
efforts are being made by the ZENITH INTERNATIONAL
BANK
to get in touch with any of the  Moore's family or
relatives but to no success.

It is because of the perceived possibility of not
being able to locate any of Late Engr. Steve Moore
(Snr.)' s next kin (He had no wife or children that is
known to us).  The Management under the influence of
our Chairman and Members of the Board of Directors,
has made arrangement  for the funds to be declared
'Unclaimed' and subsequently be donated to the trust
fund for arms and ammunition to further enhance the
course of War in Africa and the World in General.

In order to avert this negative development some of my
trusted colleagues and I now seek your permission to
have you stand as next of kin to Late Engr. Steve
Moore (Snr.) so that the fund US$45.5 Million will be
released and paid into your account as the
beneficiary's next of kin.  All documents and proves
to enable you get his fund will be carefully worked
out.  We have secure from the probate an order of
madamus to locate  any of deceased beneficiaries, and
more so we are assuring you that this business is 100%
Risk Free involvement.  Your share stays while the
rest be for myself and my colleagues for investment
purpose.  According to agreement within both parties.

As soon as  we receive an acknowledgement of receipt
of this message in acceptance of our mutual business
proposal,  the necessary modalities and disbursement
ratio to suite both parties are thus: 30% for you a/c
owner,10% for the expeneses, 60% for i and my
colleagues.  While replying furnish me with your
private fax and phone numbers for easy
communication .Whilst this anormalities may well exacerbate your doubt and apprehensive about the transaction in view of the fact that you area person not physically known to us.  I must have to advice you that a healthy degree of caution be exercised before conclusions are reached by your goodself.

If this proposal is acceptable  by you, do not make
undue advantage of the trust we have bestowed in you.
Kindly mail me back with this e-mail personalcontact1@myself.com

Best regards,
Dr. Smith Madu

Do any of you know of some websites that might have good discounts on
Haflingers?  I need some new ones and have decided on the Heidelberg or
something close to it.  Haven't found them for less than $100 but would
like to.  Here's what they look like:

Correct.  But why would one bother to put one in when one wasn't
needed?  The only case I can think of to use an asterisk when one isn't
needed would be if you didn't know whether there was another character
or when you were dealing with a block of things like files named blap,
blap1, blap2, etc. and wanted the command to include the simple blap
along with all the longer blap names.  Neither of those situations
applies to Boyd.

        Yes, school is closed totally.  The day off is built into the
schedule.  I'd never heard of it before, either.

Not that much of a dead bird because I still do not have my Moose
Munch.  It sits in Marie's cupboard getting stale, no doubt.      <whine,

What is moose turd pie?  We have moose droppings ice cream around here.

"Moose Turd Pie" is a classic Utah Phillips story.  If you've got your mp3

Riley missed two days this week. I cannot hear the doorbell in the
living room if I have TV on. I have told him to come on in. But on
Wednesday he came, I didn't hear him, and he did not come in, so ran
off. On Thursday he had "unexpected" volley ball practice. Now that it
gets dark earlier, there is less after-school leeway. Before, he came as
late as six, but now it is dark then.

I hope I feel better soon, too. It is very scary to be alone and not be
able to breathe well.

with the balance US$20.5M as part of the over-invoiced

We have agreed to COMPENSATE you duly if agreement is
reached by both of us and I and one of my colleagues
involved in this deal will come to your country to
arrange for our share, upon the confirmation from you
that the Certified International Bank Draft has been
Approved and Raised in your favor.
Consequent upon your acceptance of this proposal,
kindly confirm your interest by Telephone to me,

I don't need no steenkin excuse. The Moose Munch finally made it to the P.O.
yesterday. However, unfortunately it certainly is not packed as well as it
should be -- I arrived there with no materials, bought a too-big box and
didn't have anything to stuff in the box along with the package. So surely
it's flopping its way up to Bar Harbor, I hope not getting too pulverized
along the way.

    You've got that backward.  She was born before Sir Edmund made his
climb, despite what she says.  Unless she's lying about her age, of
course.

I was really impressed at a recent dinner discussion when somebody said,
"It's time to grow up and realize we live in a two-party system.  All that
energy put into other parties has no real effect.  Get over it, and join
one or the other of the main parties -- it doesn't matter too much which
one -- and work to change it to be the way you want it to be."

There seems to be a slight mix-up here. Europe-going Americans,
whoever they are, may not be able to make sense of a standalone
*. Perhaps .* was meant.

*, as Unix non-whore "Betty" has astutely observed, stands for
asshole--however, let us also admit "Betty" is an imperfect
English-whore for spelling it with two words. Who the hell
spells "asshole" with two words? Extremely OLD people.

I seldom buy new shoes. Just before I had surgery, I took all my Birks (except
the two newest pairs) to our Birks rebuilder place (in West Town Mall) to be
rebuilt, re-soled, re-corked, etc. For under $100, I got all of them done. I
have a fab shoe wardrobe, mostly Birks. I have been wearing one pair since
1990, most of the others since 1991.

But that doesn't answer my question of where to find these Haflingers
for under $100.  My further explorations have led me to believe
nowhere.  I had just come back to the computer to go on and order them.
I can find wool ones for less, but the ones I'm replacing are wool
ones.  I've decided I don't like wool shoes because they attract
doghairs and generally don't wear as well as leather.

I love this.
-------------
<snip>Here in Salt Lake City, the library offers a program called Dog
Day
Afternoons.  Various therapy dogs come to the library, and kids are
encouraged to read to the dogs.  The kids get to choose the book to
read, and the dog to read it to (though I've observed some encouragement
- "oh, look, poor Nicki doesn't have anyone reading to him" - along the
way).  The theory is that it's a way for kids to improve their reading
skills, and their confidence in same, by practicing reading in a
non-threatening way, without being corrected all the time.  (The dogs
never point out a mispronounced word!)  It was started as a month-long
trial several years ago, and has been going strong ever since; it's very
popular, and plans to expand it to other libraries around town are going
forward.

Leaving aside such considerations as whether "automatically" might be a
better fit than "robotically," I found it less confusing that puffed up.
Although I am not the most computer-literate of souls, despite all of the
verbiage saying (several times) that PC architecture is variable and
strange things can happen if you're not careful, the article boiled down to
two points:

1.  Read the licensing agreement.
2.  Discontinue all other applications before installing the new software.

Me too!  Maybe I should volunteer Spencer.  It would be interesting to

Spencer has turned into one even though he's not <certified>.  As we
make our way through the lobby area and along the hall to my mother's

How could she have been named for him if he wasn't famous? It's not
like they were family buddies or anything.

Puffed up, yes. A writer trying to make engaging something that is
not, for most, intrinsically interesting. I think "automatically"
would have missed a nuance the writer was trying to convey.
Installation scripts are programmed, mechanical, unvarying, unable to
accommodate unusual environments. "Robot-like" might have been a
better choice.

I don't know who her family did or didn't know at the time of her
birth.  I think it's unlikely that they would be buddies with somebody
who lived that far away, of course, but I really know nothing about
their personal life.  A more likely guess would be that her parents
might have told her that jokingly later in her life or that she perhaps
said it jokingly.  I don't know the context of her saying it, but I can
imagine some occasions when the metaphor might work.  As for the thought
that she just made it up as an outright lie, what would be the point?

But that's not the same thing as saying that Hillary was a complete
unknown.  Perhaps he was known and admired for being an explorer and a
driven man, always looking for the next challenge.

    "Enjoy" isn't quite the verb I'd use, especially while contemplating
dinner.  She also claimed to have used a rifle, which if true would have
gotten her the votes she lost from kissing Arafat.  <sigh>
    Her husband claimed to be a Life Member of the NRA, too.  I remember that
distinctly as I nearly hurt myself laughing at the time.  I recall the photo
op during the '92 campaign where Bill showed up in cammies, a vest, and DRY
BOOTS carrying a Remington 1100 12-gauge and claimed he'd been duck hunting.
A friend of mine said, "Oh, REALLY?  Don't suppose they took a picture of his
hunting license and duck stamp, did they?"
    Oh, well, state law, Federal law, what's the difference.

Evidently to curry favor: "The American Spectator reports in 1996 that
on her Asian tour, Hillary Clinton told New Zealand television that
she had been named after Sir Edmund Hillary. Sir Edmund, however, was
an unknown beekeeper the year of Mrs. Clinton's birth."

Ahh.  So she said it to New Zealanders.  I didn't know that part.  I can
see how that might be to curry favor, though why she would be trying to
curry their favor, I'm not totally sure.  It seems a bit odd to me.

I don't know much about Arkansas, but I can say that it would be very
unusual for a male of his age who grew up in Mississippi not to have
ever gone hunting.  Not totally impossible, just quite unusual.  And
Arkansas does border Mississippi (though I usually forget that -- I
think of Mississippi's bordering states as Alabama, Louisiana, and
Tennessee -- for some reason I forget Arkansas -- maybe that's because I
didn't grow up in north Mississippi).

No, it was a question.  I couldn't understand why somebody would want to
make up a lie about being named for somebody.  As in why would it be a
plus of any kind?  I've been asked in my life if I was named for Natalie
Wood.  It wouldn't take more than a few years of hedging for me to make
that claim since she was older than I was and was famous pretty early.
But why in the world would I want anybody to think I was named for a
famous person?  It makes much more sense to me to want to claim to be
named for a beloved ancestor.  (I wasn't.  I still wish my parents had
followed the thought they had of naming me Susan Jane for Susannah Jane
Swittenberg.)

I wonder why my mother told me I was named for Connie Rae, who was a famous
singer or something in 1945.  I've never found any reference to her.  I
wonder if my mother made that up.

There you go, talking like an editor again...

The gentleman who was my mentor in editing was fond of saying that a good
editor rooted for his/her author while always remembering the audience.

    Earlier today I was reading a 16th Century English recipe for
plucking, cooking, *feeding*, and then eating a +living+ goose.
    No wonder I'm not very hungry.

The domestic cat is a standard item for dissection and study in Comparative
Vertebrate Anatomy.  The only reason must be because cats are so easy to
acquire for this purpose.  As a "representative" of higher-level
vertebrates, the cat is 'way out on one end of the distribution.  It is not
"typical" of much but rather is an example of highly sophisticated,
specialized design for a predator.  In Comparative Anatomy labs, one hoped
to draw as one's dissection assignment an alley cat or a feral cat; those
cats who had led pampered, domesticated lives had too damned much fat to
cut through and get rid of at every stage of the dissection.

I've wondered at times why I react so passionately if a dog is
threatened in a movie.  When I was watching that movie a few nights ago
("The Stepfather"), there was a moment when it appeared that this
murderer was going to murder a dog.  I freaked out and started screaming
"NOOOO -- DON'T EVEN THINK ABOUT IT -- I CAN'T STAND THIS."  I don't
react that way to murders of human beings in movies, though I'm not
really wild about movies that include murders or other violence.  I
think I know why I feel that way about animals.  We have perhaps even
discussed this before.  What's upsetting about animal abuse is that they
don't understand what's happening or why.  They're so trusting and
innocent.

I'd forgotten about "anatomy of a cat."  I never took it, of course, but
I remember that that used to be a regular term for some kind of course
-- presumably Comparative Vertebrate Anatomy -- back in the olden days.
My parents used to use that term for a course that was of their
generation, though I don't think either of them took it since Daddy was
a history major and Mama an English major.  But I think the term was
still around in my college years.

I never heard of her. There's some Connie Rae song on mp3 or whatever
it's called, according to Google.

The word is "supposably". I am sorry but this doesn't strike
me as a cute mistake. It's wrong and that's it. Further, no
explanation on the lines of "you don't say allegeably" ever
gets across.

Of course I got this example out of talking about mispronun-
ciations--the above has nothing to do with pronouncing, but
this is the general quality of talk that I am now grateful
for ...

I mentioned last night my annoyance at the Knoxville newspaper for not
giving full obituaries in their online edition.  Possibly it would have
been word-for-word what I read in the Jackson paper late yesterday,
though, so I would still be in a quandary.  Last night I said that I
wanted to find out why this cousin died, which I still do want to find
out.  But now I'm in a quandary about what to do.  I found out too late
to send flowers, so I want to send some kind of gift in her memory to
some charitable cause.  But I have no idea at all what cause.  The
Jackson obituary said nothing about that.  I'm pretty sure that the
story of her meeting her husband, the person I had known in Knoxville
when he was still married to somebody else, was about meeting at
church.  So today I took the name of the preacher doing the funeral and
googled for him and Knoxville, thinking that if I could find out the
name of their church, that would be a likely place to send a
contribution.  But the only hits I found identified him as some kind of
chaplain for the Knoxville jails.  It did say he was a Baptist, but no
particular church was identified.  I know for sure that these people
weren't into jail stuff.  So why that preacher did the funeral, I don't
know.  I don't know anything about their favorite causes in life, and I
don't know why Beth died.  (I think I mentioned last night that
sometimes obituaries give clues even if they don't specifically give the
cause of death.  One of those clues sometimes is in the favorite
charities -- like the Heart Association if somebody died of a heart
attack, etc. etc.)

So what should I do?  Should I pick some random cause in Knoxville?

Then you should be okay with the dog being killed in Gladiator: he was
chewing on Russell Crowe's arm. Not exactly a trusting or innocent
thing to do.

Showtime with Eddie Murphy and Robert deNiro.

This afternoon I saw the documentary called 9/11 about the French filmmakers shooting Ladder Company One when the twin towers were hit. It is a powerful piece, and told in a professional, unsentimental style.

That depends.  There's chewing and there's chewing.  Spencer often chews
on my arm.  Also, he might have been chewing antagonistically in order
to help somebody else.  I'd need to know much more before deciding that
it was ok.

Hmm.  It might be difficult to get to him.  I wonder whether there's an
e-mail address for the Knoxville jails.  I should check.  (The fact that
his last name is Smith doesn't help in tracking him down.)  Thanks for
the suggestion.

I've discovered by moving backwards on that jail url that it's a
<ministry> of the Knox County Association of Baptists.  I bet this man
is a preacher at some Baptist church in Knoxville.  I really dislike
giving to Baptist churches, but I do it when I think it would make a
dead person happy.

Correction:  It's a <mission>, not a <ministry>.  It's grouped with the
truck-stop mission.

In googling for the funeral home in Knoxville, what did I pop up but
yesterday's obituary from the Jackson paper.  Jackson and Knoxville are
roughly the same size, I think.  Why can the Jackson paper have normal
obituaries online but Knoxville not?

What is a <normal obituary>?

The KNS usually or often prints the obit supplied by the family. If you
had told me you wanted a print verison of an obit, I would have supplied
it.

One that says something more than a name and age.  That's all the
Knoxville newspaper gave (online) -- "death notices."

I didn't know about this until late yesterday, at which point I looked
at the online Knoxville paper and found only lists, no <normal>
obituaries.

You click on "obituaries" at the Knoxville News-Sentinel's website, and
here's what you get for a particular date:

http://www.knoxnews.com/kns/obituaries/article/0,1406,KNS_370_1517012,00.html

I guess the Knoxville idea of what "obituary" means is different from
mine.

        And some of those duck blinds in the more upscale preserves
are more comfortable than a number of the apartments I've

I'm sure that makes a big difference to the woman in San Francisco who
had her throat ripped out by that dog before she could get into her
apt.

That's common in business, the "we know better than you do" mentality.
I saw it at Sears when it upgraded a lot of Sears-Card holders to the
Sears Gold MasterCard without asking them first.  People came in to
use their Sears Cards and couldn't; when we called Credit and asked
what was going on, we were told that they couldn't go back to their
Sears Cards and had to reapply if they just wanted the Sears Card.

That's very true, T Bone.  If you've ever had a puppy and looked into those
innocent eyes, you would know they are born good.  There is no
evil.   "It's all good."

Right. The online KNS prints a fwe obits - but only for very prominent
individuals (see Bud Seymour for October 25) - or possibly (I'm not
sure) for individuals whose families paid for extra-length obits - it is
usual for newspapers to charge for longer obits.

Then they should use that term for the link to them.  They're what you
get when you click on "obituaries."

Nobody I would want to disturb by calling.  I know her husband (her
widower) and could no doubt find his phone number.  She has an older
sister I don't remember having met, but I would never be able to find
her phone number.  Her married name is something like Davis, and she
lives in a city in the west -- I can't remember exactly where now,
although the obituary named it.  And then there are two sons.  I don't
know them either and wouldn't want to bother them even if I could track
them down.

In a way a self-defrosting refrigerator is convenient, but in other ways
I preferred my old refrigerator.  The defrosting of the automatic one
does odd things to the ice at times, and I also used defrosting times
with the old one to do thorough cleaning of it.  It's easier to clean a
refrigerator you've just defrosted, imho.

Yes.  I think I mentioned this when I first mentioned my frustration at
the lack of info.

Do you mean to tell me that the Sears Card I'm carrying in my purse right
now is not valid? Because they sent me one of those unsolicited Mastercards
a few years ago and I cut it into pieces and threw it away. Did they
actually cancel my Sears Card? That pisses me off. Not that I've bought
anything at Sears in years (probably why I didn't know they'd cancelled my
card), but that was my very first credit card. I got it in college and have
always had a certain attachment to it. Guess it's time to cut it in pieces
as well :-(

I'd never go back to defrosting. Maybe you just need a new fridge.

There's a refrigerator. Just forgot to mention it. I don't like my Sears
Frost-Free because I never have ice cubes. They get defrosted away.

Well, Ken flew safely to Montreal last night on Air Canada. They
searched and questioned him for 20 minutes at LAX. Made him take off his
boots, his belt, his glasses, his jacket, but not his underwear at
least. He was wanded and patted down as well.

I remember this feeling from when I had pneumonia. Do you have one of

No. I am breathing a little better today, I think, but I feel spacey and
not too chipper. I had coffee, went back to bed and watched Meet the
Press, just stopped to read e-mail and let Spike out, then back to bed.
IBM guy is coming later today to explain how to unzip the Word
attachments that I need, and I hope Riley will come around 3:30.
Cleaning lady comes in the morning. So I am apt to be found by someone
before I decay, if I die. I want to think that Spike won't nibble me
before the discovery.

Jackson, Mississippi?  Not.  It prints basic obituaries free and
includes them in its online edition just as they appear in the
newspaper.  It charges only for extra info and pictures.

Once again, the current thread on the book list and here is exactly the
same--how dogs are good, but the people who mistreat them or train them
wrongly are bad. It is positively spooky how frequently I could be
reading either list and not know which is which without reading the
header. Lard and mayo the other day and now good v. evil in dogs.

Unfortunately, this sounds entirely routine except for the duration (though
I've seen a number of 10 minute searches).

Getting wanded, patted, and having to take off jackets and undo belts
happens to everybody at most security checkpoints I've been through.  Some
people are unlucky enough to be picked by profile or at random for a
thorough search before boarding the plane, where everything gets taken
apart carefully and inspected.

The random searches I most hate seeing are the moms with a 4- or 5-year old
kid, where the kid dutifully hands over their little backpack of stuffed
animals or coloring books to be searched.  The kids are old enough to
absorb the event, but aren't old enough to know this stupidity ain't normal.

A friend posted this a couple months ago on her blog: "At Denver
International Airport last week, an enthusiastic security guard trainee
decided that she needed to manually verify my assertion that the
metal-detector wand is triggered by brassiere underwires.  After confirming
this fact, I was allowed to pass through security and board the airplane,
still wearing the suspicious bra. Airline security staff are clearly not
being sufficiently vigilant against the threat of rows of zaftig passengers
rising up to garrote the crew with their underwear."

    Why cook the goose or why read the recipe?  The answer to the latter
was it was included in the book I'm reading, and the answer to the
former is that the author quoted said "It is mighty pleasant to
behold."  I don't care that it did date to 1660, its still disgusting.

Novelist Mistry Cancels Book Tour
By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Filed at 12:21 p.m. ET

SALT LAKE CITY (AP) -- One of Canada's most celebrated writers canceled
a
book tour after complaining of racial profiling at U.S. airports.

Novelist Rohinton Mistry, a native of India living in Canada, canceled
midway through his U.S. book tour, citing the ``unbearable'' humiliation
of
being searched at U.S. airports.

Mistry canceled stops in Salt Lake City, Chicago, San Francisco, Boston,
Iowa City, Iowa, and Madison, Wis., according to a Saturday report in
The
Globe and Mail, one of Canada's two national daily papers.

``As a person of color he was stopped repeatedly and rudely at each
airport
along the way -- to the point where the humiliation to him and his wife
(with whom he has been traveling) has become unbearable,'' said a
statement
from Mistry's publicist.

Canada considers some U.S. anti-terrorism policies discriminatory. It
has
objected to U.S. border officials' taking photographs and fingerprints
of
Canadian citizens born in Middle Eastern and Muslim countries.

Canada issued a travel advisory last month urging such citizens to avoid
travel to the United States, but Foreign Affairs Minister Bill Graham
said
he has since received U.S. guarantees that all Canadians appearing with
a
passport at a U.S. border would be treated equally.

Mistry is a winner of the Kiriyama Prize, honoring books that promote
understanding of Pacific Rim nations, for ``Family Matters,'' a novel
set in
Bombay and featuring an ailing patriarch whose children debate over how
to
care for him. ``Family Matters,'' Mistry's fourth book, also was a
finalist
for the Booker Prize.

    Yea, well, we have USA Today, which keeps the Pulitzer committee up
nights.

    I notice that the article does not mention which airports he was
"repeatedly and rudely" stopped at.  And how far along in the tour was he,
exactly?  One stop?  Two?  Or any?  That's some weird intinerary, at any
event.  Who's his travel agent?  And, "each" airport?  Which ones?  Did he
even leave home?

Do you plant roots?  Aren't they something that sprout out of seeds
after they're in the dirt?  But wait -- there are root balls, and they
get planted.  But I guess they sprouted from seeds planted in the dirt
ball, didn't they.

Iow, does it work to say "where X and Y met and where our Mississippi
roots were planted"?  Planting <seeds> won't work because it would turn
into a <sexual image>, which I don't really want here.  So would a root
ball.  Roots are also sexual, of course, but in this context I think
"roots" is ok.

Would it be better to say "where x and y met and our Mississippi
heritage began" instead of mentioning root-planting?

John, you surely know that authors pushing books go wherever they can
get TV or radio time or a booksigning at a store. This can indeed make
you scurry all over the country in a weird way. Sort of like GWB these
last three weeks--five states a day, every which way. He began in the
east, in New York, Boston, and Philadelphia, I can tell you that. I
don't know where else before he gave it up.

    "No, REALLY???"

    Yes, I do.  None of which answers any of my questions.

I've zapped the metaphor and am being a literalist now:  "cultural
heritage began."

Do counties everywhere put out books from time to time that are
compilations of family histories?  I've used some of the Alabama and
North Carolina ones in doing genealogical.  I've also submitted to one
in Alabama.  This time I'm doing a very short blurb for one in Smith
County, MS.  I just saw the solicitation message and decided to do this
tiny, dry write-up because I thought the Maynors and Swittenbergs should
be represented.

I guess my reply really didn't give the context of roots etc.  Here's
the boring thing I just wrote.  The rooty stuff is at the end.

                          Maynor-Swittenberg

        In the late 1850s Marshall Wilborn Maynor, born in Georgia in 1838 to
William H. and Elizabeth (Cox) Maynor,  moved  from Russell County,
Alabama, to Smith County, Mississippi, where he met Susannah Jane
Swittenberg ("the sweetest woman who ever lived," according to her
grandson, Robert Clayton Maynor).  It was also during the 1850s that
Susannah had moved to Smith County, from Newberry County, South
Carolina, with her father, William Swittenberg, her step-mother, Emiline
(Swindler) Swittenberg, and three siblings: Christiana Elizabeth, John
Calvin, and Albion Melanchton, children born to William and his first
wife, Harriet (Summer) Swittenberg, who had died in 1848.  Two children
were born to William and Emiline after their move to Mississippi: Mary
E.M. and William F.  After Emiline's death, William married for a third
time, this time Martha Gallagher, beside whom he is buried in the Mount
Zion Lutheran Cemetery in Trenton.
        Marshall Maynor and Susannah Swittenberg were married in Smith County
on November 17, 1859.  By 1860 they owned a small farm, close to the
Swittenberg property.  They managed to keep the farm during the time
Marshall was serving in the Civil War (Mississippi 46th Infantry,
Company G).  By 1870 the farm had increased in value, and Marshall and
Susannah had four children: William J., John M., Anna Bell, and Mary
Elizabeth (Molly).  Two more children were born before the family left
Smith County in the mid 1870s: Henry Marshall and Charles Augustus. The
last four of Marshall and Susannah's ten children were born later:
Robert Franklin, James G., Relda, and May.  By 1880 the family had
settled in Hinds County, where both Marshall and Susannah died, he in
1919, she in 1927.  They are buried in Cedar Lawn Cemetery in Jackson.
        Although it was more than 120 years ago that the Maynor family left the
county, at least some of Marshall and Susannah's descendants feel a
special bond to Smith County, where Marshall Maynor and Susannah Jane
Swittenberg met and our Mississippi heritage began.

Not really.  The speaker is implying this meaning: "1 a : to put or set in
the ground for growth <plant seeds> b : to set or sow with seeds or plants
c : IMPLANT" -- but for that you need seeds which grow into roots.

Roots can be firmly placed, like feet: "2 a : ESTABLISH, INSTITUTE b :
COLONIZE, SETTLE c : to place (animals) in a new locality d : to stock with
animals / 3 a : to place in or on the ground b : to place firmly or
forcibly <planted a hard blow on his chin>", but to do that with roots
wouldn't imply origination there.

It would be better to say something like, "where our Mississippi heritage
is rooted."

Give me a break. Of course. There is no law that you have to fly in a
straight line. People are not crows. You seem to be critical of this
author because he didn't take a straight route across the country. What
is that about? Do you doubt that he encountered rudeness? I don't.

There are plenty of them around. I imagine it depends on the residents
and how much money is available for such projects. There were lots of
them in the 19th century, I know that. One was done for this county by
interested citizens (not by the county government) in the '40s.

Hey -- I thought of that very clause!  I might say that ("is rooted")
instead of "began."  But maybe I'll just leave it as it is now.  It's
kind of funny that I never mull over word choices in <real articles>.  I
just dump the words onto the page and zip them away.

Actually, I'm not sure that "is rooted" works either, now that I think
about it.  Maybe the taproot is there, but the roots have spread a good
distance from that county.

I don't think county governments are involved, at least not in the ones
I know anything about.  I think they're done by "interested citizens,"
usually in the form of the local genealogy club.

It's actually down the hall.  But more importantly I'm never nasty to Clyde
in person.  In my wordsler persona I can be sarcastic.

You guys would never believe what I'm doing at the moment.  I hardly
believe it myself.  I walked down to the Bar Harbor Internet Cafe to keep
the owner, my friend April, company as she sits in the under-heated space
running things.   We were going to play Scrabble.  Well, instead of setting
up a board, we are sitting face to face at two different terminals and
playing Internet Scrabble at the pixie pit.

In between turns, I'm checking my email.

Actually, other branches of my family tree go back farther than that in
Mississippi.  But I guess it still makes since to say that the
Mississippi heritage of the descendants of Marshall and Susannah began
there since if they hadn't met, we wouldn't be we, would we.

You're strange, Natalie. The guy might actually appreciate a few
words of condolence, and far from being disturbed, he might actually
appreciate the opportunity to talk about her for a few minutes to a
sympathetic friend.

But you break up root balls when you plant them--at least, here, I've
been advised to do that because of the impenetrable clay we have.

I'd make it active--where X and Y met and planted roots in MS.

I've never encountered rudeness.  Nor do I take it as a personal affront to

With the burial just yesterday, I'd say that he probably wants solitude

You could also do quick e-mailings to us of your letters and what's on
the board, and we could give suggestions.

I've had my feet and shoes inspected,
been run down by hands, emptied my
purse and a carry-on for all to see, etc.
and I have never felt it an affront.
I have been affronted by the fact that
the person in front of or behind me
walked on through when he was just
as likely to be questionable.  So the
system is far from being effective.
When my life is a stake I'd love for them
to find a way to really assure me that I
will be safe on that plane.  It will probably
never be possible, but I appreciate any
effort made, however slow it is to develop.

Furthermore, I must comment that a person's
color is probably not the most likely reason
for rudeness to him.  I have seen so many
examples of behavior that must really test
the patience of people in security.  For
example, a supercilious attitude and reluctance
to comply, etc.  Particularly if the employee is
female and the passenger is not accustomed to
dealing with females.

I am just dropping a thought, not starting an
argument.

No, I think it's the presentness of the is.  Somehow it seems odd to
think of a root stuck there in soil which hasn't been trod upon by the
descendants in years.

It may be that this Indian gentleman and his wife were treated

The point above was about what's online -- in Knoxville, only a few are
-- presumably the ones of prominent people or those paid for.  That is
not true in Jackson.  All the obits are online.  And all of them are
real obits, not just listings.  You pay more if you want pictures and
longer obits.  The $50 is an estimate for x number of words/pictures
longer than is considered the normal obit.

Yes indeed, we do disagree.  Look again at the Knoxville paper and see
what you see -- a list of names and ages.  Look at the Jackson paper and
see what you see -- real obituaries.  It says that the free, basic
obituaries include enough info to identify the dead person clearly.  In
most cases that means the immediate survivers -- as in names of spouse
and children or parents if they're living.  Usually the basic ones also
will say and x number of grandchildren.  If you want to list all the
names of grandchildren and nieces and nephews and such, you pay extra.

Thanks, Ally. I've been behaving myself, no hospital this time :-)
Happy to be back though. Missed you all.
Still have to get used to this new system though. I was on this server before,

What's the advantage of eating a goose cooked this way? How do you
cook a living goose enough to eat it and still have it alive? What
book are you reading?

Yes. In my experience and observing the experiences of others (mostly
widows), there is a huge lot of support up to the day of the funeral,
and then everyone goes away, back to their own lives, and you are left
totally alone in the world. I think that making contact with the
bereaved a few days after the event would be welcome and helpful.

Anyone else see -Roger Dodger-? Annoying camera-work but
enjoyable film otherwise. In the indie mold. Good acting
by Campbell Scott.

Nope.  But I saw Behind Enemy Lines
last night on HBO and became so
engrossed I wouldn't even leave the
room to make myself a cup of tea.

Surprise! United will not refund my $1115.00 ticket to Helsinki.

But I can use the ticket for another trip - it will be easiest to use on
an int'l trip. So I think I may be going to Sydney next summer after all
(for a conf) - I was not certain that i wanted to pay for it. A ticket
will cost about $1500 - or an extra $400 plus a $150 <service> charge.
Sydney for $550 RT is not bad.

For the thoroughly curious (and strong of stomach), the recipe is on the web at
<http://www.florilegium.org/files/FOOD-MEATS/duck-goose-msg.html>.

Bottom of the page, search for "Secrets of Nature".

Another version (with all sorts of other interesting medieval recipes) is
at <http://members.tscnet.com/pages/omard1/jportac14.html#bkXIVIX>, right
under the peacock recipe.

Bert Vaux et al. at Harvard have an extensive online North American dialect
survey with maps of the results available for each question.  Some
questions: "cr[ee]k (a small body of running water)", "How do you pronounce
Mary/merry/marry?", "Can you call coleslaw "slaw"?", "What do you call the
long sandwich that contains cold cuts, lettuce, and so on?", etc.

<http://www.hcs.harvard.edu/~golder/dialect/>

Vaux is preparing an atlas of North American dialects, based largely on the
survey.

I hope its obvious limitations and questionable methodology will be made

You find it weird to read obituaries?  I'd call that <posting young>.
It's not unusual for children or even young adults to ignore obituaries
since they don't know as many people who are likely to show up in them.
But that changes in mid life for most people, with the number of
familiar names picking up speed at a frightening pace after a while.

I started to read the death notices when I moved back to Oslo and subscribed to the paper where deaths are usually announced.

I realize that some people like receiving phone calls.  I did not mean
to suggest otherwise.  My guess, however, is that I am not "unlike all
others" in not wanting to get phone calls.

I like getting calls from people I know; I don't like getting calls from
people I don't know (unless it's the Prize Patrol).  Sometimes I wish
I could travel back in time and ask Bell "Are you sure you want to

If I'd lived in the same place for a zillion years, I might read
obituaries. But I don't here; I don't know so many people that I might
not hear of a death otherwise.

Thanks, Pete.  I filled out the survey.  Some of the responses are
interesting; some are predictable (i.e., what is "the City") and probably
reflect where the respondent now lives as opposed to where they "learned"
the language.

I was a little puzzled by having to choose a city, i.e., an area, that I
considered to be primary in affecting my dialect/word choice.  Presumably,
that area is where my responses will be registered.  I suppose that works
fairly well for someone who still lives close to where they were born.  I
rather suspect that most of us who have relocated several times have
modified our dialects as we found one particular use/pronunciation to be
more effective/precise/acceptable.

I puzzled over that one. To me, NYC is the city. But given that they
wanted to know where I learned the language, I put Chicago, because that
was the city then. Hope I did not skew the results too much. I have no
words for some things.
Vocabulary-challenged is what I am.

I found some of the answers interesting:  "The devil is beating his wife"

I'd be very surprised if a majority of respondents didn't have that
kind of disconnect. (I refer you to Natalie's remarks about accuracy.)

I would be less inclined to read them in a place I'd moved to in recent
years than in the place I'm from.  That's why I read them in the Jackson
paper.  It includes them for people who used to live there, not just
people currently there (or currently in death there).

Can't remember all. The two Marie just mentioned. And a drive-through
liquor store. Never even heard of such a thing. I guess I'd call it a
drive-through liquor store.
There was one more that escapes me now. And I had to put remarks on a
couple. I never knew my maternal grandfather because he died before I
was born, so couldn't answer that, and I called my grandmother "Gram,"
which was not a given choice.

Their results will be mightily skewed anyway.  What they're doing is fun

I've never heard of sunshower, but I certainly know when the devil's
beating his wife.  Never heard of "mischief night" either.

I suppose I haven't lived anywhere long enough for obituaries to be
relevant. I rely on various mailing lists for obituaries of linguists.

I do hope to live here long enough for obituaries to be relevant.

I thought that's what they were called. They have them here--I know
people who run one, and it's just labeled Drive Through... it might be
beer only, though.

Then there was that game with the knife...peggly weggly or whatever. I might
have said "chicken" just because it reminds me of other chicken-like games,
but I guess I shouldn't have because this particular game I've never heard
of.

I also didn't have a word for the bug that skips along the top of the water.

The rubbernecking one was poorly constructed. I would call that a
"rubbernecking delay" (that's what they say on the radio here too) but that
wasn't an answer. They had a)"rubberneck", b)"rubbernecking" and something
like c)"rubbernecking" is the verb but I don't know what to call the traffic
jam caused by rubbernecking. Which just confused things...

"concentrator" is their word for "major".

Maybe it is a major? She is concentrating her studies in/on linguistics?

I always have thought that mumble-whatever-pag is an old-time game. I
know my father played it when young, which is partly how I've heard of
it. And it is in old kids' series books and things like Penrod. A game
from the glorious days when boys whittled and everyone carried a Boy
Scout knife. I wonder if it is played now at all.

Even though I think of the late 60's - early 70's as after the glorious
days, I whittled, carried a knife and was in the Boy Scouts.  We played
mumblety peg a little.

Three decades later, Ethan carries a cell phone, but no knife (or pistol,
as Jim noted), and plays Pokémon cards (he's Gym Leader) instead of being
in the Boy Scouts.

His big leisure time project right now is programming the behavior of a set
of vehicle avatars (truck, helicopter, etc.) which can be used to transport
goods in a virtual world populated by virtual creatures.  Before that, he
liked to tinker with the virtual creatures' simulated genomes and biochemistry.

Okay, I find it slightly scary that a kid his age even knows the word

Thucydides, THE PELOPONNESIAN WAR, 427 B.C.

"Words had to change their ordinary meanings and to take those which
were now given them. Reckless audacity came to be considered the courage
of a loyal supporter; moderation was held to be a cloak for unmanliness;
ability to see all sides of a question incapacity to act on any. Frantic
violence became the attribute of manliness; cautious
plotting a justifiable means of self-defense. The advocate of extreme
measures was always trustworthy; his opponent a man to be suspected."

B> Why are we assuming Red is a "he".  I'm picturing Red as a woman.

I guess because it does seem odd for a woman to follow football and call her
names,I'm yet to come across one,BTW,would it make a difference if Red were
to be a woman?
We do tend to build up an image of the person by the type of nic he/she
chooses,so it does seem fairly odd to not think of the person as we percieve
him,it just takes the fun out of the conversation.That's how I feel anyway..

Most people I know with nicknames did not choose them - their
friends/relatives/enemies chose them.

Oops. Dead bird.

Although the tampon was introduced as an OTC product in the early 1930s, and
a major marketing campaign initiated in the mid-30s, it a long time to catch
on. Two studies in the late 30s found that 4-6% of women attending a general
medical practice had ever used a tampon, and sales were sluggish. It wasn't
until 1947 that sales were high enough to warrant a separate category in the
registry of the Census of Manufactures. I don't know what % of women were
using tampons at that time, but it would make sense to assume that it wasn't
until the mid-fifties that use became mainstream.*

The author was comparing the early history of tampon use to the current
experience of the female condom.

Life is good when we have days like this. From a friend in Boston:


Someone sent out a nastygram about an ebayer purporting that a ratty
looking 1901 reprint of Titus Andronicus was possibly a first edition.
So instead of ridicuing them, i sent them a nice email informing them
that it couldn't
possibly be.  The seller was most pleased to find this out and then I
asked them if they needed any other help identifying books to contact
me.
this is what I got:

>Thank You,
>I do have others, One is a phrenology Book...I also have one that I am Afraid to OPEN! I was told it is Pig
>or Lamb skin covered and that the Pages are very thick yet Fragile! It is a Very Scary book to me because
>from What I CAN see of the Title it looks to be some sort of Magickal or Satanic Ritual book.
>Would you know of these kinds of Books?

We don't know all that many people here and many that we are friends with
are younger than are we, so it's more likely that they will be reading our
obituaries.  However, I at least scan the obits in our local paper.  Many
of them concern people who lived here all or most of their lives or were
otherwise influential on the island and who lived well into their 80s or
more.  Their personal histories are closely tied to the history of MDI and
its villages; the writers do a good job of presenting all of this.

My brother in law--I will call him CP from now on, in accordance
with his initials, and also in accordance with an in-joke between
my sister and me--CP called, and suddenly I was transported to
another world. He had been late to come home, so didn't call.
They had all gone to see "Oklahoma!"--front-row seats.

It was a state-sponsored trip, and I guess the state department
doesn't mess around. I liked their itinerary. For instance, who
the hell gets to live with a Quaker family? But he did.

So he was now at the UN headquarters and he would call me in the
afternoon. Etc etc. I was relieved about Oklahoma!, that's for
sure. Some ass had told CP that The Lion King was not to be missed,
and was pretty much the major reason to visit New York. I felt a
bit better about my chances of talking him out of it. On the other
hand, the note of shopping was stressed, which stressed me out. At
any rate, I put the phone down, and walked to the train, and got
off at 79th.

It was a very beautiful day. Shooting a disdainful glance at Zabar's,
I walked to the River's Edge hotel, for no other reason than that
Dr Borkin had unwittingly endorsed the park beyond. I walked to the
park to look at the river, and, well, looked at the river, and read
a few more pages of Don Quijote. It is a hilarious book, by the way.
Any similar thing seems pathetic and pale compared to it. And very
few things seem dissimilar. This has all been said before, of course.
If you wish to read a story of the free spirit and the open road--
throw out whatever you have and read this book.

It was quiet, green and golden, with silent monoliths of mansions
rising behind and a blue river in front. A few boats later I
reluctantly got up. Couldn't take too much relaxation, I think,
with all that was going on. You know, inside. Or maybe it is
congenital. I felt I should walk around. "You make a great deal
of sense, Sancho", maybe the voice of hunger told me. My father
used to call me Sancho.

I walked to Barney Greengrass (gain, courtesy of Marie). I liked
it. It is a civilized place. But I am not sure I should use the
big word "civilized" for a small meaning; I only mean it is simple,
a simply dressed guy can quickly get a table at 1 o'clock on a
cool, brilliant afternoon, it is filled but quiet and airy, the
waiter speaks simply, and the food is good. I ate eggs, whitefish
and salmon. It truly was excellent.

Barney Greengrass is not a fake name; I think "Barney" runs the
place. He has a face which I associate with good food, in Chicago
at least. As usual, I had an added advantage--I could speak easily
to the "help". Must have been from Bangladesh--he certainly didn't
have a problem with someone rapaciously picking the fish clean.

When I first came to America I ended up too often in chintzy-
upscale restaurants, where it seemed like they *disapproved*
of eating everything on your plate. And so, if I have any food-
related dimension to my memories, it is the gradual discovery
of quiet places where they like people who eat. Needless to say,
I haven't had to go on a separate search for food that hits the
spot.

I walked across the park, along the reservoir, to the Guggenheim.
By now there wasn't the slightest question of getting lost; I
had gotten my autopilot. It is when you dissolve in the city.
Maybe it takes two or three trips. When you do, street and park,
water and land, people and benches come together.

The lines were too damn long. I just ran into the shop and bought
a few small things, for friends. Museum stores are the best, right,
for trinkets? And I frankly didn't feel all that interested in the
Art of the Motorcycle or the evolution of Giorgio Armani's print
ads. We readers of Don Quijote go to the Frick instead. I made
that plan, walked around a bit and took the train back.

  * * *

Reports of snipers, and panic or defiance, sounds of college girls
echoing round the floor (must have been a reunion), and a little
patch of light on the floor--it was all intermingled as I dozed
and waited for a call.

  * * *

In the evening I finally met CP. It's been two years; also, he had
never seen me with a shaved head. Strange! Though maybe it's much
better put this way: I had never really gotten to know him. That
finally happened in New York.

My fear had no basis, of course. He laughed when the subject of
The Lion King came up. Laughed, because we didn't know each other
so well that he could say screw that. And when I asked how he
would feel about Birdland, he agreed at once. So we walked--we
walked a lot--and he had some quite interesting stories too, from
India and from his trip here. I had a good time. And more importantly,
I knew my sister would be pretty happy to hear this ...

Birdland had an as-you-expect kind of band; highly polished music,
but basically, should I say, Ellingtonian? It was great. Once upon a
time, I have read on liner notes, this place was a fount of invention,
and so we went. What's "place" anyway, they have relocated. I fed
him gumbo--with everything being new to him, food was not going to
be a problem--and I had catfish with greens. I had a great good time.
I asked him how he felt, and he said, six or seven hundred notes and
a good dinner, what was there to complain. Ha ha, excellent answer...
This was going to be blast. I told him all I could remember about the
place from my bookish reading, as we walked to his hotel. And I dropped
him off, took the train, had a couple of pts at Fitzers, and was fast
asleep shortly thereafter.

  * * *

Appendix 1: My much-maligned brother-in-law

Sister warning: May attach a lot of importance to how you
  dress, don't be a dork.
Reality: NOT. He just thought *I* was like that. A natural
  hypothesis in the absence of relevant information.

Sister warning: Don't let him near any consumer crap, he
  will shop till he drops.
Reality: Not consumer crap. GADGETS. What an insult to a
  crucial difference ... And none bought anyway. Precisely
  as it should be.

A fervent appeal to sisters everywhere!

  * * *

Appendix 2: The degradation of "Girls' Night Out"

Just bitching ... time was--or was there ever a time--when a jazz
"lounge" would mean tough ch*ks. Like thrift stores, they are
practically one of the reasons one goes--they light up your heart
and leech out your bitterness just by being there. The party near
us was the opposite. And the fug of perfume was dense enough to
stick your fork into, and they talked ear-splittingly, above the
music. I contend that that was wrong. And what is it about New York
and EMPTY places? A place like Birdland, in Chicago, on a Friday
night, would be overflowing. And ear-splitting talkers of mundane
nonsense would be asked to take it out of earshot.

  * * *

Appendix 3: The ancestor of dotcoms

So did you ever wonder how it came to be that sad smoldering dotcoms
had so quickly engendered gross, overspecialized jobs? How did mere
"plucky startups" bristle with managers who had never worked on the
floor, for instance? Take it from a visitor who saw the insides--it
derived from ... THE MEDIA. American TV stations actually have tech
managers who have never held a camera. There is no dearth of people
who leave at 5, or say "that's not my field", or "that's not my job".
And these outfits may be sad, but they are not smoldering at all.
Have you ever wondered why?

Thank you for setting aside your novel just for a little while. I'd like
to know more about your shopping-the clothes, the gadgets. There is a
Day 3, isn't there?

book-dealing, like almost every other field, has its share of dolts who are
in it solely for the money or who can't figure out anything else to

That still is true of actual bookdealers. But what we have now is the
ability for anyone at all to sell books about which they know nothing on
ebay or amazon, even if they don't know that Shakespeare predated 1901.
That is why life for the rest of us, whose profession it is, becomes
difficult. We should not all be tarred with the same brush, but that is
what's happening.

This bookseller drop-shipped the book for a customer. Did not know where
it was going. Today he received this letter:


U.S. Department of Justice
Federal Bureau of Prisons
2425 So 200th Street
SeaTac, WA  98189

This is notification to sender/publisher of RETURN of a publication.
The Mail Room has
returned the publication  "Hacksaw - The Amazing Story of America's
Great Escape
Artists"  in accordance with the Bureau's Program Statement in Incoming
Publications (PS
5266.08) which states in part:

"The warden may reject a publication if it is determined detrimental to
the security,
good order, or discipline of the institution or if it may facilitate
criminal activity."

The above named publication has been rejected because it facilitates the
possibility of
escape, and is not authorized in accordance with the Institutional
policies.

Sincerely,
(sig)
Warden

I'd never heard of this "Birdland". I don't know how long it's been there on
44th Street, but I'm thinking not long. Did you eat at Virgil's while you
were in the neighborhood?

Glad you enjoyed Barney Greengrass.

I guess I'm just <young at heart>, but I really don't know anyone older than

I don't remember it, but then I have not been around midtown in 20
years. It seems to be a very big-time place, if you read the Googles.

    Birdland 315 West 44th Street (btwn. 8th and 9th) 212-581-3080
        All show times: 9:00 and 11:00 P.M. (with early 5:30 tribute
sets added to the Mon., Tues. and Fri. schedules). Music charge
        varies, $20-35. There is a $10 food/drink minimum per person at
the tables. At the bar, the music charge includes one drink.
        Sundays belong to Arturo O'Farrill’s Afro-Cuban Jazz Big Band,
Mondays have been reserved for the Toshiko Akiyoshi Jazz
        Orchestra featuring Lew Tabackin for the later sets, and now
every Monday from 5:30 - 7:30pm - The Art Blakey Jazz
        Messenger's Revue perform. Tuesdays typically go to The Famous
Duke Ellington Orchestra directed by Paul Mercer Ellington
        with early sets at 5:30 - 7:30 p.m. showcasing David Ostwald's
Louis Armstrong Centennial Band. From Wednesday - Saturday
        expect the best in local and internationally touring artists.
Just added: Every Friday from 5:30 - 7:30pm - Lew Anderson's All
        American Big Band. All will enjoy the excellent sightlines to
the stage.

Yep ... on all sorts of liner notes, as I said. Now it seems to

didn't know that they had opened a Birdland in midtown.

Hi Natalie,

A comment on 'roots' used in the geneology sense.  I've quite often heard
it in the phrase "set down some roots".  "Put down" is sometimes used as
well to indicate establishing a home.

I call a drive-through liquor store a drive-through liquor store.

I called mine Bussy/Bussie.  I think I usually spelled it Bussy, but she
spelled it Bussie.  That vowel is [U] -- as in "pussy."  She got that
name from my brother before I was born.  All anybody can figure out
about why he started calling her that was that her husband sometimes
called her "Flossie" (her name was Florence) and that's what he was
trying to say.  Anyway, it stuck.  She was never anything but Bussy to
me.

I would assume it to mean a student concentrating in a certain area --
i.e., majoring in it.  And I would guess undergraduate.  I noticed that
that website was somebody's personal page, not a departmental page.

Yep.  An undergraduate:

Going backwards from the survey page leads you to his removed home page
with a message saying to go to the above url.

I think of it as commonly known, although I don't know that I've ever
played it personally.  I remember once saying about somebody that I was
outraged when he seemed to be on the verge of playing mumblety peg on my
coffeetable.  It never occurred to me to think that that wouldn't be
understood.

I was talking about the World Cup, though I erroneously said it was
every summer.

I can think of ways it might be useful -- like if maybe a surprisingly
large number of responses for a certain usage were clumped in an
unexpected location, one might go there and do real research to see what
was going on.

I wonder which age group was most likely to get into tampon-use first.
What I'm thinking about is that my crowd started using them in the late
'50s, which would perhaps be about right for Mississippi in relation to
more avant-garde places.  But we were teenagers.  It may have been that
older women used them earlier than teenagers.  Then again, it may have
been that teenagers used them earlier than older women.

Huh? Just go to <http://www.googlism.com>, and type in a random
name. Gets old fast, though ... Which is of course because it
has absolutely no further features--a characteristic of "zany
humor" sites.

I hear you. Mine died just before her 100th birthday, and I don't even want
to get *that old*. I'm really ready to go very soon, as this is more like
excisting, not living, and death has never scared me.

As it happens, we have concentrators at UT. Students majoring in any of
the IDP (Interdisciplinary Programs) areas are listed as IDP majors - each
is concentrating in a particular area - Linguistics, Judaic Studies,
Cinema Studies, etc. We have not previously used the word as a noun - but
if Hahvahd can do it, so can we. I shall inform our Lx students that they
are henceforth Linguistics concentrators (even spellcheck likes it).

That's nothing.  Here's ours:

Occasional snow early...then partly cloudy. Total accumulation...3 to 6

The Republicans are expected to win Maine anyway, though, aren't they?
Hmm.  I'm not sure why my "though" is in there.  They're going to win
here also, alas, rain or no rain.

Susan Collins, the Republican senator, is expected to retain her
seat.  However, there is one very close race for House of

Alyce is a might forgetful sometimes!
Don't feel bad; happens to me too.
I have problems with some words (quite ordinairy words)
I know what I want to say; I can almost see it in front of me,
(as if there were some kind of blackboard before me), but the
word refuses to come out. But it doesn't happen when I write.

So far not a flake.  Not even a flurry.  I was really looking forward to
waking up to a world gone white:

..Winter Weather Advisory is cancelled... significant precipitation will
remain east of the area...thus the Winter Weather Advisory has been
cancelled for this morning. Some light rain or snow will change to light
snow with little or no snow accumulation expected this morning.

You can have some of our precipitation, although I'm not sure you want
it.  I don't remember any fall of my life when we've had this much
rain.  It's pouring today.

Thanks, Samant.

You know what?  It's pretty nice to know that except for Nana, my
dad, and my siblings, everyone else with the last name of Mandell
is not a close relative.

Hi,

I cannot understand, yet, where these googlisms are taken from, but here
are some of mine:

"sarv is trusted by 15 members" - meebers, I hope

"sarv is known by his alter ego 'fat [...?]"

"sarv is always in teine sahtel" Hmm... "teine sahtel" means
"another/the other drawer". Is there something I must take into account?

Then there is something said in Dutch

"sarv is not available" -- as to this service, Google seems to be only
too right

I hope I didn't take off all the fun from Tushar who seemed to be the
one who picked and chose googlisms.

Strange. Always we have voted at the town hall. I just went to the town
hall where there were no cars--not a soul around. There was a crayoned
sign hanging on a string on a post saying "Voting at Activity Building."
So, I went back down the road a bit and arrived at the Activity
Building. There was absolutely no sign of voting. I mean, usually there
are blue signs that say "Polling Place" and then those placards that say
"No electioneering withing X feet." Nada. There are no windows, so that
you could see if anyone was in there. There is no big front door, only
sort of a small door on the side near the parking lot, so I went in
there and there were the election ladies. But no signs at all. Why?
There were only about four cars, too, so you wouldn't think, "Oh! I
think I will go where all the traffic is."

Anyway, we have two districts--I was #169 in District 1. Don't know how
many have voted in District 2. I suspect that many people will not vote
because they won't know where to go.

I just came home from voting.  I vote at a
church on a pominent corner on a major
street leading out of the city.

There were no cars in the parking lot,
except about 3 for the ballot ladies.

I was the only voter there.

My friend who lives *5 houses down the street* from me, a mere 11

Boundaries have to fall somewhere. Somebody on the redistricting
commmittee figured out carefully who s/he wanted to be in your district
and the other one.

Nobody shifted our polling place---the municipal/court building, so we
found it easily.  We voted fairly early---about 10 or so.  There seemed to
be a fairly good turnout---probably because one U.S. Senate seat as well as
the governor's spot is contested.

There were about four people at the polling place when I went this morning.
And we also have a Governor's race going on. Lame lame lame. On primary day,
we voted in the early evening, and the volunteers told us that only nine
people people had come in all day. Of course, I live in a commuting district
and most probably vote after they get home at night, but still...

Well, we're on the same block, I guess that's why it seems odd. I
wonder if it's because he's on the other side of the street.

Anyway, I got to tease him because he's voting at an elementary school
and I'm voting at a JC.

> It is about time that you returned.

"Please excuse my coming late" we were taught to say at school when we had
been late at an English lesson. As an excuse I am prepared to use a sentence
from Janet's message from Oct 24:

>You notice it took me two or three months after my last return
>from NY to go mail again.

I started reading words-l post soon after my coming back from Scotland,
sometimes receiving messages and sometimes at ftp archives, till the site
expired, always rather apt to start writing messages, but not carrying out
that good intention for fair of not being able to stay and answer messages
addressed to me. There was much to do, of course, after being away for a
fortnight. So, there must be more of those messages that I haven't read than
those I have.

> Please give us a report on all
> that you have done during your absence.

And I was a bit afraid of that nice request, too. Am I the only one here who
has never sent any WHTMs? Certainly, the trip filled me with impressions
that perhaps are not settled in me even by now yet, and I've thought I must
look through not only all the notes I made on that trip (I made less of them
than I thought before, to my surprise, btw), but also all the tourist
information booklets I chose to take with me from here and there, and
re-experience the trip once more, here, at home.

Now, again , I maybe chose a bad time of the day for my return, for I plan
to go home from the office after about a half an hour... (this like a chorus
in my msgs)

Meanwhile I've been  exhilarated by some good concerts, some CD's with
Britten's music I bought in York (one of the places I'd like to go once
more), and by my renewal of friendship with and awe towards Charles Dickens,
this time in English.

I said. Why him? Because it was at some time during my adult years that
I found that CD -- oh, no, I'd better write out his name --, that
Charles Dickens was not only the sentimental author of "Oliver Twist",
that is, that even "Oliver Twist" was not only a touching story, but
full of keen humour, let alone irony that I still understood, or
experienced, differently when young. Since that discovery I've planned
for years to read him in English, now at last I started it. It is
wonderful.

Only I guess, I must re-read them after some time, to look up all the
words I left unlooked during the first reading, to keep reading more or
less fluent.

Yeah. But there's nothing behind the other side of the street for a
mile or so except greenbelt--that's why it seems weird to me to split
it there.

        The opposite was true for us -- we went to the polling place, and
there was actually a *line*.  This has not been true the last 2 times we
voted there (not 2001, not even 2000).

        This may be due to some of the recent antics involving the county
council -- the incumbent Democrat lost the primary and endorsed the
Republican candidate instead of the Democrat who defeated him.  It may
also be because, due to redistricting, an incumbent Democrat whose
district didn't include us until recently has been campaigning to beat the
band among his new constituents.  Or it may just have been a statistical
fluke and the place was empty except when we were there.

        To add to the election shenanigans, my wife and I were on our way
back home after flying to South Dakota to see my dad get an award and be
at his retirement party, and our plane from Sioux Falls to Minneapolis had
to turn around because <W> was at the Minneapolis airport.  We went back
to Sioux Falls and refueled, then sat on the ground until it was <safe> to
return.  We got to Minneapolis about an hour and a half late and missed
our connecting flight, all because W had to make a taxpayer-funded
campaign stop for some other Republicans.  The airline put us on another
plane to Indianapolis, so we got home.  Later we found out that the same
thing had happened to <Fritz>, who made better use of his time in his
grounded airplane than we did in ours:

Now it is 11 p.m.

"...she vanished like a discontented fairy..."

though there is no more discontent on my part, of course, that the clock is

When I went to vote at 6 this morning they couldn't find me on the registration list. I
have never missed an election or a primary in the 30+ years I have been voting and I
have lived at the same address for 28 years.  I was prepared to be outraged (picture
THAT if you can).  It turns out that the two districts which share the lobby of the
school had decided to switch places and that I was just at the wrong table.

Thank you, Marie.  This stuff is pretty tasty.  I do note, however, that
there are 1190 calories in the one 10 ounce bag.  I shall go at it
slowly.  It arrived in good shape, in spite of its overly-large box.

I don't like my new voting place.  (It seems strange that this is the
first election since I moved over a year ago, but this was my first time
in the new place.)  I vote in a fire station now instead of in the back
of the electric company.  I liked the ambience of the old place.

> I was the only voter there.

My voting place was doing a pretty hopping business.  Usually I try to
vote as soon as it starts at 7 a.m., but today I didn't do that since I
didn't want to have to go way out to this fire station and then to
campus, making me probably not get to my office until 7:30.  So I voted
this afternoon.

Why is that bizarre?  If precincts are going to exist, lines have to be
drawn between them.

I'm still wishing that Marie would write a WHTM about her honeymoon trip,
especially The Lake District of England.   But I must not complain now that

Is the line perhaps the street, or are your across-the-street neighbors
in your same precinct?

But her honeymoon was to -- I've forgotten exactly where -- was it
Jamaica?  No, wait -- it was St. John's (as in VI, not as in NFLD).  Or
was it somewhere else?  Anyway, it was somewhere down in that general
direction.  That trip to England was later.

The lines?  That's like my question about how wide a state line is --
like which state would you be in if you died right on the line.

A man is shopping for gifts for his boss's two children.  The clerk asks
him whether they're male or female.  He pauses and thinks and remembers
some reference that makes him know that at least one of them is a boy.
He doesn't know about the other one, though.  What's the probability
that the other one is a girl?

That's kind of unclear--what I mean is this:

Temporarily introduce the notion of older and younger. When you
are told there is at least one boy, there are THREE cases which
are equally likely: boy and girl, girl and boy, boy and boy. In
two of those, the other's a girl.

    The weather in the GMA is severe clear and I'd say the turnout was
only moderate, especially since we're votin' fools here in the East
Valley. 30 second wait for a booth.  Took longer than that to establish
that I'm the JW on Enid, not the JW on Moro.  Only five minutes to go
through both sides - I do my homework, plus I blew off the judges -
including much last-minute moral tennis over all the gambling
propositions.

        I'm currently slogging through A Tale of Two Cities and
prepping a unit on it.  Blah.  I've never liked Dickens, and
I've especially never liked this particular book.

Nonetheless, according to Natalie's post, the only question is:  What is
the probability of the second child being a girl?  The only answer is: 50%
(or 0.50 for statistician types). Her question does not refer to possible
mixes, i.e., permutations/combinations---<<only>> to the sex of the second
child.  In this case, the sex of the "first" child, whether older or
younger, is irrelevant to the question at hand, because the sex of the
first has no effect on the sex of the second.

Moreover, the notion of older/younger has no bearing in this case, save
that you introduced it.  Also, think of the problem another way.  If
neither sex is known for certain, what is the probability that one will be
male and one female?  Again (ignoring some fine points of population
genetics), the answer is 0.50 (MM, FF, MF, FM).

I find it very odd that I haven't received any political phone calls at
all.  Zero.  It's not that they're not happening here.  I've heard lots
of local people complaining about them.  But I haven't gotten any.  Has
word spread that I hate telemarketing?  That didn't stop some woman from
calling me late this afternoon to ask whether I wanted to buy her group
insurance for my employees, of course.  I told her I didn't have any
employees.  So she then asked me if I wanted to get the insurance
myself.  I told her I was quite content with the state-employee group
insurance of which I partake -- as in I pay them money every month, not
as in they ever pay me any money, but then insurance is like that --
someday I may get <bad sick>.

Friends and fellow book dealers,

Wooden Spoon Books at 200 N. Fourth ave, Ann Arbor, MI is closing
sometime VERY soon,
possibly within two weeks.  The court did NOT see things my way.

We have at least 40,000 books to deal with plus fixtures.  We will sell
all inventory at 2/3 off to
legitimate book dealers.  We will sell large amounts, entire sections,
etc. at even greater discounts.

How can you not like Dickens? He is so ... lively (to quote a gentleman

That is exactly what a sociologist was saying as I was walking away when
this discussion was going on yesterday -- walking away because I had a
1:00 class to get ready for.  The sociologist said to the physicist,
"But you didn't mention older/younger."  The physicist said that the
problem many of us have in understanding probability is that it seems
counter-intuitive -- or maybe he said it's not intuitive.

He did say that we were ignoring fine points of population genetics in
this question.  I meant to get back to it today, but we were too busy
talking about how "Boston Public" suddenly improved last night.  I love
my lunch group.  Nobody is a stereotypical anything.  The physicist, for
example, is a really sharp and knowledgeable scientist, with a PhD from
Rice, yet he loves discussing "Boston Public" and "Survivor."  But if
the conversations drift to black holes or whatever, he goes with the
flow and enjoys those topics too.  Ditto everybody in the group.  We're
flowers.  Hmm.  I mean flow-ers.  The constitution of the group is also
fluid.  Regulars, meaning people there pretty much every day,
certain-dayers, as in people who come only on MWF or on TTh,
occasionals, as in people who come occasionally, etc.

I agree with the one claiming Jane Austen as better.  Her little "three
inches of ivory," or whatever it was Sir Walter Scott (?) said about

I have grown to dislike her intensely, since the only time I hear from

I've already voted, which makes it worse.

Ok, so after posting this stuff to the list, I decided I'd better make
sure I wasn't screwing it up.  Here's what he said in reply to my e-mail

I didn't mean that the man on "American Tongues" mentioned that.  But I
did have it stuck in my head that Scott had.  Now I remember why I had

involving some kind of comparison of Scott and Austen and using that
ivory thing in the title.

Since I wrote that, it's moved up from 0%.  Things move rapidly in this

"Using the exit polls results and a number of sophisticated analysis
techniques, VNS also projects winner for each race it covers. CNN will not
use exit polls to make projections in close races. CNN will only use exit
poll survey data to project a winner when that data indicates one of the
candidates has a significant lead at the time that the polls close in that
state."

        My husband the republican has been getting union propaganda
(he hates unions and is a registered gop), and I've been
getting right wing stuff (I'm a registered dem).  Somebody
got their lists crossed somewhere.

        I actually voted libertarian in a couple races today.  Eeek.

I was going to vote for Richardson, the independent candidate for
governor, but his tacky ad about Steve Largent turned me off, so
I voted for the Democrat candidate.  Richardson's ad said that
while the Towers were destroyed, Largent was on vacation.  So,
he was on vacation; he couldn't have predicted that the Towers
would fall; he's neither a telepath or a precognative.

Anti-union and GOP aren't synonymous (as I'm sure you realize).  I've
never quite understood unions and thus don't want to go so far as to say
I'm *anti*-them.  But I'm not pro-them.  I grew up thinking of unions as
sleazy organizations that took money from hard-working laborers.  I
think that is probably not a totally fair assessment, but I'm not sure
that it's totally off the mark either.

Re registering by party, we don't do that.

I voted Reform in one race as a last-minute thought.  I really don't
hate Thad Cochran and have in fact voted for him on more than one
occasion when there wasn't a decent alternative, but I just wasn't in
the mood to say yes to any Republican today.

Advertising to hire.  But did they hire anybody?  I've never known
anybody in my ftf life who has encountered an exit poll-taker.  Are they
common?  As in have the rest of you encountered them?  I know they exist
but have never checked on how many there are.  That info is no doubt
available on the web.

I haven't either.  But they generally need only a small sample to give a
good guess.

Late-breaking news: VNS bailed on exit polling today, deciding they
couldn't trust it: <http://www.salon.com/news/wire/2002/11/05/vns/>
(thanks, Google, for searching today's news for me!).  CNN still has AP and
in "10 key states," RealVote, to fall back on.

And yet, this morning, CNN was saying, "We will not be making
projections." Added to that is the fact that their VNS service that
usually provides the statistics for the projections didn't do so tonight
because it said its computers were not analyzing their data properly.
When Jeff Greenfield announced that about 5 pm, he said it meant that it
would be a long night because projections would be totally impossible.

Uh huh.

Not necessarily, if it is conditional on other information. My claim
is that it is indeed dependent on the "at least one is a boy" event.

That is not what is given. The sex of a GIVEN child is not given.
The information is: there is one boy among the two. The question
is: is there a girl among the two? Quite different from asking,
how likely is a given child a girl.

That was for clarifying the problem. I think YOU are introducing
it, implicitly, by marking the children.

How about this: take the population of all two-kid families. A
quarter of them are boy-boy families, and a quarter are girl-girl.
So half are boy-and-girl families. Now take out the girl-girl
families. What remains? Twice as many families with a girl as
families with no girl.

        Yes.  I know it is essentially voting for nobody, but my
other alternative would have been voting for nobody... I
just couldn't cast for the major party candidates and not
need a shower after.

He blames the unions for the collapse of the steel industry
in Youngstown.  The unions contributed, but the issues are
more complex than that. On the other hand, his uncle founded
the communication workers union, and he has been bitching
lately about how the the union folks at SBC aren't taking
the pay cuts, forced unpaid vacation, and reduction in
benefits that he is taking as management. I have mixed
feelings about unions -- I think in the long run they've
caused improvements in working conditions and the expansion
of the blue collar middle class, but I don't think the ends
always justify the means.  In Missouri, unlike most states,
I have the option of whether or not I want to join a
teacher's union.

Germantown made the Albany ABC news tonight. Our school psychologist has

Yep.  This is what he said he did in class (large classes) when his
students were having trouble understanding.  When they were skeptical,
he had them do shows of hands re their own families.  He said they

The truth is that even Spencer could make a pretty safe projection in
the particular race I was talking about -- Thad Cochran vs an unheard-of
Reform Party candidate.  What I thought was tacky, though, was for the
projection checkmark to be there on the web page with the total votes
tallied as zero.

I haven't turned on tv tonight.  Is it any more up-to-date than the
cnn.com?  Too late to turn it on now, though.  I'm going to bed pretty
soon.

Does anybody have a nice dentist?  I thought my dentist was
nice, but I took Ana in today and there were a lot of
comments about how long it has been since her last visit
(about 15 months).  I should have had her in sooner, but the
majority of the time was because Kevin was out of work.
Also, he didn't take time to talk to me, and her permanant
teeth are coming in and I had some questions that were
dismissed with a "she'll need orthodontics."  Well, DUH, I
know that.  I really just wanted some assurance that the
field had advanced sufficiently so that she doesn't have to
go through what I went through (I had 8 permanant teeth
removed and ugly, painful braces for 3 years).  He used to
be nice...I think... but then I've never had a really
personable dentist.  Do they exist?  Should I be taking
SBC's insurance money elsewhere?  I mean, I hate for him to
lose business because it isn't like the practice is all that
busy... I can usually get appointments for the next day, and
that's kinda nice, too.

I have no idea how I teach all day.  I have no people
skills.  Maybe I have two personalities or something.

PS:  And don't forget that Juniper Sage was a pseudonym for (who?  some
writer in the '40s?).  It seems more likely to me for the M to be real
than for somebody to be named after an obscure psyedonym.

Do most states have teachers' unions?  I never worked anywhere that did,
but then I worked in only a few states.

Isn't that a major red flag??  I think it's good when a dentist (or any
other tooth or body person) makes sure that his/her schedule allows for
emergency visits on short notice, but a regular appointment the next
day??  I'd say something is mightily strange.  I would expect three or
four months lead time for just a standard visit.

        I don't know.  I think most districts join one of the
national unions like the NEA or AFT.  Missouri has a state
union because it was the only one that didn't vote to join
up with the NEA in the 70's -- so I can be in the MSTA, NEA,
or AFT (but the MSTA is the union with a presence in my
district, so presumably that's the one I should belong to).
  I believe you worked in K12 before all that happened?

My dentist is okay for me, and I've had him
for  40 years.  But one of my kids
didn't like him and went to someone else
when he was in high school.

Btw have you ever seen the movie
"The Dentist"?   Once you've seen it, some
of the scenes are easily brought back to mind.
Really bad.

Is it?  I just figured we had too many dentists around here.
  We only had one in town when I was growing up (one of his
eight children was in my class -- had a crush on him for a
while).  I can get appointments within a week with my
regular doctor, but we've got a doctor's office on every
other corner, and he's the only D.O. within a reasonable
driving distace.  My OB when I had Ana had a 9 month waiting
period for a first appointment with her.  I thought that was
insane, but she was the only woman OB in the county at that
time, so it made sense.

Yes.  I taught in k-12 '65-'69.  AFT existed then as a union.  I had
heard of it but knew pretty much nothing about it.  NEA existed as an
ordinary professional organization, not a union.

        I think you just pre-date the unionization movement wrt
teachers.

So it's counterintuitive. No big deal ... Now consider the (as it
is, unverified) statistic from the early 80's that among felonies
in Bombay, 80% were Muslim names. Now you see a Muslim. What are
the chances he will perpetrate something? High, "significantly"
high, shrieked all the sturdy common-sensical people around me.
Profile them! I grew up hearing this, thus working up total
contempt for "common sense".

Nothing much happened in the morning. All I did was walk in a
direction I hadn't until then--which would mean east--and finally
give in and get a cup of coffee from Starbucks. The only other
coffee shop which looked promising from afar turned out empty,
dusty and with a for-sale sign stuck on the window. New York's
fallen to Starbucks, no doubt about it. It has only prevailed
over Hard Rock Cafe (which I *think* I saw), by keeping it
cramped within decorous and mannerly confines. The Kinkos
and the Cosi cafés are all over. It didn't escape the Magic
Wipe of the 90s after all--and it's looking shiny and child-
friendly. But that didn't make me panic, and that was good
enough.

Everyone was talking into their cell phone, nobody was reading
anything on the trains--unless you count a Cosmopolitan here and
a Bridget Jones there--and the high pitch of activity which I
remembered, or thought I did, had not shown up anywhere. It felt
smaller, is what. Granted, this city took a bad and traumatic hit,
but I think it was really the short glitzy, depersonalizing era
which actually did it.

We met up at the diner next door, ate, and strode into the park.
We talked about a lot of things for 20 blocks or so, and finally
reached the house of the Frick Collection. We split up--no other
way to do it. It feels like I spent a little more time looking
at the gadgets this time. Or should I simply say clocks? Among
the "objects" I only found the clocks impressive. The vases etc
looked plain, or even ugly.

Maybe I only wanted a break from the descriptions of paintings
which were tumbling out of the handset. I cracked up when I
first switched it on--so ridiculously upper-crust a voice, so
*British*, and with an unassailable lisp. I got the image of a
darling of all Oxford as he lisped from hall to hallowed hall.
And finished the thesis when 24, probably... I am saying I found
it funny not stupid. The voice also suggested "I could be a total
prick if I wanted to", and such a voice is fine. It's a great
antidote to the fadedness that surrounds us.

I was so blind before. I am glad I spent all the time I wanted,
staring at the Holbeins, Rembrandts and Vermeers. And the English
painters. Now I begin to understand approximately what they were
after, and for which you must have complete respect. And now I
also see that some good can come of surrounding yourself with
useless excessive beauty--at least if, at least in death, you
open it up to the public. I will go again. Time passed sort of
fast. Still, my feet were aching. Sitting down on the train was
a relief.

Again, by the good luck that permeated the whole trip, we got
to the Brooklyn Bridge at the perfect time. And now my brother
in law couldn't resist it. The cam came out. And so we had the
most punctuated walk ever over the bridge, stopping at every
spot which gave any kind of "angle". And I took innumerable
pictures--of other people, with their cameras. It was a smoother
walk after the lights started coming on over the highways and
the city, spread out magnificently and dizzyingly below, and
that's when I finally had a brief moment of that "high pitch"
of bustle that I had pretty much given up on.

If New York is to be homologized to Bombay, then of course
Brooklyn is where I grew up. Well, it sounds funny to say
it, that's all. So I said. We walked around, got a bit lost,
laughed at the "Kennedy Fried Chicken" shack, with a "JFK"
logo, agreed immediately on the point that an Indian must
be behind this "branding", har har, then found a station
and took the train back, to somewhere in the middle of
Chinatown. It had gotten dark.

What to do but to walk around again. We walked all over the
map. Going through Soho, again it felt like it had been Magic-
Wiped. He felt it too, and he has not been here before. He
said it felt more like a movie set--yes, that's exactly what
it was, it was too much of chrome and dark glass and little
black dresses. And most weirdly, Indian restaurants made
quaint.

So we were talking about man and his terroir, and what not,
and gradually realizing we were very hungry. I finally brought
it up, and no place looked particularly right. We had already
agreed we wouldn't go to the Red Cat or anything, we wanted a
simple place. Finally, as it does, came a time when we were
going to eat at "whatever is on the next block". Which is how
we ended up at Katz's.

Or, as I like to think, hunger brought us there.

So, I still hadn't come across anything which didn't make me
absolutely stupid-happy--I had forgotten about Katz's, honestly,
it was not on the plan. We went in, and as is the right thing
to do, sat at a waited-on table. Maybe we had a slightly different
intuition about the place. But it felt completely like home turf.
The cam came out again--somewhere, there is some professional
coverage of being inside Katz's, ha ha ...

It was some wild dog eating. Pastrami, beef--gone, all gone.
Cucumbers, pickles--disgustingly gone. Root beer, gone. No
fries though--we have religious purity laws. I made the very
difficult decision to drink again that night. Such a foundational
plan is wasted, absolutely wasted, without the elevation that
is Guinness stout.

Hoo. We somehow got our fat asses out of the chairs, and we
moved around for a while again, and I tried to locate where
I'd stayed the last time I was there and failed, we went past
McSorley's again, we cracked up at the site of sardars playing
sitars in basement restaurants, and finally somewhere far more
north, we got on the train.

  * * *

So, yes--I couldn't get rid of that feeling, that somehow it was
far more generic now. Or far less Jewish, maybe. Or maybe I hadn't
really gone into a *neighborhood*. So many people acting like they
were living inside Friends, or Sex and the City. So few old brick
walls to buildings, or something ... so little dust or trash. Or
something. Too many Indians, too, maybe that gave it a different
feeling for me.

Indians have gelled into a substantial community now--rich, poor,
blue, white, vapid, zesty, conservative, liberal, everything. I
wonder, will some great prose or poetry spring out of this sometime?
I mean, just--words out of the city, so to say. It would mean a
lot to me if this happened. Even in Chicago, where I live has in
five years become quite a hive of Pakistani people (among others--
Ethiopians, Nigerians, Cambodians, Russians etc), and it's very...
transplanted from the old world, to put it roughly. But it's not
Jewish. I hardly know what I mean. There is a buzz, but I don't
hear people really arguing about history or language or art, or
even politics in any real sense, or groping towards a vision, or
trying to solve something difficult. So, this happened in Jewish
ghettoes? That would be a good question only if it weren't so
vague. And maybe it's happening in these "ghettoes" and I am
too dumb, or too blinded by pre-conceived fictions, to see it.
Look, I was there to have a good time.

  * * *

I should remember always to put in a non-story from the pub. This
is about a couple sitting near the fireplace. Actually there is no
fireplace, but it is so obviously where the "fireplace" would be.
They looked so ... grim and complicated. Never knew anybody could
be that way, except some of these old Swedish couples who live
around here ... It is the reason I watched them.

Before leaving, the man comes to the bar for a last order. He asks
for "a plain lager", and, after much hesitation, a whiskey. What
whiskey, asks the girl. Woman. Jack Daniels, says the man, looking
like someone who has quickly changed his mind. More precisely, like
an entirely whiskey-faced drunk ass who has felt his wallet. She
pours it, he peers at the thin sliver at the bottom of the glass.
He asks how that came to be. It's a "shot", she says.

I get the fleeting idea of buying one more to go into the glass.
Don't disturb the universe... I work in New York, daddy, is the
tone of what she says. I really liked her so much. A drop of
water in it, says the old man. You had to be there to appreciate
the exact way she hosed down that glass--enough to make it look
substantial, not so much that it lost the shimmer. Sharp as a
whip. It's how I became such a drunk--by finding that there are
places where drunks are understood.

Even in Chicago, where I go, at exactly the right time, a new
glass magically appears. At the time when you are not sure you
want another, none appears. I don't think I am even visible to
her really, as someone separate, but somehow, psychically, she
does it. People might drink for various reasons, but one main
reason is that it gives you the experience of violently falling
in love. It's short-lived, and abstract, but what more do you
want.

I drew the lesson that had to be drawn from these musings, viz.
I was fluthered, bat-eyed, or spaychless, or elephants, or had
had quantum sufficio. The next day was going to be suburban mall
day, and it was time I faced up to it.

Yes, his reasoning is perfect.

Strangely, though, Clyde's answer would be correct for subatomic particles,
which follow a different law of statistics.

That could be, I guess, but I'd check it out.  Ask around -- as in ask
friends and neigbhors about their dentists.

Probably.  I'd be surprised to hear that teachers around here are in
unions, though I've never really inquired.

I'd say that this is not counterintuitive.  It's just stupid.  It's like
not understanding that all redheads have bad tempers isn't the same as
everybody who has a bad temper is a redhead.

Which is better -- doing that or just not voting at all?  I was
wondering about that yesterday when I heard a couple of people say they
weren't going to bother to vote because there was nobody on the ballot
they wanted to support.

Good.  I'm not going to delete this yet.  Want to savor it again when I
get home this afternoon.  One quick question, though:  Did you take
pictures of the spot on the BB where Marie and *uc* decided to get
married?

        I think it indicates that whatever percentage of the voters
who go Libertarian or Green feel the parties aren't meeting
their needs for some reason.

        I think taking the straight party vote is kinda cynical, too.

I agree with you.

Why?  I can't see it as cynical if all the candidates on the ballot that
you want to vote for happen to be in the same party.  Nor can I see it
as cynical if you believe that supporting all the candidates in a
particular party is supporting that party's platform in general and you
want to support it.

The one pleasing result from yesterday's voting:



132 DISTRICTS     132 REPORTED        (100.0%)
 MEMBER OF ASSEMBLY-119TH-ONONDAGA                TOTAL VOTES -    36,248

                                        VOTES    %        TOTAL
 WILLIAM E SANFORD________  REP      12,102 ( 40.8)     14,805
 JOAN K CHRISTENSEN_______  DEM      20,132 ( 59.1)     21,441


An editorial in the Post Standard this morning says:

 Perhaps the election results had something to do with Sanford's tenure in the
Onondaga County Legislature. For years, his to-hell-with-the-city attitude affected his
comments and votes. Perhaps voters in the city - a major part of the new district -
simply remembered that. Sometimes things come around.

I have a marvelous dentist. He bought the practice of my previous very
nice and quite good dentist when he retired - this one is even better. He
is the one who found my mother's first tumor - and thereby probably saved
her life.

He is ex-military, and a few people find him somewhat brusque - I
don't. I also like the fact that we can email about things - including
next year's projected expenses.

I don't think it matters. Voters who couldn't stomach voting
Democratic is why the Republicans won what they need. I'm not looking
forward to the next six years.

That wasn't my honeymoon. We honeymooned in the Caribbean. The UK trip was
the next year in 2000. If only I had taken better notes...

(didn't I write at least a little about it after returning?)

I've had nice dentists all my life.   My childhood dentist had his office
on the second floor of an old building on the main street of Sheboygan,
Wisconsin.  I had lots of cavities.  He used to sing "my bonnie lies over
the ocean" to me as he worked on my mouth.   I had a nice dentist in Oak
Ridge who did wonderful gold caps.  The dentist here in Bar Harbor is nice
also.  He is impressed with my gold caps and tells me to take good care of
them.  He filled a cavity for me just last Monday.

Wow.  How come so many kids need orthodontics these days?

Yes, maybe.  What does Ana say?

Who was questioning Natalie's mind? She's got it right. We honeymooned in
St. Thomas. We swam, snorkeled, jet-skied, jacuzzied, beached, drank BBCs
and Tropical Delights, read, hammocked, and, well, you know wink wink.
Pretty much just decompressed and got used to the idea that we'd married one
another. An idea which still startles me at times.

We have sufficient dentists here too.  And not all that many people in
residence in November.  There was an opening to get my cavity done the
morning after it was discovered during the six-month cleaning.  But I opted
to wait until the next opening which was four days away.  However, I think
Natalie makes a good point.  This guy doesn't seem very busy.  Can you ask
some mothers of other little girls what dentist they use?

Yes, you said you had a nice time and liked the Lake District.  But that
was about it.  One of the main things I'd like to know is if you really
liked the place you stayed in the Lake District and if you would stay there
again.  We've been there twice and each time I felt like we could have done
better on the accommodations without a good clue as to what that better
would be.

Also:  did you hike?  did you love the stone walls?  did you see lots of
sheep?  did it rain all the time?   did you love Scotland?  did you see
stone circles?

Also, dear Marie, I can't read the handwriting on the note with my Moose
Munch.  I got everything but the last word:   "Bonniemae ---   Please
forgive my dilatoriness.  I am very bad at matters requiring the p.o. or
actual visits to the ????.   --- Marie"

I think it is cute that people on this service call me Bonniemae.  I was
almost never called that in my youth or adulthood.  But I like it.

Oh, that ... I took about 350 shots from different angles. Since
they have fenced it off for building a memorial, sneaking in took
some pretty intrepid moves.

Lust is such a funny thing. I just an ad on TV for a 'laser level'--it
sends out a 30 ft. line of light along the surface for you to line
things up with.

Now that I come to think of it, I wonder how it stays on the wall.
(Sound of tape rewinding...) Hm. It kind of clamps down.

Okay. I want one! I have no idea how much they cost, but lust is like
that...

That would be great for the first roll of wallpaper one puts on a wall in
an older house where nothing is really a straight line.

Karen how are you feet?  Is the plantar fasciitis better?

Sorry. My mood is not good for reasons that should be obvious. Also, I
am having a really bad time trying to breathe. I have done my

Sorry for these cries. I'll be back in two hours, after the choir rehearsal,

Well, I think my house is pretty straight, but I can see going
around aligning everything. (Like, the white board in my office
appears to be straight, and the bookcase appears to be straight, but
they aren't parallel. I could use this to figure that out.

> Karen how are you feet?  Is the plantar fasciitis better?

Better? I'm not sure what you're talking about. Since the first bout,
which lasted about two weeks, I haven't had any real problems. It
threatens to come back now and then, but wearing shoes takes care of
it. It's a non-issue. Did I complain about my feet hurting recently?

Yeah.

Ligniere borrowed my drill a while back, and even though I don't need
it right now, I still think about this all the time because this is a
VERY NICE drill. Not too heavy, not too light, juuuuust right.
Everyone who uses it says "Oooh, this feels good!" But it's mine,

No you didn't complain recently.  That's why I wondered.  You sure were
lucky that the bout only lasted two weeks.  Mine lasted three years.

But I've been on steroids for four years. My three inhalers contain

I know. I was delighted that it was a small, manageable problem for
me. My sister just turned 40 and she's having problems with her
iliotibial band--I had that, too, but hers is much worse. More
persistent, because she didn't know immediately what to do. Pilates
has been a godsend for me. The only other thing I want, that I've
actually seen offered around here but can't afford, is instruction in
falling.

Well, you'd probably have bone problems anyway, having been a smoker
and being slender. I forgot that you were already on them.

Juniper Sage was really Chris Headington, and he died in October
1993.  They, the SBRHYM-Lers, the Stony Brook Literary

Fosomax is preventive or preventative, as preferred.

Nice dream world!

My footing is sure, but with my right leg so much shorter than my left
leg, it's unrealistic to think that I will never fall. Pilates is All

can't seem to make it to places that require me to be there between 9 and 5.
I think JMW can't read my writing either if I've deciphered him correctly.

So far seems nice. I switched from my dentist on Central Park South -- who
was really nice and pulled my wisdom tooth out like it was impacted in soft
butter -- to the closest dentist to my house. He's young and good looking,
and most importantly his breath didn't smell (nor did the hygienists -- I
actually went ONCE to a dentist with bad breath) and seems like a nice
person.

I might miss my CPS dentist. I am keeping my dermatologist in the city
because he is extra special, and I like the occasional excuse to go in. But
I've given up my gyn, my primary care doctor, and my dentist.

 Because the landlord won't give us a lease, and wants to do something
else with the space.
We've endured so much crap from the landlord- They don't like our
political signs in the windows,
our lease was  just month then to be renewed after all the remodeling
(two years worth),  they claim
they can't do remodeling with us there, they've accused us leasing the
space for living quarters for one of
our workers (he stayed there at  night in the summer to keep the doors
open because the landlords hadn't
installed  the Air Condition unit as promised.   They want change of
use, and won't negoiate with us. The
judge ruled in their favor on Monday.  Our rent is paid.

Oh. Thanks. This goes on a lot here in the Old City - mostly it is a ploy
to charge the next tenant more rent. This tactic of major property owners
is the reason the Old City will never be a neighborhood - it had great
promise, but this kind of stuff has killed it. The downtown neighborhoods
will be on Market Sq. and N. Gay Street.

I am surprised there was even an opportunity to go to court - ususally
there is not.

That's like saying there is no logical reason to introduce
"x" in a word problem ... Logical reasons have no place in
hunting for the solution.

I walked along Royal Mile in Edinburgh in the evening and noticed a
counter on the street where pieces of Celtic knotwork were on sale. I
had thought beforehand that knotwork pendants might make good gifts to
bring with me from the trip. After looking at them more closely I felt I
need to think over whether these very were the proper pendants to buy.
The seller said he was going to sell them there for about one more hour
that evening which seemed enough for me to have a cup of coffee nearby,
calculating my finances and what would fit for which receiver of a
pendant.

I entered a noisy pub (they were all noisy, btw, but as a tourist I
wasn't disturbed by it but took it as a local colorite) and asked for a
cup of coffee. The eyebrows of the barman rose. They rose high.

- Coffee-ee-e?

- Yes, a cup of coffee, please, I mumbled less decisively, feeling
there's something wrong.

As his eyebrows almost touched the ceiling I asked, astonished and
weakly smiling, whether the didn't have coffee.

No-o-o-o, he answered, astonished and smiling weakly.

So I just made my way backward to the door, perplexed and richer by a
piece of knowledge that in Scotland both the signifier and the signified
of the above-mentioned dark beverage were apparently unknown in pubs and
one shouldn't ever mention them.

Well, I was quite content with a glass of dark velvet beer in another
pub, and soon acquired those wonderful pendants that were gladly
received later on by those I gave them.

Thanks :) I'd rather would like to hear from Natalie about her visit.
But perhaps she has written about her impressions already, on the days I
neither received msgs nor read the archives.

Yabbut, you've been around for a while now. None of us has a pseudonym.
I can't imagine why you'd think it. But, never mind.

I'm glad you like it

Only step by step, I guess. Meanwhile I answer questions that Marie was
asked by Bonniemae:

>did you love the stone walls?

Yes. They remind me of Estonian stone walls, only the stone is different.

>did you see lots of
>sheep?

Yes, they make a pattern of the landscape!

>did it rain all the time?

No, only during the second half of the trip. We escaped the flood in
Edinburgh, the next day after our leaving it there was no electricity
bacause of the flood.

>did you see stone circles?

Castlerigg. We patted all the stones and raised our hands with open palms
to get mystic energy, just in case :)

Who is this addressed to? I constantly wear shoes now. Partly
due to getting into too many complications with uncomprehending

Yes.  I discovered that there were fast boats from Helsinki.  The
problem was that you had to buy the round-trip ticket for a specific
return time -- like you couldn't decide how long to stay after you got
there.  So I went on and chose a fairly early boat back.  I got there in
mid-to-late morning and headed back to Helsinki in mid afternoon.  When
I got off the boat in Tallinn, I walked up to the Old City, where I
wandered around for a good while.  Then I headed back down toward the
dock, going through some kind of warehouse-looking shopping area at one
point, a place with lots of motorcycles around it, and into a regular
mall close to the dock, hoping I might find computers.  I did find one
public computer, but by the time I'd changed a euro into Estonian money
to put into the computer (I'd been able to use euros for food and a
t-shirt), somebody else had sat down there and seemed to be settling
in.  I had thought it would be way cool to send you e-mail from
Tallinn.  But it was time then to head back to the boat to head back to
Helsinki.

I was amazed at how much beer people were bringing onto that return
boat.  Apparently Finns go to Tallinn to buy beer.  They were using
dollies to roll multiple cases of Estonian beer onto the boat.

I'm trying to remember what date this was.  It was in early August.
Wait -- I think I saw the boat-ticket stub in my purse a few days ago.
Lemme look. ...  Found it!  It was 4 August.  Left Helsinki at 10:05,
left Tallinn at 15:00.

Why are your legs different lengths?  You should pray about it.  I think
I've mentioned before the MSU student who became Miss America some
number of years ago and told about how one of her legs had been shorter
than the other but that she had prayed about it and that God made them
the same length.  I can't remember whether God made the short one grow
longer or the long one grow shorter.  Anyway, she claimed that they
matched after God's help.

An oral surgeon I dated many moons ago shaved his armpits as an
odor-preventive.  He said he didn't want to risk hanging over a patient
with odiferous armpits.

Is nobody turning old buildings into condos there -- as in buyers rather
than renters?  Seems to me that that's the way to make a neighborhood
more <real> (except here in Starkpatch, where condos are almost all
rented to students -- as in somebody buys a condo but with no intention
of living in it).  But I guess the owners of the apartment buildings
don't want to sell them.

Actually, what happened was that one side of her brain atrophied so that
she thinks her legs are the same length.

I remember this girl.  Was it Cheryl something?
I remember her singing that song (which I can't
think of right now), but it was very dramatic
and she sang with that star-struck raptured
look that born-agains get when they perform.
Perhaps her leg was shortening at that very
moment.

I wish. He did not call. He *always* calls. I can only think that the
receptionist did not give him the message. I'll call in the morning. The
thing is that he is in G'town only on Tuesday and Thursday. If he wants
to see me, it has to be tomorrow, or else I have to wait five days until
next Tuesday. This really is unlike him. He has called in the past as
late as 6:00, but I doubt he is still working at this hour. I've been
just lying in bed with CNN on. Sometimes dozing, sometimes not. Had some
split pea soup and crackers. Just got up to let Spike out. Breathing is
not bad at the moment. It comes and goes in spurts of goodness and
badness.

        Cynical because I think the voter isn't looking at candidates
as individuals.  For example, I don't like our county
executive one bit.  He happens to be a democrat, so in that
race I voted for the republican candidate, who sounded good
enough to me to give him a shot.  Of course, the county
executive doesn't do anything with social services, and a
fiscal conservative is good in that position, so it would be
cynical of me to have voted for the guy I don't like -- who
keeps a nickname like "Buzz" into adulthood anyway -- simply
for party platform reasons.  Regardless, "Buzz" won.

        An interesting phenomenon of punching the straight ticket
hole is how the judge voting turns out here.  We voted
simply to retain judges, and if they happened to be the
opposite party, the straight ticket vote registers as
against retaining the judge of the opposite party.  So all
the judges had almost the same number of votes -- the votes
against were slightly higher than the number of straight
ticket voters.  The vast majority of voters have no opinion
on circuit judges since the vast majority have nothing to do
with them.  So I think it is cynical to vote to boot
somebody out of a judgeship simply because they're of the
opposite party.

        I don't think she cares, but I think I'll go dentist
shopping.  We do have pediatric dentists around here -- one
within a short walk from the house actually -- but it never
occurred to me that it would be useful to go to one because
I never did.

I wonder if they had tea.  About what time was it?  At least back a good
many years ago, some pubs in England (but I'm not sure about Scotland)
turned into tea places at exactly the time of day USAers think of as
cocktail hour.

Excellent.  And I love your description of pub #1.  I do hope you'll
tell more!

I loved my visit to Tallinn.  That was perhaps my favorite day of my
trip.  In fact, I think I would say that it definitely was my favorite.
I was sorry I couldn't stay longer.  The people were friendly, I adored
the Old City (which I realize is probably more of a tourist attraction
now than being representative of <real Tallinn>), and I would like to
have seen more of the city.

I thought about you the whole time, of course.  I remember when the boat
was docking that I looked out at the nearby streets and thought, "I
wonder whether Kristin drives along those streets."

        Because I'm a little oversensitive to whether somebody is
annoyed with me, so I overcompensate or just don't feel
right, etc.  Whatever.  Not very interesting.

I don't consider names imposed by others as at all the same thing.

I think he did tell his his real name.  But Elwood hasn't made that
public knowledge, afaik.

Didn't Dave Pretty of RI have a pseudonym also?  I'm blanking on what it
was.

Says Madonna!

It makes me wonder what drugs she's on.:)

>From http://www.gist.com: "Material Mom Madonna was disgusted by a
recent "Good Morning America" story that featured footage of a mother
breast-feeding her 8-year-old son, reports New York's Daily News. The
segment in question aired in July and showed Lynn Stuckey, who was the
subject of an investigation by Illinois child-welfare officials,
nursing her son. Madonna told radio talk-show host Rick Dees that
ABC's decision to air the breast-feeding video was "unforgivable." She
said: "People have no morals, I swear to God. The things that people
do for ratings!" The singer, herself a mother of two children, called
Stuckey's behavior "incest" and explained: "The world is
collapsing. Why is there a tape of [her nursing]? It's terrible. That
child will never recover. How dare 'Good Morning America' play that
tape." When asked about Madonna's tirade against the morning show, a
"GMA" representative told the News, "We'd be happy to welcome her on
the show to discuss this issue." "

??  Of course they told us their real names since they weren't the ones
who assumed the other names, except maybe well after having been given
them by us.  Or at least that's true with Boo and Giggles.  I'm trying
to remember now when Chris turned into Lobstrosity -- as in whose
creation that was.  In any case, it was after we already knew him as
Chris.  It's not as if any of the above landed on the list with those
names in place.

Indeed (re Janet).  But what I can't remember now is whether she told us
right off the bat that her real name was Janet.  I think she did.  Re
Shoshana, I remember when she told us that she had decided to become
Shoshana, but I can't remember what her earlier name was.

I'm all for not weaning kids too early, but 8 years seems a bit long.

        It's all the same if it causes you to react inappropriately.

Lady Green was also Verdant quite early.  She didn't switch fully to
Janet for a long time.  I remember telling her that I wouldn't be able
to think of her as Janet since she was engrained in my mind as Verdant
-- and I remember that she said that was ok.  Re Nipper, he didn't start
that.  I think it was Alan who wrote something about Marty (and others,
iirc) being like nipping dogs.  I can't remember whether it was Alan who
started calling him Nipper after that.  Somehow I have it vaguely stuck
in my head that it might have been I who dubbed him Nipper, but it was
as a result of Alan's (I think it was Alan's) posting re the nipping.

Re Bonniemae, I do take credit for that one.  I'm almost positive twas I
who started using it, from your earlier e-mail userid.

        Eight is really at the very upper, upper limits of even the
radical fringe of the breastfeeding movement.  I could see
it in the case of perhaps some developmental or
eating/digestion problem, though.

I think not.  I remember that she told us one day that she had decided
to become Shoshana.  Maybe she said that it had always been her real
name and that whatever she had been using wasn't.  Or maybe it was
something like a first name vs a middle name.  I wish I remembered now
what she had been earlier.  The reason I remember it was that I remember
thinking, "How odd to suddenly become Shoshana."

She had been Shoshana for years before Words-L, though. It was the
name she went by in her real life.

Eight would be what? About a third-grader? "And what did you have

I just googled for '"miss america" cheryl mississippi legs' and found
this:

                                    A Bright Shining Place
                                    Cheryl Salem

                                    This is the story of a miracle.
When Cheryl was a little girl growing up in Mississippi, a family
friend told her that one day she would be everyone's Miss America.
But when she was eleven years old, an automobile accident left her
scarred and crippled. One of her legs was two inches shorter than
the other. Doctors and her family feared at first that nothing short of
a miracle would enable Cheryl to walk again.

A Bright-Shining Place is the dramatic story of how Cheryl's devout
Christian faith and persistence brought this miracle into her life.

It began in a prayer session in 1974 in which her leg grew two
inches to normal length and led to her coronation five years later as
Miss America.

So you see -- twas God.  Hmm.  Did it grow two inches in that one prayer
session?  That must have been dizzying.

At age 11, she was in a near-fatal accident which crushed her left leg.
When she was 17, Miss Prewitt claims that a miracle of faith on October
21, 1974, caused the bone in her leg to "grow two inches,
instantaneously."

Prewitt.  You have a good memory.  It was relatively easy for me to
remember her since I knew her when she was the accompanist for the
Starkville Symphony Chorus.  We were a relatively small and jolly group,
and I usually sat very close to where she was playing the piano, though
I didn't think to look at her legs because I didn't know the leg story
at that time.

No, we now know that it was the other leg that grew and that it wasn't
at that moment.  I think the song was mentioned in that second url I
posted.  Lemme go look again.

That seems at odds with our recent discussions, though.  I need to mull
that over.

This is upsetting.  I'm glad about the good spurts but am worried
overall.  What time does he arrive in Germantown?  I trust that you will
call at the earliest possible time.

Arguably developmental problem due to state intervention.

A babysitter reported the mom for breastfeeding at age 5 because she
thought the kid said that mommy wouldn't let him stop.  As a result, the
kid was placed in foster care for six months.  Subsequently, he has been
back with his mom for a year and a half.

I've said many times that I've never been a yellow-dog Democrat.  But I
can't see that my often voting for all Democrats in a particular
election is <cynical>.

Hmm.  I think you're talking about something I don't know anything
about.  What's a "straight ticket hole"?

Our judgeship races don't list parties at all, nor can judgeship
campaigning mention political parties.  There's been debate on whether
that's good or bad.  I thought I had done my homework pretty well before
voting yesterday, but I realized when I got there that I had screwed up
and overlooked one of the judgeship races.  I knew zilch about it.  So I
simply left that one blank.  I don't know about everywhere, but here you
aren't required to mark a box for every race.  Leaving one blank doesn't
invalidate the whole ballot.

I don't.  Many people lack people skills for a variety of reasons, like
shyness, lack of self-esteem, etc. etc. etc.  Some of those people are
highly sensitive.

Yes, he was Bookrat.  But his real name wasn't a secret, iirc.  As

Wordslers).

She was always Shoshana.  She was even Shoshana on the menopaus list which
is how she got to words-l.   Then one day on words-l she said that Shoshana
wasn't her real name.

Bookrat became Boo after he was on the list and bookrat was reparsed as
boo-krat.  Giggles never called himself Giggles, iirc.  That name was
born out of his -ggs signature.

That may well be true.  I didn't know her before she showed up on
Words-L.  But I do remember when she announced to us on Words-L that she
was becoming Shoshana.

Indeed.  And why is it your eye doctor who is telling you this?  Are you

??  I've never heard of not being able to walk because of having one leg
shorter than the other.  I'd say you'd probably limp but not that you
couldn't walk.

Is it true that some places kids nurse regularly till they are 5 or 6?
I've heard that before, but have no data on it.

The URL you cited says "The American Academy of Pediatrics says all
but 18 percent of mothers in the U.S. have weaned their child by age
1." But there are commercials here encouraging women to keep nursing
for health reasons. I can't remember for how long--I know it's at
least a year. So that's actually pretty shocking to me.

Yes, but because I need catarract surgery.  I went
to him today to have him check my eye for any
damage and to determine when we can do the
cat. surgery.  He agreed we should not do it now.
I showed him a picture of myself taken after the
fall, and he said I had <at least> a concussion, and
he had some concern I should be checked further
in case there is a bleed in the brain.  He was
surprised the ER had only stitched my head but
not Xrayed.

PS:  Re your worry about taking care of Spike, I wish I were really
retired and could come help you.  But I can say that if you find
yourself in a situation where you have to be in the hospital for an
extended stay or totally in bed at home without being able to let him in
and out or whatever, I will find a way to transport him here and take
care of him for you and then bring him back to you.  I promise you that.

I don't limp, either, but all that aside, the quote you provided

No - if you sell, then you cannot boot a tenant in order to raise the
rent.

I should add that Kyle does not use the boot a tenant tactic - but he
makes a lot more money leasing than selling.

I dunno.  Brad might well have been part of it.  But I think I was
first.  I started to say while ago that I think I'm also the one who
first called ggs Giggles -- when I said that his signature made me think
of "giggles."  But I decided that I was sounding too uppity or something
in claiming all those things -- Bonniemae, Nipper, Giggles.  I don't
claim all, however.  I did not initiate Mutant City.  That was
Tushykins.

I'm not claiming to know what she was in previous lives or other lives.
But I do remember when she became Shoshana on Words-L.  I have no doubt
about that memory.  I just wish I remembered what she had first come to
us as.

As I understand it, her problem was that she was in a wreck that smashed
her leg and that at first the doctors had said she'd never walk again.
She did walk again but had legs of different lengths.  It was the prayer
that made them the same length again.  I did not hear any of this from
the horse's mouth, though.  She was friendly and pleasant when I knew
her but didn't get into the matter of leg lengths in my presence.

        I think 4 or 5.  I've seen four years cited a lot as the
"natural" spacing between children without birth control.

        I think the vast majority of American women wean within the
first couple of months, if they breastfeed at all.  After
that, 6 months (teeth) is the big quit time.  American women
are encouraged to nurse for the first year, and the World
Health Organization recommends two years.  I nursed Ana
about for about two years.  We were both pretty ready to
quit at that point.

Subject: WHENCE COMMETH BREE....
Date: 1995/10/30


After several inquiries along the lines of Where did Bree come
from...

My husband and I have a rare book business, natural history,
science, technology and a smattering of other weirdness.  And we
are both avid readers.  And finally, although I hesitate to admit
it, we are Tolkein lovers.  Enough to admit to reading the trilogy
at least once a year.

After the brave band sets out from Hobbiton, their first stop is
Bree. Tolkein explains how Bree was once the center of commerce in
the region, and travelers and traders from all over Middle Earth
would converge upon the taverns and inns of Bree, primarily of
course Mr. Butterburr's, where they would exchange wondrous stories
of their travels.  Hobbits would occasionally visit and return to
Hobbiton bearing all manner of strange tales and gossip of the
outside world.

As part of this explanation Tolkein dropped the marvelous phrase,
"strange as news from Bree."

Thus, we became Books From Bree.  And yes, some of our books are
actually quite strange.  How about Scattering Theory, or Synoptic
Meteorology.

there seem to have been some other antecedent messages on the

Joanne Marie.  And my original name, before being adopted, was
Louise Antoinette.  No identity crisis here.

My family had several names in mind when I was adopted, but could
not agree on any of them.  Sandy had been the preferred choice, but
when they picked me up they found a baby with coal black curly
hair.  Naturally by the time I was three I had nice Sandy brown
hair.  But after much wrangling, they decided to give in to my
eldest soon-to-be brother, whose current girl friend (he was all of
11) was Joanne Marie.

Adulthood arrived with the promise of shedding a lot of really
painful things that childhood had abounded with (with which
childhood, etc. etc.; sorry!), including the name which carried
baggage.  And I was resentful at having been named after a casual
childhood crush.

So, Shoshana.  And my husband and I, then engaged, did not want to
do the traditional thing of me taking his name.  It seemed to us to
imply an ownership thing about which we were very uncomfortable.
Same with him taking on my name.  But we wanted to share the same
last name.  So we took a new one!  Seemed appropriate.  We were
creating something new by marrying, thus a new name.  The anarchist
in us loved it, and we made it part of our non-state, non-church
marriage ceremony.

Dunno, but I wouldn't be surprised.  Katherine Dettwyler says, "In
societies where children are allowed to nurse 'as long as they want' they
usually self-wean, with no arguments or emotional trauma, between 3 and 4
years of age."

Comparing humans to other animals who presumably don't have cultural
preconceptions, she says the biologically natural age of weaning should be
somewhere between 2.5 and 7 years. [1]

That's why they have the commercials, to try to get more moms nursing for
the first year.  Our history, culture, and the fact that many moms work all
conspire against.

The AAP recommends breastfeeding exclusively for 6 months, and "that
breastfeeding continue for at least 12 months, and thereafter for as long
as mutually desired." [2]

WHO says, "A recent review of evidence has shown that, on a population
basis, exclusive breastfeeding for 6 months is the optimal way of feeding
infants. Thereafter infants should receive complementary foods with
continued breastfeeding up to 2 years of age or beyond." [3]

        On the first page of the booklet, you can punch "straight
ticket" for any of the parties, then you're done except for
the ballot issues.

        I don't leave blanks -- I figure if they haven't made the
news, they can stay.  And I'm familiar with most of them,
anyway.

I don't even understand what people skills are. What were these
attributes called before the psychologists thought up "people skills"?

        Dettwyler is a fringe loonie if you read all of her research.
  In any case, many mammal mothers force weaning, so she has
a major logic problem in equating natural nursing in the
animal kingdom with natural weaning.

Is that so intimately connected with breastfeeding? We're mostly 4
years apart, and my Mom never breastfed AFAIK.

Thank you Natalie. The thing is that when I took Spike, I signed an
agreement that he be returned to the Senior Dog Adoption lady if I (or
my family) couldn't care for him. I have given her number to my cleaning
woman (a dog lover whose niece also owns a grooming place), and I have
it posted on a sign on the kitchen door (between kitchen and dining
room) for anyone who might come here to see with other emergency
information. So Spike will be taken care of, I'm sure.

I am happy to say that as the evening wears on, I am feeling
considerably better. Perhaps lying abed all day was what was needed. But
I don't want to jinx things. I will still call the doctor if I am not
absolutely chipper in the morning.

definitely not Shoshana at the very beginning (of her Words-L
presence).  She was Bree.

I don't know that it's so strange.  But I'm very happy that mem found

Booklet?  I'm learning lots of new stuff.  I've never heard of a ballot
booklet.

I almost never leave blanks.  But in the case of two or three competing
names that I failed to do any research at all on and know nothing about,
I think the fairest thing to do is leave it blank.  That has happened to
me only a couple of times in my whole voting career, though.  It's not
as if I'm usually that sloppy a <preparer>.

I assume it means people who don't socialize well (in the largest sense
of that word -- as in I'm not talking about whooping it up at parties).

That's standard procedure for dog adoptions.  It's on the forms to make
sure that people adopting dogs realize the seriousness of the commitment
and don't do something like abandon them.  I knew it was on our local
forms because I had seen the forms in working with the Humane Society,
but I still remember balking at signing that statement when I adopted
Spencer and saying to the person I gave the form to that I could not
imagine taking Spencer to the shelter -- that I would find a good home
for him myself.  She agreed that that would be the thing to do, even
though I still had to sign the statement.  I decided that what I would
do would be to find him a good home and then tell the shelter about it
-- iow, circumvent that requirement without truly violating the
agreement.

The cleaning woman sounds like an excellent resource person for that
kind of emergency.

I think you should call the doctor even if you do feel absolutely
chipper -- just to discuss the recent unpleasantness.

Actually, he posted under his real name in 1992, with the motto "My

I thought that was the normal voting method. It's how I voted in MO

This was one post I found that cracked me up:

"Not to be confused with the "original" Miranda Ruling (named after
Carmen Miranda), which holds a person liable for any accident or
injury which results from the wearing of noxious or distracting
attire.

   This was the result of a case involving a four-vehicle/one horse
accident in Fresno, California in 1940.  The cause was determined to
be a woman crossing an intersection, wearing a large fruit-covered
hat, which distracted the motorists.  The comparison in the press
to Carmen Miranda was inevitable.  The original meaning of
"Merandizing" was, therefore, to adorn one's person with fruit.

   The more recent Miranda Ruling has overshadowed this incident,
more's the pity."

The earliest appearance of Elwood I could find is April 30, 1992.

While I was waiting for the bus I noticed an airplane circling over
the area just north of the mall; this went on for twenty minutes
at least; it was still circling when I got on the bus to go home.
On the way home I noticed police lights in the parking lot of the
shopping complex near my home (the one I walk by on my way
to and from Reasor's); there were several police cars, and the
officers had stopped several cars in the parking lot.  I've been
watching the news, and there's been no news about it.  (The
major topics were "why Steve Largent lost his momentous
lead" and "Winona Ryder found guilty of grand theft and
vandalism.")

We had that in Akron:  you would slip the punch card underneath
the closed booklet and make sure that the pins and top holes in
the card were straight.  Then you opened the first page and
punched the appropriate holes.  This is the same method that the

Actually, I was still kcmiller@netcom.com when I joined.  (Haven't used
that one in a while!  Whatever happened to Netcom, anyway? ;-)  )

But I morphed to Bookrat within two or three months of my appearance on
this service, so a certain amount of memory conflation is inevitable.

I think the *absence* of people skills has good adjectives
working for it--eccentric, creepy, saturnine, unsavory, coarse,
vile, reserved, hermetic, diffident, odious etc. Presence of
people skills may have a few: agreeable, amiable, sincere
etc.

Not at all.  But I did think it rather
strange that a shoplifting charge (and
whatever else it was called) should
draw so much press and attention.

Maybe there is more fun if you try The Pickwick Papers? Or you could use Martin Chuzzlewit and get hold of the BBC series made a few years ago and show that to the class. Another favourite is Bleak House - the neverending law case might be linked with things going on today?

Does to me.  I don't remember how long it was before she sprang Shoshana
on us, but I do remember that we had known her for a while (as Bree)
when she came out with the name "Shoshana."  As I said, I'm talking
about Words-L only.  I had no reason to know which name or names she
used in other lives.

PS:  Was your point that we were supposed to assumed that Shoshana was
her name from the "Sho" above?  I would be mightily impressed with
anybody who could make that leap.  Nothing in the above suggests to me
that "Sho" is a signature in the first place -- I would take it (unless
I already knew her name, of course) as something like "sure" or some
other cutsey signoff.  And even if I guessed that "Sho" might be a name,
it would be a long leap for me from "Sho" to figure out the name
"Shoshana."

Thank you, Espen.  These books are a little better, but I'm
limited to what I have class sets of.

I've never thought of there being what I'd call a <normal> voting method
since it's well known that the methods vary widely, even within a single
state.  I've used various voting methods in the various places I've
voted in my life (most of which were long ago, of course, since I've
lived in the same county for years now), from levers and machines to
paper and pencil, but I've never encountered booklets.

        In theory because breastfeeding is supposed to prevent
ovulation (that's where the protection against breast cancer
lies), but there's so much variation in individuals that
it's meaningless, imo.

Two reasons:  (1) I'm not the one who expressed interest in taking
falling lessons.  (2) I'm much older than Karen -- see my point about
age above.

see nothing from Marie this morning, here again (thanks to mem) is the

Like much else of her life (as reported to words-l), I rather suspect that
the devotion to Tolkein---the annual reading---existed more in imagination
than in fact.  She was occasionally using the name (or the business
signature) when I joined the list, whenever that was.  A few times in
replies to her, I threw in very obvious references or well-known phrases
from Tolkein.  They either blew right past her or she professed ignorance.

Thank you for the fuller explanation of  your stay in the Lake
District.  It sounds like your lodging was very nice, better than
ours.  Ours also was on Lake Windemere but further down, on the west
shore.  We didn't have boats available to us or very good food.  We ended
up eating most nights at a little Italian restaurant in Bowness on
Windemere.  I can't imagine the place we were staying arranging for soup to
be brought to our rooms.  It wasn't that personal.

I'm glad you had a near out-of-body experience walking to Castlerigg.  It
was the setting, not the state of your stomach!!

 > Our room itself was sort of overly <like that>, kind of froufrou frilly,

I think all the lodging might be like that.

>>I'm sure this isn't helpful. I can't entirely recommend the place because
>>like you I know there is probably better,

That is exactly my feeling.   There was nothing really wrong with the
places we stayed.  It's just that I was more comfortable in other lodgings
in other parts of Scotland and England.  The Red Lion Inn in Salisbury, for
example, is wonderful.  It has a nice feeling of an old English
lodge.  Then there was the place in Nairn, Scotland which was awesome.  We
had the Top Room which has a view out to the North Sea.  That's the place
with Zuberflute, the white cat.  Their dining room became a stage theatre
in the winter.  The had a picking garden with edible flowers.  Etc. etc.

On the wall next to my desk here, I have a painted photograph which is a
close-up of two sheep, looking at the camera, their wool matted with
snow.  It makes me think of the Lake District.  It was amazing to me how
the sheep just stood in the rain, looking so patient, or maybe stupid.

Thanks, Marie.

    On some level this is way weird.  Not 30 minutes ago I was looking
in Anger's "Hollywood Babylon II" at a picture of Carmen Miranda without
any skanties.
    I don't know what this means.

On any level, this is way weird.

It was very funny to me that I remembered this post vividly, but in my
mind, I connected it to Elwood, not the poster. I remember laughing

It is indeed weird, but this is very like what I have mentioned twice
this week when Words-L and the Book Mania list have had parallel

Yes, well, I was one of the few people I know who thought it was great that
OJ got away with murder.  To me it seemed American Justice, at its best.  I
guess it's the cynic in me that thinks money <should> rule.  Otherwise
what's it all about?

Even way back in the convent, one of my favorite mottos was "Be Here

Rita, I'll be at PF tomorrow - and check on St. Louis area barns.

Also, I will receive a script this week for a commercial that will feature
Maria - I gave permission yesterday for her to appear in a commercial for the
Patricia Neal Rehab Center. Her former owner's newest wife works there - and
he was a patient there after his near-fatal fall from Maria.

Bethany

I liked the last one -- the pyramid one whatever it was.

Tuesday was such a bummer to fans of gridlock. I've been
predicting the death of the Democratic party for so long -
since I dunno, 1988 ? - 'twas interesting to see it finally

Unworried and happy people are dorks, and most probably so are
ones who are "here now". You can't get much more than a buncha
vulgar, cheery, baseline nonsense out of them, and so I steer
clear of them.

= Could you elaborate?

we have no baseline version of the code.  we're working from two
cvs's.  the guy who thought he knew how to tag the whole thing
up, merge it correctly, etc, well, his contract is up.  i'm
responsible for the fix/tst/uat environments for the current
version and i haven't a clue what we have in there except it's a
copy of production.  it's not pretty.  it's not going to get to
be pretty.

If so, I don't get the reason for it.  Most of what you've listed are
articles.  And if I wanted to read a book by her, I wouldn't have
trouble finding it.  It's not as if I'd never heard of her and knew
nothing about her theories.

The prosecutor herself said that she was not seeking
jail time for Winona.  She said that she wants Winona
to get probation and community service and pay
restitution.

Briefly, she has established that memory is not static - that it is
inevitablly influenced by events subsequent to the remembered event. Also
she has demonstated that memory can be affected by the language of queries
about past events. For example, asking "Did you see the red car?" elicits
more recollections of a red car than "Did you see a red car?"

It's a first offense and not a violent crime. That's why the
prosecutor said that they are not asking for jail time.

She writes things about memory and how false memories can be implanted.
She became somewhat famous a while back as a spokesperson against the
repressed-memory idea -- the thing about how somebody could have a
repressed memory ferreted out by a shrink.

I'm far from an expert on her, but I know I've read criticisms of her

subsequent events).

And that, of course, is common sense.

I heard a lunch yesterday that expert crack-fixers said they could
probably fix it.

Meanwhile, Alyce, did you talk to the doctor today?

How did we live before web life?  Actually, this is the first time I've
ever thought about the possibility of finding somebody's wedding
registration at an online store, but it occurred to me that people in
Houston might be registered at Crate & Barrel.  And sure enough they
were.  So I have now taken care of buying a wedding present that I had
been thinking I'd have to go to Columbus to shop for and then box up and
mail.  But C&B popped their registry right up, I picked a gift, and C&B
will take care of the rest since they have their address for the
delivery.

As for hacking, what do you think they're doing?  It's just that
one group is hacking in Paris on the next version, one group is
hacking on the current version, and when the new comes to get
written over the old, well, it's very ugly for us all.

The code, the code has been like this from the beginning.  It
won't get much worse.  As for the attrition (if you can call it

Why was Jake going on and on about feeling personally responsible for
having let down his tribe, and why were the others comforting him and
saying that they weren't blaming him?  Why *should* the ones who popped
right up out of the water be blaming him?  Were they not in the game
also?  Afaik, Jake didn't even have a way to realize that it was down to
a one-on-one contest at the end and that he needed to stick it out
howevermany minutes.  I guess maybe the thing he said later about being
the tribe's strongest swimmmer might be related, although this contest
wasn't about swimming.  If I understood correctly what was going on
under the water, it seemed to me that much of it had to do with lung
strength in blowing out the water that leaked in.

I'm nevertheless glad they lost.  I wish they'd outsted Pennyshit
instead of the other bland bambi, though.  I really thought by tribal
council time that it would be the policeman who would go.  He seemed so
oddly quiet and out of the loop or something.  (As noted before, of
course, we see only parts of what goes on.)

I meant to say that I might have been influenced by her erroneous use, but

I'm sure it was much harder than it looked.

I found it odd that it was the Navy swimming instructor who immediately

He's annoying, but he's also a good competitor, and the teams haven't
merged yet, so there may be more team competitions.  The three that remain
all have stamina and determination, and they mutually recognized that.

Erin, to the best of my recollection, hasn't done a damn thing in past
challenges except function as eye candy.

That was what is now yesterday. Yes, I did. He would not give me more
antibiotics, saying that the Zythromax keeps working for five days after
the last pill (the fifth day being today, Friday). He did, however,
prescribe something to promote getting rid of gunk--a mucus-buster. Then
there was a snag. I asked the nurse to call the prescription in to the
drug store at 9:30 am, because it happened that my neighbor was going
there at 11:00 and could pick it up for me. The nurse said she would. At
1:30, my neighbor arrived empty-handed. She had gone there at 11:00 and
the call had not arrived. She went on to get her hair cut and do other
errands and returned to the drug store at 1:00, and there still was no
prescription. I called the nurse in a fit of pique and she said she had
called it in. Then I called the drugstore and the pharmacist said the
call came in about five minutes after my neighbor had left. Ergo, I
suspect that the nurse forgot. And so, I am getting up my gumption now
to go get it myself. Meanwhile, I felt somewhat better yesterday. Today
I feel better than I did before yesterday, but not as well as I did
yesterday. Doctor said that if I did not feel fine by Monday that I'd
have to call the pulmonologist--that he would not go any farther without
her opinion. She is only in this vicinity on Wednesdays, and I know if I
call her other office, she will say to go get a CT scan, which she
wanted me to do in July, but I demurred.
Going to the hospital for that is a real hassle. You can't park anywhere
near the entrance. The disabled parking places are minimal and about 1/2
a city block away, which means that I'd have to get someone to drive me.
That, in itself, is not impossible, but I hate to have someone waiting,
waiting, because the X-ray and CT scan people are always late with their
appointments. I should add that the hospital has so-called valet parking
for people like me. However, the last time I tried that, the man (an
elderly volunteer) couldn't master a stick shift and left my car
blocking the hospital entrance so that everyone else had to go around in
an awkward way. Luckily, I was only getting stuck for blood, so I was
not there long. But a scan might be a very different story. I waited
over two hours the last time.

Where in Europe are there safaris?  One doesn't have to go on a safari
to see non-zoo/non-circus elephants, though.  One can see working
elephants in Thailand, among other places.

Presumably Rush Limbaugh does not air in Red's neighborhood. Red, Rush
Limbaugh is a very right-wing (and to my mind, despicable) radio
personality. The word you like is his coinage.

Nonetheless, I would think an experienced swimmer would be more comfortable
with the concept of a snorkel, and swallowing a little water, etc. I was
surprised that Helen, the Navy swim instructor, for instance, was the one
who sat out of the CG tribe, since Clay is clearly a terrible swimmer (and
sure enought the first one out of the water -- after Penny.)

I think the comment, "We should all sleep together tonight" won her some big
points with the boys. Did you see the eyes? Erin with the boobs was much
more of a hottie, but she doesn't seem to be playing with a full deck.

I wonder why the attribution doesn't show up.  I remember when reading

I don't doubt at all that it was hard.  All I'm doubting is their
reasons for seeming to suggest that it was Jake's responsibility to win
for them.

I haven't paid much attention to the bambis until that nastiness with

I don't think that there is a list of requirements. They are lucky to
get volunteers at all, so take what they can get. There are an awful lot
of stick shift vehicles around, though, with all the Blazers and Broncos
and pickup trucks.

My thought was that it was predetermined, and once they decided, or maybe
it's decided for them in some order -- although we're not told that --
there's no changing, once the challenge is revealed.

They're all pretty annoying. I think I like the porn star the best.

    The best way to fight back against sexist jokes
    is with humor. If someone replies to a post
    about the technical achievements of a woman
    with "Is she single?" reply with, "Gee, Jeff,
    no wonder YOU'RE still single."

Nice "humor" ...

Thank you for appreciating the irony.:) I do NOT spew recipes on the

Well, I didn't report him, so perhaps no one knows. Maybe he has not

I haven't found her unpleasant, but her CONSTANT recipe-mongering
would have made me want to kill her. Erin was the only one who engaged
her in that, too, so it will be interesting to see if that changes.

Their responses in trying to comfort him certainly seemed to imply it.
They were exactly the kinds of things said to people who had indeed been
the clear cause of a loss -- like the one to vomit when swallowing nasty
stuff or whatever.  Nobody said, "But look, Jake.  There were three
others of us who failed in the first few seconds."

I found her knee-jerk reaction re the alleged sexual stuff negative.  I
didn't notice her recipeing until last night.  I found it ridiculous
last night, of course, and found it also somehow out of character for
her.  She doesn't remind me of somebody into cooking for some reason.

The flour company.:)

I went to the demonstration of artisan bread baking last night. It was
PACKED--probably close to 300 people, mostly older people. Less than
1/2 the crowd had bread machines, though, which surprised me.

The demonstration was delightfully non-commercial--it was really All
About Bread. And the woman who did the demonstration was really good,
and I enjoyed her speech. (That New England intrusive -r.) She
stressed that she is not a professional baker and several times
pointed out how professional bakers do things and how you would get a
similar effect at home.

She recommended terra cotta tiles on a baking sheet as a cheap
alternative to a baking stone. She also recommended boiling water on
lava rocks as a source of steam.

Among the things I learned:

1) Baguette/epi/boule dough is a cold, wet dough--everything takes
   place around 50-60 degrees.

2) A boule needs to be formed in a container of some sort, because the
   dough is so soft.

3) The crust (and the last 1/3 rising) all gets formed in the first
   2-4 minutes. So there's no point in adding steam later in the
   process.

   She said that she preheats the stone for an hour at 500 degrees,
   then turns it down after she puts the bread in and adds water for
   steam. So really, her crust is made at a much higher temperature
   than the bread is cooked.

4) She suggested sticking a thermometer in the bread to see if it's
   done: 200 degrees.

I thought this was a great demonstration, and I'd recommend it to
anyone who has an interest in baking bread.

If someone knows this in advance, it's not that bad. (If they have the
time.) You can always bring something to do/read. It's much worse when
it happens like that when you don't expect it.

Title: The Big Book of Concepts
Series Title: Bradford Books
Publication Year: 2002

Publisher: MIT Press
           http://mitpress.mit.edu/

Author: Gregory L. Murphy

Hardback: ISBN: 0262134098, Pages: 560, Price: $45


Abstract:

Concepts embody our knowledge of the kinds of things there are in the
world. Tying our past experiences to our present interactions with the
environment, they enable us to recognize and understand new objects
and events. Concepts are also relevant to understanding domains such
as social situations, personality types, and even artistic styles. Yet
like other phenomenologically simple cognitive processes such as
walking or understanding speech, concept formation and use are
maddeningly complex.

Research since the 1970s and the decline of the "classical view" of
concepts have greatly illuminated the psychology of concepts. But
persistent theoretical disputes have sometimes obscured this
progress. The Big Book of Concepts goes beyond those disputes to
reveal the advances that have been made, focusing on the major
empirical discoveries. By reviewing and evaluating research on diverse
topics such as category learning, word meaning, conceptual development
in infants and children, and the basic level of categorization, the
book develops a much broader range of criteria than is usual for
evaluating theories of concepts.

Gregory L. Murphy is Professor of Psychology at New York University.

Even non-celebrities get a break when it comes to a first offense. I doubt she

At my lead we evaluated and just this week purchased Accurev.

We now have the ability to manage our current release stream, 1.1 dev stream
and 2.0 projected stream.

Two weeks from now we'll be off VSS completely and hopefully never again
dealing with trying to track down and merge code in the old fashion, ugly ways.

I have a feeling they had to choose who would sit out before they heard
what the challenge was.  They had their clue, though, that it would involve
water when they saw the tree mail.   I thought it was hilarious how the
film editors gave us a good dose of her constant recipe talk.  When they
cut back to more recipes at night time, I had to laugh.

We haven't discussed the chicken yet.  I'm glad we didn't have to see
the actual wringing.  I thought Whatshername, the older woman, showed
great strength in holding onto the headless (or at least neck-broken)
fluttering chicken.  I wonder, though, whether its grave really needed a
cross.

Speaking of chickens, do any of y'all get a catalogue called Practica?
If so, look at the back of the one that just came (mine came today).
Top left, I think it is.  Chicken sitting on a potty.  Funny picture,
imho.

I now have my medicine. While I was out, I went to the grocery for the
first time in, perhaps, two years. Lots of new products. But I didn't
stay long to browse, because I was getting tired out. I wish stores were
not so big. Even though I had arranged my list so that it was efficient
and I did not have to backtrack anywhere, it was a long, long walk.
Then, I had to go up to the front of the store to find someone to lift
Milkbones down from the shelf. Me! I, the tall one, always was the one
to do this for others.
I bought a beautiful little zucchini, perfect in all respects, which I
will steam and cover with butter tonight. Yes, yes, I know this is not a
universal taste, but I do love it. After I had left the produce
department, the stock person rolled by a cart laden with the most
beautiful dainty asparagus. I asked if I could get some, but, no,
because  he had to go to price it. I didn't want to retrace my steps, so
I missed out on that. Also got another sweet potato for baking. Bought
enough food for at least 14 days. Some frozen, but a nice
freshly-rotisseried chicken, too, which will last Spike and me for three
meals. Hot dogs, and some Stouffer's and Swanson frozen stuff. A yuppie
soccer mom was blocking the Marie Callendar door, so I will wait for
that for another day. Well, it shows that I can do it, but it surely did
tire me temporarily. Now that I am back on my machine and sitting, I am
not winded any longer. Elapsed time: 1 hours, 23 minutes, door to door.
In future, if I don't have to spend time at the drug store, where the
stupid clerk could not find my prescription for quite a while, I will
have more time to spend studying new grocery products.

If you insist. I just have ... *associations*, with this
"he knew how to" phrase. It's a strong or weak version of
a god-syndrome. The code a mess, modules which were claimed
"done" not even begun, duct tape everywhere, the horror, the
utter horror, if they made cars this way.

The immediate reason for his leaving has nothign to do with

LIFE is ugly, "Stevie". Now in a small outfit, this could be
brought under control by one strong personality. A personality
can be made strong by drinking the bitter tonic--of hideous,
boring, legalistic details of version control. You master
those, you become a hated tyrant--all for the sake of clarity
and order, sanctioned by the Roman name. What was I saying?
Oh, right. It's folly to drop theory on the history of a
piece of code, time on the deduction of a common origin, or
cleverness on intricate merge patterns. Remember Elizabeth
Loftus, who has established that memory is not static. To
explicate, all your baseline are belong to us, and any freakin
thing whatsoever, for instance the opening pages of Reinach,
will serve as baseline. Build upon what you have, make two
ad hoc forever parallel branches if necessary. This is the
state of "engineering" at the beginning of the century. Do
not be deluded.

"Stevie"'s system does everything you need, costs zero dollars
for an unlimiteed user license, and is vastly superior to VSS.
Yet, look at the soup Stevie is in, that even the word "baseline"
produces a nervous reaction.

When I hear the "hopefully never" refrain, fat tears roll down
my cheeks. I weep when I see an abused people look forlornly to
yet another tool for easement of their distress.

I use bridges in my examples.

Speaking of versioning software, I've heard Subversion
<http://subversion.tigris.org/> mentioned as a worthy successor/replacement
of cvs.

Who knows? The reasons that I can think of why one is and others
aren't are unflattering to both parties. What other kind of reasons
could I think of anyway. But now I have a much better opinion of
this guy. He clearly didn't "guard his knowledge" or anything--he
just gave up on anybody taking any interest. People don't. They
don't for one moment consider it part of their job. Same as what
my brother in law said was happening in The Media. There is no
holistic conception of the job. How many genius programmers do
you see who work hard to achieve *concise English expression*
for documenting their code? None? I see ...

We are all newcomers to software, and we think this is the time
when self-taught programmers do great things. Wrong--that was
in the 50s, maybe. Right now, it's school-taught programmers
doing dumbass things.

I'm trying once more. I haven't received any mail from anyone in days.
When I try to send any, it is returned as unknown, because it is send to ME
instead of words-l. Replying seems to be the only way I can get through.

And so, I got the prescription out of the bag, only to find that it has
an unopenable cap. I pushed and turned as instructed, but got nowhere. I
began to think that fate did not want me to take these pills, but I got
my hammer and pounded the - - - - out of the plastic bottle. Finally got
the plastic to crack a little, then stuck a screwdriver into that crack
and gouged a piece out of the side of the vial, just large enough for a
pill to come out. The cap is still intact. This is a ridiculous way to
treat old women.

Do you put a cross on a grave because you think the buried is Christian or
because you want Jesus to protect the furry little body?

Yep. Especially sick old women.

Don't blame you. I think you can ask them to put a notation in your
file that you should get nonchildproof caps. In any case, I'd
definitely phone them and ask them how to avoid this in the future.

Our local pharmacy packages prescription drugs in plastic vials that have a
two-way cap---placed on the vial one way, the cap is user-friendly; the
other way, it is childproof.

I think I agree.  I'm not a big one on burials of any kind (except
obviously for the health reasons, as in not just dumping carcasses
around any old place).  Unlike Antigone, I don't think there are any
particular <spiritual> reasons for burying a body.  Or of visiting
graves, for that matter -- although my genealogical stuff has made me
interested in visiting cemeteries and I have in fact found myself
feeling like having conversations with the dead.  But my spiritual self
makes me believe that those conversations don't have to be beside their
graves.

But if I were one of the survivor people in that kind of setting, my
idea of what I'm big on might change.  Still, though, I think that
behavior was moderately flaky.

They were adjusted downward.  I think that's not unusual, though.  I
think there are frequent adjustments in economic figures, regardless of
administration and without necessarily involving nefarious motives.

I agree.  I am of course all for doing what we can to protect young
children in every way, including trying to find ways to prevent them
from poisoning themselves.  But sometimes when struggling with caps of
various kinds, I do wonder about the default.  I wonder why there aren't
special bottles of medicines or cleaners or whatevers for homes with
small children.  Yes, I see the problem, which is why I have not taken
on the cause of protesting:  Some ignorant parents might not buy the
child-proof choice, and some innocent child might die as a result.  I
do, however, appreciate very much that companies like Bayer sell bottles
that say "Not childproof" -- i.e., the top will come off without need of
a sledgehammer.

I don't think the Dems are dead. They suffered a huge kick in the head but I
don't think they're dead.

Not so long ago the Dems were the popular party. Remember when Papa Bush lost
the Oval Office? It's take the Republicans this long to gather themselves, work
out a winning strategy, implement it and bask in the results.

The Democrats were pathetic. They did absolutely nothing to make people want to
vote for them. Over the past couple of days I've grown tired of the Republicans
being sore losers. It wasn't a fair fight at all. How can you brag about
winning a battle when your opponent showed off ready for a bake off rather than
a brawl?

My guess is, the biggest factor gauging the success of the Republicans =is not
the economic issues that got them elected but what happens in relation to Iraq.

Well, you are coming through. You did not answer my test message to you

A political scientist in my lunch bunch said a couple of days ago that
the election results aren't really very notable -- that the idea of
Dubya's claiming them as a great victory just doesn't work in this
case.   He said that the reason midterm elections usually show a loss
for the party in the WH is that usually the Pres won by a solid majority
two years earlier and that he swept in some senators and reps with him.
Two years later, fewer people vote, some congresspeople retire, and the
result is likely to go in opposition to the pres's party.  But in 2000
the pres didn't win by a solid majority, in fact by not a majority at
all, and didn't sweep people in with him.  So these midterm elections
aren't typical.

They didn't have to think very hard to work out a winning strategy.  It
was 9/11 that did it.  Whichever party was in the WH at that time would
have reaped the political bounty.

> The Democrats were pathetic.

I agree, and I am feeling happy at the thought that Nancy Pelosi may
become a leader.  Sure, it's true that a more left Democratic Party will
lose the centrist votes.  And that, of course, means perhaps losing
elections.  Obviously I could never be a political candidate (for many
reasons).  My idealism just doesn't like the idea of trying to woo
people to vote for you by catering to whatever you think their beliefs
are.  I'm tired of mealy-mouthed Democrats who might as well be
Republicans.  I want a party that I feel strongly in synch with.
Although I don't know every vote or stance Pelosi has ever taken or
every word she's ever said, what I know about her sounds like my kind of
Democrat.  Like Wellstone, bless his soul.

What economic issues got them elected??  The wealthy of course (IN
GENERAL, JMW) voted Republican because the rich like to get richer --
i.e., the rich like those tax breaks for the rich.  But lots and lots of
non-rich people voted Republican.  The economy was one thing on the side
of the Democrats in this election.  (An economist said in my lunch group
yesterday that he was amused when people tried to tie the current state
of the economy to current or past administration/congress -- that the
economy was going to do its thing regardless of parties and politics.)

Interesting question.  I think I'd tend toward not wanting to put a
religious symbol of a particular kind on a grave of somebody I thought
might not be of that religion.  Like what if some other religion's god
was cruising around looking at graves and didn't take your soul because
somebody had put the wrong symbol on it?  You will, of course, ask how
that would be any different from no symbol at all, but surely gods are
wise enough to find graves and thus souls -- and the unmarked ones (as
in unreligiously marked) would catch the eye of the gods as worthy of
further examination.

I wouldn't.  I would use something else if I wanted to mark a grave.
The crosses on Buddy's grave at Furrbabies were temporary, btw.  They
were mainly for the funeral, which Spencer attended, and were still
there when I went to pick up Spencer a few days after Buddy's death.
But the idea is that those dog graves will go back to nature, unmarked.

I don't think that a cross says unequivocally "This is a grave."
Crosses along the sides of highways, for example, say to me, "This is
where somebody died in a wreck," not "This is where somebody is
buried."  My strong hunch is that the dead people are buried elsewhere.
As for what else would mark something unequivocally as a grave, I'd say
that a tombstone would, whether a professional one or a home-made one.

the election magic, it would be possible for the U.S. government and its

mere opinions of radical troublemakers. And, with continued efforts to
politicize every sector of the government, including the CIA, FBI, NEA, and

from the Presidential pen, for edits and censorship, so as to match the
reality that is desired...."

Our new building will have 27 network closets serving up to 3000 ports on
God knows how many VLANs.  And yet, I still get blank looks from my fellow
IT staff whenever I mention the need for some sort of change management
system.

The fact is that this sort of stuff is not sexy.  For the rank and file, it
does not bring promotion; for management, it does not bring additional
funding to the department.  And fundamentally, it's just not interesting.
It's housekeeping.  It's administrivia.  Let the secretaries take care of
it, is the attitude of both the hotshots and the pluggers.

16-year-old son failed to win the league's most
valuable player award. Michael Croteau is seeking
about $200,000 in psychological and punitive damages
from the association. He also demands that the MVP
trophy be taken from the winner and given to his son,
Steven. Croteau told the Globe and Mail newspaper in a
story published Thursday that Steven was the New
Brunswick Bantam AAA leading scorer, which made him
the most valuable player. He said the youth was so
crushed when another player won the award at a banquet
in March that he lost his desire to play. The league's
nine coaches or managers select the most valuable
player, and voting results are not disclosed. Steven
had a league-leading 45 goals and 42 assists in 27
games, while the boy named most valuable player
finished fourth in league scoring with 21 goals and 39
assists.

"How do you justify that?'' Croteau said in the Globe
and Mail. "It's quite obvious he's the most valuable
forward in the league.'' Brian Whitehead, the New
Brunswick Amateur Hockey Association executive
director, confirmed the lawsuit was filed but declined
to discuss details.

Yet another Bibliomania/Words-L crossover. It's too spooky.

She did receive my private test message, but wonders if she is properly
s*bscribed to Words-L. I'm guessing that she is, or she would not get
occasional messages to which she can reply.

She says:
"S*bscribing was one of the first things I did,
But something was weird there too.
I received the confirmation request, and send it, but I guess it was
never
received... Could you please ask the listmom if she can help? Thanks,

The biblio is much too long to post here - it consists of some entire
libraries. What I am thinking of primarily is the near-universal
belief and experience of members of many world religions that there is
ONE - whatever his/her/its name. As I said, there is SOME evidence - I did
not say that it is dispositive.

Perhaps you will cite evidence that there are several - or many? Is that
your experience?

There is no evidence to cite on either side, obviously. And that
explains why, after all these hundreds of years, people still are
willing to take up arms in the name of the god(s) in whom they have
chosen to believe (or not). Were there conclusive evidence, the world
would be a much quieter place.

This reminds me of a story the archaeologist told me. When he was a
young boy, he went out in a fishing boat near Mykonos. A terrible storm
came up, and people began to pray for deliverance. But the storm did not
abate. Suddenly, a very old man screamed out, "Poseidon, save us," and
within moments, the sea became calm. True story.

The archaeologist always swore "by all the gods," too, although he was
baptised as a Greek Orthodox person.

It appears that in both cases, what might be cited is evidence of belief,

Surprise deer harvest annoys drivers

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

>From either perspective, it's a split-second decision made on instinct.

     A deer approaches a roadway; cross or wait? A motorist spots the animal; brake, swerve or strike? A mistake by either party can prove fatal.

     If you're the motorist, this is the advice of David Yancy, a senior wildlife biologist with the Kentucky Department of Fish and Wildlife: "Try not to be aggressively evasive. A fair number of fatalities are not caused because the deer goes through the windshield; it's because the person tries to avoid the deer and strikes a tree or veers into oncoming traffic. Don't make a sharp cut. You're better off hitting the deer.

     "If you see one, be alert. There are often more."

     As deer breeding peaks and hunting season with guns begins today across the state, Yancy said the number of deer-vehicle accidents rises at this time every year. "Early to mid-November is the worst time," Yancy said. "Even if there was no hunting in late October, it would still be the worst time. That's the peak of their breeding activity."

     There's more bad news for motorists. The state's deer population is up about 12 percent, to 850,000, from the same time last year. "If it's higher, we try to make the regulations more liberal to bring up the number of doe kills," he said. "The public's tolerance is less than the hunters'. The hunters love to see all the deer."

     Yancy said fish and wildlife officers recorded about 4,000 deer-vehicle collisions statewide last year. "Deer-vehicle accidents have been stable for quite some time," he said. "The frequency does not seem to be changing."

     Many deer-vehicle collisions are not reported, because people fear their insurance premiums may rise, he said. Elizabeth Mosely, a spokeswoman for the Insurance Information Institute, said the average deer-vehicle collision causes $2,000 in damage. "Some can go as high as $8,000," she said. "It really just depends on how you hit the deer and what type of vehicle you're driving."

     Within the state, the institute recorded 4,161 deer-vehicle collision claims in 1999 and 4,000 in 2001. Like Yancy, Mosely said October through November is the peak period. "Hunting and mating season cause a high level of activity," she said. "The combination causes them to go places where they normally wouldn't."

     The constant migration of people into the wilderness also drives deer into the roadways, she said.

     According to the National Safety Council, there were 520,000 animal-related accidents last year, up from 490,000 in 2000. These accidents also resulted in more than 100 deaths and 4,000 injuries. The insurance industry reports more business, as well.

     "Deer claims are 21 percent higher in 2001 as compared to 1998, and deer claim severity has increased about 5 percent per year during the past three years for our company," said Eugene Connell, a senior vice president and division officer for the Erie Insurance Group in Erie, Pa.

     State police records show there were 292 deer-vehicle collisions resulting in 45 injuries in 2000, and 288 collisions resulting in 32 injuries in 2001.

     In every deer-vehicle collision, the motorist has the option of keeping the deer, state police Trooper Barry Meadows said. If the driver defers, police call the state road department, or "People will hear on the scanner that a deer has been hit, and they'll call us and want it," he said.

     The state's deer population grew significantly in the mid-1980s, Yancy said. To combat the boost, the fish and wildlife department went to a two-tag permit system in 1988, which was meant to raise the number of does killed. By 1991 the number of deer-vehicle accidents dropped, he said.

     Today the most concentrated areas are from Christian and Caldwell counties westward, from Hardin County northward and the northeastern part of the state, Yancy said.

     If your vehicle strikes a deer, it's best to not touch the animal. The frightened animal, in attempting to move, could hurt you or itself. The best procedure is to get your car off the road, if possible, and call the police.

     Colliding with a deer or animals is covered under the comprehensive portion of most automobile policies, so it's a good idea to report any vehicle damage to your insurance agent.

wow - I never thought Syria would get on board, but Debka says they've been
experiencing civil unrest; beltway construction had uncorked
anti-gonvernment protests south east of Damascus.  I wonder how the
resolution will be popularly accepted in Damascus.

I disagree about the universality. It's a nice cozy feeeling
to think there is, but mostly it is enforced by a coercive
religion and has a pretty weak grip.

This is the way for someone to make millions. The numbers change too
frequently for a print version, but wouldn't an Internet one be fine? It
has to come. Soon regular phones will be defunct. I wish I knew how to
do this so that I could become Really Rich.

Speaking of RR, I just learned that my sister and b-i-l, who are RRR.
attended a party to meet George and Laura last week. Must have been
similar to Natalie's brother's party. I don't know how much they paid,
but it probably was substantial.

Well, first you have to be Really Rich. Otherwise, all you can
do is set up a wimpy site where people voluntarily publish their
numbers. Then you will have to set up 600 disclaimers saying it's
not official. Or, you could go to the phone company and say you
can tap into their proprietary systems and publish numbers to
the net. In which case they will sit down and have a good laugh,
sick their less-employed lawyers on you, and set up the system
in their own good time.

Just in case you thought that the obvious demand for something
magically generates a supply ...

Me too. Sounds like a great expedition.

Yesterday, I went out to PF for the first time since my knee
surgery. Today, I went out again - to feed and groom Maria. I was
pretty tired by the time I left, and my right knee was announcing that it
needed a rest. I wanted vegetables, but did not want to wander through a
large store - not even Fresh Market. So I drove home via a route that has
some produce stands. Voila - a new one! I was able to shop, taking only a
few steps - I too ended up with zucchini and a sweet potato - also yellow
squash and one green pepper, all very reasonably priced.

Perhaps I am not clever enough to memorize all of the numbers, nor do I
always have an address book in my pocket.
I do not carry a purse. A reason I would like a directory, for example,
is that Ken got a cell phone while he was in CA. He called to tell me
the number, which I wrote on the only thing handy (I was in bed), which
was the Kleenex(TM) box. I forgot that the number was on the box and I
threw it away when it was empty. Couldn't call Ken when I wanted to, and
he was waiting to hear from me. Solution? A directory! Yes!

I have attended only one bowl game. I was in New Orleans in 1986 when
underdog UT beat Miami 35-7. What a day! Friends and I drove to NO the day
before. On game day, we had an early diner at Commander's Palace, one of
my favorite restaurants in the world (we strolled about the Garden
District a bit first - and met Archie Manning by accident). Then we went
to THE GAME! From the start, it was clear that we were in the game. Most
UT fans stood almost the entire game.

That night, looking down on Bourbon St. from a hotel balcony, I had the
experience of realizing that I knew almost every person I could see below
- they were all from Knoxville! It was very hard to find anyone from
Miami in the French Quarter that night.

The drive back the next day was fun, too - lots of orange flags etc. on
most vehicles.

I don't think today will go quite like that ... but of course I could be
wrong. At worst, though, the series will be 1-1.

I went to the Rose Bowl in 1959 (I think). Wisconsin (my sister's alma
mater) lost. Can't remember who they played. Do you know that there are
no bathrooms in that stadium? They have portapotties and you have to
leave the stadium, get your hand stamped, and come back in. Insanity.

The "real" solution would be to put your own phone book on
your own server, overlaid on a public directory. Too bad
the difficulties are so formidable. And people are so
deaf ...

That's what Yale's stadium is like, too, but it's very old.

Get with it Aly!  When someone gives you their number, it's
important.   You need to write it down someplace important.
Either that, or they will call back.

Even I am sort of behind with this.  When someone calls me from
their work mobile, I by default have their number in my
mobile's memory.  I keep forgetting this when I need to call them
back.

I don't think that my phone does this. But it may do it and I don't

Did anyone else get this:

Calvary greetings in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, I am former Mrs
Fatima Aisha Alamin, now Mrs Elizabeth Alamin, a widow to Late Sheik
Mohammed Alamin, I am 72years old, I am now a new Christian convert,
suffering from long time cancer of the breast. From all indications, my
condition is really deteriorating and is quite obvious that I may not
live more than six months, because the cancer stage has gotten to a very
severe stage.

        It sounds like the problem is on her end or with her provider
(but probably she has some settings not quite right).  In
any case, I could try to help her, but she'd just insult me
and ignore me.

Where is it written (other than by you) that simply because some other
entity provides a telephone number that it is important?  That entity
providing the number could easily be the world's biggest idiot, simply
wanting to jabber in your ear (or sell you something, or get you to donate

I dunno.  I really dislike using a cell phone.  The only reason I still
have mine is the thought that I might be traveling some and find it
important to be reachable as long as Mama is alive.  When she's no
longer alive, I can't think of any reason I'd want a cell phone.

I bet my RRSIL is totally engrossed in the Alabama governor situation
right now. Betcha she's spending all her time in strategizing about ways
to make the Republican the winner.  I haven't checked the news yet today
(other than reading the Starkville Daily News, which is mainly local),
so I don't know the latest on what's happening in Alabama.  I do think
it sounds quite strange, though, that that county apparently recounted
the votes after the vote-count-watchers had gone home and that the
alleged machine glitch affected only the gov total, not the total of any
of the other races on the ballot.  If that's true.

And now a diary note for Alec:  I am happy to report that I cut the
grass this morning and have declared the cutting season over.  This
afternoon I did house-cleaning, plus visiting Mama of course.

And now the dryer buzzer has just buzzed, so I need to go take the
clothes out.

Football.  I must admit that I'd almost forgotten about football this
year.  Even the locally loyal Starkville Daily News has less and less to
say on the subject each week, and I've been ignoring it since about the
second week of the season.  I do know that we were supposedly playing
Alabama today.  Some things just fall into your vision at times, even if
you're not interested.  I assume we got stomped.  I'm guessing something
like 48-0.  Our so-called fb team this year is a sad joke.  But we're
supposed to be decent in basketball.  Where's Bradykins?  I need to
alert him to the fact that I will follow basketball this year -- or at
least for as long as we're not the basketball joke we usually are -- I
am one of little confidence in predictions.

I don't think so.  Time zones aren't a factor in my usual receipt of

And people find my reactions mutant?  Your response is worthy of
discussion in my SLA course, where we've been talking lately about the

victory that happened to be a bowl game doesn't mean that the discourse
is tied to bowl games.  It might be instead about victories or lack
thereof.

M-W has the usage I'm used to: "9 : a number of games (as of baseball)
played usually on consecutive days between two teams <in town for a
3-game series>".

AHD is more forgiving: " 8a. Sports A number of games played by the
same two teams, often in succession."

Hm. Onelook.com has a sports dictionary, but it just says "the group
of 4 downs a team has to advance 10 yards."

Anyway, I don't see anything indicating that 15+ years is a normal
interval for a series.

I'm getting more and more upset by that problem -- of spam filters of
the unsettable kind (as in the individual can't make choices).  It's
inconvenient that I can't send e-mail to my uncle from this address
(unless I change the outgoing mail server, of course), and it's tiresome
that I'm having to forward mail from my uncle to somebody in California
who can send him mail without its being blocked but can't receive mail
from him.

Spammers are the world's worst scum.  Who in the world responds to them,
thus stoking their fires??

I did. There is also evidence that that God is trinitarian, not single.

It seems to me that you are asking for a lot of information today. But
I've been floating in and out, so maybe it's my imagination.

I liked that a novelist called Click and Clack this morning while I was
on my way to the p.o. (note for literalists:  the call no doubt didn't
happen this morning while I was on my way to the p.o.), asking them
about how fast a certain kind of car in 1925 could travel between a
couple of different places in somewhere like Illinois.  It's a novel
about college sorority sisters.  Something to do with the mafia father
of one of them, I think.

I wish I remembered the context of Bethany's statement.  Wasn't it
something about gods?  I'm trying to think of the Supreme Court
connection.

Did anybody say it was a normal interval?  I'd say it's not the norm at
all.  But it happens.  If team X played team Y in 1900 and then for the
next time in 2002, it would still be called a series -- but far from a
typical one.

So saying there's "one god" isn't the same as saying there's "a single
god"?  Interesting.  And what's the <evidence> you refer to?

She wouldn't tell Click and Clack her working title.  But she's written
sixty-five pages.  She's worried about how long it should take them to
drive from X to Y, though, and thus called upon C&C for the answer.

I don't find them that much of a nuisance - and I do get a lot of them -I
can almost always tell from the header that a message is spam - I just hit
the d key and go on.

On Webmail, we now have <settable> filters - I have not tried them yet.

You said that you do not think a belief can ever constitute evidence. It

I no longer have your original post in front of me - but IIRC you did not
use quite that langauge. I think you said something about a god being
single.

The God I talk about is not single, not married, not widowed, not
divorced - but is trinitarian.

Re evidence - see my earlier post.

Please note that if there is only one, then it doesn't make any sense to
talk about "single gods."

I said you probably received that spam because you had been talking
recently about single gods.  To me that means as opposed to plural gods.

By whom? I looked at the Knoxville newspaper and the Miami newspaper,
and the only mention of series is in the latter, in reference to the
first "group of 4 downs a team has to advance 10 yards". (This is
quoted from the glossary of sports terms I found on onelook.com.)

Ahh, I see your point now.  But it nevertheless makes sense to me to say
that you were talking about single gods.

I think the meaning is clear from the context--Dr Maynor means
(multiple different) conceptions of a single god.

By people who talk about serieses.  That doesn't mean that they have to
talk about it constantly.  Iow, the Knoxville or Miami newspapers don't
have to use that word on a particular day in order for it to be
considered a real word for the concept.

I'm not assuming anything, but I'd say that what you're talking about is
a different subject from spam filters -- it was apparently some kind of
in-house virus control at your ISP.

True. But if no one uses it, then it makes me think that perhaps it's
not such a valid word choice in this context.

I don't understand your leap to "no one uses it."  It's an ordinary word
in the sports world.  As I said above, that doesn't mean that every
newspaper in the country has to use it every day.

You're conflating viruses and spam. They blocked her because she had a
virus. That's different.

I don't know that much about it.  But for awhile my friend April, who was
getting dial-up access through panax.com while using her own domain
barharbormaine.org as an email address, could not get an email through to
any of us at panax.com.   Somehow they detected that one of her computers
was infected.  They blocked her.  She cleaned up her computer, and, I
think, called them to say she was clean.  They let her back through.   Are

We've talked before about how much meaning polls might have.  I find
this one strange.  If it's even a remotely accurate reflection of
people's ideas, why did they vote the way they did?

It's not a leap, it's what I found. No one using it with reference to
this game, let alone one a hundred years ago. That's what I mean by
'in this context': in the context that we had been discussing.

Yes, it is, but it's generally used for games that are much closer
together, or at least at regular intervals.

No, it doesn't. But evidence would support the usage.

No one?  I don't remember now which teams we were talking about (except
that one was UT), but it's quite normal for the "series record" to be
included in statistics about a game.  Any two teams that have played
have a "series record."  Even just one meeting between them is called a
series in some contexts.

If it is even slightly accurate, then it would be the classic
have it both ways. In other words, I did what was right, and
now let me yawp about the serious misgivings I have about it.
You don't see people doing this? It's an epidemic.

Of course, I don't believe the poll is accurate. The people
have spoken.

This is not a direct answer to your question, but note that a poll
presumably samples the whole population, while the vote represents only
people who chose to vote.

No, I'd say it speaks more to your ignorance of football terminology.
And I don't mean that as an insult.  Most people are ignorant of things
they aren't interested in following.

I'm sure a web search will pop up examples.

Ok, here's one that involves a series record of 0-0:

**********
                A: I don’t know why I was sort of surprised by this, but
the Florida-Michigan series record is 0-0. Unless I blew
                past it when I looked it up in a couple of different
places, Michigan played Miami and Florida State (1-1 against
                both), but the Wolverines haven’t played the Gators.

No.  But the current context was football -- what Bethany said about the
UT-Miami series.

Ah.  More to talk about in class next week.  We were talking not long
ago about low-context vs high-context cultures.  The US overall is
pretty lc, of course, but I think your personal culture must be even
lower than the national norm.

It's kind of fun looking up series records.  I just returned to the
googling that I had started for Karen and discovered that Baylor has
beaten us 3-2 in baseball.  That surprised me.  (The dates of our
meeting aren't given.)

I also found out today's fb score by chance -- by popping up a series
record thing for Alabama.  We didn't lose by nearly as much as I had
expected.  Alabama says "first in series" rather than 0-0 for teams they
haven't played before, btw:

Have I mentioned before that the MSU student wiccan/pagan organization

Are you saying that you don't think there are cultural differences in
how explicit people are expected to be?

Because when I think of YMCA, I think of Young Men's Christian
Association.  I long ago lost the gender connection with it (probably
about the time I took Senior Lifesaving at the YMCA and didn't have to
be a young man to do so -- I was a young woman).  But I still find the
juxtaposition of Christian and Pagan funny.

So, Bethany, when you are in court and are asked to present evidence, do

No, I would agree if, (1) I was a fan of meatlessly "descriptive"
statements bordering on the meaningless, (2) was comfortable with
another (IMO) meaningless term, namely "cultural differences". It
takes too many forms. I, for instance, spend almost all my time
in "programmer culture", or "newsgroup culture", or "pub culture"
or whatever, and I find these extremely "high-context". So where
is the Overall American Culture which is presumably low context?
(Certainly not anywhere where hundreds of unspecified behaviors
are silently considered a wee bit tacky ...) All it boils down
to, I think, is that in situations where the population is diverse
and not very rooted, and the lingua franca is foreign to everyone,
people tend to use "low-context" language to Cover Ass. In all
other cases, "low-context" is rare and a pathology.

[FS_ANNOUNCE] RED CHINA CLAIMS TO BE INSPIRATION BEHIND SEPT. 11 ATTACKS

fs_announce@freedomsite.org fs_announce@freedomsite.org

Fri, 27 Sep 2002 16:17:55 -0400

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

Lost in much of the discussion of the attack on the U.S. on September 11,
2001 are triumphant comments by the authors of Unrestricted Warfare, a war
manual for the Red Chinese Army, anticipating a war against the U.S. as
early as 2014. This book sees a multi-pronged attack on the U.S. by many
means, including sabotage and the sort of guerrilla attacks characterized
by September 11, attacks that would spread terror and cripple the U.S.
economy.

The authors, two Chinese Army "colonels were quick to take credit for the
attacks on the World
Trade Center, telling the paper their strategy had worked and that
September 11, 2001 very likely is the beginning of the decline of the
United States, as a superpower. Qiao and Wang offer in Unrestricted Warfare
several new methods for destroying the U.S.
-- from manipulating U.S. media --,
to homicide-suicide bombing, to using immigrants as a fifth column."

Key to the September 11 was the ability to use recruits from a huge,
unscreened and often unassimilated immigrant fifth column. Equally
worrisome are the millions of Chinese in Canada and the U.S., many loyal to
their communist homeland and not compelled to assimilate or alter their
allegiance, thanks to the pernicious doctrines of multiculturalism in
Canada and the U.S.

Using terrorism or unconventional warfare the immigrant fifth column can
seriously weaken and damage America (or Canada) from within. Once again,
the September 11 attacks  demonstrates that, in terms of terrorism, IT'S
IMMIGRATION, STUPID.

CHINESE PLANNERS TOOK CREDIT FOR 9/11

Breaking from NewsMax.com -- September 25, 2002

China's Military Planners Took Credit for 9/11

Soon after the horrific attacks on the World Trade Center and Pentagon,
two high-ranking Chinese military planners took credit for the 9/11
attacks -- and were even hailed as national heroes in China.

In fact, three years before 9/11, the Chinese colonels had proposed the
attacks and cited Osama bin Laden by name in their book "Unrestricted
Warfare."

The authors of "Unrestricted Warfare" are Senior Cols. Qiao Liang and
Wang Xiangsui, and in 1999 they wrote that an attack by bin Laden on the
World Trade Center would be just the type of "unrestricted warfare"  that
could bring down America.

The book was published by China's People's Liberation Army and had the
endorsement of the Chinese government.

"Unrestricted Warfare" makes clear its purpose: offering China and other
"weak" countries a strategy to destroy the U.S. without a full-scale
invasion, using unusual or "asymmetrical" warfare.

NewsMax has recently obtained the CIA translation of this astounding
book and has made it available with an introduction by Al Santoli,
editor of the prestigious China Reform Monitor.

The importance of this book was highlighted soon after 9/11, when the
Chinese colonels were treated as national heroes.

In one interview with the Chinese government-owned Ta Kung Pao newspaper
in Hong Kong, the colonels offered little sympathy for the Americans
killed in 9/11.

They told the paper, "The series of attacks taking place in the United
States were very dreary and terrifying, but they must not be viewed from
a single perspective" -- that is, the U.S. as victims. The colonels then
added coldly that the Americans "were victims of U.S. foreign policy."

The colonels were quick to take credit for the attacks on the World
Trade Center, telling the paper their strategy had worked and that
"September 11, 2001 very likely is the beginning of the decline of the
United States, as a superpower."

Qiao and Wang offer in "Unrestricted Warfare" several new methods for
destroying the U.S. -- from manipulating U.S. media, to homicide-suicide
bombing, to using immigrants as a fifth column, and even employing cyber
attacks to destroy America's critical infrastructure.

Both colonels agreed that the unconventional attacks of 9/11 were right
from the pages of their book, and they demonstrated their theory works.
"The attacks demonstrated the United States' fragility and weakness and
showed that essentially it is unable to stand attacks. ... The United
States, a giant tiger, has been dealing with mice; unexpectedly, this
time it was bitten by mice -- it has been wielding a large hammer but has
been unable to find the flea.

"From a short-term perspective, the attacks in the United States will
very likely have some effect on China's economy -- they might affect
China's economic growth. However, from a long-term viewpoint, they  could
be favorable to China."

"Unrestricted Warfare" has set off alarm bells among several
high-ranking U.S. officers.

Adm. Thomas Moorer, former chairman of Joint Chiefs of Staff, warns,
"'Unrestricted Warfare' reveals China's game plan in its coming war with
America." He adds ominously, "China thinks it can destroy America by
using these tactics."

Maj. Gen. John K. Singlaub, former chief of staff of U.S. Forces Korea,
shares Adm. Moorer's view.

"The 9/11 attacks may just be the beginning. Many terrorist nations and
groups will try to imitate this operation," Gen. Singlaub said, noting
"China's war book 'Unrestricted Warfare' will be their text."

The translation of "Unrestricted Warfare" made for the CIA is now
available to NewsMax readers:

I think it means you're looking at a late-teen / twenty-something
demographic which is probably mostly white-bread suburban.  [With a POTUS
who can say with his version of a straight face, "I believe the role of the
military is to fight and win war and, therefore, prevent war from happening
in the first place" (Bush/Gore debate, 2000-10-03), it is the era of Newspeak.]

Here are "funky urban teens" (even *more* white-bread than what you're
looking for, if you can imagine it):
<http://www.veer.com/results.asp?image=ISP0000064#results>.

Here are funky "urban divas": <http://www.urbandivas.com/>.

Here is "Organic Detroit": <http://www.organicdetroit.com/>.

and lo and behold, there you are! All of you even.
Hopefully it will keep doing this, but I'm getting good at complaining!

So you think that having too many forms makes the term meaningless for
the concept?

It's the way people tend to communicate in non-specialized groups --
like a bunch of people thrown together somewhere who aren't part of the
same <network>.  I've asked the question before "what is US culture?"
and not gotten any answers that I found useful, btw.  I remember asking
it here in relation to "Canadian culture."  Nevertheless, I think the
culture pie can be sliced like the dialect pie.

Re topics like HC and LC, these conversational styles are acquired
during the language-acquisition process the same way we acquire things
like spatial distances, markers in conversational turn-taking (as in
whether there's a pause between speakers, how long it is, etc.), etc.
Iow, we develop conversational styles based on who we're around when
acquiring language.  That's why there are <cultural differences> in such
styles.

Whether you view it as rare and a pathology is perhaps culturally based.
;-)  Some Japanese do find the USAer's need for explicitness at least
quite strange.

More like, how many mediocre programmers do I see putting one

I don't know if anomalies is the right word.  Everyone knows it's

I'll agree with that.  It's also management isn't any better at

Ok, so it's not always important.  But when someone gives me
their number and I expect to have to call them back, you can bet
I'm going to try and put it down somewhere not likely to be
thrown away.  Since most of the new numbers I get go directly
into my mobile you can bet that I back the phone up to the
computer on a regular basis.

Yes, as a matter of fact:

For general MLA format info for my students, I like Purdue's

I asked you for evidence and you gave me a book name and ISBN number. So
if you don't mean that what is in the book is evidence, do you mean that
the existence of the bookk itself is the evidence? Sorry, I can't buy
that.

When I worked at a company named A.D.P. (Automatic Data Processing), I
added for each file used by the program a one line comment identifying the
file's name and purpose. Not two or three lines, just one. During their
change management, they noticed this and were furious. They said that any
of their employees who had been there for 6 months would have learned that
sort of information already, and so the comments were unnecessary. They
said that I, a contract programmer, was paid to program, not write
comments. They paid for my time in deleting the comments, and terminated my
contract.

Are the managers in your organization willing to support programmers who
include comments ?

Thanks for telling me a story where somthing was obviously worse!

The managers don't look at the code.  So I would say the answer
is yes. And there probably are comments in the code, just
not this bit that I was looking at, and it was, admittedly,
fresh.  Stuff I write doensn't always have comments in it the
first time through either.

This lack of baseline is about ownership and control, and a
consultant methodology that ensures that System Itegrators remain
in control.

Besides, I don't work for a software house, I work for a
marketing company.

    No, the first term paper I ever wrote was on the Republic P-47.  I
remember it clearly because the teacher was a newly-minted grad from Ball
State and she marked me down because she didn't believe there was such a word

Thanks!

I wanted to contribute a pointer to a styleguide/how-to for writing "good
business documents" for the linked, on-screen environment of the Web.  The
site itself is a little bit dated, but I think it's still a useful resource.

http://www.gooddocuments.com/

Hmm, since that also covers web usability, I have to include a pointer to
my favorite book on that topic:

http://www.istori.com/cgi-bin/wiki?Don't_Make_Me_Think

The techniques in the book used to present crisply and effectively in an
audience-based way are useful in any sort of presentation, not just web pages.

Mine was on T.S. Eliot's The Cocktail Party.  I wanted to write on The
Wasteland.  But the teacher said I was too young for that.

This one's for 'Al, from <http://www.istori.com/log/>:

GlobalSecurity.org [1] calls itself the "foremost independent source of
information and analysis of the U.S. campaign against terrorism". It is an
information-rich resource for following news about military actions [2] or
for finding out about military and government installations around the
world -- Diego Garcia [3], for example.

Among other things, they support the use of commercial satellite imagery
for independent intelligence assessments, and have collected some very
interesting examples in their GlobalSecurity Picture of the Week [4] section.

No, I do NOT want to play games. That's why I value explicitness.

On Sun, 10 Nov 2002, Natalie Maynor asked for my definition of the word
Christian.

A distinction needs to be made between the word 'Christian' as applied
to a person (we can speak of a 'Christian person' or a 'Christian', and
substantively mean the same thing) and as applied to non-persons (e.g., a
YMCA).

A Christian person is one who is in the process of being transformed.
Often it is wrongly thought that a Christian person is one who is
*already* transformed, and this cannot be true except in a proleptic (even
now-not yet) sense.

In the process of transformation, we empty best by filling, rather than by
spilling. That is suggested in the parable of the man from whom demons had
been driven who left the house empty, found 7 others, and returned. The
message is: "I cannot be transformed by emptying myself of my sin, but
only by the attractiveness of being filled with God." (See Matthew
12:43-45 and Luke 11:24-26.)

In more narrowly theological terms, a Christian person is one who has
been adopted by God and made a member of Christ's body, the Church (for
Episcopal language, see Catchism, BCP, p. 858).

The sacrament by which that adoption occurs is Holy Baptism, the outward
and visible sign of the sacrament.

Baptism may occur in a variety of ways - with water and in the name of
the Father, Son and Holy Spirit - or with words only in an emergency
situation - or, with no outward and visible sign. Theology has
acknowledged the 'baptism of desire' and the 'baptism of blood.'

To think it funny (do you mean "out-of-character," "rather than "odd" or
"humorous"?) that the YMCA allows wiccan meetings, you appear to fall into
the trap of the doctrinalization of Christianity. I.e., you appear to
accept the false premise that true doctrine means true Christianity.
(See Sarah Coakley's _Powers and Submissions_.)

To get from Christian-as-being-in-process-person to
Christian-as-being-in-process-institution when one's basic understanding
is of Christian-as-end-product-person requires a lot of teaching and
steps. It is the old saw about the Church being a hospital for sinners and
not a hotel for saints.

What I find specifically narrow about your conception, Natalie, is the
implicit idea that a Christian organization should ban all those with
different beliefs about the path. Banning is not an important part of
Christianity - though it is, of course, an important part of the Roman
Catholic church and some fundamentalist sects - no institutions are
perfect - because 'banning' is, of course, part and parcel of the
doctrinalization of Christianity - see above.

Further, I think that your view of faith is frozen at a very primitive and
childish (literal) level, one which you appear to have rejected. When you
first posted about "furry little bodies" and multiple gods looking for
their own, I started to write, "I love it when you sound like you are 12
years old." I did not - primarily because I do NOT love it when you sound
like you are 12 years old. I hate it.

Both faith and spirituality can develop and grow. If you are interested in
this topic, you might look at:
_The Birth of the Living God_ by Ana Maria Rizzuto (an Argentinean
psychoanalsyt)

I'm amazed that so many of you remember this stuff.  I have no idea what
my first research paper was on.  Among the ones I remember writing in
high school were one on Winston Churchill's speeches and one on
Tennessee Williams.  I don't know which of those was first, and I'm sure
there were others.

Then I can see why you guessed that I have a narrow definition of
Christian. I've assumed that a Christian had to have some interest in
Christ.  Millions of people are in the process of being transformed as
you've described it above, including those who would be mightily
surprised to be called Christian.

Huh?  I don't think it funny in any sense that the YMCA *allows* the
meetings.  I can't imagine why they wouldn't.  What I think is funny is
that the pagan/wiccan club chooses that setting for their meetings.  Not
<bad> -- just funny.

What I find way weird is that you thought that was what I meant!  I've
known of many cases in my life of Christian churches inviting people of
other beliefs to use their facilities -- like a Jewish group needs a
meeting place while trying to build a synagogue, so they use the
Methodist church since their meetings are on different days.  Etc. etc.

I remember writing one on cotton seed in seventh-grade science.  I

Speaking of the YMCA building on campus, I'm not sure that it has
anything at all to do with the YMCA anymore.  The p.o. has occupied the
bottom part of it for all the years I've been here (space rented from
the university by the US postal service).  The Philosophy Dept used to
occupy one of the floors, but they moved to a little house across campus
several years ago.  That leaves the Counseling Center and I'm not sure
what else, if anything, in that building.  There's also a small
auditorium that is sometimes used for showing films.  Iow, I don't know
what the YMCA has to do with anything.

And re finding it funny that the pagan/wiccans choose that building, I
realize that there are some people who profess to be both pagan/wiccan
and xtian.  What makes the thought funny, though, of the pagans meeting
in the YMCA building is the traditional use of the term "pagan" within
xtianity.

Apparently the building is inhabited by only these three entities:

U.S. Post Office
Office of Student Life (whatever that is)
Counseling Center

Have I mentioned before the cute little combination church/synagogue I
saw in a tiny town in New Zealand?  I was looking at it, admiring it as
an old, wooden, cute building of the kind I like, when suddenly I
noticed that it had a cross on top and a star of david on a huge window
in front.  So I asked somebody about it and was told that the Christians
and Jews built it together many years ago because neither group could
afford to build a decent building alone.  It is still owned by and used
by both groups.

And speaking of such sharing, my mother's church in Huntsville shares a
parking lot with the synagogue next door since they don't need it at the
same time, and when the church was demolished by a tornado a number of
years ago, they held sunday school and church in the synagogue for over
a year while rebuilding.

Like buying pagan babies. But I guess that's Catholic.

I don't think I know about buying pagan babies.  Meanwhile, though, the
bottom has majorly fallen out, and cats and dogs are being tossed
furiously everywhere with thunder rumbling angrily.  I knew to expect
this.  Strange weather day -- in the 80s but with the promise of major
chunk-floating, gulley-washing, toad-strangling rains coming tonight and
then cooler tomorrow.  I hope the promised cold keeps my grass from
getting all revved up by the rain.  I think it will be ok.

This is an interesting twist on the practice, because some of those
pagan babies *were* Indians.

We have a week of NO RAIN in the forecast. I'm doing more
transplanting. Harvested about 8 tomatoes, and more are on the way--I
hope. New blossoms on the plants, anyway. And lettuce and bok choy and
arugala and sorrel and... and... I think maybe that's it.

I don't think you are really that dense, Natalie. What game are you

Are you a Christian? Whether you are or not, what is YOUR definition?

Good - that's because she didn't. As I said above, she appeared to IMPLY
it by saying there was something <funny> about a wiccan group meeting at
a YMCA. Of course, it now develops that they do NOT meet at a YMCA - they
meet in a YMCA BUILDING - a very different situation. Further, she has now
clarified what she did not make clear earlier, which is that it's the
wiccan group's choice that she finds weird, not the YMCA's choice.

The bimbo dogs next door are moving out! The husband just up and left
after 30 years of marriage; according to the wife, he didn't like
having three teenagers. She can't afford to keep the house and he
won't support them, so they have to move into an apt. The girls are
each taking a cat, but that leaves one cat and one dog left over. I
said that I'd feed the one cat, if they can't find anyone to take it,
since it never comes in the house. I was very tempted to take the dog,
named Cuddles, because it really is, but it would make me insane
within a week.

It's not clear what's going to happen to the house; it's not ready to
put on the market yet.

Now if I can only get the annoying dogs in back to move out...

I'm not playing any game.  What you described is what I would call
spiritual growth.  I didn't see anything in what you said to tie it to a
particular religion, other than that you said "see [the New Testament]"
for support.

> Are you a Christian? Whether you are or not, what is YOUR definition?

The answer to the first question depends on the answer to the second, of
course.  I'm definitely not the kind of Christian who thinks that poor,
little pagan babies are going to hell.  Iow, I'm not the kind of
Christian who thinks that xtianity is the one true religion.  Some of my
Japanese friends told me that they don't understand the idea of having
just one religion.  I agreed with them totally.  If being a Christian
means that I have to think that's the only acceptable religion, then my
answer is no.  And if being a Christian means believing literally that
God impregnated Mary, resulting in the birth of Jesus, then I'm not
one.  I don't believe that any more than I think Zeus turned himself
into a swan to <do it> with Leda.  I do, however, find the Christ
metaphor good.  And I'm happy to have grown up in a very liberal
Methodist church.  I remember as a teenager standing beside the coke
machine in the basement one time between Sunday School and church and
asking one of the preachers who was standing there if he thought that to
be a Christian you had to believe in things like the virgin birth.  He
said, "Of course not.  That's a metaphor."  So yes, I'm that kind of
Christian.

I just realized that I probably haven't answered your second question
clearly.  And I've got to go into the kitchen because the dinger just
dinged.  My personal definition of Christian in the sense of saying that
I am one is somebody who finds the Jesus metaphor good.

And I don't, btw, see that sprinkling water on heads or dunking bodies
into water is of any importance whatsoever.

Just as I was settling back into e-mail, the tornado sirens started

When we had that big storm in May, 1999, we tried putting Brandy into

I still miss him; I think he died too soon.

        I'd go with the whole baptized thing as the most basic
definition of Christian or not, but that's just me (unless
the person in question has renounced or converted).

        Vaguely ironic is how I'd think of it.

Hm. I have no interior rooms. I don't know what I'd do in a tornado.

Where do the tornado sirens sing from? Fire stations?

"Appeared to imply" means *you* inferred it.  I think that says much
more about you than it does about me.  I find it bizarre that you made
that assumption, but I must admit that I would find it funny regardless
of who decided where they would meet since what was funny to me was the
YMCA-Pagan connection.

Indeed!  ROFL.

See above.  I've never heard of a group sitting around waiting for bids
for it.  Usually the group decides on a possible meeting place and then
gets permission to meet there.

        I don't even remember any of the papers I wrote as an
undergraduate.  Man, my brain is for shit anymore.

        Did I mention I have three little nieces and/or nephews on
the way?  My sister-in-law is expecting twins in May, and my
sister is expeccting in March.  I'll be up in New England
this summer for a couple of weeks at least.

I'm getting confused.  How many dogs were there among the bimbo dogs?
Did the husband take one or more?

Go to the southwest corner of your house and make sure the window is

I'm not really sure where ours is/are.  I think we have just one that's
supposed to be heard all over town, but I'm not sure where it is.  But I
do wish that whoever decides when to turn it on would give the matter
more thought.  I found out that the tornadoes that have been sighted
coming this way are still south of Louisville, which is thirty miles
south of here.  The sirens have stopped now.  Maybe the turner-onner of
them found out that he/she was premature.

So the fact that a preacher stuck his hand into a bird-bath-looking
thing in the front of the church and then put it on my head when I was
six months old or whatever makes me a Christian?  Somehow that strikes
me as strange.

Yes, that was how I found it.  It's not as if I sat and laughed
hysterically.  This discussion of it has promoted it to a status far
beyond what it was for me.  It was a mild laugh at a vague irony.

        Me, too, but religion itself is pretty strange.  Not a lot of
logic to it.  Personally, I've been baptized three times.

The husband took none. There were 3--1 ran away. Now there's a big
one and a little one. The little one is named Cuddles. They had 4
cats, but the nicest one ran away (or was stolen), and now they have
3.

        Yes, but that baby is now in 4th grade and just about as tall

Aren't we all going to be revaccinated again, because of Saddam?

Well, only people who have been vaccinated more than once would be
revaccinated again, right?  That's me, though.  Like Bonniemae, I've
never had one that took.  I had the one in early childhood and had to go
get a note from my pediatrician every year to show the teacher at
show-your-vaccination-scar time.  At least until my pediatrician told me
just to show my impetigo scar instead, which I did from then on,
although I felt that something wasn't right about that.  Then I had
another vaccination before going to Europe in '69, back when the
international health card was required for returning to the US.  I don't
know whether that one might have taken if I hadn't jumped into a
swimming pool about thirty minutes after having it.  That night I was
eating dinner with some friends, one of whom was a doctor, and when I
asked him whether I perhaps shouldn't have done that, he cringed.  It
seems that I put everybody else in the pool at some kind of risk.  But
nobody had told me that in advance.  It was a hot day.  Swimming was <in
order>.  And actually I don't think anybody else was in the pool
anyway.  I'm not sure what kind of risk it was I put them at.  I've
forgotten that part.  Anyway, there was no indication that that
vaccination took either.

Tell the UT team to be of good cheer, Bethany.  I saw in today's
newspaper that that's who we're playing next Saturday.  I was looking at
my mother's Clarion-Ledger while visiting her this afternoon and noticed
a headline that sounded upbeat about our football, so I read the story.
This shows  you how bad we are:  People were feeling good because we
lost to Alabama by only fourteen points yesterday.  That's a sad state
of affairs, especially given that people are usually revved up about our
Alabama game since we're major rivals normally (probably because of
proximity -- they're the geographically closest team to us). Anyway, the
newspaper story was about how wonderful it was that they got only twice
as many points as we did.  We are definitely a cupcake this year --
that's not the word -- creampuff?  We're the kind of team one wishes to
play for a pleasant vacation in the season.

It's right under a window, which doesn't seem particularly safe.

I don't have a scar, but I think mine (two) took.

Listen up, Bradykins!  It's time for us to start talking basketball.
I'm going to get to know the team this year the way I did at the end of
that Final Four year.  I already know that one good one is named Mario.
I can't remember his last name because I keep thinking of Mario Hagan,
who's a football player.  This is Mario Somethingelse.  (What's with all
the Marios all of a sudden?  Sort of like Dontae.)  Mario is the one who
supposedly went pro at the end of the last season but then didn't.  And
there's Derrick Zimmerman.  I remember liking watching him on tv when I
got interested in basketball for a brief time last year.  He's cute.
And there's Igor or some such name -- the one from Poland -- the one who
lumbers about the court looking clumsy.  See how good I am at this
stuff?  It's gonna be fun (until we bomb out and I lose interest).

My third one took.  It was probably in 1968, which was shortly have I left
the convent.  Now I can't remember if I had it in order to take swimming or
if I couldn't take swimming because I had just had it.   Yes, it must have
been the second because I never took swimming in Wisconsin.  I did take it
when I was a graduate student at UT.  They played music underwater to
encourage us to put out faces in the water.  But I just floated on my back
to hear the music.  We were separated into two groups for the final
exam.  I was in the slow group.  We had to jump in the deep end and begin
to swim laps, using any combination of strokes we wanted to.  One length of
the pool was a D.  If you swam back to the deep end, it was a C.  Again, a
B, and four laps would be an A.  I stopped at the C.   I was tired and
terrified.  The grade didn't matter anyway, because it was an undergraduate
course and wouldn't affect my graduate grade point average.

        Because until the scar heals over, you are essentially
contagious -- you were spreading smallpox all over the pool.
  It wasn't a big deal back then because everybody had
immunity through vaccination, though.  One of the
controversies about vaccinating now is that those who
receive it are going to be contagious in a population that
is not fully immune.

        FWIW, I was among the last batch of kids to get the
immunization.  It must have taken pretty well as I still
have the scar -- it gets outlined very nicely by my freckles
every summer.

I think a nude girl holding a single rose with a dew drop on it,

I have a huge scar on my thigh from my first vaccination in
kindergarten. They didn't do them on arms then. But when I had another
before I went to Russia in 1969 I had one on my arm and it made no mark
at all, so I guess it didn't take. I am not sure I want another one,
because they say that sickly people might die from it.

Ha ha ha, yeah I forgot "spotless music". Clean lines, very clean.
Did you notice the absolutely zany shades of lipstick. Way funky.
Nobody can deny that the above is the greatest magnitude of funk

I can sort of swim.  Or I could that day.  Years later I took swimming
again when I was a rower.  I took the Super Chicken class twice at a
Knoxville Y.  I never did succeed at treading water or doing the crawl.  I
could sort of do the side stroke but not for long.  I can sort of dog
paddle but not for long.  I can float on my back but not for long.  The
whole thing is that I fear putting my face into the water.

Interesting. Starkville must be very different from the places I have
lived. Everywhere I have lived in the American South, groups like wiccans
have to take what they can get re meeting places. I can't imageinw the
RC Cathedral, First Baptist Church, Church St. Methodist, etc. standing in
line to get a wiccan group! Of course I assumed that you were objecting
to the YMCA's allowing them to meet there - because in my experience
wiccans have a heck of a time finding a meeting place. They are always
glad to take what they can get.

We live and we learn - especially about the American South ... it never
ceases to amaze me ...

Mine was on race prejudice.

I stumbled on some articles about what prejudice does for the prejudiced.
That was very important for me:  thinking that what people believe might
have a lot to do with self interest.

No, I don't think you understand.  Decent teams are occasionally
manhandled.  But we are consisently horrible this year.  We have won
ZERO conference games.  As in ZERO.  We even lost to Kentucky, which is
usually considered an automatic win.

Speaking of two creampuffs playing, I bet ESPN is sorry about its
Thanksgiving fare.  Ole Miss has been pretty creampuffy this year also.
Who in the world is going to want to watch the battle of the creampuffs
at the Egg Bowl?

Does someone who says 'redd up' also say 'auwf' for 'off'? (I think of
'auwf' as NJ/NYC and 'redd up' as PA. But I know little of American lx.)

It's much easier to put your whole body under, IMHO.

Although I find it hard to imagine what it would be like to not know how
to swim, I can guess that it really would be scary as an adult.  Things
<feel different> in adulthood.  Then again, I'm a pisces, so presumably
if I'd grown up in some kind of strange arid place without knowing about
water, I would nevertheless have been able to jump right in and feel
good about it.  I do find water extremely relaxing.  As I think I've
said before on this <service>, it's hard for me to think of swimming as
exercise.  I think of it as totally relaxing and feel as if I could keep
swimming forever and ever.

Re floating on your back, that kind of surprises me.  I remember in my
swimming-teaching days finding that people who weren't comfortable in
water usually claimed that they couldn't float.  (There are very, very
few genuine non-floaters in the world.  Most people who think they can't
really can.  They just don't realize it.)

Ahh, so were a thigher.  Even in my generation (generation might not be
the right term -- I think of you and me as the same generation -- what I
mean is that you are a bit older than I am) -- starting over -- even in
my age group, there were a few people who had the scars on their
thighs.  But it was arms for most of my classmates.

I'm not sure that I want another one because I simply don't care as much

Well, for one thing we're not talking about Starkville.  I thought I had
said that it was an MSU organization, not a Starkville city
organization.  But for another, I would guess that Starkville really is
different from Knoxville in that it's a college town rather than a city
that contains a college.  A town the size of Starkville without a
university would be a whole nother thing.  We have a pretty impressive
mosque, a "Korean Church of Starkville," etc. I don't think you'd find
these things in a town of this size in a non-university environment.

Remind me to check on where the MSU atheist/agnostic club meets.  I know
there is such a club, but I haven't noticed its meeting place.

Oh my god!  What a fair question.  Except that I wrote this paper maybe in
1951?  Do you realize how long ago that is!

Well, I'll wing it:  having a group identity makes people feel good, and
if it is a superior group identity, it makes them feel even better, and
even if they are poor and stupid and going nowhere, if they have a group
of others to think THEY'RE SO FUCKING WORSE that makes them feel better
too.

Something like that.  I do remember, for some reason, the critical author:
Gordon Allport or Alport.

I don't think I've actually read anything by him, but does it help that
I'm a TO1?  He was visiting here a long time ago, and I went to a small
party for him at somebody's else.  I remember talking to him but don't
remember what we talked about.

Why do you have to read it?  (Not that I'm suggesting you shouldn't read
it or shouldn't want to read it -- I'm just wondering about the have to
part.)

Amazing.  This is the first time I've looked at the current subscribers
in a long time, and I'm amazed at how many names I see of old-timers.
I'm sure some have been there all along, presumably on nomail, but have
all of them?  There are tons of old, familiar names.

Oh, I think I understand. We have won only one conference game - and it
took 6 OTs to do it. In face, Arkansas beat us - they just did not win the
game (because of the stupid OT rules in college football).

Of course, and that's why swimming is such a struggle with lots of

I understand that being in water is relaxing.  I could float on my back in
water that wasn't over my head for a long time.  As long as I know I can
stand up and walk out of the water, I'm fine.  I was afraid of water in my
face since childhood while, at the same time, being attracted to large
bodies of water.  I loved Lake Michigan.  I love the ocean.  I've even
floated on my back on a small Wisconsin lake in the dark, having
ascertained that the water was not over my head.  Yet, I once became
hysterical when I got a face full of water on an amusement park ride.

This seems weird.  Why would agnostics form a club and have meetings?  What

I was once at a New Tears Eve party at a Komsomol hotel in what was then Leningrad. There were people falling asleep with their heads in the salad, literaly. Down the tables there were bottles, every other white wine and every other vodka.

I've sometimes wondered if the visiting doctor liked to give little
girls the vaccinations on their thighs so that they could lift up their
little skirts. The boys had arm vaccinations. They didn't have to pull
down their pants. But maybe it was a consideration -- that a thigh scar
would be less defacing than an arm one for a girl. I can remember this
day rather well--it was in kindergarten and we all lined up and then the
girls were lifted up to sit on a table. I was wearing a red plaid
pleated skirt.

I think you must call Earthlink again. There is nothing that any of us

Unbelievable:

1. Bell South Telephone Book for Winston-Salem, North Carolina
2001-2002. by Bell South. Unused, still in shrink wrap, yellow. 4to.
(Keywords: STATES)
The price of the book is US$ 18.95

I grant you that genealogists of the future will want this thing, but
who would ever buy it now?

I stand corrected. I am all for ephemera, and I suppose this is
ephemeral by definition. As I said, I know that old ones are in demand.
I just can't imagine people buying new ones and storing them for the
future. I'd like to find the collector(s) you mention, because I think I
have about a dozen phonebooks here of recent vintage. Three counties,
Albany, NYC, local Germantown, and more.

However, if there were a cell phone directory, I'd buy it.

Good Lord deliver us! Your "personal definition" is "in the sense
of" saying that you "find the Jesus metaphor good." Well, bully for
you!

What does "the Jesus metapohor" mean exactly? I have no idea what you mean
by it. And why are you so reluctant to endorse even that that you must use
phrases like "in the sense of"? And what does it mean to "find it good"?

Talk about weasel words ...

You seem stuck between fundamentalism and agnosticism.

Now that this bird has been revived, I can say that while the idea is a
good one, it's been pre-conceived:
<http://www.cellphonedirectory.com/>.  Not that it seems to be wildly
successful, unfortunately.

<http://www.mobiledigits.com/> was another one, but it's even less
successful; it appears to be defunct.

I guess this is for people who don't have wildflowers. My wild garlic

Do you have wild oregano? Or is that what you planted your lawnspace
with? I'd love to do something like that, but we don't get enough rain.

I've seen xeriscaped yards that I like better than the Burpee
samples, and that's where I'm headed. Slowly.

I'm confused.  In what way is being atheist or agnostic inconsistent with associating

Well, I'd lump that under 'wild'. I'm sure most of my wildflowers
escaped from somewhere.

I think of people of an ilk getting together to talk about what they have
in common.  But having a lack of something in common or a question about
something in common, doesn't seem like much to discuss.  I see a
conversation going something like this:

"Hi, I'm Bonnie.  I'm not sure there is a god."

"Hi Bonnie.  I'm Paul.  I'm not sure either."

Over.  Done.  End of meeting.

At first I thought that xeriscaping = sucky. I saw a lot of stupid
gardens in L.A., I guess. Living so close to the park and having
neighbors with beautiful xeriscaping has made me far more enthusiastic
about the prospect. I'm not the kind of person who would ever be a big
waterer.

What and/or why? I think they are just moving him around to find the
best slot. If they can get people to watch Monk on Monday, they might
keep them for the next half hour and prevent everyone from watching
Raymond who is on at 9 (CBS). I think this is their reason, at least.

Then when religious people meet it's like this?
"Hi, I'm Alyce. I am religious."
"Oh, hi, I'm Bonnie. So am I."
"OK, let's go now. The meeting is over."

Why do you think that questions about the existence of a god would be the only
possible topic? Atheists and agnostics I have known seem to have lots to say on the
topic of discrimination in a society that puts "In God We Trust" on its money.  They
also seem to have quite a bit to say about a standard of ethics that isn't scripture-
dictated.  In some ways I would guess there would be more to talk about because
they don't have all the answers about life already handed to them.

This is how programs are killed, though. I am not sure if they are

No, you could have worship ceremonies.   And you could talk about how well
you followed the guidelines and rules of the sect.  And you could lay plans
to do whatever is considered good by the group.  Etc. etc.

Maybe I just think of agnostics and atheists as free-thinkers,
going-against-the-crowd kind of people.  Why then would they want to form
their own crowd?  Maybe I'm just thinking of myself, an atheist.  I can't
see getting together with a bunch of other atheists to talk about it.

Hm, now I realize why I think oregano is dumb. There were a few bushes
near where we live and all us kids--except certain prissy SISTERS I
think--chewed and ate the leaves constantly. After a few years I got
sick of it.

Bear in mind that they contracted for 13 new episodes and that they put
it on ABC after the season had begun, so it didn't have a special slot.
I think they are just looking for the right place. Any night is fine

I think atheism or agnosticism is every bit as legitimate a philosophy as a
religion is, so I can imagine there would be a lot to talk about if one was
as interested in one's atheism as those who are interested in their
religion.  Some people aren't really interested in either, of course, and
they would probably be non-attenders.

I've found (like Paul) that those I know who are thinking atheists, etc. are
often more ethical/moral because they've taken the time to develop their
codes and think about them as opposed to those who have accepted a religion
but have never really thought about why or how they act.

One of the old textile mills in Lowell, MA caught fire the last year I was
in college there and burned to the ground.  The fire was extra intense
because they had the building filled with old telephone books.  I'm sure
there was collector somewhere weeping at the loss of millions of yellow
pages.

I think the university built something on the spot (it had plans to restore
the mill -- the university has restored a bunch of the mills and converted
them) -- I saw pictures in one of the alumni magazines.  I should get up
there and visit one of these days.

What did we have?

A "weird" tree: I have no idea what this enormous strange tree
is, but it's still going strong. One of our neighbors--probably
a reasonable person but a b*tch according to all kids--tried
assassinating its bad ugly self repeatedly, since it blocked
her view ("view of what? the street? so she could keep the
neighborhood ringing with her reuters news service?" -- kids).
But its bad ugly self will not go. The only way is to cut
it down, but she has neither the clout nor the funds ...
Then there was the cotton bush, whose pods we popped every
year for "hands-on" cotton. Massacred by some ass wanting
to pave the yard. There were two different jasmines--can't
be described, since everything is "jasmine" in English. And
there was the divine "night jasmine", aka nyctanthes arbor
tristis. On the other side there was a huge berry with great-
smelling leaves, a mango, three coconuts and approximately 85
hibiscuses. The berry's gone for sure ... The hedges were
mostly henna, but there also were quite a few morning glories
and intermittent patches of thorny mimosas. Then came the ass
who classified just about everything as a "weed" ...

Veterans, scouts, and assorted other service folk were spared rain this
morning.  We paid our respects, fired guns in salute, prayed, made vows,
shook hands and congratulated recently elected policians, and did feast upon
return home.  An 86 y/o 101st Div. veteran of WWII carried the US flag the
entire parade route, and near the end at a 3-way intersection, where winds
also converge, the poor guy got blown into a galloping side step to the
left, where if it weren't for helping parade viewers, he would have toppled
for sure.  He should add another one to his jump-log, this time with
"streamer" listed as chute.

I don't understand the question completely ... My reasoned answer
would be there is no special method involved, the generic way of
achieving dumbness is fairly effective.

How do you mean? Coconuts are among the few good-looking palm
trees, in my opinion. They don't look plastic, and since they
are not associated with loud, tacky, touristy resorts, their
sight doesn't put reasonable people in a loud, tacky, touristy
mood.

Nothing's sadder than a "boulevard" lined with regularly spaced
plastic-looking palm trees ...

You could take these "ingredients" in groups at first. Then
once you pick up the spoor of dumb, hold on to it until you
have isolated the oregano.

Look, K.R.N., we know that no vowel in the world captures the
correct pronunciation of your name. We learned that during the

to pack K-R-N in two syllables achieves the correct pronunciation
for mortals.

Where I was in India (on the Bay of Bengal), the fishermen went to sea in
boats that basically were several, 5-7 maybe, palm logs lashed together to
form what amounted to a long, shallow bowl.  They launched these into the
surf; usually after a couple of tries, they would get beyond the surf line,
hoist a small, black, triangular sail, and proceed to sail out of
sight.  Brave men.

There were still areas that had decent-sized stands of palms---one of the
photos on my living-room wall shows such an area.  The palms are considered
sufficiently valuable that each palm near where we stayed was numbered.

I don't know what that means, since Allah appeared to me
yesterday while I was drinking tea in the empty lot near
Oak and Orleans, and said you will eventually be spending
eternal quality time with NAKED POOL BOYS.

I can't get to my mail since wojomedia appears to be dead or asleep
right now.  And I was not able to accomplish the things I needed to
accomplish in my office between 7 and 10 a.m. because the storms had
zapped parts of the campus network, meaning I couldn't get online to
find the address for a letter of recommendation I needed to write,
couldn't write the letter because I couldn't get to Wordperfect,
couldn't work on the syllabus I was planning to work on, couldn't do
much of anything.  Couldn't even use my Moneymate card to buy a coke
since the card-reader said "system down."   Everything came back up
while I was in my 10:00 class, but I had no time after that to do the
things I had hoped to do before that.  Sort of like Wojo will probably
come back to life just as it's time for me to leave the computer
tonight.  <sigh>.

|Natalie, a course for you --

|http://www.caths.cam.ac.uk/collegelife/chapel/AgnosAnnom/index.html

|Handouts:
|1: Finding Meaning? (questions, not answers)
|2: Creation or Chance?
|3: Jesus - simply a good teacher?
|4: Evil
|5: Why Christianity?
|6: The life of faith

|Bethany

Why is this a course for me?

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

|This seems weird.  Why would agnostics form a club and have meetings?  What
|would they talk about?


|    --bonniev

I dunno.  Maybe stuff like prayers in schools?

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

| I've sometimes wondered if the visiting doctor liked to give little
| girls the vaccinations on their thighs so that they could lift up their
| little skirts. The boys had arm vaccinations. They didn't have to pull
| down their pants. But maybe it was a consideration -- that a thigh scar
| would be less defacing than an arm one for a girl. I can remember this
| day rather well--it was in kindergarten and we all lined up and then the
| girls were lifted up to sit on a table. I was wearing a red plaid
| pleated skirt.

| alyce

Are you saying you got mass vaccinations?  We got ours from our own
doctors but had to show the teacher the scar at the beginning of each
school year.

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

>> Are you a Christian? Whether you are or not, what is YOUR definition?
>
>dinged.  My personal definition of Christian in the sense of saying that
>I am one is somebody who finds the Jesus metaphor good.

| Good Lord deliver us! Your "personal definition" is "in the sense
| of" saying that you "find the Jesus metaphor good." Well, bully for
| you!

Well, you asked the question.

| What does "the Jesus metapohor" mean exactly? I have no idea what you mean
| by it. And why are you so reluctant to endorse even that that you must use
| phrases like "in the sense of"? And what does it mean to "find it good"?

The Jesus metaphor means using a story to make useful moral points.
"In the sense" of means giving a definition of "Christian" in the context
of answering your question of whether I am one, not in the sense of a
dictionary definition.  "To find it good" means I find it a <nice story>
with <moral themes>.

| Talk about weasel words ...

Whatever you think is fine with me.  I will say that I'm a bit distrustful
of people who see religion in black and white.

| You seem stuck between fundamentalism and agnosticism.

|  [Bethany]

The agnosticism I can see.  In fact, I really don't understand how anybody
can be so sure of himorherself as not to be basically an agnostic.  But
where are you getting the idea of fundamentalism?  That's the farthest
thing from any religious thought I'd ever had.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
| Is ggs still listed?

| Betty

No, I don't think so.  I think that abht left it for a while since
deleting it would be such a hard thing to do, but sooner or later it
had to be done.

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

I'm tired of this archive stuff.  Will stop now and hope that Wojo
will rise again at some point.

It was either late (December) 1977 or 1978.  As for how long---in the first
24 hours there (spent mostly in and around airports in Bombay and Madras),
it was too damned long.  After a few days in the countryside of Tamal Nadu
(Mahabilipuram was, I believe, the Brit spelling of the town; the
indigenous spelling was approximately Mammalipuram), not long enough.  All
in all, we were there for about a week, playing at being very respected
foreign scientists representing the U.N. and all that.

We stayed at an Indian Tourist Commission place--Temple Bay, I seem to
remember.  The other big group staying there was a group of Russians from
Siberia (talk about loud red sunburns) who, when they found out that
Americans were in our group, would not talk to us.

Where we stayed was in the midst of the temple district; the monolithic
temples were astounding.  For a Yank, it also was sobering to stand on the
seashore near a partly submerged 10th or 11th Century pagoda and look down
the shoreline to, dimly in the distance, the Madras nuclear power
plant---and realize that by doing so, one was spanning some thousand years
of history and culture.

So how are you finding it? Is it as interesting as "Articulating
Reasons: An Introduction to Inferentialism", a nontechnical outline
by Bob Brandom of some of the themes of his "Making It Explicit"?

Due to a coincidence of life-events scarcely to be believed, I am
now reading what seems to be a mathematical beefing-up of the book.
I refer to "Causality" by Judea Pearl. It is not as slick with the
philosophical burbling, obviously, but it is mathematical enough
that even Dr Voigtlander will hesitate to call it crap. The power
of mathematical sigils is not to be sneered at.

I know not to which Dr. V. you refer; as for me, mathematics is overrated.

This makes me think you might like one of the books which my brother
in law gave me: "The Idea of India" by Sunil Khilnani. It's a short
book and a pretty fast read (I speak as someone stuck in chapter 3),
probably because there are no dumb cliches in there. Very well-written
and very thought-provoking in my opinion. In the picture above there's
something very right and something very wrong, and this book might help
put it in words.

He's been coming, but didn't show yesterday and today. I called tonight
about 5 to ask if he was OK. He went to a friend's house, so I spoke to
his father who was steamed that Riley had not come. He said that Riley
will be here tomorrow. I told Dad not to be too hard on the kid or he
will not want to come at all.

Yes, his vocabulary is fine. We have very brief conservations and he has
been smiling and pleasant. I don't know why suddenly he didn't come. I
am worried that he doesn't want to help any more. Tomorrow I will know
more.

Guessing how many dd's to do here to get down to approximately where

I bet you'd love my Burpee seed clock.  Remind me to take a picture
of it sometime and post it.  Somebody in the family (maybe me) gave
it to Daddy for a birthday or whatever many years ago.  I don't have
its bottom part set to give planting dates etc., but it's a neat clock
anyway.

U of.

About what?

I've given the best answer I can give.  If you want an <official> definition,
you can find one in any number of books.  You asked for my personal definition.  Apparently you don't find it <satisfactory>.  But there's nothing I can do
about that.

Almost give up on what and care about what?

| From your concerns about what roving preachers think about doctrine.


Roving preachers??  I'm trying to remember what I've said about roving
preachers and doctrines, much less being concerned about their opinions.
WAIT!  Is this a reference to my saying that I grew up in a liberal church,
where preachers didn't necessarily believe in things like the virgin birth?
If that's what you're referring to, then I'm not sure that the word
"concern" is relevant, although my guess is that if I'd been exposed
to literalist hell-fire-and-damnation preachers in my younger life, I would
have likely been able to answer your question very quickly about whether I
was a xtian and what my definition was -- no and sad idiots.  So yes, I do
think my early exposure made a difference in the development of my
attitudes.  I was not exposed to fundamentalists.

One bad thing about not going back and forth to Hville anymore is
that I don't see the zebras in West Point very often.  They live with

I thought it was kind of neat that the p.o. holiday fell on the real

I was so glad that Larry taped Boston Public for me.  I was cracking up
watching it this morning.  I am mutant about Monk. Is it a new religious

Yes, I did that a couple of weeks ago when he didn't come one day. But I
guess he forgot. Or doesn't care. But the last ten days he has come
regularly, and Saturday he said, "See you tomorrow," so it is a mystery
why he didn't come or call.

One last thought before I log off:  I am glad that tornadoes don't
follow highways.  I think I mentioned last night that tornadoes were
spotted in or near Louisville, about thirty miles south of here.  Well,
those were the tornadoes that zipped on to Columbus and demolished huge
buildings on the MUW campus.  If the tornadoes had been traveling in
cars, they would've come through Starkville on the way from Louisville
to Columbus.  But they weren't.  So Oktibbeha County was barefly
affected.  They traveled to the right of here.  It's amazing that there
was only one death in Lowndes County (our neighboring county -- where
Columbus is) given how much destruction of buildings there was.

I've been traveling, and today on the car
radio I listened to an interview of someone
connected with a new book that attempts
to outline the various changes we will be
seeing in various areas of our lives within
the next few years.  Some of it had to do
with biotech discoveries, some with new
modes of travel, etc. etc.  I missed the
introduction so didn't catch the name of
the interviewee and am not sure of the book,
but thought they said "Catalogue of Your
Future".

But they said it was available from B & N
and I don't find it on their site, so perhaps
I have the name wrong.

Anyone have any idea what this book is
or where I'd find it?  It sounded pretty
interesting.

Are these zone-dependent?

I am enjoying what Costco describes as Marinated Mozzarella (fresh
mozzarella in olive oil and basil, with a little red pepper) with
sliced tomatoes from my garden over a mixture of greens from my
garden: butter lettuce, arugula, sorrel, and lemon balm. Dang, I love
having a garden! (But I wish I knew what was eating the bok choy.)

Dictionary of the Future: The Words, Terms, and Trends That Define
the Way We'll Live, Work, and Talk by Faith Popcorn and Adam Hanft?

Here's the blurb: "Our revved-up world isn't just changing faster than
ever before, it's creating new words and new language at breakneck
speed. Now, Faith Popcorn, the futurist and trend authority who is
known as the Nostradamus of marketing -- and Adam Hanft, author,
business strategist and media critic -- have created the first-ever
Dictionary of the Future, a thought-provoking, entertaining and richly
informative collection of hundreds of new, emerging and just-invented
words and terms. While traditional dictionaries wait for language to
achieve familiarity, Dictionary of the Future is there first, enabling
readers to identify the latest trends across all dimensions of the
culture. Turn its pages and you see the future taking shape, word by
word, idea by idea. Organized by familiar categories such as the arts,
corporate America, education, health and technology -- and by
provocative rubrics such as "New Behaviors" and "New Structures" --
Dictionary of the Future includes newly minted language such as:
Yogurt Cities -- places with "active cultures" where baby boomers will
retire. Chimeraplasty -- molecular messengers that will repair damaged
genes. Free-Range Children -- new generation of kids raised without
over-programming.

Dictionary of the Future is an extraordinary advance look at
tomorrow. More than fascinating reading, more than a treat for anyone
who loves words, it's filled with valuable insights that can change
the way you think about your business, your career, your health and,
oh yes, the world."

Is there a Scully character in Monk? It was playing on the
big screen at the bar downstairs (from work), and she kind
of looked like it. Highly absorbing show I must say--almost
as much as switching the TV on and deducing from one frame
that the female whose face you saw is trying to win over
her new "boyfriend"'s sullen daughter.

Don't worry about it, this clumping is giving all of us a much more

Oh, these fine discriminations!

Of course Scully looks as smoothly cute to me as a stale
slice of ham, so I am hardly a gist.com critic ...

Thanks, Karen, but that does not sound like
the book I heard described.  It dealt more
with technology than with language.

You know I was reading an article by Richard Rorty about Fukuyama,
talking like it is a pretty weighty contribution etc, and I guess
I should have read it in full or whatever but I just got so tired
of that shit that I threw the book away. Now that history has been
rebooted by a couple or three airplanes, guess what, Rorty writes
a magazine article stating that he has lost it completely and plans
to submit to bottomless unreasoning terror. Now this doesn't apply
to anybody as dazzlingly clever as him, but anybody notice how old
people are predicting the onset of unprecedented chaos and destruction?
This self-indulgent freaking generation just gets grosser every day--
now they don't even want a world to exist after they die. I'll tell
you what's unprecedented--an expression of death-fear this disgusting
is unprecedented.

I am SO bad about looking at my mail--I mostly go through it for the
good stuff and let the rest of it sit. So I've actually been a whore
for a while and didn't know it. (Yes, I fear turning into your
mother.) I *LOVE* this shirt!!!!!

You said that once you asked a preacher standing nearby about the virgin
birth. As far as I could tell, you knew nothing about his
training/education/ etc. - but you took his word as gospel. That suggests
a pretty fundamentalist bent to me.

It has also been claimed that Buddhism is an atheistic religion, but maybe it would be better to call it agnostic.

When I switched the TV on, Charlie Rose, the world's least
interesting man, was doing his show. But he was interviewing
Juliann Moore, whom I thought I saw in "Uncle Vanya" or actually
the movie based on it, where IMO she looked incredibly beautiful.
Anyway, I wish I hadn't watched this interview, even the part
I did, because like a lot of interviewed actors, she sounded
like she was lying the whole time. Spouting a series of tiny
lies. The overall effect was very unpleasant and she didn't
look all that hot either. Alack! It was Chekhov who made her
beautiful! Now this constant drizzle of insincere and shallow
statements--it may be in the nature of "show business", or
maybe she just has a sucking-up kind of temperament, but my
theory is that it was based on a deeper lie, which is: the
making of deeply considered pronouncements when there are no
deep considerations. Why did she do that? What elicited this
kind of lie? Correct ... it was Charlie Rose. Recall the
Barbara Walters effect--every single person, when on her
horrifying show, makes one kind of face, and speaks in one
kind of tone. Which is of course that of a freakish grave
understated seriousness, which invariably makes you look
and sound like an idiot. Interviewers like these are pests
and should be recognized as such and switched off. Let
alone Howard Stern, Munir Mohammed on public access is
a fantastically better interviewer. Why do I rant so? Ah,
I rant as a man who once loved.

There were guns (canons) fired in salute here yesterday as well - but that was a greeting between a Russian destroyer and the castle of Oslo marking the beginning of Putin's visit here.

My office is just a little up the hill across the bay from the castle so I am getting used to the saluting. In Bergen I was used to the whistle on the daily arrival of one of the ships in the lines doing the cruise (or rather bus line or milk route with fixed stops and a time table) between Bergen and Finnmark in the north.

This is looking bad -- this being that wojo is still dead.  I know
that Tim is a night person, meaning I thought he would've fixed it
during the night.  Maybe it has a dead part that he's having to wait
for.  What a mess of mail there will be when it comes back up.

| What are dds/dd's?

Line deletion.  Like to delete the first 600 lines I'd enter '600 dd'.
Unix rules -- pun not intended.

Ok, how about this?  A Christian is a person who agrees for the most
part with the morals exemplified by the literary figure named Jesus of
Nazareth.

Why do you think I wouldn't know that?  The truth is that I can't
remember the details now since this was a long time ago -- he's been
dead for years now.  I can't even remember where he got his PhD -- or
DD I think it was.  Do preachers still get DDs?  Is that the right
term -- something like Doctor of Divinity?  Anyway, I don't know why
you assumed that my mentioning of him required my giving details of
his training and education.

I took his word as gospel?  No, I took his answer to my question as
an example of the theological bent of my childhood church, and I mentioned
it in this discussion for that same reason -- an illustration of the
kind of xtianity I was exposed to in my growing-up years.  I considered
that relevant in answering your questions about what I think xtianity is
and whether I consider myself a xtian.  If I had grown up in a more
narrow-minded religious setting, I would probably, as I said last night,
have different views on the subject.

I think being a confident atheist requires the same kind of

see how people can be so sure of something like that.

Is this the guy on my TV at 3 in the afternoon on NBC?  I see bits of him
every day as I switch the TV from channel 6 to channel 3 so that I can put
the DirecTV box on and check the market during soap opera
commercials.  He's a black man and he sings??  I can't stand him.

Julianne Moore played twin sisters on As The World Turns many years
ago.   I hated her then.  I thought she was uncommonly unattractive for an
actress back then.  I was stunned when she made it in Hollywood.

How about this:  A Christian is an individual who worships in community and
believes that Jesus Christ is the son of God, sent to deliver mankind from
sin.

Of course, even if Bethany thinks this is a marvelous definition, I won't
know because her posts still go directly to my trash bin.  Where they belong.

I didn't have the day off either. Normally the people who have kids in
school are out, making for a quiet day at the office.

As it was I didn't leave the building all day, I only left my desk long
enough to get a soda to go along with my sandwich and worked until nearly
7:30pm.

Despite my shitty day I too am thankful for our Veterans.

This isn't a good idea Karen (sorry Tushar I can't spell under the best of
circumstances I don't trust myself to substitute symbols for letters).
Given your list track record with Mack Daddy Tushie, I don't think he give

Oops.  I was feeling so discombobulated by the return of wojo that I
sent a blank reply.  What you asked for was my personal definition.  I
find it pretty stinky for you to find other people's beliefs stinky.

Wojo was down because of moving into another building, btw.

I have more basketball talk for you, Bradykins.  I asked at lunch today
about the mysterious newspaper story about Mario Austin.  Turns out that
it is something instigated by Alabama because they are still po'ed that
after their heavy recruiting of him a few years ago he spurned them and
came here.  (He's from Alabama.)  Supposedly his prominence at the end
of last season when he announced he was going professional but then
changed his mind aroused their resentment again, so they started
checking around and decided there was something questionable about his
high school diploma -- that some courses counted toward it that they
didn't think should have.  This makes little sense to me.  I realize
that the NCAA has rules about things like ACT scores, making a player
have to sit out his freshman year if his ACT is too low (Mario's wasn't
-- it was only slightly below average -- something like 20).  I can't
see how the NCAA can go poking around in high school records and telling
high schools which courses should or shouldn't count toward graduation.
Anyway, word is that it will be next week before a ruling is made.

It is, of course, very close to the standard definition; cf. m-w: "1 a: one
who professes belief in the teachings of Jesus Christ".

Standard definitions of say, "Buddhist", "Muslim", or "Jewish" are probably
equally spiritually "stinky"; I'm not sure that there's much to infer from
that.

Where does the stinkiness arise? Because the definition doesn't
address spirituality?

M-W's definition of Buddhism is "a religion of eastern and
central Asia growing out of the teaching of Gautama Buddha that
suffering is inherent in life and that one can be liberated from it by
mental and moral self-purification".

Stinky or not?

Peter! - read N's definition again:  "A Christian is a person who agrees
for the most part with the morals exemplified by the literary figure named
Jesus of Nazareth."

Note the hedges: "agrees ...with," "for the most part," "exeplified
by," "the literary figure named." It's a vague statement of partial
agreement with some of the characteristics of a character in a
book! It says nothing about living the teaching of ... about being
committed to ... etc.

If we are going to pick and choose among commercial dictionaries,
we could also select this "standrd definition":

1. believer in Jesus Christ as savior: somebody who believes that Jesus
Christ was sent to the world by God to save humanity, and
who tries to follow his teachings and example (Encarta online)

I doubt that. See above.

I don't believe that they (the NCAA) can.  However, they can and do require
that scholarship athletes meet the same diploma requirements (and college
admission requirements) as must other students.  In this case, probably
what was alleged---and what is being investigated---is whether Mr. Austin
received high-school credit for courses that he didn't take (or
failed).  Also, in the past, the NCAA has discovered instances of
prospective scholarship athletes taking correspondence courses (from
outfits similar to the "we'll give you a Ph.D. for your life experiences"
etc.) to either pad their high-school gradepoint averages or to apply to
diploma requirements.  So, the NCAA may also be looking at this possibility.

It always surprises me when self-professed Christians call others names.
It's one of the reasons I don't go to church any more.

I find it hard to understand it too, but yes--that lameass hedging
excuse for a definition IS considered "very close" to the standard
definition by a lot of highly educated people! They really DO NOT
see the difference!

I am quite happy you can split the hairs between "agrees for the most part

This article reminds me of something I heard the other day. Someone said
that the bulk of our foreign aid money goes to Israel to help beef up their
defenses. I can't remember where I heard this nor can I remember the figure
(a guess would be over 70%).

A quick google hasn't produced any evidence of this statement. However, I'm
not entirely sure I'm looking in the right place. So far what I've found is
on this site, http://www.usaid.gov/pubs/cbj2002/prog_pref2002.html The way
they have it laid out, broken down by regions and then by category, I don't
think I'll find exactly what I'm looking for.

Any suggestions?

I made a division II basketball  team as a walk on in my freshman year of
college. They called my high school to get my SAT score and my GPA. You had
to have a GPA above 2.0 and SAT score above 700. I don't think the rule
said you had to have both but they must have really needed the GPA because
they already had my SAT score as part of my college application.

The guidance counselor at my high school told the assistant coach she was
too busy doing real work to rush my transcripts over. She would get to them
within a couple weeks. Since I was a walk on I didn't have that stuff in
order earlier I called the principal of the school. She and I were close
enough that I didn't have a problem asking her for a favor. She had the
paper's faxed over that afternoon. I do not remember anything about which
classes I took being on the fax. Then again I'm not sure I ever saw it. All
I know is, once the coach received it I was eligible to participate.

To be honest, I think it "stinks spiritually" myself. There
is no content in Natalie's definition, and I daresay Natalie
will not be able to point out anything which could be justifiably
called an innovation by the "literary figure called Jesus Christ".
It is a pointless hedging non-definition, sorry. However, Natalie
still doesn't say that she has a code of ethics, and maybe a code
of public living, derived from a few literary figures and that's
about the role of religion in her life.

Now, if I have said that stinks, in what way am I a bad or
obnoxious guy? Or is it that I would be one if I started
calling myself a Christian? I think it's all boiling down
to "nothing shall be said about other people's religion".
Which does prevent unpleasantness, but gives a pretty
effective way to shut people up about any given thing--
just call it religion.

Same thing, unless you want to go deep into "who started it"
territory every time.

I will say that the fault lies with people who with boundless
enthusiasm once again reply to "there's evidence there's only
one god" and other statements.

I see that this is explained (sort of) in today's Clarion-Ledger.  It
seems that the NCAA rules do require that players take certain "core
courses" in high school:

http://www.clarionledger.com/news/0211/12/s02.html

Meanwhile, alas and alack, Wojo is dead again.  I wonder if they've
decided to rearrange the furnishings in the new building and have
unplugged it or something.  This is most annoying, although I can't
really complain since it's not a real ISP.  One should not look gift
horses in the mouth.  The above mail that I'm responding to is the last
list mail I've received.

I wish stores were
not so big. Even though I had arranged my list so that it was efficient
and I did not have to backtrack anywhere, it was a long, long walk.
--------
Tell me about it! No, you better not! Do they have those electric carts
where you shop? They have them in my store, but they're usually all in
use. When I move, (end of January) I'll have a rancher, no stairs to
climb up and down) and I was told by my daughter, who will live very
nearby, that a grocery store will be in reach, without having to cross the
street, so I've ordered an electric scooter that I can use there,
However, you need a doctor's prescription for one, and I just got
through calling them about it, and was told that they had sent the
paperwork to him some time ago, and hadn't received an answer.
Next call: said doctor; "receptionist: will check on matter."
So that was my day sofar. Haven't been to a store in 2 weeks, dau #2
at work, no one else available, so how am I supposed to gain weight
without food? Hopefully, my move will go smoothly, until than, better tie
my belt another notch! At least y'all are available to air my grievances, I
HOPE. Perhaps my next post will be more cheerful! Thanks for
listening, Theo

The only thing I called <stinky> (imprecise, also, of course) was <the
definition>.

alyce, I think it is very important for us to understand the concepts for
which we toss around terms. (You don't need to agree, of course.) I
suggest that recent discussion here makes clear why we CANNOT discuss
religion/Christianity/etc. - we are using the terms in vey different
senses.

As you may recall, I understand that we are all sinners - well, I think
Evelyn was an exception - or was it Doris? I forget - but some of us are
not interested in wallowing in sin. (That includes you, I suspect - but
of course that is none of my business.)

Thanks for your comments.

I see "for the most part" as the only thing in what I said that might be
considered a hedge.  Whatever is <hedgy> about "agrees with" or
"exemplified by" or "the literary figure named"??

Yes.  That is exactly what it was intended to say.  You asked for *my*
definition, not a dictionary definition.

Correct.

But the good news is that wojomedia seems to be working again!

Yes, the allegation of an altered transcript appears to be part of it,
although it does seem strange that they're investigating again what they
investigated a couple of years ago and found ok.  From what I've heard
and read of it, this case doesn't sound nearly as suspicious as the one
of our basketball star of the Final Four year -- Dontae Whatshisname,
who had taken a zillion hours at a junior college to become eligible for
entry here and for playing -- I mean a zillion hours in a semester --
something like that.  He's the one that some people were sad to hear
opted for going pro after just one year here but that people who knew
much about him knew might as well leave.  There's no way he could've
played a second season.  He was failing every course.

The difference between what and what?  Bethany didn't ask for *the*
definition, as in a dictionary or <standard> definition.  She asked for
my personal definition.  I see lots of differences between my personal
definition and a <standard> definition.

She was calling the defintion a name, not calling a person a name.  I
do, however, find it amusing that Bethany asked for my definition while
obviously believing that only hers is <right>.  She seems to feel
annoyed that somebody with my kind of view might be trying to horn in on
xtianity.  I tried to answer her two questions honestly -- the questions
of whether I considered myself a xtian and what my definition of it
was.  If it will make Bethany happy not to have the likes of me in her
exclusive club, then I'll change my answer and just say no -- I'm not
one.  I certainly don't want to be a party-crasher.

I don't have any idea what the percentage is.  I've probably read it,
but my brain rarely retains numbers of that kind.  I do know that the US
spends quite a bit in support of Israeli terrorism -- probably paid for
the gun that shot that three-year-old Palestian child in the back
yesterday or today or whenever it was.  Or was he two years old?  I
guess zapping them while they're still toddlers does cut down on future
terrorist attacks on Israel.  (And yes -- the terrorism in the Middle
East is on both sides.  I don't mean to suggest it's one-directional.
It's just that the US supports only one side of it.)

(I realize the point of your posting was to ask about googling stuff.  I
assume somebody else will answer that.  I don't know the answer.)

I just remembered that I promised a better picture -- better than the
one I took in the mirror.  And that picture didn't show the back at all,
which is definitely my favorite part of the shirt.

Did I claim there was anything spiritual in it?  I don't think so.  I
find other religions more spiritual.

No, I can't.  Or at least not off the top of my head.  It's not as if I
chose xtianity as my religion any more than I chose English as my
language or USAan as my nationality.  I was born into all these things.
But I see no particular reason to reject xtianity, based on my
experiences with it -- or at least I didn't before this discussion --
now I'm not so sure -- Bethany's commandeering of the religion is a bit
<offputting>.

I like to hear about people's religions.  I've always found it an

Those who don't like such discussions can of course call that a
"fault."  I replied to Bethany's statement about the evidence of only
one god because I really wanted to find out what evidence she had in
mind.  And that reminds me -- I don't think she's provided any yet.
That strikes me as kind of funny given her telling me that I had not
answered properly her request for my definition of a xtian.  And here we
still are without an answer to the "what evidence?" question.

My mail-reading has been crazy the past couple of days.  Have I missed
the story of why you're moving to Idaho, when the decision was made, the
plans for the move, etc?

Well, the WORLD is kind of funny. Pretty much everybody in it

Well, yes -- depending on your definition of "Christian."  Or maybe
not.  If your definition of "Christian" means having read the Jesus
story, then I don't think that "pretty much everybody" would qualify.
But the general metaphor fits most people pretty well, I'd say.  I mean
what's the real difference between flopping onto the ground and facing
Mecca at a certain time of day and moving your hands/arms into a sign of
the cross in certain situations?  Aren't those surface manifestations of
the same underlying <thing>?

I think you have me confused with someone else - maybe that preacher you
were quoting? I do not belong to any exclusive clubs - well, maybe
one: TVH.

I also do not find it helpful to use words as Humpty-Dumpty did. YMMV, of
course.

Okay. I was showing someone at work how to use colored fonts and didn't

Natalie, you really should not discuss religion. Your descriptions and
comments seem to lack sensitivity and respect, imho.

I don't remember quoting any preacher on the definition.  But your ideas
about xtianity strike me as very much proprietorial.  It's your turf,
and anybody who doesn't see it the same way had best stay off that turf.

What words?  (I'm not asking about Humpty-Dumpty.  I know about his
words.  I'm asking why you're mentioning HD here.)  Hmmm.  Are you
referrring to my definition of xtianity?  I will say again that it was
YOU who kept on and on about wanting MY definition -- not a dictionary
definition, not a standard definition, but MY personal definition.  If
you wanted a dictionary definition, why not look in a dictionary?

Archive-reading isn't the only time when html stuff is a pain in the
eye.  If you're reading in regular mail -- unix mailx -- it is very
messy.

I hate having to not discuss a topic I've always found interesting, but
ok.  I won't discuss it on Words-L -- though I'm not promising to not
discuss it in other places in my life.  It's probably true that I have a
problem in the sensitivity required to make clear distinctions among
religions (though I don't think it has anything to do with respect).  I
audited a course in Judaism six or eight years ago and never could quite
figure out how its basic tenets differed from those of Christianity.  I
adored the Rabbi who taught the course and loved debating with him.  (He
later sent me e-mail asking me to write him a recommendation for
something -- can't remember for what -- whatever it was, I wrote a
glowing one.)  Ditto other religions, though I haven't taken or audited
courses in them.  I've read books on most of the major religions of the
world and can't see how they differ from each other in their <deep
structure>.  Surface structure, yes, but not deep structure.  So yes --
I agree that I lack sensitivity.

And this whole discussion has made me realize my views more clearly.  In
answer to your question, Bethany:  No, I am not a Christian.  I had
thought I was -- as in it was my particular subdivision of a larger
religion.  But I'm thinking now that it may be too isolated -- too much
an island -- too <exclusive>.  I don't belong there.

Bethany obviously wants you in, don't be stupid.  I think you've been
pitched to, actually.  Don't play coy.

I think BB is referring to some of your diction, such as
"flopping." It sounds disrespectful.  I can even cite a
literarary reference to referring to praying as "flopping"
as being an insult (Tale of Two Cities).

In general, I enjoy discussions of religion because of the
thought and self-reflection they cause, but I don't like
discussing it with people who don't listen or respond to
what I'm saying in a meaningful way.

        The Venn diagram is getting really weird.  Can you be a
non-Christian and a Methodist?  Or are you out of it altogether?

Well as long as it's understood that the definition you offer
doesn't even correspond to any real-life notion of Christian.
I haven't met too many people who believe that Muslims are
Christian, for instance. However most Muslims would certainly
follow the moral teachings of the "literary character known
as Christ". What's the difference then? They merely believe
he had some good ideas and maybe a few miracles, but that he
was not the saviour and the son of god. But let me stop, since
I may have inadvertantly made an obnoxious statement.

I don't think there is any sensible doctrine-avoiding notion
of Christian. Why the urge to be called Christian while sticking
to a homebrewed moral code, I don't know.

I don't think so.  I hate positing the same underlying <thing>.  I have no
argument or evidence for this, I JUST HATE IT.

Like, we're all worshipping the same god, just some call it x y or z:  I
HATE THAT.

Of course she wants me in.  That's part of the xtian game that I don't
like:  the <missionary> thing -- the implication being that xtianity is
the <only answer> -- to whatever the question is.  But she wants me in
only if I quit thinking the way I currently think and start thinking the
way she thinks.

I guess this posting is a violation of my promise not to discuss
religion anymore on the list.  Sorry.  My excuse is that I'm thinking
that this is still the same discussion -- that it's a carryover.  But
now I'm going to turn off the computer and go to bed and start my new
leaf tomorrow of swearing off religious discussions.  I plan to enjoy
tonight's dreams of paganism, hermeticism (I love Henry and Thomas
Vaughan), deism, and various other isms, including of course liberalism.

Sweet dreams to you all, whatever your isms may be.

I agree with you.

For one thing, it leaves out my fave, pantheism.

People who have been saved do this - not just Christians.  They just want
to share the good news.  Give her a break.

This is still a continuation -- a carryover -- new mail had arrived, and
I'm reading it.  But I really am going to bed soon, ending my religious
discussions with tomorrow's new leaf.

Re can you be a non-Christian and a Methodist:  I see Methodism as a
subdivision of Christianity, which is a subdivision of the general
religion I believe in.  So I guess that concluding I'm not a Christian
automatically lops off my being a Methodist.  I can say in future
conversations (not on Words-L -- elsewhere) things like "if I were a
Christian, I'd be a Methodist" or "I used to be a Methodist."  But no, I
don't think I can call myself a Methodist while saying I'm not a
Christian.

PS:  I have told the funny story, haven't I, about when as a small child
a visiting friend asked me if I was a Christian and I said, "No, I'm a
Methodist."  The visiting friend went into the kitchen and told my
mother, who found it hilarious and told the preacher, who told it at
some point in his sermon the next Sunday --without my name, of course.
But there was a church in Jackson called the Christian Church -- a
denomination.  So I thought when that little girl said "Are you a
Christian?" she was asking whether I went to that particular church.
(She was not one of my <regular friends>.  She was kind of weird.)

Indeed you will be castigated.  But yes -- what you say above is exactly
my attitude.  Jesus was a literary character the story of whom offers
useful moral teachings.  This literary character portrayed some good
things -- like he had some good ideas and maybe some metaphorical
miracles.  The "saviour and son of god" part makes some metaphorical
sense, the "son of god" part more than the "saviour" part. I've never
been quite sure what we're to be saved from.

I don't get it, but I will accept it.  I respect your right to prefer
this fragmented god situation.

And now I really am turning off the computer and going to bed, never to
discuss religion again on Words-L, as much as that mandate bothers me.

What do you do with empty hangers, ones that you'll need for clean
clothes when you do laundry? Do you leave them in the closet or put
them somewhere? If you put them somewhere, where do you put them?

    Okay, I usually try to steer clear of these cookie fights, but I have to
ask:  "literay character"?  Are you saying that Christ, son of Joseph of
Nazareth, was a fictional characterization rather than a living person?
    There is evidence to the contrary from uninvolved persons, you know.

Leave them in the closet (it's not a built in closet, but you get
the idea).  But then, the drying racks for the clothes are just
outside the closet, and that's where we dump the mass of wet
laundry.  Since it's flannel shirt season, however, Pat is
suddenly wearing lots more hanger clothes than during the summer
and he's suddenly started using the bar that hangs above the
washing machine to hang the wet shirts on.  So, it might become
convenient to leave some hangers there.  We shall see.

Then again, I've always left them in the closet.  Though
sometimes I'll get them out of the closet right before I hang up
the wet clothes and hang them on the drying rack.

When I was a kid, we'd leave them in the closet, and then maybe
we'd fetch them and put them in the laundry basket.  So sometimes
when everything was all hung there'd be left over hangers in the
basket after the laundry was put away, and they'd hang out there
for the next round.

Why oh why do you want to know this (well, not *all* this)?

Leave them in the closet.  I find this an interesting question in that I
can't imagine putting them somewhere else -- like where would I put them
and why would I want to put them there instead of leaving them in the
closet?

You need a job.  You have entirely too much time on your hands.   I leave

No. 9 arrived last night--Josephine. Wonder where they got that. Not a

Peg Phillips, who played Ruth-Anne in Northern Exposure.
I always liked the way she stood up for herself, especially
when she stood up to Maurice after she paid off the lease

I just watched that episode last week.  "You pompous old goat!"  I have
twelve episodes of Northern Exposure on tape.  Remember the one where Chris
Stevens dreams he is at the Last Supper and the "entertainment" is his old

records down off the shelf ... ...   the ole time rock'n'roll."

Hi all.  Thanks for thinking of me.  I will look at the link and
contemplate a trip.

Oh, keeping track of the Words-L dropouts ... Bill Sjostrom is running
http://atlanticblog.blogspot.com, he's been getting a lot of mentions from
InstaPundit (http://www.instapundit.com).  I'm in that game too, although
less aggressively (http://coldspringshops.blogspot.com)

No, this is something that has vexed me since I've lived here.

> I leave them in the closet.

This doesn't work very well. I think it's because there are so many
closets and so many rods. When I do laundry, I usually need more
hangers than are available on the rod I'm going to put the clean
clothes on. I don't know why that's true, just that it is. I usually
have to scavenge hangers from almost all the rods. If I had a rod over
my washer, I'd put them there. What I have instead is cabinets, and
eyelevel cabinet space seemed too valuable to waste on hangers. Also,
hangers in cabinets is awkward.

I don't have leftover hangers, Bethany. When I moved here, I carefully
bought just the right number of plastic hangers. I have maybe 3 wire
hangers that I use for oldish t-shirts.

Everything I've read says that the economy is crucial to his
re-election prospects. I have to hope that self-interest wins out.

That's how I see it. That he is a totally cooperative person, and has
had to go against the tide in order to comply. And now that he has
complied, we will begin the dance--can the inspectors go wherever they
want whenever they want? Will the US pull a trick like last time and
pull the inspectors out? (I can't get over the fact that people still
think that they were expelled.) What will be the straw that breaks GWB's
back so that he starts the attack?

earlier this month.

Thank *you*. I had thought till now that it was 'cause of war'. The
distinction is a nice one.

I don't remember enough Latin to know if that would be causa belli or
something else.

But wicker molds, and I'd have my homeowner's insurance canceled!

I did see a nice hamper at Walmart, but there was no price on it. It
was open, made of a loose-woven cloth you could through in the wash.
The cloth fit over a sturdy metal frame. And I guess the question of
ideal hamper fits into the category of TMTOMH.

I toss my laundry directly into the washing machine (well, it lives on the floor
overnight).  When it's full, I toss in soap and hit "wash."  I usually get dressed out of
the dryer.  Who needs hangers?

By economists, or the Administration?

What's number one on the President's list of economic priorites?

These are both from recent speeches listed on the President's "Economic
Security" page <http://www.whitehouse.gov/infocus/economy/>, and are
headlined as economic agenda speeches -- budget discipline, fiscal
restraint, creating jobs, etc.

July 15, 2002: "In order to make sure we have economic growth and vitality,
in order to make sure we build on the foundation that is laid for economic
growth, I will enforce fiscal discipline in Washington, D.C. I think it is
so important that we make sure that we fund our priorities -- fighting the
war and the homeland defense, educating our children -- and that Congress
hold the line on additional spending."
<http://www.whitehouse.gov/news/releases/2002/07/20020715.html>

September 16, 2002: "It also means that we've got to set priorities. You
know, every idea sounds like a brilliant idea in Washington. Everybody's
idea is a great idea -- just up there they come with billions as the price
tag. The bill is a little high. So I said, why don't we work together to
create some priorities, starting with the most important priority, which is
defend America against killers. That's the most important priority.
(Applause.)  I can't put it any other way about them, either. They're
nothing but a bunch of cold-blooded killers. You've just got to understand
that about the nature of the enemy. They hate us because we love. They
hate, we love freedom, is why they hate us, and we're not going to quit
loving freedom. And so our most important priority, when it comes to
budgeting and time and effort is to protect innocent life here in America.
And make no mistake about it, we will. We'll do just that. (Applause.)"

Subject: quest for pounds
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii

In light of my continuing quest for pounds, and the difficulty of
shopping, I signed up yesterday for Meals on Wheels. I have been fixing
dinner, drinking Ensure Plus, and eating chocolate, but I am still not
getting enough calories, and I know the meals are not all that
well-balanced either. And so, I decided to try this new plan. You don't
have to pay anything, but I am going to pay (and way more than their
too-low suggested rate).

The first one came today. Not bad. A small portion of Salisbury steak
with gravy, half a baked potato, a good bit of spinach, a slice of rye
bread with a pat of butter, a little cup of canned peach slices, and a
half pint of skimmmed milk. I ate all of the meat, half of everything
else. Will try to eat the rest of the peaches tonight, because I have no
fruit in my diet ever. I know I should.
Now we will see if I have the capacity to eat my regular dinner tonight.
They say the meals on wheels thing is 1/3 of one's requirements. I can't
imagine eating three times that, but will try to do at least 2/3 or a
little more.

Hey, Theo--have you called Meals on Wheels?

Attach a bar to the underside of the cabinets and hang the hangers there.

Yes, I'm happy.  But Joey would have been even better.  Maybe when she's a
teenager, her friends will shorten it to Jo.  That would be nice also.

Usually I leave them in the closet. If a lot of them are hanging around I
gather them and put them on the shelf above the rack.

I have a question about joint tenancy (where two or more people
equally co-own real property, and if one dies, all of the property
goes to the surviving co-owners):  let's say that two people are
joint tenants and they both die, who gets the property?

Korea, Vietnam and Desert Storm did not improve the economy. WW II did.
The circumstances were entirely different. This one won't help the
economy--it will put us deeper into a deficit. It is not clear to me why
the Republicans have no problem with deficit spending anymore, when they
used to say how bad the Democrats were for doing it. And I don't
understand why the Democrats did not capitalize on this.

My guess:
Fred and Barney would have to die at precisely the same time.  If Fred outlived
Barney for even a moment, then the property would be Fred's and subject to the
terms of his will.

No, a will does no good except for the last person left.  Let's say that

Looked this up in answer to a question on another list about whether any
insurance programs have defined an embryo/fetus as a person.  The answer is
yes, the US government, as represented by Tommy Thompson, just did so.

This goes beyond the question of insurance coverage into the realm of
pro-life / pro-choice, of course.

Tommy Thompson issued a new regulation on 2002-09-27, published in the
Federal Register on 2002-10-02, which changed the language of the State
Children's Health Insurance Program (SCHIP), 42 CFR 457.10, from "Child
means an individual under the age of 19" to "Child means an individual
under the age of 19 including the period from conception to birth."

The regulation went into effect November 1, 2002.

Yup. I was surprised that so little notice was taken of it.
It will be back to the coat hangers (since that is the topic du jour).

None of this is particularly surprising.  The administration wants all the

Hi,

I took a sabbatical for sailing, owing to difficulties with an old car.
New car, and new sailing, next summer.

There's been some progress on the railroad, and Bill Sjostrom and I are
raising some hell in the blogosphere.  Cheers,

Steve (Karlson)

They do have the carts at several stores in this area, just not the one
where I can go most easily. Although I complained about the long walk,
my store is probably 1/3 the size of the larger supermarkets around
here. A new one just has opened in Rhinebeck that is said to be as big
as a city block. I can't imagine. That would have to have enough food in
it to feed all of the county and beyond.

Is literary figure the same thing as a fictional character?

The next step is to protect the rights of the unconceived

It is absurd in the extreme to try to extend the definition of "child" to conception.
Does this mean that kids in his state get to drink nine months sooner?  Does this
mean that a fertilized egg that fails to implant requires an inquest, coroner's report,
and death certificate?

I'm trying to understand (if understanding is even an option) why the Iraqi Parliament
rejected the UN resolution and then the announcement today.  It's not like
Parliament would be filled with independent thinkers.  Was Saddam Hussein trying
to demonstrate that he was complying in spite of the wishes of "the people" ?  Will
the US now have to ratchet up the demands in order to its causus belli ?  I hate
these games.

Gee, Karen, you asked a question. A stupid question granted, but a
question. Now you don't like the answers?  I really think you should not
discuss hangers any further because you are so insensitive and
disrespectful to people who were only trying to help.  Throw the damn

anything to indicate that a war would invigorate the
economy--everything I've read suggests the opposite.

He has something on underneath.

Mostly it is the material that it is made out of which makes it
comfortable.  It is 100% cotton, made in India.  It's a green and beige
check which goes nicely with Clyde's green granite kitchen.  It has a
pocket and a loop on it.  Clyde pins a dish towel through the loop which
gives him a convenient place to wipe his hands and keep the apron from
getting too dirty.  It washes up nicely without shrinkage or need for
ironing.  It stays soft.

I'm finding this very confusing.  I understand now (from what Steph
wrote) how one might put empty hangers in places other than closets, but
what I'm confused about is your clothes-storage system.  Do you move
clothes around from one closet or rod to another wantonly?  I change
them at season changes, which sometimes means changing them gradually
when the weather is <transitional> -- having a few coolish and a few
warmish things in the same closet.  But once the season is established,
I keep the same things in the same closet -- like if I wash a blouse
that lives on Rod X, the hanger stays on Rod X, where it is ready to
receive the clean blouse when the blouse is ready to return to the
closet.

I don't mean for this to be a cheap shot, and I'm not accumulating all of
the President's little missteps so I can "get" him, but while I was
browsing speeches, I saw this one and it was too good not to share.  The

September 23, 2002: "Congress also must understand they've got to pass an
energy bill. You see, an energy bill will be good for jobs. An energy bill
will be good for national security. We need an energy bill that encourages
consumption [sic], encourages new technologies so our cars are cleaner,
encourages new renewable energy sources, but at the same time encourages
increase of supply here at home, so we're less dependent on foreign sources

Then I should say:  thank you to everyone who responded. I do

heavy-handed.)

And look at the answers to my question, Lisa--it's not like those were

Why should I be considerate of unsolicited advice? Or even people who
give me unsolicited advice? In any case, I *haven't* been able to
figure this out myself in the year and a half I've lived here.

I was also thinking about that when listening to NPR on my way to campus
this morning, hearing that Saddam's son had urged them to vote yes to it
and hearing that they'd voted no.  This was, of course, before Saddam
announced his decision.  I do think there's an obvious plot involved --
I mean it's obvious that it's some kind of plot, not that the plot
itself is obvious.  Iow, I don't think the Parliament was making an
independent statement.

Been through?  Whatever I've been through in my life, it hasn't been her
fault.  Over the past seven years, we've forged a pretty solid relationship
based on mutual respect <and> affection.

The cynic would observe that this is simply another marketing ploy.  I'm
sure that the inserts are effective.  If I had two ovens, I might seriously
consider devoting one to establishing the insert environment.  Until that
day (which probably will never come). I'll stick with the baking stones and
the spray bottle.

But many were saying that the economy would have an effect on midterm
elections also.  Yet Dubya managed to whip the voters into a
defend-the-homeland frenzy that overrode thoughts on the economy.  That
may be pretty hard to sustain over the next couple of years, though.
But I dunno.  You've got to give the Republicans credit for being mighty
crafty politicians.

What I meant was that you had lost contact for some time. Or am I
misremembering?

I don't think so; she had cheap ideas about what to use instead of a
baking stone.

She suggested not using a spray bottle, but using lava rocks and
pouring boiling water over them. (Because the crust is formed in the
first 2-4 minutes, and that's when you need the steam.)

Mold is a HUGE problem in Texas. At least one insurance company has
stopped writing homeowner's insurance because of mold claims. I've
noticed that in the past year that food molds much more quickly than I
would have expected--the spores are just in the air.

Yes. But I think that Evelyn means that time of death couldn't be
determined. Like if they died in a fire or crash within seconds of each

I'd do this, except I put dirty clothes in the basket (and do laundry

Because leaving the hangers in the closet doesn't work for me, and
I've been putting hangers on the loveseat in the living room, which

I also wonder why they are accepting early.

And it's 'casus belli', 'occasion of war'. It's related to case, not
cause, which would be causa. [I was sure it was casus belli, but I

I think we frequently put dirty laundry on top of the hangers.

    I don't know about other states but here if you shoot a pregnant woman in
the womb and kill the unborn child you're charged with first-degree murder.

Perhaps it is good for people who have no other outside contact that

    Don't worry, alyce.  This will all be explained by the instructors at
the re-education camp.  The black helicopter will stop by for you on Monday.

You can't achieve an "ambiguous first count" with any of this.
If a whole election happens to hang on a court decision, maybe
all these are advantages.

With current unemployment rates lower than what many economists used to
think of as the non-inflation-accelerating rate of unemployment, and the
labor force participation rates for women at historic highs?  There are
Detroiters with long memories, and Mahoning Valley residents with
similarly long memories, and Texas oil patch residents with nearly as long
memories, who would think of economic conditions today as good times.

The parallel is wrong.  Anybody remember where the Dow was when Alan
Greenspan made his "irrational exuberance" speech?  For the record, it was
a little lower than it currently is.  Although war will divert resources
from other uses, which is not the same thing as re-igniting the economy,
its successful completion will reduce the uncertainty about
Islamo-fascists with their delightful tendency to kill themselves and take
others with them.

As far as the Donks, they don't know either.  As far as the deficits:
borrowing to provide for future production, which is what prosecuting a
war is, is different from borrowing to provide for current consumption,
which is what the Donks were doing.  There is much to criticize the Pachs
for, but at least their vision is clear: beat the Islamofascists and let
people keep more of the fruits of their efforts.

I currently have my eye on a spot in the master bath. Unfortunately,
there's a rug in there, the same carpeting that I have throughout the
house, and there's a spot where water from the bath splashes when I
get too involved in my whalish scenarios.

But perhaps that's TMI...:)

In fact, it has two pockets.  The towel loop is about at the level of the
top of the right-side pocket.

Suddenly I am unable to delete messages with the Delete at the top of
the screen, and only can do it with the delete key on the keyboard. This
is totally silly and awkward for me. I have rebooted. It began when I
tried to delete a message from Doris ("Blech"), which hung everything up
and I had to controlaltdelete. Then her message kept hanging there and I
couldn't delete anything following it either (with the screen delete).
So, finally, I read all the messages and then deleted en masse with the
keyboard delete. But what could be causing that, does anyone know?

When my step father was sick he used the scooters at the grocery store. He
preferred Stop & Shop over Shaw's. Stop & Shop had you sign up for a key
which you could take home with you. That way when you arrived at the store
you just hopped on an available one. At Shaw's you had to ask for the keys.

I still say that it would be whoever they specify in their will(s). I
understand that the co-tenant gets both halves if one dies. But I don't
understand how that negates the validity of a will if they both die.

Give them away or get a bigger closet.

In about twenty years, when Alan is sitting there fondling his toy pistol
(the only one the administration will allow him to have) and JMW's studies
of the constitution are of academic interest only, historians will probably
be referring to 9/11 as the American equivalent of the Reichstag fire.

Sounds like a name I'd hear at the dyke bar on Thursday night (that's if I
actually went to the dyke bar on Thursday nights). It would be the name of
a chick dressed in a gas station attendant shirt and she'd most likely have
shaved her head.

One reason I don't leave them in the closet is because I use plastic
hangers--they take up room whether they have clothes on them or not.
And I don't have extra space on most of the rods I use.

That's about the size of some of the Super Walmarts I've seen. I'm not
sure exactly what they are doing to my closest Walmart here--I know
that it's going to be a Super Walmart, but I'm not sure if they are
building a new building or just making an addition. Either way, it's
going to be at least as big as a city block.

Come to think of it, the downtown Whole Foods (flagship store) take up
a whole block.

Newsday http://tinyurl.com/2nyq says "In a sign that Hussein would
ultimately acquiesce, his eldest son, Uday, urged parliament to
approve the resolution and demand that Arab experts be added to the
inspection teams....  Hussein often refers issues to parliament so he
can claim that his decisions are based on the will of the Iraqi
people. In this case, analysts say, Hussein could be trying to signal
that the resolution is an affront to Iraqi dignity, and that he would
accept it with great reluctance, even going against the wishes of his
people.

Hussein also could be leaving himself an excuse to withdraw support
for the UN inspectors sometime in the future."

The last sounds like what he's done before.

What's your problem?  If you didn't need them right away, and
then they were under the dirty laundry, they'd be right there to
hang it up after it had been washed.  I never said it was right,
it was just what got done.  geez.

I was just teasing. For one thing, the hangers don't fit flat, so I
wouldn't get a whole load of clothes into the basket, which sort of
defeats the purpose.

I've never understood the whole hamper thing. Don't clothes get smelly
when they are closed up?

I won't say that, but I will point out that there were many reports last
week of strange results, such as a person in Florida trying three times
to vote Democratic, but each time the vote reverted to Republican before
she pushed the final button. Stuff like that. Maybe pure coincidence.
Maybe the same thing happened in reverse and I just didn't hear of it?

There is language in our will that defines what "at the same time" will
mean.  And it doesn't mean at the exact same moment.  If we were hurt in
the same car accident but died a few days apart, that would count as "at
the same time."

She was fast. She just thrust the meal into my hand and ran off. Not
unfriendly, but very hurried. I was told by the manager lady that they
don't want to stay and chat.
You get a hot meal Monday-Friday, and two frozen meals on Friday for the
weekend.

My brain immediately thought of Lisa Alfieri first! But actually, I
think this is very sweet, given all that you've been through.

I keep meaning to tell you, the King Arthur woman gave the Hearth Kit
oven inserts (http://www.hearthkit.com/) a very positive review. She
said that she was hoping to review them negatively (who needs to spend
more money?), but she couldn't.

LOL.

Can you smell the mold and mildew a lot in different places?  Not your
place but other homes or stores?  We had it growing one year and had to
attack with clorox.  What a pain.

I don't understand why'you asked this hanger question so far you've either
disagreed with everything people have said or you've mocked them for their
ways.

You're intelligent, you can figure this out yourself and if you can't at
least be considerate of people's suggestions.

I'm finding this more confusing by the minute.  I also use plastic
hangers for the most part, and I understand that they take up slightly
more rod space than metal hangers do.  But if the garment was hanging
there on that hanger before being washed, then surely there's room for
the hanger to stay there.  Like how was the garment there if there was
no room for a hanger?

They were also 40-50+ years ago.

When I learned about these wars in school the impact they had on the
economy was never talked about. They were studied as examples of times when
the American public didn't understand why we were at war and really didn't
support it. I think that's what most people think about when they are
mentioned regardless of whether they were alive when they happened.

I clearly remember my stepfather, who was enlisted in the Navy during the
Korean War, say at the time of Desert Storm that it would be good for the
economy. Many people thought that too.

We were going through a tough time then as well. I don't remember being
quite as bad as it is now but, that's my own personal memory and not based
on any facts I've looked up.

>WW II did.

Yes, and it's the major war that's talked about in the history of the
United States. What I learned about WW II, in a nut shell, was that it
managed to topple Hitler, detonate the atomic bomb and save the US economy.
Oh and it also created the cold war.

>The circumstances were entirely different.

Yes, I agree, the circumstances are very different but consider your
audience. This list is comprised of academics. A group of people who look
at things more in depth.

Outside of this group the McVersion of current events is being fed to the
public. A lot of parallels are being drawn between today's stock market and
the depression era stock market. And a lot of people still hang on to the
idea that war will re-ignite the economy.

The reason it wasn't brought up is because I think the Democratic Party was
a complete and total mess this time around. They had absolutely no
organization or direction. I have no idea what platform they were running
on (partially because I like in MA and John Kerry ran un-opposed). I still
can't tell you, even after their defeat, what they were trying to accomplish.

Personally I think if the democrats wanted to win they would have used the
possibility of war to scare the shit out of the voting public. I expected
them to take this bent.

Re: Government spending. It is the dirty little secret a lot of people
don't seem to be aware of at the moment. Just recently my company decided
to stop targeting major software companies and large financial institutions
in favor of government agencies because they are the one group who's
spending money without a lot of trepidation.

So why aren't people more aware of what the government is spending money
on? Because they're worried about their wallets and they aren't paying
attention. They're more distracted by the numbers the stock market is
posting than where the government is spending money. Besides, everyone
knows the Republicans don't spend money, right?

>alyce

So before I end I want to put a disclaimer on this.. I realize this email
is full of holes. There's lots of room for discussion and debate. Feel free
to embark on it too. If I have the time I'll even respond. If I don't,
enjoy anyway.

Our Wmart is probably the size of a city block.  But it has more than
just food.  Then again, just the food part is about as big as some
blocks I've seen.  And yes -- there's lots of food.  But it feeds people
of more than one county.  The parking lot on a weekend is full of
out-of-county cars, and the store is full of strangers.  Although I like
the prices, I do miss the old days of knowing almost everybody I saw
when I went grocery shopping.

You know I really have turned into a small-town person even though I
grew up in a city.  Certain things about small-town life <grab> me.
This afternoon when I was on my way from campus to the nursing home, I
saw a fire engine and found tears running down my cheeks, perhaps
encouraged by its being the last part of the 1812 Overture on my car
radio.  What caused the tears was what I knew about a Starkville fireman
who was killed a week or so ago in a poolroom fight while on a fishing
trip in Louisiana.  Newspaper accounts etc. made it clear that this man
was truly loved by many and that he wasn't a poolroom-fighter type at
all -- it was just one of those horrible situations when somebody dies
while doing something out of character.  Actually, I remembered him.  I
remembered standing in front of a neighbor's house in my old
neighborhood when a tree had fallen on power lines and he'd called the
fire dept to check on the safety.  This man who died in Louisiana was
there talking to us in front of John's house.  Anyway, what made me cry
today was something I had cried over when reading about it in the
newspaper.  They sent a Starkville fire engine to Louisiana to bring his
body back, led by a highway patrol car.  When they got to the edge of
Starkville on the return, the police blocked off all of Highway 12, a
busy road through town, for the fire engine to move through to the
funeral home.  I didn't see this, but the newspaper account said that
the policepeople at every intersection of course had their hats off and
their hands over their hearts and that the random public in the area
when they realized what was happening stopped and put their hands over
their hearts and stood in quiet respect as "this young man was driven
one last time through his town."

I can't explain this.  Shouldn't have even tried.  And it's making me
cry again.

Probably one of the goals of the war is invigoration of the economy (along
with of course oil company profits, presumably the leading economic
indicator for the Administration).

Besides, with the Supremes picked by Republicans, Republicans in control of
the House and Senate, and Republicans owning the companies making the new
voting machines, do you *really* think President "as adjudicated, not
elected" Bush will have trouble winning the election?

Depends upon the legal set-up.
Google for Joint ownership vs

a real education.

Great move, alyce!   I have a friend in Wisconsin who volunteers a few
times a month to deliver meals.  One time she realized that the person she
was bringing meals to must be my cousin.  It was.  Was the person who
brought your meal friendly?  Will you do this seven days a week?

Usually, I wear L.L. Bean lightweight hiking boots and selections from my
vast wardrobe of shorts or jeans and sweatshirts. (Ties are not only
optional, but slightly ludicrous.)

No, Clyde, in about twenty years, historians will recognize 9/11 as the
catalyst for Americans getting rid of the fascists in their midst,
masquerading prior to that time as tolerant multiculturalists.

Oh, if you'd like to see one of those compassion fascists portrayed, I
have some comments about UT (Knoxville) provost Loren Crabtree at
http://coldspringshops.blogspot.com  Don't forget to follow the links,
there's much, much more there.

Are you being ironic in your choice of that metaphor?  I see it more as
what excuse will he be able to find to start the war he obviously is
chomping at the bits to start.  Then again, I had thought maybe his
major war-mongering was to affect the midterm elections and that it
would wane now.  I'm not sure what the voters will think two years from
now.  I guess much will depend on exactly what happens -- whether
Georgie will succeed in grabbing all the oil, how many body bags have
been shipped home, whether we'll all be dead, or what.

I still don't get it.  Hmmm.  Maybe it's that you always count on having
some of your hanging clothes in the dirty-clothes basket, thus freeing
up space.  Is that it?  But that doesn't make sense either.  Like right
after you wash clothes, aren't all your clothes clean?  What do you do
with them?  If your closets don't have enough space for empty hangers,
how can they accommodate clothed hangers?

Hey, you want a fun word game, go to
http://www.iwon.com and in their game
section play WhatWord.  Seems simple
til you get to higher levels, of course.
You can compare your score with others
around the country.  Highest I've been is
9th in the country one day.  Challenging
game and fun.

I hope that Steve of the tacking sail can maybe explain this, because
it's something I've always found confusing.  I find personal finance
easy to understand but government finance way above my head.  War re the
economy is just one of the mysteries to me.

It's clearly not worth much, alas.  It really would be interesting to
see what our world would be like right now if the voters had won in
2000.  I'm not sure what the answer would be -- what things would be
like if Gore were Pres -- which is why I said it would be interesting to
see.

At best, it might mark the exchange of one group of fascists for
another. If "mulitculturalists" are fascists, they seem rather
impotent compared to the Bushofascists, who may well do more damage
than "multiculturalists" ever could to the very institutions you
think you're defending against them.

Consider this:  I am a mother with 12 kids
and I don't want to have any more ot them,
so I get myself  a little ammunition and direct
it right at the testicular source.  Does the law
go back this far?  I (the fictional mother of
12) would welcome the freedom of my
prison cell.

Hi, Steve!  I'm Pete.  I think anybody who blogs can't be all bad --
hopefully you do too.  Mine is at <http://www.istori.com/log/>.  (OTOH, I
think blogs put us on the wrong side of Tushar.)

This makes no sense to me whatsoever.  If/when the US removes Saddam and
occupies Iraq, or whatever it's going to do, how does that significantly
reduce the uncertainty about what the Islamo-fascists are going to do?

I don't put clothes that are likely to become smelly in my laundry
basket (even though it's open-air style -- as in an open basket sitting
in the floor of my bathroom closet).  Sweaty clothes I take off after
cutting the grass or towels I use to wipe up Spencer's vomit or stuff
like that goes straight into the washing machine, the lid of which I
leave open on such occasions since I don't like the idea of potential
stinks even there.

But hey -- you know what they say about people in the northern half or
so of the continent...  That subject arose in my SLA class a couple of
days ago when we were talking about olfactory signals, and I asked a
student from Barcelona whether it was true that southern Europeans think
that northern Europeans <stink>.  She said that yes, that's a general
belief, but that she herself hadn't noticed it in traveling.

Not.  I've had no such problems with my Netscape 4.7.

Here it is a couple of minutes after 7:00, and I noticed that "Outbreak"
was coming on at 7:00.  I think I'm ready to be really, truly retired.
If I were truly retired, I might not have 100+ pieces of list mail still
ahead, plus various other stuff to do tonight.  And I would watch
"Outbreak."

I did, in a response to one of Lisa's comments.  There isn't much fiscal
stimulus in a war fought the hypermodern American way, as it does not
require mass mobilization of people the way World War II does.  There is
much benefit in providing a world where goods and people can move freely,
which President Clinton benefitted by during the years between our victory
in the Cold War and the death rattles of the Islamofascists.  There will
be much benefit for people all around the world in open trade and freedom
of movement between the United States, Russia, even the European Union,
and the constitutional republics in progress in Afghanistan and yet to
come in Iran (have you been following the student protests there?), Iraq,
Saudi Arabia, and Palestine.

Oh, and the voters did win in 2000.  Every Florida recount has the same
result, so don't bring that whinge around here any more.

Had Vice President Gore won the election (which by all logic he should
have) his foreign policy advisors would likely be counseling restraint,
and wait, wait, wait, wait (see Bill Sjostrom's
http://atlanticblog.blogspot.com during mid-October for some
commentary), and al-Qaeda wouldn't have to hire someone to impersonate
Osama bin Liner's voice, as he'd still be taunting that sanctimonious
wooden man from his villa in Qandahar.

    It is uncertain, and the number of people who wish us ill for
specious reasons are many, but remember what George Orwell said when you
say your "Now I lay me's" tonight:  "People sleep soundly in their beds
tonight because rough men stand ready to do violence in their behalf."

Peter,

Yes, I'll have a look.  I recommend that longtime words readers check out
my http://coldspringshops.blogspot.com as there are numerous Words-L
moments noted there, and my references to UCLA (motto: On! Wisconsin!)
have a Words-L connection.

As far as the next question goes, follow the money.  Once Saddam is out
of business, the blood money to 'splodeydopes in Israel dries up.  Once
the oilfields are back in production and the gains from trade go to
rebuilding a civilian economy in Iraq (rather than to building those
presidential palaces that will evaporate in the first five minutes of the
war), the House of Saud's oil revenues dry up.  That takes money out of
the hands of the Wahhabim (who have been engaging in religious imperialism
toward Islamic congregations from Sarajevo to Sumatra) and closes down the
seminaries that have been fomenting that unreformed Islamic worldview.
It's a lot harder to get people angry about grievances when their lives
improve (starting in Afghanistan, to be done domestically in Iran, to be
done by methods not yet determined in Iraq) and when the rabble rousers
are out of business.

Oh, and since this is an English language discussion list, why do people
insist on using the adjective "puritanical" with Wahhabism?  If memory
serves, the Puritans were reformers of the church, and they beheaded a
corrupt king.

Anyway, thanks for a good question, I welcome further comments.

>the House of Saud's oil revenues dry up

Although the rest follows perfectly logically, this is the part that's not
immediately obvious to me.

How does returning Iraq's oilfields to production, funding the rebuilding
of a civilian economy in Iraq dry up the House of Saud's oil
revenues?  Can't the Saudi's continue to generate oil revenues, just less
lucratively?

And even if they can't generate revenue, don't they have enough cash
reserves to unleash all kinds of holy terror as they go down?

Thanks for the analysis, and for being of such good cheer about it. :)

My washing machine has a door, not a lid, so keeping it open blocks
the path. I've discovered this by accident more than once.

Greenspan said something about the projected size of the Iraq war not
being larger than the Korean war, but that the economy is so much
larger that it would have less of an impact. (And evidently the Korean
War had a significant negative impact.)

Death rattles?! I think the fight has just been engaged.

Which brings me to my next Tim O'Brien quote: "As a first rule of
thumb, therefore, you can tell a true war story by its absolute and
uncompromising allegiance to obscenity and evil."

I really recommend "The Things They Carried". It's the most
passionate, moving, horrible thing I've read in a long time. His essay
on war stories is priceless.

It compares favorably with Band of Brothers, which is the acme of war
movies. (Haven't seen Saving Private Ryan.) It actually gives you a
framework for understand BoB--there was a lot in BoB that I didn't get
till I read this book.

It's also a very self-revealing book--O'Brien reveals things that are
generally held private, and I wish, on some level, I hadn't read.

Take a look at this apron I made. This is the
female version.  Thinking of making a male
version, and using the pair as a Xmas gift,
or selling them.  Just using up my endless
supply of fabric.

        You're high.  Mahoning Valley residents -- especially those

Point taken, Mike.  Tune in at http://instapundit.blogspot.com and
http://andrewsullivan.com and http://www.dynamist.com/scene.html and
http://www.reason.com

You'll see that some of the most belligerent hawks are also watching the
homeland security stuff very carefully.  Limited government is a wonderful
thing, and the war is providing libertarian thinkers with all kinds of
opportunities to spell out what enumerated and limited powers refers to.

Peter Kaminski raises some interesting points.

It's called competition.  The House of Saud is just about overdrawn
anyway, and their proven reserves are dwindling.  And if they did want to
finance some mayhem, with the Seventh Fleet to the east, and the Israelis
to the west, Riyadh delenda est.

By the way, check out Peter's weblog.  Nice readable design and a catholic
set of links.

No, you are correct.  We were not in contact for about 30 years.

That's basically what I do---preheat the oven and stone, spray the gemisch
with water, slide the loaves in, give another short spritz, and bake.

The economy was very bad during the Korean war and for a couple of years
afterward. It ended in 1953, but when I graduated in 1955, it was nearly
impossible for people in my class from Northwestern to find jobs in the
Chicago area. My first job was for $35 a week. Even allowing for
inflation over the years, you will see that this was fairly low. We all
had to stay living with our parents for a couple of years, instead of
stepping out boldly on our own.

This is the "war" we should be fighting directly anyway, I think.

Anyway, the mayhem would come not from Saudi Arabia directly, of course,
but from the Wahhabi already scattered to the winds around the world --
while the House of Saud plays innocent (e.g.,
<http://www.istori.com/log/archives/00000135.html>).

And while a jujitsu attack like that executed on 9-11 isn't free, neither
is it particularly expensive.  So I'm still left with the nagging doubt
that Islamo-fascist uncertainty may survive the end of the war much longer
than we'd like.

What do you put in your pockets? I have aprons with pockets and never
use the pockets?

Doris can make me an apron without pockets if she wants.:) I need a
good one.

The wide band of black Holstein fabric at
lap level is divided into two big pockets.  Should
I add more?

Ok, so I was going to watch just a little bit of "Outbreak" for old
time's sake.  But I kept not being able to stop watching it.  So here I
am with still way over 100 pieces of unread list mail, and it's time to
go to bed.  Will have to catch up tomorrow night.

Where *were* the dogs while Robbie and Sam were both gone, btw?

It looks kind of stiff.  What would be the difference between a male and
female version?

He needs really a lot of nudges. Free trade is but one. In this week
alone, and it's only Thursday, he has had wolves taken off the protected
species list, allowed more snowmobiles to pollute Yellowstone with noise
and fumes, and now will push for drilling in the Alaska Arctic Wildlife
Refuge yet again. Who knows what incursions on nature will come
tomorrow? And he is privatizing 200,000 Army jobs that now are held by
government employees to put more money in the hands of corporations.
These are not combat positions, but lawyers, clerks, accountants, etc.
He says (well actually Rumsfeld says) that it is to save money, but I am
hard put to believe it.

I think I've mentioned before that a *94-yr-old* friend of mine is a
meals-on-wheels deliverer, among many other civic and social
activities.  She also visits the sick and <elderly> -- most of the
elderly being young enough to be her children.  She's amazing.

        But you were implying that the Mahoning Valley is now
enjoying good times in relation.  It isn't.  The old timers
are still sitting around talking abuot when the mills come
back, and all the kids are still leaving.

Me too, except for some comment somewhere about how Dubya and his

Its successful completion???  What a good one!

It's fun to have Steve of the Tacky Sail back.  Wish I had more time

Thank you. I feel more like building up a private Tokelau dictionary in Excel right now.

I find that this process is often true for me when I write as well. I look at it as giving
the ideas a chance to work in a different part of my brain.  It's like setting the dough
in a warm place to rise before the kneading and shaping takes place. Doing other
things while that is happening is not only not procrastinating, but absolutely
necessary to completing the task well.

I like that.  This is what I had to do in the
years I wrote on assignment for Hallmark,
with deadlines.  An idea wouldn't jel if I
thought about it constantly.  Had to put
it in the oven to rise.

When I was teaching my short course in "Writing for Scientific
Publication," I said that there were two basic ways to write:  (1) Think
before you write and (2) Write before you think.  The first is apparently
how (with some variations), you, Espen, Paul, and I approach it.  The
second is helpful for some people, i.e., to get all of the
ideas/data/information onto the paper or the disk as quickly as
possible.  The difference is that in approach 2, the writer must be willing
to perform major surgery before anyone else sees the draft.

Very often when given short-fuse writing assignments in TVA, the first
thing I would do is go for a walk.

You Are a Suspect

WASHINGTON — If the Homeland Security Act is not amended before passage,
here is what will happen to you:


Every purchase you make with a credit card, every magazine subscription
you buy and medical prescription you fill, every Web site you visit and
e-mail you send or receive, every academic grade you receive, every bank
deposit you make, every trip you book and every event you attend — all
these transactions and communications will go into what the Defense
Department describes as "a virtual, centralized grand database."

As with everything, there are both negatives

I thought that he also increased the number of visitors allowed, not
just snowmobiles? (I could be wrong--I thought I heard this on the
radio in the car.)

I think I have done both of these. I think I do #1 if what I'm writing
is relatively short.

#2, though, involves either writing on paper, or opening up a file I
 won't keep, a scratch file, as it were. Sometimes I pretend it is the
 real file, sometimes I don't. This is also what I do when I get stuck.

I have NEVER zoned out when playing a game like that before. I
completely lost track of time and place. I'm staying away from this.

Yes, but the post office inspectors are collecting details on suspected
thieves, not everyone and certainly not little children, noting their
report card grades. Apples and oranges.

I guess I can't really relate to your fear.
They can collect all the information on me

Yes, you could be. Clinton signed an order that would have banned them
entirely by next winter. Bush's decision is to have no limits till
March, then limited, but they play with numbers, so that there can be
more in one place than another. ANd then they have rules about 80% of
snowmobilers have a guide, whatever that proves. It's all here:

Not now. But of course if someone decides that it is anti-government to
have used ebay, they will have you. Or, The Catcher in the Rye is
subversive, and you've read it, it says here on your dossier. The whole
point is that they are changing laws, collecting information, and I fear
that ex post facto doings are on the way. I do not trust the people in

>I haven't done anything wrong.

The concern is that even if you've done nothing wrong, when data is
collected (perhaps with errors), collated and then interpreted in a
different context, the result may be bad assumptions about you.

Excerpted from <http://www.privacyrights.org/ar/Privacy-IssuesList.htm>:

Privacy and civil liberties advocates are often asked, "what are you afraid
of; what do you have to hide; if you haven’t done anything wrong, what’s
there to worry about?" The sentiment behind these questions is that the
data being compiled is benign and is not going to harm us. But as law
professor Jeffrey Rosen points out in his 2000 book The Unwanted Gaze, you
are not your profile. Databases can contain errors. And data compiled from
disparate sources and from differing contexts can lead the user to arrive
at the wrong conclusions. (The Unwanted Gaze: The Destruction of Privacy in
America, by Jeffrey Rosen, Random House, 2000)

[W]hen intimate information is removed from its original context and
revealed to strangers, we are vulnerable to being misjudged on the basis of
our most embarrassing, and therefore most memorable, tastes and
preferences. (p.9)

He used the 1998 subpoena by prosecutor Kenneth Starr of Monica Lewinski’s
book purchases from a Washington, D.C., bookstore as an example of how
profiling can harm individuals. This occurred during the Clinton
administration sex scandal. Rosen states:

Privacy protects us from being misdefined and judged out of context in a
world of short attention spans, a world in which information can easily be
confused with knowledge. (p.8)

Here is another story to illustrate the potential harm of untrammeled data
collection and profiling.

In 1998 the Salt Lake Tribune reported that the supermarket chain Smith’s
Foods was subpoenaed by the U.S. Drug Enforcement Agency (DEA) for its
discount card data on several named suspects. Was the DEA looking for
high-volume purchases of non-prescription medicines that make up the
chemical formula for "speed," like Sudafed? No. They were interested in
finding out if these individuals had purchased a lot of plastic "baggies,"
the presumption being that if you’re manufacturing and selling "meth," you
will need plastic bags to package it in.

This story should alarm each of us. How many situations can we think of
where someone might buy many "baggies" – the parent who wraps school
lunches for a large family, the Girl Scout troop leader who makes
sandwiches for the girls’ outings, the jewelry maker who sells her
creations at weekend arts fairs. Yet, if law enforcement were to request
supermarket discount card data for "fishing trips," without court-ordered
warrants -- something far more likely in the post-9-11 era of weakened
checks and balances -- many individuals would be on the suspects list, most
if not all of whom would not be drug dealers.

Whether one has done anything wrong is not the issue. It's whether one
can be perceived to have done anything wrong. Remember Richard Jewell?
He hadn't done anything wrong.

Help me think of a slang word that means pretty much the opposite
now of what it meant in the '50s.  And can you think of any words
that have become obsolescent in the past forty or so years?  Words/terms
that would have been ordinary and unobscure to a typical college student
of 1960 or so but would be little known, if known at all, by a typical
college student of today?  "Slide rule" is a possibility, I guess.

The fear (anxiety might be a better term for now) is tied up with <who>
gets to determine whether or not you've done anything wrong as well as who
gets to define what is <wrong>.  Granted, various levels and branches of
government <and> various entities in the private sector have been
collecting information on us for perhaps longer than we think.  One safety
factor thusfar (for we civilians) is that the information/data bases have
been scattered, fragmented, and not widely shared.  With the passage of the
Homeland Security Act and the establishment of the MInistry of Internal
Security, that could change.  Although my guess is that the dreams of one
universal, integrated data base are a bit optimistic in the short run, it
could happen.  At that point, all of the cross-correlation and other games
could be played (under rules established by Heinrich er, John Ashcroft and
others of his ilk).  Then you have <real> profiling.

I haven't seen much discussion at the national level of any built-in
protections.  As for what might be unconstitutional, hell---this
administration has shown little interest in constitutional protections
except for Amendment 2 (and my guess is that that is simply a sop to pacify
people until the Ministry hits its stride).

And if you are reading this, Mr. DeLay, I don't much like the horse you
rode in on, either.

Hot damn! I have no idea how many points I got, but less than 200K.

        Well, there's always "bad," in the slang sense of "good," as
well as "radical" or "rad."  What about "jazzed" -- if something is jazzed
it is screwed up, messed up, kaput.  I don't know how long that usage has
been around.

Stories like this just say "databases" can be good. What databases,
how good, etc is left unstated.

Again I see the glass half full.  If my kids school was
rampant with drugs and the culprit could be found
because records showed he was a large purchaser
of plastic bags I'd be delighted.  If the record showed
I was also a large user of plastic bags because I use
them for my rummage sales, and if it put me on some
kind of list, I could be easily checked out and I don't
see the harm.

I don't remember now why he was chosen as a
suspect, but I don't think it was because of a
large government database.

Apart from you and Natalie, everyone has done hundreds of wrong
things. They--the morally dubious characters--are the ones who
live in fear.

It's refreshing to see trust in the power and accuracy of
databases, the "ease of checking out" innocents, the moral
rectitude of drug warriors etc. I hope I get it when I am
older and wiser.

You have Failed to Understand [tm]. If you are being hassled
because The Database Said So, will you have a beatific smile
on your face because they are hassling you for the wrong
reasons? That your soul is spotless and your actual privacy
remains protected? This amazes me as much as people who have

Actually, I'm hoping to be lost in the glut, not hassled at all.


It is all well and good when old, retired grandmas aren't worried
about being wrongfully profiled -- what have you got to
lose anyway?  You might get shunned at bingo.

However, if I got profiled because I bought all those
baggies at Schnucks, my job would be on the line.  Nobody
wants a suspected anything teaching school -- and let's face it,
I have a well recorded <interesting past> as far as the government
is concerned.  I've not done anything wrong, but others might
not see it that way.

This from a Canadian on my other favorite list:

Here in Canada, a new airport security measure has been instituted to
record every passenger, where
they are seated, how they paid for the ticket, where they went, when
they returned, who they might
have associated with on the plane.

This information is being shared among all government departments.

It was implemented as a so-called "counter terrorism" measure, but it is
being used for other
purposes. It was noted yesterday that since the system went into effect,
not one terrorist has been
caught, but Canadians have been nailed for tax offenses, have been
interrogated about why they made
two trips to Colombia in the last year (gotta be suspicious, cannot
possibly be because you have
family there or have business interests other than illegal drug
shipments), or how they paid for two
trips to Europe when Canada's tax sleuths know that you only make
$50,000 a year.

Except that the DEA often does not just "check you out." They break down

So you may be more conveniently checked out, USA PATRIOT Act Section 213
provides for "sneak and peek" search and seizure of any property or
material *before* notice is given:

(b) DELAY - With respect to the issuance of any warrant or court order
under this section, or any other rule of law, to search for and seize any
property or material that constitutes evidence of a criminal offense in
violation of the laws of the United States, any notice required, or that
may be required, to be given may be delayed if --

(1) the court finds reasonable cause to believe that providing immediate
notification of the execution of the warrant may have an adverse result (as
defined in section 2705);

(2) the warrant prohibits the seizure of any tangible property, any wire or
electronic communication (as defined in section 2510), or, except as
expressly provided in chapter 121, any stored wire or electronic
information, except where the court finds reasonable necessity for the
seizure; and

(3) the warrant provides for the giving of such notice within a reasonable
period of its execution, which period may thereafter be extended by the
court for good cause shown.

And sometimes it's "Sorry for your loss" to the relatives...

And they don't have to give back the stuff they confiscated as part of
RICO.

What about starch? Especially the starched petticoats or whatever you

A will still has to go through probate. If you want to avoid probate you
have to have a trust. A revokable trust is one kind I know of that will
make sure what you want goes to who you want.

Without a will or a trust the property goes to probate and is fair game for
either individual's closest of kin.

Mold can be a problem in New England basements. Which is where the washer
and dryer have been located in every place I've lived in with the exception

That's only because I've been incredibly active on the list these days.. oh
and because I think Bonnie has a crush on me! ;-)

I think it's great that Bonnie called our "our daughter"!

You asked what people did with their hangers. If you hadn't said why you
wanted to know then I would say fine, don't give a shit if people give you
advice. However you stated the reason you asked which prompted people to do
a little troubleshooting for you. You could be gracious even if the
response doesn't work for you. Especially since you haven't been able to
figure this out for a year.

Why do I need to be gracious when they were treating me like an idiot?
Whoever suggest that I put a rod under the cabinets never asked if
there was room for a rod. (There isn't; what was hanging would block
the dryer dials.) Give me some credit!

A year and seven months.

Did you learn that it was 40-50+ years ago?

Mold can be a big problem in lots of places. An example:


Hilton’s mold-repair
bill doubles to $40 million

The cost of replacing furniture
and making building reparations
boosts the price tag

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

By Tim Ruel
truel@starbulletin.com

The estimated cost to repair mold damage at Hilton Hawaiian Village
in Waikiki just keeps growing.

The $20 million tab previously disclosed by the resort's California-
based parent company will ultimately reach an estimated $40
million, in part because of the newly disclosed cost of replacing
furniture and making building improvements.

Hilton said it will cost $20 million to refurnish rooms in the
village's Kalia Tower, and to make improvements to the Kalia and
Lagoon towers, where unusual amounts of mold were reported earlier
this year.

Hilton, Waikiki's largest resort, started throwing away all the
furniture, draperies, carpeting and appliances in the Kalia Tower
guest rooms a couple months ago.

The estimated $20 million capital expense will come in addition to
$20 million in charges Hilton has taken against its earnings for
investigating and removing mold at Hilton Hawaiian Village, said
Kathy Shepard, spokeswoman for Hilton Hotels Corp. Hilton disclosed
the estimates yesterday in its most recent public financial
statement.

Hilton is seeking coverage under its property insurance policy for
the costs of remediation, as well as the cost of lost business, the
firm said.

Hilton closed all 453 guest rooms in the new $95-million Kalia
Tower in July and notified the public of excessive mold in the
rooms. The resort expects to reopen the Kalia Tower in the second
quarter of 2003. Hilton's time-share Lagoon Tower, where mold was
found in a public corridor, has remained open.

Hilton has applied for a $1 million city building permit for work
at Kalia Tower that includes a correction to the air-conditioning
system. Hilton has retained consulting firm Beall & Associates to
do the work.

A Beall representative declined comment yesterday.

Experts are still investigating the causes of the high humidity
that led to the Hilton mold.

I was thinking of the mimeograph just the other
day, remembering the gooey blue sheets we had
to type the master copy on, and how hard it was
to make corrections, and how unreliable were the
copies we made, and how quickly they blurred
and faded.  I am grateful every day for all the
wonderful things we have to work with today.

 and the smell of the mimeograph ink.  My dad always typed the stencils and ran the

I remember the smell and feel of the paper, still moist and fragrant when

        I used the mimeograph machine to type quizzes for my students when
I was a grad student.  This was in the early 1990s.  We students were
allowed to use the Xerox machine, but only if we paid for it out of our
own pockets.  Teaching just didn't get the budget that research did in the
physics department at Iowa State.

Lots of lawyers will put a clause into a will that says, "If so-and-so and
I die in such a manner that the order of our deaths can not be determined,
so-and-so shall be deemed to have pre-deceased me" or "to have survived me"
... in which case, either my will or so-and-so's will would be followed
with respect to the distribution of property.

Alternatively, of course, some wills specify that somebody has to survive
the testator for 30 days for the bequest to be valid.

Pedant's note: the moist fragrant copies are hectograph (usually purple,
other colors such as green or red were possible).  Mimeograph is printer's
ink to ordinary paper.

Wrong image ... Unless you also include in it the temptation
to call the first thing you fish out the "needle". I for one
have seen a lot of things gain spurious authority because they
came from a database.

Peter raises a good point below.  It is, however, a bit late in the day to
raise it, as policy makers have essentially trumped privacy advocates
with, inter alia, metal detectors at the airports and schools,
drunk-driving checkpoints on the roads, census questions whose relevance
to enumeration and apportionment escapes me, and lifestyle audits by the
Internal Revenue Service.

I would commend all concerned to read http://volokh.blogspot.com,
http://www.instapundit.com, and http://andrewsullivan.com for today.

And note: it is quite possible to oppose much of homeland 'security' and
support regime change in Iraq.

The kids have someplace to go to now.  That wasn't the case 20 years ago.
The tales of Rust Belt residents migrating to Texas and other southern
places in quest of opportunities that weren't there were legion back then.

The mills, by the way, won't come back.  That's one of my pet Corporate
Stupidity stories.  Some people at Nucor Steel were looking into ways of
recycling scrap steel into an 1 1/2" thick slab.  Bethlehem's engineers
looked into the project, and wrote a 1 1/2" thick report (this predates
power point) replete with executive summaries and bullet points giving all
the reasons that recycling wouldn't work.  Meanwhile, Nucor put first one,
now four such machines into operation, elsewhere.

Good questions, Natalie, relatively easily answered.

(irrational exuberance)

> I thought his point was about its upward gallop.  Iow, isn't the
> direction significant, not just the numbers?

Both.  In equilibrium, stocks trade at about 15 times permanent earnings.
At 1996, the price-earnings ratio was above 15 and climbing.  Currently,
the price-earnings ratio is close to 15 on average.  And by conventional
standards, (a 20 percent increase in average stock prices) we have been in
a bull market since mid-summer.  There is grist for lots of doctoral
dissertations yet to be written over whether deregulation, global free
trade, the end of Communism, and the pending end of Islamofascism will
mean a price-earnings ratio higher than 15 will be the new equilibrium.

(Successful completion)

> Its successful completion???  What a good one!

Bear in mind something General Eisenhower said at the end of the European
Campaign.  (The exact quote is toward the end of Stephen Ambrose's Citizen
Soldiers).  The essence of Eisenhower's observation was that the campaign
would be a success if in fifty years, the Germans had a stable, prosperous
democracy.  There was a lot of work to make that happen, including the
Marshall Plan, Berlin Airlift, "Ich bin ein Berliner," and "Mr. Gorbachev,
tear down this wall!"  Successful completion will mean a lot of work this
time, and it would help if our diplomats paid closer attention to the
uprising in Iran.

I wasn't talking about recounts or who legally won the election.  I was
referring simply to how many people voted for which candidate.

I just was going to mention this. I drew all the illustrations for a
paper on Victorian furniture used in scenery design and duplicated them

sheets with a picture of something, an apple, for instance, with A _ _ _
_ under it to fill in. I can see those things now.

That's kind of what I was thinking re the baggies example.  With all the
girl scout leaders, jewelry makers, etc. clogging the baggie reports,
the investigators would probably give up pretty quickly.

Hmm.  I wonder whether there's a relationship between jazzed as screwed
up and the earlier jazzing as in "We so cool ... We jazz June."

Thanks for the suggestions.  The reason I asked the question was that a
VP who is working on a graduation speech called me in search of word
suggestions for what I gather is just a tiny aside in his speech.  He
said that he's going to mention something about the many changes that
have occurred since he graduated from college in '61 -- he named a few
of them to me and said that he was going to throw in that the English
language has changed and wanted to give some examples of words that have
appeared and words that have vanished.  The appeared part is easy.  I
gave him a bunch of those.  I doubt that any words have totally vanished
since '61, however.  So I started trying to think of some that have
become obsolescent, not totally obsolete.  Then I started thinking about
how his purpose might be served just as well by things like slang terms
that have reversed meaning.  I also thought about car-talk stuff as a
possibility -- something like "While teenaged boys in the '50s talked
about 'twin pipes' (??), teenaged boys now talk about _?_ [some
appropriately <modern> car thing]."

Supposedly he was turned in by a highly disliked man who was our State
Commissioner of Higher Ed (or whatever the title is) for a while but was
gotten rid of here and went to become Pres of a tiny college in the
hills of northern Georgia.  Jewell worked there, iirc, and this not-nice
man was somehow involved in suggesting that he might have been guilty.
I don't remember the details now (obviously).

Right.  That's how vocabulary loss often works.  When the need for the
term declines or vanishes, so does the term.

I'm not sure about this one.  Is the word "starch" vanishing (in the
sense of clothes, not food)?  I've never been a user of starch with
clothes, except the petticoat years, so I'm not sure.  Do people in
general no longer use starch?

What I started thinking when I wrote the above last night is that maybe
that was revealed in the real movie and I've forgotten the answer --
something that might have been cut out of the tv version with
commercials.  I did see the part last night where Sam asked Robbie what
she had done with the dogs and she gave a joking answer.

I had forgotten that the dog-bathing scene was so early in the movie.
It was ending just as I turned it on last night.  I'm glad I didn't miss
it totally!  I'm trying to remember now what the questions were that we
debated re Casey's cord and suit.  I saw that part clearly last night
but couldn't remember what the questions were.

Where is Brad?  He would remember.

I had thought a little while ago when mentioning carbon paper that
something could be said about the movement from mimeograph to ditto to
xerox.

Ah so.  It seems odd to think that you were still a student when it
happened, but I guess it shouldn't seem odd.  That was still the
relatively early days of Words-L, and you were a student in your early
days here.

Are you ever going to explain why a naked hanger takes up more rod space

Maybe we've been through so many scares we
have become blase.   1984 came and went, you
know.  I read that book when it first came out,
and I was full of fears then.  Maybe Orwell should
have named it 2004, or maybe by the time everything
is in place it will be 2084.

Also, a mother's fears are for her children.  Once
they are raised she doesn't have many fears for
herself.

But I don't play bingo.  My involvement with life
goes a bit deeper than that.

Do you remember thinking how magic it was when we moved up to ditto
machines?  The darker purple that stayed on fingernails was replaced
with lighter purple.  And no more handles to crank!  And then at some
point some kind of really high-tech correction strips came along for
dittoing  -- can't remember now exactly how they worked -- something
you'd stick over or under the error and retype.

They are too busy tracking growlights to worry about baggies.

Oh yes!

This conversation in general (not specifically about copying) makes me
think about how much easier it must be to be a student these days,
especially how much easier to be a grad student.  Remember how long it
took to type papers in the olden days?  Most of the time devoted to
writing a paper was eaten up with the typing process.  I'm sure that
current PhD students wouldn't even know what I was talking about if I
told them that I'd done it all on a manual typewriter until splurging on
an electric typewriter for writing the final draft of my dissertation.

And then there was the craziness of footnotes, which turned to endnotes
around the time it was no longer as hard to handle footnotes.  Remind me
to give my anti-endnote harangue when I come back.  I've gotta log off
now.

    I both iron *and* starch, but then I'm not "people in general".  You

Someday I want to get into the discussion of blogs here.  Something
about having a blog has always struck me as -- what? -- a bit bumptious?

I loved my "Regime Change Begins At Home. Vote!" banner.  Wish it had
helped.  I'm feeling pretty good, though, about the direction the
Democrats seem to be taking -- not so much mealy-mouthedness as has been
the case since 9/11.  I am happy about Pelosi, and I'm happy that
Daschle is questioning Dubya's success in the <War on Terror>.

Do you really mean mimeograph?  Not ditto?  In my teaching career the
change from mimeograph to ditto occurred in the late '60s.

I can just envision future iterations of Family Tree Maker with lots of
fields, in case an ancestor submitted the long form.  The forms have
gotten shorter and longer in the past (compare the 1850 and 1860 to the
1880 and 1910).  But the best thing to do to help future genealogists is
to keep good records on the important stuff now, and entrust them to
younger family members with an interest in the stuff

OK, I'm bumptious.  Deal with it.

Actually, regime change has begun at home.  And there's something wrong
with this picture ... moderate, supported the war, African ancestors, Rep.
Ford, not being put forth, so that San Francisco Democrat and Silent
Generation relic, Rep. Pelosi can.  (nb: Silent Generation = people too
young to have fought WWII and too old to have been drafted for Vietnam.
Collectively inherited the best country in the world, and the best job
prospects ever, and made a mess of their inheritance).

Colin Powell's Eyebrows

November 10, 2002
By THOMAS L. FRIEDMAN

This column is about the foreign policy fallout from the
elections. But first, a story. I was recently interviewing
a senior European diplomat when he began complaining about
the Bush team's imbalanced Mideast policy, which involves
telling the truth to Palestinians - that they need a new
leader - but not telling the truth to Israel - that it
needs to find a secure way to get out of the settlements.
He became so passionate that I couldn't resist asking:
"What does Colin Powell say when you tell him this?" The
diplomat then did an imitation of Mr. Powell raising his
eyebrows as if to say, " `You know what I believe, and you
know I can't do anything about it with the crazies in this
administration.' "

I've been thinking a lot about Colin Powell's eyebrows this
week. Let's be blunt: the Democratic Party as a force for
shaping U.S. foreign policy is out of business, until that
party undergoes regime change. That's not healthy. You
can't have a sound foreign policy without an intelligent
domestic opposition keeping people honest.

With the Dems out of business, the real opposition party on
foreign policy will now be the "De Facto Democrats": Colin
Powell, John McCain and the British prime minister, Tony
Blair. They are the only voices that, if raised in
opposition to any Bush foreign policy initiative, could
restrain the president and sway the public. That is not
true of any Democrat today.

What the last election showed us is what a deep trauma of
vulnerability 9/11 etched on the American psyche. "While
the Democrats failed to articulate a broad range of policy
differences with President Bush," said David Makovsky of
the Washington Institute, "their key failure was their
inability to persuade Americans - in their guts - that they
were prepared to deal with the world as it really is now."
That is a world full of terrorists and rogue regimes
dedicated to our destruction and not responsive to therapy
or social work.

Where the Bush hard-liners are out of step is that many
people here and abroad don't believe these guys really want
to invest in making the world a different place, or that
they have any imagination or inspiration to do so. The
reason the De Facto Democrats are so important, and have a
future, is that people trust that they see the world as it
is - but also aspire to make it a better place. That is
where the soul of America is.

Mr. Powell and Mr. Blair pushed Mr. Bush to go through the
U.N. before invading Iraq. The hard-liners were angry about
that because they fear the inspectors won't find anything
and then Iraq will be off the hook. Cool it. Saddam is as
likely to fully comply with the U.N. as Mike Tyson is to
embrace anger management, and by framing the issue in the
U.N., Mr. Bush ensured much greater public support for any
war. It was good advice by the De Facto Democrats, and more
will be needed.

Consider the Predator drone that last week fired a rocket
and wiped out a key Al Qaeda cell in Yemen. I'm glad we did
that. Sometimes it's the only way justice gets done.
Because what you have today is the Arab street and the Arab
basement. Predators are very necessary for wiping out the
hard-core terrorists who have left the street and gone into
the basement, where they are beyond diplomacy and committed
to violence. But if you don't try to seal the door between
the street and the basement - with diplomacy - what happens
is that as soon as you kill four guys in the basement, four
more come down from the street and take their place.

Mr. Powell has always understood, better than the Bush
hard-liners (who say, Forget about streets, treaties and
institutions - foreign policy is about asserting U.S.
power) that Predators are necessary, but not sufficient.
You don't have to cater to the Arab street, or the European
street or the Chechen street, but if you don't listen to
their legitimate aspirations, you end up refilling the
basements with more dangerous characters. If the only
outstretched American hand the world sees is the Predator
drone, we're in trouble.

This is where the real fight in America is going to be:
between those who just want to deal with the world as it
is, and those who want to deal with the world as it is -
but also really invest in changing it. Until Democrats
convince the public that they know how the world really is,
we will have to rely on De Facto Democrats to fight this
fight. But that means Mr. Powell must step it up. If he and
his allies are going to prevail, they are going to have to
raise more than just their eyebrows.

        Not at all.  It's about what you've got to lose, not how old
you are.

        Couldn't find anything about a silent generation.  Your ed.
observations are mildly humorous.

        I noticed improved test scores today by bringing in a couple

        Hmm, they did for a short while. I'm not sure why migration
is to south, but I have noticed that St. Louis has a large
number of people who have moved here from Ohio.

Of course they won't.  Any moron knows that.  The mills have
rusted into a fine powder and the blast furnaces have been
blasted to rubble.  But you wouldn't know that to talk to
the old timers.  I honestly think nothing will change there
until they all die off (except their retirement checks are
supporting the local economy).

The Mahoning Valley actually has a lot of specialty steel,
heat treatment, and alumnimum stuff going on, but nothing
can compare to that long stretch of blast furnaces along the
river between Struthers and Campbell.

The first time my daughter saw an iron at her grandmother's house she asked
what it was. I think she was 10.

Seems to me you have to be doing a little hairsplitting to make
this work for Pelosi. As a woman, she was, of course, in no danger
of being drafted, but more than a few people her age fought in
Vietnam. If they volunteered rather than being drafted--or dodging
the draft--do they escape being in the "Silent Generation"? Are
some in her age cohort members of that generation while others
aren't? If that's so, is "generation" the right word?

Good question, Mike.

It's not really hairsplitting.  At 63, she's born in 1939.  That is the
1960 draft class, maybe a few people from that class went to Vietnam, but
the buildup was after their hitches were over.

If you want to find out more about how this generation stuff works, go to
http://www.fourthturning.com

It's also the case that although all people of a given age range are of an
identifiable generation (marketers and some demographers work that way)
not all people of that age range act or think alike.  For example, David
Horowitz's "Destructive Generation" actually refers to younger Silents and
older Boomers who bought into Left arguments.

I don't have any problem understanding what you mean by "successful
completion" in the sense of rebuilding/restructuring.  Your Eisenhower
reference says "at the end of the European campaign."  What I'm curious
about is your seeming confidence that we will reach a decisive and
to-our-advantage end of the grab-the-oil campaign.

Hmm.  Should I look around for cameras at the next Starkville Community
Theatre production?  Or symphony performance?  (I do have a season
ticket to the SCT.  Wonder whether there are records.  The sympohony
concerts are free.)

But there wasn't really a hole.  His cord got caught because he was very
tired and thus not alert to concerns like catching his cord on
something, and the hung cord pulled the back of his pants off far enough
for the ebola to have zoomed into the <butt> area.

Hmm.  So you do move clothes from closet to closet or rod to rod in a

I'm happy to hear this.  It makes me feel less mutant for ironing only
once every couple of months or so.  I thought <normal> people ironed
frequently (or hired other people to do it for them).

Am I the only one who has noticed that Rita has some kind of <age>
thing?  I can't name the specifics of when I've noticed it in her
postings in the past, but I have noticed it and have found it somehow
amusing -- as if she thinks she'll never hit forty, much less sixty.  It
has struck me as a bit odd, though, for somebody who is overall as wise
and withit as I think Rita is overall.

That would place me in the Silent Generation. Although we were too old
for Vietnam, we were not too old for Korea. My fiance was there for two
years while I was in college.
I never have understood why we were called the Silent Generation. As I
recall, we were not silent then and are not silent now.

Have milkmen disappeared everywhere in the US?  (They have as far as my
personal experience goes, but I'm thinking now about how they still
exist in Japan.)  And what about truant officers?  Does truancy no
longer exist as a <crime>?  I'm trying to think what a file clerk is.
It sounds familiar somehow, but I'm coming up blank in associating that
title with an activity.  And what is a clipping service??  I would
assume that to be like a dog groomer.

Co-ed is a thought.  It doesn't really mean anything at all now, does
it?  I remember when it meant female student.  Then it moved to
adjectival use referring to the mix in a dorm.  I guess it has vanished
totally now.  Is there a current term that would be equivalent with
BMOC?  That's a good possibility.  Thanks for these suggestions.

Well, Steve and others of his cohort have to find somebody to blame--after

I hate generalitzations of entire generations like this. See my post of
yesterday. Jobs were scarce and ill-paid where I was. Silent generation
is derogatory, which bugs me. It was not my generation that began
Vietnam. Although we were too young to fight WW II in the trenches, we
fought it at home. I just was thinking last night of writing about how
much children of the early '40s participated in the war effort, and
wondering who would care to know. I may put it on my web page. And that
leads me to say that there should be a permanent resting place for such
things. Like if I die and my page goes down, such a memoir should not
disappear.

Uh. No. The 40-50 years was a refernce to the Koren War and Vietnam
which I seperated in the original post.

Natalie was asking about Desert Storm which was 10+ years ago.

I know this for sure 'cause I just received a letter from URI suggesting
I make a $100 contribution to the school on the 10th anniversary of my
graduation. Just for reminding me that it was 10 years ago I'm not
sending them anything.

        I do have an age thing.  However, I don't think it is the
same age thing you're talking about.  I fully expect to hit
40 in oh, 5 1/2 years (won't be long now!).  And I'm
*terribly* old compared to most of my colleages at UMSL.
Ancient according to my students.

        I'll try to think about and articulate my <age thing>, but
off the top of my head, it has more to do with observing and
making fun of the characteristics of being a certain age
than being superior at whatever age it is I happen to be at
the time I'm making observations.  I like being in my 30's,
but it isnt' superior to being in my 20's.  I like that age,
too.  Being a teenager just sucks, though.

        BTW, my university supervisor is publishing a pretty
interesting paper about how she's implemented a listserv for
student teachers and how it functions as a support
mechanism.  I can't remember what your exact interest in
online communication is specifically, but I thought of you
when I read it.

That's fine if there are younger family members with an interest in the
stuff.  Presumably their interest might lead them to communicate with
lateral branches, etc.  But not everybody has younger family members
with an interest in the stuff.

No, I'm not sure whether that's the right word.  That's why I added a
question mark.  And I see no particular reason why I should be commanded
to <deal with it>.  It's easy enough to <deal with> blogs, of course, in
that it's easy enough to ignore their existence.

Huh?  Does "moderate, supported the war, African ancestors"
automatically mean one is <right>?  And is everybody who happened to
have been born in the <Silent Generation> years automatically <wrong>?

Huh? I thought these were one-piece suits and the suit was ripped by
the respirator hose. Why would the respirator hose be attached to
pants? (Unless he breathes through his butt, but that would be
unusual.)

http://vpr.tamu.edu/forms/Appendix_B4.pdf says "appropriate
combinations of personal protective equipment", but doesn't specify
one or two piece. It says "Protetcive laboratory clothing such as
solid-front or wrap-around gowns, scrub suits, or coveralls must be
worn in, and not worn outside, the laboratory."

I never use UPS for this reason. In truth, I was afraid that you'd have
to go to the post office to pick this up. That is why I delayed, looking
for a smaller box that I thought might fit into the conventional
mailbox. Never did find one, so went for broke in the end.

Of course not! The fact that I've been struggling with it for so long

        Prices around here have been remarkably steady for months now.

I iron when absolutely necessary. But starch? No. My clothes go to the
dry cleansers.

My mother didn't starch either. She had the same can of starch spray for
as long as I can remember. My grandmother used it and I remember
watching her iron her jeans with it. As much as I looked up to her,
that's one thing I didn't want to emulate.

Yep.  I think that's quite obvious.  As I've said before, whichever
party had been in the White House on 9/11/01 would be reaping political
bounty for years to come.

Yep.  I shudder at the thought of what would be happening without the
restraining voices of people like CP in Dubya's ear.

With perfect timing also.

Interesting article, Alan.  I would say more on it, but I've really
gotta log off.  Just found out I'm having company arriving tomorrow.
And I've got tons of other crappola to think about.  Can't concentrate
very well on matters like The World, which is just as well, I guess,
since I feel helpless in the downward spiral anyway.

More good questions from Natalie

(pending end of Islamofascism)

> Will you explain to us why you think that end is pending?

As an ideology, it has failed to deliver anything to the people.  I really
wish our government and our press would pay more attention to the unrest
in Iran, unless there's something secret going on.

(securing the peace)

It is not a grab-the-oil campaign.  Success will be constitutional
republics in Palestine, Saudi, Iraq, Iran, and Afghanistan.  Find the
weblog run by Little Green Footballs and do some research.

Girls, for the most part.  One even asked me if I come around often ;)
But I mean no disrespect by that.  Does Words-L have Bill Sjostrom's
traffic, let alone InstaPundit's?  Good night, back on the weekend.

Certainly not, because the fifty-and-sixty somethings grabbed most of the
plum jobs during an era of rapid economic growth and relatively few
competitors.  Those of us from the high-birthrate years had a lot more
competition.  Fortunately, we're up to it.  SHK

But joint tenancy has nothing to do with a will (except for the
last surviving owner, who can leave the property to anyone
he chooses).  I wonder if a judge can rule in this case that the
joint tenancy become a tenancy in common, in which Fred's
share goes to his next-of-kin and Barney's goes to his.

I'm enjoying this class, especially the property law part.  I
wish we could study cases, but we're trying to cram too
much into one course.

FWIW, I enjoy Rita's "age thing". Refreshing change from

JMW my soul bruthuh! I iron *all* my clothes and starch the odd
shirt. My clothes are mostly all cotton and I can't imagine not ironing

shake off this one habit. (Thanks, mom)

And just earlier tonight I was talking to someone about putting together an
exhibit for a convention that'll include mimeograph machines, some wax

recollection of getting high off the fumes....)

So why did footnotes turn into endnotes?  When it first started
happening, I assumed that endnotes were something to be used in a
manuscript going to a printer since the printed pages wouldn't be the
same as the typed pages -- iow, the endnotes could become footnotes when
being printed.  They of course made life much easier for people writing
such manuscripts and for students writing papers.  I well remember
decisions like what to do at the bottom of a particular page -- you
still had space for one more line but adding that line would mean
needing another footnote, which you wouldn't have room for on that page.

What I don't understand is why footnotes pretty much went away, to be
replaced by end notes in published books and articles.  I hate
endnotes.  I have to be mightily interested in a particular passage to
bother to flip over to the end in search of the endnote.  Footnotes are
so much more convenient for the reader.

Hmm.  Good questions.  I bet this is indeed what we were debating
before.  What appeared to be the pulling off of the back of the pants
was the ripping of a hole.  I wish I'd taped it.  I need to watch it
again.  Bet it's easily findable at rental places.

I find topics of that kind quite interesting.

I would write a more compelling argument to try to convince you to tell,
but I need to turn off the computer.  I hate having to abandon a big
pile of new list mail as yet unread, especially since I'm not sure when
I'll be able to get back to it.  My guess is late afternoon -- that my
RRB&SIL, who say they're getting here around 5, will be much later and
that I can sit here doing e-mail while waiting for them.  If they aren't
late, however, it may be much later in the weekend before I get a chance
to return.  So y'all hold it down on the interestingness for a while.

But less convenient for the typesetter.  (Although, with modern writing

I've never seen a formal explanation.  In much of scientific publication,
i.e., journal articles, symposia, footnotes are discouraged---the notion
being that relevant explanation belongs in the text.  My guess is that it
is typographically simpler, probably cheaper, to collect all of the
footnotes in one place and print them in a more space-saving font.  I
noticed that Richard Dawkins, in his series of books on genetics and
evolution, makes very effective use of endnotes.  HIs method allows the
flow of the argument to proceed while providing the greater, sometimes
excruciating, detail in one place for those who want it.

>   Footnotes are so much more convenient for the reader.

That, like art and obscenity, is in the eye of the beholder.  I find
footnotes jarring.  I also don't like the form used by some science
publications of using small superscript numbers to denote references.  It
all depends on how one was trained, I suppose.

Yeah, but the USGS probably hasn't read the most recent blog on the subject...

Besides, the USGS is run by those old farts...

    According to the WSJ European preference for diesel - speaking of a
proper noun that has become generic - results in an overproduction of
regular petrol, which they then ship over here, and pass the savings on
to you.

I use it for my Taekwondo uniform on test days, of which today is one. (No

    Someone who filed <files>, generally in alphabetical order.  Actually, they
still exist.  Every doctor and veterinarian's office I've been in still has
color-coded paper files.  What's with that?

    Back in the Dear Dead Days there were companies who hired legions of women to
scan +every+ publication printed in English in this country, searching for any
mention of their clients or anything else said clients were willing to pay for.  I
used to work for one, the bastards.  (Even though they paid me more money than an
imprudent twenty-something could spend.  It was educational, still, and got me off

I guess it is a global economy... I was wondering if it reflected

Or what sources one has been dependent on.:) I got used to all of

Sender: owner-words-l@LISTSERV.UGA.EDU

Who exactly are the Harlem Globetrotters?  I've heard of them
all of my life, am aware that they are a basketball team, and
assume that they're based in Harlem.  But I don't really
understand what kind of basketball team.  I thought they did
things like basketball <shows> -- as in demonstrating cutsey
dribbling or shooting balls while standing on one's head or
stuff like that.  I didn't know they played real games.  I
gather, however, that the game they played here last night was
a regular game.  (I was just reading a write-up of it in the
Starkville Daily News, which is how I got interested in this
topic.)  Are they some kind of non-college team that plays
college teams for kicks?  Do they normally lose them?  Iow,
are they something like a professional creampuff that makes
money by offering itself up in various places?

I'll try to remember to ask people at lunch today and thus
will perhaps have the answer before I read list mail again.
But I may not remember to ask.  I need to ask a restaurant
question and am not sure I can hold two questions in my head
at the same time.

But why? Why are you quoting Straus and Howe as gospel? What is it about
their books that makes you a believer in their "seasons" theory?

That's pretty much what I meant by "training."  Most of the stuff I read
was footnote-free and used the author/date method of reference.  Things
like Science use the superscript method for references---and in a
publication like that, I can understand it, but I never really liked it.

You are correct, except that the name comes simply from the team comprising

I don't think they are a professional creampuff; it's an exhibition

Yeah. I guess linguistics is crossdisciplinary enough that I had to
read all 3 styles. I remember reading a lot of physics articles at one
point, and talking to friends about the stupid style. They were
physicists, though, so this was what they read all the time. They
didn't like the author/date references.

The USGS is a bunch of plum-job drones, thus full of silent-generation
scientists. I am sure they can easily be refuted on any rapid-fire
TV panel show. But let's theorize from the armchair--I mean, publish
to a blog--about Alaskan reserves. Even if anybody agreed on spending
the crushing sum of money to make the operation viable--which by the
way is unlikely since it may involve unpredictable changes in who
becomes the fattest cat--it would suddenly bring all kinds of pesky
enemies of progress into the picture, for instance environmental
activists, hippie scientists who infuriatingly say "no", lazy workers
unwilling to work in Alaska but who must at least be paid the astro-
nomically high minimum wage, and, evil of all evils, workers who might
unionize. All these could be quashed in time, but the initial overhead
is unacceptable. It might cost less to, say, electrify more cars, but
who wants to pay for that? It's the exact opposite of instant returns.

Actually I shouldn't even say that I'm repeating. It's a whole different
belt system -- except for that it starts with white and goes to black. The
colors in between are in a different order and there are more of them.

I was a brown belt when I moved out of the city in June 2001. I just started
again, at a new school up here in the burbs. I told them I'd happily start
as a white belt again, and they said they'd accelerate me through the first
couple of tests. So I'm doing two belts at a time, which is fine, because my
brain holds only limited amounts of information. The forms are the same but
some of the kicking combinations, the board breaks, and all of the self
defense techniques are different.

So, I'll be an orange belt (skipping yellow), and next time I'll go for blue
(skipping green) -- two belt colors I never had before as it happens. I
won't start coming to forms I don't know for a while, but I've been able to
make sharper much of what I already knew.

If not one single minute is to be spent in making a book marginally
interesting, it's accepted practice to pay people to review it.

I wanted to answer Natalie's question right way because I haven't been
following the Globetrotters for a while. Based on the information I read on
their website they play a lot of college games now. It seems they've been
doing this for quite some time. Their current owner has taken them from
financial ruin and has made them profitable.

I've pasted in some snipits from their website:

The Harlem Globetrotters have played before more than 120 million fans in
117 countries during their 76-year history. They've performed for popes,
presidents, kings and queens; own the best winning percentage in any sport
with nearly 21,000 victories; helped integrate professional basketball; and
set the standards for players of all levels around the world.

The Globetrotters were one of six basketball legends to join the sports
most illustrious  group at the Basketball Hall of fame during a ceremony in
Springfield, Mass this year (9/27/02). The Globetrotters are just the fifth
team, and the first since 1963, to be inducted into the Hall of Fame.

In 1948, the Globetrotters defeated the George Mikan-led, all-White NBA
Champion Minneapolis Lakers. Two year later, the NBA signed its first black
player, Nat "Sweetwater" Clifton a Harlem Globetrotter.

The team is renowned for developing and popularizing many aspects of the
game, including the dunk, crossover dribbling, the weave, three-pointer,
and half-court hook shot.

Globetrotter Michael "Wild Thing" Wilson, who holds the Guinness World
Record for highest slam dunk at 12-feet.

The Harlem Globetrotters will tip-off their 2002 Fall College Tour on
Tuesday at Purdue University, the first of nine game in 18 days on the
teams annual tour of serious games at campus across the country. Five of
the Globetrotters college opponents are ranked in the top-25 of numerous
national preseason polls.

The Harlem Globetrotters made history and headlines around the world on
January 12, 1998, when the team played their unprecedented 20,000th career
basketball game. No professional sports team, including the NBA, MLB, NHL,
and NFL, has ever reached this historical milestone.


They've also had at least two women amongst their ranks. Upon looking at
their roster and couldn't discern from the list of names any women
currently playing for them.

Other way 'round.  The cheaper oil (Russians have discovered that selling
it is way more sensible than having it spill in the taiga) stimulates
economic growth.  Now if the price were a few cents lower, the Chinese
might stop burning as much coal, and the Indonesians, cutting their trees.

I guess it is. The public library here seems to buy a lot of e-books.

Good questions from Alyce:

_When Generations Collide_ is by a different pair of authors (employment
consultants, to be precise, and I will provide their names over the
weekend, when I'm posting from home, and able to look them up.)

I'm a bit skeptical about cycles of history, precisely because cycles
imply arbitrage opportunities.  But there is enough hard demographic
evidence between the two sources cited for me to make the statements I'm
making.  And my purpose is to break the cycle.  The last thing I want to
see is another Consciousness Revolution, sometime around 2040-50.

I wasn't aware of that, but it makes sense.  I knew that they had had $$
troubles---not only had entertainment tastes changed, but they had about
reached saturation coverage with their act.

Wilt Chamberlain played for them for one year; as I recall, he had left KU
but the NBA had a rule (then unchallenged) against signing undergraduate
collegians before their class had graduated.

Their names are Lynne C. Lancaster and David Stillman. Saves you the
trouble of looking them up. And here, for the sake of those who are
unfamiliar with the work, is a brief introduction:

Bickering. Backbiting. Clashing. Colliding. Just another day at the
office . .
                                                         .
If your workplace sometimes feels like a battlefield and your colleagues
sometimes seem like aliens, you are not alone. Today there are four
distinct generations of employees glaring at one another from across the
conference table, and the potential for conflict and confusion has never
been greater.

In this insightful, captivating book, generational experts Lynne C.
Lancaster and David Stillman shed much-needed light on how to bridge
generational gaps at work by understanding the differences that drive
generations apart.

Traditionalist employees with their "heads down, onward and upward"
attitude live out a  work ethic that was shaped during the dark days of
the Great Depression. Meanwhile, the eighty million Baby Boomers are at
a crossroads,       trying to balance their overwhelming need to succeed
with their desire to slow down and enjoy the fruits of their labor. They
alternate between admiration and abhorrence for the chutzpah
demonstrated by Generation Xers, who, in addition to feeling as if they
have to prove themselves constantly, are chafing under the image of
being overly ambitious, disrespectful, and irreverent. Nipping at
everyone's heels are the new kids on the block, the  Millennials -- with
their unique mix of savvy and social conscience, they promise to change
yet again the landscape of the workplace....

Sorry for the duplication. I hit send and then tried to stop it because
I was not finished. Here is the rest of what I had meant to put in:

"....Lancaster and Stillman give you in-depth insights into each
generation. With heir help, you'll have the tools you need to recruit,
retain, motivate, and manage each  generation more effectively. And
you'll recognize that while collisions are inevitable, ultimately it's
how we manage them that counts.

I iron in a frequency somewhere between you and Rashmi -- once a week or so.
Most of my clothes either don't need ironing or don't need ironing between
dry cleanings.

Andrew Sullivan (http://andrewsullivan.com) has been all over this for
some time.  There is something to be said for the weblogs.  The problems
we face are keeping up with the good stuff others are posting, and keeping
track of the stuff that requires either fact-checking or fisking.

I would not wish you to stop posting the things
you sometimes post, because it gives me a
glimpse of sources I don't normally read.
However, I must say that for a moderate
audience your sources  have about the same
effect as would quotations from  Rush
Limbaugh.  But that's okay.  One must
always consider the source, and I'm a great
believer in seeking balance.

This one is sucky--very hard to read, and there's way to search the
site that I could find. So he may be all over it, but you couldn't
prove it by me.

        It appears to be a blogging term; journalist Robert Fisk was
beaten up by Afgan refugees on the Afghanistan-Pakistan border and wrote a
column about how he understood why, forgave them, and even agreed with
them, even in the midst of the pain.  The column earned him heaps of scorn
from the right, for some reason.  Apparently right-wing bloggers have
coined the verb "to fisk" to mean the verbal beating of an anti-war and
therefore anti-American commentator who has somehow earned this abuse by
merely speaking.

Fisking is different from Misting.

Tom Lee has the basics.  But Fisking might simply be a rather thorough
form of peer review, with point-counterpoint responses to each paragraph,
giving particular attention to non-sequiturs, Complex Propositions,
question-begging, and other errors of logic.  And Robert Fisk really
deserves it sometimes (Bill Sjostrom has been on several Fisk columns
lately), even when he isn't falling to the inanity of "if I were a
troubled Third Worlder, I'd beat up a European" which is the column Tom
refers to.

There is another form of rebuttal based on MST3K (which I'm not real
familiar with.)  Misha, at http://www.nicedoggie.net, has some good ones
up.

It might depend on one's perspective, but I seem to recall that the
antidote to speech is more speech, and the right wing has no monopoly on
abusive rebuttals.  Can you say James Carville?

DC to Seattle on T'Day itself, and then on Friday down to LA, for
(probably) a gathering of the fannish clan at a convention; then down to
San Diego and a few days of recreation before the annual SMOFcon
(convention for science fiction con-runners, then back to Baltimore for the
XML conference, then fall over.

Your highly reasonable tone is much appreciated. However, I,
like many people I know, seriously wonder about the viability
of a "small guy" software business with any ambition, in the
coming years. Just the laws and litigation that has grown in
volume lately. No connection with homeland security that I
know of. But indirect phenomena are sometimes suggestive...
like all sorts of research now has a "useful for anti-
terrorism" tag.

The groaning bored will be at our house.

Well that's not fair for this year - it describes last year.  This year
we'll have a new baby and a couple of winsome happy teenagers, as well as
a brand new adult face.  God, I hope the talk doesn't turn to football.

Turkey sucks.  (But we'll have it.)

Will Ligniere have Thanksgiving with Karen, or with his family?

Today I had to place a call to the VA Hospital
in Omaha for information about Gene's records.
I was shifted from one department to another,
a common experience, but what was uncommon
was this:  At each department the person I was
talking to could not proceed until I answered
this question:

           "Whatsyolasfo?"

I finally figured it out and was able to get through
to the department I needed after answering the Q.

Would you know what this question was?

Yes.

But 'social' still throws me. Go figure. I want to answer "Why, yes, I
am, thank you!"

It would take me a couple of seconds, but I'd figure it out -- after all,
what piece of information would one expect to be asked for in this
situation?

Exactly.  I did figure it out, but it threw me for
a moment.  It was not the question, but the
accent.  Of course, all they had to do was to
finish the sentence, but not one of them did that.

Instant Messenger keeps getting more spooky . .
invasive? . . .

I came in here to check my mail before going
to bed, and all of a sudden my daughter was
talking to me out of thin air.  I had not turned
anything on or made a request.  She was just
talking to me through my speakers.  It scared
me at first until I recognized her voice.

Of course I love to talk to her and we had a
good late night chat.  But I was amazed that
this could be.  I wonder if it could happen that
someone else could start talking, someone that
I had not invited.

My daughter told me that Yahoo really has a
better instant messenger and asked me to go
there and sign up.  I did, and when I did I got
the message that there was a list of people waiting
to talk to me.  I was given a choice to recontact
them or to deny their request.  All of them were
East Indians.  (not from here, but in India, I think)

Funny thing.  Recently on my Yahoo mail
account, which I use only when I travel, I have
had a lot of mail from East Indians who say they
have gotten my name from some service.  I don't
understand.  It's very strange.  Most of them are
young men who want to talk, but of course some
of them suggest they want more.

If they knew they were writing to an elderly
lady in Nebraska they would just <die>.  I think
the whole thing is funny.  But I can't figure out
how it happens.

Oh, does this mean we all get to swap IM IDs?  I've been waiting for a good

Hey, just wait until you're sitting at your computer
and someone starts talking to you out of the
blue.  I mean it makes you sit up and take notice.

Why do you think I don't do sound on this computer? :)

I saw a friend do something kinda like that a couple weeks ago, and it was
one of the most effective computer demos I'd ever seen, just for the
seamless effortlessness of it.

We were visiting an Apple exec at Apple's Galactic Headquarters in
Cupertino, and my friend realized he should show the exec how cool
voice/video chat was.

*Without plugging anything in*, he took his laptop out of his bag and
opened it up, started a video chat program, and yelled at the screen, "Hey,
anybody there?"

We were looking at an empty computer chair in somebody's house.

We saw the owner of the chair walk over, sit down and put a headset on, and
start to say hi back.

Turns out the Apple campus has an open wireless LAN -- if you're in the
building with a wireless network card, you can hop right onto the 'net,
which is what the laptop did.

        `Harry Potter' protesters hold book-shredding party

        Associated Press


  LEWISTON, Maine -- A preacher led a group in shredding copies of Harry
  Potter books on the eve of the release of the movie ``Harry Potter and
  the Chamber of Secrets.''

  ``I feel like I'm in a cutting mood tonight,'' the Rev. Douglas Taylor
  told 30 supporters before bringing out the scissors.

  Taylor said he had wanted to burn the Potter books in protest, but the
  city would not issue him a permit. He settled for the book-chopping
  party Thursday night at the Ramada Inn.

  The movie was to open today. Adapted from the second of J.K. Rowling's
  best-selling books, ``Chamber of Secrets'' follows Harry through year
  two at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, where he has a
  rematch with the evil conjurer who killed his parents.

  ``It's no secret that I enjoy what I'm doing right now,'' Taylor said,
  ripping up a book. ``Hallelujah,'' said supporter Walter Stradt as he
  tore and tossed a page out.

  About 25 Harry Potter fans waved signs in a counter-protest outside
the
  hotel. One of them, wearing a black trench coat and sporting an
  orange-and-pink mohawk, went inside and told Taylor, ``You shouldn't
be
  cutting it up. It's a kid's book.''

  Taylor charges the Potter books were full of witchcraft and pagan
  religion.

  ``You get involved in this,'' he said, gesturing toward a Potter book.
  ``It's gonna make you dirty.''

Maggy Browne has moved to Yorkshire and is unable to convince her server
there to connect her to Words-L. She sends word that Julie Creech died
in her sleep a couple of days ago. She had had no illness (other than
being completely dysfunctional), so just wore out, I guess.
Sophie is five years old this weekend. Time flies.

You've caught me at a time that I am going out of the book business
and selling all my books at a 50 % discount throught the end of  the
year
when I will vacate my premises.

    In the unlikely event you are in Seattle before the end of the year
stop by.

What do they do?  I realized later what a clipping service is/was --
people hired to gather newspaper clippings, right?

In spite of the protests in Iran, I'm not convinced that all of the
people in those countries consider it a failed ideology.

It reminds me more of the don't-trust-anyone-over-thirty thing.  Not
really, I guess.  It's more like
why-worry-about-anything-when-you're-bingo-playing-age.  Sort of like
you're no longer a player in life.

Somebody at lunch yesterday said that he thought maybe they had two
different teams -- one that did the demos of fancy dribbling and such
and another that went around playing games like ours.  I'm not sure he
knew what he was talking about, though.

Right, since I haven't seen any sign of mistrust. This
is just a very general and imprecise characterization.

That may be a little more true, but I still don't see any
signs of a full-blown attitude like that. Rita (love of my
life)'s main contention, as I see it, is that old farts *are*
players in life and keep being so ... but take no trouble
to clue themselves in to the world. Note, I don't agree with
all of this, but you know my history of old-fart flaming.

Boy, there were some world-class "you'll understand" old
farts on the list then ... Today's list doesn't even compare.
Strangely enough, I think it was the invasion of the Bonnies
and Betties which diluted the old fart attitudes.

I'm happy to report that I won't have to go anywhere this year.  I will
spend the long weekend grading papers, doing usual stuff, and maybe even
finding time to sort stuff in my junk room or read a book.

The history's all there on their web site ... I thought I knew
but learned a lot more, actually. They must be admired--they were
clearly doing "synergy" long before the concept was coined. You
might say their game is more "real" than the NBA, for instance
you could say it comes closer to why somebody plays basketball
in the first place ...

Thanks for letting us know.  I had thought she must have died well
before now since the xmas card I sent her last year was returned as
"addressee unknown" (the address having been that nursing home or
whatever it was that we last had for her).

Brad has been on nomail for a good while because of not having time to
keep up with the volume.  He promises to return to us, though.  He's not
vanishing from the list.

He sounded good when I talked to him late this afternoon.  He asked
about list goings-on and was happy to hear that Steve was back.  He said
to tell Steve that he's looking forward to some more train discussions.

I've never thought of not bothering to clue oneself in to the world as
generational.  But then I've never thought much about generational
things anyway.  I'm guessing, though, that old people (excluding those
who have developed senility of some kind or who are in pain from disease
or whatever) are no more likely than young people to be clueless.  I was
appalled at yesterday's student newspaper when I read some of the
answers given to the roving reporter who asked whether they were worried
about the upcoming war with Iraq.  One (and I'll at least give her
credit for an honest answer that made sense) said something like, "No, I
don't pay any attention to the news.  I'm too busy with classes and
working."  Another one said something like, "No, there are always
conflicts going on in the world.  They don't affect us."

So "your" to them was supposed to be automatically assumed to mean
"his"?  I find that weird.  Ok, now that I'm pondering this, I guess I
can imagine a scenario where "what is your [whatever]?" could be
understood as "what is the [whatever] of the person you're calling on
behalf of?"  Maybe.  But I do think that just asking for "your last
four" is rather odd.  It strikes me as much odder than "What is your
social?"

Note the crucial difference--the clueless kid is not constantly
telling you what to do. "Old farts" have opinions and rules of
behavior mapped out for pretty much everything, backed by their
impeccable old-fart credentials.

Excellent try, "Mutant"! Anyway, sometimes it seemed like not

This was about Brad's mom, Miss Nancy. (I thought the same thing as

Very much.

Gwynnie and I just pulled it out this week and watched it again.  I think
the story and voice acting are great, in league with the best animated
features; and the film work -- camera moves, lighting, modeling, textures,
puppetry -- is gorgeous, at the top of the art.

A nit: Randy Newman's score is well-done, and it does what it's supposed
to, but I'm not really crazy about it.  Chacun a son gout, and all that.

But altogether, I think it's a real treat.

I thought that the Tupelo obit was the one that Natalie was talking
about last week--with the Baptist minister who served in the jails, the
one she did not want to call. I guess I was wrong...

What is your last four would not have seemed odd
to me.  He (it was a guy) knew I was looking at and
quoting from a piece of paper, more than likely, so
he meant what numbers do you have there to give me?

What seemed odd was the run-together yo' las' fo',
which is a lingo my ear is not accustomed to hearing.

That was yesterday that I said that I might have some e-time around 5:00

the four possible thats.)  But they did.  We had a pleasant visit.  We
visited Mama late afternoon yesterday, then went out to eat, then came
here and talked and drank, then slept, then this morning went and
visited Mama again, then went to the game, left at the half, and they
returned to Hville while I watched a little bit of the rest of the game
on tv, though mainly I did things like wash sheets and towels, clean up
various things, and come in here to do e-mail.  I left the tv on with
its distant sound until somewhere late in the fourth quarter, when I
turned it off.  I told Bethany that she didn't know what she was talking
about when she seemed to imply that UT was the worst of the worst.  UT
today faced The Real Worst.  The game did have a couple of good moments,
but mainly it was bad, bad, bad.  And, as I think I mentioned earlier, I
don't really understand why people want to go to live games when they
can watch them on tv.  You see and know so much more from a tv set than
from sitting there in the cold wind.

I assume this is a jump back to the dead person in Knoxville.  No, I
didn't call him.  But I did write him a letter and send a contribution
to the Knox County Association of Baptists (the name of which I found by
trying to trace the name of the preacher who did the funeral).

My excellent try was an honest question to which I expected an answer.
I'm not suggesting there weren't such people.  I just don't remember
exactly who.

Oh.  I thought you were just transiting from that obituary to the

Oh.  Re running together, most speech is run-together.  We know how to
separate the words because we as small children do non-conscious
morphological analysis when acquiring our native languages.  It's harder
for people acquiring later languages, but they also make the leap to
separating words if they progress in the language acquisition.

As for the words themselves, yo' and las' and fo' are normal
pronunciations in AAVE (African Amercian Vernacular English).  I didn't
have any trouble at all understanding the words in the sentence you
conveyed.  AAVE is very much part of the world I've lived in all my
life.  The las' is not unusual in rapid speech in lots of other
dialects, btw.  The yo' and fo' would be, though.  Other postvocalic
r-less dialects, like older Southern coastal speakers ("coastal" not
necessarily meaning living on a coast -- it goes up the Mississippi
River, for example, with The Delta and Memphis being very much the coast
dialect region) have a schwa in place of the r.

About as spooky as my TV turning itself off and on?
I got so mad at it that I yelled, which scared Sweetie,
and I had to pick her up and cuddle her.  I wish she
knew that I would never yell at _her_.

I'll have to get a good used set now, I guess, even
though I have the MA on this one; it will take so long
at the service department.

        LOL.  Some things never change.  They can chop up as many as
they like -- I'm sure the publisher doesn't mind care what
happens to the books after they're sold and all profits have
been made.

        FWIW, I've already had one parent pissed off that I'm
teaching Inferno (for pete's sake), and I'm bracing for the
start of Mockingbird at Thanksgiving.

Me too.  I could finally stomach IM with Trillian, because it can connect
to AIM, Y!, MSN, IRC, and ICQ all at the same time, with a nice interface
and no ads.

Love it.  It's a good movie, and, knowing how management
felt about the associates, I'm surprised that it played as long
on our DVD players as it did (one copy came with an iMac).
It's a very subversive movie:  about how the ants, emboldened
by the circus bugs from the outside world (which the ants think
are warrior bugs) finally fight back against the grasshoppers
who have been forcing the ants to provide for them.

Probably not strange at all in the context: a person who asks the
same question hundreds of times a day, day after day, to a variety of
callers. It probably rolls out that way without an instant's
forethought.

As one who believes that the NBA is not really basketball but rather one
small step away from rock concerts, I agree.  The 'Trotters were honest in
their showmanship; the present NBA tries to hide behind the shield of
"athleticism."  To me, the only real game of basketball is at the
collegiate level, and I'm beginning to think (as does John Wooden) that
maybe the womens' version is superior in this.

I was about 3 minutes into it when I posted my query. At about five
minutes into it, I was being driven crazy by not being able to
remember one of the voices, so I looked it up on IMBD, where it only
got a 7.5 out of 10, and the only user comment that was there was
really derogatory. So I wondered.

Yeah, I think 'gorgeous, at the top of the art' says it all.

Not nearly that dramatic.  I opened up my finger just distal to the knuckle
on a can lid.  At the time, I had a cabbage and white bean stew going in
the early stages on the stove and Bonnie was taking a bath, so I was pretty
much on my own.  The interesting thing is that when I finally mustered the
courage to remove the bandage (some 24 hours later), it lifted the glue off
with it and the cut was nearly totally sealed.

Oh yes---the most important thing---no wooden utensils were stained in the
process (and blood washes off granite quite easily).

I know your question was honest. It just failed in eliciting
an answer, thus becoming nothing more than a nice try. You
have to show more finesse to make me blurt out names.

No.  See my other response.  This was one of those incidents where the
damned thing wouldn't stop bleeding, but it wasn't sufficiently serious to
begin thinking about the ER.  Moreover, one can buy a lot of tubes of Krazy
Glue [tm] for the price of one ER visit.

Oh yes.  She's not that out of it.  It's not like Daddy when he
recognized only Mama and the dogs (their dog and Bernard).  He
recognized Bernard long after he had ceased to recognize me.  Mama isn't
like that at all.  She doesn't have alzheimers.

I thought about Bernardykins at today's fb game when the cannon did its
thing -- blasting after an MSU touchdown.  I remember how much he hated
hearing that cannon fire from the stadium.  He would shake and jump into
my arms.  It's funny how different dogs are from each other.  Spencer is
so very much more <macho> than Bernardykins was, even though
Bernardykins had his balls intact and Spencer has only a shriveled hint
of what used to be there.

Why?  Not everything about those years is perfect, but that's true of

Right.  Note my "not really, I guess."  It's just that it reminds me of
that kind of thinking, not specifically of that thought.  Iow, I've
never quite <gotten> the idea of stereotyping of people of certain
generations.  I realize that influences and circumstances vary from
generation to generation, but I've never really noticed that people of
different generations are all that different from each other.

I do think this is a good thing to know about.  Thank you.  But I'm
trying to decide what it means that you went more than twenty-four hours
without telling us about the <incident>.

Do y'all remember the good old days when there were no old farts pushing
us around on the list?  When was it that the first old fart showed up?
Was it late '80s?  Early '90s?  I'm trying to remember.  Was Heather an
old fart?  If not, then who?

Does your mother's nursing home put on a nice meal?  There is a nursing
home in Sheboygan which has a table for each person and his or her
family.  Good food, nice celebration.

I don't suppose you have any memory now of that old ophthalmology book
that you sent me four or five or six or eight or whatever number of
years ago, do you -- as in its title?  The reason I'm asking is that
I've been e-baying tonight, for only about the second time in my life.
Crazy story.  An old high school friend claims that the Dutch Bar in
Jackson has closed and that its neon sign is about to go up for sale on
e-bay.  So I went to e-bay for the first time in a long time and second
(I think) time ever.  Didn't find the Dutch Bar sign but did start
prowling around in various searches.  Can't remember now what I was
doing that led me into old ophthalmic stuff, but I stumbled upon several
old books, and that reminded me that my RRB seemed to like that book you
gave me years ago and said that he collected such books.  E-bay suddenly
struck me as a good place to xmas shop.  But I'd hate to get him another
copy of the same book.

Possibly they do, but Mama won't get out of her bed to participate in
something like that.

Thanks, Pete.  I saved these urls for looking at after getting through
mail and doing some other stuff.  I've looked at only your first listing
so far -- "the blogging revolution" -- but have already learned
something I didn't know about before:  the profit motive of blogging.
When I read this:

I wondered what it was talking about -- like what blogs had to do with
making money.  Then I read this:

Well, at least I'm improving.  I guess I should give it a break of at

I don't know a damn bit of history here, but I guess the first
"blog" must have been--that guy who had a travelogue and lots
of things to say about web site building. The site got lots of
awards apparently. He was one pompous bore--not the Californian
kind but the MIT kind, I think.

I met the women who own this business today; they started it when one
of them were getting divorced. They have a good sense of humor about
the whole thing.

        I think there is something to it, but not when you get down
to individuals... ie, generation can have something to do
with trends.

        But my thinking has nothing to do with that thought.

Old fart-ism--far more a joke than a real observation, by the way--is
about age, not generations. Every generation reaches a given age sometime.
Anyone who accepts the theory of old fart-ism is joyously proclaiming
exactly what you said, that different generations are not all that
different from each other. Rita (the supreme crush of my life) does
have other things to say about boomerScum, but that's a separate
subject.

So why rant against old farts all the time? That one may not become
one ...

I know it now. But I only skimmed it, saw Baptist, remembered your

Yes, that is what is so amusing. I guess the minister hasn't thought of
that. My sister's in a church reading group and this month's assignment
is the first Harry Potter book. I sent her the chopping party article,
which she said she will share with the other church ladies. She said
that ministers like the one in Maine give religion a bad name.
One of her granddaughters who lives in St. Louis went to see the new
movie yesterday with her other grandmother. Of course the born-agains in
Colorado are not allowed to read the books nor see the movies.

I don't remember its title or author, but I do think that it was 1934 or
1935. If you go to the advanced search {at upper right) on
http://www.bibliodirect.com and put ophthalmology in the keyword slot,
there are heaps of books.

Here's an old one, and cheap, too.

3. A HANDBOOK OF THE DISEASES OF THE EYE AND THEIR TREATMENT. Swanzy,
Henry R. Publisher: P. Blakiston, Son & Co. Date of Publication: 1892
Place of Publication: Philadelphia
Edition: Fourth Edition
Condition of Book: Fair/No Jacket
Description: 8vo 518 pages, plus ads; Brown
cloth covers are worn, though gilt lettering on
spine remains bright; Foot of spine is frayed;
Hinges (internal) are broken, and covers are a
little loosened; Contents are slightly shaken,
though are otherwise intact, and very clean with
no markings, etc.
         Price: $15.00 (Convert currency)

Well, it is not in the greatest condition, but there are many more. You
are apt to do better searching on this database than at ebay, I think.
It is dangerous to buy books on ebay because the sellers are mostly not
booksellers, but amateurs, and there are many misrepresentations.
BiblioDirect is well-policed and you have to be reputable to list there.

They do. This sounds like a case where I would normally side with
the church, but this is just stupid. Moreover, churches who fear
witchcraft should be thanking Harry Potter, for defanging and
disneyfying witches totally. Anyway, this is just a sad, content-
free and decidedly non-titanic struggle between two lameass forces,
so who cares.

Speaking of churches, the north-side lakeshore is pretty much
going to fall into the lake some day ... I frequently can't
determine if this church here is a Lutheran church or a commune
of some kind, I mean "sun worship"? That was the first item on
the day's schedule. Sun worship, Nigerian families in dazzling
Othello Moor of Venice costumes coming down the steps, scruffy
middle-aged guys in rumpled T-shirts and shorts, what the hell
is going on. In New York, the church near where I was staying
had an explicitly sanctioned "come as you are" service. Why
even go to church? Anyhow, if you take a bus going away from
the lake on a Sunday, you see older principles reasserting
themselves. Little girls are dolled up, and men are wearing
suits--they may be cheapass, but they are clean, they are
pressed, and they are SUITS. It is relatively independent of
whether they are Polish, or Croatian or Korean or whatever.
They take it seriously.

I'm still drawing blanks.  Were they literally old farts (the literally
goes with old there, not with farts), or were they younger people
participating in oldfartiness?

Do all generations have names?  If so, what's the name of the one just
before Boomers?  That would be mine, but I don't know its name.  I might
need that info at some point -- like it might be a blank on a form to
fill out or something.

I did bid on one on ebay last night and am likely to <win>.  What
happens next?  Do the seller and I then exchange e-mail about the
arrangements?  This is my first ebay play.  It's a 1903 book listed for
$5.50.  I bid $8, and the bidding closes today.  Here's the url:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=1581648380&ssPageName=ADME:B:

I notice that it gives my name as the high bidder but doesn't have the
bid listed at $8.  It has it at the original $5.50.  I'm confused.

If you read the text just below the window in which you typed your
bid, it should become clear.

Yo! Good to hear from you.

I'll stick close to the home region and make a couple of events (keeping up
appearances, that is) on The Day, and then perhaps take a mini shopping
excursion to Nashville. R&R shall be the focus for the rest of 2002.

I have no memory now of the place I typed my bid.  I do remember finding
it difficult to find the right place to do the bidding.

I just found it again and remember why I was confused.  I just wanted to
bid, not do a maximum bid.  But I guess that's the same thing, isn't it
-- like if I had told it $5.50 and somebody else then said $6, I could
go back and say $6.50?  So I take it that I'm probably going to get this
book for $5.50 instead of for the $8 I was willing to pay for it.
Interesting.

I don't like, btw, that my e-mail address is splattered there for
spammers.  Although I don't go out of my way to hide it from spammers --
that would interfere with my net life too much, I would prefer not to
have it sitting on a public ebay page for everybody selling books or
whatever I've bid on to start spamming me.

Yes, but since you entered a maximum bid of $8 that will happen
automatically up to your maximum. If I go bid $6, your bid will
automatically go to $6.50.

I've been doing some preliminary shopping. I'd like to make a tasteful
splash this season (i.e. staying away from the gold and glitter ... or
should I not stay away?). Suggestions?

At the top of any eBay screen you'll see a link to "my eBay." Go
there and select the Preferences tab, then change your user id to
something innocuous. Your e-mail address has to included in your
profile, of course, but it doesn't have to be your user id.

If yours is the first bid, it will be at $5.50 (which I presume is the
seller's minimum required bid). If someone bids more, ebay automatically
will bid for you up to $8.00 and then send you a notice if you are
outbid at that point. If this happens, you can bid again. If you win,
you will receive a notice from ebay, and presumably from the seller. It
being SUnday, you might not hear from the seller until tomorrow. Then
you arrange between yourselves about payment and shipping.

Yes, still at $5.50--you are the only bidder, so probably will get it at
that price plus shipping of $2.00. A nice choice, Natalie.

Thanks.  I'm there now, trying to find a unique userid.  It didn't
surprise me that natalie was already taken, but it does surprise me that
natalie43 is.  I'm now trying to think of something unrelated to my
name.  Maybe coldweathersux or something like that.

Oh dear.  How long does it have to be to be long -- i.e., to be
whorish?  I've got a longish black skirt with a side split and a longish
black skirt with front and back splits.  Neither is all the way down to
the floor, though.  And I don't wear either of them with jacket-type
quilted tops.

Thanks.  In a way this sounds like more trouble than it's worth.  I
notice that the seller takes paypal.  I used paypal that time we did the
Evelyn scholarship thing -- the paypal Pete had set up.  Does that mean
I'm a paypal <member> or whatever?  Like can I use paypal again easily?
Do I have to remember some kind of password or something?  I have no
memory now of how it worked, but I do remember that it did indeed work.

I don't use Paypal; I won't use Paypal. If you cannot figure it out, use
a credit card.

        I thought maybe you had an interest in the level of
discourse, but I'm probably misremembering, which I'm doing
a lot of again lately.  Had an amusing are-you-pregnant
moment at the doctor's the other day when I couldn't
remember my last menstrual period for the life of me.  BTW,
I've decided I really like my doctor even if it is easy to
get an appointment with him (as long as it is M-F during the
day).  Anyway, the paper is kind of interesting and I hope
other Ed Skool types read it and apply some of what Dr. Zeni
is doing.

But didn't somebody say a few days ago that that generation was not the
right age for Vietnam?  My generation was very much the right age for
it.

But individuals don't normally take credit cards, do they?  I noticed
that this particular seller (the bid I made) said that he/she will take
personal checks, though it might slow down the process (which is ok
since I'm not in a hurry).  But I think the other one I was just looking
at -- the foxing one -- said something like paypal and money orders and
maybe something else, but I don't think the something else was credit
cards -- and it specified no personal checks.

Most of the people I've won auctions from don't take credit cards.

But note my past tense in the original statement.  I'm not a teenager
now.  I said loved.

I wrote a paper on the language of e-mail on a whim in the late '80s for
reading at something like SAMLA.  It was then invited to be published in
an anthology.  That book was delayed for several years in press, which
made my late-'80s paper sound quite old-fashioned when it finally was in
print in something like the middish '90s.  I do for some reason get tons
of e-mail requests for copies of the paper.  I've always found that
weird since it was a wispy nothing of a paper.  I wrote it as a jolly
lark -- using examples from things like old Relay.

No.  I thought "boomer" referred to the "baby boom" that occurred right
after WWII.  I was born in the middle of the war.

The various steps involved -- communicating with the dealer about what
we're going to do -- how he/she is going to mail it, how I am going to
pay.  Then there's a bother of mailing something like a check if that is
what I end up needing to do.  It's much simpler to shop at regular
online places where you do everything in one quick zip.

Why is that called foxing, btw?

        I think it started during the war.  My mom was born during
the war (but for some reason I don't think she's as old as
you -- I know she hasn't hit 60 yet -- that makes no sense
at all), and she's definitely a boomer.

        I've been a part of a lot of classes where the virtual
discourse is very forced and useless.  What Dr. Zeni is
doing is far more organic -- I think you need have been a
part of a good virtual community (like words-l, for example
or some of the old usenet communities) to understand how one
differs from the other.

The term "boom" doesn't strike me as making sense with the mid-war
years.
...
I just did a quick google for "boomers definition" and found this as the
first hit:

                           Baby boomers comprise the
                           cohort of Americans born
                           between 1946 and 1964.

                           They are referred to as a
                           post-war bulge in population.
from: http://www.unt.edu/cpe/module1/deffile/def7-02.htm

I didn't check to see what the Roper Modules are exactly, but that
definition certainly fits with what I've always thought "baby boomers"
meant.

Because foxes are brown? I don't know. It's not in the online AHD or
M-W.

Maybe your mother is a "boomer at heart," Rita:

***********
 What is a Baby Boomer anyway? The common
 definition is that people born between 1946 and
 1964 are considered "Baby Boomers." But,
 actually, if you were a senior in high school any
 year after 1961, then you can consider yourself
 in this group, because you are a "baby
 boomer" at heart!
***********
from: http://wz.com/people/BabyBoomers.html

If your mother is younger than I am (I'm not yet 60 either, btw, but am
closing in on it), then she would have graduated from hs after '61
(unless she was ahead of her age group).  But the above doesn't include
me.  I graduated in June '61.

Re ages and wars, btw, sometime when I had a huge pile of mail a few
days ago and was deleting rapidly, I did notice something about being
born in 1939 making one too old to be drafted for Vietnam.  That's not
true.  My brother, born in '39, certainly didn't join the Air Force
because he wanted to.  As it turned out, he spent his required years
flying around in little jets in the Southeastern USA, but he
nevertheless was given some kind of medal saying he served during the
Vietnam War.  Med school did not keep somebody safe from the draft the
way some kinds of grad school did (for a while -- the rules changed, I
realize -- I remember all that well since I knew lots of people affected
by the rapidly changing rules).  But I don't think the rules re med
school changed at all.  Unlike some grad students, males in med school
couldn't keep getting deferred and then hop out at the end too old to be
drafted.  They had a choice of going in as GPs right after their
internships or going in as specialists if they did their residencies
first.  The military was perfectly happy to wait for them to finish
their residencies if that's what they preferred to do since they were
happy to have more specialists.  Most of the ones I knew went in after
the internships, though, and got the obligatory military done before
starting their residencies.

Well, so far I haven't found a definition of "boomer" that would include
me -- not even the "boomers at heart" I just found.  As I said earlier,
I can't figure out what kind of sense it would make to consider people
born two years before the birth boom started as "boomers."  "Pre-boomer"
perhaps, with the implication that the pre means not long before -- like
the pre-Romantics etc. -- but not "boomer."

That is very interesting, Karen. However, the one that Natalie is
dealing with does take credit cards. Otherwise I would not have
suggested it.

I may have misread the informtion for the merchant with whom you are
dealing, but I swear I saw little credit card icons. I have rebooted
since I looked and don't have the URL handy any more.

Boomers include people born during the war, too. People were <coupling>
like mad before Daddy went overseas, and all that. This does not mean
that it was so in your parents' case, but still you fit in the

I met my deadline quite handily and handed off the latest revs of my manauls
for production late Friday afternoon.

Anyone care to summarize what, if anything, I've missed over the past two
weeks? My mailbox was oddly serene while I was on nomail. Some days I'd have
less than 30 messages, and it was just bizarre.

Go for comfort. If it happens to be gold and glitter so be it.  I want

This is fascinating ("this" being the whole process)!  I went back and
discovered I had <won> and that it was time to pay.  Suddenly there were
a bunch of credit-card logos sitting there, even though the original
info had said that the seller would take paypal or money order or
something like "electronic payment" (I say something like because I
don't remember the exact term -- it was something I didn't know what was
and thus kind of ignored).  Ok, so I decided to click first on paypal
since I had used it that time with Pete.  I gave my e-mail address as
the paypal login, just guessing that that's how it had worked, but then
had to give a password.  I guessed a likely password, but it didn't
work.  So I gave up on paypal and went back and told it to use Visa.  I
filled in my Visa info, and lo and behold what that did was to create a
paypal account for me.  When it asked me to choose a password, it
required more characters than the one I was going to use, so I made up a
different one, one that I vaguely remembered having used one time
before, a long time ago, for couldn't remember what.  Well, guess what.
It accepted my info and then told me that I alreaady had a paypal
account and that next time I didn't need to fill in all the info that I
filled in this time.  Iow, the password I made up today was the one I
had used my one other time to use paypal.

What is still interesting to me, though, is that the seller's info had
originally said nothing about taking credit cards, then credit card
logos appeared after the auction was declared closed, but the credit
card logos led to the creation of a paypal account.

In any case, now I'm <ready to roll>.  Since I assume that most of these
sellers take paypal, I can gallop all over ebay buying all kinds of
stuff.  BUT I'VE *GOT* TO QUIT DOING THIS RIGHT NOW AND GRADE PAPERS!!
I was going to grade them early this morning.  I wanna retire!

PS: After I completed the transaction, ebay recommended that I become a
"verified buyer" -- that sellers preferred "verified buyers."  I clicked
on the button to see how to become a verified buyer and saw that it
required giving bank info.  Somehow I just don't much want to do that.
If I understand correctly how ebay works, and I may well not, the
sellers are committed to selling to the highest bidder, aren't they?  If
so, then what does their preference for dealing with "verified buyers"
have to do with anything -- as in how can my status as unverified and
therefore less desirable affect my transactions?

Did you look at it before or after the auction was closed?  I saw those
logos after it was closed.  Before that I had seen a blurb saying that
the seller would accept paypal or personal check.  In my posting a
minute ago re the money order and electronic whatever, I was thinking
about that other seller -- the one that said no personal checks.
Neither of them had mentioned credit cards.

In all the many, many times I've read and heard the term used through
the years ("baby boom" before the term "boomer" was born from it), it
has always been in the context of post-war.  This is the first I've ever
heard of its including the war years.

I've known the term "baby boom" since I was high school age at the
latest -- iow, well over forty years, probably longer -- far longer than
the internet has been in common use.  And I've never seen (until today
on Words-L) anything other than 1945 or 1946 as the beginning of the
Baby Boom -- 1945 for the beginning of the rampant conceiving, 1946 for
the beginning of the results of that conceiving.

Let's see.  Where were we two weeks ago?  We were coming upon election
day, I guess.  So let me see if I can remember the high points of what
you missed.

- the hiding of Alyce's voting place
- reasons to vote even if you don't like any of the candidates
- the evils of Republicanism and scariness of the future
- Dubya's oil-grabbing efforts
- the departure of some of Karen's dog friends
- the definition of xtian
- mold and insurance
- Alyce's recovery from lung rot and turn to Meals on Wheels
- motorized grocery buggies
- Theo's ISP problems
- the return of Steve and his lack of recent sailing
- the relationship between politics and the economy
- whore shirts
- OUTBREAK
- the significance of blogging
- what Bad Betty did in Mexico
- Clyde's self-mutilation and the uses of Superglue
- generational attitudes/wars/definitions
- how to shop and pay on ebay

Other people will no doubt fill in some of the gaps I've left.

I think it's very interesting that you guys are so focussed on the
past that that's the only use you can think of.

Both. Or more precisely, they weren't so damn old that had to be
acting that way.

No, Natalie, the logos were there when the auction still was open. I
believe your eye just moved to the words and didn't stop to see the
pretty icons. This is why I said, "Just use your credit card."

Forget it. They are just seeking more and more information about people.
They are getting drunk with power. If you bid and win and pay, they have
to deal with you. Unless and until the information is required under the
Patriot Act, that is.

My teenage years were basically fun. Very tense a lot of times, but
overall, fun. This was because (a) our communistic school system
enforced all kinds of equalities among students with quite different
wealths (b) the culture enforced quaintly romantic and chivalrous
relationships between boys and girls (c) kids doing well at exams
were not persecuted on a daily basis (d) I could and did hang out
with the "last bench" crowd, without experiencing the slightest
opposition (e) there were very few parents who "pushed" their kids
into 20 different things (f) few parents thought of imposing stupid
conditions like "you can do this if you get this grade" etc. The
degrading effects of exam culture hit us sooner or later, but I
now think that overall, there was still a principle at work, namely
that to be "cultured" meant prolonging your child's childhood, so
we came out relatively innocent, nerdy and spineless, and thank god
for that.

        I think it includes those who were the "right age" for
Vietnam, the whole 50's nightmare, hippie stuff, Kennedy,
and so forth...  By your definition, my mom and dad aren't
boomers, but they certainly did everything boomers do
(except Dad didn't go to Vietnam because he wasn't eligible
-- my uncles all did, though).

        I've heard "busters" in reference to my generation, too.
That's why we are supposedly such a mystery -- not enough of
us for the advertisers to study -- they're still going for
the boomer bucks.

I can tell you from experience at work that there is no "support
mechanism" like email. This kind of thing has happened multiple
times: somebody stuck a trouble-ticket system, or something equally
complicated, between people. It failed, but we didn't realize it.
Then I--and pardon the hubris but it was me--just went ahead and
set up a LIST, without asking. It was a screaming success. Trouble-
shooting, "knowledge pooling", whatever the task, I believe that
an unforced, unformatted email list is where it's at. Or maybe
a newsgroup. All these other sophisticated "systems" are for
shit. Email groups also have a sophisticated structure, but
it is acquired during the process where the group becomes
self-governing, so it's far more effective.

In the 40's I used to go home with a college friend
to north-side Chicago.  She always insisted I go to
church with her because she sang in a choir that
was great with a fantastic director.  She made me sit
in the choir with her so I could appreciate that
director.  Imagine me, robed in the choir, pretending
to sing . . a sneak-in silent soprano, as I had not
rehearsed the music.

Anyway, as I remember, it was the Fourth Presbyterian
church.  I imagine it is still there.

Probably Librarian of Congress. However, I can tell you that
I was so stung by Dr Voigtlander's smug little announcement
that I did not rest until making "Grand Archivist". Amazing
title, "Grand Archivist", makes one proud. Now I have lost
interest like a primo hedge fund.

Reminds me of a friend's find: on its website, British Airways has an
extensive list of titles (Mr., Mrs., etc.) for passengers to select from as
they register, up to and including "His Holiness."  No "Her Holiness" yet,
but they do have His & Her Highnesses, at least.

That's one I was at, a few years ago--Good Friday, most
probably. It is a huge business, with separate morning
and evening choirs etc. I was of course not aware I was
going to land in there, but some old lady--must be your
friend, ha ha ha--starts talking to me, somewhere on Rush
street, and she asks me if I like classical music, and
what a coincidence, they were going to play Mozart there,
would you like to go. So I went in with her, feeling
like a complete idiot. It was a super-colossal rock show
featuring the Requiem mass. Anyway, I guess it made some
old lady feel good, so why not.

Hmm.  I thought perhaps it would be head
librarian of that great library in the sky,
The Book of Knowledge or whatever
it's called.

Well, it must be the kind of church people drag
other people to.  It was what I would call a
classy operation, very established.  Also, it was
long, narrow, high-ceilinged, and rather European-
looking in structure.

               - D. M.








looking more Catholic than Presbyterian in structure.

I've not thought of it as *MY* definition.  It's the only definition
I've ever heard (before today).  I thought the "baby boom" was defined
by the huge bulge in the population starting at the end of the war,
meaning that baby boomers had to face more competition for jobs etc.
than did my generation (or what I've always assumed was my generation --
before the boomers).

The first Baby Boomers turned 50 on January 1, 1996.
The 50th birthday of the oldest boomers was a media
event.

Who are these Baby Boomers? During the nineteen years
between 1946 and 1964, roughly 76 million babies were
born. Approximately 17 million more babies were born
than would have if fertility rates during this period equaled
those of the early 1940s.

Surely y'all remember the media hoopla around that time.  I got sick of

I got to master librarian at 192,440.  I think Tushar is lying about what
he attained.  Clyde got to 232,000 without getting past archivist.

According to that chart I missed the Greatest
Generation by one year.  Don't know what
generation I'm in then, although I think of
myself as Greatest Generation . . . or, more
correctly . . the Boomer Groomer Generation.

Lady, I made 280+, OK? This is how I know that simple entries such
as "entries" and "luddite" are not in their dictionary, while bizarre
non-words are. I was helped, I will not deny that, by a coworker. But
that was very late in the game, and I often scrounge on this coworker's
leftover crosswords so I couldn't refuse.

I'm still searching to see whether anybody outside of Words-L considers
me eligible for boomerism.  So far I'm coming up empty.  There just
doesn't seem to be any way to call somebody born before the baby boom
part of the boom.  I just tried googling for pre-boomer to see whether
anybody else liked that term that I think fits pretty well for those
born in the years not long before the boom and found that indeed they
have. This is from some kind of AARP research document:

from: http://research.aarp.org/econ/2000_03_ira_1.html

And here's an interesting division:

> Pre-Boomers 1934-1945
> Boomers 1946-1959
> Cuspers 1960-1968
> Busters 1969-1978
> Netsters 1979-1984+

from:
http://www.iaam.org/Facility_manager/Pages/2001_Mar_Apr/Conv_Center.htm

There were a good many others that use pre-boomer to mean a smallish
number of years, though some hits were for sources using it to be
anything pre-'46 -- as in stretching back for many, many years.

Pre-Boomers sounds like an authentic group to me.

I have two Boomer kids and one Cusper.

He is really a cusper being not only on the
cusp of the Boomers but also on the cusp
between Scorpio and Sagittarious.

I have grandchildren who are Busters and
who are Netsters, and Great Grandchildren who
are Netsters, at least until a new term is added.

The clickable map really is fun, though the results are confusing in a
way.  Like is the bottom part of the 2000 line on this one just a fatter
line than the others, or does it represent Indian population?

http://www.censusscope.org/us/s28/c143/chart_race.html

I was looking at that particular county to see whether the arrival of
the casinos had changed things.

Yeah.  He must be a wordy SOB.
For myself, I was perhaps stymied,
at a loss for words, as we say.

having a small hispanic population in '80 to having none or very, very
little in '90 to having more in '00.  It's not the more in '00 that's
surprising -- it's that I wonder why there was a decline between '80 and
'90.  I've seen this on lots of the maps.  This is the one for my home
county (Hinds):

There really is some interesting stuff on ebay.  I saw a listing for a
book about Lawrence of Arabia with a signed letter.  Thinking that maybe
it was signed by my RRB&SIL's buddy Charlton, I looked at it.  But no,
the letter was signed by the mere Lawrence himself.  You can get it
right now for only $2,000:

Sounds like a bargain.  Just don't have the need

I seem to have more fun selling than buying.
I think it's a great system and their self-regulating
feedback system was a stroke of genius.

Here's one I posted a couple of years ago. I've made it four times and it is
always excellent. -- AS


PINEAPPLE CRANBERRY RELISH


1-1/2 c. chopped pineapple
1-1/2 c. fresh cranberries
1 c. packed brown sugar
1/4 c. orange juice

Combine everything except pineapple in a medium saucepan; bring to boil,
stirring constantly.


Add pineapple, return to boil, stirring constantly. Reduce heat; cook and
stir 2 minutes or until slightly thickened. Can be served warm or cold.

What method do you use for receiving payment?  And isn't it a big bother
to have to package things and take them to the p.o. and mail them?  I
can understand that it would be worth the hassle for a really expensive
item, but what about little items?

Yes.  Did you find that buyers were hesitant to buy from you before you
established your selling reputation there?  Does anybody ever have a bad
reputation?  The ones I've looked at have all been good, but maybe the
rip-off artists sell once and then vanish.

I agree with that. I think I'll go with "dress to please" rather than "dress
to kill."

And if the two triangulate with "whorish," so be it.

Wow.  This is different.  Sounds good.

I recently used a recipe for thick pork chops
baked with a cranberry sauce that contained
barbecue sauce.  It was delicious.

I prefer Money Orders.  Will accept personal checks,
but hold shipment til check clears.  Don't like PayPal
too much because there's a fee per transaction, which
I don't need.

I don't mind the trip to the P. O. because it's only a
few blocks and I'm out and around every day anyway.

No, I didn't find a problem.  Yes, I have seen people
with negative feedback.  I have never had negative
feedback.  My positive feedback is wonderful reading
for any day when I'm feeling down.  It reads good!

It's not the trip to the p.o. that would bother me since I go to the
p.o. every day of my life except Sundays and football Saturdays.  It's
more the hassle of packaging the items -- and maybe of standing in line
at the p.o., depending on the luck of timing.

What's good for Halliburton is good for America.

Steve (nobody else, for that matter) never did answer my question
about Cheney being a Silent Gen-er. Steve's description of the generation
reminded me of our veep, the quintessential Crony Capitalist.

Packaging has not been a problem for me
because I am a compulsive box saver and
have one for every need.  Furthermore, for the
things I sometimes send Priority mail I use the
free P. O. boxes.  A roll of clear tape and I'm
done and outta here in a few minutes.  Oh, and
also the computer and printed labels.

PayPal is not a credit card. Visa, Mastercard, AmEx, Discover are credit
cards. Paypal will charge your credit card for you, but as you say, you
need a password and it's extra trouble.

You print address labels made on your computer?  Now that does sound
like a bother.  Why not just write the address on the brown paper?

My big problem with mailing packages in recent times is that I do my
grocery shopping at Wmart now, where there are no brown paper bags.
I've always depended on cutting up grocery bags to use as package
wrapping.

But those credit-card logos you mentioned did not mean I could just "use
my credit card."  (I've decided that the reason I might not have noticed
them earlier was that I've gotten so used to cluttered web sites with
advertising that I thought they were just advertising clutter if I saw
them at all.)  Anyway, all those logos meant was that I could click on
one of them to open a paypal account.  There was no way to use a credit
card without going through paypal.

Here's an example of what I'm talking about.  (I can't go back to an
example of the particular seller I bought from since that person has no
current offerings.  This one is the foxing book, which I'm not going to
buy.)

Note the credit-card logos.  Yet it's quite clear in the "payment info"
part of the description that credit cards aren't accepted.  Those cc
logos are there as part of paypal.

Not bad, either. They left me frozen meals for the weekend. I had roast
chicken lyonnaise, carrots, and mashed potatoes with gravy, plus angel
food cake yesterday. Today was chicken a la king with rice, a green
salad, bread and butter, and an apple. Tomorrow is baked ziti. They left
three frozen because of the storm that was predicted for tonight (which
didn't actually come), so that the drivers wouldn't have to go out
tomorrow.

This is great, Alyce.  Have you been able to finish most of them.  Can you
freeze the left overs or does Spike get 'em?

You no longer are supposed to wrap packages in brown paper or any other
color. UPS won't even accept such a package. With automated equipment
handling everything for the p.o. these days, the brown paper gets torn
and jams the machines, the address gets lost, the package goes astray,
and everyone is unhappy. Just put the address on the box.

That doesn't help me much since it would be a bit out of my way to run

Not my p.o.  They always compliment my good wrapping.

An Alzheimic drunk will sign damned near anything (especially if by doing
so, he can get enough money to buy another gun--or another drink).

Yes there was. You just should have told the vendor, "I want to use my
VISA," and given him/her the number. Quick, easy, no password. The
vendor's information was clear: "I take the following credit cards
(icons) PLUS PayPal." But you did not read it that way.

Yes, they are. Are you sure the other was that way too?
You can still look at the one you bought. Go to My Ebay and there you
can see your completed transaction and click the original listing. It
may be that I am wrong for the second time in a day. But when I sell on
EBay, the credit card logos show up in the same way, and I do not take
PayPal, so I thought that your auction was like mine.

But you also have to magic marker out Any Other Information that might
be on the box. Everything is so automated, you need to make sure you
x-out all the bar codes.

This is such a rotten page from the Federal Trade Commission. What's

If it's a policy of the Walmart here to provide paper bags, I suspect
that the one near you would have the same policy. I shopped at this
one for well over a year before realizing that they would provide
paper bags.

You're wrong, Alyce. Natalie's right. The Paypal stuff is definitely
confusing.

"This book called LESSONS ON THE EYE was written by Frank
L. Henderson, M.D. It has a copyright of 1903. It is a red hardcover
in good condition. A bit of yellowing on the pages. It has a name
written on the front cover: Steele Bailey, Jr.--Hasfutal (sp) a
college of medicine, Louisville KY, 1904. Buyer pays $2.00 shipping
and handling. Checks Ok, but item may be held until check clears. I

I know nothing at all about what UPS accepts.  I've never mailed
anything via UPS.  Wouldn't even know how to begin trying to find out
how to do that or where to go to do it.  I stick to the p.o., where I
always say, "Is this package wrapped ok?" and they always say,
"Beautifully."

I hope the vendor shows up again -- which will probably happen since I
think it said that this person (named Lemmee or something like that)
sells lots of stuff.  I guarantee you beyond a shadow of a doubt that
this vendor said paypal or that other thing that's like paypal or would
take a personal check though it might delay the order.  Those logos are
sitting there beside the paypal thing on the side of all of the ebay
stuff I've looked at.  What happens when you click on them is that you
enter your credit-card info and then are told that you are opening a
paypal account with that info.

You can make the type larger. But I agree that the turtle has to go.

Yes.

The original listing doesn't have the payment info anymore.  That part
is cut off with something about the completed transaction.  It does, of
course, have the paypal and credit-card-logo box to the right and this
part in the red place that all of them seem to have:

|PayPal, or see item description for payment methods accepted.

It was in the item description that it said "will accept personal check,
though it might slow down the sale."  (That's not intended as an exact
quotation, but that was the gist.)

I've gathered in my browsing around ebay this afternoon and tonight that
that paypal/cc box is standard.  The specific vendor's payment info is
in the description.

Here's what her payment info says (precisely what she said on the book I
ordered):

No, it's only Kroger and Foodmax here that offer that option.  Walmarts

I did.  That does not change the fact that my p.o. compliments my good

happen to mail one just last week -- beautifully wrapped in brown paper.

How did you find that???  I couldn't find that part again afer the sale
was complete.  And couldn't find that last part about the shipping for
other sales by Tina when I first looked since Tina had nothing up for
sale late this afternoon or whenever it was.  But now she does, and she
says the same thing she said on my item.

No.  We had 2-3 inches of snow overnight, followed by rain---so now we have
an inch or so of slush.  The roads are clear but it will be messy for the
next day or so, I imagine.

I was looking at the radar today via Wunderground---the "solid" stuff
stayed on the mainland, which is not unusual.  There still is something
going on that is affecting the ESPN satellite feed, but no others.  Whether
that is atmospheric or a technical glitch, I have no way of knowing.

May be.  I think most of them do know that I saved them back whenever it
was -- six or eight or so years ago when the university was trying to
take over the p.o.  If the university had succeeded, the real p.o.
would've had to close, meaning that the employees would've had to move.

The part about my packages being beautiful is perhaps just the polite
thing to say.  But I got the impression from Alyce and Karen that their
packages are not just not called beautiful but are tossed back at them.

Yes. To the best of my ability. It is really hard to get above 1000
calories, though. The dietician called me. She said I should eat Ben &
Jerry's or Haagen-Daz ice cream because it is higher in calories than
Sealtest et al.
My Scotch blood has trouble with paying as much for a pint as I can get
a half gallon for. I am toying with this idea.
She says not to eat peanut butter without a lot of jelly, lest I choke
(someone here said that, yes?). Something else makes you choke, too, but
I have forgotten what it was. Now I will eat it probably and <gasp,
gasp>. She reminded me, as if I needed reminding, that people on oxygen
use most of their energy just breathing, so I must work on calorie
count. Tricky, since I cannot accommodate large quantities or bulk. More
than one EnsurePlus a day gives me diarrhea. Have not checked out power
bars yet.

Though you did not ask, it blew through here. Is still going, as a
matter of fact. They had predicted two feet of snow, but instead we've
had rain, sleet, light snow, sleet, freezing rain, ice. It's been going
since yesterday morning and is to continue till noon tomorrow. I fear
ice storms because they can bring down power lines, which means I have
to use the oxy tanks instead of the machine. I lucked out, though. The
ice coating hit in Massachusetts and up north of here. Many lost power,
but not I (knocking on wood).

I repeat. If you go to "My Ebay" up at the top, you can pull up your
completed auction, which will show the link and you can go back to it
(they keep them on file for 2-3 weeks, I believe). You'll see something
like "Things I am bidding on or watching" and then below that "Things I
have bought" or words to that effect.

Cheney was born in 1941, certainly too young for World War II, but
not too old for Vietnam by my reckoning. As I said before, I have
some trouble with that Silent Generation definition. In any case,
Cheney had other things to do and managed to avoid service during the
Vietnam era. There are lots of other examples in the chickenhawk

Not tossed back at me, because I learned not to use paper several years
ago when they asked me not to.

What's your objection to PayPal? I do think it was a bit confusing at
first, but once I figured it out, I have found it quite convenient
for eBay purchases. I understand there is a transaction fee for
sellers, but that's true as well if you accept credit cards directly,
isn't it?

Cheney's own words on the subject were, "I had other priorities." He
didn't have to go to VietNam because he quickly got married and made

The snow we had yesterday was really very beautiful. It's only
about a millimeter, but while it was going it was great. It
hasn't been like this for many years. Same with yellowing
trees.

It's not just the fee. PayPal requires that you keep money on deposit
with them, lest a charge comes through that is no good. It protects
them. However, I think it is a ripoff to charge a fee and require a
deposit as well. Also, last year, some people have found that their
deposits and receipts had a way of disappearing, so anyone who does
volume business now knows to sweep their account daily, down to the
minimum deposit required. It was something of a scandal. Perhaps it is
fixed by now, but I want no part of it. However. I mostly hate PayPal
because it has confused the populace and people insist on using it for
payment, when they can just as easily (more easily) just give me their
card numbers. I have to pay $X a month for my credit card facility. If I
don't meet that amount with sales commissions/fees, I still have to pay
the whole amount. Therefore, I want as many direct credit card sales as
possible and don't want to have PayPal siphoning them off.

That's true. There's no implication that the packages are tossed back.

I can appreciate that, but what are the requirements for establishing
a merchant account in the first place? Might that not be more than
small-scale eBay sellers want to contend with?

I really should try selling some stuff.  If I do, I will be asking more
questions of those of you who have done it, like the thing about paypal
and its fee, how one sets that up, etc.  I don't mind taking the chance
on receiving a check, but some people might find that a bother.  And I
would think that most people would find getting something like a money
order a major bother.  One item that first got me into looking at ebay
years ago out of curiosity at the value is my old Toni doll.  I think we
talked about this before.  Apparently they are pretty valuable.

I didn't think masking tape was strong enough to serve such purposes.  I
always use either the clear package tape or that whitish package tape
with streaks (threads?) that make it strong.  I prefer the clear,
though, since it can cover the address.  In fact, I sometimes put it
over the address even if it doesn't need to be there to hold the package
together since that way I can be sure that the address doesn't wash off
in the rain or something.

Do you have anything listed now?  If so, what?  It would be interesting
to check and see whether the layout of the page for yours is different
from what I've seen so far.  It may be that it's been chance that I
happened to hit on ones that all looked the same re the box with paypal
and cc logos.

Oh, yes. Ebay sellers cannot afford it, and Paypal is a godsend for
them. But now everyone wants to use it to make purchases, which means
that I have lost sales because I won't accept it. In short, the average
shopper seems to think that PayPal is superior to just using the credit
card directly. Well, it is a matter of little import in the world
scheme. It is my (and some other booksellers') particular vexation,
that's all.

I don't know. Broccoli was in one of last week's meals, but it was
cooked and not very choke-causing, I think. Btw, that broccoli is
possibly the only thing so far that I did not like much. I do like
broccoli, but this was way overcooked and soggy.

I use PayPal in preference to using a credit card, because the money's

Why aren't you scanning while doing e-mail?

I do not know how to do two things at once. Especially scanning, which
is very difficult for me. I am not understanding what to do with the
scans when they are done. I can't get them into/onto my page so that
they will have URLs. It is to be hoped that Doug will help me with this
at Christmastime. I need a tutorial. Maybe something is wrong with my
Front Page. Neither Ken nor the IBM guy are able to get any pictures
from scan to my page. It is not just me. Remember--I am not
computer-smart like all of you people.

The money is in my PayPal account. In order to pay you, all I have to
do is click a button. If I use a credit card, I just have to click a
button, too, but I have to write a check later. PayPal is cleaner. Sorry!

Ah, so the cause of Alyce's vexation is not Paypal. It's
messed up customers working their incomprehensible logic.

My scanner saves everthing as .tif, so I have to open up each image
in a graphics program (I use PaintShop Pro) and save it--I save them
as .png files. I don't know if that's your problem or not.

I do know that every scanner software is different enough that I
wouldn't try to diagnose it over the Internet.

 A billionaire's ode to charity: $100 million to poetry journal
 --------------------

 By James Warren
 Tribune staff reporter

 November 17, 2002

 In the early 1970s, an unsolicited poem arrived in the Chicago office
of
Poetry, a small, influential but typically financially strapped literary
magazine. It was from a Mrs. Guernsey Van Riper Jr. of Indianapolis.

 Joe Parisi, the editor, thought it good but not up to the standards of
a
monthly known for running the works of titans of 20th Century poetry,
including William Butler Yeats, W.H. Auden and Dylan Thomas.

 Perhaps it was Parisi's handwritten rejection note. Or similar
rejection
notes he'd send over the years to the same woman, whom he has to this
day
never met or even spoken with. But, along the way, Mrs. Van Riper grew
to
have affection for the publication, the kind that may change the state
of
poetry in America.

 Van Riper, who later divorced and switched back to her maiden name of
Ruth
Lilly, is the last surviving great-grandchild of Col. Eli Lilly, founder
of
Eli Lilly and Co., the pharmaceutical giant. At 87, she is a very
low-profile, ailing billionaire-philanthropist who will now alter the
700-square-foot world of the four-person magazine housed in the basement
of
Chicago's Newberry Library.

 Lilly will stratospherically increase her own previous donations to
Poetry
by giving it well in excess of $100 million over the next 30 years, with
no
strings attached. The stunning development, the result of a new estate
plan
approved by an Indianapolis court and confirmed by lawyers, was
outlined,
though not fully detailed, by Parisi Friday at a dinner that the
magazine
held at the Arts Club of Chicago.

 "Yes, it does seem to have a couple of extra zeroes at the end of the
number," said Billy Collins, the U.S. poet laureate, who attended the
dinner. "It is probably an unprecedented gift to a literary publication.
It's a wonderful and good thing, unambiguously good, that Mrs. Lilly has
done."

 And, in a grand understatement inspired by the turn of events, Parisi
said
last week, "Ruth Lilly has ensured our existence into perpetuity."

 The monthly, whose paid circulation is a modest 10,000, was founded in
1912 by Harriet Monroe, a former art critic for the Chicago Tribune, and
its
storied past includes running the first major works of Carl Sandburg,
T.S.
Eliot and Wallace Stevens, as well as important efforts by Robert Frost,
Ezra Pound and William Carlos Williams. It has flirted with poverty,
frequently having less than $100 in its till, but it has never missed an
issue, and thus is believed to be the oldest continuously published
literary
publication.

 Lilly, who is childless, began writing poetry in the mid-1930s, said
her
attorney, Thomas Ewbank. She "did not take personally" the rejections
from
Poetry and proved to be a fan and loyal contributor, establishing in
1986
its annual Ruth Lilly Poetry Prize, which was initially $25,000 and has
grown to $100,000. She also has sponsored two $15,000 annual fellowships
via
the magazine, as well as a professorship in poetry at Indiana
University.

 Lilly has been no less an enigmatic presence in Indianapolis, donating
significant sums to academic and arts institutions, but in very
understated
ways.

 The most notice she's received, besides the various donations, came
amid
some controversy several years ago over millions of dollars spent on
European and Hawaiian travel for her and entourages of more than 30,
including 26 personal staff members. The money came from the
conservatorship
into which her estate was placed in 1981.

 But even knowledge that her estate exceeded $1 billion did not prepare
the
Chicago magazine for what was in the offing.

 Message from a lawyer

 Ewbank contacted Parisi last year, indicating that he had been
instructed
to devise a new estate plan for Lilly. Ewbank "suggested we obtain
counsel,
since the plan was so complicated," Parisi recalled. At that point,
Parisi
had no clear sense of the money involved, but he enlisted the services
of
estate specialist Richard Campbell.

 As the Chicago attorney explained, there are essentially six different
pots of funds created by what are known as charitable lead and remainder
trusts. For example, out of three trusts, there will be one annual
payment
to the Modern Poetry Association, which oversees the magazine as its
publisher, for as long as Lilly lives; a second annual payment over the
next
15 years; and a third annual payment over the next 30 years.

 With much of her wealth turning on Eli Lilly stock, which has had a
topsy-turvy year (dropping from the mid-$80s to the mid-$40s, closing
Friday
at $61.30), one can make only broad estimates of values. Ewbank, citing
his
client's personal preference, did not engage in estimates, leaving them
to
the magazine.

 But, by conservative assessments, the first payment, in January, will
be
about $10 million. And, over the course of the 30 years, a conservative
estimate is $100 million, but it could well be closer to $150 million,
Campbell said.

 Ewbank would only say, "There are people who can snatch defeat from the
jaw of victory. But assuming they have a good investment committee and
controls, all they need be is prudent and conservative and this will
provide
them the base they need."

 Such a sum would vault the association into the forefront of vaguely
similar, arts-related non-profits. By comparison, the total assets of
New
York's John Simon Guggenheim Memorial Foundation are $219 million.

 For sure, change will come swiftly once word breaks out about such good
fortune. Old donors may well be reluctant to maintain their level of
giving,
while fledgling poets and others may inundate the magazine with requests
for
money.

 With so much funding from one source, tax laws will require the Modern
Poetry Association to become a private operating foundation rather than
a
so-called 501c3, its current tax-exempt status conferred to qualifying
political and cultural institutions and interest groups. It is applying
to
change its name to the Poetry Foundation, but it will still be able to
receive tax-deductible contributions.

 High hopes for big bucks

 Deborah Cummins, president of the association's board of trustees, said
the group will seek to increase its various educational programs; devise
seminars for teachers nationwide to teach poetry (aimed at middle and
high
school teachers); expand grants and fellowships; and increase the
publication of books via its Poetry Press.

 And, no surprise, it wants to use the money to buy its own, far larger
and
separate headquarters in Chicago. Along the way, it also hopes to find
public space for thousands of books of poetry, which surpass those of
most
colleges and universities but are virtually all in storage.

 "The magazine, as our crown jewel, will obviously remain. Perhaps we
can
pay our authors more [whether you're a Pulitzer Prize winner or unknown
undergraduate, it pays $2 a line]. We aim to keep it the premier journal
devoted to poetry in the country," she said.

 As for long-term impact, Collins said, "The only thing I am sure of is
that when the news breaks, it will draw a lot of good attention to the
magazine and poetry itself.

 "It reminds me of my father, a New York businessman, not being too
impressed by my poetry writing. Then I got a $25,000 grant from the NEA
(National Endowment for the Arts), and he started taking poetry
seriously."

I don't know. I save mine as .jpgs and I have Adobe Photoshop. I never
have heard of a .png file till this moment. But I have to wait for Doug.
Whatever anyone might try to explain would not make sense to me, I know.

It is both. Paypal keeping (and borrowing) people's money and the
customers' preference. This preference, by the way, is unique to ebay
people in my experience. Never have I had a book customer ask to pay via
PayPal. I think that ebay may own paypal now. In any event, they
certainly steer people into it.

I don't know. I hope you are not leaving a large amount there. As I
said, money has been known to disappear from accounts.

It's not; he was convicted of illegally firing a gun and making
terrorist threats. I think firing a gun indoors is illegal
everywhere. (Except under specific conditions.)

I have heard of places (outside of town) where you can go shoot
computers. I doubt that shooting a TV set per se is illegal anywhere.

New test! New test!

Belief-o-Matic will tell you what religion you should be. I should be a
liberal Quaker first, but I have Neo-Pagan leanings.

Hmmm  My results say I should be a liberal Quaker which is, in fact, what I am.
Lowest on the list was Roman Catholic at 16% (seems a little high even at that)

What do you mean, neo-pagan leanings? Everybody is neo-pagan over
here. Read the description. Opinion on most things run the "whole
spectrum". Being neo-pagan means church-like places and biblical-
sounding doctrines give you allergies, and otherwise you have the
vaguest beliefs about everything. Also, you would rather not hear
about anybody else's beliefs unless they are equally vague. In
short, you want your gated community.

Karen,
 I love you.

 I couldn't even begin to describe the importance of Douglas adams around my
house.  My kids had a big party for his 42nd birthday (they wrote to him and invited
him, but never got  response).  There were 42 people invited, they rented all of the
Hitchiker's videos, and when I bought a big bag of gummi fish, they all walked
around with them sticking out of their ears.

Let's see, you have one of a diverse range of beliefs about
deity--though bet anything it will be a "personal God" (BTW, a
phrase I have never understood the meaning of). Your belief in
incarnations is one from a stunning variety, but very probably
that Jesus is an "older man on the same path", and a symbolic
incarnation, whatever that means. And it's not clear what God
does but whatever it is it is not against the laws of physics.
It is unimportant to you why evil exists, however you have a
great interest in alleviating it, and you believe it can be

I rented Andrei Rublyov this weekend.  What an incredible film.  A sweeping-epic-
cast-of-thousands type thing,  The subtitles are poorly done, but I understand just
enough Russian that their inadequacy was actually ideally suited to my level - just a
little help when the dialogue was going by too quickly.  It was great having my
housemate Vova around. He didn't watch it this time,  but of course had seen it
many times before. He had all kinds of stories about the actors and what it meant, in
the context of 1969, for those particular actors to be in those particular roles.  The
film was banned when it first was released and not made available until after
perestroika.

What does this mean?  What money is already where?  I can't see how
using paypal is any different from using a credit card except for having
an extra layer.

How can one have money in a paypal account?  Not that I want to have
money in it since I don't see the point.  I was just curious about how
it works.  Afaik, my paypal account is simply a <tube> between my Visa
card and the vendor.  And, fwiw, I never write checks to Visa.  Visa
whisks the money from my bank account at the monthly whisking time.

That seems strange to me.  I would, of course, like to see firing a gun
anywhere made illegal, but it seems to me that if guns are legal, it
should be legal for a man to shoot his own tv set.

I still see no point in putting money into paypal.  If having a paypal
account had required keeping money sitting there, I probably would not
have opened mine.  I didn't even see anything in the directions about
the option of leaving money sitting there.  As for preferences of paypal
or a credit card, I would prefer using the credit card since I see no
point in extra layers in a process.  But I thought that most ebay
sellers were ordinary individuals, not stores with credit-card
facilities.  I don't mind at all using my credit-card in online
transactions.  I do it regularly.  But I don't think I'd like sending my
cc number via ordinary e-mail to some ordinary stranger who said he/she
could somehow use it.

Wouldn't the laws about in-town shooting vary by town?  There isn't any
kind of national law forbidding in-town shooting, is there?

How can one use PayPal without having money in a PayPal account?

FWIW, I never use a credit card to put money in a PayPal account--I

I am not going to <discuss> this since I have promised not to discuss
religion on the list, but I did find it interesting that this test for
me popped up exactly the same result as a different one we did a while
back:

1. Unitarian Universalism (100%)

(My #2 was Liberal Quakers at 92%.)  I can't remember the #2 on that
earlier test.  I do remember that I was 100% Unitarian Universalist on
it also.

        Most people don't realize how far a bullet will travel.   You
may think you're shooting your TV set, but in a densely
populated area, you can end up shooting somebody further
along the trajectory.

The way I've done it twice now.  My first paypal experience was with
Pete's paypal device for our Evelyn scholarship.  My second experience
was yesterday for buying the book on ebay.  I got e-mail from the vendor
thanking me for my prompt payment and saying that the book would be
mailed today.

In spite of the term, I'm not convinced that there is universal
agreement on what is common sensible.

What you did was put money in a PayPal account and then empty that
account. Some people do this and simply don't empty the account.

    Discharging a firearm - or even BB gun - inside city limits is pretty much
universal.  To this I'd add negligent discharge of a firearm, and if any
minors were present, child abuse.  If the bullet[s] penetrated a wall I'd
stick on several counts of reckless endangerment to boot.  Just the kind of
guy we want adding to the genepool.
    In the benighted GMA it is against the law to discharge a firearm within
1/4 mile of a building, even if its the last cabin standing out in Dead Man's
Fang.

    "Common sense" is about as common as rocking-horse turds.

Sort of like deer hunters or people shooting cans or bottles or skeet or
whatever.  My only first-hand knowledge of indoor shooting (in a city,
at that) was that crazy night that I think I've told about before.
Somehow a rat had gotten into our house.  Our guess after the panic
subsided was that it was probably the kind of rat that likes firewood
and that had slipped in the back door that the dogs opened and closed
(not a doggy-door -- a regular door -- that's another funny story --
about the surprised look on somebody's face when my mother said after a
door opened and closed, "oh that's just the dog coming in" and about how
dumb Trouble was, as opposed to his parents, Sam and Dumplin).  But back
to the gun story.  Probably the funniest part is the look on my parents'
face when they saw my brother wielding a golf club and me wielding a
tennis racket running up the hall.  We were adultish at the time -- my
brother was in med school and was in his room studying.  I was in
college and for some reason was at home.  I heard a rattling of paper in
the trash can in my bedroom fairly late one night.  My parents had
already gone to bed, so I went and told my brother about it.  We
investigated and found a rat.  Med student that he was, my brother said
that we should guard our feet/legs, so he put on hunting boots and I put
on snow boots.  After covering our feet, he grabbed a golf club and me a
tennis racket.  Our parents woke up and looked into the hall just as he
and I were racing up the hall wearing boots and wielding golf club and
tennis racket.  It really was pretty funny.  But finally getting to the
gun part:  We failed to do whatever it was we were going to do to the
rat with our golf club and tennis racket; the rat hunkered up in my
brother's bathroom; he went to his gun rack, took a shotgun, and shot
the rat.  There was some wall damage that had to be repaired, iirc.  But
only the rat suffered death or injury.  I have no memory of what was
done with the carcass.  I was not personally involved in that part.

But the putting in and the emptying were simultaneous, afaik.  I
wouldn't know how to put money into a paypal account if not for
completion of a purchase underway.  Iow, I have no idea how one would
insert money to a paypal account to sit there waiting to be used.  As
I've already said, I don't really want to know since I don't see any
point in it.  But I do find it interesting that one can do that.

To bet my life on the fact that it depends on the kind of gun/bullet and
the fatness of the tv set?  Sure.  I can't imagine that it would not
depend on those factors.  I'm perfectly willing to bet my life on that
assertion.

When did this happen?  I'm pretty sure that bb guns and pellet rifles
were totally legal in Jackson in my childhood since my parents and most
of the neighbor parents were law-abiding types.  It may be that the
shooting of mistletoe out of trees for xmas was illegal, using usually
4-12s, iirc.  But it was common practice.  I think the people who had
30-30s were more careful about where they used them.  But certainly the
bb guns and pellet rifles were in backyards with parents' blessings.

    Oh...my...God.  Talk about overkill!  How was your brother's hearing?  I
don't even want to think about touching a shotgun off in a bathroom.  I
wouldn't even do it with someone else's arms. <shudder>  No wonder you're a

    Yes, but this was long ago and far away, when things like harmless childhood
activities and developing a keen eye through traditional childhood activities had
yet to be demonized.  Well, I suppose that making your own tracers with a brick and
Blue Diamond matches might be questionable, but we always made sure that the grass
was wet.

Hi, all. NYC was cool, rainy - then REALLY rainy - but wonderful, as
always.

If you like deli sandwiches and beef, go to Frank's on 9th Ave just below
W. 20th St. and have a roast beef hoagie. Fantastic! Best deli sandwich I
have ever eaten. I had one Friday and one Saturday.

Hallelujah, Sister! It is great. I mean it.

I'm out in schools conducting workshops about 10 days a month (running
around in official cars) and the rest, just chillin' in the office doing a
fair amount of record-keeping, and follow-up for our "caseload" of students.

The cow orkers are congenial, the boss is cool, and the stress is nil.

The tide have *turned*!

AS, Free at last!

Actually, I think he fired the gun in his bedroom, pointed toward the
rat in the bathroom.  Like he wasn't actually standing in the little
bathroom when firing.  Re his hearing, it seems to be fine in spite of
the xmas-day rupturing of an eardrum by a firecracker tossed too close
to his ear.

These are trips down memory lane.  The Gilfoys, our next-door neighbors,
were always up well before dawn on xmas morning, shooting their xmas
firecrackers, which was our heralding in of the day -- our signal that
it was time to get up and run to see what Santa Claus had brought.

I find it way weird to think that bb guns and pellet rifles were
illegal.  Old Fart Alert:  I think it may be that you're too young to
remember those <good old days>.  Every little boy had a bb gun and most
quickly graduated to pellet rifles.  My arm still cringes in memory of
being shot with bb's.

Hmm.  I fear that I'm getting the gun names confused.  4-12 doesn't
sound right.  4-10 sort of does.  But 12 belongs somewhere.  Is it
12-guage?  Little boys had bb guns and then pellet rifles.  When they
got to be 12 or so, they moved up.  I guess they probably moved up first
to a 20-20, but 20-20s were considered very wimpy.  I don't think most
boys admitted any 20-20 activity.  The normal gun for a boy of 12 or 13
was something that had a number -- 4-10, 12-gauge?  Both of those sound
familiar.  It was something like that.  A 30-30 was revered as super
cool.

Re the shooting of vegetation, I thought you were saying that most
municipalities forbade the shooting of guns at all.  It may indeed have
been illegal to shoot mistletoe in Jackson in my teenaged years, but I
don't think the police were running around seeking violators.

Why didn't you shoot back? In rural TX all children had bb guns, not just
little boys. Also rifles (though I do not recall <pellet rifles>,
whatever those are) and shotguns at later ages. How could you go
hunting otherwise?

In Mississippi we were very gender-delineated.  Only boys had bb guns
and pellet rifles.  Little girls didn't have them, nor did girls go
hunting.  It wasn't considered <ladylike> to do things like that, at
least until fox hunting became a <thing>.  Girls did take riflery at
camp and sometimes did things like shooting bottles or cans or skeets,
though anything other than camp riflery was frowned upon (until fox
hunting, which seemed to be led by women).

No.  We had the pesky baptists from Kansas  here doing anti gay
demonstrations on Saturday, however. They were mostly ignored.

I think a personal God walks with you and talks with you and and is
probably your best friend.  As opposed to some huge boundless force of
nature who could never hang out with you at a mall.

I see. It must be the "as opposed to" which fooled me, due to my
doctrinaire upbringing.

What's there in this to bray about? Physicists are humble people
who try their best.

I think there has to be a theory, sooner or later the question
will come up.

A while ago, maybe a few years ago, I wrote about seeing somebody throw a
cell phone into the Bay, pissed.  I really liked that.

Now I learn that my new cow orker has thrown away two wedding rings (same
husband, just two different rings).  She gets mad and throws away her
ring.  She's only maybe 30 years old and no kind of diva as far as I can
tell.  She's Korean born, actually.  She says to me, don't get me wrong,
we don't spend a lot of money on rings, maybe $40.  But I'm not going to
get another one, I'd just throw it away again when I get mad.

I think I'm a depression baby and silent generation Unitarian
Universalist.  This behavior is so shocking and attractive to me!

I wish that Frank's had been there when I lived at 20th & Ninth across
from the seminary. There was no food available within blocks except at a
small bodega. Maybe that is now Frank's. There were no other stores in
the block downtown from 20th except that one.

another incoming wave of work, and I'll likely be setting nomail again on
Wednesday afternoon.

Hmm, something Clyde and I might agree on, but consider this ... as more
women develop the ability to dunk, isn't the style of play going to
change?  There is more emphasis on moving without the ball, setting
screens, and finding the open player in the womens' game in part because
the above-the-rim stuff, such as the alley-oop, isn't yet an option.  The
stuff that makes up your typical highlight film is mostly the defensive
breakdowns, and defensive breakdowns happen during the womens' games.

Depends on whose analysis you use, which might be a reason not to take a
lot of it too seriously.  Anway, Strauss and Howe have the following
approximate breaks. (Fourth Turning 59)
Lost (1880-1900) despised as youngsters, sound familiar?
G.I. (1901-1924) the demand for increased social order began with the
children, again, sound familiar?  Serious coming of age challenges
Silent (1925-1942) sheltered children, came of age after the victory
Boom (1943-1960) victory babies
Thirteenth (1961-1981) their parents invented the midlife crisis
Millennial (1981-2002??) again, the demand for increased social order
began with the children.  Possible Citizen Soldiers for the global war to
come?
New Artists (??)

Strauss and Howe's reasoning is that attitudes toward children begin to
change before the national mood changes.  Thus, the 1943 babies are
victory babies, who will have no memory of the Depression and war.  Where
Strauss and Howe go over the top is attempting to define boundaries, e.g.
at p. 66 of _Fourth Turning_ is "A one minute difference did in fact
separate the new-born babies of December 31, 1942, from those of January
1, 1943 -- a critical tick of the clock that later helped ignite the fiery
college class of 1965 and create a lasting cohort boundary between the
Silent and the Boomers."  I'm not so persuaded of that -- it was a
coalition of the later Silent and early Boomers that set the tone for the
youth culture of the times.  And the attempts that some people make on the
Fourth Turning discussion boards to identify generational boundaries get
downright goofy ... is the trigger for new attitudes toward children
(protective rather than optimistic) the 2000 election, or the bombings on
the east coast, or has the real shock yet to come?

Lancaster and Stillman suggest some different boundaries.  They aggregate
the GIs and Silents as "Traditionalists" (born 1900-1945), Boomers
(1946-1964), Thirteeners (they use "X") (born 1965-1980), and Millennials
(1981-2000), and caution that the boundaries are guidelines.

Lancaster and Stillman use the Cusper terminology to refer to individuals
who might understand the modal mindset of more than one cohort.  The
listing below identifies one such cohort, is it Boomer or Thirteener?
There is another such cohort, is it G.I. or Silent?  (Jimmy Carter was no
Jack Kennedy).  More recently, where do the Thirteeners become
Millennials?  Sometime, the tattoos, and body mutilation, and backwards
ballcaps will go out of fashion.  But there's still a transition in
progress.

The way he's cleaning up on Social Security he damn well better be happy.

Somebody did notice the contrast between Governor Bush and Vice President
Gore's debates, and that between the Defense Secretary and Senator
Lieberman ... something about better behaved older brothers.

Thanks for all the nice hellos :)  I'm doing great. Down 128.5 lbs (every
ounce counts) now. I'm spending more time outside...less time on the
computer...and the gazillions of unread posts was just another undone thing
on my mind. It was easier to unsub for awhile than to watch the numbers
soar.

Just got back from a week in LA with family...taking real estate exam power
tests in prep for the real thing. The bridal shower and wedding for my
friend went well (Cait & Chris Boyce). I'm psyching myself up for going back
to work early next year...learning more about commercial real estate prop
mgmt...that will be some adjustment, for sure. I haven't worked in over 4
yrs (fulltime, that is).

Made enchiladas today for my first time (chicken, onion, cilantro & olives
with a green chili sauce).

I wanted to drop in for a bit and see what all everyone's up to.

My dad spent over $10k in court costs to help out the son of one of his
nieces. He'd shot out his college dorm window with a bb gun at a fellow
student. She wasn't anyone he knew ... it was a stupid, stupid and reckless
thing....but it had big ramifications and he had no real family support so
he approached my dad. I wasn't sure my dad would help him out, but he did.
The boy's now several years older and it seems as if that kind of scary,
thoughtless behavior is behind him.

I must have missed the beginning of the season or something 'cause I

There were noe shooting stars when I walked down the streets this morning ion my way to the zendo at 5:30 AM. This may be because this was yet another false alarm here in Norway (there was a leonid flop her last year) or it may be because there is too much light along the streets where I walked and I didn't really have time to stopp and wait and watch for many minutes. But there was an almost full moon setting up along the river, and by the end of the morning meditation, at 7:30 when the eastern sky was slightly red/orange ("rhododaktylos eos" (rosenfingered dawn), to quote Homer) Venus was a clear brilliant point of light. This was a beatiful winter morning, about -3C and clear weather.

        I'd agree that my daughter's generation is over-protected in
some ways -- she certainly doesn't have the freedoms I had
-- what kid could with child abductions on TV all the time.
  Yet, at the infamous "16 in Webster Groves" -- my students
enjoy freedoms I find astonishing sometimes.  I don't see
them as very New World Orderish, however.

He's having a <nervous breakdown>.  I think Stephen has been pretty
patient with him.  I mean it's just <not done> for a hs teacher to
vanish to Florida for a week without telling anybody he's leaving.  His
in-class tantrum last night was sort of the last straw.  But note that
Stephen still wasn't sure whether to fire him.

Speaking of BP, watch starting next week for a Starkville High School
graduate.  I think he's supposed to be in it for two or three weeks.
The problem is I don't know how we're supposed to know he's the person
from Starkville since I don't think he will be labeled as such.  Some
people at lunch yesterday who know him (because they have children
around his age) were talking about it.  His real-life name is Ben Lang.
Wish I knew his BP name.  I asked them what he looks like so I can watch
for him next week, and they said something like "short and sort of
cherubic."  Maybe they said "cute" and I translated that to "cherubic."
I asked whether he was black or white, and they said white.  So watch
next Monday night for a white male of shortish stature and perhaps
cherubic face.

Aha!  This is the first outside-of-Words-L suggestion I've seen that
would put me with the boomers.  The "came of age" part does make sense.

Yes!  This no doubt explains why my attitudes are different from those
of my RRB.  He was college class of '61; I was college class of '65.

That 1946-64, or at least the '46 part, is what I'm convinced now you'll
see at least 99% of the time.  It's what I had thought all my life, and
my web-poking the other night poured out tons and tons of confirmations

were, not of what <significance> it might have.

For me it was Unitarian Unversialism first (100%) followed by Mahayana Buddhism (96%). This might not be so wrong for zen ... But how I got Christian Science as a number three is past my understanding.

What makes me think "pre-boomer" is a better term for people around my
birth time -- better than "boomer" -- is that I had thought one of the
main points in talking about "the baby boom" was in talking about the
effects of a population bulge of that kind -- its effects on the work
force, its effects on social security, etc.  Lumping us pre-boomers with
the real boomers might make some sense in that we were still pretty new
in the work force when the boomers started joining, we will be fairly
recent beginners of social security when the boomers join us, etc.  But
still we're a jump ahead of them.

Is that Lauren?  Somebody at lunch asked that question also.  I don't
know where she is -- hadn't really thought about her until she came up
at lunch yesterday.  I do remember something near the end of last season
that suggested the departure of the hook lady -- something about how
since she and Guber had broken up she didn't belong there anymore.  Did
Jeremy graduate?  I was thinking he was just a junior last year, but
maybe that was year before last.  I quit watching it late last season
when it got boring.  And I didn't watch more than the first few minutes
of the first one (I think first one) this season.  Then the second one
got funny again.  Last night's wasn't very good, imho.  The show isn't
good enough to make it on being a serious show about a high school.
It's got to have funny parts like the Marla-Whatshisname sex talk and of
course Lipshits, though Lipshits was overdoing it a bit last week in
talking about why he wanted to be a judge -- what went on under the
robes, etc.

Actually I saw it in Norway in January (I believe) 1980 - just a few weeks after I came back from a visit to Moscow and (then) Leningrad. And yes, it is sweeping, large, enormous.

This is why I insist that Texas is not the south.

Perhaps, but it's a long way away.  Right now there are one or two women

I often wonder how much of this "analysis" is done after the authors have
settled on their conclusions.

I'm not sure I agree with them on the Silent and Boomer effects.  As one
born in 1938, who does not remember the Depression and only vaguely
remembers WWII, I was yet one of the younger voters who voted
overwhelmingly for JFK and saw in him a sort of promise that had not been
there during the DDE years.  We didn't need a "fiery class of [whenever]"
to get the ball rolling; in fact that fiery class probably became so
because LBJ and others dropped the ball.

As you say, talking about a "critical tick of the clock" and trying to
fine-tune boundaries gets downright goofy.

Did they paint him into a corner, or did he decide to pursue other

    Hah.  Forget taking your gun to school the first day of hunting season, Dennis
the Menace would be arrested now for that slingshot in his back pocket.
    And Natalie, I'm sorry, but in my milieu any lad who fired BBs at a child had his
Red Ryder ceremoniously broken across the nearest tree by the nearest adult, to be
followed by a parental ass-whipping and other punishments to be decided upon later.
    Oh, I'm sorry.  That's considered abuse these days, isn't it?

I just mean, it's been over 10 years since (one of?) James Coburn's

Yes. Maybe I will tell it.
Yes, I have decided that I will.

Introduction
Long, long ago, a summer stock theatre opened in Hinsdale (IL) at the
time I graduated from high school. I worked as an apprentice that summer
(1951), and subsequently rose in the ranks and was assistant designer by
the time I graduated from college. Time passed. In 1959 I started to do
PR and the theatre used my services.

Eddie Bracken came to town to be in a show at the theatre. On opening
night, I (dressed in a brand new white dress) went to the theatre to do
whatever you do on opening nights. I walked down a dark sidewalk to the
stage door.
As it happened, there were electrical problems, and the electricians had
opened the manhole in this sidewalk to go into the bowels of the air
conditioning system. They had stationed an apprentice girl by the hole
so that she could ward people off. She didn't. She said, "Hi, Alyce," as
I fell into the rabbit hole. There were metal edges, and my right leg
scraped along and the shin was sliced to the bone. Blood was everywhere.
People pulled me up from the hole and stood around dithering. Nearly
curtain time! What an inconvenience. And then, Eddie Bracken, hearing
the rumpus, came running out. He saw in a flash that I was not in good
condition and took charge. He got people to carry me to his rental car
and he himself drove me to the emergency room. I don't know what
happened with the car and all the blood. I never learned if he had to
pay, or the theatre paid, or what. Anyway, he went back to the theatre,
the show went on about a half hour late, and I sued the theatre and got
$1500.00 for my medical bills. Could have used more money for pain and
suffering. My, it was painful and I lost a couple of weeks of work
before I could walk. Also lost the account, of course, given that I was
suing.

PS: The white dress was a goner.

It's very different now - there are many stores, including restaurants. On
the corner of 9th Ave. and W. 20th, next to Frank's, is a really wicked
patisserie. I indulged in 2 almond croissants.

She was one of the blonde bimbos, wasn't she? The one last night is a
brunette.

Hmmmph  I didn't get thousands of pilgrims at my house when I discovered the
image of Andrew Jackson burned into a paper plate.

I recall vividly when it occurred to me that not everyone in these united
states studies Texas history in an early grade. It was weird to think of

one early grade we made a huge salt map of Texas - to show topography -
did they do that in NJ? Or MIssissippi?

No what?  He's not having a nervous breakdown?  People having nervous
breakdowns don't act <out of character>?

Your mail is acting Karenish -- I'm seeing it before BB's original.
Yes, Montana is part of who BB is (I don't know about the naive, poor
little girl part).  But in answer to BB's question, yes and no.  If one
wants to renounce one's state or region, one can do that.  But a little
piece of it is surely stuck somewhere within that person.  It's hard for
me to answer the question because it's impossible for me to imagine
wanting to <escape> my home place.  I might decide to live somewhere
else (that's not likely at this stage in my life for various reasons, so
perhaps I should say I might have), but Mississippi would still be part
of me.  Check out Central Park on a certain Saturday in June.  Something
like the third Saturday, I think.  Mississippians living in NYC have
been meeting there for many years now on that day to declare themselves
still Mississippians.  They consider it part of <who they are>.

I realize, of course, that people who moved around constantly from birth
on are less likely to have a <sense of place>.

No, we didn't make a huge salt map of Texas.  :-)  But we certainly
studied Mississippi history, geography, etc.  My Daddy had to do even
more than I did in school re Mississippi geography.  Even in his
eighties he could still spiel off all eighty-two county seats plus
rivers they were on or near.  I learned all the county seats at some
point but don't think we had to attach rivers.  Hmm.  Wonder what river
was associated with Starkville.  We don't have a river.

        I don't understand why anybody outside Texas would be
creating topographical maps of Texas.  Most people learn
their own state history.

Note that I said "living in the South."  Those who hated the situation
they were born in would presumably move.  I'm talking about adults now.
It would be hard for a child or even a teenager to just up and move.  It
is not hard for an adult to move.  I can't imagine living somewhere I
hated.  It's very hard to move to another country, but it is quite easy
to move to another state within the USA.  There are no shackles binding
one to one's birth state, afaik.

I can't count all the flaws in this. Let's just call it nonsense

    This is a Southron trait.  During the Recent Unpleasantness the Union named

nearest geographical feature.
    Hmmmm.  Indiana history was mostly geographical, Texas history was mostly
'historical', and Arizona history was almost entirely political.  Interesting.
I never thought of that before.

>          - D. M.

O.k.   I doubt I can top Alyce.  But here's some mildly interesting stories
about past Thanksgivings that Clyde and I spent with our friends Tom and
Holly.  Clyde and Tom were graduate students together 30+ years ago at the
University of Wisconsin.   All four of us are from Wisconsin.  Clyde and I
spent many years traveling up I-75 from Oak Ridge, Tennessee to Oxford,
Ohio, where Tom is a zoology professor, to spend the holiday together.

One Thanksgiving, Tom and Clyde, at the invitation of their neighbor,
cornered, caught, beheaded, and de-feathered a flock of domestic ducks that
had been swimming on the neighbor's small pond.  Holly and I took Katie,
their daughter, and left the premises.  It was a blood bath.  And Clyde was
appalled at the lack of any common woodsmen skills possessed by Tom.  Clyde
had to take the ax from him so as to convey a swifter death to the poor fowl.

One year Tom invited his "colleague" (that's what he insists on calling
Clyde) to join him in sawing down a dead tree on the property so as to make
it into firewood.   Sadly, it's is Tom who loves to think of himself as a
pioneer living by his own skills off the fat of the land while it is Clyde,
having been raised out in the countryside of Northern Wisconsin, who as the
actual skills but no desire to work that hard because he had to do it to
survive as a child.  Tom was raised in the city.  Well, that year Tom
managed to get the chain saw tightly wedged in the tree.  I can't remember
if they ever got the tree down or not.  Another year Tom managed to get a
tractor deeply stuck in a muddy field, until a neighboring farmer took pity
on him and pulled it out.

One year things were going slowly and Holly commented that there was
nothing to write on the card that year.   But on our way home from dinner
at a nice Cincinnati restaurant, a car made a left turn right in front of
Tom and Clyde ended up in the hospital for chest x-rays.   Clyde had a
bruised sternum and bruised ribs.  The nurse told him that, as bad as he
felt right then, he would feel worse the next day.  And he did.  Holly and
I also had bruised ribs.  Tom had the air bag and escaped the accident
totally unscathed except for the great sympathy he felt for his
"colleague".  We had to stay longer that year because we weren't sure Clyde
would be able to sit for five hours in the car.  To pass the time, Holly
and I went to see "Addam's Family Values" and laughed so hard that our ribs
hurt even worse.

One year we headed home in gently falling snow, thinking that it would
surely let up as we traveled south.  But it got worse.  By the time we got
to Lexington, Kentucky there was talk of closing I-75 over the mountains on
the KY/TN border.  We spent the night in a Lexington Holiday Inn along with
many other travelers.  The restaurant ran out of food.

Another year Holly and I bought pretty new dresses and she made a
reservation for dinner at Cincinnati's only Five Star restaurant, The
Masionette.  But, alas, there was a huge snow storm and there was no way to
travel into the city.  We ate at a small restaurant nearer to Oxford
instead.  Even at that Clyde and Tom got stuck in the baby-sitter's
driveway when they took her home.  Then the electricity went out and all
five of us slept downstairs in front of the fireplace.  Katie was in her
play pen and was one of those toddlers who rocked the whole play pen,
rhythmically through much of the night.  Tom was supposed to add more wood
to the fire in the night.  But he got tired of the whole thing, grabbed a
bunch of blankets, abandoned the rest of us, and went to sleep upstairs.

The holiday was often a marriage encounter weekend for Clyde and I because
after we waved goodbye and backed out of their driveway we would look at
each other and be so very, very glad that we were married to each other and
not to one of them.  We'd also compare notes about what we had learned on
the side from either Tom and Holly.  Often we were horrified at how much
money they has spent on the latest home renovation:  a detached double
garage, a sun room addition, a partition of the master bedroom, a fireplace
insert, a total kitchen redo, window quilts for the entire house, etc., etc.

But through the years, we were like family and remain good friends.  They
spent the 4th of July here in Maine with us this past year.  We might go
visit them at their cottage in northern Wisconsin next fall.

Rockefeller built all these lovely carriage roads in Acadia National
Park.  Perhaps you meant recently, though.    Having a conscience isn't
only about good works.  "First, do no harm."

    So, meaning well excuses all else?  (Oh, and that's the Hippocratic
Oath, BTW - does that cover harming unborn children?)

Thank you for the stories, Bonnie.

Now, here is my story.

Because I am still having horrific headaches, since
my "face plant" fall in early October, I had a CAT
Scan last Thursday.

I was out of town for a couple of days so
I did not get the report until today.

It's the age-old story.  They looked at the pictures
of the inside of my head and found nothing there.

This is so in keeping with the kinds of parts
he played.  Maybe he was just like that.
He was always the best friend of the star of
the show, always looking out for him, fixing up
his troubles with girls, etc.

What in that has anything to do with "meaning well"?  I was talking about
not hurting the environment or the little guy or whatever.  "Meaning well"
excuses nothing.   The result of one's action is how that action is
ethically judged.

Sure.  Unless the whole point is doing away with them.  And even then one
could do it without causing undo suffering.

who eat too much?

AFAIK, both. From the Boston Herald: "Venice, which, rests on millions
of wooden piles pounded into marshy ground, has sunk by about seven
centimeters a century for the past 1,000 years. The new report says
that it has subsided 24 centimeters in just the past 100 years."

LOL.

It's a rule nowadays that any given cabbie will ask me if the
economy is beginning to look up. Why? Because I am a software
guy, or something, so of course I would know ... For instance,
this was my diplomatic answer yesterday: "I think your cousin's
case is different, because the AS400 world would not see the
same wild swings that we in internet land see". Pretty cool,
huh. The truth is I know sod-all about AS400s.

It was a wrong move anyway, because then he asks me how long
I have been here, and boy, I must be rich. Have I put away
maybe a couple hundred thousand dollars?

I stared at him. What the hell does he think I am? He asks,
maybe you hold some real estate, then? You must have something,
after 11 years!

That's when I realized it--this man's been driving a taxi,
relentlessly for 17 years, without break, every day. If you
do that and do nothing else and clip all your coupons--maybe
you DO succeed in "putting away" those dollars.

And it's great that a taxi driver is able to live and have
a family in Oak Park (a daughter, going by his endearing and
pointed questions) but it occurred to me that it's a SAD damn
thing to lead this dull joyless workaholic existence, working
and saving and prudent-investing your entire life.

And finally, the saddest thing is, there are a lot of people,
really lots and lots of people, who praise to high heaven this
joyless behavior of "good immigrants".

  I guess I understand a little.  I am first generation American and have
lived longer now  in California than Montana but I don't feel an allegiance
to any particular state.  I just happened to be born in the USA and am not
trying to pass as anything.  I'm also not ashamed of anything or trying to
be something that I am not.  I have no desire to be anyone else or live
anyplace else.

It felt good to attend a Fjeldheim family reunion in Montana, however.  I
don't want to move back there though.

What makes you think that it is only immigrants who lead this sad Sisyphean

The joy-free mouse-in-a-maze lifestyle as you described it, is the preferred
lifestyle of many. I have one friend (currently using his vacation time to
visit a remote village in China...doing feasability work on a proposed
battery factory he wants to open) whose regular emails to me always include
how many hours he worked that day (never less than 12). It's the immigrant
thing plus the fear of losing his job...he has endless tales of fellow tech
employees (he's in the satellite industry) who are laid off with nothing in
sight. He wouldn't know what to do with himself if he weren't working. I
think it's his natural state.

My dad would be one of those who admire hard-working immigrants. He's a
hard-worker. And I'll admit I admire that kind of purposeful work. It's
self-imposed and the accomplishment seems to make the effort worthwhile.
Different strokes....

I bought a rabbit to cook with a friend. It's in the freezer. Any simple
recipes for rabbit. We might even just grill it. But if any of you have a
tasty, simple recipe, I'd love to see it.

Yes.  It's been sinking for years.  Didn't I read something not long ago
about a plan to try to save it?

Actually, the ducks were mallards, not domesticated ducks, who had found a
good home on the neighbor's pond.  We herded them into the garage, then
retrieved and dispatched them---as Bonnie notes, with less than total
efficiency.  One problem (over and above Tom's deficiencies as a headsman)
was that I had a fairly severe case of tendonitis in one shoulder, which
made any sudden or vigorous moves very tenable.

Further, Tom had set up his outdoor, propane-fired cooker to heat the water
so that we could scald and pluck the ducks.  I don't remember why, but the
water never got hot enough--but we endeavored to pluck the ducks
anyway.  The whole scene must have looked like a very bad remake of Texas
Chainsaw Massacre.

Ah, those were the days...

The print looked totally normal on my screen.  I didn't read the whole
thing -- just enough to know that it was about Project Moses, which I've
read about before.  I followed the url out of curiosity at what teeny
tiny print looked like.  Didn't look the least bit teeny tiny to me.

A French woman made this once, it was delicious, but I don't have crucial
details.  So I'll just say:  she slathered that rabbit with good Dijon

cooked it.

I was in Palm Springs, for The Internet Librarian.  I have a cousin who
lives near Palm Springs.  I have not seen this cousin in 40 years.  I
haven't particularly wanted to see her.

The first memory I have of this cousin is holding her in my lap and
reading to her out of some really baby book.  She smelled so wonderful!  I
was overcome with love of baby, just by the smell.  And her sweet small
weight.

But she got older and kind of nastier and kind of vapider and I haven't
wanted to keep in touch.  But for my ma's sake, I called her when I was in
Palm Springs.

We didn't meet, we only talked on the phone.  But we almost immediately
clicked into some kind of weird known-you-forever mode.  We laughed almost
all the time, and not so much with nervous laughter but ha ha ha here we
are I KNOW YOU!  And your mother and your father and your sister and.

Her father was a Congregational minister but she sounds kind of like a fat
real estate agent, which she might be.

Hey, this is not a story.

No.  Widowers live on both sides.  I thought it was odd that both of their
lights came on while I was outside in my yard.  I thought I heard a knock
on my window so I got up at 2 a.m.

Hooeee it would freak me out if I thought I heard a knock on my window,
and I sure wouldn't go outside at 2 a.m.

Were you worried about them, or just nosy, that you peeked?

Subject: Does a dog you know have trouble walking?

Hello:

I recently ran across your email address when I was doing a search
for "dog-walkers" and "dog-related" businesses on the Internet.

Our company, Bottom's Up Leash, manufactures a fantastic new
dog leash which was designed for dogs with rear-end problems
such as arthritis, hip dysplasia, or broken bones.  This leash can
improve the quality of life for dogs or cats with these sort of
problems.  Since you are a pet lover like we are, I thought you
might know of a dog that could benefit from using this leash.

We sell our leashes for $24.95 (plus shipping & handling).  My
dog "Watson" lived to be 17 years old with arthritis and
was still able to walk with the help of the leash.

Good luck and best of health to you and to your pet.  If you
have any questions, please feel free to contact me, or you
can visit our website at http://www.BottomsUpleash.com.

Sincerely,

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

Then I think of my (former) neighbor. At least I wasn't abandoned by
my husband of 30 years.

I wish they'd come get their pets.

Isn't that kind of odd -- that you are surrounded by widowers in a world
that supposedly has far more widows than widowers?

Curious about height and dunking and stuff, I just looked at the web
info on our women's basketball star and was surprised by how starrish
she does seem to be -- was also surprised that she has a cross tatoo on
her arm.  She does sound impressive, though:

Who is Sheryl Swoopes?  That's the "most famous person" LaToya has ever
met.

We had some rabbit in Pisa last spring - it included the kidneys and was very good. At the same time we have som scruples about eating rabbits now that a member of our household is of that persuation.

It is being said by the UN that "the burden of proof is on Iraq" to
account for what it did with the weapons of mass destruction the UN
inspectors never could find last time.  I'm not suggesting that Iraq is
innocent and that they didn't have these weapons.  But I'm curious about
how such a demand works -- like how is one to prove that one has gotten
rid of something that one was said to have had before though nobody
could prove they did have it before.

Is my question making any sense?  It's about the logic of the
request/demand.  Like somebody says, "We're sure you had a rabbit in
your possession five years ago, even though we never could find it when
we looked for it.  So now the burden of proof is on you to show us how
you disposed of that rabbit."

Sheryl Swoopes played for Texas Tech in the early 1990s.  She was a pretty
good player, I don't recall if Texas Tech made it to the Final Four during
her career.  I do recall her playing at Northern Illinois as a freshman
... Northern Illinois beat Texas Tech that evening, it was round one of
the NCAA tournament.

Dunking is more than height: one has to have sufficient leg muscles of the
right kind to jump, and hands big enough to hold the ball from above.

I could write many stories of my first 35 years, all spent in Chicago

Charlotte, North Carolina-AP -- A North Carolina homeowner didn't like the
name of his street -- because it sounded too much like the leader of al-Qaida.
Mecklenburg County commissioners have wiped away Usuma (oo-SOO'-
muh) Court at the request of the resident, who says it sounds too much like
the name of Osama bin Laden.
The street name closely resembles an alternate spelling of the al-Qaida
leader's first name.
The commissioners have renamed the street Hidden Court.

Maybe his father's fame happened later? IMDB has him born in Laurel,
NE. They don't say anything about his father being a star, and don't
list him. What was his father's name?

The born is correct, but perhaps not the brought up.
One account I read said that his father's garage business
was wiped out by the depression.  It said James went
to college in L. A., but nothing of the inbetween years.

The only thing it found consistently was double-click stuff, and since
they don't do that any more...

What about web beacons?

I don't remember that there are any anatomical differences; I'd bet on
inferior training, i.e., not building sufficient muscle mass in the area of
the knee.  However, things can happen while driving the lane for a layup,
cutting for a pass, (or that matter, running for a bus) that the knee
simply is not designed to withstand.

Years ago, I almost blew out a knee while trying to wade a flooding
stream.  The current spun me part-way around while my foot was wedged
between a couple of rocks.  Afterwards, the knee was weak, would make
interesting sounds sometimes when I went up or down stairs, etc.---the
usual stuff that says someday soon, it's surgery time.  About that time I
got interested in rowing; as a result I built up my leg muscles and the
knee stabilized enough to allow whatever was stretched/partly torn inside
to recover.

What makes you think we would be bored?  I think you've led the most

I thought the stress was different on a woman's knees because of the very
simple fact that a woman's hips are wider and thus the thigh bones come
down at a steeper angle.

Now I am thinking that Charles was not James' father. This is a surprise

I don't disagree.

I think this is the article I read on this topic:
http://www.dartmouth.edu/~dujs/2000F/10-ACL.pdf

What I was thinking of in particular is the size of the intercondylar
notch; tends to be narrower in women, and is regularly widened when
they have surgery.

Yep, that's the way to do it.

>What about web beacons?

I don't specifically block beacons, but I do convert all cookies to
session-only with Proxomitron; and I tell Eudora to use its built-in HTML
viewer, which generally doesn't load images, instead of Microsoft's.

With these measures, beacons don't accrue any more information than what's
already recorded in the web logs, which I figure is okay.

The default Proxo setup blocks a fair amount of advertising domains anyway,
as a matter of course; that probably blocks a fair amount of beacons.  And
in browsing the standard Proxo rules, I do see a rule to block all off-site
images, so if I wanted to, I could turn that on.

His father was James Coburn Senior. So he's actually a junior. (But
his son is a 4th. Weird.)

By proving they had it, and then proving they got rid of it.

 From my vantage point, though, the Bush Administration decided they wanted
to <do something> with Iraq.  The original goal was stated as removing
Saddam, but they don't say that any more; nor do they appear to have any
plans for what happens after they win the attack.  But for whatever reason,
it is *imperative* for them to attack.

This was going to be a unilateral thing, but at some point, the
Administration caved and decided they did want some sort of approval from
the UN (I've heard that it was at the insistence of Colin Powell), and
after enough bullying and chiding, the countries on the Security Council
caved -- after all, if the bully wins, you're on the winning side; if the
bully messes up, you blame it on the bully.

Since the attack is on a tight timetable to get done before next summer,
when it will be too hot to fight efficiently, the UN inspection has to
proceed quickly.  So therefore, very stringent requests must be made of
Iraq with short deadlines, and they must fail them.

Good morning, Betty.  Foggy here.  I think I moved to San Francisco about
exactly 19 years ago.  However, I remain a midwesterner because I think
they're -nicer-.

That may be because someone else (James' brother?) named his kid that.
He would not have been a junior, but a IIIrd.

I don't think the dunk will be the ruin of women's basketball. You'll see
the game change when the salaries start matching what the men get paid, the
endorsements come rolling in and team management wants to see a return on
investment. The emphasis will be on filling seats and to fill seats you
need to put on a show.

I'm just reporting the facts, Alyce. James Coburn had two children,

People living in those houses along the canal all moved upstairs years
ago. They now enter through the second (and sometimes third) story.

My archaeologist was from the family of a papal duke.* His Greek name
was Oikonomides, but his Italian name was Barozzi. There is a Campiello
Barozzi in Venice and their palazzo is on that street (sold in hard
times). For a time I had a gold medallion with the papal arms on it, but
I gave it back when we parted.

I give thanks for my crummy $20 Fry's scanner almost every day. I
can't believe how long it took me to buy one. I've only had this one
for just over a year and it's saved my life several times over.

One cool thing--my Yale transcript has this nice fancy Yale blue
background that says "Yale University Graduate School of Arts and
Sciences" in teeny letters, but when you scan it, it says "COPY COPY
COPY".

Thank you, good Betty. When I was much younger, I wanted to be a writer.
As a Camp Fire Girl, when we were to assume Indian (not yet Native
American) names, I made up Shumaluakde, which was some amalgam of words
I found in some book that meant quill, birch bark, and something or
other. Then I made a design with symbols for this stuff and made a
headband on a bead loom. Still have the headband and during hippie days
I got it out and wore it. (Though, of course, I was too old to be a
hippie, being of the Builder Generation.)

I meant James the First's brother (or cousin or any other male in the
family) could have had a child before James H. Coburn IV was born and
named him James H. Coburn III.

Ha ha ha, "oops"! Wrong message altogether. I meant that with
immigrants it takes on this other unpleasant dimension, where
they are held up as exemplary immigrants, etc. You know what
that's in service of, of course--phobia of "lazy" immigrants.
Plus the implicit feel-good claim that your own ancestor was
this kind of miserable workaholic.

That's a good question. For instance, as another cabbie said,
since you have to work to live, you might as well get a family,
so you feel like a hero. This is what this guy might be doing.
But he gave out a joyless vibe for sure. Another thing which
he did was ask me to check out karma2grace.com, which may
sound like a trixie TV show, but seems to me like a reaction
to lost joy.

I don't like the new name since it sounds too much like the leader of a
Nazi Party. What I mean to say is that it closely resembles an alternate
spelling of that name, and sounds too much like it according to me.

It's OK, thanks for spelling tendonitis with an "o". Yesterday,

Well, I'll just talk about libraries.  The Cleveland Public Library is a
lot nicer than the Los Angeles Public Library.

Monday I e-mailed both libraries asking if they had the 1972 edition of
Uniform Freight Classification (couldn't tell their holdings from their
web site).  I got a same-day reply from Cleveland; had a friendly
discussion with the head business librarian, who said they had it and to
tell the interlibrary loan person that he authorized our borrowing it
although officially it does not circulate.  Then yesterday I got another
reply from Cleveland (ok, they don't talk to each other).  Then today I
got a special e-mail message from the interlibrary loan department saying
the book is coming in the mail.

I haven't yet heard from the ****ing LAPL.

This kind of thing happens a lot - I use the University of Michigan's
document retrieval service in preference to UCBerkeley.

Thank you. The Rashmeeber has spoken. The guy sitting across
from me here calculates that he could get rid of a car and
take a LIMO everytime he truly needs a ride. However, he
cannot articulate this vision, since every attempt is drowned
out by a massive swell of voices inventing every possible out-
landish objection to the very idea.

My friend, Russell, puts it succinctly: "Not having a car

I think it says more about librarians. They don't have anything better to
do in Cleveland. Probably no one checks out books.

I think having nothing better to do than be nice, is exactly why the
Midwest is nicer than California.  A less stressed life and living in less
density of population makes people nicer to one another.  On average.

I take it you did not find the argument compelling ?   Perhaps you do not
save, but rather spend your money frivolously for your enjoyment,  because
you have no stake in the future.

What argument? This one above? I find it, like, totally compelling
as an explanation of what people do. All the lameass bravado of
"I will fight like a tiger for my family" etc is explained in one
sentence by this theory. The shit-ass is really only working to
survive, but can sugar-coat the disgraceful bondage to work by
family nonsense. However, if you are asking me if I reject this
as a guideline for living, you are correct. I would seek the feel-
good deception in another way, such as doing a job with a built-
in "I am helping others" feature.

Maybe. Do you have Ph.D.? I would accept this from a Ph.D.

A good illustration of how stuff travels around the world.
I received it yesterday on Bibliomania. Today Doug sent it to me. Now

I'm not sure I follow this.

A bully might have gone to the United Nations on September 12 and said,
"Let me explain why the United States began bombing Baghdad yesterday."
In fact, Jonah Goldberg posted that at the Corner on September 10 or 11 of
this year.

A bully might have called a joint session of Congress and said,
"Yesterday, the armed forces of the United States began an effort to
change the regime in Iraq.  Under the War Powers Act, I am seeking the
following authority from Congress ..."

If memory serves, the President, whether at the Secretary of State's
urging or not, made the case for Iraq being in violation of numerous
Security Council resolutions, and sought a resolution in Congress
authorizing force if required.

Both houses of Congress passed such a resolution.  The opposition ran in
the recent election on a less bellicose ticket.  That opposition lost
seats in both houses.  The Security Council then adopted a tougher
resolution calling for enforcement of the existing resolutions, and
providing for more extreme measures in the case of continued violation.

None of the above strikes me as bullying, much of it strikes me as
consistent with Constitutional principles (which I approve) and the UN
Charter (about which I have some reservations, but if you're going to
appeal to international institutions, as the opposition has done, it's bad
form to reject them when they reach decisions you dislike.)

The only imperative I see is that the opposition to regime change in Iraq
(and let me be open about this: absent constitutional republics in
Afghanistan, Iran, Iraq, Saudi, and Palestine, people in the United States
and much of the rest of the world are in greater danger, and the citizens
of those places named will continue to lead sucky lives) views any
disagreement with their position as evil:  Bush is evil, the Congress is
evil for going along, the British are evil for going along, Vladimir Putin
is evil for going along, and the UN Security Council is evil for going
along.

I'm a bad one to ask about movies.  I don't usually remember the
titles.  But I'll try.

So he's looking for internal conflicts rather than conflicts between
people?  Like a character struggling with an intersection of social
forces?  How about "Witness," for religious/cultural diversity?  I think
the struggle within the Amish widow is interesting as she seems to be on
the verge at times of leaving Amish ways because of falling in love with
the policeman.  (That one came to mind because I saw it last night on
tv.)  There are, of course, tons of race-related movies.  What's the
name of the one about the white man who goes to Chicago and meets his
black brother?  Both of them have some interesting internal conflicts,
iirc.

Surely other people have come up with some good suggestions by now.

Are there outside water bowls?  If so, I trust you're keeping an eye on
them to make sure they're filled.

Well, bully for him.

You seek to establish a definition of "bully" more or less at one end of
the spectrum.  However, intimidation can occur at lesser levels than you
describe in your scenario.

It is fairly clear that the Administration wants to get rid of Saddam and
will jump at any plausible reason for doing so.  It was able, with some
modification of its intitial thrust, to obtain support in the Security
Council.  What behind-the-scenes arm-twisting and deal-making went on, we
may never know.  I believe that except for one or two fire-breathers, it
<is> important to the Adminstration to legitimize future actions---and the
UN is the best arena for that.

The USA seems bent on the "if you're not with us, you're against us"
strategy.  That strategy works as long as most other entities opt to be
"with us."  We have yet to experience the other side of the coin.

Or maybe his father chose to live in Nebraska, going to Hollywood only
when he had to.  I know I've said before that Morgan Freeman, having the
<sense of place> that most Mississippians have, chooses to live in
Mississippi, traveling to LA when necessary.

Which is why I like living in Austin. Money magazine agrees with me:

Are you sure James' father was Sr and James Jr?  There could've been a
cousin who was III before the birth of IV.

two-directional?), or would you use those beautiful toes?  Or perhaps
back up to the computer?  Just curious.

Although "Rita" is only saying this to attract my attention, I concur.
With this movie available, students should not be made to suffer richly
portrayed diversity and boring-ass internal conflicts. This important
fact is readily proven by observing that these guys are on a mission
from God.

(Furthermore, if this movie were made in Bombay, people in the first
8 rows would personally be dancing right in front of the screen for
every song, and many others would be vocally registering agreement
and/or throwing small coins at the screen. Though one will clearly
come across as a chump, one must add that were "Rita Chapman" our
English teacher, "Rita" would quite possibly be seated on a chair
covered with gold paper and carried around on the shoulders of
several students, on September 15th a.k.a. Teachers' Day.)

Support? Yes, after a fashion, this is support. But note the
highly valuable information about Bombay, which cannot be
obtained by consulting e.g. the writing of Salman Rushdie.

You want I go kick their ass? Or perhaps you want to say screw
it and take the train to Chicago?

    We have a professor here who teaches...I don't know what.  "Sex roles in
society" or something.  I know his students feel sandbagged.  And my cow orker
who put his videos on reserve sometimes gets the oogies from box blurbs.  (Some
of them are pretty mainstream - "Enemy Mine", "Victor/Victoria" - and some of
them are weird with a beard.)  I can crank out a list of them for you if you

Steve,

>A bully might have gone to the United Nations on September 12 and said,
>"Let me explain why the United States began bombing Baghdad yesterday."

President George W. Bush, Alamogordo, New Mexico, October 28, 2002: "I went
to the United Nations; I said to them as clearly as I could, in Western
language -- (laughter and applause) -- I said, you can be an effective body
to help us keep the peace, you can be an effective U.N., or you can be the
League of Nations. That's your choice to make. You have the choice as to
whether or not you will allow this dictator to continue to defy the United
Nations, and therefore, weaken you. Or you can join with the United States
and disarm him like he said he would do."

The Administration has made it clear it's going to use the prodigious
resources of the United States to go beat up Saddam Hussein.  It has told
the UN it can choose to join in, or be a goat.  And it's proud of that
approach.

I don't oppose regime change in Iraq.

But I *would* like the Administration and Congress to be able to articulate
clear answers to these questions:

How can our economy recover from recession?
How can we keep America and ourselves safe from terrorists?
How can we assure our supplies of energy (not necessarily oil)?
How can America contribute to global prosperity and peace?
How can we preserve our democratic ideals and liberties?

The Administration has picked removal of Saddam Hussein, with or without
the participation of the UN, as one of its top priorities in answering
those questions.  You've expressed why you think it will work (although I
still don't see why we don't delenda Riyadh first, if that's the real problem).

Personally, I think it's a stupid choice of priorities.  But the die is
cast, and the Administration now has what it's asked for to prove itself,
or not.

Pete

Yes, I had lice - we all had lice in the third grade.  They have special
lice combs!  Also foul smelling shampoo.

Actually, maybe I didn't have lice.  I think we all had to get the
treatment, though.

I bet I had lice.

Oh good!

Let's talk about Korean women.  My new Korean cow orker is so fine.  I
will tell everybody all about her:

She is married to somebody with a Spanish surname (but she goes by her own
Korean name).  He is a house husband.  They have moved here from Texas.
Why?  I asked.  She said "because we like it here."

They have two kids.  One is only 2 years old.  Every now and then (maybe 3
times a week) the little one gets tearful and fretful and The Person I Am
Describing gets on the phone, to soothe.  She is so soothing!  She
whispers so small into the phone, nobody can really hear her, but it
sounds so loving and sweet, those little coos and whispers, that I am sure
they are powerful calming enchantments.  I add, silently, to them:  baby?
what's wrong, baby?  are you ok?  (I add, yes, you're ok)  etc etc.

Yesterday, the little one had to go to day care, though.  It was hard on
the little one, and I figured it was hard on My Cow Orker.  At one point
in sympathizing, I said "I guess she'll just have to tough it out."

Korean CoW said (laughing) yes!  Suck it up, kid!

Also, she is Very Smart.  And crafty.

I wonder what Korean men are like.  Shitty, probably.

Little Green Footballs, Best of the Web, and haven't some prominent people
(including the CEO of Wisconsin Energy most recently) backed away from

Some good observations from Peter Kaminski

> President George W. Bush, Alamogordo, New Mexico, October 28, 2002: "I went

The United Nations is sort of like a faculty senate meeting.  Is there one
sentence in the above that you can rebut with a fact?

> The Administration has made it clear it's going to use the prodigious
> resources of the United States to go beat up Saddam Hussein.  It has told

Because Saddam Hussein is financing 'splodeydopes and likely offering aid
to al Qaeda.  I still find the hypothesis that Mohammed Atta mailed the
anthrax to be the simplest explanation.

(text slipped at Reading)

> I don't oppose regime change in Iraq.
>
> But I *would* like the Administration and Congress to be able to articulate
> clear answers to these questions:
>
> How can our economy recover from recession?

What recession?  Current unemployment rates are lower than the
non-inflation-accelerating rate of 6% once held by the Council of Economic
Advisors to be full employment.  Initial claims for unemployment trending
down.  Bull market since August.  Possibility of permanent tax rate cuts
and further deregulation.  Likelihood of new open-tap entitlements low.

> How can we keep America and ourselves safe from terrorists?

Remove their funding (Riyadh delenda est would help).  More
Arabic-language translators for intelligence.  More tracking of cell-phone
calls and Sidewindering of vehicles.  Constitutional republics in all the
places named.

> How can we assure our supplies of energy (not necessarily oil)?

Develop the Alaskan, Gulf Coast, and Great Lakes oil sources (yes, the
Pres. caved to his brother on Florida oil).  More nuclear power plants.
I-Pass transponders in all cars, with road tax based on time of use of all
roads, not just the toll roads.  Abolish the fuel economy rules for cars,
in order that families who want large, safer cars have the opportunity to
buy station wagons rather than SUVs.

> How can America contribute to global prosperity and peace?

Open trade.  It's a crime that African farmers cannot sell sugar here,
just to preserve the incomes of a few Louisianans (cane growers) and
Coloradoans (beet growers).  Sensible immigration ... the migration of
Latin Americans to the United States is unlikely to result in the
reconquest of the Southwest, it's more likely to result in the
Americanization of great parts of Mexico.  Defund the Islamofascists, by
diplomacy where practicable, with Tomahawks if required.

> How can we preserve our democratic ideals and liberties?

Keep vigilant.

No argument about the House of Sod.

In an ideal world, there are other things I'd put first.  But since last
September, the primary responsibility of the national government is to
ensure that citizens be safe in their homes.

Some kids have spent so much time out of school because of lice that

By default, perhaps.  I like Glenn Reynolds's likening the UN to a faculty
senate meeting.  I also suspect that the US vote changed a few minds.  As
several of the war bloggers have noted, the American street has a vote,
and if the American street is angry, the American government has to pay
attention.

But who is that other side going to be?  The Arab world?  I have seen some
things circulating on the web that make US propaganda posters, circa 1942
(a spider with a moustache, a nearsighted little guy with buck teeth) look
tame.  InstaPundit raised the concern that if the US military turned all
of Asia Minor to glass, many in the States wouldn't flinch.  The
Europeans?  They're good at playing balance of power, but as JMW noted,
the Islamokazes had away matches in Paris and Moscow, that's not a good
way to persuade the diplomats to play balance of power.  And if they start
drilling with their bicycles, well, it's easy to turn a drill field to
glass...  Strikes me that there are precious few entities (countries?)
that have incentives to be on the other side.  Anyway, thanks for the
comments.  SHK

What's there to rebut in an ultimatum?  Why does the Administration seek UN
resolutions on the one hand, and thumb its nose at it with the other?

But that's not what Bush says.

And if that's the real reason, why not change regimes in Saudi Arabia,

One of my favorite subjects, as you know, but I'm not sure there's a

bore you to tears. I spent a little while with my favorite artist
this afternoon, and the temptation is great to talk too much.

That's customary in Korea, and I've known a number who keep to the

Korean men are like people everywhere: they run the gamut from kind

I would like to know more about what and when regarding Cyprus - if this goes back to before July/August 1974 it is of no interest in this discussion although it matters in other discussions.

Bilateral foreign troop reductions:
1092 (1997) Turkey/Cyprus
1117 (1997) Turkey/Cyprus
1178 (1998) Turkey/Cyprus
1217 (1998) Turkey/Cyprus
1251 (1999) Turkey/Cyprus
1283 (1999) Turkey/Cyprus
1303 (2000) Turkey/Cyprus
1331 (2000) Turkey/Cyprus
1384 (2001) Turkey/Cyprus
1416 (2002) Turkey/Cyprus

There are also a number between 1974 and 1997 directing Turkey to get out
of Cyprus.

The author specifically left out resolutions that were ambiguous or which
had become moot.

I am still not sure that these are acceptable resolutions against Cyprus, ut I am clearly biased here.

I just realized how early it was when you wrote that what you did about
nobody to answer you.  I thought of mem because I thought maybe you were
up late.  But you weren't writing that late at all.  It wasn't long
after even I, the to-bed-with-chickens person two time zones later than
yours, had turned off the computer.  So I could've also named tons of
other people likely to keep you company for a while longer.  In saying
that, did you mean that you don't want to hear from the likes of Pete or
Bad Betty?

> Also, she is Very Smart.  And crafty.

Crafty how?  Give evidence.  All the Koreans I know are smart, but they
don't, of course, represent a cross-section of Korean society.

> I wonder what Korean men are like.  Shitty, probably.

My Korean colleague's husband seems nice, although I don't know him well
since he mainly lived in Chicago while she lived here and this year
lives in Hong Kong while she lives in Seoul.  We're hoping she's going
to come back here, but the chances are slim since she has a great job at
Korea University.  (Technically she's on leave this year, but she'll
have to make the choice soon -- here or there.)  Of the five Korean
students I'm teaching this semester, only one is male.  He's quiet, so I
don't know much about him except that he's an excellent student, as are
all the others.

        It isn't a non-sequitor.  So there.  It is an observation

I'm fascinated at how your whole life seems to be on the web.  I
certainly agree whole-heartedly that the web is important and that
organizations like Not-In-Our-Name would have a hard time existing
without it.  But when I think of NION, I think "group," not "site."  And
what I wrote (below -- because of your upside-down replies) does not
depend in any way on the opinions of Instapundit, whatever that is, etc.

I have no idea what the CEO of Wisconsin Energy thinks about anything.
Note what I said about NION.  I realize that when somebody says "the
USA" believes or does or whatever, it does not mean that every USAer
agrees, and certainly what Clyde (I think it was Clyde) said makes sense
-- since the word was "seems."  Yet I feel that at times I must say
things like, "NOT IN MY NAME!"

        You'll be shocked, I'm sure, if some of us have a hard time
taking seriously a soruce called "Little Green Footballs."

Of course it is. Finding one accomplished 88-year-old African-American
woman (who managed to get a medical education in spite of the
fact that she grew up in Mississippi back when) interesting is not exactly
<gushing> and certainly does not imply a <fetish> - unless, of course, you

On the bright side, last night my brother sent the first picture
of the little girl he and his wife are adopting from Russia.  He
needs to make two trips, the first being this Saturday.  It's
getting very exciting!

I'm sorry.  I couldn't help myself.  I don't live in a large city.  We kept
moving further and further away from Berkeley until we found an area we
could afford.   I'd like to live in Albany actually but Pinole is quiet and
we have a quiet neighborhood.  It's perfect weather for our liking and easy
to get any place that we wish.  I have heard that Austin is rated high.

The US and Britain have been attacking Iraqi installations after Iraqi air
defenses fire on US and British aircraft patrolling "no-fly" zones over
Iraq.  Iraq says civilian installations have been hit; the US and Britain
say only military installations have been attacked.

The no-fly zones were created for "humanitarian" reasons by the US, Britan
and France in 1991, but were not sanctioned by the UN Security
Council.  Currently, the US and Britain are the only members of the
Security Council who hold they are legitimate.

The US alone further asserts recent Iraqi anti-aircraft fire violates the
November 8th Security Council resolution.

"Some American analysts have already started describing the Iraqi action
and the American response in the no-fly zones as low-grade war, saying US
warplanes are trying to degrade Iraqi air defences, which would be useful
in the event of a full-scale war."

Playwright Jim Sherman wrote this after Hu Jintao
was named chief of the Communist Party in China.
"Condi" refers to Condoleeza Rice, Bush's National
Security Advisor.

HU'S ON FIRST
By James Sherman

(We take you now to the Oval Office.)

George: Condi! Nice to see you. What's happening?
Condi: Sir, I have the report here about the new leader of China.
George: Great. Lay it on me.
Condi: Hu is the new leader of China.
George: That's what I want to know.
Condi: That's what I'm telling you.
George: That's what I'm asking you. Who is the new leader
        of China?
Condi: Yes.
George: I mean the fellow's name.
Condi: Hu.
George: The guy in China.
Condi: Hu.
George: The new leader of China.
Condi: Hu.
George: The Chinaman!
Condi: Hu is leading China.
George: Now whaddya' asking me for?
Condi: I'm telling you Hu is leading China.
George: Well, I'm asking you. Who is leading China?
Condi: That's the man's name.
George: That's who's name?
Condi: Yes.
George: Will you or will you not tell me the name of the
          new leader of China?
Condi: Yes, sir.
George: Yassir? Yassir Arafat is in China? I thought he
          was in the Middle East.
Condi: That's correct.
George: Then who is in China?
Condi: Yes, sir.
George: Yassir is in China?
Condi: No, sir.
George: Then who is?
Condi: Yes, sir.
George: Yassir?
Condi: No, sir.
George: Look, Condi. I need to know the name of the new
          leader of China. Get me the Secretary General of
          the U.N. on the phone.
Condi: Kofi?
George: No, thanks.
Condi: You want Kofi?
George: No.
Condi: You don't want Kofi.
George: No. But now that you mention it, I could use a
         glass of milk. And then get me the U.N.
Condi: Yes, sir.
George: Not Yassir! The guy at the U.N.
Condi: Kofi?
George: Milk! Will you please make the call?
Condi: And call who?
George: Who is the guy at the U.N?
Condi: Hu is the guy in China.
George: Will you stay out of China?!
Condi: Yes, sir.
George: And stay out of the Middle East! Just get me the
         guy at the U.N.
Condi: Kofi.
George: All right! With cream and two sugars. Now get on
        the phone.  (Condi picks up the phone.)
Condi: Rice, here.
George: Rice? Good idea. And a couple of egg rolls, too.
        Maybe we should send some to the guy in China. And
        the Middle East. Can you get Chinese food in the
        Middle East?

Yes, we have the same neighbors and both sides and across the
street.  We've been very fortunate in that the neighborhood has remained
quiet over the years.  The house catty corner from us is still owned by the
original people but their son is living there.  They just built 9 $400,000
+ homes one block from us.  I can't believe how they are squeezing houses
in up here.  I can think of  five additional families that are still
here.  The school district is still good, too.  We were just lucky.

Actually not.  One of the web loggers noted that: the hawkish sites, and
the open-markets sites, tend to have light-hearted names, the appeasement
sites and the socialist sites tend to choose earnest sounding names.

It's an interesting signalling equilibrium.  SHK

So is anything with an earnest-sounding name automatically a socialist
site? Is there anything in between hawkish/open market and socialist?

A good question from Alyce,

> So is anything with an earnest-sounding name automatically a socialist
> site? Is there anything in between hawkish/open market and socialist?

No on the first question, yes on the second question.  Suggestion: go to
http://www.instapundit.com and visit 10 or 20 of the logs listed at the
left of the page.  The observation I made was of a post somebody put up, I
forget whom, and the observation, as is true of all generalizations, has
the usual properties of a generalization.  SHK

Thanks for the numbers, wouldn't there be a 20% increase coming off that
low of 7300 (in September?) to now?

If you say so.  Bless your optimistic heart. :)

To my eye, it looks like we're trending down, with a extra bad dip in
September.  Six more months of data and we'll see if we're in recovery or
dead cat bounce.

A friend of mine was telling me that things are turning around, and I
was all, "Show me the money!". It turns out that he works for a large
company that actually manufactures things, and that orders are up. I
do think that's a reason to be somewhat optimistic.

I feel guardedly optimistic in Silicon Valley, although I know *way* too
many people who are out of work.

I'm involved in an emergent, let's-find-work volunteer organization of
high-tech product marketing folks
(<http://www.softwareproductmarketing.com/> -- I'm Software Development
Director, with a picture and bio on the website :), and so far, even with
lots of get-the-word-out and marketing efforts, very few have actually
found jobs. :(

Even worse, I've read on a couple lists this week that people have
personally observed sales force cuts so deep that vendors don't have the
resources to sell even existing products to companies that want to buy
them. :( :(

No. It's a big enough company that I'm not sure exactly what he was
talking about. They produce oil-drilling equipment and some

Welcome to the club.  The reality at the public universities in the
midwest is insufficient faculty to staff the classes for students that are
enrolling.  The error by the universities is more glaring.  Business is
more subject to surprises than higher education ("It will fluctuate,"
according to J.P. Morgan).  The students filling our campus now were in
middle school in 1995, but did anybody in charge infer anything about the
construction of middle school space?  Not here, which might contribute to
my grumpier than usual mood.

The scary part for me is not the number of people I know who are out
of work, but how long it's been going on. One of my friends has been
out of work for nearly two years.

But some have. Better than a kick in the pants!

This is the part I don't get--I see that happening here, too.

Oh, the other part I don't get is that I read somewhere that Dell is
talking about moving all development to China--in which case, all my
writer friends will find themselves unemployed.

Any of it set up for offshore?  Anti-static would also be useful in dry

Over-correction.

The part I worry about is that this could turn into a positive feedback

Let me paraphrase:   What pop culture reference?  Oh, I bet you mean "the
final answer" part that Tushar said.  I'm guessing that is the tag line
from some TV quiz show.  I don't know that.  But I think someone in my
lunch crowd referred to it once.  In any case, I'm not sure that TV shows
should be considered "pop culture."  I find it very amusing that you think
that way.

And here in Bar Harbor, all the merchants and inn owners seem to have just
completed one of the most successful seasons ever.  In addition, every B&B
that has gone on the market this year, has promptly sold.  Someone has
faith in the future of disposable income.

I can tell you two or three trivial things about Connecticut, rattle off a
couple rivers and name a couple counties. Compared to what others have
written, I'm home state ignorant. It doesn't make me any less proud though.

One thing about living in Boston that occasionally gets to me is people's
hate for New York. This is mostly related to sports teams but you'd think I
said I killed kittens for sport when I say I'm an Yankees/Jets fan.

People are only mildly comforted when I tell them I grew up in Southern CT
and we rooted for NY teams in that part of the state. They grow confused by
my allegiance to the Celtics and are slightly soothed by my love of Larry Bird.

The reason for my identifying heavily with NYC is because although we had
local news stations on our cable box we also had the NYC TV stations. Their
news was slick and made our local stations look like amateurs, it also
seemed a lot more serious. Our news would cover the big stories for the
first 10 minutes and then get into the hokey local interest stories. NYC
news was always dramatic and when they did human interest stories there
were outrageous compared to what we were subject to in boring, uptight, CT.

        If this is recovery, then I don't want to know what a
recession will do to my 401K's.  They're losing principle
now.  I'm glad we picked good individual stocks -- they're
the only investments we have left that are worth anything.

        You know what I love?  How the new term for a dip in the DOW
is "profit taking."

Nothing wrong with that, Bush is the POTUS after all.

Why would anybody care?  Maybe I just don't understand blogging.  I had
thought it was random opinions or whatever that anybody who wanted to
poured out onto the web.   Maybe if you were in jail with no access to
the outside world other than a net connection and nothing to do all day,
you might entertain yourself with reading the ramblings of random
strangers.  But I doubt that most people do.

I've heard people say that and gathered from the way it's said that it
is something from a tv show.  I hear most famous tv <sayings> sooner or
later and even use some myself without feeling that I need to know which
tv show they came from.

As I have been reading this thread and the concomitant frayed strands, I've
had a feeling that all of this is vaguely familiar.  Then it came to
me.  If one changes the polarity of the imbedded political arguments, this
sort of breathless, I'm-now-tuned-into-the-revealed-wisdom rhetoric was
characteristic of 1960s outfits like SDS---complete with the rampant
condescension ("hey, if you need an explanation, you're stupid and I can't
waste my time") and the application of pejorative labels to those who take
an opposing view or who ask questions.

Deja vu all over again, baby.

I don't know how others manage their wrapping, but I manage mine by
cutting up Kroger sacks and putting them around the package, with the
Kroger logo or whatever either snipped off entirely or facing inward,
leaving the outside of the package plain and brown and easily
writeonable.

She mentioned that she was 88 and was still partly practicing
psychiatry.  I noticed that because I started to say that maybe it was
love,judith's cousin.  I don't know exactly how old she is, but she's
getting way on up there.  And I think she's still practicing
(psychiatry, I think, although it may be psychology).  I have no idea
whether she moves around by limo.  I decided it wasn't she when you said
something about her living X miles away from the conference.  She lives
in Manhattan.  Hmm.  What *is* the length of Manhattan?  And where was
the conference?  And how many miles did you say?  But wait -- you have
now added that this woman was African American, which I don't think
love,judith's cousin is.

I very much appreciate Bush's leadership qualities.

I very much dislike his arrogance and sense of entitlement.  I
*particularly* dislike that he freely represents the US to the rest of the
world that way.  I think it's dangerous, and weakens our place in the world.

I find those percentages pretty weird.  There have been articles in
ordinary news magazines about blogging.  I realize that not a gigantic
percent of the population keeps up with the news at all, but surely it's
higher than 3 or 5%.

I don't think I've ever read any Dell documentation, but my question is

LOL. All the parts.

I think of <the commodification of workers> as a yet-incomplete
process, and this (the wholesale firing of sales staffs) is another
step towards the completion of that process.

In my opinion blogs create even smaller "gated communities"
of discourse. We once talked about groups such as nerds, young
professional females, frat boys, Mature Afr-Amer Females etc
reading their own books and nothing else. Same here, except
they all probably extol the awesome power of weak links.

Because the developers are our source of information. If they are in
China, and we don't speak Chinese, how do we find out what's going on?

I sincerely doubt it.

I can't give you specific references.  Newsweek almost certainly.
Possibly Time and USNews.  Those are what I think of as "ordinary news
magazines."

So will there be only Chinese documentation, or will Chinese writers
write it in Chinese and look for translators, or will all the writers
have to be bilingual?  Which part of China?  I.e., which language?

Nice.  I read all the words too.  Very impressive
background.  It fails to mention, however, your
experience with words-l or with blogs.  It also

Damn.  Am I going to have to buckle down and

recent conversations, but I let it slide right over me.

keeps up, and she hadn't.

Yep, my company dominates its market with an 80% share in the US, and abroad
by about 45%, but yet we're not selling in Germany because we have no one to
sell there. It's a crying shame that the management has let it slip.

Yeah, it's great. We're having to switch plans now - our former plan is
closed, gone, kaputski. Yay to having to cash out of funds that have lost
45% of their worth. *grump*

Then maybe I should withdraw my "sure."  Perhaps one can't keep up with
the news without reading these sources (or at least one of them -- I
don't think reading all three is necessary -- I normally read either
Time or Newsweek, not both, and read US News for different items, not
really the regular news).

And this from the most recent TVA newsletter:

"The performance of the retirement System has reflected to some extent
what's happening in the overall economy and in the stock market.  The TVA
Retirement System is a very sound system, with over $5 billion of
assets.  The consequence of the economic slowdown has particularly taken
its toll on the stock market, and the Retirement System is invested in the
stock market, but not entirely so.  It's that "not entirely so" that makes
a big difference in what the performance of the plan has been.  The
Retirement System is well-diversified.  About 40 percent of its assets are
invested in fixed-income securities, which have fared much better in recent
times.  This diversification of assets limited the system's losses to less
than 8 percent last fiscal year, as compared, for example, to the S&P 500
index , which lost more than 20 percent.  The Retirement System remains
well-positioned to fund all of its liabilities into the future."

Why is it that questions about "extra credit" work usually come from
Ed majors?  Is it typical in Ed courses for students who can't manage
to pass the regular work to nevertheless pass the course by doing
"extra" work?  What kind of sense does that make?

I just read the following e-mail (edited to make sure there are no
hints of any kind to his/her identity):

> [snip] I'm between a rock and a
> hard place. With these two tests left I know I've got to do exceptional on

Whatchawanna bet s/he hasn't opened the book at all until tonight (before
tomorrow's test)?  Wouldn't it have made more sense for him/her to come by
my office for help when not understanding something as we moved along
through the material?  Or ask questions in class?  This student has never
said p-turkey in class.

In that case they do sound kind of like Words-L.  So a particular blog
site turns into sort of a community chat?

I took an ed school course for which we were supposed to contract for
grades.  Everybody could get the grade they contracted for, if they just
kept plugging along, piling up work - if your work was good you hit your
mark quickly but if your work wasn't, you just had to do more stuff.

I contracted for a C or a D, I don't remember - it was a required course
so I just needed to pass it.  The teacher thought I was scum, to aim so
low.  He recognized an insult.

        I assume they're also asking you for study guides.  I was
floored the first time an instructor handed out a study
guide for a test.  I mean, isn't that what going to class
and taking notes is for?

        Personally, I say tell him/her no.  My god.  The last thing
we need is another marginally literate English teacher in
the high schools.  YOU ARE THE GATEKEEPER.

Didn't we discuss a number of years ago whether it's p-turkey or
pee-turkey or perhaps pea-turkey.  (That last looks definitely wrong to
me.)  It means zero, as in "he doesn't know p-turkey about blogging" or
"she didn't tell me p-turkey about her plans."  I think I remember being
surprised when it came up here before to learn that it's not an
expression everybody uses.  I've heard it and used it all my life.

I always give review sheets or study guides of some kind.  The main
thing this student seemed to be asking was a way to make a C in spite of
making D's and F's on all the tests.

Heavens.  Do you think I even considered not saying no?  I had already
replied to the e-mail before posting it here.  I'm a very accommodating
teacher and go out of my way to help students and give them all kinds of
breaks and benefits of the doubt etc.  But giving "extra work" so that
somebody who doesn't understand the material can pass anyway is *way*
out of line.

        Whew.  Just checking.

        I might give a student an alternate way of demonstrating to
me that they understand the material *if* that student has
obviously been working hard -- but I have a lot of LD/LI
students, so I'm used to making that kind of accomodation...
and I teach high school, not college.  But obviously your ed
skool loser hasn't bothered to learn the material.

        I'm getting hit with a lot of requests for extra credit right
now -- I don't permit unless every assignment is in.  I tell
them why should I do extra work if they haven't bothered to
do the required work?

Some do, but that's not the main modality.

In blogspace, an individual blog is analogous to one person's posts on
Words-L.  The other blogs they list at the side of their blog (a
"blogroll") are like the other participants of a virtual, ad-hoc list
centered around that person.

The cool thing is that each person's blogroll is different, and by their
easy web nature, blog authors generally include more links in their posts
to where they found interesting things, which adds to their virtual list.

More advanced (or compulsive) blog authors read their web referrer logs to
divine where their readers are coming from, and then often include that
source (perhaps another blog) in their blogroll.

Actually, we're only 15 minutes into it in this time zone.

Anyway, what I don't understand is this: why would anybody, at this stage
of the game, *want* to win a rewards challenge that took them away from the
tribe for a day?

That seems awfully dangerous, on at least two counts: one, the remaining
group has all day to talk about you during a time when, two, they're
jealous of you because you've won it and they haven't.

Because they need to get away from the pressure, and this is a
legitimate way.

It depends on how the returnee handles it.

Sure, dangerous.  But say you didn't think you were going to make it to
the end anyway,  why not have a lot of fun right now.

Rita Chapman recognizes the realities in many disciplines

It doesn't quite work that way in economics.  Relatively few people do
PhDs in it, and compared to other social sciences, there are more job
opportunities as consultants.  Also, with businesses lamenting the paucity
of skilled workers (that's always the 'but' in job surveys around these
parts) that particular dodge is going to dry up elsewhere on the Academic
Plantation.  Graduate training does not completely empty the mind of
judgement.

Rita, that's an old one.  If the averages are up, it's short covering, or
bullish sentiment, or interest rates, or earnings exceed expectation.  If
down, that's bearish sentiment, or selling pressure (my favorite -- the
proof is left to the reader as an exercise), or profit taking, or interest
rates.  Those explanations are social courtesies, if I knew in advance
what the true explanation at the bell would be, I'd be rich enough to
stand everybody to lobster at AcadiaFest, on my yacht.

We'll see.  Talk radio was off most people's radar screens in 1993, by
1995 in some circles it was the cause of Oklahoma City (Iraqi intelligence
is the simpler explanation.)  As is the case with any prediction, there is
a simple test: in the next year or so will the Donks be raising such a
stink?  Or, will blogs of war scale back his efforts (there are at least
two people that I used to read who have stopped)?

Yes, Natalie, and a lot of people didn't vote for John Anderson in 1980 ;)

Here's the reality: several of the Big Media magazines, including American
Prospect (tapped), National Review (corner), The New Republic (it has a
name but it's not that snappy) now have weblogs operated by staffers.
You'll also find them in odd places at newspaper sites, the sites of talk
radio hosts, and operated by professors (some of them way more famous than
I, and evidently with a greater propensity to sit at their computer than I
-- who just did some work in the basement on things with wheels, whilst
listening to Milt Rosenberg's show).  There are a lot of people who put up
random stuff and a lot of people who specialize in a few ideas (Bill
Sjostrom is economics, politics, and the culture, I'm education,
economics, and transportation with the odd political or cultural reference
thrown in).  And the fact that one posts does not obligate others to read:
you'll notice I provide relatively few links to others, but some of the
sources I've given provide more links.

At one time, "extra credit" meant that the best a student could expect to
earn in a course without doing some individual work was a C.  To make the
B or A required a special effort, which got the name 'extra' credit.

Somewhere along the line, extra credit morphed into this substitution,
wherein a student might expect to be able to improve a grade by doing a
paper, or some special project, or something.  From whence that came I
know not.  I suspect it is probably contrary to most university rules (if
all students are not graded by the same standard that's grounds for a
grade appeal).  My usual reaction when people ask about extra credit is
"have you done everything you could to get credit?"  That usually stops
them, if not a Sour Look usually does the trick.

Having said that, I do employ a variant of the Old Form of extra credit on
writing assignments.  The instructions for a term paper (if anyone wants,
email me privately, and I'll shoot off the files as .rtf) provide for
extra credit if the student works with the Writing Center.  That
requirement seems burdensome enough that few people take me up on it.

Depends on the mood of the owner.  Some owners are up front about deleting
offensive posts, others quietly kill-file known troublemakers.  I haven't

Usually one bumbles into it from another blog or a search engine -- they're
open to the public.

For instance, if you were interested in preventing bone loss, you might
Google on <weighted vests jumping>, and find my blog entry on them fourth down.

Where did the word blog originate?  Is it some kind
of b. log?  Or does it mean Best Little Oratory Going?

It's an ugly word.  It turns me off.  Come On'a My Blog
would make a bad song.  Log in to my Blog would be
a bad ad.

But I'll keep an open mind.

Peter Kaminski's is on http://www.istori.com  (the exact location is on
another hard drive and I have CRS tonight)

Mine is http://coldspringshops.blogspot.com

Bill Sjostrom's (also a Words oldtimer) is
http://atlanticblog.blogspot.com

There are some weblog directories (MIT's Globe of Blogs comes to mind) if
you want to search for registered weblogs with declared interests (very
few railroad webloggers right now).

The purpose is to allow people an opportunity to write stuff.  That
anybody drops by to read is a bonus.  That anybody is kind enough to link
or to comment is also a bonus.

Just go to any of the sites run by Words readers, and have a look around.
You're not obligated to read, or comment, or follow links.

If you want some truly bellicose stuff, neither Bill nor I link directly
to those.  We concentrate on academic writers.

It's a contraction of "web log."  The idea is to have a way of rapidly
getting information onto a web site, it's fast-acting FTP with
preprogrammed page formatting.

I suspect that the web log has much in common with Blackboard, a course
management software that we use at Northern Illinois University to provide
course outlines and other materials on-line.  Some people (I think Jim
Thomas is one) provide downloadable problem sets and allow online
submission of assignments using Blackboard.  Anybody who has had training
on Blackboard is overqualified to use a web log publishing service.

And you notice I don't use the term 'blog' in the above ;)

November 22 was a Friday.  In Milwaukee, it was rainy.  My mom made fried
rice for lunch.  That was the first time, and I don't recall it being
served at lunch again after that.  My dad usually called home around noon.
That day he called again just past 12.30 ...

Good morning! My car started this morning - I wasn't sure that it would but since colder weather is predicted for tomorrow and Sunday I had an idea it might be a good idea to do some driving today, maybe adding in some extra batteryloading after work today. We need some more snow to make (cross country) skiing comfortable: especially when one falls. I have not yet tried but my cousin told me yesterday that he was pretty stiff and sore and blue and yellow.

I didn't catch all of the show this evening...so I don't know who got kicked
off.

Didn't Ethan win a slew of challenges and still come out the winner?

I hear "diddly" also.  But I don't think I heard it at as young an age
as "p-turkey" and don't think I say it myself, although I might.  It's
not at all an alien term to me.

That also, although I consider it the same as "diddly" in that I think
of "diddly" as simply its shortened form.  Sometimes, of course, one
knows only a shortened form.  I remember being surprised the first time
I ever heard "hissy fit."  I had known and used "hissy" all my life but
didn't encounter its <full form> until adulthood.

True, although they could show their thoughtfulness by bringing goodies
back to the others.  At least this time there was an easy way for the
winner to decide who to take with him -- or at least a way that didn't
seem to be showing too much preference since it would have been odd to
pick anybody other than the one who helped him win.  That's better than
the problem poor Walt had when he had to choose which one to pull up
with him near the end.  I'm liking Walt better than I did at first, btw,
though I'm still far from crazy about him.  I disliked him at first, for
reasons I can't really remember now.  I prefer Brian and Ted, though.
Don't like Jake atall and will be glad to see him gone, though I was
gladder to see Pennyshit go last night.

I think it would be fun to be voted off at this stage.  You wouldn't
have to feel as bad about being a <loser> since you could see it as
instead being thought of as a major contender, and you could enjoy a
paid vacation doing whatever the jurors get to do during that time.
What about the earlier people, btw?  Surely they aren't sent home when
they're kicked off since that would mean people in their hometown would
know they were early off.  Do they also get to stay near the site and
have a nice vacation?

I can't see how anybody can complain about the biases in people's
personal ramblings.  Blogs are like Letters to the Editor.  Unless the
newspaper is suppressing those of a certain position and publishing only
those on the other side, who can complain?  If you don't like that lots
of letters are pro-X and anti-Y, just write one and get your like-minded
friends to write them that are pro-Y and anti-X.  You might grumble
about how many people are writing letters of views you don't like, sort
of like I grumble about how many people are apparently voting in ways I
don't like, but grumbling about the insanity of the populace is not at
all the same thing as complaining or raising a stink about it.

So those are simply another method of publishing.  I don't find that odd
at all.  I often read online publications.  In fact, I just read an
interesting letter to the editor in the online Herald Tribune:

http://www.iht.com/articles/77734.htm

But why do you think blogs are more likely to be conservative than print
media?  Or why would anybody complain?  As I said in my previous
posting, seems to be there would be less complaint since anybody who
wants to can blog away.

I've always assumed it came from lopping off the first part of 'weblog'.

Those examples I sent last night were from an index named something like
"Feast of Blogs."  I found it by googling 'blogs index'.

I was a junior at North Syracuse H.S.  Around noon I went to have a yearbook
picture taken for the Future Scientists Club and when I returned to French Class,
Madame O'Dell was just reaching up to turn down the volume on the speaker which
was carrying the live news braocast throughout the school.  She was saying "We
have a test to prepare for and we don't need this nonsense interrupting our work."  It
was another half hour before I knew why the whole school was listening to the radio.

Blog has a pleasant connotation for me.  It sounds like the beginning of "blagodarya"
which is the common "thank you" in Bulgarian and a more formal "I am grateful to
you" in Russian.  The word brings back happy memories for me.

I had left Madison on my way to my parents' home near Spooner; Saturday was
the start of deer season.  I heard about it on the car radio.  I stopped in
Eau Claire for coffee.  The coffee shop was about half-full.  It was very
quiet.

I also was in Milwaukee on that rainy Friday noon.  I was in the chapel of
Cardinal Stritch College, north side of Milwaukee, when girls came running
into the chapel from the lounge room next door.  They were
crying.    During my 1 p.m. class we just sat and listened to the radio
until the announcement came.

I'm here because we're taking a long week end and heading for the Russian

Will do. She wasn't there the last time but she had this wonderful woman
bar tender working so we had someone take a photo with Larry and I behind
the bar and sent it to her. That did get a response. I haven't checked her
web page lately.

Very sensible response.  Are web logs more like an editorial page or like
talk radio?  We shall see.  If memory serves, the Adulterer in Chief went
off on Rush Limbaugh the day after Goat Roast (was that really 8 years
ago) and Majority Leader (Emeritus) Daschle sounded off a couple of days
ago.  The complaints from both of those prominent Donks went a bit beyond
some grumbling among friends.

There is no reason why web logs or talk radio has to be more conservative,
or more liberal, than mainstream press.  Same thing is true of talk
radio.  Both forums, however, have become effective forums for resistance
to the positions of the coastal Big Media, which have tended to be
favorable to the Donks.  In principle, anyone who can type can post a
weblog, getting readers is another matter: similarly, with deregulation,
anyone who can talk has a better chance of getting a talk radio show, but
getting listeners is another matter.  Why talk radio has become the medium
of choice for conservatives, and weblogs, for bellicose libertarians, is
too much for me to think about this early in the morning.

Why would anybody complain?  For talk radio, ask President Clinton or
Senator Daschle.  For weblogs, ask your local war protester or
globalization protester.  (I recall reading something on InstaPundit last
spring about a leftie at the University of Michigan who was really pissed
off that InstaPundit, Andrew Sullivan, Little Green Footballs, et. al.,
provided people who wanted to debate the protesters with all manner of
intellectual ammunition.  It is an open secret that the lefties are scared
of substantive responses to their sloganeering.)

Well, given Mr. Limbaugh's usual style, I tend to think that he deserves

I've seen quite a few mentions of "blogs" in the mainstream
media in the last 18 months or so. They're almost always
of the gushy, slightly clueless variety - like articles
about the Internet tended to be in the Early Days. The focus
was on political/cable media figures (the ones Steve
keeps mentioning) and I don't see what's so earth-shattering
about Andrew Sullivan et al. Matt Drudge beat them all to it,
as far as I'm concerned.

I was reading the Reason web-site and Virginia Postrel's home
page before it became a "blog" so color me underwhelmed.

> Why are you dancing?

I was dancing a) because I was alone in the house
              b) as of 10:00 last night, our living room is a guest
bedroom and our house will have too many people in it for more than a
week; and     c) the music I had been listening to while cleaning up for
guests made me want to dance.

> > >November 22 was a Friday.

I was in a printmaking class, trying to make a sugarlift.  The professor
had just told me for the thousandth time, put more darks in the lights and
more lights in the darks.  One of my costudents had just told me he hated
my haircut, who was I trying to be, Gertrude Stein?

I think most of us just didn't believe the so-called news; I know I
decided to think about it later because the damned sugarlift just was not
working.

I  use cartons, either previously used, newly purchased, or free
Priority Mail boxes. If previously used, I black out (or cover with
tape) old bar codes and addresses. If the box was used originally for
toxic substances or such things, you have to cross out their identity.
If there is no blank place to write the address, I put it on paper and
then put tape entirely over it. This is the Approved Way.

I'll always remember this day - when I realized how old the
posters on this service were!!! Post after post recounting
where they were on Nov 22, 1963 - grade school, high school,
college - the list went on. Eeek, I'd joined a boomer list.

    I totally do not understand this.  The times I've heard him his "usual

At last the English translations of two best-selling books (in France
and elsewhere) about 9/11 are soon to be released in the United States
by USA Books (through Baker & Taylor), or so the company's ad in this
week's Publishers Weekly has announced.

The books are "9/11: The Big Lie" and "Pentagate," both by French writer
Thierry Meyssan, who's almost universally renowned as a crackpot since
his conclusions first came out earlier this year.

Meyssan's premise begins with his distrust of American military reports
that the Boeing 757 that flew into the Pentagon melted completely,
leaving not a single trace. The size of the hole it left, the depth of
impact, the surrounding environment all lead him to the conclusion that
it was not an airplane that struck the Pentagon but a missile, and that
missile was launched by the United States government itself from an
unknown location. The attacks on the Pentagon and the World Trade
Center, he adds, were all part of a government plan to whip up American
hatred that would support a series of wars and bring control of oil in
Afghanistan and Iraq to the United States.

[long article] This will be fodder for a lot of bloggers and radio talk
show hosts. Of course it has been quoted a lot, but now people can read
it in English and it will start a new controversy.

Matt Drudge once had a link to a UPI-newsfeed-to-web interface
*I* wrote. Did you know that? It was when he had one single web
page.

Ah, ignore these pompous asses ... I'd say it will be time to sit
up and take notice when they are as heavily influential as radio
talk shows. Or let's say, until we hear as enthusiastic of gushing
about a blog as we heard about Dr Laura many years ago, there is
no need to read 'em.

I remember approximately 8 iterations after that. Or was it
'95 when it finally got stale? Anyway, this topic has clearly
gained a new poignancy now. Besides, the tremendous variety
of things people were doing at that time is nothing short of
astonishing. The various kinds of classes they were in, and
so many different grades, or even college! The different ages
and sexes of the persons who entered the room! The diversity
of ways in which the news was told!

So where were you when Indira was killed?

I have an interview for a contract on Monday. The company had a writer
working for them, but that writer wasn't hands-on enough with the
software, so the agency is looking for someone who isn't afraid of

That's a new one.  When that Chicago resident was arrested at O'Hare last
year, Instapundit and several others noted a resemblance between him and
the John Doe #2.

Rashmi's history is correct.  The diffusion of web logs after Drudge and
Dynamist made use of new publishing technologies.  In fact, I found out
about InstaPundit from Virginia Postrel.

Got to run, setting nomail, perhaps back for a while after the new year.

It's an addiciton.

>How's the new place, Rashmi?  All in order now?

New place is great but there's little order. I need to get
a (?) second wind or something. I stopped unpacking after the
essentials. I need to get the spare bedoom set up, unpack
the office, move straggler boxes out of the dining room,
rake the leaves etc etc.

Immediate dilemma is that i'm going to have vegetarian
company for T'giving, and I have no idea what to prepare.
I eat plenty of non-carnivore food but ... I've been swamped
at work and haven't given it much thought. I'll have to
work it out this weekend.

Usually there's plenty in the side dishes, but for a center dish, we've had
baked kabocha squash filled with stuffing.

Is there actually a different between kabocha and acorn squash? I
pretty much use the names interchangeably, but the fact that you used
kabocha makes me wonder.

Thanks. I'll look for something like this. I'm intimidated
by mainstream veg. cooking since I don't eat mushrooms and
tofu and never cook it.

Yeah, kabocha is signifcantly sweeter and, we think, tastier.  Not that
acorn squash doesn't have its place.

And for the purpose at hand, the nice round pumpkin shape of the kabocha
works well for stuffing.

Neither do I. Or actually, I remember a few things but
it's not etched in memory. This sort of thing happens
on a Tuesday, but I was clearly doing something we did
on Sundays--"gifted students science class". Maybe it
was vacation? Anyway, I do remember one character from
that day, but it's a boring story.

You got bigger problems, ha ha ha ... the one that you
are mixing up is the other son, Rajiv. Unless you were
in the US already. Sanjay died long before her.

You have no heart, Tushar.  You spit on our elderly reflections on what
happened during a very significant day in the lives of most Americans and
then ask us to honor your dead.

I was merely going to suggest no tofurkey, but I think Pete's
suggestion of side dishes + stuffed squash is a good idea.

        Maybe old to you, but I've only been hearing them on the 5
o'clock news in the past year.

        Is there a route from the Mississippi to coastal Maine?  I
could go to Acadiafest in hubby's new Yacht!

Huh. Maybe it's not all in my mind then. I loved kabocha when I ate it
in Japan, and couldn't figure out why I didn't like acorn squash as
much.

Indeed. I made stuffed cabbage one year when I was a vegetarian.

        I was thinking up river for some reason, through a great lake
or whatever... but my geography isn't that good.  Down and
around would be more obvious, but since I've only ever
driven a boat once for about five minutes, ocean going might
be risky!

        Oh, sit right back and you'll hear a tale, a tale of a
fateful trip...

        My freshmen turned in their art interpretations of short
stories today... three boys got together and did a film
adaptation of a short story called The Sniper using legos
and stop animation that is so funny I was in tears watching
it in class.

As mem said, it's pretty long.  Head down to New Orleans, take a left turn,
sail around Florida, head north, and finally east.

The problem would be getting from the Mississippi River to Lake
Michigan.  You'd have to portage across the state of Wisconsin.

Why, thank you, Espen.  Do you think it's ok that I told a foreign
student today that she could rewrite her F paper in Studies in
Second-Language Acquisition?  Since there were no other F's and since
her main problem was plagiarism of an almost-certainly unintentional
kind (she conscientiously listed the web sites she'd copied
word-for-word from) and since I think she shouldn't be taking a
split-level (undergrad/grad) course at all, given that she's still
taking the freshman comp series, I told her when she asked that yes, she
could rewrite it between now and Monday.

I have not yet looked at this afternoon's test paper of the Ed student I
mentioned last night.  Twill be interesting, but I plan to wait until
tomorrow to get into those papers.

I had just left Millsaps Singers, which met M-F from 12 til 1, and was
walking to lunch with other Millsaps Singers people.  Earl Stubblefield
met us on the sidewalk in front of the Student Union and told us.  Earl
was a freshman I knew even though I was a junior because I knew his
older brother, Crawley, quite well.  I saw Crawley at that party in
Jackson a few weeks ago and happened to tell him the Earl/JFK memory,
telling him to tell Earl, whom I haven't seen in many years and probably
wouldn't even recognize now, that he is forever ingrained in my memory
for that day.

I likened them to Letters to the Editor, a specialized section of an
editorial page.  That comparison was about how one doesn't usually
<complain> about the content of letters to the editor, though one might
rebut a letter.  In other ways I'm not sure that blogs are like letters
to the editor.  People who subscribe to a newspaper automatically
receive those letters, even if they choose not to read them.  You might,
of course, say that people with internet access automatically have
access to blogs.  But that's a bit different.  The blogs don't just
tumble onto your screen unsought.

I know little of talk radio since the only talk radio I've ever heard is
"Car Talk."  But I see the same kind of difference that I see with
letters to editors.

I didn't ask the question about talk radio.  Don't really know much of
anything about it.

That's me (among others, of course).  The subject of blogs hasn't
arisen.

I find this hilarious.  First of all, I don't doubt that there are crazy
lefties, just as there are crazy righties.  So the fact that you read
such a thing on Instawhatever doesn't strike me as surprising or even
interesting.  But it's your last sentence that I find truly hilarious.
You really do seem a bit <over the edge>.

Umm, I don't think so.  Take a right at the Illinois River, enter Lake
Michigan somewhere around Calumet.

I think Brian is doing a pretty good job of that also.  The one that
might have hurt him most was the one that involved the videotape from
home, suggesting affluence.  Remember a couple of Survivors ago when
they decided to kick off the person they decided had enough money and
didn't need to win?  If it comes down to a jury vote between Brian and
somebody else, one or more voters who find the decision difficult might
think back to that tape and decide that the other person needed the
money more.

It's one of my earliest memories. I was four and a half. it was a sunny day
and still warm enough to play outside in my sandbox . My mother came running
out of the house and said "The president has been shot." I remember we
watched television for days after that. I was the same age as Caroline and
remember asking why John-John wore a dress. I felt sad for the children who
had lost their father.

Thank you for making me feel less mutant.  Karen had me convinced that
the only reason I'd seen mainstream mentions of blogs was that I read
mutant news sources.

This is one thing I haven't quite caught on to ever since first hearing
of blogs.  How are they different from ordinary web sites?  Nothing is
stopping me from giving my ramblings on whatever I've moved to ramble
about on my ordinary web pages.  Would that be a blog, or do you have to
somehow call it a blog or use software designated as blog software
before it's considered a <real> blog?

        Oh, that's doable.  I can catch the Illinois right outside
the marina.  We went swimming in the Illinois in June when
the Mississippi was too high.

    I remember when our staff artist came in breathlessly one morning and
said "The Pope's been shot!", and nothing else.  I said "Okay, yea..."  and
waited for the punchline.  8-(
    I heard on the radio today someone bemoaning the fact that C. S. Lewis
and Aldous Huxley both died on November 11th, 1963, and no one remembers.

The context of the above was that Karen seemed to think that the
existence of blogs wasn't mainstream news.  My contention was that it's
mainstream news if those three magazines have all written about it.

I do, however, find it surprising that somebody in this country has
never read any of the ordinary, general-audience news magazines.

Why were you and your brother on such a trip at those ages?  I assume it
was for practical reasons, not because your parents expected you to
enjoy it or find it educational.

You overestimate people's computer skills or desire to acquire any.
Suppose you wanted to keep a web page constantly updated. What would
you do? (a) make a copy of the file, (b) edit the file, (c) Copy the
new file over the real file.

If you wanted an archive, you would make a copy of the old file first.
Etc etc.

These are simple things--you have an old and relatively good multi-
user operating system such as Unix, so you have your shell, your own
directory and an editor. You have the simplicity of HTML, and you have
a very usable--i.e. invisible--server whereby "publishing" consists
of placing a file somewhere.

Given this simplicity, it's certain that J Random Blog Man will find
it incomprehensibly complex. Consider seasoned list warrior K-R-N's
statement earlier that she is a "GUI girl"--a 1-meg badly wrapped
Java widget seemed to her a better way to measure her typing speed
than a 3-line shell script! How much worse Blog Man must be! I have
here in The Reader an ad asking for help with pyra.com--help with
pyra? Come the fuck on!

In other words, Blog software makes web publishing fantastically more
complicated and error-prone, by slapping five layers of functionality
over the task of editing and moving files. Here are some things a blog
server will give you:

Hosting: i.e. space for your pages on a connected server. "Database
back-end": for unclear reasons, considered a boon. Editing widget: so
you don't have to learn three HTML tags. Other widgets for uploading
images, conducting surveys, attaching comments, etc. (Uniform inter-
face, a professed if not always attained ideal of old operating systems
such as Unix, is considered completely useless by the 90s Blog Man--
give me the 85th hax0r-brewed way of doing the same thing!) Other
features: stats, "skins", searches, etc. Some noise is made about
separating content and presentation--but it's not clear why that's
a good thing in this context, nor is there an articulated notion of
where content ends and presentation begins.

As a general rule, things which "common" people used to do effortlessly
in 1989--such as moving around in a Unix shell, reading mail with a
"text" interface, using editors with keyboard commands, etc etc, are
now deemed hopelessly arcane and beyond the reach of the common person.
As another general rule, though--a writer is for shit if he or she does
not master the tools of the trade. Think WWJDD: what would John Donne
do? If John Donne were alive today he would be ON TOP of file scanning,
editing, and "e-publishing" techniques. Whereas someone like say Nicholson
Baker would probably moan about the romance of the old manual typewriter.
General conclusion: anybody who uses candyassed blog software is not
an interesting writer. T Bone has spoken.

Actually, limos are sometimes cheaper than cabs.  I'm trying to remember
now who was telling me a limo story -- about how a <loose limo> is
always looking for customers and will take them wherever they want to go
for less than the cost of a cab.  I think the idea is that a limo on the
roam isn't able to pick up ordinary customers as easily as a cab can
since people think it will be more expensive, when in fact it isn't.

I just remember who told me that story.  A rug-seller in Woodland.  I
have no first-hand experience with limos.  I do think they're ugly,
though.  At least on the outside.  They somehow give me the creeps.

When I say never, I mean I never bought a copy nor subscribed. I must

Reading a newspaper in Starkville, MS, USA.  But wait -- the question
isn't supposed to be where were you when the assassination occurred.
That's different from where you were when you first heard about it.  I
probably wasn't reading a newspaper when it occurred.  I learned of it
the next day when reading a newspaper.  Time zones and all that.

I saw a HUGE limo--must have seated at least 20 people--in the parking
lot of a rather down-at-the-heels strip mall the other day.

Tofu turkey!  The alligator-pin woman from Chattanooga in my seminar at

No, if it looks like a blog, it's a blog, however you happen to effect the
look.

The general features: regular posts, at least once or twice a week,
preferably daily or almost so, with the last week or two at least on the
front page in reverse chronological order; permalinks for each post;
archives; and a blogroll.

People who read via RSS wouldn't consider it a blog without an RSS feed.

Why do I keep hearing airplanes flying low over my house?  Are they
terrorists, or are they old flames or whatever?  Perhaps I should go
outside to see whether they're tipping their wings at me.

Of course there is.  Head south down the river, then south and east to
go around the tip of Florida, then north.  There may well be shorter
routes.  But the one I just described is a simple and obvious one.

Excellent answer, Mutant. Would you say that John Donne would
have found Dr Voigtlander's perception completely absurd? The

Liking such an idea is For Shit[tm], if it be unexamined. For
instance, the above TV statistic, if used to derive any conclusion
on these lines, would imply that women fail to rule and are in
fact pathetic losers, not to say idiots. Therefore, saying that
it implies they rule is a further insult to humanity at large.
And here you sit emitting yeehas at this typographical spume
upon the paradigm of things. I utter faugh, in your direction.

There are many things in mainstream media that I don't pay attention
to.  My only point was that blogging had indeed been mentioned in the
mainstream media.

I tend to think of it as the Mississippi River's getting wider and wider
as it goes south.  But I realize now that you said as one went north.
Indeed that is true.  It gets less and less wide as one goes north.  I'm
not sure what its source is exactly -- something in Minnesota, I've
always thought, but exactly what I suddenly realize I don't know.

I'm having my Friday-night Bonniemae thoughts, btw, as my Norton does
its thing.  But it slows down my computer, which is a negative to those
warm fuzzies.

I can't remember now what Dr. V's perception was.  If it involved
separation of brain and heart, which the above makes me think it did,
then he would indeed have found it strange.

Which Dr. V, btw?  I've been meaning to consult with Dr BV about a
student paper I read this afternoon speculating about what Aristotle and
Kant would've thought of saying "fuck" and "shit."

We were too poor for magazines until about 1940, but then, Life,
Saturday Evening Post, Reader's Digest, Good Housekeeping, QST (ham
radio), American Rifleman, and for me, Children's Activities.

We're about to have a bunch of helicopters in the vicinity.  Some kind
of big European helicopter company is moving to this area to put
together helicopters.  The newspaper stories have called it something
like "eurocopter."

I do remember hearing that you can stand over it like that somewhere in
Minnesota.  I didn't remember where, though.  Is there a college in
Bemidgi?  That sounds like the place a former colleague of mine ended up
-- a Shakespearian who fell in love with German long after having a PhD
in English and kept getting more and more inspired by German and ended
up going to U of Wisconsin and getting a PhD in German.  After that she
ended up teaching both English and German somewhere in northern
coldness.  Bemidji sounds right.

I don't know what this is. CHildren's Activities was great. I was
heartbroken when I learned my mother had thrown them away when I was in
college. I'd saved them all for years.
I loved this magazine and was sorry they went out of business.

I'm trying to remember what that children's magazine I got was.  I
wonder whether it was Chldren's Activities.  It was large -- not as in
thick -- large as in sort of like Life, which we always got.  We also
got Look, I think.  And Time and the New Yorker.  And yes to the
Saturday Evening Post.  I know we got that.  I think Reader's Digest
also.  Plus things like Good Housekeeping and McCall's.  I'm not sure
that all of those were at the same time.  The ones I remember as always
without a doubt being there were Life, Time, and the New Yorker.  I hate
that my mother is now past the stage of being able to remember.  I'd
like to ask her whether we alternated magazines (as I do).

Yes, large. Great paper dolls, especially.

Your family read more than mine. My mother did not enjoy reading very
much. Daddy did, but worked so long and hard he had not much time for it
till he retired. Then he read all the time.

I guess I wasn't very well-informed. Pete said something to
the effect that a server of this type is not essential to a
blog. Correct, it's not, but a lot of people do use one or
the other. How about hosting an RSS feed of your blog? That's
a current *technology*, that's all.

Let's put it this way: email, being about communication and
not about content, remains the killer app to date. Hence,
the kind of software that offers sophisticated channels of
communication stands a chance of becoming "killer". Thus,
trying to commercialize blogs is a good idea--I mean if
you want to make money. However, one must think whether
adding all those layers onto a web page restricts freedom
a bit too much.

I'll offer the input that if everybody said "fuck" we would

Virtual L is still going on? Man, that's like decades old ... I guess
this is my stop:

Blogs are like brain-damaged, one-person mailing lists with archives, right?

RSS is a data format that lets blogs and other news sources act like simple
news servers.  Each blog then turns into a brain-damaged, one-person
newsgroup, so that you can read them in poor imitations of newsreaders.

Everything old is new again.

It looks familiar, but I'm not convinced we got it.  I do remember that

Actually, my records as a usenet hog were based on not all that much
actual usenet using.  Ordinary Words-L postings counted in my total
since that was when we had the gateway.

But your explanation is clear.  Thank you.

We got a wedding invitation the other day addressed to "Drs. Voigtlander".

Kant wouldn't have liked it.  Aristotle would have just asked a bunch of
questions about the practice.

Well, I don't know.  The student commented on the efficiency of fuck and
shit in communication and summarized something from Dostoevsky about a
conversation among a group of friends that consisted entirely of the
Russian equivalent of "shit" but that communicated just fine.

For some reason I'm suddenly reminded of when Karen was going to send
Tushar a laptop.  Did she want him to scorch his sinclair?  Did y'all
read about the man in England who fried his sinclair by working on a
laptop in his lap for an hour or so?  What I can't figure out was how he
didn't notice the frying while it was happening.

He must have been thinking of the Osbournes, who seem to say nothing

We would go to Sears and ask for old catalogues for my paper dolls.  Or
maybe new catalogues.  Any catalogues, I guess.  I liked those better
than <official> paper dolls.  I never cared for those single paper dolls
with clothes to attach to them or whatever.  I liked having lots of
different people in my paperdoll world, lots of interactions, etc.

My mother has always loved to read.  Daddy also read a good bit, though
less than Mama.  I don't think we got all of those magazines at the same
time, but they're the ones I remember sitting around our house during my
childhood.  It didn't take much time to read the ones like Life and
Look, of course.

Nothing sinister. I seem to have little memory of details of the
first 15 years of my life (pleasant though they were). You often
recount stories from that period of your life.

Wonder what I'll remember when I get Alzheimers,

I think that's kind of what the student said -- something about how
Aristotle would've believed that one should use the words not too much
and not too little and that Kant would be against them unless they were
used so often that they lost their dirtiness.  Can't remember exactly.
The paper is still on my office desk.  Maybe I'll look at it again
Monday.  I was tired of papers when I read it, having finished the last
of the SLA big papers before 10, then taught that class, then read these
two early Intro to Ling papers (the rest will come in on Tuesday) while
my Descriptive Grammar people were taking a test at 1:00.  The student
who inquired about "extra work" made a 47 on the test, btw.

Long-term memory goes last.  I remember those early years far better
than I remember the past week.

I was just being pedantically correct for Natalie.  I think anyone with a

I don't know if this makes it better or worse: we're going to try selling
blogging into enterprises.

So far we've got departments in five Fortune 500 companies (two of which
are Fortune 50) in the pipeline.

One must also think if it's actually fewer layers than other "solutions."

Me or the student or both?  I thought it was a pretty good paper for an
undergraduate, even though I don't remember the details now.  I liked
that he thought of an unusual topic, quite likely one that he thought of
because of a philosophy course he's taking, but I also like that kind of
synthesizing of courses.

Neither. It's just ... I don't know. Too many things come to the mind.
What do you mean what would Kant say, for instance. I mean would Kant
really bother. That's one. Second, why is this kind of "dirtiness" bad?
This is a manners question, does Kant have things to say about manners?
WE think in terms of some words having a peculiar kind of power, namely
the power to demean, which we consider violence, but does Aristotle?
Etc. I'd write a paper saying there is no such thing as "Kant" being
for something as long as it's not done all the time. Isn't that against
the very principle of his ethics? Anyway, I don't really have anything
to say, hence I will say LAME.

Quite a wild piece of news there.

Hm, the link with the pageant was not very clear yesterday when
I was talking to the Nigerian cabbie (this was the second of the
two cab rides I take daily). I add that he is himself an upstanding
Christian from Calumet City who hates opera, even though liking the
local NPR station. I obtained the cab in a very accomplished manner.
I ran a whole block down from the opera house which had just begun
disgorging about ten thousand people and leapt into a magically
appearing cab, as in a dream. He never reached the whistling
bullying valet battalion. After he had snaked through a horde of
totally misbehaving pedestrians, I asked him if he liked the opera.
He looked at me incredulously for a while, and said "LOOK at them".
"You think there was any interesting music going on inside?" That
being a slam-dunk syllogism, I had to rejoin with a QED, and talk
turned to the riots.

Anyway, it's clear that beauty pageants are a threat to homeland
security and must be discontinued indefinitely.

That was part of the point of his paper -- it was in the introduction.

I doubt it.  He's dead.

You aren't an average undergraduate taking Intro to Linguistics.  One
reason I liked his paper is that I'm so very tired of reading papers on
Noam Chimsky et al, sexist language, stages of first-language
acquisition, etc.  They have open choice for topics -- anything related
to the course in any way, which means anything related to language in
any way, which means pretty much anything in the world.  Very little
primary research is done since they don't usually know enough to get
into it, plus there being the hassle of getting permission to do
research on human subjects.  Occasionally students do primary research
of the kind that requires filling out forms, and that's usually fun.
Sometimes they do different kinds of primary research, like analyzing
the language of tv evangelists or whatever.  But so often they're boring
papers spewing up stuff they've read in books and articles and online
sources about non-human primates or brain lateralization or language and
gender or the Oakland ebonics controversy or whatever.  The other one of
the papers I read yesterday from that class was also good (better than
the Aristotle/Kant one in most ways), though it was mainly a <report> --
it was on the history of the language situation in Brittany.

> I agree. Is she cute?

It's a he.  He's ok, I guess.  Definitely not uncute.

Funny in a way.  Also sad in a way.  And scary in a way re the religious
wars we seem to be living in the midst of.  As I think I've said before,
I think that world peace and good will would have a far greater chance
of existing if organized religion did not exist.  (I hope I'm not
violating my don't-talk-about-religion thing by saying that.)

May I ask--

What the HELL are you talking about? How are you living in the
midst of a religious riot in Nigeria? And what on earth do you
mean peace and goodwill will have a better chance if organized
religions did not exist? Wow!

Those notes by the hermeneutics guy:  they remind me of law school. That's
the part I really liked about law school, close reading of texts and
attention to argument.

Note that I used the plural -- religious wars.  Then again, this
(Nigeria) could be viewed as one battle in the overall religious war.

I don't think I can answer this question in detail because it would be
in violation of the decree that I should not discuss religion on the
list.  Maybe it wouldn't be going too far to refer you to the comments
on flesh/bread and blood/wine in Bk IV of Gulliver's Travels or to the
Big-Endian/Little-Endian battles in Bk I.  I think the Bk IV reference
is better since I think it mentioned numbers of dead in the cause.  I
can't remember whether the Lilliputians tied it that specifically to
war.  May I also refer you to a few non-literary events, like The
Crusades, The Spanish Inquisition, Israeli-Palestinian terrorist attacks
-- the list could go on forever, of course, but I said "a few," which
I've always interpreted as meaning three, so I decided to stop there.

 Greek class is getting out of control.  Everybody is free-associating and
talking garbage.

We're reading The Bacchae.  I think I read it once zillions of years ago
but I can't remember it as a play, or even grossly what happens - so I
kind of like that, I am the only one in the class who doesn't know how it
comes out.

Anyway, I get the feeling that I am also the only one in the class who
hasn't been taught how to free-associate and talk garbage!  Like, I think
Tireseus is saying xyz (with no argument, that's just how it strikes me)
or Dionysius is really Socrates!  Because of course this is a play about
Athens, not Thebes!

And on the other hand, the teacher has furnished us with some old
hermeneutics guy's erudite notes arguing for or against some text
emendation or interpretation.  The common class attitude is that these are
bullshit, but I appreciate that assertions are always backed up with
textual evidence, and pro and cons are presented (in painful and obscure
detail, however).

God.  Talk about Old Fart.

(not God, me)

Why?  In the above context I think "anymore" works fine.  So would "any
more" in this particular context.  That's kind of interesting.  But I
don't see why you are <decreeing> that it has to be "any more."

What is there to remember?  In the case of website I see it as the
natural movement from two words to perhaps a hypenation stage to one
word.  That's how compounds normally <work>, with overlapping periods
when you see a good bit of variation.  Ditto asshole, I guess, though I
think I would find "ass hole" odder than "web site."  I don't see
"anymore" and "any more" as quite like that.  I see them as not exactly
the same thing, although in some contexts I can see either one as
working.

For one thing (but it's probably not THE thing) "anymore" should probably
be stressed ANymore (by 'should' I mean oh shit I don't know what I mean
but somebody else probaby does.  I mean would, under circumstances I am
too lazy to define).

Our company is gone for the evening!  Our living room will return to a
bedroom soon, but I hope not before I go to bed!  I am posting freely from
our one computer, which is in the living room!  I hate company!  I am so
happy they're all gone!  They won't leave until over a week from now, how
will I stand it!

Ha ha ha ha ha ha  I have sole control of the computer!  All of us (6
people) in the house are apparently e-mail junkies and with our COMPANY in
the house I have (usually) to get in line for the computer!  God, this
(temporary) freedom, which is usually my every day right, is so
intoxicating!

etc. etc. etc. somebody write me!

The thing about blogs, is that you have to remember to check in every day.

So far, I haven't found a blog that I want to do that for.  But I'm
looking forward to daypop being alive again; I used to like to read blogs
on a one-time basis, according to whatever damned search terms I used that
day.

I do follow several library blogs.  They are good services. I am waiting
to find the cult blog appropriate for me.

That's why RSS was invented, of course. :)

I think the coolest clients might be on Mac (hey there's another new thing
you need, too -- everyone loves OS X), but Amphetadesk is well-liked.

Well.

I went to a neo-pagan moon group last Wednesday. These women were all
15-20 years younger than I am, which was amusing enough. But then one
of them started going on an on--there was a long story about her
mother, and the fact that she has no friends, and then--she said she
was grateful that her cat stopped behaving like The Cat From Hell,
and, oh, the scars hardly show any more.

I laughed my ass off--it was a replay of Brown.

Last week in class -- my remedial readers -- we got into a
debate over what to call the dialect spoken by African
American students.  Two of my AA students insisted they
spoke ebonics.  This group is a lot of fun to do linguistics
with.

        Jeez, I don't live in L.A., you know.

        Hey, I figured out what the female equivalent of the mullet
is -- long hair with poofed up bangs.  Usually the two
hairstyles come together as a couple.

        I thought so.  We went downtown to one of those wenches and
wassail dinner theatre things.  I didn't drink quite enough
to make it good theatre, but it was fun.  We got up on stage
cuz it was our anniversary, and I had a good time looking
out at the audience (a benefit to teaching is that all stage
fright whatsoever has disapeared).  I saw some mullet
couples, the blue collar guys all dressed up -- they wear
the standard nerd uniform of dockers and a polo shirt and
somehow manage to look uncomfortable in it -- far too many
men with the balding Leonardo DiCaprio wet hair look, and
far too many former beauty queens looking sullen as they
drank very sweet rum things.  Maybe I did have too much to
drink because everyone in the place looked a little like
somebody I know (I saw quite a few words-l dopplegangers).
Or maybe we really do all look the same.

I.e., the whole state's infested with them, not just LA. :)

OTOH, California's got the all-electric Toyota RAV4-EVs, too.  At least
'til POTUS Oil declares them seditious or something.

Check out the under-40 crowd. Then I will tell you when I knew that alot
had become one word. I think it's probably in dictionaries by now, though
I have not checked to see.

Encarta has a usage note:

a lot or alot?
The superficial similarity of a
lot to adjectives and adverbs like
alone and aloud gives rise to a
temptation to treat the expression
as one word. This is substandard
usage. Even in informal English
lot should be treated as a noun,
which may be used either in the
plural (I have lots of ideas) or
as a singular after the indefinite
article a (Thanks a lot).

This is how language change occurs. The substandards do it first -
later, the rest of us get the word. The dictionaies record new usage first
in usage notes, later in main entries.

Sometime in the late 1970s, I passed a graduate student carrel here at UT
and saw a note an instructor had put up: "Students: Alot is NOT a word." I
know then that it was just a matter of time. I seldom teach an
undergraduate non-English-major student who does not write "alot" at least
occasionally. (And contrary to popular opinion, many of our students are
from out-of-state, even out-of-the-sucky-south.)

I believe it is "I want, I want, I want" from _Henderson the Rain

I actually know some one who owns a Hummer.  Right here in largely
unpopulated, mostly rural Maine.  Of course, he's not a native.  He's from
away.  He's my vitreo-retinal eye specialist.

Yes, I know that kind of thing.  But "anymore" isn't that kind of
compound, which is why the thing you're talking about doesn't work with
it.  You aren't suggesting, are you, that it should *always* be written
as "any more," are you?  I would find that quite amazing.

Interesting.  I thought that positive anymore was more North Midland
than South Midland.  Not according to the AHD usage note, taken from

As long as we're into picky editing mode, shouldn't that be asses
instead of ass?  And who are they -- its antecedent isn't clear.

What were the competing terms in the debate?  If they're interested in
what the current term is among researchers/publishers in this field,
it's still AAVE, often pronounced as an acronym -- ah'-vay.

Have any of you scanned your signature into a document?  I'm doing a
letter of support for a grant proposal, and the agency prefers an
e-mailed document in either Word or Wordperfect but only if your
signature can be scanned into it.  It gives instructions that are bad
imho since they make assumptions that you have specific software
(something called Microsoft Photo Shop, I think -- whatever it is, I
don't have it -- also my scanner is in the closet floor).  Anyway,
something occurred to me:  Wouldn't the same effect be achieved by
taking a picture of your signature with a digital camera?

Another question, which I could answer by trying it, of course, is does
the signature show up there when you're working on the document?  I
guess it must, since how else would they see it when receiving the
document.  But maybe it shows up only when the document is printed.
I've never tried putting an image of any kind in a text document.  Maybe
I should try this.  Otoh, I think it might be safer just to use the
snail-mail option.

        I told them that one, and they flat-out rejected it.  I

I'm planning on using snail-mail but am enjoying these questions just

Why did they reject it?  Get them to do some research on the topic and
see which term they find most often.  And if the African American
students think AAVE may be a honkie term, remind them that some of the
most prolific publishers on the topic are African American (Baugh,
Rickford, Smitherman, to name a few of the most prominent).

As for BE, part of the question is whether they prefer "Black" or "AA,"
but BE turned into BEV or BVE as the accepted label a long time ago
because of the felt need of putting "vernacular" into it -- to make
clear that many speakers of <BE> use it only in certain contexts and use
other dialects in many contexts.  "Slang" doesn't work at all as a term
for what we're talking about here since slang has a well-established
meaning, and this ain't it.  Re "ghetto-talk," that suggests that only
ghetto dwellers speak it.  Also, wouldn't it depend on which ghetto?
Did some of the African American students suggest ghetto-talk?  If so,
what do they think of the term "ghetto-blaster" (which actually I
haven't heard in a long time now).  I remember overhearing a funny
conversation at a meeting in Wales a long time ago when the Welsh
conference coordinator was talking to an African American about
equipment for her presentation and said something about a
"ghetto-blaster."  She coolly replied, "I don't know what that is."

(I trust it's clear that my comments are aimed at your students, not at
you.)

OTOH, while I would ship my signature as part of an image of the page
(e.g., TIFF or PDF), I wouldn't ship it as an image embedded in a
word-processing document -- seems like it would be too easy for someone to
pry it out and use it separately.

Assuming you get the contrast very high -- background of 255,255,255 white
and ink of 0,0,0 black in the middle of the lines -- either with the
camera/lighting or in an image manipulation program afterwards.

Yes. I have no idea what the instructions say, but you probably need
more than a 'viewer', you probably need a graphics manipulation
program.

Me?  Criticize you?  Never!  I was only trolling for information about what
happened to the new friend, the old friend, and the foreign friend.   And

Hm. The New Friend disappeared from my life months ago, although the
boat is still in the driveway and I still have some of his stuff.

Nameless is still around as much as ever.

As for Ligniere, all I can say is that he is himself.

Two years ago my use of AAVE started being corrected at NWAV. I was told

would be able to see the signature in the document after pulling it in.
What would you be seeing it with?

Is there something like a statute of limitation that says you will own
100% of the boat after x length of time of its having been deserted in
your driveway?

Who told you that?  And what reason was given?  People like John

So why did you say that anymore should be two words in my posting saying
that I wasn't supposed to talk about religion anymore?  I can't imagine
writing "anymore pie" or saying that there shouldn't be "anymore
discussion."  Re your first example above, to me there would be a
different meaning if you spelled it as two words -- I don't like you any
more [than I liked you earlier] -- as opposed to I don't like you
anymore [any longer].

Rita -- Are your students doing web research?  I was just looking at
John Rickford's website to make sure people like that hadn't suddenly
quit using AAVE while I wasn't paying attention, and I came up some
things I think some of your students might enjoy.  This, for example,
for his AAVE course:

http://www.stanford.edu/~rickford/L73/index.html

High school students might be intimidated by the thought of stuff
designed for a linguistics course at Stanford, but what I've looked at
of it seems quite accessible.

Is he on this week? In an effort to help me become more reclusive, the
newspaper delivery lady wrote me a note yestserday saying that she no
longer will deliver a paper to me because my driveway is dangerous when
it snows, and she has four children, and she doesn't want to risk her
life for me. I have been having the paper delivered for fifteen years,
but no more. I did not feel like driving three miles to buy a paper this
morning or a TV guide. And I won't feel like it tomorrow either. So if
someone knows about Monk, please tell me. Thank you.

Most researchers/publishers in fields of this kind are academics.  Iow,
my contribution to the discussion was clearly identified as terminology
of academics.

Ahhh -- so now we're to the crux of the matter -- that defensive chip
you carry.  Fwiw, not every single person I've ever known connected to a
College of Education has been stupid.

So what does your question mean above?  The very top line?  Never mind.
Whatever reply you might give would be more of your defensive, evasive,
cutsey gobbledygook.

Do they offer delivery by mail?  That wouldn't help on a Sunday, of
course.  Here a mail subscription costs more than a delivery
subscription, but some people prefer it, and it somehow manages to be
same-day delivery -- as in it somehow gets into people's mailboxes the
day it is published.

    AP story in today's Repulsive re the above states clashes "continued for a
fourth straight day with angry Christians attacking Muslims who objected to the
contest on moral grounds."  Farther down, "Mobs of Christians attacked Muslims
in southern neighborhoods...", well you get the point.  Talk about Newspeak.
And the body count being run up by the Religion of Peace is apparently so high
that its being suppressed.  Apparently just writing a letter to editor when you
take exception to a light-hearted newspaper article, one that was even
retracted and apologized for, isn't done in Nigera.

NWAV members. The "V" is the problem. We don't speak about "Southern

One shouldn't cave in to the adversary!  One should keep fighting the
fight that one thinks has god on its side!  I can't muster all that much
excitement over spelling conventions, however.

I hate that I'm missing the last performance of the current SCT play
because I failed to make a reservation early enough.  When I called
yesterday morning, I got a taped message saying all seats were taken for
all the remaining performances.  I'd been planning on going this
afternoon.  Instead I think I'm going to take Spencer out to run on the
North Farm for a little while.

But the V was added to BE because people felt it was needed.  I'm not
sure that I see regional varieties as parallel.  Perhaps Ebonics should
be the term (although I've heard arguments against it also).

That's a good question. My sister-in-law asked much the same, declaring she
couldn't possibly imagine my very traditional (read non-hippie) parents
taking off for an extended trip (six months though originally planned for a
year) in the Orient. Aside from my father being in Korea for the "conflict"
and my mom's travels to Cuba and Hawaii while she was single, neither were
world travellers.

Shortly after my brother was born (we're 18 months apart) my father sold his
liquor store and rented out the flat we lived in (in the building we owned)
and they took off with us to Japan, the Phillipines, Taiwan, Hong Kong and
more. After that, we did the typical US road trips for vacations...and it
wasn't until after my brother and I went to Europe when we were (18 & 16)
that my parents ventured to Europe. My curly hair and my brother's toehead
(sp?  what kind of word is that?) hair...the asian women fawned over us,
from what I hear. My parents have a picture of me managing to using
chopsticks at the age of two. But, I don't think a piece of rice sticking to
one of the chopsticks really counts ;)

I'll have to ask them what drove them to take this trip. To specifically
answer your question....my parents claim it was the easiest thing in the
world to us two young children along. Neither of them are complainers by any
means....not that they see things through rosey colored glasses but they
aren't easily "bothered" by daily travails. I did get ill along the
way....some kind of flu...and depending on the country...the particular
flu's name would change. If we were in Bagio...it was the Hong Kong
Flu....once in Hong Kong... we were told it was the Bagio flu. But it was
nothing serious. They had considered going to India but doctors felt with
young children it might be risky healthwise. I don't know how different
conditions were in the early 60s....but I think people have rightly or
wrongly associated travels to India with some elevated health risk. They
really did want to go there, though.

Probably, but I won't pay it. I really only want the SUnday paper
because the rest of the paper is ludicrously non-newsy. But they said it
confuses the carriers if everyone does not get it every day. The carrier
said she would have them put up a box for the paper out by my mailbox,
but what help is that? She's afraid of the driveway, but she expects me
to toddle out there and across the road to get her silly paper? Delivery
is delivery--it's her damned job. If she can't do it correctly, she
should quit and the paper should get someone who can. I am so steamed
about this, I cannot tell you, but perhaps a hint of it is being
revealed as I type.

Thank you. I will muddle through the rest of the week's programming or
else watch DVDs, but didn't want to miss Monk. I have not seen
"vacation," I think.

        I think you're projecting too much on them.  They just
thought AAVE sounded absurd.  I did hear some interesting
opinions regarding the n-word -- overuse within the
community has taken the edge off it.

        And I'm not a "honkie".  Apparently, I'm a bonafide "gangsta."

        Again, you're way far out ahead of them.  In general, they
use "ghetto" quite a bit -- ie, "big ghetto ass," etc.  I
was happy they were beginning to see the arbitrary nature of
labeling.  I may send them down to the lab to do one day of
research, though.

You would take the picture and put it in a frame in your
word-manipulating program. (I like using a Drawing frame in Word for
any kind of graphic--it's more flexible than the Picture frame.) Then
you would be seeing it with your word processing program.

And your point is ...? Please explain. Not Reading this <service> as often as some others has left some beautiful holes in the procedings here, obviously.

Well yes, I did that, but it is pretty tedious to bring up 1000 screens
and read the whole thing. I went there and got tired by the 2:00
listings for today. Imagine reading the whole thing on line in search of
soomething that may or may not be there. I do not see myself, in any
case, running to the computer at a given time to see what's on "now,"
and then running back to the TV. (I do not have TV in computer
territory.)

All of this is inspiring me to try it just for kicks -- after my camera
batteries are recharged -- I don't want to dig the scanner out of the
closet.  Here are the instructions I referred to earlier:

Is the newspaper online?  Not everything in newspapers seems to make it
to their web pages, of course.  Lots is left out of the online
Starkville Daily News.  TVGuide is online, though.

I think class discussions of that kind are good in many ways --
including making students realize how much fun thinking about language
can be.

Do teenagers even use "honkie"?  I use it with my contemporaries or near
contemporaries.  I should ask my students about it -- or the black
student workers in our office.  One of them was fascinated when I was
telling the two black secretaries about having come upon that section in
the SLA book again where it is said that blacks think that whites smell
like wet dogs.  They (the secretaries), btw, say that they've heard that
not as a general observation but limited instead to whites who've just
come in out of the rain or have come to work with wet hair -- iow, to
wet whites.

Watch for a short white male on BP tomorrow night.  There was a little
blurb in the SDN a couple of days ago saying the Starkville person was
going to be in it.  It named several other tv shows he's been in (not as
a regular -- as short-term characters), but I've forgotten what they
were.

Spencer now smells like oatmeal cookies.  I had forgotten that the last
dog shampoo I bought said something about oatmeal on the label.  I gave
him a bath because I detected a slightly unpleasant odor after our
outing to the campus farm.  Not extreme.  Like he hadn't rolled in fresh
kill or anything like that.  But there was a hint of his having rolled
in maybe some very old kill or very old fecal matter or some such.  I
also wanted to make sure he hadn't picked up anything like a tick
there.  So now he's a clean, oatmeal-scented beauty.

I was surprised at how much cotton is still unpicked.  I'm sorry that
cotton season is almost over because I love the view down the steep hill
from the eonology lab to the cotton fields below.  It's a pleasant view
even <off season>, but it's especially appealing when the cotton is
doing its thing.

        I agree.  That's why I throw them in sometimes.  Ellie
sometimes gets nervous when I do this because often the
language gets a little inappropriate and we stray into edgey
territory, but the students enjoy it and they think we're
goofing off.

        Ellie is my CWC partner -- she's from special and co-teaches
a couple of classes with me.  She's fantastic.

        I think honkie is a 60's word.  I'm not sure my kids would
know what it means, but maybe I'll ask them this week just
for kicks.  We did talk about whites... but all I can
remmber them coming up with is "cracker" and "hoosier."

So we have something in common. I cannot subscribe to the KNS because it
is stolen off the sidewalk almost daily if I do. We tried a mailbox on the
outside of the bldg for a while - but internal problems at KNS apparently
ended that.

It IS delivered to boxes into which one must put 2 quarters, and there is
one in front of my bldg. I think it is too expensive, so I buy it part
of the time, read it elsewhere part of the time, skip it part of the time.
The website is terrible, unfortunately.

You're into jargon.  What's a CWC partner?  And what does "from special"
mean?  Special Ed?

I think of it as older than that.  Seems like I've always known it, but
maybe not.

        Class Within a Class -- the class is set up to be part
regular students and part kids with some sort of diagnosed
issue who are mainstreamed (or included, which is the new
term).  And so there are two teachers -- the regular teacher
(me) and a special education teacher.  St. Louis County has
an unsual thing called Special School District, so the
special ed. teachers in the county all work for SSD
regardless of what building they're in.  SSD also has
self-contained schools.

I've known it since at least the late 1950s, and I think I have seen it in
40s literature.

I looked it up at onelook.com and they have a cite for the AHD (from
Wolof), but the online AHD doesn't list it.

Ah, they list it under honky, which is how I've always thought it was
spelled.

I am in need of some more flannel sheets.  My old ones that I've used
every winter night for years now are getting sadly holy.  But I'm
mightily confused by the many different offerings on LL's website.  I
want some that feel exactly like the ones I've got, but I have no idea
whether my current ones are 5-oz or 4.7-oz, to mention the difference
between "ultrasoft" and "heather," the two most reasonably priced:

        The difference is the weight.  The "ultrasoft" are 4.7 and
the "heather" are 5 -- "heather" I think refers to the
color, not the flannel itself.

        I don't know what you have, but I find my LE 4.7's to be
pretty darn nice.

But the heather ones come in various colors, which made me wonder about
that name.  I'm thinking that the ones I have are probably the
"ultrasoft" 4.7 since the description there says they're LLB's most
popular sheets.  I would try to wait until they're on sale to buy some
more, but I remember looking last spring, thinking they'd be on sale,
and they weren't.  Or maybe it was that only certain sizes were, like
twin maybe.

I was later than usual putting them on this year.  Didn't do it until
yesterday.  Already I'm looking forward to bedtime because I reveled in
the wonderfulness of those sheets last night.  I even slept later than
usual this morning because it just felt so good to be snuggled into
flannel sheets.  It's like the feeling of swimming when I haven't done
it in a long time -- I forget how good it feels.

        "Heather" usually refers to a sort of mottled look in any color.


        I think I read too many catalogs.

Just noticed that they're "heathered" not "heather."  Don't know exactly
what it means to be heathered, but that's ok since I've decided to go
with the 4.7 "ultrasofts" anyway.  Either that or a patchwork set, but
the patchwork set would end up costing about $10 more, so I think I'll
do the solid.  The question now is color.  I have denim-colored blankets
and comforter, but the ultrasofts offer "medium blue" rather than "denim
blue."  (The heathered ones offer denim blue.)  That might be too much
sameness anyway.  I'm thinking I might go with yellow.

I love playing with the color charts.  You can click on a color and
watch the picture change colors, but even more fun is to go to the "in
depth" box and play with mixing and matching colors.  Probably I'll just
go with yellow for all three parts, though.

Meadow floral is nice also.  And getting something like meadow floral or
patchwork or blueberries would be only $9 more than solid yellow.

I'm strongly leaning toward meadow floral now, but laurel bouquet is
also nice.

$9 is a heck of a lot extra. How much are the sheets?

I don't see the difference between $70 and $79 as huge.  Tis done now.
No more questions on the sheet subject:

|Thanks for shopping at llbean.com! Your order is now complete.

I went with the laurel bouquet.  It's a nice compromise re the yellow
and blue thoughts.  I noticed something interesting when just poking
around.  There was a button to click to look at the laurel bouquet
percale sheets, which for some reason I looked at on a whim.  They're
more expensive than the flannel sheets.  I would've thought flannel
would be more expensive.

Remember the good old days when LLB always had free shipping?  I hated
when that changed.

Shopping at a market on Sutherland yesterday, i noticed a box of green
beans, cleaned and broken into pieces at about the same time that I saw
the sign "broke beans available next week - place orders now." My query -
"What are broke beans?" - amused everyone around me. It turned out that
boxes of half-runner and pole beans, ready to cook, will be available, so
I orderd a box (lb) of each. They look marvelous.

Have I mentioned that a used-food store has opened in Starkville?  I
keep forgetting to go check it out.  I don't really understand how it
works.  Its name isn't "used food" -- it's something like "second time
around" or "second chance."  Somehow turns me off a bit.

Nor do I. But I'd rather slit my wrists with a nailfile than pay $70

Guess where I saw my first stretch hummer? Just outside of the
Crazy Horse, Chicago's premier dumbass strip club for the affluent
male. Since "Crazy Horse" is such a witty homonymic joke, perhaps
"Strech Hummer" should also be, heh? Uh huh huh huhuhuh ...

The chauffeur of the vehicle was fine, though. He was laughing
with us--he clearly comprehended the absurdity of the world's
ugliest automobile.

Have you sheet shopped lately?  I don't find that out of line at all for
sheets -- as in for the total of one flat, one fitted, two pillow
cases.  Where can you pay less than that?  Hmm.  I bet there are
places.  I slept on some unbelievably horrible sheets at my mother's
house that her embezzling care-givers had bought somewhere.  Perhaps
Wmart.

It's what we've discussed before:  we make choices in how to spend our
money, and different people make different choices.  I want to sleep on
decent sheets and dry myself with decent towels.  I also will spend
whatever it takes to have comfortable shoes that I like.  Some people
would not care about those things but would instead spend money on
expensive food or going out to movies or hiring somebody to cut their
grass or clean up their house or whatever.

I think you should get the matching shower curtain.  It looks really
pretty.   I notice that in the solid color flannels you don't have to buy
the sheets as a set.  I like that better because I don't use a top
sheet.  The comforter cover is enough of a top sheet.

That depends on exactly what kinds of stuff this used-food store sells.
I know that there are places around here, including the MSU cafeteria,
that will let people do jobs like wash dishes in exchange for food.  I'd
probably rather do that than shop at a used-food store.  As I said, it
depends on what this store is really like.  One of these days I'm going
to check it out.

Bed, Bath, and Beyond has wonderful Egyptian cotton sheets, and so
does K-Mart. You can get a set of sheets there for about $30--but I
don't know how much flannel is. I don't use flannel sheets. I don't
like them.

I can make the same choices--I just choose to shop places that sell
them for cheaper prices. (This has always been the case--I hate
spending big bucks on sheets. I've only worn out one set of sheets,
and those lasted nearly 30 years.)

Why do they ship free to you?  But I bet it equals out since you have to
pay sales tax.  I am happy to support the Maine economy.  I like Maine.
And I'm a long-time fan of Leaping Larry.  I remember the feeling of awe
the first time I went into his real store in the early '70s.  I still
sometimes wear the pendant I bought that day.  That was when we drove
all the way to Nova Scotia with a canoe on top of the Fiat -- a canoe we
ended up using only once on that trip.

Speaking of liking Maine, I finally got around to sending e-mail to my
WH friends about Acadiafest last night and got a nice reply this morning
saying that I am booked for early July.  Katherine said they'd be happy
to meet my plane in Bangor and that I could borrow her car for running
back and forth to BH.  Apparently I failed to say that I was driving.  I
told them that I would be just crashing in WH but spending most of my
time in BH, and I invited them to come to the BH events.  Katherine said
that surely we'd find some chat time in WH -- that they eschew BH
between Memorial Day and Labor Day.

Anyway, I'm very much looking forward to Acadiafest.  It's time for me
to make another drive to New England.  As I've said many times before, I
love that drive.  I've always liked New England, btw.  If I had to live
somewhere cold, it would definitely be in the Northeast.

How does the ferry work between WH and BH?  I forgot to mention that to
Katherine.  Like if I'm staying in WH and coming over to BH, should I do
it the old-fashioned way -- driving through Ellsworth -- or should I
take the ferry?

But does MSU's cafeteria just feed you, or give you food you can take
with? IOW, how do your five children get fed? The places I've been to
(I wouldn't call them 'used food stores') specialized in a) dented
cans and b) mass quantities.

But I don't have a shower beside my bed.  Actually, I've been thinking
lately about how I'd really like to take down the glass shower doors in
the bathroom that's sort of near my bedroom.  The <fittings> or whatever
you call it look dirty, and I just plain don't much like the
contraption.  I was staring at it just today, wondering what I'd find on
the tile walls and on the tub if I tried removing the doors and frame.
I'd rather have a shower curtain.

Yes, the ones I was on the verge of ordering -- the solid yellow ones --
you buy individually.  In your case that would definitely be the way to
go.  In my case it was the same as ordering a set since I would've
ordered individually the exact components offered in the set.  The only
difference was that the set was $79 while the individuals would've been
$70 (two sheets at $25 each, pillow cases at $20).  Hmm.  Now that I
think about it, I could've left off the pillow cases.  I don't care
whether they're flannel.  It's my lower body that likes the flannel.  Oh
well.  I am not displeased with my laurel bouquet decision.

I use a single cotton fitted sheet. I have been using the ssme one for
about 7 years. I had to buy a set to get it (at Tuesday Morning), so I
occasionally put the non-fitted sheet on the bed - the fitted one will
last a long time, since I alternate occasionally. I probably paid about
$40 for the set.

(I hate flannel.)

Do they call it remainders when it's food?

I just looked and found the flannel sheets at BB&B far more expensive
than those at LLB ($40 at BB&B to $25 at LLB).  But that's not the only
reason I wouldn't want to order them from BB&B.  I've noticed that
stores sometimes call sheets "flannel" when they aren't at all my idea
of flannel.  I looked at some at TJMax in Tupelo last year.  They were
labeled flannel but were that t-shirt-style stuff that I can't stand.
Since I've bought flannel sheets before from LLB (and lucked out in that
they really were what I consider flannel), I know that they're ok.  I'd
be hesitant to order from BB&B since I don't know what they consider
flannel.

The holes in my flannel sheets are perhaps Bernard related.  His little
claws were hard on sheets.  I have some cotton sheets that are well over
thirty years old.  (But I alternate cotton sheets because I have more
than one set.  I use the same flannel sheets every night all winter.)
Re choosing to shop at places that sell for cheaper prices, my quick
glance at the BB&B website shows it to be quite expensive, at least for
flannel.

Mass quantities as in that particular store?  That couldn't possibly
work in a small town.  The dented cans might, though.  I noticed a
couple of weeks ago that a can of clam chowder I had bought at Wmart was
majorly dented, but I decided that I was much too old to worry about
lead poisoning.  That struck me as funny in a way since I would never
serve Spencer food from a dented can.  But I ate that clam chowder just
yesterday, I think it was.

I never suggested you order from BB&B. I wouldn't order sheets from a
catalog--you need to feel them.

Whatever. I also go to the outlet mall. That's where I bought my
comforter 2 years ago, for $10.

Extremely intelligent of Katherine to not want to travel to Bar Harbor on
July 4th.  I wouldn't want to either.  That's the nice thing about living
here.  You don't have to put up with the traffic to drive here.

How does it work?  Well, it's a boat.  It leaves from downtown Bar Harbor,
motors across the bay, and stops at a not-very-convenient place in Winter
Harbor.   I don't know the schedule.  It's an hour's drive.  The ferry is
much, much shorter.  But then you would be tied to the schedule, whatever
it is.

Huh? I mean 'mass quantities' as in 'industrial-sized cans'. Those

I bet the one in Starkville won't last long.  Things like that never
do.  We had a Job Lots for a while, but it closed within a year for lack
of business.  Guess this must be a town of <big spenders>.  And that
reminds me of something I found way weird.  First Methodist Church
recently hired a music director at what I thought was a pretty fat
salary -- can't remember now exactly what, but it was more than English
professors make.  He came up before moving here to look for a place to
live, went around looking at houses, and then reneged on his acceptance
of the job, saying that the cost of houses in Starkville was
ridiculously high and that he couldn't afford to live here.  (I got that
story from somebody who works in the church office.  The publicized, as
in newspaper, word was simply that this person had accepted the job and
then changed his mind and that they've reopened the search.)

You're posting <city>.  Should I instead of ordering pay Furrbabies to
take care of Spencer and pay a motel to spend the night in order to
travel to the closest Bed, Bath, & Beyond?  (Quite possibly there's one
in Jackson, which would mean I could do a same-day trip, but that's hard
at this time of year because of the short days.  Since my night-vision
sux, I don't drive on highways after dark.)

That's nice.  Maybe I should skip off to the closest outlet mall.
There's said to be one in Foley, Alabama, which is near Mobile.  That's
only about six hours from here.

You said poor.  If you make too much money to qualify for food stamps,
you're not poor.

I'm not sure what an "industrial-sized can" is.  I would think it might
present problems for a less-than-industry-sized family.

So if you wanted to go to WH on a July day, which would you choose --
the road route or the ferry?  I'm leaning toward the road route.  It's
not that I have to make these decisions tonight, of course.  I can just
<go with the flow> when I get there.  I've decided that almost certainly
I'm going to add two things to my car before this trip -- cruise control
and a cd-player.  The cruise-control will help the fight against
speeding tickets, and playing happy music in the car will make me happy.

Two more fine places to get a quick lunch are gone now: Taza, where,
among other "international" cuisine, you could get "basmati rice"
made exactly like at home, and Sunny Cafe a.k.a. two Polish ladies,
amogn other things the only remaining place in the loop to stuff
your face with fine stuffed cabbage ...

However, let's not despair--in their place, there are 85 new Cosis,
Corner Bakeries and Alontis. They have exciting new design elements
like striped awnings and some fantastic presentation themes. I believe
there are even times when these places are NOT overflowing with trixies
asking for a baked potato with nothing or 3 milliounces of dressing and
one pea on seven beds of lettuce, and other formless horrors ...

Oh, doubtless "Janet Hardy" knows practitioners of shared accounts
who have found it liberating and empowering, but I consider it foul
and perverted for the majorty of humanity. I wouldn't even write
to an owner of a joint account.

I've been meaning to ask whether anybody has communicated with Verdant
lately.  I wish she'd come back and update us on what's happening in her
life -- her moving, her Jayness or lack thereof, etc.  And I want to
know that Amy is adapting well to whatever is going on.

I find the Bed, Bath, & Beyond store-locator pretty funny.  You enter
your zip code, but there's nothing that asks you how far you're willing
to drive.  My normal answer on something like that on a website is 100
miles.  If BB&B had asked the question, the answer would've been <tough
shit -- you're outa luck>.  But instead it listed stores all over the
southeast as being near my zip code -- in Atlanta and New Orleans and
all kinds of such places.  Well, ok -- I can drive to Atlanta in under
six hours and to New Orleans in about six hours.  It did also list some
closer ones, though:  Jackson, Birmingham, and Memphis.  So I can indeed
go fondle their flannel if I set out at daybreak, go straight to BB&B to
fondle sheets, and then hop back on the highway and head home
immediately in order to be home by dark.  I think I'd rather order from
LLB for $25 a sheet than pay BB&B $40 a sheet plus the cost in time and
gas to go fondle theirs.

Explain.  What are the definitions of "poor" and the qualifications for
getting food stamps?

It would be a tough choice.  If you are driving, you'll definitely want to
leave the island early on the evening of the 4th and not get caught up in
fireworks traffic.  Then there is parking.   Lots of people will be coming
in for the parade on the morning of the 4th and it will be difficult to
find a parking spot in town.  I guess you can come to our house, leave your
car on the street in our neighborhood, and walk down to the parade.  Maybe
I'd take the ferry on the 4th.

In your situation, what I'd do is book two nights at a motel in Bar Harbor,
July 4th and 5th, so that I wouldn't have to worry about that commute and
could stay visiting with wordslers as late as I wanted.  Because you don't
like to drive after dark, you'll have to watch the fireworks with Katherine
from the other side of the Bay -- with your <real> friend rather than with us.

Ok, I found one web site.  It gives annual income rather than monthly
income, but I think the comparison with the above site makes it come out
pretty close to the same if you divide by 12:

Don't gimme that <real friend> crappola!  I'm not Giggles!  Katherine is
one of my oldest and best friends of my life, but who is it that I'm in

Yes, freezers are necessary to freeze things unless you live in a very
cold climate. Many poor people have freezer compartments in their
refrigerators. I'm sure that Karen has.

As for what is poor, it is relative, of course, depending on one's
circumstances, where one lives, etc. But the government in its wisdom
doesn't take location into account, afaik.

Here:
"Food Stamp Eligibility

"Applying for Food Stamps
"Food Stamp eligibility is determined by looking at a
household’s gross income and taking deductions for certain expenses to
see how  much money the household has left for food at the end of the
month. Assets are not considered
when determining Food Stamp Eligibility."

In other words, you can own a house, a car, and more, but still be poor
in the food stamp sense.

I had thought I was done with being poor--I do hope this isn't a
precursor to my old age.

Each state administers its own food stamp program, under the federal
umbrella. I believe that the feds give each state X dollars and then the
states determine how it will be distributed. I suppose that there are
other state agencies that help the poor. But never enough.

At the risk of sounding like a Republican, I must say that I don't see
how living in what sounds like an expensive house and eating out and
going to movies and generally enjoying a good life strikes me as poor.
Iow, I don't see that Karen is living a life of poverty.  I've never
considered myself poor at any time in my life, yet I have certainly had
periods of time in my adult life when I lived for a week or more with no
money for food and very little in my house to eat.  Given Karen's food
ideas, I don't think she could have made it on what I made it on --
strange findings in the kitchen cabinets like a box of stale grains of
some kind, etc.  And food is just one example of many.  I should add
that my poor periods were not a result of bad planning or bad financial
management.  I was just plain poor, given your definition of poor.  I
never thought of it in exactly those terms.  I just thought I was
youngish and that life would get better if I kept working hard and
didn't squander money.  And that has been true.

Yes and no. I'm not poor enough to get the state health insurance, but
I can go to a free clinic, funded in part by the donations of
Nameless. It's a bizarrely small world, and being uninsured sucks.

Yes and no.  I am a great believer in helping people who are truly in
need and am therefore not a Republican.  But I am also a great believer
in working for a living.  I still don't quite understand this
"unemployment" thing.  I had thought it was gov't money, then somebody
said here that it wasn't -- that it was insurance paid by the worker and
the employer.  If it's insurance, then that's fine.  If it's gov't
money, then I believe that it should go to people who are unemployed and
cannot find any work at all.  I do not believe it should go to people
who are unemployed but are picky about which jobs they will accept.
Iow, if somebody is not willing to accept a job cleaning toilets in a
public building, that's fine -- but it's not fine if taxpayer money is
supporting that person's refined sensibilities.

You're not looking. I haven't been to a movie I paid for in several
months; I haven't been to a movie I paid more than $1.50 for in over a
year. I haven't paid more than $5 for eating out (and that, rarely) in
over a year. My house is not cheap; it's slightly above the median
house price in Austin, and was very affordable at my previous salary.

I'm 'enjoying a good life' because I basically try to enjoy whatever
comes my way--and usually succeed. If it looks from the outside like I
have a great life, it's because I made it that way on no money, not
because I'm squandering my money on <entertainment>.

I do have a full pantry. I spend $10-15/wk on food--I judiciously shop
the sales. I would guess that I'd end up with better tasting food than
you did just because I'm a better cook, not because I'm spending more
money.

Well, I'm not young. And I haven't squandered my money. Yet I'm not
sure that life will get better.

But you also believe that I could get hired to clean toilets in a
public building--you and Dan. And I know that I can't.

What is the "unemployment issue"?  I thought that was about insurance,
not about gov't food for the poor.  I'm very much for gov't help for the
truly needy.

One disadvantage of a DSL line, btw, is that the phone can ring while
you're online.  An old friend, now in New Mexico, just called me and
talked for ages.  I've not only lost my train of thought re list stuff,
but it's also time now to turn off the computer and go snuggle into my
holy flannel sheets.

I am absolutely and without a doubt against the medical situation in
this country.  And I still don't understand why Hillary's plan wasn't
considered a good thing.  It struck me as a great thing.  I find it
abhorrent that medical care is not a given -- a taxpayer-funded right of
every citizen, regardless of income or employment status or anything
else.  It should be like police protection.

I guess I wasn't paying attention.  It just seems that you're always
going out to movies or to eat.  As one who hasn't been to a movie
theater in who knows how many years and hasn't paid for eating out in
eons except when out of town, I guess I'm not good at picking up on the
poverty implications.  I consider that <normal life>.

Ah so.  I hadn't realized how much you disliked my cooking.  Some people
find it quite good.

You're a risk-taker.  I've said many times in the past that I admire
your courage in launching out the way you have, though I would never do
it.  I've never seen as risks  some things that some people consider
risks -- things like risks to personal safety -- like wandering up dirt
paths lost in Beijing or living without a smoke-detector or whatever.
But I've never been willing to give up what I consider basic security --
a basic, perhaps boring, job but with a fair amount of security, medical
insurance, etc.  I can't handle <life on the edge> in that respect.
Many times I've felt restless through the years and have thought about
moving, but the thing that held me back was the thought of getting
enough years into the same retirement system.

Debasement?  I'm not sure what you mean.  Are you saying that some
people should be considered <above> cleaning toilets and that it would
be debasing for them to have to clean toilets?  If that's what you mean,
then yes.  I do not consider myself above cleaning toilets and am not
sure why anybody else should be.

So you've applied for toilet-cleaning positions and have been turned
down.  What about working at Wmart?  Or at a convenience store?  I see
signs here regularly offering work at convenience stores.  Also
restaurants sometimes.  If there are no such jobs in Austin, why not
move?  I can guarantee you that there are such jobs here.

?  I don't understand.  Bankruptcy is something else I am very much
unsympathetic toward.  If you incur debts, you pay them, even if it
takes you the rest of your life.  I have no sympathy toward people who
run up credit cards or whatever and then throw up their hands and say,
"Sorry!  I can't pay you.  You're just out that money you loaned me."  I
find that immoral.  Business situations may be more complicated.  I'm
talking now about individuals.  There's no reason for an individual to
incur debts he/she can't pay.  If your job isn't secure, you don't run
up debts.  If you buy a house and then find yourself unable to pay the
mortgage, you sell the house.  Etc.

It's unusual in larger cities, I would think.

That's what I thought working at Dell was. There had never been a
layoff, and I know people who have worked there for 15 years.

The truth is, no job is safe, except perhaps working for a state
government like you do.

Retirement? I don't think I'll be able to.

Because I have nearly two years of equity sunk into my house, and it's
a down market. I'd lose the little equity I had if I sold now. And
even if I moved, why would the job situation change. People aren't
hiring me for menial jobs because they think I'm too smart. Is that
going to change in MS? Do most toilet cleaners have multiple graduate
degrees?

Life is seldom that clean. If my neighbor doesn't do something fast,
within six days, she'll probably end up declaring bankruptcy, through
no fault of her own.

I taped this and just started watching it--it looks fabulous. I can't
believe Adam Beach (the guy from Windtalkers) and Wes Studi (from Last
of the Mohicans) are in this *together*. It's on tomorrow night, too,
here, if you missed it. Bless Robert Redford.

I've been out of town and had set the list
on digest.  The digest form being used
now is confusing.  It gives a list of topics
but then includes only a few messages,
and those in attachments.  Weird.
So I just deleted all.  Hope you didn't
say much.

This usage is wrong. Misleading, inaccurate, and WRONG.
There is no such thing as "cloning with". You clone
something and that's about all you can do. Please, let
us have the courage to discontinue this ridiculous usage
immediately.

Also, please recognize that "Rita" is a dangerous usage.
Use "Florissant O.G." instead ...

I would advise against this, unless it is some extremely temporary
thing with a known end-date. If it's in any way similar to driving
a cab, beware. The streets are full of people with degrees and hopes
of a good job who started driving a cab out of desperation. And of
course, like all degrading, fatiguing and dangerous jobs, it asserted
its uncanny ability to suck everyone in. The person most admired is
someone who refused to drive a cab even at the depth of depression.
Now there are many who enjoy it and are overall happy in a sense.
But you can't help feeling they could have been doing something
much more suited to their personalities.

As for moving--Dr Maynor has already stated that it is trivially
easy to move within America, at the drop of a hat. Read the question
against that backdrop ...

I saw a movie yesterday which is probably not of interest for the professor: Sex and Lucia. There was some very beautiful photography in this film, especially some of the interiors from the magic island.

What does city size have to do with those things?  I guess if you live
in a town so small that there are no restaurants or movie theaters, you
couldn't go out to eat or to movies, of course, but otherwise I don't
see a connection.

People working for the state also get fired, although there's more job
security than in many other kinds of jobs.  Otoh, working for the state
is less secure than owning your own successful business -- like a
medical or dental or law practice or whatever.

I don't know what the credentials are of most toilet cleaners, but I
have certainly known people working at Wmart with multiple graduate
degrees.  And re job situations being different in different places, the
unemployment rate is different in different places, suggesting fewer
people looking for jobs in some places than in others.

That does indeed sound strange.  I'm certainly glad it wasn't that way
when I was in Japan since I used digest mode that whole year.

But you would've liked that I've been declared a Republican!  And that I
even agree with it to some extent -- though not to a full extent --
there are still some big difference between my views and Republican
views.

So what would they have done if they didn't make that choice?  Sleep

Yes, it is, especially if you're unemployed and therefore don't have to
worry about finishing up the work you're doing and finding new work in
the new place.

Huh?  Why do you think I think that?  I'd rather see you teaching than
working in a store because I think the youth of the nation need you.
But I certainly have never thought that working in a store was <beneath>
you or anybody else.  I find your statement quite strange.

        I'm wondering how eating in the cafeteria every day and
driving through burger joints is not eating out.

Ah!  In that case I eat out five times a week -- and a sixth time once
every five or sixth months when I go to Wendy's drive-up window.

You can cook??!  The only evidence I've seen onlist that you can cook is
that you bake things for your extravagant Christmas parties.  For yourself,
you seem to warm things up in a toaster oven and eat them leaning over the
sink.

I agree.  I recently read _Nickle and Dimed_ which was a seriously flawed
book about an upper middle class reporter who steps down into the lower
classes to see if it is possible to pay rent and eat decently while working
a minimum wage job.  It isn't.  She takes her upper middle class values
with her and feels very debased cleaning the shit out of other people's
toilets and picking up after chubby Walmart shoppers.

However,  I think what Rita meant by debased here is that you seem to
believe that before a person should have the right to any government-funded
help they should first sell their house, trade in their car, lose their
friends, eat at a subsistence level, and take any job offered no matter how
unqualified they might be for the work.   I disagree with that.  I found
Karen's explanation that working a minimum wage job would mean forfeiting
her unemployment benefits while still being unable to pay her mortgage.

In the seriously flawed book, _Nickle and Dimed_, the reporter applied for
minimum wage jobs by hiding her education.  She presented herself as a
recently divorced woman of age 50 who had been out of the work force for
some years.  Even at that, she was unable to get a job as a chamber maid in
the motels and inns of Key West simply because she was white and spoke
English.  She was forced to take a job as a waitress.

Heaven forfend it should happen to you, Natalie, that you needed a job.
You would be overqualified for all of the jobs you have suggested.
Companies do not hire people perceived as too smart. If you went to
Walmart for a job they'd say, "Miss Natalie, bless your heart, I'm sure
you can find some employment much better suited to your abilities, but
thank you for thinking of us."

Thanx.  Don't know why I didn't think of that.
But I was just curious as to howcome the
digest comes as attachments.

Still have the headache.  Comes and goes.

OK. Ken is essentially unemployed, let's say. He is moving to
California. He does not have big money put aside. To move his
belongings, which weigh less than 1000 lbs. The minimum charge for all
the moving companies I can find is about $2,000.00, whether it's 1,000
lbs. or 500 lbs. He has no furniture, just computers, clothes, books,
and his paintings.

It is not easy for him to make this move. I cannot see how any poorish
person or family can move easily unless they live in their car (if they
have one), and never change clothes.

You are in a world of unreality.

For probably 99% of the populace, jobs are not secure anymore, not even
for the most diligent and perfect employee.

For most of my life, I rented a trailer to move. I never paid anywhere
near $2000 to move, even across the country.

People in cities, IME, meet their friends in restaurants, and go to
movies as a social thing. I don't know why you don't do these things;
I'm assuming you have other venues you meet your friends in.

And the last time you moved across country was in ...?
Ken's move is difficult because they are driving his fiancee's car that
is fitted for hand controls because her legs are paralyzed. This car is
a small one and not suited to pulling a trailer through the mountains.

But even if he could have used a trailer, it requires money to move.
Renting the trailer, motels and gas along the way, rent at the
destination end (two months' worth, prolly), plus phone and utilities.

Have I not mentioned cooking stuff for dinner guests?  I don't do it
extremely often, but it always seems to be a success when I do it.

I'm not really sure what the difference between "warming things up" and
cooking is.  When I cook, I do use the toaster oven since it's exactly
like using the big oven in every way except that it doesn't have all
that extra space to be heated -- iow, it's more efficient.  I've cooked
for four in the toaster ovens on various occasions, although I tend more
often to use the crockpot for the main dish.  And I use my LLBean
asparagus steamer for cooking asparagus usually.

I often stand at the sink to eat when it's just me.  I don't see any
particular need to sit down since I'm usually sitting before and after
-- iow, my legs aren't tired or anything like that.

And it is so practical. Anything you spill can be washed away so easily,
you don't need a napkin, there are no extra steps to be taken to get
food to table or plates back to the sink. It is the ultimate efficiency.

Wouldn't this depend on what kind of place you rented and what you mean
by eating "decently"?

I said nothing about being unqualified for the work.  That would be for
the potential employer to decide, imho.  And how does losing friends fit
into the picture??  Why would one lose friends?

I don't know--maybe run up a debt they weren't absolutely certain they

Thanks for clarifying that, K-R-N. I had a lot of difficulty
understanding it. The only thing I could come up with was that
some people just don't like food that much ...

I have come pretty close to "eating standing up" ... when you
eat alone, who cares. Except I have only come as close as "eating
while watching TV", which took years. Either I like eating too
much, or "dining" behavior is too ingrained in me.

In the case of the seriously flawed book, _Nickle and Dimed_, a place to
rent was anything with a roof and four walls.   One thing the author
learned was that minimum wage people can't save the money for first and
last month's rent and thus often live with family, friends, or coworkers in
motel rooms that they rent by the week.   Eating decently meant taking in
enough nutrients to continue to remain on one's feet for eight and ten hour
shifts.

During my weekend in the quad cities of
Iowa/Illinois I saw the opening Xmas
concert of Manheim Steamroller.  Any of you
ever seen them?

Also saw I-Max Lewis and Clark Expedition.

I miss it sometimes.

I think what I sometimes find attractive is the fact that one day's work is
completely unrelated to the next day's. You go in, you work, you make money,
you leave.

And the late-night lifestyle, but that's a whole nother thing.

Yes.  I believe she was in row 3 section B.

I understand the appeal of work like that, but not the appeal of
waitressing per se.

That would indeed make for difficulties.

No doubt about that!

That might have been the one I saw at the Museum of Westward Expansion a

The last I-Max full-length feature I saw was Beauty and the Beast. I

You know what heather gray looks like versus plain gray, right? Suppose that
effect is heathering and can be applied to any color?

unemployment benefits. I don't know what's a reasonable cut-off.

Thanks, Bonnie. I couldn't get it to work on Netscape at all, but did
get it going on IE. I am but a humble Librarian in my initial game. I do
not have time for it--I wish it didn't take so long. Because it is not
easy to access, I won't be tempted to play it much, but it is a very
good game.

I hope so.  I have to hide it at work and among my relatives.
One of the reasons I stopped attending church was that
people would talk about the "gay agenda."  It seems to me
that the gay agenda is the same as the straight one:  to find
love, to make friends, to have a good-paying job and a nice
home, and to find happiness.

That's not addictive. That's bloodthirsty and competitive.
To cure Dr Voigtlander of this unpleasant character trait,
I am memorizing the scrabble dictionary, so I can rout Dr

Speaking of sex and football, oops, I mean, speaking of GAYs[tm],
have you noticed how hilarious these bizarrely deviant people are?
You know who I am talking about--homosexual males who frequently
enjoy dancing at homosexual clubs with other males. I have sensed
that there are tens of them in Chicago and I think I saw one in
New York. I was at this deli kind of place, just trying to act
out the scene of eating at 3am, knowmsain, with nobody else in
the place and a book to accompany the subsequent coffee cup, who
gets the chance to do this anymore. I was trying to decide on what
to order when a highly well-dressed trim gentleman entered the place.
Since he looked pretty sure about what he wanted, and also from a
people-watching P.O.V., I said why don't you go first. My decision
was well-made, because this gentleman ordered--get this--a freakin
cinnamon raisin bagel with tofu cream cheese! Hoo boy, that was one
master combination! I felt weak with mirth. Oh these GAYs[tm]

I am not fond of them at all. Two of them took five more minutes
than normal getting their coffee at the coffee shop (Cafe Chicago),
causing me to miss the train.

It's hard being gay in Tulsa; most people here assume that
everyone is a straight, born-again Protestant.  I guess having
Oral Roberts University and several Protestant TV stations
here (to get the Catholic viewpoint, one has to have digital
cable or a dish) strengthens that viewpoint.

What gave you that idea? That is not the straight agenda at all.
And what kind of backward church still talks about gays, when

Why am I more overqualified than the people I've known who have gotten
such jobs?  Some people do it as moonlighting, some after retirement,
and some after being fired (i.e., not getting tenure) from an academic
job.  One person I know did it because he was tired of the academic
world.  He was a Professor of German who moved to somewhere like
Minnesota to be with an old girlfriend (left his wife here, but later
she moved to the same town he and his girlfried are in).  Anyway, he got
a job at Walmart there.

But you've added elements to the fact that it's easy to move within the
US.  For one thing, you've picked an example of a very long-distance
move.  That is of course more complicated and expensive than moving a
closer distance.  And you have introduced the idea of professional
movers.  Sure, moving can be expensive if you hire professionals, etc.

It happens all the time.  Look at the movement of Mexican laborers in
recent years in search of work.

That is probably true.  But it doesn't in any way change what I said

I see my friends on campus five days a week and many of them in Walmart
on weekends.  Sometimes people have parties, large ones or small dinner
parties.  Most people I know who go out to eat or to movies do it with
their spouses.

Law is probably iffier than medicine or dentistry.  People need body and
tooth care.  I've never known of a doctor or dentist who had to close
shop because of not having any patients.  I've known tons of people
working for the state who have been fired.  As I said in the part
missing above, though, I think working for the state is in general more
secure than working for private companies.  That was my point about my
personal desire for security and therefore my not being willing to
follow the impulses I've had at times to set out on a new career path.

It is?  Why?  I don't think you quite understand that not everybody is
as obsessed with food as you seem to be.  I remember in childhood being
annoyed when I had to stop whatever I was doing because it was time to
eat.  I still feel that way.

The problem is that the insecurity of people's jobs is, for the most
part, a new thing. And they may already have run up debts.

Well, not everyone can get hired by the state, either. I've applied
for several positions with them.

What does that clarify?  I hadn't really thought about the relative ease
of moving when employed or moving when unemployed until this
discussion.  It strikes me that it would be easier if unemployed.
Unlike moving to another country, one doesn't have to show
proof-of-employment or whatever to move to another state.  There aren't
agents at state borders asking for appropriate visas/papers.  And it's a
given, of course, that it would be easier without children since there
wouldn't be the changing-schools/leaving-friends hassles, etc.

Because you're not giving yourself the same courtesy you would someone
else; you do this a lot. Your refusal to ask for help is a flavor of
the same thing.

I am not obsessed with food, but I do enjoy it, and the whole, um,
what did Tushar call it? Dining experience?

So do I, but I try to eat at a table.

Yes, I think it is.  How did you find that?  Does this mean that our Cafe
Milagro is a chain??!

Not every place demands first and last month's rent.  The people renting
my house don't pay any such thing.  I can't remember ever having paid
any such thing either, but I will grant that the last time I rented was
a very long time ago.

It is well known that there's a correlation between low incomes and low
educational levels and lack of nutritional knowledge.  I don't doubt
that a good many minimum-wage people don't eat decently.  But I do doubt
that it's because it can't be done.

This depends upon not only the distance but also the style of your
move.  I've seen people move fairly long distances on very little
money.  They have sometimes gotten deposits etc. returned in the place
they're leaving, giving them enough money to pay for gas to drive to the
state they're moving to, sometimes straight through, sometimes stopping
and sleeping in the car at roadside parks.  They've arrived in the new
place and rented a hovel, costing no more than what they were paying in
the place they left.  If they don't have enough money for niceties like
telephones, they just don't have them put in.  Most people do need water
and electricity, although I've known some real pioneers who have lived
without those for a while.

No, that's not the way I would choose to move.  And no, it's not the way
the majority of people probably move.  But it can be done.  Remember
when Ratso and Whatshisname moved to Miami in "Midnight Cowboy"?  It
required the cost of a bus ticket, but that was pretty much it, iirc.  I
would like to see that movie again.  I saw it when it was relatively new
but haven't noticed its being on tv in years since then.  Surely it has
been.

Maybe this is because everyone you know sees their friends on campus 5 days/wk.

Hmm.  I know what the color heather means -- like the roadsides in
Scotland.  So I guess that color could be added to any color.  But
somehow I don't think that's it.  I think what whoever said earlier
about texture might be it.

Is this a coming-out, or did I miss earlier discussion?  I am suddenly
reminded of BrP's coming-out on the list -- it was both hilarious and
poignant.

Since Natalie obviously has all the answers for Karen's

If I knew it I had forgotten, until I read it in their
printed program at the concert.   If that doesn't mean
anything to someone, maybe they will recognize this
phrase from that famous commercial:

C. W. McCall and "The Old Home Fill-er up and keep
on truckin' cafe."

Manheim SR is based in Omaha, but somehow I had
just never gotten to one of their concerts there.  It
is a bit awesome because of the music and also the
visuals.

Well, they've never been extended 'indefinitely'. They run for six
months (which you are eligible to use over a one-year period), and
there was one federal extension of 3 months. California had a state
extension that some people were eligible for (if your original
benefits ran out within a particular six-week time-frame). TX wasn't
eligible for the state extension.

Well, until companies start hiring again, it's a tough call. I do
expect there to be another extension in January, but I also hope that
I won't need it.

My dep't met today to make a tenure decision on one person and to make
retention decisions on our 10 non-tenured assistant profs. We voted tenure

unanimous! That is an extraordinary occurrence.

I can understand the part about its perhaps being new.  What I can't
understand is running up debts, except mortgages -- and car payments for
the first and possibly second car.  But we've discussed that before.  I
won't repeat my tirades about what I consider the total insanity of
charging more on a credit card than you can pay when the bill comes in
-- iow, of paying interest to credit-card companies.  I don't get it,
have never gotten it, and am convinced will never get it.  Maybe that's
related to my other feelings re financial security -- not being willing
to take risks, etc.  Different strokes and all that.  You and Tushar
think the <dining experience> is important.  I don't.  But I think the
don't-go-into-debt thing is important.

Speaking of the dining experience, the dinger is about to ding telling
me that my Smart Ones four-cheese pizza is ready.

I'd never heard of such a thing (not demanding it) till I moved here.
I had to pay first month's rent and a small dposit.

It's not as if I attempt to <limit> my friendships in any way.  How does
one meet people outside one's workplace?  I do know my next-door
neighbors, who are not in my workplace, but we don't go back and forth
to each other's houses.  They're very busy with their lives.

Why?  People do almost everything as couples here.  Maybe this is an odd
place in that respect.  I remember somebody's telling me when I first
moved here that Starkville was an ark -- that everything was two-by-two
-- that it was not a good place for a single person.  I dunno.  I'm
pretty happy here, but then I've never been what I'd call unhappy
anywhere I've ever lived.  It's true, though, that most things are
couple things.  I know very few single people, unless you count some gay
couples as single since they aren't legally married.

If I invite guests to dinner, it's a social thing.  We sit around the
table and talk while eating.  How can that apply to eating alone?
Should I sit at the dining room table and talk to myself?  Would that be
giving myself <courtesy>?  It strikes me as pretty insane.

I can't see a connection.  But I can't think further upon this at the
moment because it's almost time to watch BP and look for the Starkville
person on it.

Why does that matter?  I just don't <get it> -- obviously.

Yup.  I figured that out.  They have a house to rent, evidently.  I'll bet
that's the house they have now moved to for the winter.  He said this
morning that it is a 40 minute commute.

As someone else said, in cases like that, they mostly share motel/hotel
rooms or shabby apartments with extended families or friends. If you
don't have money, Natalie, it is hard to move, even if you have only the
clothes on your back. How do you buy gas, if you are lucky enough to
have a car?

As for Ken, all of his stuff is here. It may be here forever. He can't
afford to move it. It is to be hoped that he and Suma get work so that
they can send for it, but who knows?

I decided to share the game with the book community. I am being cursed.
Here is a typical letter:




Alyce,
I don't knew whether the thank or curse you for getting me started on
this. I started "just for fun,"
expecting to have my library set afire soon or run out of words I can
make. I'm up over 96,000 point
now & no end in sight! I'll have to shut off my computer soon to go out
& I'll lose everything. Drat!
Maybe I'll just leave the darn machine running.

It is particularly those who don't have money or excellent credit
references who are required to put up first and last months' rent. You
never have been in the position of having no money and looking for a
place to stay. Even in your "poor" days, you hadn't that problem, I'll
bet.

Who are these people you've seen moving and sleeping in cars, etc.? Are

Oh, I know that people do it. But Natalie said she'd _seen_ them, and I
was wondering about that. Like, surely not in Starkville?

Could be.  And this does fit with what you said about big cities vs
small towns.

I hated BP tonight, btw.  It was back to its unfunny mode, and I am
outraged that Steven Harper was hauled off by the police.  I assume that
the Starkville person must have been the racist boy whose racist father
is now in a coma.  He was pretty good -- the Starkville actor -- but I
still didn't like the show tonight.

>Evelyn Duncan

I have a friend right here in Maine who spent time living in her car.  She
also spent time living in an unheated trailer in the woods without
electricity.  She had to go back to Boston for something and asked only
that her friends would look after her cat for two days.  Instead they
allowed the cat to escape the trailer and then moved the trailer some small
distance.  Kathy was really distraught about the cat.  Several nights
later, after she returned to the trailer, she sat out in the rain, in the
pitch black dark, crying and trying to smoke a cigarette when the cat
returned to her.  The cat was wet and thin and had broken claws.  Other
than that, it was fine. It's a very nice cat.  I've met him.

So no -- they're not exactly out that amount of money.

Yep.  That's why the retirement offer was made here.  If enough people
hadn't accepted it, there would've been laid-off people.

I have answers for Karen's life??  I think not.  I have never suggested
that I have answers for Karen's life.  She and I are very different in
our views of things.  I have never felt a particular <bond> to my house,
for example.  I respect that as something she feels.  But it's not
something I can identify with.  I would've sold that house a year ago.
So no -- I have no answers for Karen's life.

No, we missed her by five minutes we were told and I didn't want to call
her back.  We also didn't want to go back after 9 p.m. when she would
arrive again.

I found an e-mail waiting for me at home from her that gave important
information but. . . .. next time.

Guernville is quite different in the off season.

What are retention decisions?  I'm guessing that that means that your
dept votes on keeping pre-tenure people on a year-by-year basis, right?
In some ways that makes good sense.  We have third-year reviews, as in
departmental votes/recommendations to help people know their strengths
and weaknesses leading up to the tenure votes.  But we don't do a
departmental weeding out before that.  I guess in the case of an obvious
no-stay person, we might recommend to the dept head that that person be
fired forthwith, but that's never happened.

One really, really great thing about being retired is that I don't have
to be involved in T&P decisions.  I detested them.  And I do not like
right now seeing the two people who were said no to last year re tenure
in their job searches and despondency.  Stuff like that is the pits --
the pits for them, quite obviously, but also the pits for those of us
who had to put them out to pasture.

Of course they are. They had it "in the bank" until they spent it on gas
or whatever. Now it's gone.

I'm still not sure what this means.  Was your interview with an agency
that is going to sell you to a client?  Or are you the client?  Or waht?

Why Alabama?  If Karen loves Texas, I think she should try to stay in
Texas.  Otoh, if she has applied at all the Wmarts in Texas and found no
work, then sure -- I think she should try other states.  I have no
knowledge of what the employment situation is in Alabama.  I do know
that I saw signs on two different establishments here today saying "HELP
NEEDED!"  But the unemployment rate in this county is extremely low
compared to the national average or even to the state average.  I don't
remember the figures, but I saw them in the Starkville Daily News a
month or so ago and was surprised at how much lower than the national
average our average was.

Whoever promised that life is always fun?  It's comments like that that
make me have those <Republican-type thoughts>.  Many, probably most,
people work because they need to make a living, not because they find it
fun.

Right. Except that nobody gets fired anymore. They get the rest of the
current academic year plus another full year to find a new position or go
to work for Walmart or whatever.

In view of the permanency of tenure, I think it makes excellent

Oh.  And why obesity is rampant in at least this country?  I find it
pretty much impossible to understand why liking eating too much is in
any way a good thing.  And I find it difficult to understand the
significance of "dining" behavior, except for being taught <proper>
dining habits during childhood so as not to gross out fellow diners
later in life or get voted out on Survivor because of your eating
habits.

That makes sense. Sometimes I talk with a lawyer who wants to retain me on
a case. But he has to sell the client first, since the client is (in most
cases) going to pay my bill.

I asked at lunch today whether anybody had ever watched a tv show called
"Monk," and one person said yes and that he liked it -- that it was
something about solving mysteries with audience participation.  I asked
when it was on, and he said Friday nights at 8 or 9.  Is it something on
network tv?  Like why would it be on here on Friday nights but there on
Monday nights?  Maybe he was just wrong.

I don't know about Tushar, but I think that not having debt is
important. I didn't have any debt before I lost my job--except my
house.

No.

It's a good thing you declined my offer because I didn't tape
it. Ligniere came over and we had a lovely dinner with way too much
wine and now I'm getting ready to go out with him again.

Moving back through the circle -- so how do the Mexican laborers do it?
Iow, what I'm sensing here is that when I say it's easy to move, you are
assuming it's easy to move in a middle-classed way with various
amenities.  I have never said that.  It's easy for middle-classed people
to move in middle-classed ways -- like Bonnie and Clyde didn't like Oak
Ridge, so they moved to Bar Harbor.  People without their means move in
other kinds of ways -- they mostly share motel/hotel rooms or shabby
apartments with extended families and friends, etc.

Real, live people.  I've known many in my life.  One I know currently is
now a Lecturer in my department, but I can't get him to give his life
story here because he is not into computers.  He is forced to use one to
submit his grades, but I think actually he cheats on that and cons the
secretaries into doing it for him.  He's in his early sixties, I guess,
lived here a long time ago, moved back here a few years ago after living
in a horse stable in NC for a number of years -- lived there rent free
in exchange for tending to the horses.

I wouldn't call it enjoyment per se. The most I can do is make
a very qualified statement. Making a to-do about eating is, due
to my upbringing and more recent history, one thing I look to
to bring some structure to the day. It does not feel OK in the
evening unless I have washed, changed into appropriate clothes,
relaxed etc before I set things up and sit down to eat. True,
at work I eat at the desk and generally list email is on at that
time. But I prefer to be "in the mood" and not to talk to anyone.
(Exception: if Dan, my office mate, decides he wants lunch--he
is a bit erratic on that--then we both sit down on the floor
to eat, and talk, but that is another pattern ...)

Anyway, will I develop gastrointestinal disorders if I eat
standing up at the sink? Almost certainly not. But I have a
strong feeling that it's "disorderly". Chalk it up to a culture
which has obsessive purity rules about eating, but really you
have to make something "sacred".

Did I say I'd seen people living in cars in Starkville?  I don't
remember saying that.  I feel sure that there have been people living in
their cars in Starkville, but I can't remember seeing them.  I've had
acquaintances who lived in their offices on campus, however.  Anyway,
when did I say that I'd _seen_ people living in their cars in
Starkville??

I love it!  I would even love that cat for returning, even though I'm
not a cat person.

Btw, a colleague was telling me something a couple of weeks ago that he
had read somewhere that is likely totally untrue, but I liked it.  It
was that of all the domesticated animals in the world, the dog was the
only one who, based on some kind of archaeological evidence, chose us,
as opposed to our choosing them.  Iow, human beings lured in cows,
horses, etc. because they could be useful, but dogs (or their ancestors)
seemed to have moved into human groups on their own -- they wanted to be
<with us>.  This sounds a bit bogus to me, but it nevertheless gives me
even more warm fuzzies than my zillions of regular warm fuzzies about
dogs.

Ahh.  I see.  So they should stay in a place they hate or a place they
can't find work so that they can miraculously keep paying that rent and
keep that deposit "in the bank."  As Karen would say, uh-huh.

That's written into the faculty handbook here.  I've forgotten the exact

I already know the people that people I know know.  And I do meet people

Well, you haven't lived here.  People here go out to eat or to movies

I believe Dr. Maynor may rub your head . . . with ROGAINE(tm) heh heh

Excuse me, I just finally got time at this computer.  And what do I find?
squabbles about is it easy to move or not.

I think it's easy to move if you tear up and throw away your present life.
It's moving your environment that is expensive and difficult.  Like, if
Allan and I were to move it would seem SO HARD and SO EXPENSIVE.  And if I
wanted to move, keeping what I have accumulated since my last move in
1983, it would be REALLY HARD and EXPENSIVE.  What I'm trying to say, is
it depends on your frame of mind:  burn your past and start all over?  or
try to keep everything stable except your location?

My personal irrational obsession about not eating at the kitchen
sink has little to do with considerations like this. In fact the
"courtesy" implicitly defined above strikes me as a very strange
concept--as if somebody were talking about *simulating* a thing
called courtesy with a teleprompter. Call it courtesy or call it
whatever else, it is a structural constraint, so to say, which
you have put on yourself. So that it makes everything easier and
more comfortable. What kind of fakeass exteriorized "courtesy"
is it anyway which you throw to the winds when nobody's watching?

Why?  I  know a fair amount about it the academic world, including what
goes on at various universities other than just here, and most places I
know about are pretty close to what we do here.  Contracts are for one
year only, of course, but that's also true after tenure.  But the
typical entering Assistant Professor at most places I know about can be
pretty sure that unless he/she is very much off the mark -- as in making
no progress at all -- he/she is in for five years.  The third-year
review can be a strong sign that the person should be job-hunting, but
it's not normally a firing.  It's the fifth year when the firing occurs.

Three more points, proving that this is indeed the universal view
and Dr Maynor's is a mutant view:

1 Read the very short and quick book "Confucius - The Secular as
  Sacred" by groundbreaking badass scholar Herbert Fingarette. It
  says the exact same thing, word for word.

2 Look at the old-school Bohemian people I have posted about on
  this group. They always wear a suit on Sunday, even at "come
  as you are" services. Since this is 86% Old Fart behavior by
  one reckoning, you can see how it makes clear sense.

3 Excerpt from a book posted on my virtual blog a.k.a. bookshelf:
  "Now that I've reached this age, I know that true respect arises
  not from the heart, but from discreet rules and deference" --
  from My Name Is Red (a modern classic).

These three examples practically span the entire domain of Genghis
Khan, and are thus truly international.

I am baffled. I put on ABC, I swear it. Otoh, the phone rang just then.
I had been watching CBS. Maybe the change of channel did not take place
as I thought it should have.
I am upset.

Well, we were talking about people like Karen moving to find work. I
don't see her in a shabby motel with a lot of Mexicans, really. It would
be hard for her to move.

Well, my e-life and real life are pretty well integrated. By Jan 1
2003, I will have met everyone I know well in e-life except 1.

Gee, I wonder if this means I have to start over or something...

Here is a story about Paypal:


"PayPal has restricted my account since November 4, 2002 - they said
they wanted a copy of my driver's license and credit card statement
faxed to them which I did from Staples two days later - I then emailed
them a few days later to ask if they had received the fax and when they
would be unrestricting my account - they emailed back that they wanted a
check for $11.50 which I had disputed on my credit card which caused
them to restrict my account plus a copy of my credit card statement and
driver's license which I sent by snail mail with a check for $11.50 -
they wrote that my account would be unrestricted within 24 hours of
receiving my check - I waited a week and wrote to them if they received
my check and when they would be unrestricting my account - they wrote
back that the check had to clear first and told me to check back with
them on November 25 - I stopped at my bank  today and the check has
cleared - I just went to check if they had unrestricted my account - it
is still restricted."

What a headache. And what if you don't have a driver license?

Of course people have done it. But it is not easy and it is not cheap.

It is on ABC on Mondays and on USA(cable) on Fridays. Not necessarily
the same episode on each in a week, and they are now all reruns in any
case.

No, USA has them first, and ABC shows them after they are shown on
USA. I thought that USA was now in season 2, and ABC still has season

Your take on what it means to be Republican doesn't reflect the world as I
know it. All the Republicans I know (I'm including myself here, too) are
very generous in their contributions to good causes.

The host at my local Cajun place has a degree from Duke. I'm sure when he
"interviewed" he didn't flaunt his degree...he looks like a surfer dude. I
doubt anyone asked him if about advanced degrees. As with any job, only
share what is relevant. For many jobs, keeping the knowledge of advanced
degrees to yourself is appropriate.

Because too many people are eating at the sink or in front of the TV.
If they were having a real dining experience, they probably wouldn't
be over-eating.

I don't really think that liking eating too much is a good thing; I
interpreted Tushar's statement as an exaggeration, that he really
meant that he cares about the food he eats. That, I think, is a
good thing.

I was sending e-mail earlier this evening when I heard a thump at my
window. I thought the animals next door were running loose again, but
it was Ligniere! He'd brought me rosemary bread, so we had an
impromptu meal together. A salad with the last of the tomatoes from my
garden and marinated fresh mozzarella over greens plucked with the
light of a miner's lamp from my garden: butter lettuce, oregano,
arugula, sorrel, and lemon balm. Drunk with a nice Shiraz. This was a
perfect meal, in my book. (Lemon balm rules.)

The fact that I care about food means that I have this stuff
available, ready to prepare at a moment's notice.

What can I say, "Pleasure is a necessity." Dining is an aesthetic
experience for some people. Many people.

What?  Where are you seeing a snide tone in what I wrote?  My attitude
was quite the contrary.  It was fun seeing the funny Alec of yore in
that bunch of mail -- the funny Alec as opposed to the grumpy Alec.

Correct.  All I've said (both in this current discussion and in the
past) is that it's easy to move within the country.  When you start
loading up extensions, you are moving away from the basic point.  Of
course one can create moves that are quite complicated and expensive.

I missed that part.  I was talking about people in general.  I wasn't
assigning skills or social class to them.  Perhaps it would be
<debasing> for people to lower themselves into a more modest way of
moving.

Yes.  I think it's funny that that brand chose to call itself "duck
tape" -- with a picture of a duck on the label, iirc.  It somehow kind
of reminds me of the "O Glue" brand of envelope-sealing glue in Japan.
Language play, etc.

He was saying something about how you were given all the clues and could
try to solve the mystery along with the detective.  Something like that.

Ah so.  That explains it.  If they're all reruns, I assume this is an
old show moving into extinction.  Correct?

I don't get this at all.  If a real dining experience means <better>

Of course.  That's sort of a circle -- because you care about food, you
keep that kind of stuff available -- or the fact that you keep that
stuff available is an indication that you care about food.  But you've
already said you care about food, so I'm not sure what point you're
making here.

        They all pile into pickup trucks, don't have a chance to
bathe, eat poorly and suffer malnutrition, receive very
little medical care, uproot their children constantly so
that they do not have access to a decent or consistent
education, thereby guaranteeing the next generation of
migrant farm workers.

        Yes, they're a model.

        Yes, it sucked.  I got away with it because I could take
showers on campus and I was young and in good health.  Well,
I did end up with walking pneumonia.

        Wait. Weren't half the characters in The Grapes of Wrath dead

It's not just migrant laborers that live transient lives.
Adjunct Faculty, particularly in the Humanities, live rather
transient lives. They have no long-term employment,often no
bennies, work 2-3 different locations (campuses), drive hundreds
of miles between gigs, become twisted and embittered before
their time ...

I'm not advocating that Karen do this - just pointing out other
examples. You guys ruled out retail and waitressing - I am trying
to understand what's reasonable, what the options are in the
absence of secure, long-term employment. Most of us can't count
on that anymore.

Picture Books Get a Museum of Their Own

November 26, 2002
By PAM BELLUCK




The Eric Carle Museum of Picture Book Art in Amherst, Mass.,
hopes to create a full-fledged art genre from what has
previously been exhibited only in small collections.

We moved everything we had and it was merely expensive.  Not "really
hard".  The movers charged around $4000 to pack everything up, shove it in
a truck, motor it up here, and bring it into the house.  And of course the
expenses of buying a new house and selling a former one.  Then there were
the three nights on the road with two rowing shells, two cars, and three
cats.  Then there was the sleeping on the floor for ten days until they
motored our stuff up here.  The expense and inconveniences were well worth
it.  But if I had it to do over, I think I would sell most of our stuff and
only keep a U-Haul van worth of things. That we could have packed ourselves
and driven up here, having also sold one of the cars and both boats.  I
would have only kept Christmas stuff, pictures, some books, and a few
clothes.  Clyde probably would have kept lots of his kitchen things.

Au contraire. It is just coming into its own. ABC has contracted for 13
new episodes.

Audience participation is present in all detective shows that are any
good. Monk is not different in this respect.
Of course there are shows/movies where they don't give the audience all
of the clues, but I call those frauds and deceitful.

No.  Was it good?  I watched the promos for it so often that I feel like I
saw the thing.  They were on during the afternoon CBS soap operas.

Sure, but Natalie did not specify that anyone had to survive the moving

So I thought.  You don't seem to have any sympathy for what it might be
like to be reduced in life to living out of a car, to be at the mercy of
sick landlords who don't give a shit about you, to not even be able to
properly care for the only living thing, your cat, that still cares about
you.  One of the decent points that is made in the seriously flawed book
_Nickle and Dimed_ is that living in poverty is not simply a reduced way of
life.  It is living in crisis.  Getting people off of welfare rolls and
back to work has not gotten people out of poverty.  Your perspective from
your cushy life with a new car every two years, ownership of two houses,
and a secure retirement income is about as bad as you portray the attitudes
of your rich republican brother.

    I think there was the two-hour pilot and four additional episodes;

Me either, although I loved him in "The King of Comedy" (along with DeNiro).

Hmmm. Interesting. I was in a waiting room yesterday and picked up an issue
of TV Guide (an odd thing to have in a waiting room, methinks), and there
was a feature on the Martin/Lewis duo. Apparently Jerry Lewis is writing a
book about their career.

I don't think that Tushar meant that he likes eating too much food, but
rather that he is too fond of eating -- it's important to him, and should be
dealt with with a certain respect, which eating standing of the sink does
not demonstrate.

Not that he's anything so special.

Yes, texture. Heather t-shirts have that sort of speckled look.

oh, c'mon, it's a (single) girl thing. You eat in the kitchen
standing up, or on the couch in front of the teevee. Especially
after a long day at work (and frequently, the gym). I end up
eating dinner with friends about once a week. On weekends
when I don't go out I usually graze and don't bother with
proper meals. When I do, I eat at the table etc.

Yep. And if it's a dining experience rather than eaten over a sink,
you savor it.

Sometimes I eat my spinach wrap hanging my head off the deck so that the
shredded carrots that fall out can go on the ground.

You do realize that there are at least two levels above that?   Not that
I've ever even made it to Archivist.  But then I don't have an addictive
personality.  Each game takes too long.  I'm easily bored.

Last night, I was going to post the web site of the live cam in front of
Bar Harbor's best bar, open in the winter.  At 4:00 yesterday afternoon the
street was completely void of parked cars.  They site stores the 16
previous cam shots.  http://www.geddys.com/harborcam.html  At 8:30 this
morning there were no parked cars.  At 9:00 there was an oil truck.  They
do seem to be doing a lunch business right now.   One can also tell that
all the lobster boats are out today.  I counted 14 lobster boats and three
draggers at their moorings on Sunday morning -- not on camera but as I
walked past the harbor on my way to get the Sunday newspapers.

I didn't know how many levels there are.
Thanks for telling me.  Next time I
absolutely will not let a red square get
to the bottom.  I know I can go all the
way next time.  Right?  Oh, I forgot.
You are not addicted.

That's a kind of "basic point" which is so devoid of meaning
that it's useless. You might as well state other truisms, like
it's easy to move to a poor and dangerous neighborhood, or easy
to move down a "class".

This whole merry-go-round could have been avoided if somebody had
just listened to what I said before. Natalie does not like food.
There is a fundamental problem with understanding the "other" point
of view. Hence she makes absurd links between liking eating and
overeating, or between sitting at a table and getting obese. I
add that this is not unusual or mutant. Everyone has seen such
people before. You should know the symptoms. You should deduce
it when you see Mutant buying a "vanilla" ice cream every single
time or putting three drops of olive oil on spaghetti or putting
a cheese pizza (whatever that means) in the oven. If eating is
just an unpleasant duty for someone, fish is too fishy, beef is
too "ewww", garlic is too smelly, greens are too spicy, marinara
sauce is too messy, fried chicken is too oily, gyro is too gross,
chocolate is too rich, mangoes are too fibery, etc etc, then
nothing in the world is going to change their logic. They probably
think alcoholics drink because they like the taste of beer.

I just came across a book: "Nickel and Dimed" by Barbara Ehrenreich.
Sounded like an interesting book. Anybody read it?

Read my report. These things are the same to Dr Maynor.

Anyway, I do eat too much. America did it to me.

I am not hurt. Just a little disappointed.

To be absolutely honest, everything about this "Ligniere"

Of the last 600 people I have met, Marie is perhaps the most
*special*. Marie's acute specialness knows no bounds, and it
certainly puts her above my mother, my bestest friend Osvaldo,
Carly Fiorina, and the Pope. When I said there was nothing
special about Marie it was with all the above caveats. I
didn't realize they were not widely known, and I apologize
for not stating them earlier. Googlism has the the following
true statements to make about "Marie":

  Marie is here
  Marie is gorgeous and a sweetheart
  Marie is alive
  Marie is a sprightly tortie who loves to ambush others from
    the staircase landing
  Marie is the reason i watch
  Marie is able to provide accurate information to each client
  Marie is in the last row on the right
  Marie is the kind of leader who asks the right questions
  Marie is truly "above the crowd"
  Marie is remarkable
  Marie is the eternal student
  Marie is a gem
  Marie is not one to hold back the emotive lava
  Marie is going as a bumblebee
  Marie is fond of painting
  Marie is a fantastic writer and is passionate about her work
  Marie is a clever combination of lightness and solidness
  Marie is actually a very sweet
  Marie is a very professional and personable person to deal with
  Marie is not so sure

Thus far, Ligniere reminds me of the dashing older man in BAREFOOT IN THE
PARK. The man who lives upstairs in the attic (accessible only by climbing
through Jane Fonda's and Robert Redford's sunroof....the guy who get's
Jane's mother toasted. He sounds like a lot of fun. Good for you.

I watched it. I think Chris Noth would have made a better Dean Martin. I
enjoyed Sean Whateverhisnameis as Jerry Lewis but I found the whole show
very *acty*  It was all too staged. I loved all the costumes and props from
that time but it was stagey. I'd love to have heard Martin's version of how
it went down.

I'm hoping to shock all of Starkville by eating out solo. Don't know about a
swap for the moment....want to wrap up this real estate license and secure a
job in some area of commercial real estate prop mgmt. Then...it's time to go
house shopping!

Sure, let's do Cajun Pacific again. They've just come out with a new
menu....a few new tasty dishes.

first one is on Friday night and that the other three are repeats of
that one.

Btw, there's free HBO/Cinemax this weekend on DirecTV.  I don't know
whether that means that it will also be free on cables -- like whether
maybe HBO and Cinemax do some kind of total promotion or whatever.

Well, it might not go well in novels, but one of the examples I used
yesterday(?) was The Great Migration, which seemed to work pretty well.
I don't think I've heard or read any horror stories of death on the
highways, though it's likely that some people didn't make it.  That
might be true of anybody anywhere.

Why do you think I have no sympathy for the poor?  I have great sympathy
for the poor.  Of course my life is cushy.  Are you saying that only the
poor can sympathize with the poor -- that the only way to be caring is
to give up all money and possessions and become a street person?

Clyde and I walked down to town late this morning to get the newspapers and
have a latte and scone at Cafe MilagRo.   Just as we came to the spot where
Eddie Brook, which drains our neighborhood, empties into the ocean, we
heard a number of excited crows.  Then we saw the bald eagle they were
chasing.  The eagle flew from one tree to another very, very near us.  It
had a gull in its talons.  Stunning.

Traveling is really complicated now.  All the arranging and stuff re my
mother when I went to Finland made me really wish I didn't have to go.
I am most definitely going to Acadiafest, but I don't know that I'm
going to do much other travel any time soon.  It's just too much
trouble.

Absolutely right! Probably won't buy one with the proceeds from this

The big question here is how many and which coaches will be fired.  I
think our head coach, he of bull-castrating fame, will probably be kept
for another year.  I feel sure that our offensive coach -- hmm -- surely
that's not how you say it -- the coach of the offense, I mean -- what's
that called?  Anyway, most people think he's for sure dead meat.  Also
perhaps the defensive coach.  He's the one who was lauded as SuperMan a
couple of seasons ago, but it seems that he's crashed badly.  The Egg
Bowl this year is going to be a very sad sight.  Ole Miss is pretty bad,
but we are far worse.  Who in the world is going to want to watch a game
between Sucky and Suckier?

Meanwhile, there's still no ruling on whether our basketball star can
play.  The NCAA has decided that they don't like the names of the
courses he took in 9th and 10th grades.  Never mind that they
investigated it all before his freshman year and cleared him as
eligible.  Now in his junior year they've decided maybe they made a
mistake.  What a ridiculous situation.  He could've gone pro last spring
but decided to come back for another year.  Big mistake it appears.
Without him we're slipping.  I haven't looked at the polls this week but
think I heard that we had fallen from #12 to something like #23.  But
the Lady Dawgs are moving up, or so I heard -- from just barely in the
top 25 to somewhere under 20 now.

And this reminds me of Spencer.  He's getting a bit pudgy.  Not really
fat but slightly over ideal weight.  I've cut down on his canned food to
just a very small dab.  And I recently bought "Fit & Trim" for his dry
food.  When the old dry food ran out, and I opened the Fit & Trim, I was
wondering whether he would turn up his nose at it.  Quite the contrary!
He's eating it by the tons.  I don't know whether it's just the change
that has intrigued him or whether its lower fat content or whatever it
is makes him feel the need for more.  If it's the former, he will
presumably slow down on it soon, and things will be fine.  If it's the
latter, then the purpose is being defeated, and I'll have to start
restricting the amount.

Not if that's assumed to be part of your pay, as in the salary is
lowered in the expectation that you'll make lots of tips, and you turn
out to serve stingy people.

I'm not sure that I understand.  Are you saying that as a budget-saving
measure the employees are expected to take a week off without pay but
that then the boss changed that?  Re Christmas, do they not have xmas
day off totally -- as in not applying for taking it without pay or using
vacation time?  I thought most places of work closed on xmas day and
that many did also on Thanksgiving day.  (I realize there are tons of
exceptions, from restaurants to hospitals to police/fire/etcpeople.  But
I thought that ordinary businesses were usually closed on those two
days.)

I doubt it.  I think I mentioned once before that I wonder how it works
when an old person in need of a nursing home has too much income to
qualify for Medicaid but not enough to pay for a nursing home.  Surely
there must be some kind of partial-payment method -- as in Medicaid
doesn't pay the whole bill but kicks in for some of it.  I will probably
find out pretty soon.  My mother's social-security income is higher than
the Medicaid allowable income, so she supposedly doesn't qualify.  But
the cost of the nursing home is far higher than her ss income.  Once she
runs totally out of other sources of income, I'm not sure what will
happen.

We had snow in the forecast for Tgiving a few days ago, but it has been
revised now.  Just cold rain for the rest of today and tomorrow, then

Will somebody post again that url?  I didn't look at it before and
probably shouldn't now (well, I'm not going to right now, but I mean
probably never should), but all this talk is intriguing me.

It is arguably the most complete way to be caring.

I didn't think that's what he meant.  I took it to mean being too fond
of eating.  But my point is the same.  Karen said she thought that was
"a good thing."  I asked why.  I don't see anything particularly good
about it, although I also don't see anything bad about it.  What I'm
curious about is Karen's judgments, suggesting that it is somehow
<virtuous> to be into eating.

Should for him, and I'm not questioning that.  I'm questioning the idea
(which Karen expressed -- I don't think Tushar did) that what she and
Tushar happen to like is automatically "a good thing" -- that everybody
should like it.

You who?  I would consider it a waste of time to move the food to a
plate and a table.  I would also have to open up the dining room --
opening the heating vent (cooling vent in summer), etc.  What a hassle,
especially since I doubt very much that I would <savor> it any more than
I do when standing in the kitchen -- or sitting on the kitchen stool,
which I often do.  (I do often put food on plates, btw.  But I don't set
the plate on a table.  It's on the kitchen counter.)

I've never thought of it as gendered.  Isn't there some kind of
organization of in-front-of-sink eaters?  I bet the membership includes
at least as many males as females.

Sitting on the couch in front of the teevee to eat sounds inconvenient
to me.  Somehow messy or something.  I do sometimes eat popcorn when
watching tv, but that's the only food that <goes with> tv to me.

High-tech companies used to have a paid shutdown between Christmas and

Do rabbits come and get them, or do they biodegrade into the earth?  All

I'm worried about the lobsters in Wmart.  They always seem lethargic.
When I mentioned it at lunch a couple of days ago, somebody suggested
that it might be simply that they were sleeping out of boredom -- that
there weren't many places to go in that tank.  Wouldn't you hate to be a
lobster?  The worst would probably be to be a bored Wmart lobster.  They
have to get shipped there in no doubt unpleasant ways, and then they
have to sit in that little tank.

This is depressing.

I'm glad you agree that it is indeed a truism.

I am proud to be associated with my friend Andrius, who has given this
concept a great deal of thought: "An Economy for Giving Everything Away,"
by Andrius Kulikauskas and David Ellison-Bey.
<http://www.ms.lt/en/workingopenly/givingaway.html>

This paper was accepted by the 2nd International Conference on Open
Collaborative Design for Sustainable Innovation in Bangalore, and Andrius
has been sponsored to go there to present it.

That brief discussion about overeating was a minor side-point and was,
iirc, a question more than a statement -- like wouldn't you want to eat
more rather than less if you found the food good (in response to
somebody saying something about eating less if the food was good).
What's interesting to me, though, is that you have hit the nail on the
head -- but the wrong nail.  I have no problem at all understanding that
some people love food.  I've known many such people in my life.  I have
no problem understanding that you like the dining ritual, that Karen
likes to have the makings of gourmet feasts onhand so that she can fix
them when the spirit moves or somebody knocks on her window, etc. etc.
I have never suggested that these behaviors are <bad> or <wrong>.  The
problem with not understanding the other pov is not mine.  It's
Karen's.  She's the one who has said repeatedly that there is something
<wrong> with people who don't share her food interest -- that liking to
eat is <a good thing>, that not caring about it is a <sign of low self
esteem>, etc. etc.

Huh?  Are you suggesting that I'm a complainer about food??  That's far,
far from the truth.  Except for large fish heads with eyes (or certain
<dangerous> foods), I will eat anything.  I've never said any of the
above things except that it is true that the greens in the regular
cafeteria line are way too salty for my taste -- I get mine in the other
line.  If those salty ones were offered to me by a host or were the only
ones available, I would eat them and say nothing, of course.

I don't consider them the same thing but do consider the difference of
no importance in the context -- the context being why Karen thinks it's
"a good thing."

Huh?  Why would Starkville be shocked?  Is this a reference to my
answering Karen's question about where I meet friends?  I don't meet
them in restaurants because all of my friends are married and they eat
out with their spouses.  That is not to suggest that anything is wrong
with eating out alone.  I could do it if I wanted to.

        You just happen to do quite a bit of your socializing when

        You spend down all your assets, then Medicaid kicks in the
rest.  So if your monthly bill is $6000, and you get $2000
in pension, Medicaid would pay the remaining $4000 plus
whatever the amount is now for allowable monthly expenses...
used to be about $100.

Yes.  We have it here. And today it melted some . .

        My athletes drive me crazy.  They think they can go to
college to play ball with a GPA in the dumps.  Even if they
go, they won't be able to do the work.  They set themselves
up for failure and because they're all BMOC in high school
they think I'm lying.  ARGH!  I say your star basketball
player never should have gone to college in the first place
if he couldn't pass normal high school English.

        My star football player was suspended for a malicious fight
he started, but his suspension miraculously ends on
Thanksgiving day.  I'm furious.  They're just enabling this
behavior by saying you can skip school, but we won't make it
so you'll miss the damn football game.

Buy them and ship them back to Maine.  That would be the most depressing

Psst -- so was my response as you might have noted by the repetitive use of
"seriously flawed" for the last two days.  I never did mention the author,
though.  Tushar must have looked that up on his own.

I find it amusing that Natalie keeps better track of her dog's weight than
her own.  When Alec, or someone, reported that Natalie looked less trim
than usual on the SnowBash pictures, she claimed that she hadn't noticed
and never weighs herself.

I am not at all an <assertive> homeowner, in that I do not tell guests
what they can and cannot do in my house or bring into my house, but I
would draw the line with guns.  A gun is not welcome in my house, with
the possible exception that if I called the police and they arrived with
guns in holsters, I would probably let them in.

But speaking of Karen, wasn't she talking about buying a gun a year or
so ago?  I thought I remembered some kidding of her as having turned
into a Real Texan.  Maybe I'm misremembering.  It's very hazy in my
memory.

What sort of Disneyesque, Mary-Tyler-Moore-esqe nonsense is this?

Lobsters are cold-blooded animals; their metabolism, hence their level of
activity, is defined by the temperature to which they are exposed.  The
lobster tanks are kept at a low temperature in order to (1) avoid having to
feed the beasts; (2) avoid incurring weight losses which would diminish
profits; and (3) avoid diseases.  Lobsters by nature have very nasty
dispositions---perhaps not quite as bad as wolverines and badgers, but
close.  By the very nature of their central nervous systems, they do not
have the cerebral capacity to be bored.

Remember, as you observe the lobsters, they have an excellent opportunity
to observe you.  Maybe that's what depresses them.

Well, I guess that's just how it is.  I am without sympathy or
compassion.  I do realize that I can't live up to all those hours you
spend helping the poor.  My minor work for HforH pales in comparison.

No, I don't consider those synonymous terms.  I'm not sure about
<literary characters>.  That term isn't one that I'm sure I've heard and
is one that I'm pretty sure I've never used.  But re the other two
terms, I would say that <literary figures> is a larger label -- that it
can include fictional characters but isn't limited to them.

Why would it make one a more <complete> carer?  And would becoming more
caring make it a worthwhile thing to do?  Like which is better:  being a
cushy carer who is in a position to give to charitable causes, or being
a street person who has nothing to give but who can <feel> more?

No.  The difference I see between people and animals is that people are
in a better position to understand what's happening.  And I think that
matters.  A person who is stomped upon can think, "This is wrong.  Why
am I being stomped upon?  The stomper is evil!"  A dog who is stomped
upon doesn't have the ability, imho, to determine that it is a wrong
being inflicted by an evil stomper.

But re your "instead of" -- that doesn't really work.  I spend both time
and money in taking care of people also.

I must've missed that.  I remember Marie's saying that she was a grazer

It was I, in response to your statement that you've seen a lot of people

person or in the movies.

It's not worth a trip to the archives, but you have apparently forgotten
that you said that liking to eat too much and having a dining ritual
were "both good things" and that eating when standing at the sink was a
sign of "low self esteem."  You did indeed say those things.  But, as I
said, proving it is not important enough to me to go to the archives.

Right.  I feel no particular need to go out to restaurants to socialize,
which is a good thing since, as I said before, the people I know who go
out to eat do it with spouses.

But you are not to give him more. That is the whole point. He should get
the same volume as with his old food. Giving him double rations of the
Fit and Trim defeats the purpose.

PS:  Speaking of socializing and eating, tomorrow is going to be a white
tablecloth day in the cafeteria.  They do this special thing the
Wednesday before Tgiving and then on a day in mid December.  You pay a
flat rate at the cafeteria door and get whatever you want from a vast
array of goodies in celebration of the holiday.  And you sit at tables
with tablecloths -- but only if your group has made a reservation, which
my group has.

If she didn't value NOT being a grazer, she would be one when *uc* was

Perhaps your rrb&sil can contribute. It is possible that she could be
moved to a different facility. I think the rules vary from state to
state. Here there is a county home where the indigent aged go. It is not
where I'd want to be.

Thanks.  That monthly expense figure strikes me as way low since my
mother pays far more than that on just medicines and AARP insurance.
But the other expenses strike me as high.  But you said pension, so I
guess that means any kind of pension.  My mother's only income is social
security, which, afaik, doesn't ever go as high as $2000 a month.

So would regular Purina Dog Chow, which is what he was eating before, be
better than Purina Fit&Trim?  I'm not sure what you mean by a raw diet.

BTDT.  Hikes in the Canadian Rockies turned into a hike through the very
large, but bear-free, West Edmonton Mall, after Johanne heard some
discussion about the bears in the woods.

It didn't help that previously we had sat next to Cynthia Dusel-Bacon
<http://www.pamf.org/about/annual/profiles/ar97_duselbacon.html> at a
social function and got to talk about her prosthetic arms.

Cynthia's a geologist who got both arms chewed off by a bear in
Alaska.  Worst part was listening to her describe how she bargained to stay
alive by not struggling while the bear munched on her lymph nodes. :-\

None of this conversation is at all important. I'm not denying I said

If you sit at the counter and eat your food from a plate, we all will
feel much better than envisioning you standing while eating with your
fingers and dripping gravy into the sink, which is the picture you've
planted in my mind.

No, once I'm done with it, I have no problem with my body being recycled.

        A cafeteria isn't a type of restaurant?

        At least it has some reconstituted protein in it.  But
they're both shitty food.  Probably the equivalent of your
frozen pizzas, but more chemicals and sugar.

        Raw diet is raw food.  Raw meat, innards, veggies.

I am an Andrius 1. Andrius proved his belief in the theory by giving me

Really? You repeatedly have said that it isn't done, that people only

On Tue, 26 Nov 2002, Natalie Maynor quoted me:

then wrote:
>Why would it make one a more <complete> carer?  And would
becoming more >caring make it a worthwhile thing to do?  Like which is
better: being a >cushy carer who is in a position to give to charitable
causes, or being >a street person who has nothing to give but who can
<feel> more?

I love the way Natalie revises comments as she responds! No one has said
that giving up all would "make one a more <complete> carer." I suggested
that giving up all is arguably "the most complete way to be caring." Nouns
and verbs. Apples and oranges.  And to the best of my knowledge no one
here has yet said that giving up all is necessarily better. Natalie's
ethics may not put caring very high up on a list of priorities. And
absolutely no one has talked about "feeling" - exept Natalie.

Read the paper Pete mentioned, Natalie. Or the NT.

        Monthly expenses is the allowance for clothes, hair cuts,
personal items, etc.  Medicaid requires that you keep
supplementary insurance policies, and that comes out of the
retirement income.  Medicine is part of the amount billed to
Medicaid.

        Just plan on the nursing home taking everything.

        I explain til I'm blue in the face, but they don't believe
me.  I think it is because so many schools sneak so many
athletes who are semi-literate through ... it's a sucky
system because most of them *won't* turn into millionaire
players and then they're uneducated and jobless and have
wasted all that opportunity.

I don't find that odd at all.  I think it's human nature to care more
about one's <family members> than about oneself.  Parents certainly pay
more attention to their children's health than their own, and I would
think that most spouses do also.  Spencer is my family.

Why were you looking at them?  My vague memory is that we got into a

Natalie, does your mother still own the house in Huntsville?  That will
have to be sold.  If the nursing home that she is now in accepts Medicaid,
then she won't be moved and her care will remain the same as it is now.

ROFL!  If you can produce evidence that I've ever said I've "seen a lot
of people living in cars," I will indeed eat crow for the rest of my
life.  I can't remember having ever seen a single soul living in a car.

Spike is eating a scant handful of Senior Reducing Diet pellets that I
have to buy from the vet and 1/3 can of Pro-Pet Senior Reducing Diet
meat that I get at the feed store, twice daily. Seems to fill him up and
he has lost a little weight since he came here.

Huh?  The point about the grazing was it's what *single* people often do
-- as in people eating alone -- as in without *uc* in Marie's case.
Rashmi first mentioned grazing and said "single."  Marie agreed.  When
there is more than one person present, you can sit and talk while
eating.  The whole point of this discussion was about one's eating
habits when alone, not when with others.

I believe you.  Terrible things happen to people and pets all
the  time.  It bothers me when I feel that more attention is given to
animals at times.  I hate to see animals abused, too, of course.

Evidence, please.  When did I say that lobsters have emotions?  I said
that somebody at lunch a couple of days ago speculated that the Wmart
lobsters were bored since there wasn't much to explore in that tank.  I
thought that was funny.  The idea of a bored Wmart lobster tickles my
funny-bone somehow (although I don't mean to suggest that I think
<cruelty to lobsters> is ok).

I have never given him "rations" of dry food.  Dry food stays in his
bowl all the time.  I fill it whenever I notice that it's empty, which
with the regular Purina was usually once every two or three days.  I
have no idea what the exact "volume" of his old food was.

Ok, I understand now.  What I understand is that I'm simply too stupid
to <get it>.  Fwiw, caring is about as high as you can go in my ethical
priorities.  Caring and acting on it, that is.  I don't consider sitting
around just staring at the walls and <caring> to be all that important.
Ooops!  Sorry.  I've screwed up again.  I mentioned my "ethical
priorities" when you did not use that adjective at all -- you used the
noun "ethics"!  That indeed renders my point invalid.  So let's just
forget it.  I agree that I am just not as <good> as people like you and
Bonnie.  I make no pretense of being a <good person>.

I don't have time for url-chasing right now.  I have indeed read the
NT.  Even took a whole course on it in college.

I don't eat gravy.  And to whoever it was who suggested I was picky
about food -- Tushar, I think it was -- I will say that if gravy is put
on food offered me when I'm somebody's guest, then I do indeed eat it
and do indeed not say "eeewww -- I hate gravy!"  But I would never
choose to eat gravy.  My sink-eating is normally something like a cup of
yogurt or a handful of lettuce or an apple or a banana.

Not to me.  I'm laughing at the thought now of saying to somebody on

The veggies are ok, but it will be a major, major hurdle for me to bring
raw meat or raw innards into my house.  I guess I could do it, but I
would worry that the diet wasn't balanced.  And I can't believe that dog
food is so bad.  All the dogs in my life have eaten regular dog food and
have lived to ripe old ages. (Spencer is supposedly not going to live to
a ripe old age -- because of his heart problem.)

There follows the statement you made that you've seen people move and
sleep in their cars, in conjunction with a remark about a movie. And
that is why I asked if you had seen real people or movie people.

No, I have never said that people don't do things like that alone here.
I've said the thing about spouses in relation to going out to eat or to
movies as a *SOCIAL THING*.  Karen said that she met friends at
restaurants or movies and asked where I met friends.  I said that I saw
them on campus or at Wmart -- that people here went to movies or
restaurants with spouses.  Ahhh -- I bet I see the confusion.  In saying
that they went with spouses, I perhaps didn't make clear that that meant
*if they were going with another person*.  I did not mean to rule out
going alone.  In fact, every movie I've seen in a movie theater in the
past many, many years has been alone at a movie theater in Starkville.
That has not been many movies.  I've seen maybe one or two theater
movies since getting my first vcr.  Since the advent of vcr's and rental
places, I just wait for the tapes to come out.  But certainly before
that I went to movies -- alone.

        *Shrug*.  I just take 'em out of the package and toss them
out in the back for the dogs.

        My dogs are in outstanding health.  Vinnie even donates blood

I put more value on acting on the caring.  What is there to <get>?  If you
<get it> but don't do anything, well. it sounds selfish somehow.  It sounds
like "Oh, I know people are poor, but fuck 'em."

It's one of my favorite plays....and movies. I'm a big Neil Simon fan...not
so much his recent works but his early works are gems. Among my favorites:
Lucky Me!  I have copies of all his early plays.

No, I don't want to get into a new diversion now.  I've been hopping
back and forth between list mail and personal mail, here and on Ra, and
see that a new pile of mail has built up here that I want to get
through.  I really meant to catch up on some magazine reading tonight --
since I gave up earlier on grading any more papers -- I've never been
much of a night worker.  And I don't have to return these papers until
Tuesday, which means I have a long weekend ahead to grade them.  Anyway,
this is definitely not the time for getting into a web toy.  Maybe later
in the weekend if I get other stuff done.

A cafeteria is a restaurant. This is a fact. Any establishment purveying
prepared food to its customers for money is a restaurant.

You cannot weasel out of this one, Natalie.

It's fun going to movies alone.  You don't have to share the popcorn.

No, it was not made clear until now. I thought it was considered gauche
to go anywhere in public alone in Starkville.

Yes, that's right.  I see little wrong with selfishness.  The most
important thing, to me, is to have a clear grasp of reality.

It just occurred to me that I perhaps didn't make clear earlier that my
objection to the mess with our basketball star is not that I object in
any way to the NCAA rules about academic stuff.  I think they're good.
(What I think would be better -- something I've said many times before
-- is that athletes should not be expected to be students at all.  They
could be given the option of taking free classes and pursuing degrees if
they wanted to.  But it shouldn't be a requirement.  They are brought in
for a specific purpose, an important purpose for school spirit and
alumni contributions and such.  But they are hired performers and should
not be expected to be students, imho.)  Anyway, as long as athletes are
expected to be students also, then I think it's good that the NCAA tries
to police the academic situation.  What I find ridiculous in this case
is that the NCAA two years declared this person eligible and is now (at
the prompting of a rival school, I've heard) digging back into these
9th- and 10th-grade records that were declared ok earlier.

This quotation from a recent book on John Donne was sent me recently:

--
John Donne is quoted in the new book by David Edwards _John Donne: Man
of Flesh and Spirit_

"In an early sermon he said bluntly: 'The poore are He, He is the poore. And so
he that opresseth the poore, reproaches God.'  He told the lawyers of Lincoln's
Inn: 'Thou seest a needy person, and thou turnest away thine eye; but it is the
Prince of Darknesse that casts this mist upon thee; Thou stoppest thy nose at
his sores, but they are thine owne incompassionate bowels that stinke within
thee.'"  p. 176

True,  but eating at a cafeteria at lunch time during the work week is
different than going out to eat for dinner.  I miss our old cafeteria. I
would often bring my own lunch but could still eat it in the cafeteria with
others.

If you are mistaken, some philosopher will come along and point the
way.  If you are too mistaken, the men in white coats will come and haul
you off.  Contrary to modern opinion, there is only one reality.

That makes sense.  I mean why should Medicaid pay anything if the person
has means to pay?  My only question was about the Medicaid
minimum-income figure I'd seen in relation to somebody whose
social-security check is higher than that minimum but who has nothing
else at all.  Like would they fall through the cracks.

Ah.  That kind of stuff is a very tiny expense in a nursing home.

Iow, Medicaid is basically paying the premium for you?  Like if Medicaid
pays the difference between your ss income (or whatever kind of income
you have) and the cost of the nursing home, then if you first subtract
the cost of the AARP insurance from the ss income, then Medicaid would
fill in the difference?

Ahh.  So old people really don't have to go without medicine in such
situations.  That's good to know.

>         Just plan on the nursing home taking everything.

I'm not sure what this means.  I was talking about the problem of the
gap between a person's income and the cost of the nursing home.   My
mother's nursing home costs $3000 a month.  That's quite a bit more than
her income.  She's making up the difference now with her savings, but
they will run out.  What I was worried about was what would happen
then.  That nursing home charge does not include things like the cost of
her medicines, the hospital bed she rents, etc.  Here's one thing I find
really odd:  Medicare will pay for renting a hospital bed if you're in
your own home but not if you're in a nursing home.  (Note that I'm
talking Medicare now, not Medicaid.  My mother has Medicare of course
but not Medicaid.)

Do their coaches not also tell them about the academic rules?  Surely
they believe their coaches.

I never eat alone.  That shows low self esteem.  Instead, I take a person
living in a car to lunch or dinner.  Sometimes they have bad manners, but
I remind myself that low self esteem rots character and makes people
living in cars forget their manners.

Of course her house would have to be sold, which I certainly hope it
will be soon.  It's been for sale for ages.  And I do think it's about
to be sold -- for a loss -- as in for less than she put into it, but
that's ok.  I'm sick of paying the utility bills and taxes and insurance
on that house.  Especially the sky-high utility bills.  I think every
appliance has been left at full blast in that house for months.  Anyway,
the money from the house will buy her a little bit more time before she
has to move to Medicaid.

My guess is that at least 95%, probably more like 98%, of the people in
her nursing home are on Medicaid.  I'd say she's one of a tiny, tiny
handful not on it.  I could tell that from the conversations with the
office people.  They seem not used to people who are paying their own
way.  And yes re the care.  Those stories about people on Medicaid not
getting the same care as people paying their own way are myths, as I
thought I had said here before.  There is absolutely no difference in
the treatment.  I would guess that most of the employees wouldn't have
any way to even know who was or wasn't paying.  And why they would be
nicer to those who are paying, I have no idea.  It just ain't true.

I think this is an appropriate time to confess that I don't get it.  I
haven't been able to make the damned thing work.  I submit words but the

enough to get addicted to this game anyway so there.

It is very important to post at least 50 messages a day on words-l.

Then you don't care about "what is life" because you have NO LIFE.

Seems I'm in the mood to bake and more....making holiday treats to share
with those I'll be seeing over the next several days:

Chocolate-dipped Apricots
Sin (graham crackery, coconut, chocolate treats)
Oatmeal raisin cookies
Spiced Nuts
Raspberry White Chocolate Cookies (new recipe)

I treated myself to an eggnog shake at Jack in the Box while on my walk
today. As bad as that is....between that and the Jumbo Jack, I have no
appetite for this sweet stuff I'm making. All in all, probably a good thing.

Who else is beginning the holiday baking....somebody's making peanut
brittle...that much I remember.

I'm reading a book on Hellman and Hammett.......I remember the Hokey Pokey
but what was the Hokey Pokey man??? Did he sell ice cream???? Someone fill
me in.

Spencer doesn't need major reduction in size.  He's not really fat.  But
I would rather nip the increase in the bud now than have him get
fatter.  I will consult with the vet about it soon and see what
recommendations he or she has.  That he or she is because he goes to
either Dr. Anthony, who is a he, or Dr. Ghoul, who is a she.  They're
both good.  Same vet clinic.  Dr. Anthony is the original owner.  But he
took in Dr. Ghoul as a partner.  Some people here use the vet school,
but I've never wanted to do that.  I do like knowing, though, that it
has a 24-hr emergency room.  If your pet is an established patient
there, then the cost of using the emergency room is slightly lower.  But
I'd rather have Spencer going to Drs. Anthony and Ghoul, with the vet
school as an emergency backup.

Well, that's fine.  It is certainly your right to refuse to discuss
anything you want to refuse to discuss, although it does seem a bit
strange that you were discussing it earlier.  It was not long after you
moved into your house because I remember our asking you whether your
house was out in a rural area -- since you were talking about the need
for a gun there.

So, it's click and drag!  I really didn't get it, thanks.  I should've
know from their saying "link to."

ANYWAY I'm posting so much tonight because everybody is somewhere else, I
don't know where.  And where's my supper?  I don't know.  I guess I'll
open up a can of spinach and eat it over the sink.

The reality of a child living in a starving country is certainly different
from the reality of a child living here.   I believe there are many realities.

Yes.  In a cafeteria you can ignore the person across the table if you
don't know them well.  It's quite different, imo.

We obviously speak different dialects.  "Going out to eat" here means
going to a restaurant.  I didn't realize that it had a different meaning
in Austin.  That is my error, not yours.

Why are you yawning?  Thursday is Thanksgiving.  We also have Friday
off.  Having two days off for Thanksgiving is not at all unusual for
schools.  But what does that have to do with yawns?

Sandra writes,

>what was the Hokey Pokey man??? Did he sell ice cream????

"By 1870, the Italian ice cream vendor was a familiar sight on London
streets, called by British children the 'hokey pokey man'. It presumably
evolved from the cry with which the vendors hawked their cheap ice cream,
although what this originally was is not known. There have been several
suggestions: a corruption of Ecce, Ecce (Look, Look); a derivation of hocus
pocus; a corruption of Ecco un poco (Italian for Here's a little), the
Italian Oche poco (Oh how little) - the last one being a reference to
price, rather than the quantity, which gives it the most plausibility."

This is so like Ma Nuit Chez Maude!

Or, My Dinner with Andre.

And I, moviegoer, words-l participant, align with Bonniev in my personal
proclivities but with Betty in correcting these.

Whatever that all means.

That's a different sense of the word reality.  What you are saying above is
something more like "conditions vary from place to place"   or   "the way
some people live is very different from how other people live."   That's
certainly true.  But what I'm saying is that blue is blue and rain is rain
and wrong is wrong no matter what you or I might think about it.

It is not at all unusual.  And the "no wonder" doesn't work at all.
Bernard was quite svelte all of his life.  For the first four or five
years of his life, his only eating method was the there-all-the-time
method.  Iow, I didn't give him canned food at all -- just left dry food
in the bowl all the time.  I got into the canned food routine with him
later because I was a spoiler.  He loved it so much when I treated him
with canned food that I did it more and more often.  I continued to
leave the dry food in his bowl all the time.  Anyway, vets will tell you
that leaving dry food out all the time for dogs to self-serve is fine if
they are used to that routine and eat only when they're hungry.

There are some restaurants that seat you with people you don't know--I
forget the term for that. But that wasn't the scenario we were
discussing, in any case. Natalie always sits with her group.

Well, it's a given that I don't <get it>.  So there's not much point in
continuing the discussion.  I am incapable of understanding how somebody
could consider it more <valuable> -- oops -- Bethany insists on sticking
to the same part of speech -- scratch that <valuable> -- I am incapable
of understanding how somebody could put a lot more value on <getting
it>, which I assume means putting value on one's IQ, than on caring or
acting on caring.  But, as we've already concluded, I don't <get it>.
So there's nothing else to say.

Your error is in thinking that my usage mirrors the usage of Austin in
any way. "Going out to eat" to me means not having to eat at home. I
bet it means that to lots of people.

That's what I said, they are the same to you. People "picky

And am I ROFL.  This wouldn't surprise me from Dan Lester.  It does very
much surprise me from Alyce.

Ah so.  You are indeed correct.  To say that "I've seen people move
fairly long distances..." means that I have hovered beside them watching
them.  I confess to lying about that!  I have never in my life run along
beside a vehicle watching such a move.

Indeed.  I have not stood beside their car windows all night to watch
them sleep.  I have lied!

Have I suggested that your dogs aren't in good health?  I really do
think I'm mutant or something.  Everything seems to be non-sequiturish.
Why should saying that I don't know much about dog nutrition but that my
past dogs have lived to ripe old ages while eating commercial dog food
have suggested that I think that dogs you are feeding a different way
aren't in outstanding health?  And yes, I know that Vinnie donates
blood.  You have told us that before.  Spencer does not donate blood
because there is no dog-blood-taking entity here.  I, however, do donate
blood even though I eat at the sink.  That's because there is a way for
human beings to donate blood here on one day most months -- some months
get skipped -- like the next donation date is not until January.  Must
be those toaster-oven pizzas that make the blood-suckers love getting my
blood.

I heard you were not above saying "ewwww" in a clear girlish
timbre when you heard strangers ordering dead cow at restaurants.

I didn't suggest you were "picky about food". In some anemic
theoretical sense you are, now that I think about it. But let's
use the word "picky" to refer to someone who has some remedial
sense about good food, such as me. Otherwise we begin to call
Miller-lite-only frat boys "picky drinkers". Generally the more
picky you are the more catholic you are in your taste.

Why would I pay for it when I can't even make the free sample work?  I

Wrong--the crucial difference is that any ass can inflict
his company on you in a cafeteria. In a restaurant nobody
can. I've got to say though that I don't know the "etiquette"
of running into people you know at a restaurant. I think if
it's not a diner or anything, you can just kind of wave at
them and they'll mind their business. Maybe you can join
each other after you are done and get a drink or something.

He didn't challenge the poor to better themselves? This is
exactly why England is such a lame country.

Jeezus. Another "safer" thing you can do is successively click on
the letters, instead of dragging. Once you have highlighted the whole
word in the correct order, you can "submit" it. This allows you to
ponder the word, since half the time there is an "s" or "er" or "ed"
nearby.

When the game flashed a message saying `make the word "BUN" to gain
extra points', I must say tears filled my eyes. True fact. There are
a couple three stupid things which make me cry.

I don't often give money to street people....one is approached every few
blocks and on my walks I pass up a dozen a day at least. But today I gave a
dollar to a woman with a black eye. I probably should have given more. I
just felt bad for her. Once you open your pockets, it's so easy to just keep
pouring out money....and it's hard not to give and not give it a thought.

Thank you for the assessment, Dr Voigtlander. Yes, it was the flashing
arrows which finally got me. There was another one during my first game,
"cat" or something. Is there one shit-ass here who is made 100% of stone?
Cite. I pictured people struggling with "cat" and wanted to give them all
my stupid points.

It painted a very favorable picture of Lewis ...sincere, hardworking,
caring, devoted dad and husband, and genuinely devoted to Martin (whom he
loved working with). Martin is portrayed as a boozy, womanizer who put
little effort into their work, coasting on the hard work of Lewis. In
developing a relationship with Marin, Lewis recreated the very unfulfilling
relationship he had with his father ... someone who Lewis felt he never
could please.

Didn't know that there is more than one. He said the clerk took forever

he loves Tulsa on a cold night.

Interesting.  I'm sorry I didn't get to see it.
Much has been written suggesting that the
breakup resulted from Lewis' ego and
bossiness and condescending treatment
of Martin.

Me too.  We watched his CD's (the first 3 anyway)
again recently.  They are fun to watch.

I have something else I plan to watch sometime soon.
Several years ago Frank Sinatra did a special and had
a lot of the old stars on it.  One of my sons called me
and suggested I tape it, since all of these people were
retired or aging and wouldn't be around much longer.
I don't remember now who is on it, so watching it
should be full of surprises.

        Instead of asking words-l, why don't you simply schedule an
appointment with the nursing home administrator who can
explain to you how it all works?

And your point in quoting Donne is exactly what?  It makes sense that he
as a minister might use a context of God and The Prince of Darkness, but
I don't think they have to be in the picture for one to be
compassionate.  And I agree that somebody who turnest away his eyes from
the poor or stoppest his nose at their sores is suffering from
incompassionate bowels.

        I'm sure the coaches do.  As do the counselors.  As do many
of the parents.  All to no avail.

        The teenage power of denial is a fearsome thing.

        Our coach, btw, is Cliff Ice, and he looks like a GQ model.
Everytime I see him, it cracks me up.  He's a nice guy,
though, and he got the team to the States.  I may go down to
the dome Saturday to see them.  I'm not sure.  I don't like
football, but it's very <done> in Webster for staff to show
up at such things and sit in and among the kids.  Our kids
made us super proud on Saturday at the playoffs, which were
against McCluer North -- the school across the street from
me where all the girls have gone.  It went to double
overtime, and Webster squeaked out a 1-point win.  The
McCluer players had to exit the field through the stands
where the Webster fans were sitting.  Webster gave them a
standing ovation.  Brought tears to my eyes, especially in
light of all the rioting over college ball games.  I hope SI
mentions it in the article next week.  They snapped a photo
of me yesterday teaching in the computer lab -- I'm not sure
why.

I've never thought of the pros and cons of going to movies alone or not
alone.  I went to movies with people in my childhood and teenaged years,
but I'd guess that over 90% of the movies I've been to in adulthood have
been alone.  If there's a movie I want to see, I just up and go.  It
doesn't occur to me to turn it into a <social event> since I don't think
socializing in a movie theater makes much sense -- or at least not
except for holding hands with your boyfriend at the Pix in Jackson in my
childhood.

Why do you consider that important?  I'm not saying there's anything
wrong with your view.  I'm just curious about it.  And how do you define
reality?

Sorry.  I thought it would be clear from the context, which was Karen's
question about where I met friends socially.  I do not meet friends
socially in movies and restaurants in Starkville.  The people I know who
go to such places socially go with their spouses.  Other people go
alone.  I rarely go to a restaurant alone in Starkville, though I have
done it on a few odd occasions.  I have frequently gone to movies alone
-- "frequently" in relation to the number of movies I've seen in my
life, not necessarily in relation to the national average for
movie-going.

As for being gauche, this is the first time that element has been
introduced into this thread.  Why would it be gauche to go to movies or
restaurants alone or with friends or with blind dates or with whoever?
That makes no sense to me at all.

Exactly my point earlier.  When you asked where I socialized with my
friends, I said on campus every weekday.

The only person I've personally known of living in a car is Rita, and
that was not only before I knew her but also too far away for me to take
her to dinner.  I've known many people who have slept in cars while
traveling but nobody who has lived in them in single locales -- or at
least nobody I've known about at the time he/she was doing that.

What's a better place?  The sink seems as good a place as any,
especially since there's a window over it to look out at the trees and
birds while eating.  And that location puts me in position to wash the
spoon as soon as I've finished the yogurt.

Speaking of the kitchen, I must turn off the computer now and go stand
at the sink to eat some cereal before heading to campus to socialize
with my friends except that it's going to be a busy day without much
socializing time.  There will be lunch, though.  We will socialize in
the MSU <Restaurant>.

I hate abandoning piles of unread mail, but at least I can look forward
to a feast of list mail tonight.

I talked to Tina last night.  She had been to visit friends in Bremerton WA and they
went to Poulsbro - a sort of touristy Norwegian village.  She said there weren't many
real Norwegians there but that she bought a case of Solo to take home and that
made everything ok.

This one isn't gendered (or confined to people eating alone).
All kinds of people (except those with self-esteem or something)
do it. Might be age-related.

Umm--it's Poulsbo.  The "downtown" area is touristy; there is a great
garlic shop there.  According to the story, the Norwegians wanted to name
the town Paulsbo but some government official misspelled it and they never
got around to correcting it.

This is all reminding me of the wonderful stories one of my Toronto friends was
telling me this weekend about her Acadian Grandmother holding the lobster over the
pot, exclaiming "Ooh de poor t'ing" dropping it in and then closing her eyes, smiling
and saying "mmmmmmmmmmm".

Natalie's not the only one being deliberately obtuse. There is a
world of difference between eating at a cafeteria at one's work-
place and going out to eat in a restaurant. What about all the
wilful ignorance of that basic fact?

That's not necessarily true. It happens that eating a nice dinner together
is something we do most nights. *uc* is not a grazer, likes a real meal,
eaten at once, not in bits and pieces as one wanders by the refrigerator. I
am more than happy to join him on this, and really enjoy the process on most
nights -- planning, executing and eating. But left on my own, I'd be more
like Natalie probably. I just wouldn't bother. Except I'd go out and eat
alone a couple times a week probably.

Also, you just about have to go through Poulsbo to get to the bridge that
goes to the island on which Bremerton is located, although you could bypass
the downtown area of Poulsbo.  Our daughter, Lisa, and her husband Dan
bought a small house on the hill in Poulsbo about a year ago.  They have a
nice view of the Olympic Mountains on clear days.  We visited in
September.  Since then they have acquired a purebred sheep-herding puppy,
Emma.   Most mornings one would be able to see Lisa and Emma taking a walk
through the village of Poulsbo and down to the waterfront.  Small world.

I have a cure for that.  Go take a week's cooking class in
Tuscany.   Aversion therapy for food.  I've lost 12 pounds since coming
back from that experience.  A table loaded with food now engages my gag reflex.

That reminds me of one tourist, one time, who I think was from Europe, who
asked me at the Inn where in town she could get authentic Acadian food.  I
was sorry to have to tell her that this area is neither were the Acadians
came from or when they migrated to.  She had studied up on it in
preparation for her trip to Acadia National Park.

My favorite lobster story: The newlywed bride of a good friend was
brought up with servants and knew absolutely nothing of kitchens or
cooking. One day she came home and found some lobsters in the
refrigerator. Someone had sent them as a gift and the landlord had put
them in there while she was out. She got hysterical and called my friend
at work and screamed that there were dead animals in the
refrigerator--what should she do?

I must be missing something crucial.  I can't click and drag; and when I
successively click, as soon as 4 letters are highlighted they all get
wiped off.

This is bringing back an old frustrated feeling, like when I'm supposed to
assemble a toy or a piece of furniture and I just can't do it.  Tab A in
Slot B kind of thing:  I LOSE.

I heard him laugh. It's an evil laugh.  He is obviously up to no good.

oops, my bad.

I'm having a rare weekday off from work and it feel soo  strange.
Can't remember when I last did that. It's extra sweet cuz I didn't
know until yesterday that I had 3 days vacation I needed to take
off before the end of the year. So I can go party with my Philly
friends this evening and still (maybe) manage to clean the house
and get things organized for dinner tomorrow. It's going to be
tight.

Off to deal with more leaves,
-rashmi

Oh, mine is not like that at all. We can meet our goals and still
socialize, but you are way more serious than I am.

And I've got friends on campus. But what we do at work is not what I
consider socializing. Our at-work interaction generally tends to be
agenda-based and related to workplace goals.

I don't know what "can't" means. It's not click and drag of
course, it's click, HOLD down and drag. Releasing submits
whatever you have highlighted, which succeeds if you have
a word.

I don't believe it ... do they disappear from the board or do
they get un-highlighted? And are you clicking on an already-
highlighted tile?

I feel a lot better about "cat" and "bun", those must be for

Another bookseller report (they love this game--thanks, Tushar):

"I got up to 426,000 with that dang game-then my computer froze up
before I
could show Joe-and I got no books listed yesterday. Today I am making
myself
enter a few books FIRST so I don't feel too guilty."

This woman is a Thanksgiving Faerie. Today at the post office I picked
up an unexpected package. She has sent me crackers, three kinds of
cheese, chocolate bars--a feast. Hand-picked assortment, not a Hickory
Farms or Harry & David lot.

No. If you have documents to write, reports to file, papers to grade,
lctures to prepare, etc., and you are at work, why would you waste time
<socializing>? I like to get work done, then go on to other activities,
including <socializing>.

I don't mean that we are not civil to each other - or that we never share
water-cooler gossip - just that conversation generally is work-oriented.

I doubt it, but don't see how it matters what kind of work-place
we're talking about.

Back when we had a cafeteria, "eating out" at lunch-time always
meant going out of the building to a restaurant, never the cafeteria.

University cafeterias are generally at a central location on campus,
and anyone can eat there. Workplace cafeterias are generally in the
same building or the next one and only the workers can eat there.

True.

        Am not.  You take that back, Rashmi.


        Of course a cafeteria is different than Applebees, which is
different than McDonald's which is different than Steak 'n
Shake.  But they're all happy to take your money.

        I never eat in the cafeteria at work.  Too many *students*.  Eek.

        I occasionally eat in the teacher's lounge or the home ec
room, but mostly I eat in my own room because I need downtime.

        I do socialize at work.  I work with some pretty cool people.

        Today was a *zoo* all day.  I'm tired.

Can't you use fresh spinach instead?  I often eat fresh spinach over the
sink, but I don't remember that I've ever bought any canned spinach.
About the only cans I usually have on hand are dogfood, soup, and
tunafish.

The time is upon us ... I have drawn a name and I will now toil to
find a gift. I do not complain. But check this out--the organizers
suddenly started laying down RULES ... You can't give any form of
alcohol ... If you must give a gift certificate it better be for
something specific ... Excuse me? Once person X draws person Y, is
it not their own business? Besides, what kind of wussbag "rules"
are these? It's a damn GIFT from a close or distant FRIEND. Are
you going to hang your rep or self-esteem on that kind of peg?
Because that's definitely what it sounded like ... And if you
fear the utter humiliation and shame of getting a "tacky" gift
why are you setting this up?

Premature optimization is the root of all evil ...

I haven't seen the original yet, but I would say that you're more likely
to be seated with people you don't know at a restaurant than at a
cafeteria since you usually choose your own seat at a cafeteria.  But
the original above says "you don't know them well," not "you don't know
them at all."  In my group there are often people I don't know well --
newcomers sometimes join us -- as in somebody who knows some people in
the group well but doesn't know everybody in the group well.  So one of
these people might end up across the table from me.  But I would not
want to ignore the person.  I'd be interested in getting to know him or
her.

But re the idea of people you don't know at all, I find that less likely
to happen in a cafeteria than in certain restaurants.  In a cafeteria
you sit wherever you want to.  In most restaurants you are seated by a
seater.  Because I am often alone when eating out (since I do it mainly
when traveling), I am sometimes seated with strangers since the
restaurant doesn't want me hogging a whole table.  That I don't like --
unlike eating in the cafeteria with a newcomer to the group or with an
out-of-town guest somebody has brought along.

To me "going out to eat" means going out -- as in getting in your car or
at least walking a good distance -- as in leaving the place where you
are.  In the dialect around here, we don't say we're "going out" to
lunch if we mean leaving our offices and walking over to the cafeteria.
Some people do go out to lunch.  I've done it on occasions, though I
don't really like to since I consider it a hassle to leave campus in the
middle of the day and then return.  But anyway -- in our local dialect
"going out" means leaving campus.  A conversation might go like this:

-- I'm thinking about going out to lunch today.  Wanna go with me?
-- No, I don't really have time.  I'll just eat in the cafeteria and
then get back to these papers.

that I should not have assumed that it would be assumed from the context
of Karen's question that I was talking about <social eating>, not <solo
eating>.

Natalie, I bet.

I bet she washes it there then puts it in her mouth.

In fact come to think of it I might have done this once or twice . . .

I don't know what kind of mood you mean.  I didn't like that you seemed
to think that  just because I said that *I* don't know about balancing a
dog's diet from people food meant that I thought that *you* didn't know
and that your dogs are therefore unhealthy.  I was quite suprised when
you announced that your dogs are in outstanding health and that Vinnie
even donates blood.  Surprised not because either of the facts was news
to me.  Surprised because of the statements being made in response to
what I had said about being afraid I wouldn't know how to balance
Spencer's food properly.

Because I had only one question, and you answered it.  There's no
particular need to schedule an appointment of any kind.

Do you know why they say no alcohol?  Too impersonal or something?  (Like
the gift certificate rule is probably because it's too much like giving
cash)

I would think they'd be more likely to listen to coaches than to

I love that.  The rioting over college games reminds me of something I
heard from a student today and really do not believe.  He said that he
had heard that the Pres of Ole Miss had called the Pres of MSU and said
that he really didn't think he should come to the Egg Bowl -- that he
couldn't promise that he would be safe in Oxford.  Good story, but I
don't things are quite *that* bad, even though I do think tempers may be
worse with sucky, frustrated teams and fans as opposed to two good teams
and their fans.

        But that's not logical.  Science is discovering new things
about nutrition every day, yet you rely on Purina to balance
your dogs' diet properly in their partial but profitable
ignorance instead of just throwing real food at them like
nature intended.  The beauty of feeding a natural diet is
that you don't have to balance it, just offer a variety.  I
think that's your insidious 50's upbringing, though.  We
don't even balance meals for children anymore.  Just make
sure they're eating a good variety over the course of a week.

That I don't know what your point is unless it's to show that Donne put

Huh?  Getting what?  I can't remember any time in my life when I did not

Ahh.  Well, when Karen first mentioned that I eat in the cafeteria
everyday, I said that if you count that as eating out, then I do indeed
do it regularly.  I don't consider it eating out, but I really don't
mind at all your thinking of it that way.  It makes no difference to me.

Our best friend "im" lost his mother two days
ago and because "im" and his wife "aron" are
not churchy and would be having the funeral in
the funeral home, I knew there would be no
"everyone come back to the church for lunch
after the cemetery burial."  So another friend and
I offered to serve a lunch at their home afterwards,
and we did, and it went well, to my surprise, since
I am not a Ladies Aid person or a Ladies Club
person who does this sort of thing.

We served French Dip Sandwiches, a salad, chips,
a dessert tray, coffee and cold drinks.

The lunch brought raves, and if you ever need to
feed a bunch of people easily you might want to do
a search on French Dip Sandwiches.   Someone had
given me a recipe but I didn't like the fact that it
called for Italian seasonings.  Yahoo brought up something
like 3700 recipes, however, and after a lengthy comparison
I settled for the easiest one and it was great.  I cooked a
rump roast in the crockpot all night with 1 can French
onion soup, 1 can beef broth, and 1 can beer.  In the
morning I shredded the meat, using two forks.  We served
it on buns and I drained off some broth and removed the fat,
to use for au jus for dipping.  (You can also buy a powdered
commercial Au Jus mix, and I added some of that).

I would normally not think of this as funeral food, but
as "game day" food or "welcome home" food, or
something like that.  But it was a cold day here, with
ice and snow to cope with, and hot food was a comfort,
especially to the children and grandchildren.

Actually, now that I think about it, I sometimes did that in Japan,
except not on the couch.  I would sometimes put my bowl of soba/salad or
my plate of toaster-oven pizza on the little coffee table and would sit
on the floor beside it and turn on the tv set to see how much I could
figure out of what the people on the screen were saying.

I was googling for the sink-eaters club I remember hearing about in the
past.  Haven't found it yet but did find this picture of very tasteful
sink-eating:

I don't do it quite that way.

I get mildly curious occasionally about why it is so important to you to
put down Christianity. You are baptised, are you not? Oh, I forgot -
baptism is irrelevant to anything. No, I remember now, it's worse than
that - there is no such thing as baptism. There is no such thing as a
symbolic act with meaning. It's all about bird baths.

Do you have to go through it to get to the ferry?  Do y'all (some of
y'all) remember the night we were drinking at The Blue Moon Saloon and
Brad missed his ferry to Bremerton?

My chrysanthemums are blooming again, the ones that bloomed at the end
of the summer. And the ones that bloom in the fall.

My cauliflower has cute little cauls (or whatever they are) in the
middle, that I hope will grow to be big and healthy.

My tomatoes are still flowering, and there appears to be some actual
fruit developing. My peppers seem to be developing for the first
time.

After much soul searching, I left my leafy greens and herbs in the
ground. I may have lost my hibiscus last night (it doesn't look dead,
but it looks severely damaged), but the l.g.&h. look fine today,
there's no damage at all (but I don't think it got below 35 last
night). The national weather service says it's supposed to be 32
tonight and 28 tomorrow night (but 60 during the day). I watered
everything copiously today, and I'll do the same tomorrow. And pray a
lot.

Alyce, is it hard to transplant lilies? I have lilies that are nearly
as tall as I am, and much, much wider. They are blocking the path to
the back yard. I'd like to move them, but not if it would mean killing
them.

A well-known fact about men is that they are slobs. They like
eating gross food anywhere in the house and truly do not care
about the cleanliness or neatness implications. They might
leave a sheaf of paper napkins or something similar just lying
there for days, throw a plate in the sink and cease to care,
or leave an empty can of coke or beer on the table. Moreover
they have supreme self-esteem, leading them to believe that
they don't need to be made to stand and hurriedly finish
eating and remove all traces, just because their repulsive
slobbiness has driven them to the humiliation of eating alone.
For all these reasons, they don't eat right at the sink. Actually,
I hadn't even known of this disgusting practice until a couple
days ago, and it makes me want to vomit. Why can't you just
reuse the "gladware" from Sun Wah like normal people?

How are they different?  I've never eaten in a business cafeteria, as

So "im" had the Methodist minister officiate at
the funeral, because his mother was a Methodist.
In the foyer before the funeral he introduced me
to him, and I said, lamely, "How do you do.
I am a fallen-away Methodist".  and "im" said
"Yes, pastor, you will have today a roomful of
fallen away Methodists".  And the pastor said
"And I forgot to bring pledge cards."  And I said
"Don't worry.  We still get them in the mail."

I am impressed with the seriousness of your workplace.  Not only do I
take thirty minutes off in the middle of every day to eat lunch, but I
also sometimes have conversations in the halls about non-work matters.

We have to go out of our buildings to get to the cafeteria.  But nobody
I know considers that kind of going <out> as <going out to eat> or
<eating out>.  I have not suggested, btw, that our dialect is The Word.
If Karen wants to consider walking out of a building and over to the
cafeteria as <going out to eat>, that's fine with me.

That's most probably the major component. Plus probably some
trauma with getting a six-pack of Bud from a "boyfriend" at
the age of nineteen. Who the hell knows. "Alcohol" per se could
be the most personal gift imaginable, but no. At previous such
shindigs, I got some fine bottles of rum and vodka--since some
GUYS drew my name. I was not disappointed in the least.

Yes, of course. But the fundamental point remains, why should
there BE rules? Among N people there are like a SHITLOAD of
possible arrows you can draw, and each has its own dynamic.
This is a self-governing thing.

Anyway, please submit some ideas in case I get a female name.
I am already enveloped in horror ... because some of the ideas
for gifts that were being thrown around as really good or welcome
strike me as the lowest depth of TACKY

I have decided not to pursue that url after hearing all the talk about
how difficult it is to make it work -- all the dragging and getting
things in the row or whatever.  Doesn't sound enjoyable to me.

So have I, but I was drunk as a skunk. That's when taking
alternate bites out of a tomato, red onion and a bunch of
spinach feels like a great idea. However, that is not what
makes the Western world civilized.

But grocery stores aren't?  Iow, is this about spending money to eat vs
eating free by stealing food, or what?

They different for people who cook their spinach once in a while.
Though I don't think that two leaves of fresh spinach would cost
as low at Applebee's as at a store, even if you offered to go to
a sink to eat them.

Does your subject line mean that the recipient never knows who the giver
was?  I have almost no experience with drawing gift names.  In fact, I
can't remember off the top of my head ever having done it, although
maybe I have since I've known forever what it means.  The closest thing
I can remember was in Japan when a bunch of us bought xmas presents and
brought them to a party in a karaoke bar we'd rented for the afternoon
and we sang "Jingle Bells" while passing the wrapped gifts around the
large table, with whoever was accompanying us (the bar owner, I think it
was) to stop the music at a certain point and your gift was whichever
one was in your hands at that moment.  I can't remember now what I
bought or what I received or whether we told who had bought what.

        What was the question?  I have no idea what you're talking
about anymore.

        Oh, please.  I saw and attempted to teach every one of my 120
students today -- the peak of TURKEY DAY FESTIVITIES -- the
most important event of the year in Webster Groves, which is
after all the Center of the Known Universe, and not to
mention helped police the huge and extremely noisey rally
before the State Championship Game; instructed you on the
intricacies of Medicaid; did a grocery store run in which I
helped several clueless husbands sent for last minute items
by wives  far smarter than me; and have yet to make a
pumpkin pie. I am well past conscientiousness or
consciousness for that matter.  Taunt me a second time and I
shall begin filling my posts with "definately" and "alot."

No, no.  That part of what I said was not a joke.  In fact, I guess you
could say that nothing about the specific content of what I wrote was a
joke except that I somehow found it funny to respond to AnnBork's joke
by asking whether she couldn't use fresh instead of canned.  The truth
it, though, that I often eat fresh spinach over the sink.  I keep
lettuce and spinach in my refrigerator and grab a chunk of it to eat if
I'm cooking something like pizza.  I eat the greenery standing over the
sink while the pizza is cooking.

If you'd said this earlier, then I would not have thought that your
point was thinking that I had questioned the health and nutrition of
your dogs, which I have most definitely never done.  I know you know
more than most people about dog nutrition.

I do, however, wonder about the "that's not logical" at the beginning of
what you wrote.  It is indeed quite logical to expect me to worry about
such things since I am not a dog nutritionist.

Because the recipient might not drink would be my guess.  But then if
you know who the recipient is, you might know that he/she does drink.  I
agree re gift certificates.  Why not just give money?  At least for
something like this kind of gift-giving.  I did give a restaurant
gift-certificate to the person who fixed my grandfather clock but
wouldn't accept payment for doing it.

I guess maybe one difference between a gift certificate and money is
that the choice of the place the gift certificate is for is a personal
touch -- like you've given some thought to where the person might like
to shop or dine or whatever.  And many other gifts aren't exactly
<mysterious> re the amount of money involved -- like wedding presents in
patterns chosen by the couple or like MSU cheeses to people in this
community or whatever.  (I thought of the cheese example because I am so
very happy I remembered one day last week to check to see whether there
were any cheeses left other than xmas orders and that I was able to get
an Edam to take to my haircutter when I go on Dec. 9.)

I am of course not going to get into religious debate, but what in the
world makes you think I am putting down xtianity in what I wrote
here???  I really didn't understand why you quoted John Donne re
compassion since it seems to me that saying "those who ignore the poor
and the suffering are without compassion" (to give a quick paraphrase of
JD) is like saying the grass is green (why do we say that?  it isn't
always -- but accept here that my point is that it's a given -- a
no-brainer).  So I was sitting here thinking, "So what is her point?"
and decided that maybe your point was to work religion into it -- to tie
the idea of compassion to God and the Devil, as Donne did in what you
quoted.  If not, then what was your point?

You can think whatever you want to.  I'm not going to discuss religion.
Whether I'm <baptised> is really NOYB.  I am disappointed, however, that
I'm not going to be delivering food for the Methodist Church to shut-ins
tomorrow morning because they don't need any more volunteers.  I had
been planning on it.  (Meals on Wheels is taking a vacation tomorrow, so
churches are filling in.)

How about a sequined thong?  Or a gift certificate for a tattoo, with
directions as to what and where.

I suppose a rhinestone-studded lice comb would be insulting.

What would you think of as funeral food?  I think your menu sounded
good, btw, and of course the fact that you did it was good.

The churches turn out kinda bland ham sandwiches,
cheese, or egg salad, and lots of jello and cakes made
with  mixes.

Don't forget Survivor is on tonight -- but it's a summary one.  I still
have unread list mail, but I've gotta log off and eat the stuff that the
toaster-oven is about to ding about and then put a tape in to tape
Survivor for friends who are in Louisiana and then watch Survivor.  I
shall return.

    I work with a carload of people who are in AA, and those are just the ones
I know.  I can see how booze would be considered an inappropriate
"'all-purpose" gift.

    Oh, all right.
    Farmer Brown is walking to the chopping block, a hatchet in his left
hand and a chicken tucked under his right arm.  One of the on-looking hens
says "When my time comes I hope I go quietly.  None of that running

First, a correction. No name has been drawn, but that would have

Yes, that would certainly be the 6 zillionth variation on the
"gifts" theme. There are more of those than variations on "truth
or dare" style FUN games you can play at a party (all known in
complete detail by Janet Hardy).

What we do is, we don't divulge the name until gift-giving time.
To cover everyone in a nice way, the giver is made the next
recipient. To add more stupidity to the event, the recipient
opens the gift and tries to guess who the giver was. Then the
giver announces himself, then picks his gift and repeats the
dreary process.

My private beef is that when I said it's possible to do all
this electronically, without even the moderator knowing who
got who, they flatly refused to believe me. Then why do they
believe PGP really encrypts their mail? Suckabitch

I won't be making the lebkuchen until probably the 23rd or so. It will be
weird this year not being able to eat much of it - I usually have kept a
third of the pan for myself. Oh well, times change.

I don't see the cleanliness or neatness implications as relevant to
sink-eating.  I realize that I mentioned earlier than an advantage to
eating yogurt at the sink is that you're right there in the place to
wash the spoon.  But that is not a primary point.  It was a side-thought
that occurred to me as I was replying.  The reason for sink-eating to me
isn't about cleanliness or neatness.  It's simply that the sink is
usually conveniently located in a kitchen and quite often there's a
window there also, making that spot aesthetically pleasing.

I don't drag; rather, I click each letter sequentially.

I tried the diving-typing game today. Started at expert level and got up to

Did the rules include telling you how much to spend?  Knowing that will
make it easier to give suggestions.

Speaking of cakes made with mixes, have any of you seen the "Paula's Home
Cooking" show on Food Network? She made a "pumpkin gooey cake" on the
Thanksgiving-themed show that looked fantastic. Hmmm, no nutrition
information.

The question was whether eating in a cafeteria is different from eating
in a restaurant.

So it's routine there (both of theres) for funeral attendees to eat?
That's not the norm here.  I always take food to the home of somebody
who has died -- wait -- I don't mean I read the obituaries and take food
to every home -- I mean I always take food if it's somebody I know
well.  But the point of the food is that it keeps the grieving family
from having to cook and helps them with out-of-town guests.  That
doesn't have anything to do with feeding funeral attendees.  All the
funerals I've gone to have ended with the end of the funeral, or with
the burial in small towns.  That's a big difference between here and
Jackson.  In Jackson, nobody except family and very, very, very close
friends go to the cemetery.  In Starkville, lots of people go to the
cemetery.  But in either case, no food is involved.

        A luncheon is customary in our parish.  My MIL's parish did
one when she died.  It isn't the norm in my family at all,
but if I died here, I suppose there'd be one at St. B.

I'm ROFLing at the thought of you at such a scene.  Even I would
probably gag at such an event (except in Japan when a bunch of Japanese
friends are doing xmas -- that's somehow different -- will have to
ponder how).  Anyway, I would be ROFLing if I were involved in such an
event here, and I'm ROFLing even more picturing you with such an
involvement.

ROFL. To be given at an office party? Is the gift recipient male or
female? Please keep us informed of your progress in finding the right
thing. I wonder what you will receive.

Starts?  I'm not so sure about that.  Xmas displays started in stores
around here weeks ago.  But yes -- Thanksgiving to me means the start of
the xmas season, even though that means later than usual this year.  I
will put my wreath on my door Friday.  And I normally do my xmas cards
on Thanksgiving.

You said about cafeterias and restaurants that "they're all happy to
take your money."  My point was that any sellers of food are happy to
take your money.  Even Piggly Wiggly, I guess, although I've never lived
in a town that had one.

the French onion soup mix? Why have I never heard of them before?

It is obviously not a truth.  I do think that both players and fans

Shouldn't be. But you should wait till they've died back. I think you
shouldn't move them while they are lively. Look it up to be sure. I
never have done it, but that doesn't mean that you can't.

I assume Karen is talking about lilies other than daylilies.  Daylilies
are the ultimate in ease of transplanting.  In fact, you have to
separate and replant them if  you don't want them to choke out each
other.  The best time to do it is fall.

I won't be making my chocolate-covered nuts until mid-December.  But I did
bake an apple and a pumpkin pie this morning.  Made the crust in each case
from scratch.

There was a luncheon in the church basement after my father's
funeral.  When Clyde's mother predeceased his father, the three of us
decided to hold the after-funeral thingy at a local tavern.  I have never,
ever drank that much in all my life.  People kept buying us drinks.  When
Clyde's father died, the rest of his family prevailed and the luncheon was
at a church, which he never attended.

        The type of football player I'm talking about tends to spend
an inordinate amount of time with the counselors.  The
counselors at WG are pretty integrated into all the
students' lives -- probably not like you're thinking.

I think a gift certificate would be tacky because the precise amount of
money would be known. And then compared. He got $15. She only spent $5.
I'll bet he bought that on sale for only $7.50. I was gypped--mine is
only worth $3. Etc. A nice box of chocolates should do it. They can be
had for any price for $3.95 upward. And if the recipient is not into
chocolate, he can always give it to someone else as a gift. Like a
fruitcake.

What does die back mean? I don't think these every disappear. But I've
never seen 5' tall lilies before, either.

41 degrees. Hm. I may be out there at 3AM rescuing plants. I'll
probably transplant them in February. That seems optimum transplanting
time.

I love that all the bulbs I planted last fall are finally coming
up. Sheesh.

I remember my uncle's post-funereal pot luck in Poynette, Wisconsin.  I
stayed close to my aunt, my favorite best loved aunt, who was the recent
widow.  I was horrified to hear how the other less recent widows
'comforted' her - mostly by telling her how horrible it was and how
horrible it would be, the life she would lead henceforth.  I can't
remember details, it was just like witches giving curses YOU SHALL BE LIKE
US, LOVELESS AND BITTER AND LONELY

The food was good though.

I know nothing about lilies vs. daylilies. I think these ones are
called spider lilies.

Wow.  That doesn't sound like the part of Wisconsin I'm from.  They would
more likely tell the grieving widow:  "well, now the bastard's dead.  life
begins anew.  celebrate!"   I know my mother seemed to have a fairly happy
twenty years of widowhood.  She even had a boyfriend for awhile until he
died too.

My guess is that they can be transplated as long as the temperature
isn't below freezing.  But I won't swear by that.

Well maybe it's a matter of age.  My aunt was maybe 75.  Or maybe a matter
of ethnicity?  My uncle's parents were German immigrants, my aunt's were
Scottish/English.

But the sentiments you relate above I think just weren't available to
them.  Not to seem too sentimental, but my uncle was a gentle funny dear,
and all of the men I've met in Poynette Wisconsin were pretty
non-bastardly.

I'm thinking this may be a denominational thing.  Your parents were
Catholic, right?  What about Clyde's?  The reason I'm suddenly thinking
this is that I have been invited to after-funeral thingies involving
food after all the funerals I can remember in recent history at the
Catholic Church.  Everybody was invited.  I have not gone because it
always struck me as inappropriate to go since I thought maybe they
really meant just out-of-town family even though they seemed to mean
everybody.

Perhaps not.  What I was thinking was that many athletes seem to revere

Normally they are sandwiches made with something
like sliced prime rib beef on a hoagie bun or a French
bun and as you eat you dip it into au jus.

This recipe is instead a chuck or rump roast cooked
until very done and tender , then shredded and piled
onto a bun.  Using a crockpot makes it an easy dish
to prepare.

I researched on the net because that's where I always
look for recipes anymore, for anything.

That to me has always been why gift certificates seem odd.  But, as I
said a little while ago, I do understand that one shows some caring in
choosing the <right> gift certificate for somebody -- as in the <right>
place.  And lots of other gifts have values that are known precisely by
the recipients.  Still, though, I'd rather not give a gift certificate.
It's too much like giving cash, which is something that I realize varies
by culture, as we've discussed before -- it's considered <tacky> in my
culture.

> And then compared. He got $15. She only spent $5.

Now that is something that I don't really think is likely to happen.
Talk about tacky -- that is beyond tacky.  But surely there is some
price range specified in a situation like this, isn't there?

?  I'm the one who does not consider a cafeteria a restaurant.  You were
the one who seemed to suggest that anybody who wants to take your money
is a restaurant.  I have no idea where the local Exxon station fits into
the picture since I don't think we have one.

But you are going to shop, right?  And eat? I wonder if there are
cafeterias or if you'll have to sit next to strangers and give them "the look"?

        OK, so why is a cafeteria not a kind of restaurant?

AnnBork was allowed to rail on and on about the spelling of anymore the

suggesting that you can't dip something *into* *au* juice.  Those two
prespostions don't work.  You can dip it into the juice but not into the

I assume. Because Daylilies are not lilies, as I believe we have

My mother was 73 when my father died.  They were both of German descent.  I

Neither, I hope. I don't <do> cafeterias, generally. (Nor strangers, for

Actually, The Plan is to eat at Rainforest Cafe. Carl loves it, and my

Because it's sucky all over. The rule is that if you don't have a job
by Nov 1, you won't get hired till Feb, but this doesn't seem to be
the case right now. I've had as many interviews this November as I did
the entire previous year and a half.

I heard from the agency, uh, today, I think. What day are we on?
Anyway, she said that we might not hear till Monday, and if this
doesn't work out, there's something else she can put me on.

Night! Enjoy tomorrow.  My niece just called and asked if she could bring
her baby sitter and then informed me her boyfriend would be over after he
gets off work two hours after our dinner is planned.  LOL

My daughter may be moving up north to the place of the first allied victory during WWII (and the Free Polish participated, although I doubt there was any cavalry). This may be too simple to pass as a CondeNast question and I will add that the Royal Navy, the French Foreign Legion and others were involved. Up there they plan to have at least one child in May - if there are more we will know some time next week.

See earlier discussion for the various reasons.

To me the broad category "eating place" includes various kinds of
places:  cafeterias, automats (though I don't think anybody uses that
term anymore), cafes, pubs, fast-food places, restaurants, probably
others that I'm not thinking of at the moment.  The lines between cafe
and restaurant or pub and restaurant are sometimes hazy.  The line
between cafeteria and restaurant isn't hazy to me.  In a cafeteria you
walk in, pick up a tray, go through a line getting your food, pay a
cashier at the end of the line, carry your tray to a table of your
choice, and eat the food.  In a restaurant you walk in, usually are led
to a table, sit down, look at a menu, give your order to the waitperson,
have your food brought to you unless the place has a buffet or salad bar
that you've chosen to participate in, eat the food, are brought a check
which you more and more these days pay at the table instead of at a cash
register in the front, leave a tip, and depart, usually with friendly
nods or goodbyes or comeagains from employees.

That's not why I was assuming it.  "Lilies" in common parlance includes
lots of flowers that technically aren't lilies.  Spider lilies are other
non-lilies, aren't they?  I never can remember which are <real> lilies
between spider and tiger.  I think tigers are but spiders aren't.
Doesn't really matter to me, though, which is why I can't remember.  The
reason I assumed Karen was not talking about daylilies was that I bet
she knows that they are extraordinarily tolerant of being <jerked
around> at pretty much any old time.

Is this an agency you've been working with long, or is it one you've
discovered fairly recently?  Somehow I get good vibes about it.  I.e., I
think it sounds good.

Difficult to get rid of!  They also seem to be kind of cyclical -- like
some years they pop up everywhere, while other years they are more
restrained.

Not Lofoten - there were commando raids there later, but the place I am thinking about saw war in 1940.

Here in this part of the Sucky South, there are no cafeterias iike the one
Natalie has described (except on the UT campus). Here, at a cateteria,
you walk in, get a tray, then select food items as you chat with
friendly employees, some of whom will bring you special order items
(broiled fish, for instance). At the end of the line, you get a check.
Then a friendly employee appears to carry your tray to a table of your
choice (one that has probably been reserved for you if you are a regular),
asks if you want anything else, etc. Periodically, the friendly
employee appears to ask if you want more coffee, water, or a slice of pie
after all, etc. Eventually you finish all food and conversations, then pay
another friendly employee with whom you also chat.

It is hard for me not to think of such a place as a restaurant. I do not
know anyone here who talks about <eating places> - our generic is
<restaurant>.

As far as I have been to funerals in Norway there are often a kind of funeral party for the invited after the funeral - although the invitation may often not be any more formal than a spoken one when you meet at the funeral.

I thought back in July that working 5 days a week open to close

I don't know why you would assume that.

In any case, the reason I'm asking about this is because of the size
of the plant--it's so large, I wonder if it's transplantable. But at
the same time, it can't stay where it is.

How is the knee?  Recovery sometimes takes a while even with younger
people.  Not that you are that old.

I have only met him during the moving last year. But he did not seem stupid - he lured me into helping them with carrying stuff four flights up. I am sure that helped prepare me for my meniscus operation.

That is not what these are like at all. I have no idea what you mean
by 'pop up everwhere'. 5' tall plants don't 'pop up'. These puppies
are fixed, they are just too large. I have some in the bed with my
tomatoes, too, that have to be moved, but those are smalled. 2'
working on 3'.

Here's what they look like: http://artbyjoyce.com/spider_lilies.htm

Bingo: http://www.tpwd.state.tx.us/adv/nphoto/n2_11.html says "Spider
lilies (Hymenocallis liriosme) are fleshy, perennial herbs growing
along stream beds, in ditches and around the marches of Northeast,
Southeast and South Central Texas."

So this means they are the same family as daylilies, right?

I must admit that I didn't think of Lofoten off the top of my head.  I

The MSU cafeteria is the only cafeteria around here.  I have eaten at
places like Morrison's and Picadilly when out of town, but it's been
many years since I last did.

I've never been in that type of cafeteria (although all cafeterias will

I assumed they weren't spider lilies since you mentioned they were very
large.  Spider lilies aren't (nor or daylilies unless there are too many
clumped together, in which case they stop blooming).  When you asked
"what are spider lilies," I didn't think you were asking "are these
spider lilies."  I said nothing to suggest that 5' tall plants "pop
up."  Spider lilies do.  Even if you think you've managed to get rid of
them all by digging up the bulbs, you will see more popping up.  They
seem to spread also.  Somebody I know was talking a few months ago about
how her across-the-street neighbors' spider lilies had leaped into her
yard, even though the street is fairly wide.

Quite likely.  They are native here also and thrive on abuse, as do
daylilies.  I don't think they look much alike, though.

Fast-food place.  See list above (though, as I said when writing it, I
may be leaving out some categories).

Me too.  I would never choose a cafeteria if going out to eat.  I do
cafeteria five days a week and would prefer to do a restaurant when
going out.  That is also why I don't like salad bars or buffets.  I'll
do a salad bar only if it's the only option for getting a salad, but I
don't like it.

I just looked at that url and was surprised to see that they were

Yes, she's not acting as if she did:  she's not trying to cough anything

that Brandy had, but it was already too late when we saw those signs.
Besides, she's not interested in thread as he was.  I bet she thought of

Spencer just vomited on the rug.  I hate that dogs are sometimes
vomiters.  It's not like huge vomits.  Little spit-ups would be a better
description probably.

And while we're on this lovely subject, did I mention having to walk
through child vomit at Wmart to get to the couscous a week or so ago?  I
really needed that couscous.

That's because you can parse "au jus."  To most English-speaking eyes, the
whole phrase is one opaque element, and leaving off part of it wouldn't
make sense.

I just tried playing The Game, btw.  I don't like that it goes on and on
and on forever.  I like games with endings.  I finally let a red tile
crash and was declared a "senior librarian."  It's kind of fun, although
I don't think I understand it very well.  The letters just seem to keep
on and on coming, with there being little need to do the things one does
in Scrabble, like carefully save the u's because of q's (I don't like
that qu is together on a single tile in this game -- that seems like
cheating) or like saving s's for when you need them most.  I was hording
my s's carefully when I suddenly realized there seemed to be no reason
to.

I haven't thought of it that way.  I just don't like having to get up
from the table and tromp around.  I'm lazy, I guess.

        But I pick up my food on a tray and seat myself, then throw
away my own trash.  No menus or anything like that.

Hm. I've only had them divide. It's crammed into this corner with a

I take it there is a young man involved.
And it sounds like a possibility of

Yes. They don't have bulbs like real lilies--they have tubers that then
have runners to the next plant and the next and the next. I think you
can be pretty ruthless about digging up, separating, and replanting. I
never have seen these. They are not in my marsh, but I am not really
northeast--I am mid-Atlantic.

Okay. I have cannas, and I'm planning to be ruthless about them. I can
practice on them. I have these gorgeous cannas around my trees where
they get absolutely no sunlight. I don't know what they are doing
there.

Wow. I didn't realize 'mid' started so far north.

Did anyone mention a price limit?
Someone suggested chocolates, and I think
you can't go wrong with that.
At Sam's Club you can buy a large box
of elegant Belgian chocolates for $10.

My daylilies have whatever you call it that's sort of like jonquils have
-- I wouldn't call it leaves -- something like fronds maybe?  The spider
lilies I know of don't have as much bottom greenery -- they're like on a
slender stalk.

I like the fact that the game is not timed.  Gives
me time to search and plan.  Also I can leave the
game and come back to it later.

Natalie, I think if you continue to play (which
I could hardly recommend) you will discover
there is indeed strategy involved.  Make long
words.  Make the secret word, or whatever it is,
down in the left corner.

It had apparently just happened.  When I arrived in that aisle and saw
the vomit, I saw a little boy sitting in the grocery buggy looking sick
with his mother sort of hovering over him.  I started to check back by
in a minute or two to see whether anybody was cleaning up the vomit, but
I was in a hurry.

I started to ask a minute ago but know I've asked before and can't
remember the answer and knew I would be fussed at for asking again --
but now I've decided to.  What does one do with a dvd player?  Isn't it
that thing that you hook to a computer and watch movies on your
computer?  Or can you hook it to a tv set?

I don't like timed games.  I just meant that I wish you could end a game
more quickly.  Like I sometimes play a game of Freecell or Scrabble
before turning off the computer at night or when I'm waiting to go
somewhere or whatever.  And they end reasonably quickly.

I played it one more time and was declared an Archivist.  But I still
don't know what I'm doing.  I figured there must be a strategy, but what
it is I don't know.  It seems to be happy when you play long words, yet
I tend to do the way I do in Scrabble -- going for the big-numbered
letters etc.  I don't really understand the scoring.  What's this about
a secret word?  Another problem I've had is that my fingers are klutzy
at times and a word hops over to be submitted before I'm through with
it.

But I don't need to play again any time soon!  I have papers to grade, a
ton of magazines piled up, a house that could use cleaning, etc. etc.

But for $19.95 you can have FOUR at a time from Netflix.

The main consideration is the mailing time. When I first subbed to
Netflix last January, they only had a place in California. The mail took
a week to ten days and I was sitting with no DVDs for several days. I
had thought I'd get 20 movies a month, but I really only could get about
6-7 because of the long waits. But in about April, they opened a place
in Flushing, Queens, and now it is so fast I can't believe it--two/three
day turnarounds.

So if you go with the Slate place to save $6.00, consider how long it
will take to get the discs back and forth. Otherwise you will sit with
no DVDs and be unhappy.
Don't know anything about Slate and am not knocking it, but Netflix is
wonderful. Fast and outstanding customer service, too (because I never
got a disc and they believed me).

I'll be keeping my VCR until they can produce a very good DVD

more than for watching prerecorded movies.

VCRs are practically extinct now.  I've found it hard to get any VCR except
some cheap piece of crap.   On the other hand, I only looked at Walmart.  I
wish the price would come down for DVD recorders.  I need to record my
soaps each afternoon.

Knowing that everyone has VCR tapes that are
important to them, maybe it would be a good
investment now to buy up VCR's for later sale
to them as a scarce item.  Another get rich
quick scheme.

goopy masks to put on my face. I have a body shop green clay mask
that's really nice, and I found a cheap St. Ives mask that's pretty
good.

I like feeling my face stiffen up and not being able to laugh, and I
especially like the feeling when I can remove it and my face feels all
smooth and wonderful.

This is probably TMI.

Some years ago, I was planning a lunch for a man I was dating (only saw him
a few times). I asked if there was anything he didn't like to eat...he
replied it would be easier to list the things he did eat rather than those
he didn't. He stated he only ate SIX things, three of which I remember:
chicken, mac 'n cheese, and iceberg lettuce (which has negligible
nutritional value). We ended up eating at a Chinese restaurant and he seemed
dismayed when the chicken was still in "big pieces." Good grief. This
ungrown man was raising three little boys whom I hope one day will be more
of a big boy than their daddy. I ought to send this in to the Sex & The City
writers. It was our last date :)

So it works on any tv set?  Why was I thinking you had to have a special
tv set for one?

So I guess it's going to be like paying humongous amounts of money to
have videotapes turned into dvd's -- like having old home movies turned
into videtapes.  What a hassle.

Something just occurred to me.  Isn't this the day when Bethany usually
goes out to bless the foxes?  Are you doing that today, Bethany?  Wait

hunters?

I can't find a listing of the various ranks in The Game.  I played it
still another time a little while ago and was deemed Master Librarian.
But I don't know whether that was a step up or a step down from
Archivist.  Meanwhile, I'm still confused about some things.  Just as I
was plotting and planning and almost to the point of being able to play
the secret word (okra), the k just vanished.  I didn't use it.  It just
went away.  I did play a couple of other secret words, though, plus one
that I thought was the right one but wasn't.  I thought the word under
the worm was rum and happily shifted my letters around to be able to
play it, only to realize that what it had been saying was rim, not rum.

I have 8/$39.95. I am a little behind in watching since Ken left, but
when he was here we did 25-30 a month, which was a pretty good deal.
Even though I watch fewer, it still is a boon for me because I don't
have to go get them in Red Hook and return them. Probably I'm doing
15-20 a month now, which is cheaper than renting, counting gas.

Maybe. But I heard on a business show that they are hardly selling
anymore. Already VHS movies are being discarded and replaced by DVDs, in
the same way as CDs replaced vinyl.
At the auction house, you can buy great lots of VHS movies for a few
dollars.

Or, start a business transferrring the tapes to DVDs for people, just as
8mm home movies were put onto tapes. Now those will have to be
transferred to DVDs, which is going to lose quality, but will be better
than nothing. VHS tapes don't last forever anyway. A lot of wedding and
baby videos will be lost--I don't think that everyone realizes that VHS
tapes are transient.

We took our family movies from our old reel-to-
reel and had them put on VCR to preserve them
and so we could watch them.  (The old film
tapes were breaking up).

Now people have all their family pictures on
VCR, plus tapes of their favorite shows, etc.
VCR's will only be used to watch this stuff.
But, unless they can be converted to DVD's,
they will still want a VCR for viewing.

I don't know, but I have read that VCR's will
be extinct and hard to find, in time.

Yes, and that brings us full circle. I am thinking of buying one for the
future for when they are unavailable, as I said earlier.

It just dawned on me that one wouldn't need a VCR or DVD recorder to record
one's soap operas if one had TiVo.  But then it further dawned on me that
TiVo wouldn't do us any good in recording soap operas because we can't get
the network channels on DirecTV.  But maybe the TiVo thing records anything
that the TV can see.  I'm getting too old for all this new technology.

Are you sure they are any good?  I bought a new one a few months ago at
WalMart to replace the one I had.  I made sure to get a different brand and
one that looked better.  But when I got it set up it was the exact piece of

Oh yes. I did the blessing for two years, then last year was able to
locate a new-to-the-area Episcopal priest from N. Ireland who was
overjoyed to be invited to bless - he had never done a blessing in spite
of having grown up in fox-hunting country. He blessed again this year. I
am now the <backup> - we bless hounds, horses, riders, foxes, land, the
landowners over whose land we ride, etc. The priest's wife is also from
N. Ireland - she has fond memories of hunts on Thanksgiving Morning that
began in the town square she lived in.

This year, still nursing a post-op knee, I stayed only for breakfast and
the blessing. (Also, it was quite cold.) Usually I stay for the catered
lunch about 12:30-1. There is a tally-ho wagon for nonriders - it follows
the hunt wherever it goes. Well, it actually stays on the road, but
<generally> follows the hunt.

I expect to ride within the next few days - for the first time since my
surgery. I have an experienced hunter getting Maria ready for me. Also,
yesterday Maria was videotaped for the commercial she will star in. It is
to be aired sometime in January.

If anybody's watching on NBC... the Irish, Saxony's Snow In
August, looks very much like my Vinnie (head and coat), and
they share a grandfather... this is what Vinnie would look
like if I had him in full coat.

Saxony Setters is in Lexington, KY.

I think it would work okay, and you'd probably love it.

We've got a DishNetwork PVR, and luckily, local channels over the dish.

Separately, just saw mention on a blog about <http://www.greencine.com/> --
same model as NetFlix, but "with an emphasis on indie, arthouse, anime,
foreign, classics and other esoteric fare."

Yeah, about $30 actually. Seems sort of high if you don't know
that it's a smaller and more "special" group.

    I believed I mentioned my fruitless hunt for a tape of "Lone Star" last
Christmas, where the girl at Best Buy gave me a pitying look and said they
hadn't stocked VHS tapes for over two years.  (Maybe I'd better get cracking
at finding a nice used copy of "The Stunt Man" while I still can.)  They
still have children's titles, for all the kids who have VCRs in their
bedrooms.

    Some time ago I decided to get a reel-to-reel deck to replace my dead
Sony.  Every pawn shop I went to told me the same story:  One man hit the
Valley and bought up every one on sale.  (Someone else did the same thing
with older - pre-SUV - Toyota Land Cruisers.)
     Then of course many titles won't make the transition, just as many
didn't make it from vinyl to CDs, and some just won't for reasons other than
'marketing'.  Remember how "The Manchurian Candidate" was shelved for thrity
years?  And some, like "The High & The Mighty", are owned by people who say
they will never release them in any format.
    And keep in mind that TiVo is keeping track of everything you watch,
catagorizing you, and has been from the beginning.  Can't blame Ashcroft for
that.

Hah! Reel-to-reels have been scarce at least since 1987. My parents had
one and a lot of tapes, too, including some of me when I had the radio
show, and an account of my travel to Russia, and Daddy's reminiscences
of his boyhood, etc.
When my mother died, I took all that. Then the machine malfunctioned and
I took it to a repairman. Days/weeks passed and it was "not ready." Then
I got angry and said just to give it back. But he couldn't, because it
was not there. Stolen? Sold? Don't know. When Ken threatened to kill
him, he gave me an inferior used one and it is no good at all. So, I
have a broken reel-to-reel and unlistenable tapes.

No, not an office party, thank god. Just a few friends, very
reasonably deciding that giving and receiving 5 $6 gifts sucks
and doing the same with one $30 gift is a lot better. (Although
both office parties when we did this were rollicking successes.)
My recipient is female. I will not get any kind of freaking
necklace or perfume (which were mentioned) because--I mean
damn I am not that creepy. This person has so much crap around
the house that anything on those lines is ruled out too. It is
a big problem. But fruitcake ought to do it. As to what I will
receive--I hope it's some kind of pen or ink or notebook or
paper.

Well, anyway I heard some lame old cliches come up, which is
one valuable thing about these projects. Apparently men are
not "supposed to" like any stationery or fancy pens, etc. What
the HELL? And by the way, that I am discussing this this early
pretty much makes me alien--because all men are expected to go
buy a gift certificate at 8 that day (we are meeting at 8:30).
No real objection to any of this ... those want to stay with
those exact same thought processes all their lives may do so
and rot.

Nothing. But I would state it the reverse and correct way:

If the female friend cooks, you could give her a nice assortment of
special herbs, or vinegars, or....the cooks know what I mean.

Probably locally. Patricia Neal Rehab Center. Maria's previous owner,
Carswell Hughes (rector, 1st Pres in downtown Knoxville), nearly got
killed in a fall off her (that's how I got her) - in rehab he met his
present wife, who works there. The Center is making a commercial. Carswell
will be riding Maria, talking about how rehab helped him get back on a
horse (he wanted to say "my horse" but of course I vetoed that -
it's been 7 years since she was "his horse").

Um, nine years ago, actually. That was the Big Four O, so this must
be (click, whir) - well, let's say next year'll be a big one. Hard to
believe, isn't it...

Thanks all for the birthday greetings. I've been very inactive on
WORDS-L, though I do read as much as possible, and of course at least
scan for my name. Things are extra hectic at work (the current
climate for software vendors is not, shall we say, conducive to
slacking), and at home the kids (5 and 8 1/2!) keep us busy around 25
hours a day.

Regards to all...

I just saw a Target commercial with Wayne Newton and I _think_ he was
advertising a combination DVD player/VCR for $139.00. Can there be a
combo like that? Never heard of it and I was far from the TV so cannot

A shitty VCR defaults to Spanish when the power goes out.  A shitty VCR
does not allow you to use the number pad when setting up timed
recordings.  You can only use the fast forward, rewind, stop, and play
buttons to navigate through the menu when choosing time, channel, day,
etc.  A shitty VCR does not know about daylight savings time
adjustments.  A shitty VCR works for about two years and then starts
getting very noisy.

Yes, I've seen those marketed at Sam's Club for about that price.  Note
that this is not the same as a DVD recorder.

Noted. I said Player. I have no interest at this time in recording DVDs.
Too complicated. I never tape on the VCR either. I just watch stuff.
That being the case, because I want to have a spare VCR, it would make
sense to buy a combo. I have a VCR in the kitchen now and two DVDs--one
in the kitchen and one to watch in bed. But the kitchen one is Ken's and
I am to send it to him when they are settled. So then I will only be
able to watch VCR tapes in the kitchen or DVDs from bed. That limits me.

Well, actually it is $20, but $30 is "acceptable".

I had a lovely Thanksgiving with Ligniere and some of his friends. It
lasted... Well, something like 9 hours. And I totally forgot that it's
supposed to be 28 degrees tonight, so I better water everything!!!!!
And being replete with food and drink and conversation, I am not
eager to go out in the cold. But luckily, now they are saying that the
low will be 35. Safe for another night...

I don't know what I'm going to do the week I'm gone. Maybe cover
everything with black plastic, yeah, that's the ticket... I wonder if
I'll still have tomatoes in late December.

It looks like it's just you and me. Maybe I should phone you and we
should hang out. We're in the same time zone and all, after all...

Or maybe I'll take a bath and go to bed.

I think the best way to steam vegetables in the microwave, but I have
a friend who is an excellent cook who can't manage to do this. She's
not mutant, however.

I don't know. Combos bother me--what if one part goes bad?

It's "amused", OKAY? Also, I repeat that I am not a nerd. For example,
I was at a family dinner today (not my family) which was straight out
of ladies home journal or something (pretty amazing, actually) and I was
freakin GREAT. Joke with the old boys, talk with the hostess, complete.
T Bone can socialize at any level if T Bone wants to. Wordsler geeks
are the ones who can't. Hence, they shouldn't be sniggling and giggling
about T Bone receiving a fruitcake etc. There's been a lot of it going
on lately. The thought of T Bone shopping at Barneys makes Rashmi laugh!
The thought of T Bone in a secret santa relay team makes Mutant ROFL!
And now Alyce, Betty etc! The truth actually resides in examples like
this--T Bone recently walked into "Lord & Taylor" and walked out in 20
minutes with a DAMN expensive jacket at an astonishing discount. T Bone's
ultra-smooth game worked on the sales force, as every time. T Bone truly
can be the male brown analog of a blonde, if sales forces be analogized
to males. Perhaps that is too complex a metaphor, but you could deduce
what it meant if the giggling and ROFLing were stopped for half a second.
"T Bone is such a dynamic presence" -- googlism.com.

You and your bankrupt neighbor are particularly sucky. Of the
teeming multitudes I know who got laid off in the last two years,
there isn't one who is not doing some sort of job. Some random
economist mumbles about diversified economic base and you believe
it? Man, you always get lists with Minneapolis being the most
happening city etc. I know from reliable long-term residents
that M'polis, Denver etc are dull damn places.

Indeed. But tomorrow I will see the grandchildren I already have: the red haired (we suspect) twins.

I'm going crazy looking at Consumer Reports and websites - I want a DVD
player (NOT recorder). I already have a (fairly new, very
satisfactory) VCR (plus another one. also very satisfactory, built-in in
a smalll tv set). How does one choose among single, multi-, etc.?

(I've been up since 5, but I do NOT shop in stores on the day after
Tgiving.)

I occasionally steam them in the microwave, but I prefer steaming them
in my electric steamer.  Or with asparagus I use my special asparagus
steamer because of the shape.  It's not electric.  It sits on the stove
burner.

I've gotten some fantastic bargains in department stores at 6 a.m. the
day after Thanksgiving, when I've been in places that have such stores.
This year I'm in Starkville, however.  There is a small McRae's in
Columbus, but it's not really worth driving that far to visit.  Tupelo
has both a McRae's and a Parisian, but it's for sure too far and will be
way too crowded.  I'm very seriously considering getting cruise-control
for my car, in which case I will combine that event with going to stores
in Tupelo.  There's even a TJMax in Tupelo.

But back to the DVD question.  That announcement yesterday about Wmart's
having them for -- what was it? -- $49? -- combined with the followup
discussion has made me get interested.  I almost never rent movies,
though.  I use my vcr mainly for taping movies to watch later.  Still,
though, I was looking at an ad recently for a short documentary about
the MSU basketball team in the early '60s that violated the state law
and sneaked away to the NCAA tournament.  I was thinking of either
buying it for myself or buying it for my RRB for xmas or doing both.
It's offered in either vcr or dvd form, the latter being appropriate for
my RRB&SIL I'm sure since they have some kind of huge, magic tv thing of
the ungodlily expensive type.  Last time I was there some man with a
computer was spending all day <programming> this tv thing.  Anyway, I'm
pondering going to Wmart today and looking at DVD-players.  It might be
worth $50 to have one.

Don't do it, Tushar.  Fruitcake is a joke gift.  A thing you give to
someone that you don't give a rat's ass about.  They are not like the
famous Shoshana fruit cake.

My heifer cards have arrived.  My RRB&SIL&N are once again getting
llamas and ducks and stuff, whether they like it or not.  How's that for
<sensitive> shopping?  Screw the druthers of the recipients!  (Those
won't be their only gifts, of course.)

I trust that Tushykins knows that.

Meanwhile, however, good morning, Bad Betty.  I've been sitting here
sipping coffee from my Block Island mug.  It's empty now, though.

People have varying tastes in such items, though.  But I guess with "a
nice selection," the recipient could imbibe the ones she liked and serve
the others to guests.

For a serious suggestion (which I take the above to be, I might add), if
you know this person well (as in her reading tastes), what about a book
of some kind?  Or a magazine subscription?

Books would be good and she could exchange. How about a very nice pen or
some writing paper? Magazine subscription idea sucks.

The only advantage of a goft fruitcake is that you then have a gift to
give someone the ff. year. You do not eat them, of course - you just
give them to someone else.

As I think I've said before, I have found fruitcakes a huge success at
my xmas parties through the years.  That's after I've soaked them in
bourbon for a week or so, of course -- as in totally saturate a towel
with bourbon and wrap it around the fruitcake and put something like
aluminum foil outside that and stick it in the refrigerator for a good
many days.  To serve it, I cut it into smallish pieces.  And every bit
of it is usually scarfed up.  (If the fruitcake is large, you should cut
it into smaller segments before the bourbon-soaking, in order to make
sure all of it is able to suck in the essence d'bourbon well.)

Nevertheless, I am still aware of the joke nature of fruitcake-giving
and was not making that as a serious suggestion to Tushar.

Does this mean you've abandoned your Block Island one?  Or have you

Why?  It would mean you'd need to know the recipient well, of course, to
know which ones she already gets, which ones she would like to get,
whether she wants any at all.  And a possible problem with something
like a <start-up> magazine is that it might fold before the subscription
is up.  They sometimes do.  I was looking at the magazine rack at Wmart
a week or so ago and noticed a very slick, expensive new wine magazine
-- something about wines "in America" -- as in not just beginner's type
info but <in-depth> stuff.  It struck me as a possible gift for my
RRB&SIL, who are wine snobs.  But this being its premiere issue, I
wasn't sure that that would be a good idea.

Thanks. What features do you think are most important?

Are you going to make me go to a <store> the day after Thanksgiving? It

Everyone is awake!  Some politicians referred to the coasts as the bread of
a sandwich  but the meat is in the middle.  I think he was talking about
abortion but I turned him off instead of listening.

Was this a national Wmart ad?  Wmarts don't have the same prices in
different places or even exactly the same merchandise.  If you're
willing to drive to Wmart in Columbus, for example, you can buy the
exact same item for a little bit less than you can buy it at the Sville
Wmart.  And it's even less than that if you go to a Wmart in a bigger
city.  But there could be nationally promoted specials, I assume.

I plan to go to Wmart today and will report on my findings.  I'll
probably do it mid-morning, going first to the p.o. and making use of
the campus dumpster behind it since I can't figure out what the garbage
schedule is (yesterday was my regular day, but I didn't see anything in
the newspaper about whether yesterday's people would be on today's route
and I don't see any garbage out in my neighborhood -- so I'm going to
assume there's no pick-up until Monday).

That's why I said one would need to know the recipient well.  Perhaps
she doesn't do things like Words-L and therefore has extra time for
reading magazines.  I was a much more thorough magazine-reader in the
olden days, pre-Words-L.  I did read part of last week's Time late
yesterday and was happy to hear that Gore has come out publically in
favor of a health plan like Canada's.  It won't happen.  But I'm glad to
see the Democratic Party becoming more of a party I can totally identify
with instead of partially identifying with.  And that reminds me of some
good local (state) news.  Our Lt Gov, she of the bumper stickers I'm
sure I've mentioned saying "Me And My Truck Are For Amy Tuck," is
finally officially changing parties.  Instead of being a Republican
calling herself a Democrat, she's going to run in the future as a
Republican.  I am happy since I hate voting for people running against
Democrats but had decided long ago that I would not vote for her again.

Does the Gulf Coast count, or does it have to be the big coasts?  Iow,
if I move to Bay St. Louis, will I become part of the bread instead of
being meat?

Oh.  I don't assume that everything is aimed at me, but I did think that
since you were replying to my mug posting, you were asking me about

This reminds me.  When my friends lost a mother
this week, there was conversation at the funeral
about how they would no longer be a part of the
sandwich generation.

There are 2 APEX DVDs at Walmart:

Apex DVD/CD/MP3 Player
AD1500
$69.88

and

Apex DVD/CD/MP3 {P:ayer
AD-1110W
$55.87

But I just decided not to buy one here. I will have to pay sales tax
(9.25%). I will be in KY in late December - after Christmas - and I think
I will get a better deal there at Wal-Mart (after-Xmas sales). The sales
tax there is only 6.x%. I want to stop at WM anyway then to buy gorcerise
(no sales tax on food in KY vs. 8.25% in TN).

Do you have enough food to last until then?

Also, the prices there may be lower, even without the after-xmas sales.
I would think they'd be fairly low in Knoxville, though.  The Wmart
employee I talked to about the varying prices, a person who seemed very
sharp and knowledgeable, said that the main difference was local
competition.  This was when I was buying a camera in Wmart in Columbus
some number of years ago.  I had looked at the camera in Sville Wmart,
considered buying it, but not done so that day.  A few days later I
happened to be in Columbus for other reasons and suddenly decided to go
on and buy that camera.  So I went to Columbus Wmart and found the same
camera.  I asked this employee why it was $10 cheaper in Columbus than
in Starkville, and she told me that Wmarts vary greatly -- that they
follow marketing principles and that the main difference between
Columbus and Starkville was that Wmart in Starkville had no competition
and thus could charge more -- that Columbus had a Kmart also (doesn't
anymore -- it died).  Later I noticed that the prices were still lower
in Huntsville, which has lots of stores of that type.  I doubt that the
decreases keep going with larger populations -- as in Jackson cheaper
than Hville since it's bigger and Memphis being cheaper than Jackson,
etc. etc.  I would guess that once you're at the size (or the number of
similar stores) of a town like Hville, you've got enough stores to
follow the same general pricing as really big cities.

No, I've released Bonniemae from the kill file.  But I could've sworn
you threw in that duck question in the posting that was answering my
question about your BI mug.

You seem to be very confused today.  Anyhow, dinner went well. The goose
cooked a bit quicker than I had predicted, so it had to "rest" for about an
hour before finishing, but it was very good.  In fact, Bryan and Pamela
stood by the cutting board, snapping up small bits of meat and skin as I
hewed away.  (They also brought the makings for great cosmopolitans---with
pomegranate syrup).  So we ate goose, sweet potato fingers, brussels
sprouts with pine nuts and cranberries, red cabbage, and Bonnie's sourdough
rolls.  We finished up with the two pies (apple, pumpkin) that Bonnie made.

I hope that Larry is feeling better.

You're right.  My bad.  I was thinking about Bonnie because it is her turn

He went back to bed.

Our free range turkey did not get done at the predicted time so we had to
drink more wine while it cooked  but everything was very good.

I'm easily confused these days.

Well, it was on the Macy's Parade program. I presume that it was
national. I think the sale was today only or perhaps also tomorrow, but
limited somehow.

I don't know. I am not such an analytical shopper and require nothing
special of the player. I want it hooked up. I insert a disc. I hit Play.
It plays. That's good enough for me. I'm not into director's cuts and
all that other stuff.

No, I was doing my Tai Chi and my weights.  I'm back now and put my Z on

That was a national Wmart ad that Alyce saw.  And I bet Bethany's Wmart
has $48 dvd-players also but that they take *major* detective work and
luck to uncover.

I naturally went first to the part of Wmart that sells dvd-players and
looked at every one.  Two were on sale, the cheapest (of all the
dvd-players there) being just under $100 -- something like $99.95.  A
knowledgeable-seeming man (customer) was also looking at them, saying
that he had heard there were supposed to be some good sales but that he
didn't see them -- that those prices were the same they always were,
even the two supposedly on sale.  So he and I asked a scowl-faced clerk
whether there were any more dvd-players -- any better deals than the
ones on that shelf.  She scowlingly shook her head.  He left for other
parts of Wmart (I wish I could have found him again later), and I left
to go by the dogfood section before leaving.  As I was approaching the
dogfood, I overheard some women asking a friendly clerk whether you had
to pay by 11:00 if you wanted something like one of those dvd players on
sale.  (I gather there was some kind of before-11:00 sale going on.)  I
halted when I heard their question and said, "What dvd players on
sale?"  (I didn't interrupt them.  The friendly clerk was on his way to
inquire of somebody to find out the answer to their question.)  They
said that there was a pile of $48 dvd players on the floor between
women's clothes and the food.

I headed over there but saw nothing resembling dvd player.  Inquired of
a clothes clerk, who said she thought they were somewhere in food.
Inquired of a food clerk, who said she thought they were down at the end
of the aisle near the beer.  Still no luck.  So I headed back somewhere
like into the diapers and asked somebody there, who said she thought
they might have been moved back to electronics.  Went back to
electronics and couldn't find them or anybody to ask.  Finally found my
way to the electronics cashier kiosk and asked there if there were any
$48 dvd-players anywhere.  She didn't know, but she asked somebody else
who said yes -- that if I headed down past the pillows in a nearby
aisle, I'd find them.  Sure enough, I did!  No sign, no mention anywhere
of price, but I knew this must be the place -- they were Apex, and they
were piled on the floor.  I took one back to the cashier kiosk and said
I wanted it if it really was $48.  She scanned it, and it was.  So
thanks to the luck of overhearing that conversation and the persistence
of my search, I now own a dvd player.  I will try hooking it up sometime
soon and will perhaps go out and rent a dvd to watch tonight.

Perhaps that's what makes an economy strong? 25-year trends in the
following factors were considered, with double weight given to the
last 10 years:

    Per Capita Personal Income
    Earnings - All Workers
    Employment - All Workers
    Annual Earnings Per Worker
    Wage & Salaried Workers - Earnings
    Wage & Salaried Workers - Employment
    Wage & Salaried Workers - Annual Earnings Per Worker
    Nonfarm Proprietors - Earnings
    Nonfarm Proprietors - Number of [huh?]
    Nonfarm Proprietors - Annual Earnings Per Worker
    Retail Trade - Earnings
    Retail Trade - Employment
    Retail Trade - Annual Earnings Per Worker
    Construction - Earnings
    Construction - Employment
    Construction - Annual Earnings Per Worker
    Medical Transfers to the Poor (Medicaid)
    Income Maintenance (Welfare)

Perhaps what you lose in employment you gain in per capita and total
earnings. BTW I heard from somebody living there that Raleigh-Durham
is a mess too.

Of what? Yes, it's probably in the top ten of a couple of lists,
maybe. (Probably the homicide list too--which is far more objective
than any aconomy or standard of living crap ...)

I may have to get a new tv set.  I just looked at the dvd manual and it
says that if you connect it to a tv/vcr combo, the picture will be
distorted.  Mine is a tv/vcr combo.

I was going to go on and connect it and live with a distorted picture
for a while, but I can't connect it.  For one thing it has three cords,
and my tv set has only two holes.  My tv set has one hole that says
"video" and one that says "audio."  The dvd book says to put the yellow
plug into video and the two other cords into two audios.  That didn't
really worry me much since I figured I could plug in just one of the
audio ones and live with half the sound or whatever, but guess what --
the plugs don't fit at all.  Do they make plug adapters?

Austin-San Marcos was #24 in 1997 and #4 in 1998. A fantastic
performance, one would think, against a method which takes 25-year
averages. The site, however, explains that "a variance of 10-20
places from one year to the next [for a given metropolitan area]
is not statistically significant unless the change is repeated
yearly". In that case, it is strange that a single year's top
10 list should be presented as a press release. Are eye-catching
ads like this the best thing for a serious economics research
firm?

Here is how the ranking is done:

"The average deviation from previous year (DEV) and the average
annual increase (AAI) were calculated for each category for each
time period. The DEV was subtracted from the AAI to create a strength
factor for each category. Each category was adjusted to give each
equal wait. The data for both the 15-year and 10-year terms were
totaled for each of the categories."

I am just quoting. You know. I can't figure out how each category
was adjusted to give each equal "wait". But the others are easy
to explain: "AAI" is the percentage increase over the previous
year, averaged over all years, and DEV is average fluctuation
of this number. For some reason the latter was subtracted, and
for some other reason (after adjustments) the numbers were
totalled across categories.

A high rank is "typically a result of a diversified economic
base". That's not what is studied, though. It's the numbers
which are studied.

That's weird.  I can't imagine what kind of audio and video sockets your TV
has if they're not RCA phono plugs like your DVD player.

I was going to suggest an RF modulator, that turns the 3-cord audio/video
output from your DVD player into composite video "antenna" signal, which
you should be able to plug into your TV.

Here's one: 15-1214 at radioshack.com.  This is a useful thing to look at
anyway, because we can talk about sockets.  If you look at the picture of
the back, you'll see where to plug in the DVD on the right side.  The
antenna signal "F" connectors are on the left -- does one of your TV
sockets look like that?  And the ones labelled audio and video don't look
like the right-hand ones?

This, BTW, is an effing Macrovision copy protection "feature" which
interferes with legitimate use.  We mostly buy DVDs instead of renting
them, so it's not like I'm going to tape them -- but I still had to buy a
separate RF modulator to connect the DVD player to our TV with no A/V
inputs, even though the VCR would have done a better, more integrated job.

And now it's much more convenient and higher-fidelity to just copy the DVDs
with your computer, anyway...

    Nope.  Same thing for "No Island In The Sky".  Other than they both
came from books by Ernest K. Gann I cannot for the life of me think

I hate this portfolio business *so bad*.  I want to do
something besides spewing endless Ed Skool crap today.
Whine whine whine.  I'm feeling so burned out.

My honey went down to the Mercedes dealer today to test
drive the new C-Class just so I could have the $75 gift card
for Barnes & Noble.  I love it when he makes such sacrifices
on my behalf :).

Yes, type 2, diagnosed last January. I'm maintaining tight control over my

An unforseen problem. And this is not really a time when one wants to
buy a new TV because we soon will have to throw them all away anyway.
Perhaps you can sell the DVD to Bethany or someone. Or return it. Too
bad.

I think your TV does not want to be DVD compatible. (I use only one
sound connector.)

        I'm not sure why I would be sick of spewing Ed Skool speak if
I was working on an investment portfolio... in any case, I
leave all that money crap to my husband to manage.  I don't
know or care what our investments are.


        It's my portfolio for the certification program.

It's a pure-D pain in the ass, but required for
recommendation to the state for my license.

I can't tell.  I'm also hesitant about spending money on an arrangement
that might not work anyway.  I'm not sure exactly how distorted a
distorted picture is going to be (because of my having a built-in vcr).

Here are pictures I just took of my tv:

But I take it that this has nothing to do with the features of a
particular dvd player.  It has to do with dvd players in general, iiuc
(which I may not).

I've been meaning to mention:
Our governor (Pataki) is getting a lot of press for getting some hi-tech
company in Austin (which they say was responsible for making Austin a
hi-tech center) to open a branch in Albany. Its name sounds something
like Sematec--I have not seen it in print, only have heard it on the
news. Last week a group of Albany politicians went to Austin to learn
how to make Albany succeed as Austin did, just because of this one
company opening a place here. It is to laugh, I think.

Aha!  This goes back to something I asked about a while back and nobody
claimed to remember having come up before.  I had said a while back that
I was interested in getting a larger-screened tv but that somebody here
(I accused JMW, but he said no) had said that people should wait on
buying new tvs since they were about to all change to
[somethingorother].  I had thought it had something to do with dvd's.
So what does it mean?  What's about to change?

I'll just save it until I get a tv set that will accommodate it.

I can't imagine Sharp being anything but standard.

Are you sure there is actually a size difference? RCA plugs and jacks
fit together snugly. Did you exert reasonable effort to get them
together? Your DVD player likely has an S video output, and that may
account for one of the cables. The television doesn't appear to have
a matching input for it.

Go to Bath and Body and let the clerk help you.
They've got all kinds of good bath products.

Here's a product of theirs that I've bought for
gifts and bought for myself:  Stress Relief
Linen Spray.  I love it in Eucalyptus/Spearmint.
You spray your sheets with it and go to sleep
divinely.  Can also get some matching Stress
Relief products.  I just went to get my bottle
and check the scent, so I sprayed it here in
my computer area . . and man, I feel so relieved
of stress that I think I'll go back to the mall
again to buy some of the things I almost bought
but hung back because I couldn't decide.

You do understand. It has nothing to do with features at all. It has to
do only with your combo TV/VCR which is somewhat out of the ordinary,
although I have one. But the thing about combos is--on mine, the VCR
works, but there is no picture any more. anymore(?)

A wise move. I'll let JMW or Pete explain the new TV situation in (I

Of course. But they are talking it up on the news as if Sematech is a
magic thing that automatically will make Albany blossom. When the NY
politicians went to Austin, they were shown the bat place. Maybe Albany
should get one of those, too, to ensure success.

I don't think I've said it in so many words on-list, no.

It can be frustrating at times...but I'm feeling better than I've felt in a
long time, now that I'm eating healthier and exercising more and just in
general taking better care of myself. The kick in the butt worked, as it
were.

I don't think he did tell us on list.  But some of us knew at
SnowBash.   He's been very good about eating and stuff.  He's lost a fair

Do you have me kill-filed?   Yes, Albany has a river.  It has the mighty
Hudson River flowing through it.  The Hudson is still tidal in
Albany.  Clyde officiated at a rowing regatta there once.  They shut down
the whole river to boat traffic and strung seven lanes of buoys, one of
which was high and dry on the tidal mud flats part of the day.

In fact, Albany has bridges over the Hudson very much like Austin's bat
(Congress Street?) bridge.  I don't know how you would entice the bats to
occupy the bridge, though.

        I miss tidal mud flats and marshes.  I spent part of my
childhood in a house that was built at the edge of a marsh
for the Fore River.  I'd have a heart attack if Ana played
out on the marshes and on the river like I did when I was
even younger than she is now.

I got the tv in '96, if that makes a difference.

No, I exerted very little effort -- I thought that might be <bad>.
Lemme go try it again.
...
YES!!  They do fit!  I just wasn't pushing hard enough.

So now the big question is whether to hook it up and go bother to rent a
dvd.  I guess I should.  Hmm.  Remember that Japanese movie I bought
that I watched part of on my computer?  It was something like dvd, but I
don't think it was really dvd.  Wonder if it would work.

Thank you, Pete and mem!  Re the distortion problem, I wonder if there's
some way I could disable the tv set's built-in vcr.  I don't have to
have it <abled>.  It seemed like a good idea when I got it, but I
quickly discovered the big problem with it -- that you couldn't tape one
channel while watching another.  So that's why I got the other vcr.
It's the one I normally use to tape things and could easily use all the
time for viewing also.

The main reason I got the combo was that it happened to be on the tv set
I was looking at that day.  My mother's tv set is also a combo, though
she never uses the vcr anymore.  I thought they were pretty common.

I bet Alyce is feeling all warm and fuzzy thinking about the business

Yes.  I was just about to report that.  The dvd-player is now connected
to the tv, and I dug out this Japanese movie and saw that it's a vcd.
Am I correct in assuming it won't work on a dvd-player?

Another question:  Is about half an inch enough ventilation space at the
top of my DirecTV box?  I put the dvd-player on top of the vcr and the
DirecTV box at the top of the stack since it's the only one that
appeared to have vents on its top.  But that crams it up very, very
close to the top of the cabinet -- to the piece of wood the tv set sits
on.

Didn't work.  The dvd player just sat there doing nothing and then
ejected it.  I think I'll wait till tomorrow to rent a dvd movie.  I was
just looking at the tv guide and remembered that there's free HBO and
Cinemax this weekend.

Have any of you seen a dog movie called "Best in Show"?  I might watch
it.  In fact, I might tape it to take for my mother to watch.

Some DVD players play VCDs; most here in the states don't.

Unlikely.  You'll probably need the RF modulator.

This is something you won't do, but for the sake of completeness I thought
I'd include a pointer to an Apex 500 mods page:
<http://www.nerd-out.com/darrenk/>.  Mods include things like making it
region-free or disabling Macrovision.  There are also video
enhancer/stabilizers that go between the DVD player and the VCR that can
fix the signal.

It appears also that not all discs are Macrovision'ed any more, either.

I tried it again after looking in the book to make sure what the three
buttons on the dvd-player did.  I saw why it was ejected while ago.  I
hit the eject button.  But it won't play.  Nothing happens at all.

They fit, as it turned out.  But I don't see that cables are related to
the <features> anyway.

Ahh -- so it will solve the distortion problem?

I might.  I do follow urls if I have a particular reason to and time
to.  I've discovered that that dog movie comes on at 6 p.m., btw.
That's an inconvenient time.  I'm used to movies starting at 7.  I guess
I could go on and tape it to watch some other time and read magazines
tonight.  I've accomplished far, far less so far this holiday weekend
than I had intended to.  I did finish the paper-grading, though.

I am probably more ignorant about electronics than you are. I remember
alyce said that she didn't care about features, she just wanted to play
disks. But when you buy one, you have to chose one rather than another -
and they usually have different features - so you eed to know something,
it seems to me.

Is your coaxial or the other thing? (Is coaxial the right term?)

>Ahh -- so it will solve the distortion problem?

Distortion "feature."  DVD publishers consider the copy protection an
enhancement, not a degradation.

But yes, it will bypass the problem.  The DVD player's A/V out goes to the
RF modulator, as does the external VCR's video out.  Then the video out
from the modulator goes to the TV's video in, on the back.

Then you can use the modulator to switch between the DVD A/V and the
external VCR's video.  The process will introduce a little fuzziness in the
DVD output as it's converted from A/V to composite video, but as noted
previously the publishers thought this was the best thing for you.

I'm so glad we have a 1984 POTUS.  Makes doublethink so much easier!

(Really, I'm not so bitter about the situation day-to-day.  It just makes
for a good rant, and we really *do* live with a degraded TV picture every
day because of it.)

It's a liberal arts <thing>. Actually, it's a McClain thing--he
probably was instrumental in implementing this as a state requirement
for Rita. (He was president of NMSU for many years before he became
Missouri's education czar (under Ashcroft), and now I don't know what,
if anything, he does.

By the time I get back from watching the Macy's Christmas Tree lighting at
Union Square, I'll be even further (farther) behind. Further, right?

Already caught Bing crooning on the radio today. Glad I'm not the only one
caught up in the spirit :)

I'm totally ignorant of electronics.  Yes -- Alyce said that she didn't
care about features, just wanted to play disks.  Me too.  I don't care
that mine will show slide shows of digital pictures or whatever.  If I
were shopping among expensive ones, I would get into <features>, but in
this case I simply bought the cheapest one since I don't care about its
bells and whistles.

Aren't all dvd players coaxial?  I thought that was a requirement for
digital stuff.  But then, as I said, I am totally ignorant of
electronics.

The free HBO is indeed working this weekend, btw.  But that movie I
thought started at 6:00 actually started at 6:15.  So there I was
working like a crazy person at 5:59 to stuff in the tape, check the
vcr's clock, and set the timer to start one minute   later, when I then
looked at the tv to see what the movie looked like and realized I was
racing for no reason -- that it didn't start for another sixteen
minutes.  (Yes, I know it's kind of dumb to set the timer for something
starting in one minute if you're not leaving -- you're going to be home
when it ends.  But I always use the timer for taping.  It must seems
somehow more <efficient>.  I don't have to remember to stop it.)

The techies can probably give you the <deep structure> of the

One of those bridges, the one for I-787 I think, really twinges my vertigo

Yeah, I think those towers are quite hideous too. Blick.

Why does the external vcr have to be involved at all?  Can't it just
keep on doing its thing the way it is now?  It is not involved between
the tv set and the dvd player as they're now stuck together (though it
is very much involved in my dish feed).  Wouldn't the RF modulator go
between the tv and dvd-player, leaving the external vcr out of the
picture?

Except that my tv's video-in is on the front, not the back.

None of the bridges here trigger my vertigo. Mostly, I don't know even
know when I'm going over the bridge. This is a vast improvement over
the BA.

Some of the overpasses are twingy, but nothing too bad.

You're not saying that the Tappan Zee twinges your vertigo, are you?  I
have a moderate bridge phobia, related to angles/heights -- as in I
don't mind bridges at all if they're flat -- it's the ones that go way
up and then way down that I don't like.  I don't remember anything at
all bothersome about the Tappan Zee.  For bridge-vertigo, try that
bridge in Sarasota (? -- somewhere in that vicinity) that goes straight
up and then straight down.

That must be what I toured back in the early 90's. It was really opulent and
gorgeous, and reminded me of the Old Executive Office Building in
Washington, D.C.

On that same trip, my friends and I went to the uh, Rockefeller Plaza is it?
The one where the Egg theater is. I did like the view from the plaza
overlooking the river.

I was just looking at the new Early Winters catalog.  Tushar could get a
really pretty winter hat for $30 or
under.  http://www.earlywinters.com/   The alpaca wool hat is especially nice.

Yes, yes I am. I have to be in the innermost lane when driving across it.
It's not the height so much as the fear of falling off that gets me.

I don't know the Sarasota bridge, but the bridges leading to Newport, R.I.
are pretty horrible.

You ought to see the atrocity that the MSU alums have recently built as
a gathering place on campus.  Their old place will continue to serve as
an on-campus motel with a few meeting rooms, but this new one is to be
their <major palace>.  It is soooo unbelievably ugly.  I doubt that
there's a picture of it online yet, so I can't show it to you.  Maybe
I'll take one and put it online.  I can't even begin to describe the
ugly <modernity> of the place.  (Our campus is not one of these
all-old-and-beautiful-building campuses.  We've got a hodgepodge.  But
this alumni place does push things to a grating extreme.)

I would like to know what features there are other than having an m3p

I went shopping today and I'm a lousy shopper.
Just not in the spirit of things, I didn't know that
you are supposed to get up at the crack of dawn
and wait outside someone's door for them to open.
I went at 10:30, when I guess all the really good
specials were over.  Nevertheless, there were
mark-downs and incentives, and I did buy a 
few things.  I will list a few, in case it gives anyone
an idea, but I must say that Xmas shopping never
gets better.  It is an ***ache.

I found the new measuring cups.  They are slanted
and you look INSIDE to read the measurement, not
holding the cup up to the light and squinting to see
1 2/3 cups on the outside.  They were $9.50, and they
are plastic!! But they were marked down to $5 something,
in a local department store. Bargain?  You be the judge.

I bought a light sage green microfiber throw with
down filling for Dr. Grandaughter when she gets home
from her day with the elderly (geriatrics) and wants to
cuddle on the couch, which I've heard that she loves.
$24.95.

I found an old picture of one of my kids at 2, one I
think he has never seen, and I went to Walgreen's and
had it enlarged and I framed it this afternoon. Total
of about $6-8.

For all the young men I bought a measuring tape which
not only pulls out and measures things, but you talk into
it and record the measurements so you won't forget them.
Something like $12 ea.at a discount store.

I bought little girls lovely books to record things in, like
their friend's addresses and their favorite records, etc.,
and shirts with angels on them, and I bought little boys
hand-held games.

My daughter, who says she doesn't need a sewing machine,
is going to get one of those awful things they advertise on
TV, a hand-held stitcher which you can order for . . what
else?. . $19.95.  But I found it at Walgreens for $12.95.
She is also going to get a hand-stitched and quilted Xmas
table runner, which I will give to her early as she is 
entertaining this year.  Red, green and gold, on a black
background, with a black border and silver tassels.

My bachelor son is going to get a small George
Foreman grill, which I got today for $16 (usually
$40.00).

And for Gene a lovely Hawaiian shirt with a small Nebraska
logo on it.  Sound weird?  It's really quite nice, high
quality.  Also a couple of Ralph Lauren sweaters, on sale.

How'd I do?  They may  get more, of course, if they
behave, but this is for starters.

         - D. M.



There's more, but that's a sample of my day, and
there's a bit more to do.

                - D. M.

Liberal arts colleges often require a portfolio. I ran into this when
I was interviewing for jobs.

You'd be lost. Macy's is at Herald Square/34th Street. Union Square is

Speaking of senior moments. One of the people I had Thanksgiving with
is in her upper 80's and quite <with-it> and spry. Though she has a
horrible hump. She's Italian-American, from NYC, and we had some good
food conversations.

Weird.  I guess maybe it's a terminology thing, though.  T&P
applications might very well be called portfolios.  It's just that they
aren't called that in my experience (which experience does extend
farther than here, in case somebody thinks I'm talking about my own
little cocoon -- I do lots of evaluations for T&P applications at other
universities, and nobody has yet used the term "portfolio" in the
discussion of the process).

You are a noble-spirited friend.  We must wait and see how my situation
turns out before declaring joy, of course.  But even if it doesn't turn
out well, I have found today interesting re increased knowledge of the
war on thieves and how it affects innocent people.

Despite the horrendous indentation scheme of this post, it does

Remind me to do the Tappan Zee route when going to Acadiafest.  I will
study its ambience in relation to my moderate bridge thing.  Don't ever
go over the bridge between Greenville, MS, and Wherever, AR.  I did that
on a whim one time and was scared that I might have to spend the rest of
my life in Arkansas -- or take a very long route home.  I can't remember
now what bothered me so much about that bridge, but I do remember that
it was serious phobia time.

Twice lately I have been asked if I have one of these. Do I need one?
Where is carbon monoxide to come from? The furnace? Does a  detector
attach to the furnace? Is it like a smoke detector? I glanced at Google
but I see plug in/hardwire and I don't know what I'd hard-wire it to.

        Yes, you need one.

        We have one that plugs into an outlet in the basement near
the furnace.

I didn't go to your site, but we have one of these
things.  It just hangs on the wall, like a smoke
detector does.  No big deal.

Oh yes.  In my times of participating in the day-after-Tgiving shopping
in Hville, I sometimes lost out on the bargains by getting there between
6:30 and 7:00.  When I went earlier, I saw that indeed the lines are
long at 6:00, but the advantage is that you can find a parking place in
malls, which isn't likely much after 6:30.

Those day-after-Tgiving bargains are for real in most cases.  I've gone
back to some of the same stores on the Saturday after Tgiving and found
the prices back up.  Even the afternoon of the Friday means higher
prices.  And in some cases even after 8 a.m. does -- or even after 6:10
in the cases of things like the prizes in the McRae's crackerjacks --
the crackerjacks are gone ten minutes after the opening of the doors.

You did great.  And I enjoyed reading about it.  I miss Nancy Harwood.
I would love to hear her reply to your early-shopping (way, way early
for Nancy) story.  I've enjoyed her tales of xmas shopping at 10 p.m. on
Dec. 24.

I just looked at it again and see what you mean.  I can't wait to offer
this view to my lunch friends.  (I don't think I'll tell it to black
alums who contributed to the building of the atrocity, however.
Actually, I think the basic building was funded by the person it's named
for, and I think he's white.  But other alums have contributed to its

When I looked again, I realized that that picture is the architect's
drawing, before the fact.  But the building does indeed look like that,
with its KKK hood.  (I'd thought of it as a steeple until now.)  One
funny thing about that picture is that to the right of the building
there appears to be a mountain.  We have no mountains.  How that got
into the picture I'm not sure.

Trust Norton.  It is better than McAfee, for reasons I can't tell you
since I don't know them.  I just <know it>.

I think my Norton might have just finished.  Suddenly the computer is
quieter.

Bethany, excuse me, but I think you and I are old broads; our mothers are
*ancient* broads.

This is a non sequitor sort of except in a fuzzy way:

I spent the last week with Allan's family and extended family.  There
we have one new mother, 40 years old; and one great grandmother, aged 42
years.

(The two don't like each other so we didn't see them both in the same

I was reading an old (Septemberish) profile of Harold Bloom in
the NYer, and it told of his encounter with a possibly mad
Borgesian psychoanalyst from Majorca.  In person this man was
"lurking and shifty-eyed, with a soul patch and a mustache."

What the devil is a "soul patch"?

I looked into getting one when I moved into my house, because of the
gas fireplace.

I have one.  Or at least I think that's what it is.  I bought it in
Wmart on a whim one day six or eight months ago.  I don't know where
carbon monoxide is likely to come from -- maybe I bought it after an
acquaintance told me that I was going to die in my sleep because of
having these old-fashioned open-flame gas heaters -- can't remember for
sure now.  Anyway, I bought it on a whim.  It was cheap.  And it's not
plugged into or attached to anything.  It's a little white box that is
sitting on the top of my dresser.  Totally free-standing.

The description says that it plugs into an outlet.  And the shape of the
picture fits with that description.  I should go take a picture of mine
to show what it looks like.  Maybe later.

Hi Brad.  Happy Thanksgiving.  Remember the time Clyde and I stopped in
Lexington on our way home from Ohio and had a beer with you and your
sister?  That was fun.  Nice brew pub.

I actually know the answer to your question.  It's a little tuft of beard
left unshaven just below the lower lip but before the chin.

I am trying to buy a simple DVD for Doug. I went to Best Buy, found it,
but cannot find a button to push to be able to order it.

Went to video.com where I was told they can't ship out of the country to
me.

Went to Amazon, found it, and though I am clicking the little free
shipping truck, as well as Order Now, nothing happens.

Does no one want to sell me anything? I don't get it.

It took her a long time. She says...


Well, let's just say that early this morning I told myself
I'd play "one game" -- not knowing that it would pretty much take the
rest of the day on and off (there WERE book orders to package and
ship).  Will be up most of the night making up the work, but I haven't
felt this brain-numb in ages and it actually feels very ... zen.  :)

Well, I know at least one person with a reel-to-reel tape player,
maybe 2. If you know what you want done with your tapes, then I can
see if one or the other of 'em would do it. Or, I can ask the one who
just acquired her reel-to-reel if they have any more and how much they
are.

This elderly woman I met last night has relatives in Hinsdale; that's
where she's going for Christmas. I can't remember if it's a brother or
a son.

And that indicates that you do know what you're doing in the classroom

Don't no nuthing bout smoke detectors.  This thing is just something I
stumbled upon in Wmart one day and bought on a whim.  I see from the
little light that says "battery" that it apparently has batteries.  I
guess they came in it since I have no memory of inserting them.  But
it's alive.  It squawked when I hit the test button.

Who has claimed that Pilates would accomplish such a thing?! It can
help prevent the hump in the first place, but once your hump is so
severe, I don't think there's anything you can do.

You sound too much like me, age thirties thereabout.  Get a grip.

And here I am alone in the house.  I get to dance again.

Remember Jules Fieffer and the Dance to Spring, etc.?  (I query my

This is the third or fourth posting now from people who seemed to be
taking Rita seriously in her statement that she was thinking about
quitting her job Monday.  I don't doubt that she's tired and annoyed at
the stupid portfolio right now and that she is having on one level (the
least important one) the thought of not knowing what she's doing.  But
am I really that mutant in not thinking that that comment about quitting
her job was a <real thought>??

I also got to hear the first half of Ligniere's story about importing
his VW bus to Caracas when he moved there.

But I forgot to ask why it was illegal to import a color TV.

Peel the sweet potatoes, cut into long thin sections, about 0.5 to 0.75
inches thick and 3 or so inches long. Place in an oiled or buttered pan,
drizzle with oil and salt, dot with butter if you wish, bake at about 350 F
until they begin to show spots of caramelization (about 45 minutes).

Trim the sprouts, make a cross in the bottom of the stem, simmer for 10
minutes.  Place in ice water to refresh.  When ready to serve dinner, slice
sprouts in half, saute (actually, sweat) finely chopped garlic in olive
oil, add sprouts cut side down, sprinkle with pine nuts and re-hydrated
dried cranberries, cover and cook for 5 minutes or so, shake gently (but do
not stir) once or twice.

I'm glad I'm reading through my own postings, which I sometimes don't
do.  This one reminds me of the context of Rita's comment.  I remembered
that I hadn't taken it seriously, but now I remember why.  The context
was Tushar's chastisement for her having written Klu for Ku!

Btw, that building that looks white in the picture is in fact gray.
That makes the steeple look less like a KKK cap.

If you forget to ask, maybe I'll remember to ask some good friends who
live part time in Starkville and part time in Caracas.  They lived
mainly in Caracas for many years but now live mainly in Starkville,
though three of their four grown children live in Caracas.  The male
half of this couple is a native of Caracas, the female half a native of
Starkville.

Yum! All the stores around here sell pomegranate juice, but I haven't
seen syrup.

I've been sauteeing sweet potatoes, and I think that's my new favorite
way. This sounds good, but just fussier than I would normally be.

I surely cannot produce cites.  Our list archives aren't that far back.
I don't remember that you specifically talked about jerking off humps,
but I do remember that you talked about <lengthenings> -- as in
stretching oneself out.  That suggests to me smoothing of humps.

Another person at dinner was married to the guy who owns a shoe store
that I know very well. (Hm. It's an independent shoe store; they have
gone the way of independent book stores.) They sell "the best of

supposed to be a "lean and fast browser that doesn't skimp on

I'm with Natalie -- I like Norton much better than McAfee.  (Not that I use

Ha ha... tiredness, and probably half a cold or something?
Just like me. I feel useless and incapable of doing anything
worthwhile. And I sort of lied to someone by not mentioning
this, and I am clearly going to default on both deadlines
that I have. And I really hope I feel well tomorrow but
don't know. So... too drained to give any elderly-gentleman-
in-Ricki-Lake-audience pep talk. Look at the portfolio on
Sunday and of course it will turn out it wasn't half bad.
Well I am going to go to sleep. Sweet dreams to you...

Yes.  It is strange we have in our midst someone
who is very close to shoe stores.  In my experience
most shoe stores are merely passing acquaintances.

Weird.  I've been over it a number of times because my brother's house is
in Nyack, and I hadn't noticed anything particularly vertiginous about
it.  Remind me not to take you on the skinny, windy roads in the Peninsula
hills where *I'm* afraid of falling off. :)

Last time I drove over the Tappan Zee was this year on the way to LGA,
around 8:46 AM on the morning of September 11th.  Traffic was relatively
light.  I was listening on the radio to the memorial service being
broadcast from Ground Zero.  As I crossed the bridge during the moment of
silence, the sun broke through the clouds above the superstructure, with
glory-of-God rays.

Really??? Maybe I am a pervert, then. Actually, I have not bought
shoes there--I can't afford them since I have no income--but their ads
are in the newspaper and on TV every day, and I drive past the store
several times/week.

A couple of the radio stations here are playing Christmas music all day

Yup.

Macrovision takes advantage of a difference in the way the video signal is
handled by TVs and VCRs.  It modifies the output of the DVD so that when a
VCR receives it, it does wacky things, even though a TV receiving the same
signal wouldn't.  It's not a very sophisticated scheme, and certainly VCR
manufacturer's could design around it -- but they'd run afoul of the DVD
publishers in doing so.

Yet, DVD is going to "take over" the space of video tapes?

Looking at your snapshot, it may be the Dish box instead of the external
VCR mixed up in things, depending on how you've got it set up.  It's
probably the external VCR.

But let's back up.

The output of the modulator will plug into the cable in *back* of your TV,
which should be labelled something like "ANT/CABLE 75[omega]".  That's the
coaxial cable Bethany's thinking about, and it carries "composite
video."  It *won't* plug into the A/V connectors on the front.

Obviously, the coax that's currently going to your TV, from either the VCR
or the Dish box, will have to be unplugged for this to happen.

The good news is that the RF modulator is designed to handle this, and
allows you to plug the old composite video connection into the back of it,
along with the A/V cables from the DVD player.  Then, instead of swapping
cables to watch either DVD or VCR/Dish, you can just flip a switch on the
modulator.  Some will even switch automatically for you.

Finger-o.

Coax cable from the RF modulator to the ANT/CABLE jack carries "RF video."

"Composite video" is the yellow-plug cable from the DVD, along with the
red- and white-plug audio cables.

>Is your coaxial or the other thing? (Is coaxial the right term?)

Essentially all DVD players only come with the "other thing," composite
video.  (I found an exception to prove the rule, a Rowa DVD3610, which I
can't find for sale anywhere.  And some combo DVD/VCRs may have RF out.)

And so, if your TV has only an RF video (coaxial cable) input, you need an
RF modulator to connect the DVD player.  The DVD player cartons I've seen
say this somewhere on the outside.

Conversely, if your TV has a composite video input (and it isn't a combo
TV/VCR), you don't have to worry about it, and any DVD player will work
without the modulator.

Hi --

I'm OK, but the last month has been pretty demanding. I haven't set mail yet
because we still don't have DSL up and running in the new place, and it
takes too long to download with dialup.

Anyway. We're now about 95% settled in the loft -- the only thing left to
schlep is a dozen or so boxes of office supplies from the old office. The
move has gone as smoothly as such things can go, with one big exception: the
passenger elevator here at the loft has been out of commission for a couple
of months. We can use the Sawmill's freight elevator occasionally, but they
get very testy if you ask to use it too often. We used it for the big moving
day when we had movers, and I think we've used it two other times, but for
everything else (small items, boxes, groceries, laundry, etc.), Ben & I have
been hauling things up three flights of steep, narrow concrete stairs. I've
developed muscles in places I've never had muscles before, which is kind of
nice; unfortunately, most of them have been in spasm for most of the last
several weeks, which is not so nice. I don't see too much point in getting
my body worked on when I'm just going to screw it up again, so I'm waiting
to go to my chiropractor/massage therapist until all this is over.

Jay and I are on speaking terms, but barely. He's moved into a studio
apartment half a block from the law school. Things started to get very ugly
when I started asking him to move his stuff out of the condo -- my new
tenant (a friend of mine who's fixing the place up in exchange for reduced
rent for a few months, and may wind up buying it eventually) is moving in
this weekend. And Jay's space was horrible -- the habits that I'd simply
dismissed as "messiness" have emerged, with clearer eyes, as true hoarding
behavior: his office was basically piles of paper, medical supplies and dust
from about knee- to hip-height, with a small path leading from the door to
his desk chair.

I asked him to arrange to move it, and he refused ("too busy" and "allergic
to dust" (!)). A rapidly escalating exchange ensued. In about Round 4, I'd
just finished tapping out a very, um, brisk e-mail of about eight
paragraphs, when my finger paused over the "send" key (wish it'd do that
more often) and I thought to call my mother, whose practice of late has
included several hoarders. Her suggestion: refuse to engage, set a clear
goal, make suggestions about achieving the goal, and expect that he will, if
possible, wind up letting someone else actually clear the place out. Score
100% for Mom -- when I disengaged and set the goal, he folded... but I wound
up cleaning the whole thing out. A couple of my girlfriends spent about half
a day helping, and even with that, it took me a full 10 hours of horrible
work to empty it out. I hauled out nine Hefty Bags and several dozen boxes.
Tom & Katy have agreed to store the boxes until Jay's finals are over --
heaven only knows what he's going to do with them then.

So that part, at least, is over (with a side trip when the trash collectors
refused to pick up the bags after telling me they would -- and passersby got
into them and spread the trash all over the sidewalk so I wound up picking
it up *again*). We're speaking a couple of times a week to coordinate
details and logistics -- he's not comfortable attending the same events that
I go to, so we're splitting some of the events we used to attend together.

As for Amy, she's adjusting well. She was clearly uncomfortable and
bewildered by the loft when we first moved here -- she hates climbing the
stairs even more than I do; interestingly, she seems to know what the
elevator is for, although AFAIK she's never seen one before. But whenever we
enter the building she goes to the elevator door and looks at me
expectantly. It turns out that there's a beautiful little park with a creek
and footbridge just a block from here, so we go there once or twice a day,
and we've had plenty of visitors to keep her interested. I think she still
misses Jay, but the acute phase is over, I guess.

Businesswise, things are tough but manageable. I haven't been able to do
more than the modicum of work needed to keep things running since
mid-November, but I think this week I'll be able to do some
writing/editing/layout/etc. again. Hope so, anyway -- I'm badly behind schedule.

Not too much other news. Miles couldn't come home for Thanksgiving :(
because he just got cast in a show (a puppet version of "Great
Expectations," believe it or not) and just started rehearsals -- so it was
just Ben, our friend Derek, my friend Charmaine, and me. Dossie and her
daughter came over beforehand for appetizers, and then Charmaine and I went
with Dossie to a butch-femme social (where, Tushar, they were actually
playing Truth Or Dare when we arrived -- it was fun).

I took a bunch of pictures on moving day and will take some more this
weekend, two weeks later, so you can see how things are progressing. Barring
unforeseen circumstances, I should have the place pretty much done --
insofar as any housing ever is completely "done" -- by Christmas if not
sooner. There'll be some sort of housewarming do after that, to which, of
course, all of you are welcome.

I'll go mail again once the worst of the unpacking is over and my DSL is
working again. Meanwhile, feel free to drop me a line privately -- I miss
you all.

It's always been in my header; there was never a big secret about my real
name, but I was in the habit of using "Verdant." I quit altogether about the
middle of last year, I guess. However, Words-L is the only context in which
I don't use the Greenery URL as a .sig line.

I don't think Bonnie is correct in her statement that I used "Lady Green." I
don't think I've ever used it in a non-scene context, and I don't much like
using it even within the scene -- I have little respect for self-granted
honorifics. And if you introduce yourself as "Lady Green," it encourages
strangers to call you "mistress" or "milady," which I loathe.

Is she still married to him?  Was he not at the dinner also?  Re
independent shoe stores, one that was here for many years is about to
turn into an Irish pub.  But I thought the reason was mainly that the
family that owned the shoe store got old and then died.  Where is
Canandaigua, NY?  I should look at a map and see if maybe it's on the
route to Acadiafest.  I'd like to visit Davidson Shoes.  I wonder if the
couple I knew at Lake George still live in Canandaigua.  They taught at
a junior college there, iirc.

In getting to know this shoe store so well, did you also get to know the
owner well?  Is he nice?  And do they sell Haflingers?  I'm trying to
figure out why my previous size 37 Haflingers fit perfectly while the
ones I recently ordered were too short.  And I need to communicate with
Davidson's to find out why the replacements haven't arrived yet.  If
they don't arrive by Monday, I'll communicate.  Ditto that book I bought
on ebay, though it has nothing to do with Davidson's shoes.  It
should've gotten here by now.

I wonder how that nice shoe store in Boston is getting along.  I don't
remember its name but know how to walk up from the bus station to it.

I think it's exciting that Karen is revealing to us one by one the
identities of the guests.  How many were there overall?  Like how many
more revelations can we anticipate?  Will Lingerie be among them, or are
you going to leave him out since we already know him?  Anyway, I think
this is fun.  First the hump-backed senior citizen who did not ride in a
limo in Mexico, then the person either currently or formerly married to
the owner of the shoe store Karen is intimate with.  Who'll be next?

Hmm.  I don't consider that a close relationship at all.  I'm

Yes, the vcr is mixed up in things.  I didn't realize that this new
device we're talking about was going to be talking to the wall.  As I've
said, I know surfaces only, not depths.

Ah so.  I started to say last night that the only thing on the back of
the tv is the ANT/CABLE hole (only thing other than the power cord).
When you said "video," I was thinking that yellow front hole.

So I guess today's adventures should be (1) rent a dvd to see what the
distorted picture looks like, (2) after finding it extremely distorted,
go find an RF modulator.  Would I go to Wmart for the latter?  We also
have a Radio Shack.

Then again, I could go buy a tv set and skip having to buy the RF
modulator.  Will old tv sets be usable after the new-style tv comes
along?  I bet they will require some kind of converter box, won't they.
That would mean instead of buying this RF thing now, I'd buy a converter
box a couple of years from now.  Interesting things to ponder.  But the
problem with tv sets is that I'd like a bigger screen, yet I don't think
I'd be able to manage getting a bigger one out of a store and into my
car and then into my house.  There's a furniture store in Starkville
that has tv sets and would presumably deliver since it delivers
furniture, but it has only two or three tv sets normally, and the prices
are far higher than Wmart.  My current tv I bought at Rex's in
Columbus.  But they don't deliver, afaik.  So maybe I should hunt for
the RF modulator instead.

Interesting.  I had thought the opposite.

I thought I saw something about coaxial on my dvd-player's box.  Lemme
go look...
Yes.  The box says "coaxial digital audio output."

I think it is reputable, but I'm not sure why I think that.  I haven't
done any personal exploration of the organization.  They have a website
where you might be able to find out more.

Only because you don't understand how a Dowager's Hump is formed.  The back
bone actually breaks from osteoporosis.  It slumps and curves in on
itself.  The person can no longer stand upright with a broken back
bone.  God forbid this all happens to you one day.  Yes, there can be pain
involved in the breaking.

Thanks. A good offer. First I have to find the tapes. Ken had them with
his stuff, which he left here for me to pack. 8-} This is a formidable
task. I hope when Doug comes for Xmas that he can help me, and we may
find them.

Well to the west and well to the north of the Tappan Zee bridge.  It's in
the finger lake district of New York, if that means anything to you.

If you are asleep and a fire starts, heaven forfend, it will be too late

I've completed most of mine -- and that's way out of character for me.

What I mean is the Christmas shopping for my son.

We were in by 8 and out by 1 yesterday at Opry Mills in Nashville. 'Twas an
excellent strategy.

Now on to the rest.

The hiding will have to be far more complicated this time.

In addition, the wrapped gifts must be prepared for suitcase travel to this
year's Christmas Destination.

My friend who has been laid off for nearly 2 years worked for them,
and after hearing the stories about the way the company works, well,
'respect' is not the first word that pops into my mind.

No, they are divorced. Her daughter (who is 21 and an EMT) had to

See my later post--I've never been in the store, but I lust after

The only revelation was the story about his VW van. Oh, and how his
best friend nearly killed him in an airplane in... Somewhere in South
America. Wherever the Shah of Iran lived. And he finally revealed his

They called it pomegranate molasses, but my guess is that it is a thick
syrup---they ordered it from somewhere after getting the drink recipe from
a new restaurant that has opened in Ellsworth.

Well, the potatoes can be cut into chunks, fingers, etc.  Cooking them in
the oven is usually convenient for me.


>*Dried* cranberries! That makes sense.

I was a bit skeptical of this because dried cranberries usually are
sweetened.  However, between the re-hydration, which probably removes some
sugar, and the short cooking time which leaves the berries whole, they
don't sweeten the whole dish.

        When I had the chimney swept a couple of weeks ago, the
gentlemen inspected the house for smoke detectors, a CO
detector, and asked me about our fire escape plan.  The year
Tomoko was here we replaced all the fire detectors to put
her father (a fireman in Japan) at ease.

My gosh, Bonniemae.  You're turning into one of the major List
Literalists.  I know that people don't jerk off humps.  Twas intended as
a joke (about pilates, not about humps).

One can, however, sometimes smush ganglion cysts with a Family Bible.

Yes, it is indeed meaningful to me.  I know the Finger Lakes fairly
well, having bicycled through them, among other things.  No -- I don't
mean I rode a bicycle actually through the lakes.  Should've said
bicycled through that vicinity.

I don't think so.  But every once in a while I'm surprised to hear of a
Mississippi town I didn't know existed.

But wait.  We need to get the names with the identities.  Now that
you've added the shoe daughter, you have talked about three females.
Which ones are Tina and Alexis, and what is the name of the third one?

        Well, of course, I can't quit -- I'm under contract.  And on
Monday I'll like my job.  In the meantime, I'd like it all
to disapear.  Christmas is going to send me over the edge.
I'm already late with the girls' gifts -- they won't arrive
overseas in time.  My portfolio sucks, and I still have a
swarm of paperwork to do for the State, and I still have to
get three weeks of instruction in before Christmas, for
which I need to plan, um, tomorrow.  Well, the portfolio
can't suck too bad; everything in it has been copied by
various instructors to use as models at one time or other.

        In any case, I guess I'll go to Target.  Last time I was in a
store I started crying.  Maybe I'm over that now.

        It looked like an enormous vacuum cleaner to me, plus he
scraped the flue.  I wasn't paying much attention because I
was getting Ana ready for school at the time (I had a day
off for the State Teachers Conf., so I was in a frenzy of
M-F type appointments all day).

The same way they've always done it:  in a top hat, standing on the roof,
with long-handled brushes.  Sometimes they skip the top hat and do it from
the bottom, if there is an appropriate opening to get the brushes
into.  And sometimes they have a big shop vac to vacuum up stuff that comes
out the bottom.

I was thinking the other day that I should consult with the person in
charge of my rental house about chimney sweeping.  I didn't have it done
every year since I didn't build enough fires to make that necessary, but
I had it done from time to time -- or at least inspected to see whether
it needed to be done.  I've noticed that the current tenant has firewood
stacked up, suggesting fireplace use.

I've had smoke detectors on various occasions but have never been able
to get the batteries in right.  Finally just gave up.  Either they don't
work at all, or they squawk all the time.

I wonder whether my apartment in Japan had smoke detectors.  Probably it
did, although I have no memory of them.

My posture is the same as it has always been.  I've never been a
<straight stander> -- or sitter for that matter.  The fact that my
height is declining is evidence of bone rot, of course, but the way I
stand hasn't changed, afaik.

I've never paid close attention, but I do know that a large

Well, I'm usually on edge even before the bridge from navigating whatever
twisty road it is that leads south to the bridge. The ascent isn't too bad,
it's the long descent with miles and miles to go until reaching land that
really aggravates me.

The absolute worst place I have to drive regularly is a bridge on I-91
between exits 5 and 6 in Vermont. It spans a huge valley and I hate it in
both directions. That's a fast-as-you-can-go bridge as well, and it's
separate spans in each direction, so there isn't even the comfort of hugging
the passing lane rail.

While looking for a picture that I couldn't find, I did find this site,
which is quite nifty.

I think every company does business in spite of itself, to paraphrase
Melanie. It's kind of like not going into the kitchen of one's favorite
restaurant.

This is the kind of bridge I don't like:

http://tampabayonline.net/photos/trib/0423skyway4.jpg

That's not the one I was thinking of in the Sarasota area, though.  The
one in the above picture is only fifteen years old.  The one I remember
was far longer ago than that.  Where's Ben?  I bet he would know the one
I'm remembering.

Isn't it just grenadine syrup?

I love pomegranates, but I aven't had one in years and years. I wonder what
their glycemic index value is.

Did you get him any LeapFrog stuff?  It seems to be all the rage this year
I just found out.  Can you push learning too early just because it is
available on a computer chip?

It's wonderful to be done!

Carl got LeapFrog stuff two years ago from some of his grandparents. He
loved it and eventually wore it out/demolished it. However, this year, other
grandparents tell me that they have gotten him LeapFrog stuff (the same
exact model, actually -- a good one), which is good, because last year I got
him some extra LeapFrog books before I realized the old LeapFrog was no
longer functioning.

Yes, it does seem to be all the rage this year.

What I got him was mostly superhero and art stuff.

And, he's just had his 6th birthday.

Yeesh -- now that's confusing.  And digital-out on such an inexpensive
player, too.

Coaxial digital audio, aka S/PDIF, is a completely different thing than
what we've been discussing.  It carries the audio digital data stream from
the disc over to a home stereo amplifier, so that the digital-to-analog
conversion can be done there.  It uses RCA jacks/plugs and 75-ohm
video-style coax cable, because of the modulated data rate (100kHz -
6Mhz).  There's also an optical version, often called TOSlink, that carries
the same signal via light over plastic fiber.

I wonder how many big companies are truly respectable from the inside?

Horrible!  They both qualify to participate in

Incredible.  He is probably ready for Color-In Tattoos.  I found them in

The only way I know to find out is by going to Boston and finding that
bus station and walking up from it with the parkish thing on my left and
stores on my right.  Maybe Rita can give this area a name for us -- not
the store probably -- the part of Boston.  Why am I thinking there's a
train station in that vicinity also -- like a big, enclosed area.  Where
would I have been to have gotten off of something like a train and gone
up into this largish building?  But back to the shoe store.  I think
it's not all that far from an Episcopal church that has music right
before xmas, with long lines of people waiting to get in and some being
turned away because there's not enough space.  The shoe store is small.
It's in a row of small places of business.  I'm thinking maybe that
church is on the other side of the grassy area from this row of small
stores and things.  Anyway, if you get off a bus, you go up the hill,
then turn right, with the grassy area across the street from you.  You
keep walking, ever so slightly uphill I think, and you'll find the shoe
store on your right after a while.

Where does that bridge go?  I've been to Newport -- spent a day there

I wish I could find this model online to show it to you.  But I googled
last night for 'Apex AD-1010W' and came up empty.

So what does this mean re RFL modulators?  I think rental places open at
11:00, so I'm about to set out in search of a dvd to test the current
status of the equipment.  Will then pursue solutions.

I bet it's high. But you eat it slowly and over time, so you could
probably eat some. Not a whole one.

Walmart should have them.  The Radio Shack salesperson would give you a
little more technical support, which you probably don't need.

I think you'll also need a short (3' - 6') RF video cable to go from
modulator to TV.  RG-59 / 75 ohm video cable with one male F connector on
each end.  Push-on or screw-on is okay, either way.

Yes.

Note there's another approach besides the RF modulator, too.  You can buy a
video signal enhancer box that connects in the composite video (yellow
plug) stream, and scrubs the Macrovision signal out.  This is probably
technically illegal, while the RF modulator approach is probably not (you
can never be too sure with the DMCA).

Someone reports success with a "SIMA copy master (29.00 bucks from Circuit
city)" on an Apex AD-1110W (which is supposed to be very similar to
yours).  (This news from the same board I mentioned earlier, which has a
group for your kind of Apex:
<http://www.nerd-out.com/forum/viewforum.php?f=32>.  Someone there bought
their 1110W at Walmart in Jackson, MS. :-)

~$30 is the going price for RF modulators, BTW, which is ironic considering
your player cost $50.  Radio Shack does list a $20 modulator, which would
probably work fine -- ask the salesperson.

Yes, you'll need a new converter box in 2006.

Joanne--the lawyer and former JP who was married to Karavel Shoes

I meant to say something about Newport last night, but I think I
deleted your post in remembered horror. I've only been there once, a

I felt that my piece of PTC was respectable (I know that some
sacrifices were made to keep it that way), but it was a small piece of
a large company.

No, I would tell her to take whatever steps she is comfortable with.
They don't have to include Pilates, but they should include some
weight training, and I hope her RRB buys her a weighted vest and a
small trampoline and she uses them.

Of course, Natalie doesn't want to take steps, and she's perfectly
comfortable being the humpback of Starkville. C'est sa vie.

They did replace the most horrible old bridge just a few years ago. It was

My guess is that this stuff is different (else why would they have to order
it?) than grenadine.  However, as it already was mixed with the liquor, I
couldn't tell you how it was different.

At her age and diagnosis a weighted vest and trampoline would not be
indicated.  What I don't understand is why Natalie is willing to use daily
eye drops to halt the advance of her glaucoma but is unwilling to take
Fosomax to stop the advance of her osteoporosis.

I didn't like it.  Too flavorful.  Too strong.  I'd rather just drink

Definitely.  You can google all kinds of recipes.

Sounds as if your Thanksgiving turned out very nice. I bet it was different

My plantar fasciitis has come back. I've been too lazy and too busy to
deal with it, so I've just been wearing shoes at home, and that seems
to take care of the worst of it.

Because she told us that she had a bone density test that indicated that
she has osteoporosis.  That's a diagnosis.   That's more than "some bone
loss"  or "osteopenia."

On the positive side, after Norton's trashing of my Win98 system

Pro. :-) I don't need real-time monitoring, just a utility to call up
from the context menu or run stand-alone. Symantec thinks it knows
better and refuses to cooperate.

McAfee or Computer Associates (our AV of choice) should come out with
a utility to disinfect Nortonized PCs. I'd have paid 20 bucks for it."

Well, that's about the only way "to deal with it" anyway.  Wear shoes with
a good arch support at all times.  I even slip into my Birkies to walk from
the bed into the bathroom in the middle of the night.

You mean: a dumb tacky drink of 1999. You had a grossly fruity one
at a bar in San Francisco. It looks touristy and trixie-like.

There is a use for it, though. In the personal language of "Eamonn",
a bartender, it means a Jamieson. Knowmsain ... Like, may I have a
"cosmopolitan".

Needless to say, a "Mai Tai" means, please for the love of god one
more ^%$#ing pint while we are still young. Festive.

It *was* very nice. I haven't been able to talk to him in weeks, so I
don't know what his story is. I suspect he went to his girlfriend's

No. Fucking. Way.

I'd rather have it flare up now and then, and then have to deal with
it, than wear shoes all the time.

Now I'm curious to try that Japanese movie again.  When I stuck in the
dvd I just rented, the player acted the same way it had with the
Japanese movie:  power on but nothing happening on the tv screen.  I
replugged the cords without any change in behavior.  Then I decided on a
whim to change the tv channel.  That's when I found that you apparently
have to set the tv on that bottom channel that says something like "AV"
on the screen -- the channel where nothing is.  Anyway, this dvd seems
to look normal as far as picture quality, although there's immense
screen clutter -- something about movie preview and something about game
whatever, etc.  Maybe it's distortion.  I'll go back and look again.
But the boxes of the screen that had pictures looked fine -- like a cute
beagle smiling at the camera.  (The movie I rented is "Cats and Dogs.")

That's very definitely true.  But once osteoporosis has been established,
jumping with a weighted vest is too harsh an activity for those fragile
bones.  Weight lifting would be indicated.  Or walking.  Or lots of other

It's fine if I just wear shoes. Really. I'll work on it later today,

Well, I must admit that he sometimes sounds like a pompous ass--it's
the non-native-speaker-of-English-former-academic thing. You know? And

When I was on my way to rent the dvd, I heard a woman on the radio

Thanks.  It appears on first glance that I'm not going to need the
device, but I'm nevertheless saving this info in case I do find that I
do.

That's a pretty long time away.  Maybe I should get a big-screen tv, if
I can figure out how to lug it.

I understand that.  That's what I said at the beginning too.  At least with
Birkies, I can easily slip them on and off.  I utterly hated wearing tied
shoes, which I did for awhile after I was first told I had plantar
fasciitis.  Now I occasionally risk walking from the couch to the kitchen
in stocking feet.  It feels like such a luxury.  I was barefoot or stocking
foot all the time before all this.  I do that routine in the night because
that first step out of bed, after the plantar fascia has been relaxed while
sleeping, can be both painful and a nice set-up for re-injury.  I don't
think this stuff ever goes away completely.

That's not it -- unless the bridge angles are seriously distorted.  The
one I'm talking about looked almost exactly like the one I posted the
url for a few hours ago.  The only reason I know it can't be the same
one is that the one in the picture was said to have been 14 years old in
2001.  Re Sarasota et al, I really don't remember which of those cities
it was in -- Sarasota or St. Petersburg or Tampa.  (I think not Tampa.)
They always run together in my head.

At least in that picture it looks nothing at all like the one I'm
talking about.  (But that picture I posted earlier does look very, very
much like the one I remember.)

That doesn't answer the basic question.   Why is it that you don't fear
that one of these days they will find out that those drops you are putting
in your eyes cause blindness and don't prevent glaucoma at
all?            I didn't trust HRT from the beginning because it was a
matter of dosing the whole body with very strong sex hormones in the hope
that aging would be reversed.  It sounded stupid on the face of it.  But I
don't feel that way about Fosomax.  It's not a hormone.  It's a specific
drug for a specific reason with proven results.  I don't want to take it
either.  But I will if my calcium diet and weight lifting routine hasn't
improved my bone density a year from now.

I think you're wrong, and
http://www.physsportsmed.com/issues/2000/02_00/beck.htm agrees with
me.

"Some basic principles should be kept in mind when prescribing
exercise for preventing or treating osteoporosis. First and foremost
is the principle of overload. That is, the loads placed on bones
during exercise must be greater than, and preferably different from,
those experienced during normal daily activities. Given the principle
of overload, the fact that exercise intervention elicits the greatest
response from the bones of individuals with very low initial skeletal
mass is not surprising (47,48). Intensity and duration of activities
should be increased as ability improves.

Second, the effects of exercise are site-specific, that is, only bones
that are loaded will benefit from the activity (49). For example,
running will not affect the mass of upper-body bones. Third, impact
activities, or activities that place relatively large loads on bone
and do so quickly, such as running and jumping, are most
osteogenic. Fourth, to maintain the positive effects of exercise on
bone, the program must continue throughout life.

It is not possible to recommend an exercise protocol appropriate for
all."

She wouldn't start jumping on the first day she got the weighted vest,
but she could work up to it. Jumping on one of those mini-trampolines
minimizes joint damage. Somewhere in there they point out that walking
is not enough that you need resistance exercise (like Pilates or
weight-training) as well. (I guess that's implied in the site-specific
paragraph.)

She's not Mexican, she's Italian-American. She grew up in Harlem when

Well, it's a connective tissue injury. Those do tend to be
permanent.  I injured my achilles tendon over 20 years ago and it
still hurts sometimes. I'm not going to wear shoes in the house except
during the winter, you can't make me, no, no, no.

 From _Strong Women, Strong Bones_ by Miriam Nelson:

"An exciting new exercise with proven bone benefits is vertical
jumping.  Just two minutes per day of vertical jumping can produce
significant improvements in the hipbones in a matter of months.  This is
the single most efficient form of exercise for the bones.  Unfortunately,
vertical jumping is not for everyone. Only premenopausal women who don't
have osteoporosis can safely benefit from this form of exercise."

Not very long at all.  When I realized that I couldn't walk down to town
and back without significant foot pain, I caved.  But there was a long
period of time between caving and ceasing the bitter resentment.

Italian Harlem existed between 1880 and the 1950s. Be more precise.

        Glaucoma would prevent being able to *read*.  That's serious.

        My best friend from college has a candy store in that area --
Townsend.  Maybe I'll take Ana for a tour of Vermont this
summer and we'll visit for an afternoon.  I don't think I've
ever brought Ana to Vermont.  I'd love to live there.

No, it's a pompous-ass-being-cutesy thing. How does he take
a joke played on him?

Well, it's pretty interesting that a "Ligniere" sighting can
easily be deduced when posts change from "LOL" to "I am going
to be insufferably humorless about Pilates" and back.

I watched a good bit of the movie, and the picture couldn't be better.
It's perfect.  That screen clutter at the beginning was apparently just
the intro to this particular movie -- showing the video equipment of
this team of dogs.  I turned it off a few minutes ago because it just
feels too weird to sit watching a movie in the middle of the day.  But
here's something I'm wondering about:  If I remove the disc, then it
will presumably go back to the beginning, right?  Like if I plan to
continue watching it (which I might not do), I need to leave the disc in
the player?  And when I get ready to return it to Movie Gallery, there's
nothing to do, right?  This all seems so strange.

That's right.  I think you said she just happened to live in Mexico at
some point.

Yes.  At least one friend of hers does.  I'm not sure whether anybody
else does.  The segment was already underway when I got in the car.

I do fear putting any medicines into my body, but, as I said earlier, it
seems to be the only way to prevent blindness at this point (other than
the surgery, which is iffy since you don't know when its effect wears
off).

        Copley Square.  The church is Trinity.  I'm not sure what
train station you're talking about, but several stations are
linked by tunnels under there (Park St., Gov.t' Center,
Downtown Crossing -- the old Scolly Square Station is under
there, too, but not accessible -- it's full of emergency
supplies in case of disaster).  And there are lots of shoe
stores around there -- that location is pretty central, so
lots and lots of stuff would be a short walk away.

        Unless you're talking about Amtrak, which is South Station,
but that's more into the Financial District/China Town end,
and not that close to the Greyhound Terminal.  No, that
doesn't make sense.  No grassy areas.

That sounds right!  I might even have somewhere a card from the shoe
store.  Somehow the name Tanner's comes to me, but that's quite likely
wrong.  I just remembered that one task I was going to perform this
weekend was to go through my piles of little cards and stuff stuck into
a basket on my desk.  But I fear I'm not going to get to that after
all.

        The mention of Trinity reminds me of a funny conversation I
had not too long ago.  One of our Nigerian congregation
members got married last month, and I was introduced to one
of the wedding party because he is a student up at Tufts,
but the introducer failed to mention our <connection>.
Well, the Tufts Nigerian just went on and on about Trinity,
where he is a member, and how much bigger it is than St.
Barnabas.  I then proceeded to tell him the history of
Trinity, described some of the insides (I was never a
member, but I have been there), etc. and I think I shocked
him a little.  Of course Trinity has millions in endowment
and poor little 100-family St. B. hasn't even paid off its
mortgage yet.  It was a fun conversation.  We finally
discovered that he lives on the same street off Davis Square
in Somerville that I once lived on.  Small world.

Do you know where Boylston Street is in Boston?  I just searched
switchboard.com's yellow pages.  Didn't find Tanner's but did find
Tannery.  That could be it.

        It looks lovely.  And it would be trivial to get to South
Station from there.  Back Bay station (Orange Line) to
Downtown Crossing (Orange and Red lines) to South Station
(Red Line).

If the movie starts at the beginning just click the forward arrow. It
should be in segments, so you will jump from scene to scene quickly and
you shouldn't have to watch the whole thing. Or at least that is how
mine works.

        It's in the neighborhood.

        Stores come and go pretty quickly in that neighborhood.  I've
never paid enough attention to know which ones are
neighborhood fixtures.

How Clyde Proved That He Knows Everything

When Ligniere agreed to be my guinea pig, he told me where he had seen
brussels sprouts on sale, so I got in my car and drove there. And what
to my wondering eyes should appear but a recipe for pomegranate glazed
chicken! (From the Whole Foods cookbook--this was Whole Foods (at the
Arboretum for anyone playing along at home).)

This stack of recipes was perched in the midst of a pile of
persimmons, which caused me some consternation at first.

Anyway, the recipe calls for pomegranate molasses, which is made by
boiling pomegranate juice with sugar (which they tell you how to
do--8-12 pomegranates yield 1 c of fresh juice).

I never thought I'd see 'enjoy' and 'anti-virus software' in the same
sentence.:) I've never had problems with Norton--and it is what I
use. I was just reporting.

Then again, I'm suddenly having a very vague memory that the second time
I went there, several years after the first time, it took a while to
find it and that I thought the green places weren't where they had been
before in relation to the store.  So I bet it is the Tannery.

Pretty well, the times I've done it. Mostly, he does such a good job

Yeah, but sticking the recipe in the middle of the persimmons is
counterproductive. I wonder how many people can't tell the difference
and tried to get persimmon juice...

I went somewhere else for my pomegranate juice.

Thanks. People that vibrant don't stay with us as long as we would like
sometimes.

My proposal for my Ed.S. thesis was already approved, and I'd selected my
committee for that phase. The way the joint doctoral program I'm in works is
that the Ed.S. specialty study forms sort of a proposal for further study
that will be completed at University of Reading in its Ph.D. program. Dr.
Flynn had already set my up with my UK adviser this past summer. People on
my dissertation committee will come from both MSU and UR.

I was/am to finish the Ed.S. at the end of this coming summer. It is likely
my new MSU adviser will become her husband, also in the same department.

The person who called me and told me the news is the son of that
department's head (Education, Leadership and Counseling) -- hired the same
time as me for my new job and my cow orker.

He's going to keep me posted. Apparently the service will be held in
Manhattan, KS (her parents were KSU faculty) and there will be a memorial
service here.

I was shopping for a Christmas present for her yesterday.

Well, Janet sent me her popcorn bowl. I have to say that it makes
*great* popcorn. There are a fair number of unpopped kernels (not as
many as w/ ordinary microwave popcorn), but I think they would have
popped if I'd left it going long enough. I like being able to add my
own <stuff> to the popcorn. I also like that the popcorn doesn't burn.

Ah, no, that's fine. Ligniere lent me some 'educational videos' about

There was another place that I have to look up, but I can't remember

You know where the old downtown post office is, next to the judiciary

There was a hilarious story in today's Starkville Daily News on
yesterday's shopping in various parts of the state.  I just looked to
see whether it was online, but the website does not appear to have been
updated today -- it's got today's date at the top but yesterday's
stories.  The parts I found funny were about Walmart doors crashing down
somewhere (not here) as the hordes started rushing in and about people
throwing things in another Wmart somewhere.  According to a story in the
Jackson paper, some people set out for shopping at 3 a.m. yesterday.

I'm being very ho-hum about shopping this year.  I've finished most of
my mother's shopping -- mainly magazine subscriptions.  But I've done
almost none of my own.  I also have managed this weekend not to do xmas
cards, something I usually do Thanksgiving weekend.  I've also got to
figure out what to do for my mother re xmas cards.  She has never sent a
xmas letter, but I think that may be in order this year -- a very short
one, saying she's fine, that Buddy died, and that she wishes everybody
happy holidays.  She can barely write anymore, so I know she can't write
xmas notes on cards.  Even just signing her name is getting to be a
problem -- though she can still put letters in crossword puzzle boxes.

        Ah, well. Then she'd walk through one of the tunnels from
Downtown Crossing to Park Street and get on the Green Line.
  Still trivial.  And Park Street is such a cool subway station.

        Sounds like one of those horrible historical romance novel
names.  The Eamonn I know is very nice, though, and not at
all historical romancey.

Didn't resemble any menu I've ever seen -- a box with a smiling beagle,
letters running along the bottom of the screen, some kind of button
saying something about games (but not a clickable button), another box
with other pictures in it, and more other boxes (the boxes kept changing
content).

Depends on the timing and stuff.  I could have one right away.  How
about something like a New Year's Day party?  All of y'all could come to
Sville to eat blackeyed peas on Jan. 1.

Sounds like a slippery slope.  Next thing you know I'd be taking who

How soon after the party will I need to die?  There will be a certain
amount of clean-up, etc. to do post-party.

I just watched a bit more of the dog movie and then turned it off.  Dumb
movie but really great picture.  I'm a fan of dvd now -- except for the
problem that most of what I watch on tape is stuff I've recorded
myself.  I very rarely rent movies.  Still, though, it feels good to
have entered <the modern age>.

        I don't *get* that.  Prices will go back up this week, but
the same discounts will be available before Christmas.
There's nothing special about 50% off in this retail
climate.  There's a certain attractiveness to getting it all
done at once, I suppose, but not in that kind of chaos.  I
didn't even have to wait in line at Target today to check out.

        My photo cards aren't back from Target, but I have my labels
printed out.  I took an especially nice photo of Ana with
the Mississippi River in the background a few weeks ago, and
that's what I had made into cards.  I usually do cards on
Thanksgiving, but I'm behind on everything this year.  I
just discovered a big tub of Christmas decorations that
belonged to my mother in law -- I'll have to go through all
those Christmas week when I'm off, I guess.

I don't think we're talking about the same movie.  This one is named
"Cats and Dogs."  I thought it might be kind of like "Babe," which I
really did enjoy.  But except for talking animals, it wasn't.  I failed
to get into its spirit.  At the very beginning I thought I might like it
because of a wonderful bloodhound.  But he was dognapped by a cat truck
very early.  The beagle was fun to watch for a little while, but the
whole think got old fast.

Oh sure...I still have loads of vinyl. I need a turntable though and I want
one that plays 78s since I have some of those, too. I found one at
Restoration Hardware...it plays 45s, 33s and 78s...and it's portable and has
"stereo sound." Under $150, I believe. It's on my next shopping list. Today,
with my friend Laurie, I bought a lovely poppy decorated teapot. We had tea
at Lovejoy's Tea Room....a cozy, Devon cream and Lemon Curd kind of
place..where all the cups and teapots and linens are mismatched. A favorite
spot to relax in Noe Valley. We ought to make a plan to go there. It's very
civilized.

If somebody gave me a Rabbit or another by the same company, I'd be

Yes, it's one of my favorite Willow episodes.  Heartbroken because Oz has
sent for his things without leaving a message for her, Willow casts a spell
to have her will done.  Trouble is:  when she deliberately has her will done,
nothing happens.  But when she says things in conversation (tells Giles
that he never sees anything, tells Xander that she thinks that Spike is
more important to Buffy than she is and why doesn't she go marry him,
and tells Xander that he's a demon magnet because of his various love
interests), these things happen.

Another favorite Spike quote (from the Thanksgiving episode in Season
4):  Spike's had a little trip to the vet, and now he can't chase the other
puppies anymore.
(The Initiative (a paramilitary group headed by Prof. Walsh) has put a
chip in Spike's head, and now he can't harm humans.)

Spike, from the Buffy TV series.  He's my favorite vampire on the
show; he started out evil and has become a quasi-member of
Buffy's Scooby Gang.  I had hoped that he would take Giles'
place as Buffy's Watcher and trainer this season now that
Anthony Stewart Head has all but left the show, but Whedon
had other plans.  What happens to Spike this season shouldn't
happen to anyone.

Spike:  Not exactly the St. Crispin's Day speech.
Giles:  We few, we happy few.
Spike:  We band of buggered.

Please, do not spoil the spontaneous charm of my question. Did you
know some cultures think the occasional misspelling is charming?

Recession Strikes Texas, but Not in Oil-Bust Way

December 1, 2002
By JIM YARDLEY




Texas is enduring a recession that reveals how its economy
has diversified so broadly that old assumptions no longer
apply.

        Oh, I thought you mentioned getting "Best in Show."

        There was a movie called "Cats and Dogs" with Tushar's wife
and Uma Thurman ... it was an update of Cyrano and was
pretty good.  Never heard of the one you're describing though.

        I have this vision of the tumultuous but passionate love
affair between Eamonn and Maeve.  Maeve is young with fiery
red... no!... raven black hair that whips out behind her
pretty impetuous head as she rides heedlessly across the
moors, petticoats, etc. tucked up so she can scandalize the
peasants by riding astride.  Across the bridge of her nose
are some unladylike freckles (but they're darling, as we
shall soon see).  Eamonn is dark and dashing with a grey
hair or two at the temple.  He is a quiet man, hard from
battle and protective of his heart since his beloved and
beautiful wife and young daughter were killed in a raid by a
neighboring clan... and of course he is somehow important in
a leadership role... the two are destined to meet!  But he
offends her mightily with his high-handed manners and
dismissal of her as unimportant... but soon the sparks fly
and there is a night of desperate love making that includes
much panting and creamy heaving of staffs by the light of
the peat fires.  And Eamonn rides into battle the next day,
leaving poor creamy heaving Maeve in torment and anorexic
psychosis (she is already a skinny thing, too!).
        The battle goes badly, and Eamonn makes it back to the peat
fires of home in time to sweep near-death Maeve off her feet
and bring her to Chicago, where he hears he can give up the
bloody business of fighting for a patch of infertile land
and drive a Taxi...

        Oh, please.  I didn't mean Borders-Tuesday-writing-workshop
poet.  Real poet.  Duh.

Nice phone sex too.

this stuff ...

No, that was the one I taped from free HBO.  Haven't watched it yet.
The dvd I rented was "Cats and Dogs" -- and it was dog (in spite of nice
picture quality).  The pickings were pretty slim at Movie Gallery
yesterday.  I couldn't find anything interesting on the "New Releases"
shelf (which I think has a very loose definition of "new" -- it covers
most of the store -- shelves, not shelf).  So I looked on the
"Favorites" shelf and found this one.  I'm not sure whose favorite it
was.

There's an interesting article in todays paper about a 'wind
profiler':
http://www.austin360.com/statesman/editions/sunday/metro_state_2.html

Also, a very good column about where to build the new federal
courthouse in Austin. The GSA has gone about this in what seems to be
the best way to piss people off. First, they decided to rip down the
Children's Museum! Now they are going after a 70-year old restaurant.
http://www.austin360.com/aas/metro/kelso/1202/120102.html

I also recommend the Ben Sargent cartoon,
http://www.austin360.com/aas/editorial/sargent/

Also a gem about a bus driver who got arrested for alarming his
passengers: http://www.austin360.com/statesman/editions/today/news_25.html

I read the book first, then saw the movie.  But maybe I'll watch it
again.  The timing is funny because of a funny paper I graded a few days
ago with a "My Dog Skip" reference.  I think it's one of the ones still
in my office, so I can't quote directly from it.  Also, you kind of need
to see the whole paper to appreciate these really strange things tossed
into it.  I've forgotten what his major is -- something unrelated to
language.  But he is a very conscientious student in Intro to
Linguistics and will make at least C+, possibly B, in the course in
spite of these odd bits in his paper.  The first one was when he said
something like, "As depicted in the movie 'My Dog Skip,' many Southern
families sent their children to England to be educated."  Somehow using
"My Dog Skip" as support struck me as hilarious.  (I don't remember
anything in that movie about going to England to be educated, btw, but
it may well have been there -- another reason perhaps to watch it again
tonight.)  A couple of pages later, after I had finally stopped laughing
about "My Dog Skip," I came upon a truly amazing paragraph talking about
Scarlett O'Hara as if she'd been a real, live nineteenth-century
Southerner and going on to say something about how the obvious
r-lessness of Mammy is strong support that Southern r-lessness was more
likely to have come from black nannies than from being educated in
England.

But you think we care about Austin.  I heard the place was depressed.  No jobs.

I went to Valley Ford today.  That was cool.

They're one of the things I was born too late for. I think I would have
liked it there. I remember reading a story about them once in Smithsonian

Good lord...just got a call from a close friend who works at Salon.com.
The Sex Editor needs people to review new *vibrators* and my friend picked
up a few, including one she's set aside for me. Good grief. She's way
prudish in her lifestyle, but, if she's game, I'm game. I'm swinging by her
place tomorrow to drop off some holiday cookies I made, and I guess I'll
pick up the item to be reviewed while I'm at it. I hope it's not
anatomically correct....or some trendy shade of fushia.

I suppose Karen's dream job would be "for pay" but for a volunteer gig, this
isn't so bad. I shall remain anonymous in my review comments.

Only in California.  These things never happen in Maine.  However, we did
have a chopped up body put in a dumpster in Augusta, Maine when a
domination scene in Massachusetts went bad and the guy died.  They never
did find any of the body parts.  But the dominatrix is now under arrest and
admitted that she and her partner chopped up the body and put it in eight
garbage bags before driving it up to Maine.   They are going to try to get
her on involuntary manslaughter.  But she might get away with a six month
sentence on improper disposal of a dead body.

I suspect Karen would make a terrific caterer. I think she'll get the gig

I'm glad you mentioned "My Dog Skip."  I enjoyed seeing it again.  I had
rented it in Hville when it was first available on tape, and my mother
and I watched it.  She loved it.  I wish she could still <connect> with
things the way she could then.

Willie Morris got to see an advance showing of that movie shortly before
he died.  He died before it was released.  (His death was unexpected --
it's not as if they did a private showing for him because he was dying
-- it's just that that's how the timing happened to work out.)

I have a good friend who lives in a condo complex in Franklin, a suburb of
Milwaukee, Wisconsin.  She and her sister went off to Door County,
Wisconsin for the Thanksgiving weekend.  When they got home this afternoon,
her sister's condo in the same development had been vandalized.  All her
sister suffered was gang graffiti on her garage door.  But her neighbor's
car was sitting in the driveway burned to a skeleton.  Scary.

    The Texas DPS and the local LEOs.  You do know that sworn officers who
ignore violations of the law can be charged with those same infractions, don't
you?  They don't have to like them, but they ignore them to their peril.

> Give Heinrich Ashcroft and the Ministry of Internal Security a year or so...

    Y'know, for someone who a year ago expressed a wish to be able to
incarcerate without trial someone who merely said something they found
disagreeable, I'd be a tad loathe to go around making fascistic imprecations.
Especially since throwing into camps people not of your liking doesn't have the
world's greatest track record.  Can't you elevate your level of discourse above
that?

No tomatoes on my outing today.  But lots and lots of fresh balsam fir

Ha-ha!

Though I have to say that one plant has been the biggest producer. I'm
definitely growing more of those.

My trees have mostly lost their leaves, though.

Have any of you ever experienced a "buffer overrun"
in your computer?  I'm getting a screen message that
a buffer overrun has been detected "which has corrupted
the program's internal state.  The program cannot safely
continue execution and must now be terminated."

Yet it's still working, even tho I keep getting the message.

Any advice?

P. S.  Couple of days ago I had installed Hot Bar.  The
error message (above) had a line with a reference to Hot Bar
so I uninstalled it, but am still being warned.

                         - D. M.

You have company: <http://malektips.com/ubb/Forum1/HTML/000223.html>.  Not
that they've figured out the problem.

The message kinda sounds like a Hotbar message, and not a system message,
FWIW.  So maybe Hotbar is not all the way uninstalled.

Buffer overruns can be programming errors, but they are also used by virus
writers to attack programs that weren't designed carefully enough.  In that
capacity, it's a common way to breach a sort of wall in order to infect the
computer at large.

Hopefully it's a programming error. :)

You should definitely reboot your computer.  If that doesn't make it go
away, try Hotbar support.  You should also visit
<http://windowsupdate.microsoft.com/> and get all the critical updates done.

If you're up for it, you can try updated antivirus software, too.

The other day a captain in the US Army asked a bookdealer if it would be
possible to get donations of paperback books for the soldiers because
reading material is scarce wherever he is. She posted this request, and
everyone eagerly said they'd send books. This morning he wrote to say
that legally he cannot accept book donations, he'd been wrong to ask,
and never mind. I don't get it, and I have no other details--I saw the
request, I saw the request withdrawal, that's all.

And so you've made explicit for me something I've been wondering about for
a while -- the criterion for software which gets installed on my base
Windows PC image.  Programs I enjoy using make the cut; programs I don't
enjoy don't.  I install them if I have to use them, but wipe them thereafter.

Programs I enjoy (or at least don't dislike) using include:

Acrobat Reader
BreezeBrowser
Eudora
ExactAudioCopy
Internet Cache Explorer
Internet Explorer
Google Toolbar
Nero
Panorama Tools and PTGui
Proxomitron
SuperJPG
Teleport Pro
Trillian
UltimateZip
Windows Media Player

Programs in purgatory:

Dreamweaver MX
Excel
MindManager
PowerPoint

Programs I don't enjoy using include:

antivirus software :)
Microsoft Word
Outlook
Outlook Express
Real Player

I actually like fruitcake. This is not just a straight line.

The p.o. had my LLBean sheets (which were shipped by Airborne
somethingorother, but they ship to po's) and my E-Bay eye book.
Also a cute little gift/card kit from the Humane Society.

And the nice shoe man I called gave me a UPS tracking # for
my shoes, which are as we speak "out for delivery," having left
Mayhew at 7:18 a.m. today.  So they should make it to me
sometime before 5:00.

Just wanted to let y'all know since I knew you were all waiting
to hear the word on these matters.

I highly recommend Davidson's Shoes, btw.  The man on the phone
was very friendly.  Didn't seem like a Yankee except for his
accent.

We have a university wide licensee which gives free updates. We are
using Norton and like it much better then McAfee.

I know this has been discussed briefly on the list, but
may I ask again for opinions:  

I have Norton AntiVirus and have been notified regularly
when it is time to renew the service for a fee of $20 or
maybe it's $29.  A while back Karen or someone said it
is not necessary to pay for updates.  So I had occasion
to talk by phone with someone from Symantec and I
asked them and they said that getting updates off the
web free is not the same as the service I had for updates.

What do the rest of you do?  Do you have a paid service
or get free updates off the web, and is it the same or not?

Thanks for replies.

BTW Peter's advice was taken and I think cleared up my
computer problem from yesterday.

Do you just let them use your computer or do you take a shift watching the

Fortunately, my univ. has a site license for NAV - so I get free updates,
either from the web or on disc. I see no difference and have not been
advised that there is one. If there is, I'd like to know that it is.

That surprises me. I don't have MX, I have the one just before it and
I really like it.

I wonder why you don't enjoy Real Player? I used it for years, but
I've started using Windows Media Player in preference because things
seem to to work better on it. But this was a difficult transition--I
enjoyed RP for a long time.

Oh, Bonnie, it's actually somewhat depressing...  I believe they've received
signals from, and processed over 2/3rds of our galaxy, and nothing.  But I
understand they are looking for a microwave signal around the resonance of
hydrogen.  They seem to believe that intelligent life will "understand" that
is a frequency we should all be listening to.

There are reasons I speculate why we're getting nothing:

1) There's nothing out there.
    a) As intelligent life emerges it kills itself off with technology
within a brief period of time.  This was Carl Sagan's fear.
    b) Life is very rare, and we actually may be the only ones.  This is
doubtful though.

2) They're out there but aren't communicating.
    a) They haven't concluded that the resonance of hydrogen is *the*
frequency to chat on.
    b) They're actually much smarter than we, and are laughing their
by-product disposal organs off at our VHF & UHF signals.  Of course with the
distances that signals would have to travel, they will be receiving our
television and radio from around 50 years ago, give or take, and as Sagan
once pointed out, that would most likely mean It's Howdy Doody Time :-\

We have the same thing and pay the fee every year.  I see that my update

What a wonderful voice Bad Betty has.  She just called me up to tell me
that the Berkeley email system is down.  She didn't want me to think that
she was ignoring her turn at Scrabble.   She sounded right next door.  Or
maybe right in the passenger seat of my car as we drove around New England.

I've just started using Dreamweaver -- before that I'd just used Emacs or
notepad.

I like it, although there are still a few things that drive me crazy: not
being able to have two windows (or one split window) one the same file, for
instance.  And I really wish it had an outline mode, where it collapsed
everything below <H?>'s.

I hate their coercive distribution model.  Whenever I've had to use it,
it's always such a struggle not to have to buy something or get all my file
associations switched.

Oftentimes manufacturers' ideas of "critical" means critical for them but
not you; Microsoft's recommendations are usually pretty reasonable for the
user and worth heeding.

Maybe I ought to review it as a neck massager since that's how they're sold
at Sharper Image. As bizarre as this little project is, I'm seriously amused
that my friend is participating. Let's face it, it's a job best suited to
Janet. I haven't got much experience to compare it with...and she's got that
in spades.

I'll bring it up to  a friend of mine who was giving me his billion reasons
why he's moving back to Texas after he finishes his 20 yrs in the Coast
Guard (this May). He went on and on about how he could be more of a "person"
there...citing gun laws, etc. He's no monk....I wonder if he knows this. I
don't know much about his personal life, but he does volunteer at the
Renaissance and Dicken's Fairs and those guys are known for being especially
amourous.

a flash of a memory from 1996 in Siberia:

Some of the women at a party were singing a song (not knowing that I understood
any Russian).  I've forgotten most of it now, though I did understand most of it at the
time.  The opening line was "Ya kupila kolbasu" ( I bought a sausage) and it went on
to elaborate how that was a much easier chioce than the <real thing> with all the
problems that come attached to it.

I was wondering the same thing, then decided that Janet probably hangs
around more people who talk about using vibrators than Sandra does.

I pay MacAffee out of laziness. I don't use my home computer much and when
I do I'm not thinking about updates. I could have some sorta reminder pop

It's not all that difficult to get a little experience although it could be
a tad costly.

The Body Shop has great stuff too. As does Sephora.

If Garden Botanika  is still around they are also a good choice. You could

I love getting gifts from places like this because I never go into these
places when I'm scurrying around the mall.

Actually, as a proxy for not having outline mode.

Basically, in both circumstances I'd like to be able to move sections of
the document around in the document.  If I've got a window that can split
and show two different parts of the same document (like MS Word does), I
can cut 'n' paste from one to the other.  (Slicker than splitting is
actually having two (or multiple) windows, like Photoshop does, so you can
see and work on different parts of the document, even in different viewing
modes.)

I think Real started it, so it as a little company would have a way to
compete with Microsoft -- who, I agree, is not uncoercive, either.

LOL. No. There is a sex toy shop across the street from a restaurant
where Ligniere goes often, but I've never been in the store. Their

Okay, I get it. Actually, with Word (and Frame), I'd much rather use
multiple windows that the split screen stuff; I find that confusing.

I cooked two turkeys -- one in the oven at 500 (Barbara Kafka high-heat

I'm looking for a good computer for about $400 - 500; that's what I'm
going to do with the extra money I earn this year; I'm going to work
at least 4 days a week at Reasor's and two at Sears if Erin doesn't
come back (if she does, I'm going to quit there and work 5 days a
week at Reasor's).

Dog dance?

Speaking of which, I met some prospective neighbors. They are very
nice. They told me that the real estate agent told them that it would
take at least $30,000 to make the house habitable, and that it's
absolutely disgustingly filthy on the inside. Most rooms don't even
have carpet in them, just painted boards.

And you people wonder why I want to quit sometimes.

Today, I walked in and I run into K., who is one of my
students, who I have seen all weekend in the newspaper and
on T.V. as he was one of the big stars of the State
Championship game, which the team won on Saturday.  He is
completely and totally insufferable.

I open up my email.  There was an accident after the rally
on Thurs., and a freshman girl was injured very badly after
being hit by a car.  I don't recognize the name, so breathe
a little sigh of relief.  Then I read further and I *do*
recognize the name of the student driving the car, who is in
my 4th hour class.  We were doing the 8th level of hell
today, which I thought was a little heavy for a kid who just
nearly killed a classmate, but whatever.

And second hour a student who has been gone for about six
weeks magically reappears -- student has been incarcerated
during that time.

As I'm trying to escape at 3:15, a student I don't know runs
up to me in a panic because I'm the last teacher on the
floor and she's working on some project and I simply HAVE to
know who Zarathustra was.

I'm a fan of Goo Gone and I've noted some of you mentioning
OxiClean....well, imagine using them together...

                           *********
                      Removing Ink Stains

I have gotten many ink stains and even black motor oil out of
a new winter white slacks with this combination. Make a paste
out of Oxi-Clean (now a couple of other companies are making
this chlorine free product) and apply it directly to the stain
and rub in well. If the stain is breaking up and coming out,
rinse and repeat until the stain is gone. If the stain does
not appear lighter, then apply "Goo Gone" in addition to the
Oxi-Clean paste and rub in. The stain will disappear! It may
take a couple of applications of the Goo Gone and be sure to
rub it into the stain, but I can promise the stain will come
out! Goo Gone is available at most grocery stores now, at some
of the dollar stores and at mass merchandisers such as K-Mart
and Wal-Mart. If you cannot find it in your area, they have a
toll free number: 1-800-321-6330

It works miracles on grease, chewing gum, crayon, and tape.

I prefer caipirinha - the grown-up mojito.
Apple-martini - depends on who makes it.

And, fortunately, you did.  Sounds like a stressful day apart from this
last thing.  I only touched very tangentially on the lives of teenagers
about 15 years ago when I was the assistant to our girls' crew coach in Oak
Ridge.  I couldn't handle it.  Such angst.

And you wonder why I want to quit ... there are ch*ks whom you
are totally nice to *voluntarily*, who suddenly decide *after
a while* that you are secretly laughing at them! What's with
that? I tried reading "Pride and Prejudice" today to see if
there is any clue in there, but there isn't. This is highly
aggravating ...

That Dell sounds good.  I used to sell eMachines, and we got almost
every one of them back.  We didn't even offer an MA on them, just a
replacement guarantee such as that on phones and Walkmen.

And Laurel Bouquet was an exquisite choice.  The blue on the yellow
background matches my blue blankets and comforter, and the yellow
provides nice relief from the blue.  The old holy sheets will go to the
shelter after they're washed so that the doggies can snuggle in them
this winter.

That description isn't very clear.  It included some tags and tiny bows
and stuff plus some xmas cards.  I took the xmas cards when visiting my
mother on my way home and had her sign them.  I also had her <approve>
the short xmas letter I wrote in her name to insert with the cards.
I'll take more cards tomorrow for her to sign.  She did a pretty good
job of it today.  I was afraid she'd get tired after the first one or
make such a mess of her signature that it would be depressing for people
to look at.  But she did fine.

My Norton pops up every once in a while and tells me it's time for an
update.  I tell it to go ahead, and it downloads the update to my
computer.  I've never been charged anything for that service.  If I hear
of a serious-sounding new virus, I don't wait for the Norton box to pop
up -- I open Norton and click on "live update" and have it updated right
then and there.

Yeah, I'm not surprised, although we've bought three, use them every day,
and each one is still going strong.  I wonder if the returns really broke,
or if people got upset at some Windows screw-up.  With a bigger brand name,
you can't complain as much, but with a smaller brand, you can blame it on
the computer instead of the OS.

I'm not particularly knowledgeable about WIndows machines, but based on

Little Miss Sunshine checking in here again:  I have no complaints at
all about Windows XP.  (Windows ME is a whole nother thing.  It's

the floor of my closet right now since it accidentally came here a while

I've used JetAudio since 1997 or so, I think. http://www.jetaudio.com. I use
version 4.95. It has a nice non-all-in-1 interface. They're about to come
out with version 5 with the all-inclusive interface, but I'm not upgrading.

Which album? I'm listening to disc 4 of the box set at the moment. I just
got my 5th copy of the box set (in 11 years). This time I wised up and have
burned copies for daily use.

It's been about a year since I've been able to listen to this disc. There
are some great standards on here. Her version of Irving Berlin's "Always" is
the best I've ever heard, and her version of "Does Your Heart Beat For Me"
by (I think) The Mills Brothers is just the best.

Try "Mansfield Park" instead.

I'm not saying there are clues in it, but you might like it better. I find
that P&P is overrated.

> I prefer caipirinha - the grown-up mojito.

OMG, that is my FAVORITE. I saw the Two Fat Ladies make one and I knew I had
to try it.

I also really like gin gimlets.

The last time I had a gimlet, I think the sugar in the sweetened lime juice
and the alcohol really hit my system hard and I think I was mildly
hallucinating - it looked like the teeth of one of my friends had turned
black. That was in August at the fancy wedding and I've not had a drop of
alcohol since.

Our three eMachines range from 366-566MHz; if you don't have special needs,
you don't really need a faster box.  You could upgrade for Presario with
128MB RAM for $30-$40 (Best Buy's advertising a Mushkin 512MB DIMM for
$70), and a 30-40GB HD for $100.  Win98SE upgrades go for $30-$40 on eBay.

It's a possibility.  You'll end up spending ~$200 anyway, but if that's
significantly easier than spending $350+ (or if you want to spend the
difference on software), your Presario with the upgrades would be a good
computer.  Note that a good chunk of the $200 is more or less recoverable
if you end up buying a new computer in a year or two and junking your
Presario.  The hard drive will certainly be able to be moved to a new
machine; the memory maybe.  Win98SE, probably not.

If you don't mind spending the $350, though, the added features of a newer
computer (faster processor, DVD or CDRW) are well worth the extra $150, and
XP should be okay.

Hmm.  I don't know whether the one on my closet floor is better or
worse.  I do think it has more RAM than that -- probably 64.  Don't
remember any of the other specs, except that it's running ME.  It's also
a Presario.

It really is silly of us to think of it as my mother's computer since
the chances of her using a computer again are ludicrously slim.  She
hasn't used it in several years now.  Her scumbag help used it quite a
bit, though.  It behaved strangely at times, and I always wondered
whether it was just its nature or whether the embezzling idiots were
doing strange things to it.

always somehow struck me as funny, even though I guess it makes sense to
buy druggish things at drugstores.  That was a great summer.

Speaking of classics, "Wizard of Oz" will be on TNT Sunday night --

another thing. This one was $112.

Well, at home I don't do much audio other than system sounds, but at work I
have 10 GB of MP3 files I listen to. I listen to music all day every day at

who is constantly on the phone.

To expand, "XP should be okay with your software, Evelyn."  I can't say

I'm only making a point of the OS because Evelyn specified Win98SE as the

Bonnie,

I see in the latest Concept II newsletter, they suggest using bubble
wrap as a seat pad. Have you done this? Was it comfortable?

Dear Friend,

Greetings !!

I come to you with a sincere heart believing in Almighty Allah that you will consider my plight and come to help and also benefit from me.

I am Mrs. Amina Mohammed, cousin and Personal Assistant to former Nigeria Head of State, Late General Sanni Abacha who died on the 8th July 1998 while in power. Before I proceed please accept my apology for the embarrassment this mail might cause you for coming from a total stranger who you do not know. Actually I got your contact from the Internet; please do not feel bad about it because I am compelled to reach you due to urgent need to safeguard the money in question. Once again, forgive me and come to my aid. Please read the following carefully.

Sometime in early 1997, my boss late Gen. Sanni Abacha entrusted to me the sum of US$20.5M in cash (Twenty million, five hundred thousand US dollars) due to the trust and confidence he had in me. This money was meant for campaign in his self-succession bid but unfortunately he suddenly died before actualization of his aspiration. This amount of $20.5M in CASH was deposited with a security company which I will disclose in subsequent mail in a giant trunk box as diplomatic consignments In agreement with Mr.Mohammed Abacha who is the son of late General Abacha and the heir to the money. I write to solicit your assistance for the money to be transferred to your custody. Note that Mr.Mohammed Abacha is currently in detention by the present Nigeria Government for reasons linked to activities of his father when he was in power. Now based on the business trust I have on you, I would want you to come forward and receive this consignment containing the money in cash on our behalf from!
 the security company for subsequent disbursement between you and us. Understand that we are soliciting your assistance because the present Nigerian Government is seizing/freezing any Bank Account or valuables belonging to the late Head of state's family and relatives. In fact we do not have enough money now to sustain our family so, I will appreciate if you can consider our plight and assist us. For your assistance, we have agreed to compensate you with 20% of the total amount ($20.5) while the remaining 80% is for us. We hope to invest part of our share in your country on viable area of investment as you may advise us.

If you are interested you will need to visit the Security Company for clearance of the consignment. I assure you that the transaction is 100% risk free. Please I implore you to keep this transaction absolutely secret against negative exposure. I would want you to contact me immediately so that we can proceed with the business. You should please on reply enclose your private telephone, fax number so that we can have more confidential correspondence.


Best regards,
Mrs.Amina Mohammed.

In spite of Iraq fucking up by not causing problems with the UN inspectors,
POTUS and VPOTUS are determined to protect us at all cost:  "The lack of a
confrontation thus far between Iraq and inspectors has the White House
worried that the Iraqi president might be winning the early public
relations battle by creating an impression that he is complying. Aides said
those fears prompted the president and Vice President Dick Cheney to
deliver separate speeches Monday casting doubt on Saddam's intentions."

Actually, I'm glad it does. If it didn't, there would be something
wrong, IMHO.

Hang on to it, because you can't get it anymore from Macromedia.  They
really, really, really want you to be using MX.  They're pushing the MX
line as hard as Microsoft pushed ME.

Dreamweaver MX is basically a graunch of the old Dreamweaver and the old
Cold Fusion Studio; the combination is not unsuccessful, but it looks and
feels like a graunch.

Every time I launch Real Player, it tries to sell me an upgrade.  I get

This is relatively new.

I'm in the ridiculous position of not wanting to uninstall Real,
because I use Real Jukebox once every six months, and if I uninstall
it, I'd have to replace it with their silly One Thing, or whatever
it's called, which I don't want.

I stopped by my Salon.com friend's house today...and was given the vibrator
she selected for me to review. She showed me the ones she is reviewing
first. Both look like vibrators...neither is anatomically correct. One is
rather tortoise shelly with a see-thru brown body and black stripes...the
Tony the Tiger model. And the other is rather U shaped and is supposed to be
ergonomically designed. Ok, good for her.

She saved the best or worst (in my mind) for me. It's a freakin' rubber
duck...waterproof... model called I Rub My Duckie www.IRubMyDuckie.com  I
finally got the thing open to insert batteries. I guess this is for a woman
who uses toys in a tub. I'm not keen on usually battery-operated toys in a
wet environment. Scary. I'm not even sure how to use it. If you saw it
resting on the side of my tub, you'd just think it was a Rubber Duck. Crazy.
I'll probably have to make up the entire review. I only shower....I don't
usually use my tub. This is definitely the wrong model for me....it's form
over function apparently...and while it's cute, I'm not into the novelty of
it. It's just silly.

And I had to wait until I was 48 to become a grandfather.

The twins in Bergen are lovely, just as they should be. Some new gifs will be available when I get around to have the film developed. My daughter now believes that it would be better to stay on in the (sucky?) south rather than to go and stay north of the arctic circle, but we will see: she and the father-to-be still have almost half a year to make up their minds about a lot of things.

Yeah.  I've been wondering about this sort of thing.  Suppose the
inspectors come up with zilch in the way of evidence---or even more
interesting, suppose they come up with evidence that Iraq has in fact
dismantled the nasty stuff.  Then what?  I don't think that a
Sudetenland-type ploy would be convincing and I doubt like hell that Iraq
would hold a plebescite.  So what do P and VP do?  Declare the UN
inspectors to be incompetent and proceed on?  Declare the UN inspectors to
be part of the terrorist conspiracy?  Declare the UN to be part of the
terrorist conspiracy?

The old Maoist curse may be coming true--we live in interesting times.

Just out of curiosity, do they recommend the big-bubble type or the

No, I never used a seat pad.  My bones over time molded to the holes in the
seat of a Kascpher shell.  I knew other rowers who used a bit of foam
rubber as a seat pad.  I still get the Concept II newsletter also; two
copies in fact.

They've already said it.  It's not the UN's job or capability to find the
nasty stuff; besides, we know the nasty stuff is there.  When Iraq hasn't
declared it by the deadline, they will be proven to be the evil liars we
know they are.  Quod erat demonstrandum, etc.; and so he must be disarmed
by force.

"Inspectors do not have the duty or the ability to uncover terrible weapons
hidden in a vast country," [Bush] said. "The responsibility of inspectors
is simply to confirm the evidence of voluntary and total disarmament."

"It is Saddam Hussein who has the responsibility to provide that evidence
as directed and in full. Any act of delay, deception or defiance will prove
that Saddam Hussein has not adopted the path of compliance and has rejected
the path of peace," he said.

I wish it weren't 1984 -- or now, Salem in 1692 -- at the same time.

They didn't say, just that it will pop but won't lose its air for a

Why don't you tell them not to send you two copies?

This is the first time I've gotten it in the whole time I've owned

I watched "The Practice" on Sunday. One of the cases was an airline
that wouldn't fly Arab passengers. The judge ended up approving this
policy (because of the arguments presented), saying that it would
probably be struck down on appeal, but that the day is coming when it
won't. I found that chilling--very, as you say, 1984 and 1692.

It was a 12 lb. bird and it was on the grill for about 5 1/2 hours.  cooked
it skin down for a couple of minutes first to get the skin crunchy. Then I
flipped it (that's when the legs fell off!), covered it with foil, and let
it go.

It was rubbed with a Paul Prudhomme cajun no-salt spice mix. It had been
brined, more salt was unnecessary.

I should tell them not to send me any.  But it's not my responsibility to
monitor their subscription service.

I didn't realize you owned a Concept II.  I don't and never have.  I did
own a set of their oars.  And they did pay for two free plane tickets for
me over the years.

>JMW

Yes, it did.  Bit of a surprise.  It was one of those times when "no
accumulation" turned out to be quite false.  We got two or three
inches.  Just got home from a drive to the Ellsworth area and the snow has
made everything quite beautiful.  How is that you know, John, that it
snowed overnight?

It's also called a "jazz dot." It's rather beatnik looking. Slap a beret on
the guy's head and give him a black turtleneck or a nautically striped
shirt....tiens, voila....un parisien.

  this is a little long, but funny....
  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~``

  Frank Lingua, president and CEO of Dissembling Associates, is the nation's

  leading purveyor of buzzwords, catch phrases and cliches for people too

  busy to speak in plain English. Business Finance contributing editor Dan

  Danbom interviewed Lingua in his New York City office.


  Question: Is being a cliche expert a full-time job?

  Answer: Bottom line is I have a full plate 24/7.


  Question: Is it hard to keep up with the seemingly endless supply of

  cliches that spew from business?

  Answer: Some days, I don't have the bandwidth. It's like drinking from a

  fire hydrant.


  Question: So it's difficult?

  Answer: Harder than nailing Jell-O to the wall.


  Question: Where do most cliches come from?

  Answer: Stakeholders push the envelope until it's outside the box.


  Question: How do you track them once they've been coined?

  Answer: It's like herding cats.


  Question: Can you predict whether a phrase is going to become a cliche?

  Answer: Yes. I skate to where the puck's going to be. Because if you
aren't

  the lead dog, you're not providing a customer-centric proactive solution.


  Question: Give us a new buzzword that we'll be hearing ad nauseam.

  Answer: "Enronitis" could be a next-generation player.


  Question: Do people understand your role as a cliche expert?

  Answer: No, they can't get their arms around that. But they aren't
incented

  to.


  Question: How do people know you're a cliche expert?

  Answer: I walk the walk and talk the talk.


  Question: Did incomprehensibility come naturally to you?

  Answer: I wasn't wired that way, but it became mission-critical as I

  strategically focused on my go-forward plan.


  Question: What did you do to develop this talent?

  Answer: It's not rocket science. It's not brain surgery. When you drill

  down to the granular level, it's just basic blocking and tackling.


  Question: How do you know if you're successful in your work?

  Answer: At the end of the day, it's all about robust, world-class language

  solutions.


  Question: How do you stay ahead of others in the buzzword industry?

  Answer: Net-net, my value proposition is based on maximizing synergies and

  being first to market with a leveraged, value-added deliverable. That's
the

  opportunity space on a level playing field.


  Question: Does everyone in business eventually devolve into the sort of

  mindless drivel you spout?

  Answer: If you walk like a duck and talk like a duck, you're a duck. They

  all drink the Kool-Aid.


  Question: Do you read "Dilbert" in the newspaper?

  Answer: My knowledge base is deselective of fiber media.


  Question: Does that mean "no"?

  Answer: Negative.


  Question: DOES THAT MEAN "NO"?

  Answer: Let's take your issues offline.


  Question: NO, WE ARE NOT GOING TO TAKE MY "ISSUES" OFFLINE.

  Answer: You have a result-driven mind-set that isn't a strategic fit with

  my game plan.


  Question: I WANT TO PUSH YOUR FACE IN.

  Answer: Your call is very important to me.


  Question: How can you live with yourself?

  Answer: I eat my own dog food. My vision is to monetize scalable supply

  chains.


  Question: When are you going to quit this?

  Answer: I may eventually exit the business to pursue other career

  opportunities.


  Question: I hate you.

  Answer: Take it and run with it.

I'm not an apple martini fan. They're tasty but the thought of them curdles
my stomach.

I looked up the recipe for the caipirinha's. They have potential (they'd
have more if I actually knew what the liquor tasted like) but lack the one
thing I love about mojitos, fresh mint.

My affair with mojitos is purely accidental. I had no idea they were trendy
I didn't even know the existed. Tina and I went to dinner at French
Brazilian restaurant (french in portions, brazil in cuisine) where they
were on the drink list. My cocktail preference is something light and
crisp. Tangueray and Tonic is the usual choice (another former trendy
drink) but I wanted something with a bit more flair that night. Turns out
my discovery was a well told secret.

Thanks for the tip, this will be used as another selling point to get Tina
to join me. She's a little skeptical of this whole thing. I let her read
some of the mail once and she was even more skeptical. I should have known
that would be the result.

That's the name of one of the "toy" stores in Cambridge, Ma.

Despite once having worked a few blocks away from it for over a year I've
never checked it out.

In a high ball glass filled with ice, layer: shot of kahlua, shot of vodka,

Ah, well, these boutique libations come and go, but in my depth of

oh my god I do remember them. I also remember waking up on a friend's
couch, finding my broken watch next to me and feeling so awful I called in
sick to work (I must have been out on a thursday night).

Not too long ago I ran into the woman I did the shots with and she asked if
I remembered that night. I smiled and said yes but I really only remember
the morning.

Easier said than done. You can explain to ch*ks that you are
not laughing at them and they aren't pissed off any more. With
women--I mean fuxx0rs you fail to be spontaneous with rosemary
bread or something even more preposterous, and you are persona
non grata the rest of your life.

You can't prove a negative, Dr Voigtlander. Karl Popper said that.
Anyway, the POTUS has already proved himself to be a capable and
agile thinker, so he will find a way. *I* think that the impossibility
of proving a negative could be made into a pretty convincing case,
but there might be a cleverer way. Isn't there reliable intelligence
that scientists are being ordered to conceal weapons in their houses?

I can picture a SCUD

- in the back yard with the access panel open and "Fido" hastily scrawled in still
runny paint

etc.

That was an example, K-R-N. By the way, thanks for the rare statement
about women which goes "NOT all women are this or that". And thanks
in general for speaking for all women without loading every statement
with ultra-personal fixations.

I've never had mine crash.  Sometimes Eudora crashes.  But now I even
manage to shut that down with the three-fingered salute and don't have to
shut down completely.

And what's this thing I hear about doing something to your earlobes to make
the hole for an erring progressively bigger?  People look like they have a
huge black dot on their ears.  We saw these things in Seattle.  Even the
tourists in Downeast Maine don't look so weird.

Sometimes when you walk into Havana's, the bartender is preparing the mint

I hope you can talk her into it.  If nothing else, you guys really need to
see more of Maine than just Ogunquit.  It's really quite different and very
beautiful up here.  It is truly the "rockbound coast of Maine."    Even if
Tina ends up not too fond of wordslers, it can be a nice hiking, biking,
good food and drink vacation.

Ah, ha.  I looked at that this morning as well and was disappointed because
it didn't accurately reflect the amount of snow we got.  We got somewhat
more than what it looked like.  But the 7:30 a.m. picture was nice with the
street lights and the snowy street.

Off another list:

A nicely done, rather subtle forgery of a Dow Chemical press release and web
site.  The fake web site (http://www.dow-chemical.com) is less over-the-top
than most similar efforts, and is thus perhaps that much more effective.

DOW ADDRESSES BHOPAL OUTRAGE, EXPLAINS POSITION
Company responds to activist concerns with concrete action points

In response to growing public outrage over its handling of the Bhopal
disaster's legacy, Dow Chemical (http://www.dow-chemical.com) has
issued a statement explaining why it is unable to more actively
address the problem.

"We are being portrayed as a heartless giant which doesn't care about
the 20,000 lives lost due to Bhopal over the years," said Dow
President and CEO Michael D. Parker. "But this just isn't true. Many
individuals within Dow feel tremendous sorrow about the Bhopal
disaster, and many individuals within Dow would like the corporation
to admit its responsibility, so that the public can then decide on the
best course of action, as is appropriate in any democracy.

"Unfortunately, we have responsibilities to our shareholders and our
industry colleagues that make action on Bhopal impossible. And being
clear about this has been a very big step."

On December 3, 1984, Union Carbide--now part of Dow--accidentally
killed 5,000 residents of Bhopal, India, when its pesticide plant
sprung a leak.  It abandoned the plant without cleaning it up, and
since then, an estimated 15,000 more people have died from
complications, most resulting from chemicals released into the
groundwater.

Although legal investigations have consistently pinpointed Union
Carbide as culprit, both Union Carbide and Dow have had to publicly
deny these findings. After the accident, Union Carbide compensated
victims' families between US$300 and US$500 per victim.

"We understand the anger and hurt," said Dow Spokesperson Bob Questra.
"But Dow does not and cannot acknowledge responsibility. If we did,
not only would we be required to expend many billions of dollars on
cleanup and compensation--much worse, the public could then point to
Dow as a precedent in other big cases. 'They took responsibility; why
can't you?' Amoco, BP, Shell, and Exxon all have ongoing problems that
would just get much worse. We are unable to set this precedent for
ourselves and the industry, much as we would like to see the issue
resolved in a humane and satisfying way."

Shareholders reacted to the Dow statement with enthusiasm. "I'm happy
that Dow is being clear about its aims," said Panaline Boneril, who
owns 10,000 shares, "because Bhopal is a recurrent problem that's
clogging our value chain and ultimately keeping the share price from
expressing its full potential. Although a real solution is not
immediately possible because of Dow's commitments to the larger
industry issues, there is new hope in management's exceptional new
clarity on the matter."

"It's a slow process," said Questra. "We must learn bit by bit to meet
this challenge head-on. For now, this means acknowledging that much as
it pains us, our prime responsibilities are to the people who own Dow
shares, and to the industry as a whole. We simply cannot do anything
at this moment for the people of Bhopal."


Dow Chemical is a chemical products and services company devoted to
bringing its customers a wide range of chemicals. It furnishes
solutions for the agriculture, electronics, manufacturing, and oil and
gas industries, including well-known products like Styrofoam, DDT, and
Agent Orange, as well as lesser-known brands like Inspire, Retain,
Eliminator, Quash, and Woodstalk. For more on the Bhopal catastrophe,

Have you tried JC and tonic, with a lot of lime?  Not at all bad.

If anyone has a cat who enjoys watching videos
of birds, squirrels and chipmunks flying and
running about in the wild, I have such a video
for sale right now on eBay, from the estate of
the late Lacey A., a prissy Himalayan who
ruled my sister's house before they both met
their early demise.

The server's swamped right now so the site's a little slow, but the
pictures are cool.  They picked the crème de la crème de la crème:

<http://landsat.gsfc.nasa.gov/earthasart/>

Welcome to the Landsat-7 Earth as Art Gallery. Here you can view our planet
through the beautiful images taken by the Landsat-7 satellite. These images
created by the USGS EROS Data Center, introduces the general public to the
Landsat Program administered jointly by USGS and NASA. The Landsat: Earth
as Art exhibit highlights images that were selected on the basis of
aesthetic appeal. These images use the visceral avenue of art to convey the
thrilling perspective of the Earth that Landsat provides to the viewer.

While I'm posting pointers to amazing pictures, I also found this one today:

http://www.chinfo.navy.mil/navpalib/images/sndbarphoto.html

It's a gorgeous picture of an F/A-18 Hornet breaking the sound barrier,
bursting out of a shock-induced cloud of mist.  Shot from an aircraft
carrier by photo officer Ensign John Gay, who really outdid himself with
this one.  Saw a crummy version of this picture on a postcard at the local
airplane museum recently, and serendipitously stumbled onto it today on the
web.  I'm grateful for the much higher-res version.

   Simple Wart Solution

"My son bites his nails and ended up spreading warts to every
one of his fingers. He had 11 on one hand and we tried every
wart remover under the sun, including the liquid and the
expensive band aid wart removers. Well, the other day on the
radio, they talked about using plain old duct tape. So I
decided to try it. We wrapped his fingers up at night and then
took the tape off in the morning. After his baths, we would
rub them with an emery board and wrap them again. Over the
course of two weeks, nearly every one has disappeared. Warts
are very embarrassing for those who have them, and I was
amazed that this worked. Apparently, there is some chemical in
the glue that combats them. You can buy a huge roll of duct
tape for a dollar, much less expensive than wart removers!

proscribing Holiday cards and letters to the troops in the 'Stans as a

>Duct Tape, Goo Gone & OxiClean.....3 Wonders of the World

I'll see your wart remover and raise you a formal dress.  This month's
issue of Costco magazine has a letter from member Neil Barbour, who wrote
in to report that in 1999, his wife Cheri made a dress for her daughter's
winter formal dance out of 150 yards of duct tape from Costco.  No
stitches, just tape, with matching cummerbund and bow tie for her
date.  Small picture included in the magazine. :)

"It's truly amazing how nice it looks.  So nice, in fact, that we were
asked to make a second dress, which was worn to the Emmys."

Interesting. On the radio, the Red Cross was advertising for people to

At least one movie I've been unable to get via NetFlix, is available on
GreenCine: Grey Gardens. Still, I'm only paying 13.95/mo with NetFlix based
on my old arrangement (2 dvds at a time)...and GreenCine is considerably
more. I can probably rent GreenCine from Le Video. I also want to rent
FREAKS after reading the original short it was based on, in ZOETROPE.

The first time I saw this earlobe thingy was on National Geographic. The
next time I saw it, many years later, was in a tattoo magazine.

Soul patches are sexy, elongated lobes are not.

I hope a book is made and LOTS of people buy it for their kids.

One of my all-time favorite films is 12 angry men, now available as a
videorecording. It was made in 1957, stars Henry Fonda, Lee J. Cobb, et
al, is perhaps the best b&w film made in the US. It even observes the
unities (pretty much).

It's also the best film I know on jury process.

I learned a few years ago that it was based on a French film, JUSTICE EST
FAITE. I have this info about it:

>>VJ 7400
>>      France, 1950.
>>      VO FR, cassette :105', N/B.

>>           en vid^Îo :
>>                   au Passage 44, ^È Li^Ïge.

But I have never been able to locate a copy. Anybody know it?

I suddenly remembered an apron a friend of mine made from
duct tape. It was in India, and I think it was done out of
necessity. It did look pretty good. Even had a big blocky
monogram on it, of insulation tape.

Speaking of things like the cute xmas package I got from the Humane

I had kind of wondered about all the stuff they're constantly sending
me.  In addition to the kinds of things I get from lots of
organizations, like calendars and wrapping paper and whatever (no Indian
mocassins in years now), HSUS sends me mugs and t-shirts and watches and
zillions of other gifts.  I think I'm going to stick to ASPCA.  (Local
Humane Societies aren't officially connected with the HSUS, I should
add.  The Oktibbeha County HS is still my main beneficiary post my
death.

That's a good many people.  Are you going to tell us who?  I love turkey
sandwiches, btw (speaking of leftover turkey).  It makes me think that
someday I should try cooking a turkey.  I've never had occasion to do
it.

I don't really remember that much about crashes.  I just remember that
it was lacking lots of things I needed.

After giving a slight hint a couple of weeks ago of returning to its

late last season when I stopped watching it -- trying to be serious but
being basically <lame>.  That thing last night about the priest was sooo

No.  But it's aka "Justice Is Done" for the North American release.

Amazon.fr lists "Justice est faite," but as out-of-stock:
<http://www.amazon.fr/exec/obidos/ASIN/B00004WDSU>.  No luck on eBay.fr,
either in current or completed sales.

Note that a French tape will be in SECAM, not NTSC.

This page: <http://www.dvdenfrancais.com/titres/titres_venise.asp> doesn't
list "Justice est faite" in bold, indicating it's not on DVD.

Is it time again for me to tell my story of successfully piloting a

Banana River and safely into its dock after my date, whose boat it was,
had passed out on the deck?  We had both been drinking Black Russians

It must have been while you were absent that we discussed this.  It was
on Words-L, wasn't it?  This was maybe a month ago, when the
duct-tape/wart thing was in the news.  Maybe it was my lunch friends I
discussed it with.  I tried it for a few days on a wart that suddenly
appeared on my calf a few months ago, but then I kept forgetting to
reapply the duct tape.  Maybe I'll try it again.

I wonder if that's the same person who designed the dress made out of
American Express cards (worn to the Oscars some years ago).

Iirc, this subject header is left over from when I asked how a deadline
can be given to prove you've destroyed something that there is no proof
you've ever had.  I still find it a bit odd that most of the US seems to
find that <logical>.

Who knows what has happened since Pete wrote the above, of course.  I've
been in a  news vacuum since reading the SDN and the online
Clarion-Ledger at about 5 a.m.  I usually try to check cnn.com by this
time of the day/night, but it's been an extremely hectic day.

Whama Bama Thanks Osama
Ananova: "Row erupts over T-shirt showing Bush and Bin Laden in sex act."

Police in Australia have interviewed a market stall owner after complaints he
was selling T-shirts showing Osama bin Laden having sex with George Bush.

The shirts are selling at £8 each on a stall in Brisbane market and are
believed to have been circulating on the internet.

According to The Courier Mail the T-shirts sparked a row between former
army intelligence officer Troy Raymond Ellis and the stall owner.

The seller, who refused to give his name, said the T-shirt was just
another in a line designed to make people laugh and refused to withdraw it
from sale.

etc.

Not everyone else.  Some people are saying that these things happen
regularly -- that they just don't usually get as much publicity.  I'm
skeptical, however.

Well, I don't really think that the ship <outbreaks> are serious
bioterrorism since you'd think serious bioterrorists would want to do
something more impressive than make people vomit and doodoo.  Then

If Abby's died, it's been very recently; there's been no mention in the

My ex wife's cat has this (or very similar) video.  When Gretchen pops the video in
and the music starts, the cat comes running from wherever she is in the house and
plants herself in front of the screen.  I'd like to have a video of the cat watching the
video - she not only follows the action closely with ears and tail and paws, but clearly
has memorized what is coming up next.  It is a riot to watch her.

British author gets bad sex award
http://www.cnn.com/2002/SHOWBIZ/books/12/03/offbeat.bad.sex.award.reut/

Tuesday, December 3, 2002 Posted: 5:01 PM EST (2201 GMT)


LONDON, England (Reuters) -- A sex scene laced with medical jargon has
won
Britain's least coveted literary prize, the annual Bad Sex in Fiction
Prize.

British author Wendy Perriam won with her description of a patient
fantasizing about her foot surgeon in the darkly comic novel "Tread
Softly."

"I'm stunned because this is a book about bunions, panic attacks and
abuses
in old people's homes," Perriam told Reuters. "They are probably the
three
most unsexy subjects you can possibly imagine.

"Taken out of context it sounds crazy -- but she's fantasizing about
this
guy [the surgeon] while making love to her partner."

Judges at the Literary Review magazine, the award's organizer, singled
out
Perriam's description of the surgeon's naked body.

Part of the winning extract reads: "Weirdly, he was clad in pin-stripes
at
the same time as being naked. Pin-stripes were erotic, the uniform of
fathers, two-dimensional fathers.

"The jargon he'd used at the consultation had become bewitching
love-talk:
... dislocation of the second MTPJ ... 'titanium hemi-implant ....
'Yes!'
she whispered back. Dorsal subluxation ... 'flexion deformity of the
first
metatarsal ... 'Oh yes!' she shouted, screwing up her face in
concentration,
tossing back her hair. 'Yes, oh Malcolm, yes!'."

Perriam beat competition from Hollywood actor and author Ethan Hawke and
nine other nominees.

The awards were set up 10 years ago to highlight and discourage "crude,
tasteless and often perfunctory" sex scenes in mainstream books.

Past winners include broadcaster and author Melvyn Bragg, critic and
writer
A.A. Gill and novelist Sebastian Faulks.

    Thus far this morning I've heard "The Christmas Dolly Song" used as
a reverse promotion ("Send us money for charity or we'll play it
again!"),  my favorite, "Mary's Boy Child", and "Grandma Got Runned Over
By A Reindeer" played on the pipes.
This year may prove interesting.

Champagne with a shot of cognac. Some may recall that one was ordered at
Rick's Cafe Americain in "Casablanca."

    Ah, but remember, Rick told Sascha to hold Madeliene's order!  "From
here, to HERE!" (Which didn't keep the Frenchman and the kraut from getting
into it anyway.)  Always thought she was better looking than Ilsa, too, but
that's neither here nor there...

    First World War, hence the name.

Since you asked, let me put a bookmark in your head: I'm working on a

And since neither one is riding at the moment
. . . .?

Must I assume she is the one in the fur hat?

Or do riders wear fur hats?

(How the h*** am I supposed to know?
The only fox I've ever seen has been stealing
chickens on a farm, not running from the
gentry.

And besides, some might say that Bethany
is the fox.

Would you please post the recipe? I adore anything with pomegranates and I
have at least 8 in my crisper.

This cannot be right. I have a picture of two women and later a woman
and a dog (image 97 and 98). Bethany said she is the one not riding.
Neither woman nor dog is riding.

I give up.

All of my four siblings and their three spouses, my parents, my husband, my
nephew, and myself.

I love turkey
>sandwiches, btw (speaking of leftover turkey

I just had my last (and first actually) turkey sandwich today. I froze much
of the turkey in gravy. Also froze stuffing and green bean casserole.

Sender: owner-words-l@LISTSERV.UGA.EDU

Our wonderful friend and local book maven, Martha Fornatale, is
closing her store "The Old Book Shop" in Hillsdale, New Jersey, after
18 glorious years of book dealing and smoozing.

The store which is located in Northeastern New Jersey and about 5
miles south of the New York State border, will be closing around the
first of the new year and Martha is generously offering her current
stock of approximately 8,000 volumes (2/3 hardcover, 1/3 paperback)
at discount

All prices now dropped to 50% all stock off from November 26th-December
14th=
=2E

Martha's cozy little shop is located approximately 45 minutes  (on a
good day)  from mid town Manhattan in New York City .

A trip to our little corner of the Garden State would make a pleasant
weekend jaunt for any of you good folks out there who like great
deals. A trip out this way would also put you in striking distance of
the other wonderful shops located here in Bergen County and just
north of us in Rockland County, New York. A trip into The Big Apple
is definitely something to consider and don't forget those dealers
we've been discussing in the beautiful borough of Brooklyn.

Martha welcomes any inquiries concerning the sale or to get
directions to the shop.

Her address and telephone number follow.

The Book Shop
430 Hillsdale Avenue
Hillsdale, New Jersey 07642

Happy hunting!!!!!

We'd heard back in October that the Avenue Victor Hugo
Bookshop (a longstanding fixture on Newbury Street, Boston)
had lost its tenancy in the building it had occupied for 25 years
and that owner Vince McCaffrey was looking for a new home.

Now he's found one, and the really extraordinary bit of luck is
that this is only a few doors down from the store's old location.
The shop will be on the second floor of the Johnson Paint
Company building located at 353 Newbury Street, and will
include a street-level entrance.

It would be a good thing if you'd just give the correct URL. I have all
kinds of pictures now, and I don't want to go through the whole lot. I
have a woman on a horse and it looks like there are maybe 10-12 pix in
all.

Because the URL didn't fit on one line and you didn't TinyURL it.

Bethany, you are an idiot. Here is the TinyURL:

Yup.  Me too.  The Weather Channel man is on a corner in Charlotte,
NC.  Lots and lots of accidents already on I-77.   I've chipped a lot less
ice off of a windshield since I moved to Maine.  In fact, I've chipped no
ice off of a windshield since I moved to Maine.  Nor have I had to use a
lock deicer on the car.  Low humidity and a heated garage are wonderful.

The 97 fell off of the end of the url if you were just clicking on it.
But it was very simple to add 97 at the end.

You guys are all lacking in insight.  It was obvious to me immediately
which woman was Bethany.  The woman in the fur hat doesn't look anything
like the Bethany we have come to know on words-l.  The fur hat lady's smile
is genuine and not demented.

I got 97, but of course there is no rider. Bethany is playing cute, I
suppose, unable to say, "I am at the left," or "I am at the right." I
spent ten minutes trying to find some picture with a rider and a
non-rider. As I said to Doris, I am tired of playing with it.

Can you not copy more than one line to paste?  I copied the whole url
but managed somehow to let the 97 fall off the end, so I had to add it.
But that was certainly a simple operation.

Surely it was. But it profiteth us nothing, given that we don't know

I especially liked the series of pictures of the dogs, each lifting a leg

Why don't they make and market a simple digital recorder that you could
program like a VCR?  It would have a hard drive that stored about 40 hours
of TV.  Seems like that would be an easily done thing with today's
technology.   For a moment I thought Replay TV was that.  But no, it has
all kinds of features like pausing live TV, skipping commercials, bringing
up all the programming, searching for your favorites, and comes with a one
time activation charge of $250.  Why can't I have something simple like I want?

Bonnie, I have been meaning to compliment you on your list-insults. I
know that you have been working on them, and I think that their quality
has improved. As soon as they are just a little bit better, I will tell
you why the platform is there, what its history is, etc.

Meanwhile. cheers!

The VERY FIRST book that Dr Borkin recommended to me! Me, personally.
And have I read it? No, I don't even know what it looks like.

I did listen to Dr Borkin's other recommendation. I did not become a
librarian.

Now that sounds good!

One of my coworkers today was talking about the song about Domenic the
Christmas Donkey. Have any of you ever heard it? I never have.

I listend to our traditional family album "New England Sleigh Ride" (a Mobil
Oil Special Productions Stereophonic LP by Fleetwood Recording Co.) today.
Ah, such dear schmaltz. Also liestened to some of "Great Songs of Christmas"
(volume 5, I think), the one with Steve and Eydie's "Sleigh Ride". Oh, and
The Roches' "We Three Kings".

        She's being weirdly coy.  She's on the left.  What, aren't
all Americans familiar with the conventions of the hunt?

I'd almost forgotten about your flirtation with a library career.  That

My memory was that one hat was furry and one was felty or whatever.  I'm
not sure which was <glamorous>.

You are assuming that ordinary people know what a hunt shirt is?  I
remember that both of you looked bundled up against the cold day and
that you had on a wide-brimmed hat and the other person a furry hat.  I
did not see that as being rider vs non-rider.

Possibly. Look, Maynor, it's not a flirtation, it's a deep strong love,
OK? Some day I will in fact be a big bad librarian, demolishing old ways
and laying down what amounts to practically a &^%$(!$ PARADIGM. However
Dr Borkin astutely observed that I needed to *get a job* first, which

February!  But I bet you weren't even born when I first started noticing
its Februariness.  It was when I was living in Florida.  I remember
watching it at the house of some friends of a friend somewhere up the
coast -- I'm thinking maybe even as far north as Titusville.  Who were
those people??  Then the next year Chuck and I watched it in Melbourne
-- also in February.  For years after that I noticed that it was always
on tv in February.

Perhaps that's the beginning of a series of posts with less tiresome

It's 35 degrees here. It's not supposed to freeze here, but maybe I

Being the Yankee I am, we have a different idea up here of 'hunt'. Knowing
'the hunt' that Bethany is involved in is that British through the
countryside chasing the fox thing, the tied up white shirt bows had the
right abount of stuffiness to indicate sport participation.

It would be my guess that if not in the present, maybe in the past, the box
the preacher was on might have held the fox.  But I really know nothing of
the sport.

So what were your stumbling blocks at discerning who Bethany was?

I don't care about the conventions of the hunt, Bethany. I started out
caring which one was you, however.

I concede they are not exactly bows, more bunches like an ascot tie.  Maybe
they're even called that.  They do stand out in a number of pictures.

It is midnight.  I am wrung out.  I have been
here for at least two hours.  Finally the game
is over.  I thought it would never end.  As it
went along, for some reason I became a
fiend.  I was all over that board like a 
bunny energizer.  I extended every word
with er or est or ing or ive, or longer stuff.
I made up words and found they were real. 
I used every dirty word I knew and they all 
were accepted. You couldn't trap me. When
I was cornered with 7 red letters I made a word
out of them.  I was thirsty but couldn't leave to
get a drink of water because if I did the tide would
turn. Know what I mean?  Should I start going
to 11-step meetings?  (I'm not good enough
for 12-step)

Anyway I finally crashed, but not until I had
scored 507,560 points and was declared a
Vocabulist.  Now I'm too tired to vocabulate.

I've been around a bit.
I've changed work, I've changed town (no longer Pavia, but Turin) and
I've got married in the meantime...nothing less.
What about you all?

likttle about the hunt?

I can understand how somebody looking at all the picture might discern a
similarity in attire and be able to figure out which of the two women in
that one picture was wearing riding attire.  I need to look at that
picture again.  My memory of it is fading, but I don't remember that it
showed both necks.  Wasn't Bethany turned to the side?  I also didn't
notice anything bowish on the other person.  I remember that they both
had scarves and such, which I assumed had to do with the very cold day.

That's what I don't like about The Game.  It goes on and on and on and

I found that it will accept all kinds of things that Scrabble won't
accept.  But then it won't accept two-letter words, which Scrabble will.

        LOL.  Fox hunting is alive and well in your very own Rhode
Island, Terry.

        Commonly, somebody lays down scent nowadays -- there is no
actual fox.  I don't know the case in Bethany's hunt, however.

        Probably not.  Get that sort of thing all the time.
Shockingly, most students don't like English. My standard
answer is "not relevant."

        I've noticed a window when kids are capable of decent poetry
without a lot of effort -- I wonder if it is a language
development thing -- but once you're an adult it takes a lot
more effort. I squandered my youth -- never wrote anything
creative.  I didn't start until my mid-20's.

A Norton box popped up on my screen this morning saying that my
antivirus subscription would expire in thirty days.  Not wanting to deal
with renewing right now, I clicked on "do it later."  But I found this
interesting, especially given our recent discussion.  This is the first
time I've had such an experience.  Apparently it's free for only the
first year now -- thirty days from now will be about a year from when I
bought this Norton.  My previous Nortons didn't expire like that,
though.  The free updating seemed to last forever.

You always wonderabout the necessity of snow days in Yankeeland.
Something about being used to the snow. Does that sound right?

Anyway, it's here. 3 inches or so already, with more on the way.

>Sounds Portuguese. What is it?

Good guess. It's Brazilian. Main ingredients are cachaca, lime juice
and pulverized lime. It's less sweet than mojito and served in a short

Yikes! I go ages without alcohol and sometimes the first drink after

Is there fox hunting in Maine?   It's hard to imagine.  Well, maybe down
there in Upper Massachusetts where paul kocik lives.   I wondered what ever

Who could forget the lovely Lucia, from Pavia.  Congratulations on the
marriage.  I hope you married a wonderful man, worthy of your wit and
beauty.  Is he the reason why you moved away from Pavia?

Yesy and yes.
I must say he's a really wonderful person, or I woudn't have moved from
my town.
Now I live in Turin and this city, even if verybeautiful, is very
different from my own: much larger, more chaotic and much more polluted.
A part from all that I'm happy here and I'm just 140 km from home, so I
can go back whenever I want.

Yes, that sounds like something we've discussed before.  I thought that

One of my friends went to "bar-tending school" when he was laid off last
year. He was obsessed with making the perfect apple martini and I was
often the guinea pig. It's nice on an occasional night out.

Yes, I love the fresh mint and the way they look floating in the tall glass.
So beautiful and cool. Mojitos are perfect for hot lazy August afternoons.
hmm, or July - thinking of Acadiafest ...

Apparently it's been 13 years since we had a big snow storm this early in
the
winter. Looks like we'll end up with 6-8 inches. It's no blizzard of the
century
(remember that?) but I'll take it.

Wonder if Home Depot delivers snow shovels - can't find mine.

Aha.  This is what I've been asking about.  I can't figure out
how people get free updates.  I keep getting notified I must
renew my subscription to get a live update.

It's happening here. I thought it would not come this far north, judging
from the weather map. Crap. I really need to go to the store for my
cupboard is nearly bare.

My oxygen concentrator machine died in the night. I am now on the
emergency big actual oxygen tank. Reinforcements on the way. But I had
such a time -- awakened by the screeching warning alarm at about 5.
Didn't know what it was, because I've never heard it before. Finally
realized. Came to dining room where emergency tank is located, but by
then was puffing because I'd been without oxy for who knows how long.
Had the emergency tank all ready to go a couple of weeks ago when we
were threatened with the possibility of a poweor loss, but this morning
I found that my tidy cleaning lady had disconnected it. Breathing
getting harder. Got my portable oxygen tank and tried to untangle the
cord that was wound up for the big tank. Learned that it was all
tangled. Went back to living/bedroom and got tether from concentrator
and hooked that up onto tank. Man! I was so like gasping. But I endured
for another day, or at least so far.

Wow, Alyce, glad you're okay. Hope the neighbor kid (or his dad) will
help with emergency supplies. How bad is the situation? Do you have
anything at home?

Reading this, I find myself breathing for you.
I hope you'll be all right there and don't get
snowed in.  Do you have plans in place for
help if both oxygen units are unusable for
any reason?

True, but then what are some of the reasons for the A? We used to laugh
at this sort of thing, we thought it was "typically American"--do some
bizarre crap on the assignment or test, get an A.

It is not an emergency, just an inconvenience. I hesitate to drive in
the snow. Am getting old-ladyish cautious. We have had about an inch of
snow--it is supposed to be an inch an hour till this afternoon sometime.
Four-six inches total. I can't go out in any case till the oxygen guy
and Meals on Wheels come. Yes, Reilly will shovel.
As for the larger: Meals on Wheels will come, presumably, and I have a
Stouffer's cheese rarebit in the freezer. That is the last frozen meal
from my latest shopping foray two weeks ago. Had planned to do a big buy
today. Also have two cans of tuna, eight slices of bread, lots of peanut
butter, four Hershey bars, a can of cashews, three slices of bacon, one
egg, half a bag of salad greens, two packs of ramen, one hot dog, two
cans of some kind of soup, a hunk of cheddar and another hunk of some
other kind of cheese (Dutch and delicious, but I don't know its
name--not Edam) sent to me by a friendly bookseller, together with some
stone wheat crackers. Plenty of dog food. So, I won't starve by any
means (nor will Spike), and I am sure I can go out tomorrow. I am just
annoyed at having to change my plans.

Note to Bethany: I allowed a neighbor to drive me to the pulmonologist
yesterday. I did not ask, but she offered, and I said OK. Lungs are
clear. She ordered three blood samples, one for Lyme disease and two
others I don't know. Have to get a chest X-ray, but that is a regular
annual event. She says to eat more, four-five times a day, because
despite my best efforts I am now at 99. So now I am going to treat food
like medicine. Cram it down at frequent intervals. Bleh. Have had 420
calories so far--one Ensure Plus, one square Hershey's almong bar. Am on
the way to have a sugar sandwich.

Well, I usually have 3-4 portable oxy tanks good for 3-4 hours each,
although today it happens that I have only half of one. Was going to
order more today. If all failed, I'd dial 911, I guess, but that is
unlikely. I will just have to tell the cleaning lady not to mess with
the emergency tank. She probably thought she was being tidy, picking up
the hose and putting it aside on the table nearby, and not realizing
that she had messed it up in so doing.

I believe this is not a hoax warning.

Those cute little electronic greeting cards you occasionally get from
friends may be a real problem.  The ones I'm speaking of are those where
there's a link that says "[Some Name] has sent you a greeting card.  Go
here to get your greeting card". There's a new card company called
"FriendGreetings.com".

When you get a card notification from them and click on the link, it
will
take you to their site.  You will be notified that you have to install
an
ActiveX control in order to view the card.  When you begin to install,
the
first thing that pops up is what is known as a "EULA" (End User License
Agreement).

It is very long, and you will not read it.  They're counting on that.
When
you scroll to the bottom of it and click "Accept," you have agreed to
the
terms of the EULA. Part of what you will have agreed to is to have
monitoring/spyware software installed on your computer which will
periodically report a vast array of data back to the card company.

The other part that you've agreed to is to have the software send mail
to
EVERY SINGLE ADDRESS IN YOUR ADDRESS BOOK. In short, you've voluntarily
agreed to install a virus-type product on your machine.

This is not a good thing. See:
http://news.zdnet.co.uk/story/0,,t269-s2124528,00.html for details.
Since
there is no virus in the email, and since you're VOLUNTARILY agreeing to
install the ActiveX component, VIRUS CHECKERS WILL NOT CATCH THIS.

Excellent. My moher has been through the food as medicine routine for two
years - more difficult because she has no teeth. She takes in lots of
Ensure and similar producs, eats soup, to which she adds cheese, etc. I
will buy eggnog for her this week. One local brand is quite good - no
booze added for her, of course. She has gained 4 lbs. in recent weeks.

Have you tried banana and peanut butter sandwiches yet? Or oatmeal with
cream or butter? I eat mine with skim milk, a tiny smidgen of butter for
flavor, and a few raisins. It is excellent with cream.

This is from a discussion on another mailing list:

"If a child says: "I want a banana" we all assume that he knows what
he's talking about. If a chimpanzee says the same thing, people ask:
"Yes, but does he have a theory of mind?" "

Good grief.  Would anybody really go that far -- installing something
said to be needed for viewing a greeting card?

I get my hair cut on Newbury street. There are plenty of stores for rent up
and down the once jam packed lane. Hairdressers, clothing stores,
boutiques, they're all going out of business. Even the high end places
(where I never shopped and now can't remember the names) are gone.

It was my first real sign the economy had tanked. In the nearly ten years
I've lived in boston I've never seen and empty store front on Newbury street.

It's been so cold here my windshield wiper fluid is coming out as slush.
The fluid isn't frozen in it's container but it is frozen in the lead
lines. This afternoon's mess should be wet enough that I won't need fluid
to keep the windshield clear. I think patience and careful driving are all
I need to get home.

I don't know when it was on but I do remember that it was once a year and
it wasn't Thanksgiving night.

It also had to be on a Friday or Saturday (most likely Saturday) night
because I remember watching it at my grandparents house. That's where I
spent my weekends while my mom worked her second job as a waitress.

Does anybody still broadcast those Christmas perennials of a
slightly older generation: The Little Match Girl and Amahl and the
Night Visitors?

Ah, Amahl.  This is the first year in several (I forget exactly how many) that Open
Hand Theater is not performing Amahl.  The story is way too predictable and way
too sappy, but I have a <history> with it and so I love it.  In our version, done with
live singers and puppetry, I puppeteered the deaf king -  a giant puppet attached to a
backpack, a mechanism strapped to my head that turns the puppet's head, arms on
sticks and a thumb trigger for the puppet's mouth.  The thing waeighs 60 pounds
and is very cumbersome, but I always loved doing it and miss it a lot this year.

This is partly landlord greed, I think. THe Victor Hugo rent was to be
nearly doubled, and so they thought they'd close rather than pay. Of
course the second floor shop will not get the street traffic now, but
the tried and true customers will find it. This happened in London in
Charing Cross Road where all the bookstores clustered. The rents were
raised obscenely, and only a few remain.

Sorry, but oatmeal is out. And raisins. There are limits. When I get to
the store I plan to get some frozen waffles. I can put lots of butter
and pure maple syrup on those babies. Yum.

The worm preys on people who don't know what's going on, and who will click
"OK" buttons to get dialog boxes to go away.

This came into my mailbox, and I thought some of you might be interested.

The Linguistic Data Consortium at the University of Pennsylvania
(www.ldc.upenn.edu) needs participants for FISHER, a new telephone
speech study to be conducted in the Early Winter 2002-2003.  In
contrast to prior regional studies (Switchboard), FISHER will be
national (North America).  The FISHER project will be undertaken to
support linguistic research, technology development and education.
All calls will be recorded for these purposes.  Particpant Identities
will be kept strictly confidential and not released with the data.

FISHER participants will take part in 1 to 3 telephone calls talking
to other participants on suggested topics for ten minutes.  FISHER
topics can be found at the URL below:

http://www.ldc.upenn.edu/Projects/EARS/Fisher/topics.html

A robot operator will initiate all calls. Particpants need only answer
their phones at the time they specify during the registration process.

Participants will be compensated $10 per call.  In addition, for each
call made, participants will be eligble for 1 chance at (3) $1000.00
lottery prizes.

To register for this study please see the following page:

http://www.ldc.upenn.edu/Projects/EARS/Fisher/intro.html

or call 1 800 380 PENN, to register and for more information

Sincerely,

Dr. David Miller
FISHER Project Manager

353,000+. We know there are at least 19 levels from the bookseller who

I went up another level today. I'm done playing for the day as I have real

I'm surprised they're raising the rents at all with all the vacancies. I'm
also surprised the shop wasn't able to relocate to a first floor shop as I
know several are currently unoccupied.

>From a WSJ article on "Perk for Jobless Yuppies":

"Some out-of-work professionals have become especially adept at taking
advantage of unemployment specials. Ellen Luttrell of Menlo Park,
Calif., voluntarily left her job as a marketing consultant in late
2000 to do freelance work, but she is now looking for a full-time
job. She recently heard from a friend that AT&T Wireless was offering
free cellphones to certain customers to keep them from ending their
phone service. Ms. Luttrell quickly called the wireless carrier and
proclaimed: "I'm unemployed. Make me happy."
[image]

Over the course of an hour and a half, Ms. Luttrell haggled and argued
as she was switched to eight different AT&T Wireless
representatives. Playing the sympathy card ultimately worked: In the
end, she says she acquired a free cellphone and more than $400 in
service credits.

The ploy succeeded so well that Ms. Luttrell began announcing she was
jobless at almost every commercial juncture. When she sent in her car
to be checked recently, her out-of-work lament got the maintenance
bill reduced to $25 from $55. And when shopping at San Francisco's
Sports Basement store several months ago, the saleswoman gave
Ms. Luttrell a 20% discount on a pair of $130 shoes. "If you don't
ask, you're not going to get," says the 39-year-old Ms. Luttrell." "

Oh, okay. I love oatmeal - it is my favorite breakfast. I could eat it

Meanwhile, I chickened out and put the sorrel, arugula, bok choy, 2
heads of lettuce, thyme, oregano, and dill in pots. I am so damned
spoiled, I don't want to do without...

I found (the hard way) that it's best to go slow.
I made a rule that I will not make a word with
less than 4 letters, no matter how tempting,
unless it's the absolutely last resort.  I also do
not click on a word until I am convinced there
is not a better version of it lurking there somewhere.

Did you get the Oxy concentrator delivered? How many big canisters do
you have on hand? Did he bring more of the little canisters?  Will the
half canister be enough for a trip to the store?  As you stock the food
pantry, restock the OXY cabinet too.


Sly
who has also heard that ominous concentrator alarm and was slow to
figure out what it was.
(In fact Keisha figured it out first and woke me up.  She's become a
good monitor of my breathing sounds.  If I begin to wheeze, she wakes me
up.  She also wakes me if I'm still asleep when it's time for a
breathing treatment.  She's a good nurse. .

Turin is the home of Fiat and they say it's a misterious town, a magic town, they also

There're many more problems with fiat than with magic right now.

Gotta love Adam Sandler's Hanukkah Song. Love how he rhymes "colonica" with
"long johnica".

We were sent home yesterday at noon. I had been over at the hospital all
morning working with some Residents. This turned out to be a good day to
figure out how to navigate the underground tunnel system from the hospital
to the college.

The roads weren't too bad, my little Hyundai did just fine. By the time I
reached home we had about six inches and I did a lot of wheel spinning
trying to get up the hill which leads into my street. It is indeed a lovely
winter wonderland. We weren't supposed to get as much as we did -- we ended
with probably 7-8 inches total. I settled in and made a huge batch of
Tortilla Soup from my Thanksgiving turkey stock. Needed to borrow tortillas
from the neighbor, so went over with a bottle of Bailey's and warmed us up.
It was a nice day. I am with Bonnie when it comes to snow. Love it.

I decided that features matter to me, so I have ordered (tax-free with
free shipping) a Samsung DVD-P721M Progressive-Scan DVD Player from
amazon. When I selected it yesterday, the price was 169.94, when I logged
in today, it had dropped to 149.94. The prog-scan feature works only with
HDTV, but the other features work with older tvs. - I do not know if I
have HDTV, but I am covered either way now and also for some time in the
future - I think!

Yes. My insurance does not cover oxy, so I have to pay $150/month for
it. I own the broken one. They've taken that away to see if it can be
repaired, which I hope will be the case...and soon.

I always have just the one. It has about 8-9 hours' worth left in it.

Yes -- I get them in lots of six. I was just due for a delivery, as it
happened.

Spike is not a trained nurse. He slept through the whole incident.

Unless you paid thousands for the TV, you don't have an HDTV.

1996? Of course -- I was with Wordslers (Emily and Sharon) that day. Two of
the things I remember most: the three of us holding hands walking down the
steps of the Metropolitan Museum of Art, then taking the bus to dine at
Virgil's; and having to actually climb out of the subway, as the stairway to
the street had been almost entirely snowed over.

Maybe they should check to see how many
employees are named Mohammed.

Seriously, I think our epidemiologist should
duck back in here to give us his thoughts on
this plague of the high seas.

Thanks, alec. That review pretty much matches what amazon reviewers
said. Re HDTV - I didn't figure I owned one - but maybe I will. I wanted a
dvd player that would suit me for several years. Now I will have to figure
out how to get everything I own hooked up - I have never hooked up my
speakers.

Haven't paid attention to the details beyond knowing of sickness, but if
the ships all leave from the same port, they probably are getting some
supplies from a common source--could be fuel or vegetables or paper
towels or mail for the crew, or Bon Voyage fruit baskets for the
passengers from their friends at home. In any case, the same delivery
people might have rightful access to all the ships. Easy to slip a virus
or two aboard, I should think.

We were at Sam's Club in Bangor yesterday.  I saw a rather neat flat
screen, 20 inch TV that had both a VCR and a DVD built in.  It was priced
around $350.  It even looked like Natalie might be able to get it into her
car to drive it home.

The problem is bacterial; they are cleaning it by doing the sort of
disinfecting they probably should be doing all along.

Try again. It is viral, not bacterial at all. It is a Norwalk type virus.

Be prepared!


http://www.raptureletters.com/

After the rapture, there will be a lot of speculation as to why millions
of people have just disappeared. Unfortunately, after the rapture, only
non believers will be left to come up with answers. You probably have
family and friends that you have witnessed to and they just won't
listen. After the rapture they probably will, but who will tell them?

We have written a computer program to do just that. It will send an
Electronic Message (e-mail) to whomever you want after the rapture has
taken place, and you and I have been taken to heaven.

If you wish to do something now that will help your unbelieving friends
and family after the rapture, you need to add those persons email
address to our database. Their names will be stored indefinitely and a
letter will be sent out to each of them on the first Friday after the
rapture. Then they will receive another letter every friday after that.

I plead excruciating pain. I fell at Ligniere's this morning, and
wrecked my neck/shoulder/elbow. I am an amazing pain wimp.

You are never wrong.  If you are wrong, you have an excuse that we are all

Hm. We live in different worlds, I guess. In my world, I am often
wrong. I do like to understand where my wrongness stems from; perhaps
that what you view as an excuse.

> I'm sorry that you hurt yourself though.  Can you sue?

Oh, yes, that would improve my relationship immeasurably, I'm sure.

I'm waiting for my personal body workers to come over and yank on my
arm. I think that's all it needs. No x-rays, TYVM.

This no-health-insurance stuff stinks.

Diagnostic x-rays never cured anyone.

For sure!  I have a friend who works minimally just to have health
insurance.  Employers are paying less and less, however, and it may not be
a retirement benefit in the future which really stinks.

Today is St. Nicholas Day.  My childhood friend, Rose Ann, and I remember
very fondly how our families celebrated this day.  We both came from German
families.  We lived three houses apart.  On St. Nicholas evening our
fathers would sneak out of the house on some pretense while our mothers
occupied the children in the kitchen, toward the back of the house.  All of
a sudden there would be a loud rap on the front door, it would open, and a
burlap bag of goodies would be tossed in the door.  There were always
peanuts in the shell and tangerines.  I guess there was candy also.  But
Rose Ann and I mostly remember the tangerines which were a huge treat.

Today the UPS truck driver made a large thump on my front door, opened the
screen door, and placed a package against the front door.  It was a St.
Nicholas present from Rose Ann.  Marked fragile.  Carefully packed.  It's a
sheet of homemade shortbread cookie with a white and brown frosting grid
upon which the words Happy    Saint    Nicks  intersect as they would on a
Scrabble board!

It's a blessing to have such a good friend.  This stuff really tastes good too.

What a sweet (n.p.i.) story.
St Nicholas Day always makes me think of the Dutch tradition of getting your initials
in chocolate.  When I was a kid we were introduced to this tradition by the Dutch
exchange student who lived with us.  I can remember thinking "I'm glad my name
doesn't begin with a thin letter."

I love stories like this.

Here's a story from me, and I hope I can relate it so
it's not too complicated.

A few weeks ago we visited friends in Colorado.
One night over dinner they told us of going to a
World War II officer's reunion recently and of an old friend
they met there.  The friend told them that during the war he
had been stationed for a time in S. C. Iowa and had met
and fallen in love with a girl named Helen F.  Realizing
that she was Jewish and he was not, he realized it would
never work and had to break it off, but to this day he
wonders whatever happened to Helen F.

I was stunned for a moment, and then I told my story.

At about that same time during WWII I lived in S. C.
Iowa and was dating a serviceman, Marty R., from New
England.  One night Marty told me that he was in love with
me but he knew that his Jewish parents would never accept
me as a daughter-in-law and therefore he would not be
calling me again.

A few months later he did call me, however, to invite me
to his wedding.  He said he was attracted to his bride
because she looked and moved and talked like me, and
he wanted more than anything for me to be at his wedding.

It was in a downtown hotel, a very nice wedding, and after
the ceremony and the smashing of the goblet, etc., I went
through the line and the groom gave me a farewell kiss
and introduced me to his bride . . .  Helen F.

And so we sat in Colorado over our wine glasses and
marveled at how lives intermingle in the mix of a long life.
Colonel M is going to enclose a note in his Xmas card to
the officer friend and tell him what happened to Helen.

                        - D. M.

can't afford a pair of $130 sneakers and I know you just gave some bitch
who's working the system a break on her new dogs so you can find it in your
heart to cut me a little as I head to the gym to work off the day's stress?

>Small world indeed!  Now there is a lot of marrying people out of the faith
>it seems.

Like this shiksa here.

Anyway, my closest story to Doris's (not quite as romantic) is:

When I was sixteen (or so), while down the shore for a couple of days with
my two best friends, in the very very small seaside town of Strathmere, NJ
(we're talking to this day undisclosed location -- I'm pretty sure that no
one here has ever heard of it), I met, after several too many beers, a nice
boy named Michael. We kissed a bit, surely a bit too much, too passionately.
He professed his love to me, we were sad when we retreated to our separate
accommodations that night. He lived on the southwest side of Philly, me to
the northeast, we lamented the distance.

In the morning I heard Michael was looking for me, he was leaving that day
and wanted to say goodbye before he returned home for the start of the new
school year. I was very embarrassed for my behavior of the night before, as
I really had been very drunk. I wasn't sure I'd recognize Michael if I
stumbled upon him. We never said goodbye that day. I think I as much as hid
out. Surely we didn't even know each other's last names.

Fast forward ten years, I'd been working at the library at Drexel University
for a couple of months, supervising a staff of eight circulation clerks,
mostly students getting their various degrees, like me, and taking advantage
of the tuition reimbursement. We're outside during a fire drill, chatting
away, when the topic of old reliable t-shirts (the ones you just can't seem
to throw out) comes up. One of my very favorite guys on the staff says, "I
still have this grungy old 'Where the hell is Strathmere?' t-shirt from when
I was like 12." At which I said, "Strathmere?! I used to go to Strathmere!"
And that was it -- we looked at each other, he fell back stunned on the car
we were standing next to. Oh. My. God.

It was Michael. And I'd been working with him for several months at that
point. His wedding was just weeks away. I wondered at the time what would
have happened had he not been engaged.

Not only do I find myself on a list of computer game junkies, now I
discover that you are a bunch of hopeless romantics.   I need to find

I went the extra step to check the price and,
wouldn't you know, it's $19.95, the same price
as every TV gimmick in the world.

I forgot to report that my $48 dvd player will indeed play that Japanese
movie.  (I realize that isn't a <feature> of my dvd player -- that it
presumably has something to do with the disc itself.)  I haven't watched
the movie yet but plan to.  I watched the first five minutes or so of it
and was impressed with how terrible it is -- a Japanese murder mystery
about a man whose ear is cut off, with both English and Chinese
subtitles.

Meanwhile I looked today at a 35" Sony tv on sale for half price while I
was waiting for the cd-player to be put into my car.  I'm glad I went on
and did the cd thing.  I'm content with PRM most of the time, but I was
in the mood to hear The Three Tenors singing xmas music, which I did
after I got home and got the cd from inside the house and listened while
going to visit my mother and then while taking the old flannel sheets to
the shelter to keep the doggies warm.  I didn't buy the tv, btw.  Even
if they could've fit it into my car, which I'm not sure they could've, I
wouldn't have been able to get it out of the car upon getting home.

Today has been eventful.  I ate Japanese food right after getting the
cd-player inserted.  I noticed a restaurant named Little Tokyo not far
from the car-cd place, so I ate lunch there.  I'm not a big fan of
Japanese food actually, but I was in the mood for it.  It made the trip
to Columbus more interesting.  Problem is that when I was trying to tell
the waitress that the food had been delicious, even getting my adjective
tense thing (I've forgotten what you call it) right, I discovered that
she and most of the other employees are Chinese and don't speak
Japanese.

That's way too small for my tv-viewing situation.  My 27" was fine in
the little room in my old house, but I'd really rather have a bigger
screen now.  And yes -- I would have no problem transporting a 20".  I
managed to transport my 27".

I wish my current <maximal> working included stuff like that, but it
doesn't.  Technically my position is Lecturer, which means no fringe
benefits.  And I didn't realize anybody ever had health insurance as a

of the same group plan, but I have to pay for 100% of the premium now
that I'm retired.)

Is Plato something you believe in?  Like Santa Claus and the Easter
Bunny?   In any case, I fail to see the relevance of Plato's philosophy to

hopelessly romantic to think that reality is something that we see only
dimly as shadows on a cave wall.

No, you were the one who used the word romantic.  Karen talked about
foreshadowings.  Like this world is a foreshadowing.  Do you believe in
Donne?  As in "If ever any beauty I did see,/Which I desired and got,
twas but a dream of thee"?

What I've been wondering about is how she managed to have UPS deliver

But I wrote the story of my day before reading new mail and thus before
knowing that we were into a great-story day!  I was not entering that
competition!  I have no good stories to enter.  I think I've already
told the smallish-world story of the second cousin who died recently and
how she married the one non-UT person I had known in Knoxville.  That's
about it for me and stories of interesting coincidences.

Btw, the reason I was running to Columbus and getting a cd-player and
eating Japanese food on a weekday was that classes ended yesterday and
exams started today.  And my first exam is Monday.  And I've finished
all pre-exam paper-grading.  I'm very seriously considering going to
Jackson tomorrow to the wonderful crafts fair where I bought the
dulcimer by RRB&SIL have no doubt lost and bought some earrings I still
adore.  I've been to it only a couple of times before but always think
about going.  Some years I've had no choice about missing it because
I've had to give an exam on the first Saturday in December, when this
event occurs.

It's hard doing a one-day trip at this time of year when it gets dark so
early, meaning (since I'm blind at night) that I have to head home no
later than 3:00.  But I'm leaning right now toward doing it.  I'm way
behind my usual schedule of xmas shopping.  I did take today some gifts
for my mother to be given by Santa Claus at a Dec. 23 party.  Today was
supposedly the deadline for family members to get the gifts there,
although the social director or whatever her title is told me that I
didn't need to worry about the deadline since I'm there everyday -- that
it was for people who live out of town or never visit.  I think the idea
was that if somebody didn't get any presents from family or friends,
they'd try to come up with something for that person.

I got a nice note from her widower saying something about her courage
and strength during her long and progressive illness.  So apparently
this wasn't sudden.  But I still don't know what it was.

> Btw, the reason I was running to Columbus and getting a cd-player and

I had thought it was Pioneer but noticed later it says Premiere.  Is
that ok?  I did great research before buying the Alpine for my Civic
back a number of years ago, but this time I didn't do research.  I think
I'm happy with the choice, though.  It's a single-cd player since I've
concluded after two previous cars with cd-changers, one in the trunk and
one in the dash, that I definitely prefer a trunk cd-changer to a dash
cd-changer and that my top choice is a single-cd player.  Things I like
about the one I chose are that it has a knob for adjusting the volume
(rather than a button) and the insert-cd place is behind a closed door,
which means fewer doghairs being sucked into the player.

I really should make Spencer stay in the back seat.  That would make
many things simpler.  I've got to pick somebody up to go to a concert
one night next week and will have to vacuum my passenger seat before
doing so.  And today when Spencer and I were on our way to the nursing
home, he in his usual clumsy style fell into the bag of xmas presents on
the front floor.  He's amazingly clumsy.  He lurches and falls and
bumbles around constantly.

        I'm officially done with student teaching as of today.  I
handed everything in, filled out all paperwork, have been
fingerprinted, DONE.

        Of course, I still have a few courses to finish for my M.Ed.,
and I found out today that one extra course will give me a
graduate certificate in the teaching of writing (that would
look pretty good as a credential).  I've already done most
of the course work for that.

        Well, I have to figure out how to teach Tale of Two Cities
starting Monday.

        Did it miss that corner of the state?  We got three inches.
It hit during rush hour and lots of us were late for work.
Someone had opened up my room, and my goofball students had
made up a journal assignment, put it up on the board, and
were writing and talking in their work groups when I walked
in.  Well, except for John, who had his shoes off and was
stretched out on the floor sleeping.  Walking around school
in just his socks is his current political statement.

Fingerprinting occurs at the end of student teaching?  That does make
sense.  I was fingerprinted before starting my first teaching job but
not after finishing student teaching.  I guess it would make the hiring
of people simpler if the fingerprinting was done pre-hiring rather than
post-hiring.  Like if my fingerprints had showed me to be <bad>, it
would have been a hassle for the school system to dump me and hire
somebody else.

Sounds like the best of times and the worst of times.  Have fun.

        As part of the certification process -- the university
recommends you to the state for P1 certification.  I was
fingerprinted by WG, too, because I've lived out of state.

        Aw, John's an OK kid.  I like that group.  Most of them have

You're speaking cryptically.  What is P1 certification?  And what is
WG?  Probably I should figure these things out.  My brain has died
totally tonight.  Re the certification process, that's what my first
fingerprinting was about, now that I think about it.  It's just that it
wasn't required for the Mississippi certificate that I got automatically
but never used.  It was required for the Florida certificate for my
first teaching job.  But I had the fingerprinting done at the Jackson
Police Department for sending to Florida.  My only other fingerprinting
was done in Japan, as a requirement for my alien card.

It must be Friday night.  My Norton is chugging away.  And naturally I
think of Bonniemae when it kicks in.  And this reminds me that I said
"wait until later" for that virus update thing, but no box has hopped
onto my screen again asking whether I'm in the mood now.  Surely it
will.  Surely I won't have to exert effort to tell it yes to paying for
the continued service.

It's been sunny and coldish here also.  I just looked at wunderground to
see what our high today was, but I realized that it won't tell that.
That's annoying.  It tells the current temperature (28) and yesterday's
high (45) but not today's high.

I have to settle for New Year's.  I've been up to a whole bunch of
nothing and seeing them all at New Year's is better than nothing.

I thought it might be, but it turns out that I might have landed on
the insertion point for the bicep, and once she released that, it was
much better. I rehurt it in the car on the way to dinner, but it seems
to be fine, now. Aleve is great stuff.

So what? At least you have access to it. *That* is the benefit.

My friend with Huskies today told me that one of them can turn off the
light! Also, they took a bowl of soup off the counter and put it on
the floor next to their food bowl without spilling a drop.

So what what?  I don't get your so what.  Somebody mentioned having
health insurance as a retirement benefit -- with the implication being
that it was sort of like you were still working.  I said I hadn't
realized that people had that benefit, though I have the benefit of
being able to remain part of the group plan.  See above for my use of
the word "benefit" -- i.e., what does your "*That* is a benefit" mean?
I said it was a benefit because I think it may be slightly cheaper than
non-group policies.  I pay only about $300 a month for my insurance.
It's not very good insurance -- very high deductible (i.e., it doesn't
cover anything for me in a regular year -- I pay 100% of all medical
costs -- but it would pay a percentage if I ended up with major medical
bills), not of much use out of state, etc. etc., but I think that's
somewhat cheaper than an ordinary individual policy.

So, as I said, I don't understand what your "so what" means.

Duh.  That is why I used the word "benefit" to describe it.

Iirc, nobody suggested that you did.  We weren't talking about you at
the moment.  We were talking about *retired people*.

You're either crazy or you can't read or both.  We were discussing
medical insurance for retired people.  I said I have to pay for mine but
do have the *BENEFIT* of staying in the same group.  Who cares that
Betty has a friend who went back to work because of insurance?  Who
cares that you do or don't have a job?  Who cares about anything we
discuss on this list?

I don't even know which names are higher than others.  I didn't notice
the numbers at first but do now because I have a new rule now to end a
game.  I quit when it reaches 300,000.  I did hit Supreme Archivist
before I started that rule, but now it says something like Grand
Archivist or maybe Master Archivist -- something like that.  It's a nice
way to give the game an end.  (I'm not letting myself play very often
anyway, though, because it eats up too much time even stopping at
300,000.)

If Natalie is paying $300 a month to be in her group plan, that's not much
of a benefit.  I pay $210 for an individual policy.  Clyde gets a break on
February 1st.  He is old enough for Medicare.  The supplemental policy is
only around $110 a month.  Plus the $58 they will withhold from his SS
check.  Best thing is things will actually be covered rather than the $5000
deductible policies we each have now.

  Maybe higher.  I haven't kept track of the levels.  The next level is
Wordhoarder (at least, I don't think there is another between it and SA),
then Lexographer.  It seems that the higher levels have a greater span of
scores, i.e., it looks like it takes about 100K to move out of SA, then
another 100K or so to reach Lexographer---which also seems to have a broad
span.

She's a smoker, so her rates would be higher.

        Certification requirements are changing in most of the
states.  They're not just issued automatically for life
nowadays.  You have to take classes and stuff to get them
renewed.  And then there's national certification, which
I'll probably do in 5 years when I'm eligible.

        When we were carrying our own insurance, I think it was $600
for our family policy. Right now, Ana is carried on Kevin's
policy at SBC, and I think it costs us $60/month for her.

        My dad gets full medical coverage without contributing
through his pension, but I think that's unusual.

That fits between Wordhoarder and Lexographer---and fairly close to the

That is impressive. I just made Wordhoarder with 392,300 and then those
red guys ganged up on me all at once.
I think I was in level 13. I do remember completing 12.

I doubt that. I never was asked if I smoked or not. I just don't think
that happens. Maybe with life insurance, but not medical. The insurance
companies factor smokers' statistics into the pot, I do believe.

Nor were we asked in the case of health insurance.  I do know a couple who
recently got long term care insurance.   They were asked and the husband
was mightily pissed when the wife admitted that she smokes "on occasion."

That surprises me, given the known cost of 'smoking related illness'.

        Maybe after a certain age it averages out or something.  I
was asked when we had a private policy.  Got kicked off when
my TB test came up positive.

I didn't realize that it wasn't a retirement benefit for most
people.  Larry's folks get most of it covered and other people I know
retired from the university system here and it's a covered benefit,
however, the contribution is going up from the retiree.    It's only
recently that I have had to pay about $10 a month to cover both of us.  I
had full family plan almost entirely covered all the time we carried the
children. Things are definitely changing.

Do we talk about this every year?  CRAFT is a wonderful thing.

My FIL used to be bugged to join the Pearl Harbor Survivor's
organization.  I remember him saying something like "Why do I want to join
a group with declining membership?"  I thought that was a strange
attitude.  He is more interested now that he is much older.

I don't think you've ever mentioned that he is a PH survivor.

His brother that he didn't know about was there, too.  (Same father
different mothers.) They didn't find out about each other until after
retirement age.

        Yeah.  SBC used to pay everything for full family coverage,
but they changed that this year.  The school district I work
for pays nothing for dependents... I'd have to pay the full
premium if I carried anybody.  Missouri Teachers Retirement
doesn't cover medical insurance premiums; you're just
permitted to remain in the plan.  Our policy isn't that great.

Ok. I wouldn't want to argue the point. Let's ask Natalie if the
insurance people ever asked if she smokes.

I enjoyed the drive to Jackson this morning, listening to xmas cd's and
looking at the pretty white frost.  We haven't had any snow -- no road
problems -- just heavy frost on the fields beside the roads.  The crafts
festival was full of beautiful stuff, but I didn't buy anything.  I left
pretty quickly, knowing that I lots to accomplish and that I needed to
leave Jackson no later than 3:00 to get home before real darkness set
in.

After leaving the crafts festival, I went to the PRM (Public Radio of
Mississippi) store, which is in a much more convenient location than it
used to be -- at least more convenient for me since it's right in my old
stomping grounds, which I always feel the need to visit.  I bought a few
xmas presents there, then ate lunch at the soda fountain of my childhood
drugstore, then went out to a mall and found nothing, then to a nearby
TJMax, where I bought a few more things.  I need to spread stuff out and
check my lists, but I think I've pretty much finished my xmas shopping
and my mother's xmas shopping now.  My mother's has been pretty easy
since she's mainly giving magazine subscriptions.  But she did need to
buy a few more items.

I headed out of Jackson on schedule, met lots of traffic coming this way
and remembered we had a home basketball game today that people were
leaving, and got home about an hour ago.

All in all, a pretty good day, though I got teary when driving through
my old neighborhood, thinking about people who have died, etc.  I do
need to go to Jackson from time to time, though, to breathe home-town
air.  It's <important>.

But isn't yours a $5000 deductible?  Mine is a little bit better than
that.  It's $500, I think.

That's something I'm looking forward to.  Of course it's likely that the
premium I'm now paying will move up and up between now and then, meaning
that the drop in cost when I have Medicare (and my state insurance
becomes secondary) will have me still paying about what I'm paying now.

Ah yes.  I wrote the frist part above before reading this part.

ROFL!  No, it's not all about me.  It's about me and other retired
people.  My point was simply that not everything is all about you.  You
are not a retired person and thus don't figure into this particular
filament.  I realize that's difficult for you to comprehend -- that
there could be anything that isn't about you.

Huh?  It might make sense for insurance companies to charge more for
smokers, but I'm not aware that they do.  Otoh, I'm not sure how much
sense it would make.  I have marveled for years at the sickness I see
around me -- how often non-smokers seem to get sick.  And this reminds
me -- you don't seem to be sick nearly as often as you used to.  What
has changed?

I was guessing that that might be the name of the school, but I kept

ROFL!  I may be old, but I'm not *that* old!  I think I mentioned before
being fascinated when seeing my father's life-time teaching certificate,
issued about 1930.  I don't really know when life-time teaching
certificates stopped being issued, now that I think about it, but I
would guess probably by 1940.  The normal teaching certificates of
people my age (college graduation '65) were for five years.  A few odd
states gave ten-year certificates.

Re "automatically," it was considered normal in my generation to get a
certificate for the state you finished the requirements in since having
that certificate made getting one in the state you moved to simpler.

Don't get too excited about Medicare. There is no prescription drug
coverage now, and I doubt there ever will be. Also, many health providers
severely limit the number of Medicare patients whom they will accept in a
given time period (because of the amount of money they lose on each
Medicare patient). In order to get a primary care physician for my mother
at UT, we had to wait months. I even offered to pay for the first visit
myself - but the rule are such that the dr. could not accept that. I will
keep group insurance as long as I am employed - it beats the heck out of
Medicare - though Medicare would cost me less in monthly
premiums. Obviously, Medicare beats the heck out of nothing or even
$5000-$6000 a year, but it has severe problems. If you need medical
atention immediately, but have to wait 3 months because you are on
Medicare, well - you may die waiting.

I think I said earlier that I had never known of that to be the case,
but I take that back.  I heard not long ago that it's the case for the
Georgia university system -- and it kicks in after only ten years in the
system.  Somebody who was an administrator here and then retired here to
become an administrator at a university in Georgia is supposedly
thinking that he'd like to come back here (one can unretire in our
system), but he needs only three more years in Georgia to have free
medical insurance forever after.  So he's going to stay there for those
three more years.

I have contact with far fewer public doorknobs, and I basically see no
people, so I don't get exposed to anything.

Of course, that means, I'm exposed to fewer smokers, too, which I
always count as a good thing.

Jesus. Rick Perry is going to be elected President, too, if being dumb
as a rock is the primary criterion.

Seems to be it would get pretty complicated if all the risks were
considered in the cost of insurance -- like has there been breast cancer
in your family, has there been heart trouble in your family, are you a
gay male and thus at risk for AIDS (I read recently that more females
than males are getting AIDS now, though), are you fat, are you
sedentary, etc. etc. etc.

That's amazing.  It's almost free for MSU employees (real employees --
not people like lecturers) for their own personal coverage, but it has
always costed megabucks for family members to be included.  That's not a
change.  It's been that way forever, afaik -- certainly for the past
thirty-five years.

Usually.  I was thinking today when driving back from Jackson about how
many stories get lost -- not big stories -- they usually live on -- but
little stories.  I know exactly what my parents were doing when they got
the news of PH.  But who will know after I'm dead?  I should ask my
mother now whether she remembers.  Probably she will, although her mind
seems to turn off and on.  I'm sure my RRB doesn't even remember the
story, even though he was alive at the time and I wasn't, so my mother
and I are the only ones who know.  As I said, what my parents were doing
at that moment is of no real importance.  But it's a little thing that
will be lost.

Has he told stories about the event, or is he quiet on the subject?

You mean they didn't know they existed at all until after retirement
age?  How did they find out then?  And did they meet then?  And did they
like each other?  Great story!

        My dad knows he has/had another older half brother besides my
uncle who committed suicide after getting back from Vietnam,
but doesn't know anything about him other than that he was
given up for adoption.

See above re my premiums.  My point was that my own insurance premiums
will drop when Medicare kicks in.  I certainly didn't mean to imply that
I would live with only Medicare.

I will keep group insurance for the rest of my life.  Are you saying
that you are not going to use Medicare at all?  I find that pretty
weird.  The cost is small, and you're paying for the supplement to that
smallness every year that you're working.  I'm paying it right now even
though I'm <retired> since I'm getting paid for my adjunct teaching,
meaning I'm paying into social security and medicare.

I've never heard about the waiting game.  My mother has never had to
wait for medical attention.  Nor did my father.  This story sounds a bit
like the US medical community's defensive response to sensible
suggestions, like the Canadian plan -- "ohhhh -- Canadians are rushing
to the border for our health care because they have to wait so long for

Yup. Me too, even though I just got word that my group insurance is
going up $60 a month next year. But I get my inhaler thingies for $10.30
instead of $80-$90 retail. So it more than pays.

Gosh, I guess I'm supposed to get sick more often.  I somehow just can't
help it.  It just doesn't happen.

        There are lots of people still teaching who have lifetime
certificates here in MO.  I think they were issued up until
about 20 years ago.

        Well, UMSL can't recommend me for a certificate for Illinois,
even though it is ten minutes away, but I can apply once I
have my MO certificate.  MO's requirements are slightly more
stringent than IL's in that we have to do so many field
hours and IL pre-service teachers do not.  Some states have
full reciprocity, while others require additional
coursework.  MO and MA have full reciprocity, which would be
important to me if I needed to move back suddenly.

I trust that it is clear that I am totally against the US system of
medical insurance.  As I've said many times before, medical care should
be like police and fire protection.  Doctors should get paid more
because of the required education.  But they should be available to all
for no cost, just like the firepeople who will come if your house
catches on fire or the policepeople who will help if you need them.  And
they don't send bills.

I don't remember how the discussion of insurance started, but I
*thought* I started it complaining about not having health
insurance.  As you correctly noted, I am not retired. I don't know how
retirement entered into the conversation. I think you should have
thanks that you have insurance, retired or not.

No. And what's worse, Christa and Scott put childproof covers on the
doorknobs and the dogs can still open the doors! Christa said it's
down to about 10% of the time, though.

The turning-off-the-light story was very funny. Scott woke up in the
middle of the night and couldn't go back to sleep, so he got a book
and went in the other room. One of the dogs read with him for a while,
but after a while, she got bored and turned off the light so Scott
couldn't read any more and then lay down next to him.

But the soup story was just eerie.

My RRSIL has a half-sibling (sister, I think) that she knows nothing
about and has no interest in finding out about.  She's never even
mentioned it to me.  My mother told me that a long time ago.  I find
that way weird.  I would be dying to meet a half-sibling.  But, as I've
said before, my RRB&SIL and I have very, very little in common.  Our
views of what's interesting or important in life are totally different.

Yes, you did.  But the discussion had morphed onward, as usually happens
on Words-L. Or at least a side-point had been added, which is what I was
replying to.

I think it was Betty who mentioned it.

I will always have insurance.  As we've discussed before, you and I have
very different priorities in life.  I consider medical insurance far,
far more important than a house.  You don't.  NB: I am not saying that
my priorities are the <right> ones and yours are the <wrong> ones.  All
I'm saying is that they are <different> ones.  I would've put that house
up for sale the day I got fired -- or laid off or whatever the proper
term is.

That's not true. That's not a choice I'm being presented with.

That's amazing.  I wouldn't have believed it if anybody had told me
there was such a thing as a lifetime teaching certificate when I was in
college in the early '60s.  And I know that people were taking courses
to renew their certificates when I first started teaching here, spring
of '70.  I know that because I ran into one of my brother's old
girlfriends, who was here taking a course for renewal of her teaching
certificate the first year I taught here.  A few years later I was
regularly teaching people in summer school who were here for that
purpose.

That's what I meant above re automatically getting a certificate in the
state you were finishing the requirements in.

But mightn't they give you a temporary certificate pending your taking
the additional coursework?  That used to be routine (back in the dark
ages) -- you could go on and teach but with a temporary certificate
specifying that you had to take X courses in X length of time in order
for it to become a <real> certificate -- like you could get a three-year
temporary certificate, giving you that length of time to take the
required courses, and upon completion of those courses you'd get the
regular five-year certificate (whether that extended the length of time
before you had to do more courses for renewing, I don't remember).

        I think my dad would be very interested in meeting his half
brother, but he doesn't know how to find him (if he's even
still alive).  Anybody who would have any info is dead now.
  My grandmother (who I'm named after) was quite the slut.

I don't understand.  Are you going to be spending so much money on
horses or whatever that you can't pay for medical insurance?  As I said
earlier, different strokes for different folks.  I consider medical
insurance essential.

No, I don't.  I remember using the word "fired" at one point here on
Words-L and being told that the proper term was "laid off."  My
understanding is that "laid off" means that it's temporary and the
company is hoping to hire you back as soon as they can.  So no, I don't
really know what the right term is in this case.  But the term isn't
important.  My point was simply that because I'm not as gutsy as you
are, which is something I've said a zillion times before, I would have
on the day I moved out of my office put a for-sale sign up in front of
my house.

Well, it may not be as bad as I think. Here's how it works at UT.

Can I Continue My Insurance Coverage During Retirement?

Retired state and higher education employees may be eligible to continue
group health insurance coverage at retirement. Individuals who are not yet
Medicare eligible may continue participation in the State Group Insurance
Program if they meet certain service requirements and receive a monthly
benefit. Retired employees or their dependents who are eligible for
Medicare Part A are not eligible to participate in the State insurance
plan. All retirees and their eligible dependents who are eligible for Part
A of Medicare may participate in a Medicare Supplement Plan. Individuals
will not be allowed to continue regular group insurance once becoming
eligible for Medicare Part A, but will be offered coverage through a
Medicare Supplement Plan.

Tennessee Medicare Supplement Program

Retirees and their dependents who are eligible for Medicare Part A may be
eligible for the State's Medicare Supplement Plan.

Blue Cross Blue Shield of Tennessee, the Plan Administrator, will
automatically send applications for the Medicare Supplement Plan to
retirees approximately 30 days after their initial retirement benefit
check is received - if they or their dependents are eligible for Medicare
at the time of retirement. Applications must be returned to Blue Cross
within 30 days to avoid the late applicant process.

Retirees participating in an Optional Retirement Plan sponsored by higher
education are eligible for the Medicare Supplement Plan. If a TCRS
benefit check is not received, Medicare eligibility should be reported to
the TCRS office and premiums will be billed directly by Blue Cross.

I did not know this existed until tonight - I searched the web. This has
never been mentioned in a retirement seminar. Of course, I have no idea
how much it costs.

I can't believe that you really think that the only reason someone
would be without insurance is by choice.

Let's it put it this way:  you are making judgements based on

There are all kinds of possible ways available on the web.  How much
does he know about him?  Re the anybody who would have any info being
dead, I've thought about that many times since getting interested in
genealogy.  I hate that I wasn't interested in it before these people
died.  But even so, I have been able to find lots of stuff, much of it
via web resources.

PS: I think I told earlier that we managed to find *100%* of the just
under 300 people in my high school class of '61.  I'm counting dead
people in that 100%, of course.  But we did it, with the web as a huge
help, though with some phone calls also required.

Further, a retiring tenured faculty member may be rehired after 60 days for
some work (sort of like N.):

The salary paid to a participant for service provided under the
Post-Retirement Service Agreement will be proportionate to his or her
salary prior to retirement, plus a salary supplement equal to the premium
he or she must pay to continue, as applicable, single or family medical
insurance or Medicare supplemental insurance coverage.  (Note:  The
medical insurance supplement will be determined on an individual basis
assuming the retiree and, if applicable, his or her spouse will
participate in the State of Tennessee Retiree Group Insurance Program
and/or the State of Tennessee Retiree Medicare Supplement Program - Plan
Two.)

So, I suppose that if I retire but am willing to teach two sections within
the 14 months (60 days of waiting plus a year) of, say, Structure of
Modern English, I can draw some salary  and the Medicare Supplement
amount. If I could do that the following summer, it might be
reasonably attractive.

Natalie - do you get anything like this?

Who would sell it to me? Well, I now know that something might be

        Yes, that's how it is supposed to work.

        There is a national certification, but it doesn't mean
anything right now.  I hear it is a real pita to go through,
but Missouri will up your salary $5000/year if you get it
(the money comes directly from the state).

        He knows that they have the same mother, roughly the years he
may have been born (late 30's or early 40's), but not the
father, whose family took the baby.

Without reading all the details of your options, let me say that lots
and lots and lots of people can't continue in their group plans after
retirement.  That's why I said that it was a "benefit" that I could
continue in mine, even though I have to pay the full cost of continuing
it.  But I still don't understand why you think that if you can't
continue UT insurance, you are left with only Medicare.  My parents
had/have (had for Daddy, have for Mama) AARP insurance.  I don't
remember whether Daddy's business had insurance as a fringe benefit at
all.  If it did, it ended when he retired -- which he did only because
the business closed -- he was in his late seventies at the time.  I do
know for a fact that my parents got AARP insurance and that it was
good.  Any AARP member can get that insurance.  I get mail from them all
the time trying to convince me to get it.  I don't need to get it, but I
certainly would if I hadn't stayed in the state group.  If I decided to
move to another state, I might drop the state group and go with AARP.

So back to the question:  Are you planning to be too poor in retirement
to pay for insurance?  My mother is mightily poor these days -- as in
really skirting rock-bottom poor.  But she still is managing to pay her
insurance premiums.

Hint:  It's not all about you.

The above was about Bethany's retirement plans.  I assume that she will
have some kind of retirement income and can thus afford to pay for
insurance coverage.

What does that mean?  That you can make as much after retiring as you
made before?  If so, why in the world haven't you retired??  Our
retirement rules say that I have to make less than 50% of what I would
make for the same work if unretired.

You are insane not to be retired!

No.  I get less than half pay and no fringe benefits -- no add-ons.

AARP is the only one I have first-hand knowledge of.  Surely it's not

It will be difficult for me to pay $5000-$6000 dollars for
private insurance annually, And I think that by then I, in my late 60s,
will be uninsurable for less, given the way med costs are rising. Of
course I would prefer to have private insurance - but I will probably have
to make do with Medicare and whatever Supp Policy the state of TN makes
available - if i can afford it. How much does your mother pay?

It will be time to start hoarding prescription drugs soon!

So he doesn't know the father's name.  That's a problem.  Still, though,
some searching of the mother's name might yield something.

You have told us about how you don't have insurance.  My reply above was
to Bethany about her retirement plans.  You replied with the >>> above.
That certainly suggests that you think it's about you, not about
Bethany.  You are age-eligible for AARP insurance also, I think, but you
are unemployed and without money.  Bethany will have income when she's
retired.  So this is about Bethany, not about you.

It's somewhere around $250 a month.  I could look up the exact figure
since I pay it for her every month, but that's a pretty close guess.

My comment (really a question) was about you. I was only in there as
the asker of the question.

No - one may teach only 6-15 credit hours a year - and one will not do
committee, administrative work, etc., be paid for research - so I will
guess that one may make probably about 20-40% of a regular salary.

Natalie, you are taking into account only a few of the relevant facts. It
would cost me an enormous amount of money over the rest of my life to
retire now. I have studied all my options carefully - and fought hard
(successfully, so far) to keep them in place, as you know - for one
thing, by teaching until I have 30 years in service here, I pick up an
extra several hundred a month for the rest of my life.

Also, I do not necessarily want to continue teaching here after
retirement. I might consider doing it one year for the extra income that
first year - and the insurance payments - but i will probably not have
time to do it more than that.

And of course, I am quite busy with ongoing research and writing. I am not
ready to retire.

Thanks. That's a large piece of change - $3000 a year.

And how exactly would that have helped?   If Karen had sold her house, she
might not have realized a penny from the sale and might even have had to
borrow money to pay closing costs.  Then she would still have had to pay
rent some place which could have been higher than her mortgage payment and
certainly would not have helped her financial situation once she becomes
employed again and would like to be a home owner once more.

Natalie, I don't think you know what you are talking about.  AARP doesn't
even sell any kind of health insurance except supplemental insurance to
Medicare.   Check out there web page.  I did.

I thought the house was a major problem in Karen's situation.  She has
talked as if it is.  As for losing money on selling it, you don't have
to accept an offer for less than your asking price.  Most people do
(except in certain markets like California, of course), but they don't
have to.

Again, I thought that her mortgage payments were large.  That's what I'm
basing all this on.

Is your loan 100%?  Surely you have some equity in the house, don't you?

Bethany was talking about medigap.  And no, I've never checked out
AARP's offerings.  I do know that they started trying to sell me medical
insurance the minute I joined, which was fifteen years pre-Medicare, as
they knew since they knew my age.  Maybe they've stopped having that
kind of insurance.  I threw the stuff away and don't think I've gotten
anything from them lately about it -- about health insurance, that is --
I get stuff from them about car insurance, etc.

A friend of mine saved $800/year by switching to their auto insurance. We

?? You said that all you would have would be Medicare.  I asked why you
wouldn't be able to afford other insurance -- which is normally called
medigap.  I have no idea now what you're talking about.

Re working and retiring. I can imagine that if one is a literary critic or
conducts research involving only materials found in one location, retiring
in order to do more research and writing might make sense (depending
upon one's office space needs, etc.). But if one needs to travel, examine
texts in various locations, etc., that doesn't make any sense to me. When
I retire, I will presumably lose university travel funds and other
perks. And if I retired, I would also lose longevity payments, 401
matching funds, etc.

More than that, UT appears to be in a strong catch-up mode - we have all
been severely underpaid for decades - it looks as though things will
continue to improve here for several years. That's not a great time to
abandon ship - especially if one is not <ready> to retire.

>I thought the house was a major problem in Karen's situation.

Paying for a roof over one's head is a major problem for anyone who is out
of work.  If it was rent or a mortgage, it would still be a problem.

>  As for losing money on selling it, you don't have
>to accept an offer for less than your asking price.

There is just so much that one can get for a house.  One can sit forever
waiting for a good price, or market the house at a price at which it will
sell.  If you have just purchased a house in the last two years, it is not
going to sell for much more than what  you bought it for.  Thus, it is very
difficult to realize money on selling a house that you just bought unless
you were in the fortunate situation to have made a large down payment,
which I don't think Karen was.

>basing all this on.  -- Natalie (natalie@maynor.net)

But you don't know, and I don't know, how large rent would be in a safe,
reasonable apartment or rental home in Austin.  Also, see first paragraph.

>Bethany was talking about medigap.

I think Bethany was talking about some kind of total health insurance that
would be better than the insurance Medicare offers.  Of course, she is
wrong that Medicare is a shitty insurance.  It's fairly decent.  And with a
Medigap policy, one is very well covered, although drug coverage is still a
problem which is being addressed (or not) in Congress.

The insurance AARP tries to sell to people age 50 - 65 is still a
supplemental insurance, meant to pay the deductibles and things that aren't
covered by what your primary insurance pays.

Actually, I first said that like most people I would be dependent on
Medicare + Medigap.

To me, "other insurance" means non-Medicare-related insurance. Medigap is
Medicare supplemental - they are closely related. I kept wondering why
you thought I should/could afford "other insurance."

Absolutely.  Retire when you are ready to retire not when someone else
thinks you should.  Some people should probably not retire.  Others should
have retired a long time ago.  You'll know when the time is right for you
just as Natalie did. Natalie took advantage of a special offer and it's
great for her.

Ryan just bought his condo in February and he is refinancing and saving

Since Bethany has never said that Medicare is shitty, one wonders what
Bonnie has been reading/drinking. What Bethany said is that Medicare has
some severe restrictions - particularly with health care providers who are
required by law to restrict the no. of new Medicare patients they accept
each month or other time period. I think there is every reason to assume
that that restriction will become increasingly important - health care
providers sometimes, perhaps often, lose money on Medicare patients.

How expensive is it?  If one has a $5,000 deductible is it worth it?

Yes.  Too much money is spent on some  people during their last six months
of life but I understand it would be hard to let go for some.

As we know, Bonnie only reads those parts of Bethany's posts that get
reprinted in someone else's email.  Therefore, Bonnie could possibly make a
mistake as to Bethany's views.  However, these kinds of mistakes pale in
comparison to the illogic and contradictions in Bethany's own posts.  As we
all know.

That's one of the factors in my not putting my house up for sale.

I'm really astonished at how much interest the house next door is
attracting. People are literally lining up to look at it. It's going
for about $30,000 less than I paid for my house, which is about
$40,000 under what a house in good condition would bring. It'll be
interesting to see how long it takes to sell. (It will take at least
$30,000 to make the house habitable.)

It's hard to refinance without an income--otherwise, I would. It's one

I went and looked again.  I can't find a price.  But the benefits aren't
all that great.  Like they will pay you $50 for one emergency room visit
per year and $25 per covered visit for three health care visits per year
and $70 for diagnostic test services per year.   Usually when you add that
all up, you find that you are paying more in premiums than what you can
reasonably expect to get back.

The Medigap policies are better because they specifically say that they
will pick up what Medicare doesn't.  That includes the deductibles and also
the remainder of a long hospital stay after 60 days when Medicare starts
stepping down their coverage.

He gets rid of his PMI. I wasn't saying you should do this. I realize one
has to have a job. I hope the contract you were talking about works out.

Well, she was supposed to let me know last week. I phoned her twice
and left messages and she never got back to me. So I'm pretty sure
this is not going to work out. And I've cashed my last unemployment check.

        Wait.  I don't understand what equity has to do with it.  If
you sell the house and it hasn't appreciated in value,
you're still losing money to closing costs, etc.  Just
because it isn't loan money doesn't mean it isn't money.

I hate when they don't let you know either way and I think it's very
unprofessional.

Any rumor of extending benefits again?

I agree. I confess that I'm rather surprised, because she didn't seem
like this sort of person.

Nope.

I know that I give Tushar a hard time about being an H1B scab. But HP
recently laid off all their writers and is outsourcing their
documentation to India. No muss, no fussing with visas--and no jobs
for Americans. This is not a good sign.

No, not a good sign at all.   Larry lost his job by outsourcing.  No
benefits to pay.

This whole issue of Karen's house expenses is NOBODY's business.  God
ladies, let Karen live her own life.  She doesn't need any more
aggravation.  Give it a rest.

Natalie, not all that dissimilar from her RRB after all, thinks that Karen
should be living off the money that her house sale would have brought (if
it had equity) instead of taking Unemployment.

I agree with you in principle, Sylvia.  But I continue this discussion
because I am appalled at Natalie's lack of financial sense in this matter
because she seems to have very good financial sense in many other areas.

That all makes sense.  Obviously things are very different there from
here.  We get no travel funds for research trips, we have no longevity
payments, and we have no 401 matching funds.

Sign?!? This is merely another in a long line. Sun's reportedly
getting rid of 11% of its workforce - this includes almost all
their manufacturing (moving to Taiwan) and hundreds of engineers.
Dell's surviving partly as a result of shipping more of its
manufacturing overseas. The Walmart model has come to IT/high-tech.
I don't think it's good for the country but shareholders rule,
and apparently those are the only people businesses are responsible
to - mantra of American capitalism.

>No, not a good sign at all.   Larry lost his job by outsourcing.  No

This has been going on in manufacturing since the 1970s. I
often wonder about this - did people feel the same way when
those jobs were outsourced/left the country? Or is the pain felt
only when it affects professions closer to home?

Obviously.  But I had gotten the impression from things Karen has said
that her house is more expensive than some houses.

I wasn't talking about making a <profit>.  I was talking about freeing
up money that's tied up because you're in an emergency.

Btw, I heard a segment on NPR yesterday about certain fields that are
begging for employees.  The ones mentioned were all medical-related.
There's a huge shortage of nurses, but that of course requires going to
nursing school for an extended period of time.  Some of the other jobs
were said to require very little background -- just some short training,
possibly even on-the-job training.  One of them mentioned was a
respiratory therapist -- sucking gunk out of people's lungs.  I don't
remember what the others were.

Likely not that many. They come from *everywhere*, of course, but
remembering back from the 80s and 90s there were an awful lot of
Indonesians. And who knows what those nouveau lines are doing now?

And, of course, cruise lines are stratified, with the QE2 being at the top,
in my book. I used to love the days when the QE2 and the Norway would both
be in port (among 10-12 others during high season). Never got on the QE2,
but lunched on the Norway about five times.

Maybe something officially named Medigap is offered by the gov't, but
that's not what I was talking about.  I was talking about private
insurance, which is also referred to as medigap if you're Medicare age.
Like my mother's AARP insurance.

Because you're not a pauper.  Your retirement income will surely be far
more than my mother's income, which is $1790 a month.

Of course it's not.  But neither is whether you would lose money by
selling your house so fast, especially when you add in closing costs and
moving expenses.

What's the common wisdom on the difference between your interest rate
and the current interest rate re refinancing?  I've read it many times
but have forgotten what it is -- the amount of difference that makes
refinancing worth the cost and bother.  My case is borderline.  My rate
is something like 7.2% -- not high enough to make refinancing a clearcut
plus.  One thing I've thought about doing, though, is using my
home-equity loan to pay off the mortgage.  The problem is that that
would be a gamble.  Sooner or later the interest rates will no doubt
rise.  Iow, that would be the same as having a variable-rate mortgage.

Right.  As I said earlier, this isn't about making a profit.  It's about
an emergency need.  You take that equity money to use or invest or
whatever and find a cheaper place to rent.  Obviously that isn't wise if
your mortgage payments are lower than the cheapest apartments
available.  But what happens if you reach the point of not being able to
pay the mortgage payments?  I'm not sure of the answer, but don't you
lose the equity money along with losing the house?

Since she's the one who has mentioned it on various occasions, I assumed
that she didn't mind talking about it and might in fact welcome other
people's thoughts on the subject.

Huh??  When have I ever suggested that she shouldn't be taking
unemployment?  My questions about unemployment were based on not knowing
how it worked.   I know more about it now that it has been discussed
here.  But never did I suggest that Karen shouldn't be getting it.

As I said, I don't really know the answer to the question of what
happens with a house if you can no longer make the payments.  Maybe you
really don't lose the equity money.  In that case, there should be no
rush to sell the house.  Just let the mortgage company do it for you.

The QE2 looks so old and staid compared to the newer, sleek cruise
ships.  The newer ones seem bigger to me although I know they don't have as
many rooms as the QE2.  The newer ones also seem to have more glass, more
observation decks.

Yep. Sovereign of the Seas (among the newest when I was still near a port)
and that whole class of new big ships do blow the classic oldies out of the
water. Yes, they are all bigger and have more rooms than the QE2 -- and more
glass. More class? I'm not sure.

After the days of the Falkland Islands/Islas Malvinas squabble the QE2
remained painted all grey for a while after she'd resumed her cruise
schedule. It looked really odd.

Ken is a married man, as of last night. He in tux, she in 3/4-length
satin with white roses in her hair, at the county clerk's office in Las
Vegas. A long wait they had, but it is over now. They could have had
"Elvis" as a witness, but it was $140 and he wasn't a very good Elvis,
so they went without.

        Yeah, if you have any equity.  The first few years you're
paying down interest, so equity would be minimal if you
didn't have a big down payment.  We've only started chewing
into the principal in the past year.

That's what I thought at first, but something I heard the other day
made me think that they are merely extending the date for applying for
the 13-week extension. And I've already had my 13 weeks. I wish
Natalie would have heard this NPR piece. Whoever they interviewed
didn't think I should be working at 7-11, either.

Does this mean Roy's out of a job? I had no idea that it was this
serious.

I don't remember if I mentioned it here, but I read that they are
planning to do all development in China. Where development goes, so
goes documentation...

Yeah. Enjoy life now, soon lung and throat cancer will tear your life to
bits or maybe empysema too. Possibly a massive heart attack caused by the
heart disease from smoking.

Enjoy. I have lived it and cancer sucks. Have not smoked since the middle of
1997.

I will tell him. He confessed that he cried in the ceremony, he was so

When you abuse your body, it falls apart more quickly. Genetics does not
matter.
I wonder and don't remember, did Alyce smoke? and did it contribute to her
health issues.

Genetics does matter.  My mother smoked much of her life.  She lived to be
93-years-old without any lung or heart problems.

        My family tend to be really healthy until the
smoking-relating cancers get them.  My generation is the
first in which everyone doesn't smoke, so it'll be
interesting to see what we all die from.  My sister smokes,
so it'll be that or her weight that gets her, but the rest
of (including cousins) will be more unpredictable.

not directly. My health issue is COPD, and a scarred lung from a series
of different pneumonias suffered over a space of two months in 1998. No
doubt I may have been weakened by having smoked, but it was not the
direct cause of my current state. The pneumonia that I got from mold was
the worst and now I cannot remember its name. Aspergillis, that's it.

Thanks.  But PBS has very different schedules in different places.  I'll

Of course you're paying almost nothing but interest at first.  I can't
imagine that anybody wouldn't know that -- or at least anybody who had
ever had a mortgage.  I was talking about downpayment money.  With the
typical costs of houses these days even just 10% is a pretty big chunk
of money.

I did hear it.  Or at least I heard something like that on NPR, though I
don't remember anything about working at a 7-11, so maybe it was
different.

You did.  We discussed the language.

That's how conversations go.  If you mention something, you're likely to
get a response.  You can appreciate that the responders care enough to
offer thoughts, or you can be ungracious about it.

I'm happy to report that during the times when I've been a non-smoker, I

        But 5% is more typical, which in our case was about $5000.
We had a little more equity in our Ohio house than that, but
we used it to pay off the last of the credit card debt left
over from Kevin's first wife.

I do appreciate that the responders offer thoughts. I think it's odd
for people to say what they would have done under the same
circumstances when they don't know what the circumstances are.

Are there any Southern Hemisphere bears????

A google search provides lots info about hairy Australian gay men, but
not much else. I know they don't live in Antarctica. But what about,
say, Peru?

I think it's interesting to hear what other people would do in various
situations.  As for not knowing what the circumstances are, I thought in
your case they were that you were out of work.  I would move.  That does
not mean that I think you should move.  I would've said yes to that job
that involved moving to Japan.  That does not mean that I think you
should have.  Etc.

I thought 20% was the norm.  But then I've never really tried to check
out the norm.  I just know that if you put in less than 20%, you're
stuck with negatives like that required insurance.  I'm once again
impressed with how much cheaper houses are elsewhere.  Seeing the
pictures of your house, I would certainly have guessed it to be more
expensive than that.  It would be in Starkville.

11% is true (worldwide). The other two comments are not so clear cut.

There has been manufacturing in Taiwan for a while. But not the high
end machines. Where did get the information from ?

Given that the total employees was in the range of 38000 there would
be hundreds of engineers in the 11%.

You didn't mention the 9% that went last year.

Is everybody playing The Game right now?  I am po'ed because I haven't
played it in several days and just decided to do so.  But the page is
"unavailable."  My guess is that that's because it's totally snowed
under with traffic here on a late Sunday afternoon in cold weather.

Btw, is there a certain number of each letter, or is that all
mysterious?  Like is there any way to have an idea which letters will
show up as your new tiles -- or rather which ones won't since they've
been used up?  My impression is no -- that all the letters just keep on
coming.  Being a Scrabbler is helpful in some ways in The Game in that
you're used to <word-building>.  But in other ways it's a disadvantage
since you're used to hoarding certain letters, you don't expect certain
words to be accepted that in fact are accepted in The Game, etc.

PS: Did I mention earlier that I was po'ed by The Game one of the last
times I played because I played a wonderful 9-letter word -- don't
remember now what it was -- and a box popped up saying that words that
long weren't allowed.  I found that tacky.

No, Roy still has a job. Even so we still had to lose a person, as

What option?  Asking for volunteers?  It certainly makes sense that if
one person needed to go and one person volunteered to go, that person
would go.  I don't understand what you mean about English law.

I have kind of wondered where Wordslers were finding so much time to
play this game.  Even without school and two jobs, life just doesn't
leave that much time for computer games.

I haven't played today.  I MUST NOT PLAY TODAY.
I am composing and printing our Xmas cards and it's a
big job.  Getting sorta near the end.  Finally got my
wonderful machine to print out my database of addresses,
no thanks to Gates who keeps complicating what used to
be a simple procedure.  I could kill whoever thought up
Mail Merge.  Well, that's a little strong.  I could certainly
make them hurt a little.

MailMerge isn't a new thing. It's been around for... A long time. I
remember using it 8 or so years ago. Dag, I feel old.

Did I mention that I worried after writing a Christmas letter for my
mother that it sounded almost like a parody of Christmas letters:  I'm
old, I spend my time lying in bed, and my dog died.  She didn't dictate
the letter to me word for word, but I put it together from things she
had said and then had her read it.  She said it was "a nice letter."
Later I looked back on it and wondered.  But e-mail I've gotten from
some of the recipients said they thought it was a "very nice letter."
So maybe it wasn't as bad as I had feared.  I did it early for two
reason -- one was to get her new address to people I hadn't sent her
address-change letter to last May, and the other was that I want her to
get a blitz of xmas cards.  That latter is in some ways sort of tacky, I
guess -- like sending somebody something good wishes in hope of getting
good wishes in return.  But in this case I think it is appropriate.  I
want her to get lots of xmas cards.  She hasn't sent any at all in the
past few years because the idiots in Hville didn't bother to help her.
This year is different.

She was very confused today, which bothers me.  Maybe it's that she had
been sound asleep.  I took her a wonderful little dog book I bought for
her in Jackson yesterday, but she was too confused to look at it today.
I know she'll love it when she does look at it on a better day.

Obviously I'm confused.  I thought you had said something about a job
interview at which you were asked if you would relocate to Japan and you
said no.

It was an interview, yes, and this was one of the questions. This was
by no means a deal-breaker.

You know that?  My guess is that they found somebody with qualifications
similar to yours who said yes -- that they wanted somebody willing to
live in Japan and found the person.  NB: I am *not* saying that you
should have said yes if you were not willing to move to Japan.  That
example was one of my string of examples of things I would have done
that are not necessarily things you should do.

The usual sources. I know lots of people in the Sun/Java
world and the (potential) layoffs of so many engineers
from Sun was watercooler fodder. Many long-time, senior
folk got the axe and I felt for them. BusinessWeek had
a big story on the high-tech world and the consensus
on Sun was not good. It said established plants in
California were among those that would be hit.

Plus I've followed Scott McNealy's swagger-laced comments
for a long time - he  does not seem to have a plan for now. :-(

>Given that the total employees was in the range of 38000 there would

I was making a general comment about the situation. Pointing
out that Karen's HP report was not a "sign" - but old news.

Glad you're hanging in there.

I tried it for the first time when Steph asked for the URL. I played
for about 15 minutes that day. Haven't had the time to try again.

Our local guide says something about a folk-music program -- nothing
about The Three Tenors.  But that's ok since I just remembered that when
watching "My Dog Skip" on TNT last week there was a preview of a movie
tonight that sounded like my kind of thing.  I've forgotten the name of
it.  For those of you into movie-star names, it has Mary Tyler Moore in
it.  I'm going to watch it.  Another thing re The Three Tenors is that
music is great if it's a simultaneous broadcast of PRM and PBS, meaning
that you can get the sound on a radio, as with speakers.  TV sounds
aren't so great (for me).

        It would be in Webster Groves.  Black people live in
Florissant, so property values are lower.

        Twenty percent is the ideal, but not the norm.

No, this is not what happened. I believe that I told the list what
happened:  they hired no one.

I'd be very surprised if there were another person with my
qualifications in Austin.

He works for Sun, I thought.

I'm less vested in it here. It's different when it's all down the
street from where you live.

And I imagine it's different if I were actually employed in, or had a
chance of being employed in, that industry.

    When, at fifteen, I was deceived/inveigled/coerced into meeting my
biological mother, I found that I was not only attending school with but
was even in the school band with a half-brother and half-sister.  I
disliked them prior to that and haven't spared either of them a thought
since, and know nothing of their whereabouts.
    Hope I don't need a marrow transplant.

No. But I would not assume it because of a stamp. Some countries
contribute jillions to their GNP by putting out stamps that will appeal
to collectors. African nations have Marilyn Monroe on them, etc.

It would appear that Peru has spectacled bears. Cf,

There's a picture of the stamp on Google, but too small for me to see

So the line must be between 8 and 9.  I don't normally count letters.
But I was startled when the box popped up telling me that it wouldn't

Well, sorry.  I must admit that trying to keep up with all your
interviews etc is something of a full-time job, which Bonnie may be able
to do since she doesn't work but which is beyond my capacity at the
moment.  So I will from now on not let my imagination get involved.  If
you don't want my opinions, that's fine.  I'll offer no more thoughts on
the subject.  I'll let you wallow merrily in joblessness forever if
that's what you want.

Why is that a new low?  As I said earlier, I cannot possibly keep up
with the details of Karen's job-search, yet she gets all testy if we
remember one detail but not all the details.  So indeed I'm giving up on
paying attention to any of it.  I do remember for sure that she said
that she has not lowered herself to applying for a job at Walmart.
That, imho, means that she must not be desperate for a job -- that she
prefers to wallow merrily in joblessness.

> Natalie!  Get a grip!  (also yes please shut up)

A grip on what?  And sure -- I'm out of this thread now.  No more about
Karen's search for jobs of appropriately lofty status.

And with that undoubtedly very hurtful comment, Karen, I apologize for my
part in keeping this conversation going.  I should have realized that no
good could come out of trying to enlighten Natalie.

The OED dates both "guv" and "biz" back to the 1860s.  "Sos" is might be
there as the plural of "so", as in "I don't want any ifs, ands, buts, or
sos".

I was surprised that "rec" was allowed, but I see that, as a shortening of
"recreation", it dates back to the late 1920s.

I don't know what the game's word wranglers had against "tech", which the
OED dates back to the 1900s.

Seeing as the game is a java applet that downloads onto one's own computer,
and seeing as the programmers would have no real reason to encrypt the
game's lexicon except for compression purposes, I'll bet it would be fairly
easy for someone skilled in such arts to reverse engineer said lexicon.

The medical system seems excellent in handling routine diseases.

For diseases requiring involvemenr of expensive equipment, such as M.R.I.,
there seems to be a lineup lasting several months.

Canadians needing these have to choose between going to the U.S. or waiting
months, possibly dying while waiting.

The Canadian federal government commisioned a report by Roy Romanow to
analyze the problem.

He recommended spending almost exactly twice the money, plus establishing
new government bodies to oversee things.

For those who complained about extremely high expenses and excessive
bureaucracy, the changes he recommends go in a direction opposite to their
desires.

I'm actually feeling pretty mellow. I had several glasses of wine,
good soup, homemade bread, and lovely salad with Ligniere. Natalie is

It accepts 'kine', which is never far from my heart, but which I don't
think of as standard English. Isn't kine something you tread?

It also accepts 'lum'.

In Norway this is called a "Royal highball". In Russia I have had champagne with a shot of vodka.

After all this DVD-talk we couldn't resist any more. On Saturday our local "super"-market - a supposedly cheap chain store which is not into electronics - offered DVDs which could be programmed for different zones and which cost a little less than USD 100. So now we have a DVD. There is one problem so far: my TV can't manage to separate input from the scart-plug and input from the aerial (ordinary coax-link). According to the TV's manual it should be possible to switch between input sources. And indeed, when I select what should be ordinary TV I get the sound, and I get text-TV but I don't get the TV-picture. Instead, if I turn on the DVD I get the DVD-image even if I have not selected the scart input. This means that for the time being I have to unplug the DVD from the TV when I want to see TV (or use the - separate - VCR).

This is the kind of score-a-rich-jackass-husband talent gone

We have free will and we don't gotta. Adam Sandler is an idiot
who represents the lowest point of comic versifying in English.
If you gotta love him you gotta join the frat boys who splutter
and choke over "Opera Man".

(To the tune of "If You're Happy And You Know It Clap Your Hands")

If we cannot find Osama, bomb Iraq.
If the markets hurt your Mama, bomb Iraq.
If the terrorists are Saudi
And the bank takes back your Audi
And the TV shows are bawdy,
Bomb Iraq.

If the corporate scandals growin', bomb Iraq.
And your ties to them are showin', bomb Iraq.
If the smoking gun ain't smokin'
We don't care, and we're not jokin'.
That Saddam will soon be croakin',
Bomb Iraq.

Even if we have no allies, bomb Iraq.
>From the sand dunes to the valleys, bomb Iraq.
So to hell with the inspections;
Let's look tough for the elections,
Close your mind and take directions,
Bomb Iraq.

While the globe is slowly warming, bomb Iraq.
Yay! the clouds of war are storming, bomb Iraq.
If the ozone hole is growing,
Some things we prefer not knowing.
(Though our ignorance is showing),
Bomb Iraq.

So here's one for dear old daddy, bomb Iraq,
>From his favorite little laddy, bomb Iraq.
Saying no would look like treason.
It's the Hussein hunting season.
Even if we have no reason,
Bomb Iraq.

Afaik, it's on your own computer while you're playing it, but I don't
think you can keep it on your own computer.  That's an interesting
thought, though.  If it's there, why can't you save it and not have to
visit the site again?   Anyway, I couldn't play it last night because I
couldn't get to the site, which I guessed was because too many people
were going there to get The Game.

Yes, we hear of Canadians car pooling to Bangor, Maine for the use of
M.R.I. and other such tests.   We also hear of Americans traveling to New
Brunswick, Canada to fill drug prescriptions.

It's seventeen degrees Fahrenheit below zero this morning.  But that's with
wind chill.  Actual temperature is one above.   It looks so deceptively
warm outside with the sun shining down nicely.

kine = cattle  "The lowing of the kine..."

It accepts other words that I've always thought of as British terms---seems

Here's another attitude that I don't understand.  People don't want to live
a long time so they don't take care of their health.  What often happens is
that they do live a long time anyway.  But they live it in a crippled and
debilitated way, dependent on others.  I'd just as soon stay as healthy and
able as possible and die whenever.  Maybe I'll just die in my sleep, in my
own home, never having been all that sick, like my Grandmother did.

    Not a whole lot to say.  I'd always known I was adopted, and my mother
always made a point of telling me that anytime I wanted to meet my birth
mother I could.  I never did.  We were to leave for Arizona just as soon as
I finished driver's ed, and in the final week my mother asked me if I'd
drive her over to see a "friend" and say goodbye before we left.   Of
course, I was thrilled to drive anywhere, being fifteen.  I was less than
thrilled when I discovered where we were going.  I felt betrayed by my
mother, and I'm afraid I was an angry little shit the entire time we were
there and for some time after for being tricked.  I feel guilty about that
now, especially knowing now how hard it must have been on my birth mother.
It turns out she and my mom had been in touch all along, and she lived just
across the street from the grade school playground.  I'll never know what
sort of emotions she must have felt.  Maybe after that meeting she was glad
she gave me up.  I don't know.  And I doubt if she's still alive.

>From the local weatherguy on the electric teevee this morning I learned the word
albido.

It is a measure of how much light is reflected from an object.  The specific context
was his report that the snow cover has a .75 albido (reflects 75% of the light that
strikes it.)

I think it's a neat word.

Well, my Mom died of lung cancer in 6 weeks. My aunt, who was in much
better shape, took 9 months to die. Ditto my uncle who died of bladder
cancer. I think there's a lot to be said for being in bad shape,
judging by that.

That's the ideal.

Hmmm.  I did a quick google on albido and came up with a couple good hits, but I
may have hit misspellings.  I'll have to look it up in a dictionary.  I hope you're wrong

  Gods and Monsters (loved it)
  Wonder Boys (loved it)
  Before and After (hated it)

Your gut betrays you.

albedo, with long e and o, is a Late Latin word all by itself. From
Latin albus, white.

Hmmm.  You make a good point.  If one is unfit and generally in bad shape,
when disease hits, you die fast.   Maybe I'll give up the weights, the Tai
Chi, the calcium, the fiber and get out of shape.  But then I couldn't hike
which is something I enjoy very much.

My dad and step-mom have new house rules.  They primarily seem to
affect Nana, who visits sometimes.  How nice that she (Nana) told me
about the new rules well into the week.  Talk about being
suddenly self conscious.  I think my dad understands, but is also
still self conscious.  I dunno how long the rule has been in
effect.

As for my sister with the 2.5 year old who repeats everything
(unless it has a k in it), we may swear, but only if we do it
appropriately.

This is really sad. But I don't blame you for being angry about being
tricked. Really--I'd've felt the same way, and I don't see how anyone
wouldn't. This is one of those cases where good people try to do good
things and totally fuck up. I wouldn't bother feeling guilty; it's
just unfortunate.

Interesting.  I wouldn't have picked you as a floutist.  I would've
guessed something horny or percussiony.

So she told you in the car where you were going?  I can imagine that

Do you ever think about trying to find out for sure whether she's still
alive?

Something occurred to me today that I hadn't thought about before -- you
don't have to do the whole game at one sitting.  In my office this
morning I was looking up the bookworm url to give to a colleague and
decided to play a few minutes.  Naturally that led to a few more
minutes.  But when it hit 300,000, my usual hit-the-x-and-do
something-useful time, I instead just minimized that window.  Went on to
do other things, then went back to it a while later and kept on going
until I really did have to x out of it at something like 432,000 because
I had to give an exam at noon with a meeting right after that and with
papers to grade, etc. etc.  Anyway, if you <come and go> with The Game,
spreading it out over several hours while doing other things between
gaming, it's much easier.

I was waiting for the bus at the mall and heard a helicopter; I thought
it was the local Life Flight (the chopper service used by the hospitals
here), but there were three big black helicopters flying overhead.
I'm used to the F-16s from the Air Force base, and I've seen the
Stealth Bomber fly several times, but this was the first time I've seen
the big ones.

If people would read the owner's manual that comes with the auto, they
would find a strong recommendation that cruise control <not> be used in
heavy traffic areas, nor in rain or other inclement/possibly dangerous
conditions.  Cruise control is meant to be just that---for cruising---not
simply to allow the driver to shut off his/her brain and assume that
somehow the auto will navigate through whatever occurs.  Of course, for
those who don't intend to live much longer anyhow...

Of course, I don't really know Karen very well, but I figure, when I buy a
house, if I run into impossible fin'l times, I'm gonna take in roommates.
Seems the easiest thing to do even if somewhat unpleasant. But that may not
be to Karen's preference.

I would love to do that.

One day a couple of weeks ago, I saw a big jet turn turn around and
fly back north.  I heard that the pilots would take the planes out after
the planes had been worked on, fly a few miles, and then fly back.

I always read the manuals that come with my cars.  But manuals don't
talk about cruise control when the car doesn't have it.  And no manual
has come with the cruise controls I have had added.

Imho, cruise control is meant to be an aid in prevention of speeding
tickets.  I can't imagine any other reason for wanting it.

My father told this story from Oslo on April 10, 1940. The Germans attacked Norway on April 9 and Oslo was occupied on the same day. On April 10 there was a rumour that the British would bomb the Germans (and so the whole city) in Oslo and a general panic: everyone wanted to get out of town. My father saw a tram coming down a street and another coming in the same direction (not on the same track). The trams stopped, there was some short conferencing between the conductors, and the one in the tram going downtown unplugged his contro whhel, when to the other end of the tram (these were two-way trams), plugged his contro, wheel in there and then both trams went off beside each other almost as if it were a race away from the downtown area.

Yesterday he visited the park where he jogged the last time he was in Oslo. Wearing sneakers. And the temperature is somewhere close to -10 C. But it is a beautiful cold: the sun is just down and the high small clouds are pinkish from underneath.

I don't need to minimize and save a game.  I can quit any time I want.

I just sent a package off to the Hudson Valley.  I admitted to the friendly
postal woman that there were chocolate-covered nuts in the package.  This
cheered her because she was disappointed that the woman ahead of me did not
have fudge in the heavy package she was sending.  The friendly postal woman
knows me and asked if I cheated and bought the candy or made it myself.  I
made it myself.  I wrote a check and asked if she wanted photo ID, as the
sign sitting on the counter said.  She said:  "No, I know where to find you
and I'll make you pay in chocolate."

But the words-l moment came when that woman-of-a-certain-age, ahead of me
in line, handed in the non-fudge carrying package and I noted that it was
wrapped in plain brown paper and sealed with duct tape.  There was no
complaint from the friendly postal woman.

I have an angel bear. She was given to me by one of my kids (I forget
which) for Christmas some years ago. She has a little white dress and
fine white wings. You have to understand that there was a time when I
collected teddy bears, so I received them in all guises. Perhaps I have
75 or so.

I thought as much.  I get bored and quit after I get as many red ones as I
can. Don't use any of the red letters and see how many you accumulate
before you disintegrate.  Hot, hot, hot.

I have Web access back finally; don't know how I did without for
so long.

My questions for Steve are these:

I've been watching the two-hour business block on Saturday
mornings on Fox News.  There is a heavy presence there of ad
campaigns for both Union Pacific and Norfolk Southern.

1) These are obviously not customer-enticing but rather
image-building spots, am I right?

 2) The UP one features the voice of Sam Elliott in narration.
Am I mistaken?

  3) Will other rail companies follow suit?

I guess I could do a Web search!

I mistakenly assumed that because the lion's share of health care
resources are consumed by smoking related illnesses--not everyone has
Natalie's genes--that companies would charge smokers more for health
insurance. Silly me.

No, health insurance doesn't. For life insurance, they take a blood test
which can detect lying smokers.

I twirled things.

I had been a clarinetist but I always hated the feeling of the reed.

I played for the first time yesterday. I was home because I had a wisdom
tooth pulled. I was playing a game for over an hour I think, it went from
light to dark outside, my husband came home and I decided to just let it go.
I was a Supreme Archivist but I felt like a zombie. I don't believe I'll be
playing again. It takes too long to get difficult.

Denial's not just a river in Egypt...

That having been said, however, I can report that I haven't even thought
about cranking up The Game today. I've been busy turning in grades for
one class, reading a few of the early take-home exams for another class
(they're due Thursday morning), and cleaning up my house a little bit
since I'm going to have a houseguest tomorrow through Sunday.  It wasn't
a great housecleaning, though.  The nasty rain deterred me from mopping
the kitchen floor and murphyoiling the wood floors.  The mops are out in
the storage building, new wet leaves and pawprints would spoil the
effort immediately, etc. etc.

I read the first few pages a little while ago of a book I was thinking
about giving my RRSIL for xmas, and I love it.  I can't read it and then
give it to her since I'm not going to have time probably.  It's a long
book, my schedule is pretty busy, and I think I'm going to enjoy
savoring the book -- don't want to make myself race through it -- want
to sit and pick it up at leisure when I can find some leisure time.
Also, I have no idea if and when my RRB&SIL may come to Starkville
between now and xmas.  I may end up having to throw their stuff into
boxes and mail it to Vail, which is where they usually spend xmas.  Oh
-- forgot to mention the book's name:  _The Little Friend_ by Donna
Tartt.  I didn't read her first book but read about it both when it
first came out ten or so years ago and when this one came out recently,
with reviews saying that it was "worth the wait."

I have to say that I would not have gone out and bought the book
without the impetus of the book club reading it. So far, I've really
enjoyed the selections that have been chosen. If the group is as good,
then it'll be really be great! (I didn't go last month, even though I
read the book, because the people I know that are in the group didn't
go. So this month will be my first time.)

I'm in three book clubs; one chooses books and no one reads them, but
they get together regularly anyway. One hasn't met yet, and then the
third one is this one. My only hope.

The older woman I met at Thanksgiving is in a history book club that
sounds fun: they choose a topic, and each person finds a book on the
topic and brings it in. Sort of a cheap and easy way to find an
annotated bibliography on a topic.

While chocolate-covered nuts and other goodies are winging their way west
to the Hudson Valley, it appears that was the origin of some very cute
Belgian chocolates which arrived in Downeast Maine today.   Thank you,
Alyce.   The chocolate is excellent.  And Clyde can even share it without
the necessity of Lactaid because it is a 70% cocoa, bittersweet chocolate,
without any lactose.   Best of all the individually wrapped chocolates are
in the shape of a cat face with its tongue sticking out.  Fine chocolate
from chocosphere.com.    Thank you!

I saw the beginning of it.  I had decided to give BP one more chance
before abandoning it forever.  Made popcorn and sat down to watch BP
only to find that it wasn't on.  So I looked at the online guide, saw
Monk was on, went to that channel, and watched about a minute or two of
something that seemed silly and boring.  A goofy man was at an airport
with a woman who was encouraging him to go on through the security
check.  Maybe I should've given it a chance.  Maybe some other time I
will.  What I saw of it looked in no way appealing.

you think there's no hope, that you've got piles of nothing but vowels
on half of the board, that red tiles are beginning to pop up, etc.,
suddenly you manage to zap all the red tiles, the piles of vowels become
interspersed with some consonants, and you realize that your hope of an
ending has been dashed.

Is it true, btw, that "the lion's share of health care resources are
consumed by smoking related illnesses"?  It may be true.  My question
isn't meant as a <challenge> of that statement -- it's just an
innocent/ignorant question.  The anecdotal evidence I see around me
doesn't support that, but then anecdotal evidence from a small town is,
well, anecdotal evidence from a small town.

My mother's nursing home is having a jolly xmas party on the afternoon
of Dec. 23.  The activity director has told me that she is determined to
wheel Mama into it for at least a little while -- that Santa Claus
comes, something about confetti being thrown, etc.  This is unlike the
candlelight xmas dinner this Thursday night which we have concluded
there's no point in my showing up for since Mama can't do it.  And
that's just as well since I've promised to pick up a
can't-drive-at-all-at-night elderly person to take to the symphony
concert that night anyway -- since I'm just a shouldn't-drive-at-night
person.  Anyway, this Dec. 23 party asks families to provide at least
one gift by Dec. 6, which I've already done, and to bring a "dessert or
finger food" that day.  So what finger food should I make?  Should I do
my ham&cheese pinwheels or my cheese-bacon crispies or something sweet
instead?

Oh.  Then what is it?  I had thought it was a detective show, something
I do like very much.  As I said, I watched it for maybe as long as two
minutes -- not enough to do it justice, as I also said.  But it is
indeed true that I didn't find that security-gate scene particularly
funny.  I don't remember now exactly what it consisted of -- just some
twitchy man acting kind of obsessive-compulsive or whatever.  Nothing in
that struck me as funny.  I'll take your word for it, though -- that if
I didn't like that silly scene, I wouldn't like the show.

EXACTLY.

He is the 'defective detective', and is totally OCD to the max.

It is an amusing character study of a man with many neuroses following a
nervous breakdown brought about by his wife's murder. who, nonetheless,
is an outstanding detective.

The woman with him is his nurse/aide/helper, without whom he couldn't
maneuver through life. So, there is pathos, comedy, tension, excitement,
a bit of everything. But you have to be ready to understand and love
Monk...he's not your usual detective.

    I have the same problem.  I was all hot for stuffed mushrooms but
realized there are only microwaves available and I don't really want to
serve my cow orkers chew toys.  I'm open to suggestions.  If all else
fails there's always the old sweet and spicy meata-balls in a Crock-pot
but I'm kind of bored with those.

It is in no way slapsticky. I hate slapstick. This is quite a bit more

        I'm glad you're enjoying him.  The worst part of being an
English teacher at the moment (aside from the 5am wake-up)
is that I have no time to read.  What really gets me is
seeing my students reading ... I sound a little wistful when
I ask if the book is good, I think :).

        Ah well, I'll get it all under control eventually.

I thought it was all about my three charming cats.  You don't deserve
chocolate cats.  You killed your pets so that you wouldn't be
inconvenienced in your old age while you travel the world.

Thanks.  I think that's what I'll do.  They are always popular.
Unrelated to the party, I've been wondering about gift-giving to the
employees at the nursing home.  Since there are tons of them, rotated
among the three wings for some reason -- meaning that my mother doesn't
have just a few <regulars>, it would be difficult, if not impossible, to
do individual gift-giving.  So maybe I should take a bunch of cookies or
something to the nursing station on her wing.

May I suggest h&c pinwheels?

  Ham & Cheese Pinwheels

 1 cup Calif. Dip (made from Lipton's dry onion soup -- recipe on box)
 1 pkg. (3-oz.) cream cheese, softened
 2 TBS chopped ripe olives
 6 slices cooked ham
 6 slices Swiss cheese

 In small bowl, blend Calif. dip with cream cheese & olives.
 Chill about 1 hour.  Spread mixture evenly on ham slices;
 top with cheese slices, then more dip mixture.  Roll up &
 wrap in waxed paper.  Chill at least 2 hours.  Cut each roll
 into 1/2" slices.
 (Doubling this recipe makes it easier to deal with the Calif. dip,
since 1 pkg of  soup makes 2 cups of dip.)

That wasn't WHY I killed them but it is why I don't replace them.  When I
get old I'll have pets again.

It really was all about my finding such cute chocolate things that I
could send to the two nice women who brought me chocolate and cookies
last winter/spring.

                 More Inexpensive Skin Care

Here's a tip that I learned from a Kiwi friend (a New
Zealander). With the hole in the ozone layer biggest over
Australia/New Zealand, their skin tends to age much faster
than up north. The ladies make small muslin pouches, add a
couple pinches of oatmeal, dampen with a little water, and
scrub the face and neck lightly. Oatmeal makes up a wonderful
cleansing lather, leaves the skin squeaky clean and leaves
behind powerful antioxidants, besides being cheap. Use fresh
oatmeal for every wash. Girls who have started this at a young
age end up with very few wrinkles and laugh lines into their
adulthood. For older women, it really slows down the aging
process. (Unfortunately, nothing has been found to cure it
yet...darn.)

Actually... he was neurotic in childhood, as we learn in the airplane episode.

Smokey, the cat, had feline leukemia. Goldie, the dog, was very old and
suffered from hip problems. That was hard.  Sometimes I think I hear her
out on the deck.

Maybe I'll ask the Director the next time I see him.  I can think of
only two people I know who have had relatives there -- my dental
hygienist, whose grandmother was there but who died a couple of months
ago -- the grandmother died, I mean, not my dental hygienist -- and a
secretary in Telecomm who brought a dog to the pet parade and said her
mother is there, but I've never seen her there any other time.  She's a
possibility of somebody to ask, though, since I see here in the basement
of my building fairly often.

This is something I've never quite understood.  I gather from the
content before the above that this is talking about reducing wrinkles.
Why does anybody care about reducing wrinkles?  I know that some people
do, but what I don't know is why.

Thanks for giving me the background.  I'll probably try it again
sometime -- if I remember, which I may well not.

Patience?  I'm not particularly interested in proving you wrong or
<whatever>.  But I do wonder what you mean by patience.  I wonder in two
regards -- (1) why does a tv show require patience, and (2) what makes
you think I'm impatient.

You won't answer, of course.  I feel grateful to people like Alyce who
give real answers to questions instead of cryptic whatevers.

It's amazing how cheap many of my colleagues are.  I know that from
having been directly involved in money-gathering for various gifts
through the years and from something my dept head said to me when I was
giving him money for the secretaries' gift certificates a couple of
weeks ago -- about how much more I gave than most other people.  I find
that very strange since I don't think I give an exhorbitant amount.

I do like that we now follow the wishes that I conveyed on behalf of the
main secretaries a few years ago.  They told me that they would really
love Walmart gift certificates instead of retaurant gift certificates
but that they didn't have the courage to tell the dept head that -- and
he was the one who had been getting the restaurant gift certificates.  I
conveyed the message diplomatically, and they've gotten Wmart gift
certificates ever after.  I also gave them Wmart gift certificates when
I retired as a thank-you and a slightly belated secretaries' day gift.

I've posted at least two.  I posted "Consolation"
(<http://www.bigsnap.com/p-ad-01.html>) during (I think) Block Party, and I
posted "Forgetfulness" (<http://www.bigsnap.com/p-qa-01.html>) for Rita
back when she was worrying about her symptoms of CRAFT.  I don't know what
Poets think about him, but I certainly enjoy him.

While I often grudgingly concur with "Pimp Daddy T-Bone's" assessment of
poems and poets, I think the Pimpster is spot off in this case.  T-Bone
probably can't stand Collins because the C-man is p*pular, and nothing
raises T-Bone's hackles quicker than an artist who is p*pular.

You called it exactly -- it is a detective show, and it is about an
obsessive-compulsive man. The scripts are only fair, kind of "Murder
She Wrote"-ish, but Tony Shalhoub's performances as Monk are so good
that the scripts don't matter much. I enjoy it and watch it if I
happen to be around, but it's not on my top-5 list.

My book club had our holiday get together on Sunday. We shared a meal at
John's Grill (an old haunt of Dashiell Hammett). Given that I haven't
finished the last three books we've read and my threatening tower of unread
books, I suggested we meet quarterly instead of monthly. It was agreed by
all. If they hadn't agreed, I would have had to abandon my little group and
left someone else with the pleasure of stewardship....

Reading's not much fun when you're on a deadline.

I had read one poem when I posted. Ligniere came over and made me good
food and just left.

Actually,       what he made me could inspire poetry! The first line would
be what I told him after taking my first bite: "You know, most of the
bad stories from my childhood start with cream of mushroom soup."

I like the scripts. I liked the heart surgeon one and the airplane one
a lot. (But I agree that a lot of it has to do with Tony Shalhoub.
It's funny--he was in another movie that was just awful. I don't even
remember what it was called, but I only watched as much as I did
because of him.)

The assholes next door have been leaving their big dog there.
Evidently he has the run of the house, but he's unhappy and lonely and
has been barking his head off. I'm afraid that this dog is
psychologically damaged. AND I'M NOT TAKING IT IN!!!!! It's not my
job, but I'm angry at them. I've considered phoning animal control.

If it's still there tomorrow, I'll go over to check on the water
situation. But I'm just pissed at them.

Ligniere came back because he left some things he needs tomorrow
morning, so we went over to talk to the neighbor. The son was there,
and we talked. He's not a bad kid, but damn! The funny little dog,
Cuddles, is MIA, as well as 2 of the cats. How can they be so
careless?!

I love the few Tai Chi exercises that I know.
I think I need to look further into that.
I used to do yoga years ago but age has
stiffened me too much for that.  I still work
out at Curves, but that is pretty much hard
physical discipline.  I need the inner as well.

Pilates, Doris, Pilates!!! Really. I've done Tai Chi, but Pilates is
the best inner/outer work I know. They don't talk about physical mind
for nothing.

As for age stiffening you... in some ways I'm more flexible now than I
was in my 20's. When I started Pilates, I was extremely inflexible,
but gradually loosened up and have stayed loose. I know from what
others have observed that it's like Carnegie Hall. (Practice,
practice, practice.) If you do that, you can remain flexible into your
90's.

I'm just a few blocks from Golden Gate Park and as I enter it from my
street, there's a small manmade lake that serves as the home for hordes of
chess-playing russian men, their babushka women, old men and little boys
operating motorized boats and some pushing small sail boats with sticks from
the edge of the lake...and scores of tai chi madness. All that and a hot dog
vendor in this small little area of the park, just across from the stables
and the buffalo. It's my favorite place to spend a weekend morning.

All the people practicing Tai Chi seem so peacefully focussed. Betty, come
on down and join them some Sat or Sun. Then, let's get some lunch at Cajun
Pacific.

Saw a sign today on a gym near here for "Yogilates." The word's
pretty gross, but the concept sounds intriguing... I'll probably give
'em a call and see what the deal is.

        I used the poem to start off my memory paper, I think.  I've
quit worrying about my CRAFT. I just accept that I'm so
smart lots of stuff falls out of my brain for lack of space.

        I think his popularity stems from his work being accessible
on the surface, but rewarding to those who can read further.
  Maya Angelou, for example, is accessible, but there's
nothing beyond the surface, which is why we Bougie Pig
Boomer Poets don't much respect her work.

references because I was recently out of school and studying
all that.  I'll have to put the new one on my mental list.

I think I'm having trouble waking up my brain this morning.  I'm
pondering this sentence and am still unsure of what it means.  First I
thought it meant that one might want to avoid getting wrinkles because
face-to-face contact might implant wrinkles on the other person.  Then I
decided it meant that we are inclined to see wrinkles on others more
than on ourselves.  That latter is true, no doubt, since we see
ourselves everyday.  Just like we're more likely to notice changes in
the appearances of people we haven't seen in a long time than of people
we see everyday.  But it doesn't change the fact that I don't really see
anything wrong with wrinkles.   I prefer laugh lines to frown lines, of
course, but in general I see wrinkles as a sign of having led an
interesting life.

Supposedly this one is different in many ways from the first one, but
most of the reviews I've seen of it say it's good, was "worth the wait"
(of ten years), etc.  I've also seen some negative reviews, though,
calling it long and rambling and childish and fake Faulkner and such.
Anyway, I've enjoyed the first few pages and am looking forward to
getting back to it, which probably won't be before next week.

        I think these criticisms echo the negative reviews for the
first book.  Although I'm not sure what the fake Faulkner
thing is about.

Mario is back.

http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/basketball/college/news/2002/12/10/austin_cleared_ap/

I just got my list of this week's Northwest cybersavers and noticed that
Newark is $159 (from Memphis).  I should drive to Memphis Saturday, fly
to NYC, stay at the Penta, walk across the street to the basketball
game, and come home Monday.  My houseguest could get along without me
Saturday-Sunday and go to a party as my substitute Saturday night if she
doesn't have other plans.  And I could probably even leave Spencer as
long as she was reliable about leaving him plenty of food and water for
Sunday night until my Monday return -- and she's a very reliable animal
person.

Then again, I'm not really going to do that.  Too much trouble, though
this is a nice time of year to go to NYC.  Maybe Mules would fly over
and meet me on top of the ESB.

I was thinking about this later and think it's *extremely* unlikely that
there would be such a money pool.  There are about as many employees as
there are residents, and my guess is that most of these residents aren't
likely to have anybody giving the staff gifts on their behalf.  I'll
nevertheless check on possibilities, of course.

I had recently started doing Tai Chi when we went to San Francisco for my
50th birthday.   We stayed at the Huntington Hotel on Nob Hill across from
Huntington Park and near Grace Cathedral.   When I looked out the window
the first morning of our stay, I saw many people doing Tai Chi in
Huntington Park.  Some were even doing the sword play.

I too get the Tip of the Day.   But I see they compare to "women who did
not exercise."   I'd guess my walking is just as bit as good at the Tai
Chi.  However, I'd think Tai Chi also helps to prevent falls in old age.  I
read a thing about how elderly people become shut-ins because of a fear of
falling.  They are developing some sort of shoes that provide constant but
imperceptible stimulation to the soles of the feet which lets people sense
leaning.  I know that here in Maine some elderly are especially fearful of
being out and about in the winter when sidewalks can be a tad slippery.

I may or may not qualify as elderly, but after seriously denting some ribs
a couple of years ago, I am more cautious and am a devoted user of ice
grips and a pointed walking/hiking staff in the winter.

So one of my coworkers is getting her degree at the local community college,
and this semester she's taking a literature course for which she has to write
papers. As I'm the technical writer here, she asked me to just go over one of
her papers for grammar and usage. Fine, I did. I then had the brilliant idea
to show her one of my college papers (all my college work I have here for just
such occasions) and chose one of the ones I wrote for my introduction to
literature course I took as a freshman.

I'm just glancing through the Works Cited list, and what do I see but "Dumas,
Bethany K. E. E. Cummings: A Remembrancee of Miracles. London: Vision Press,
1974."

Talk about shocking! (but in a good way)

Walking isn't supposed to be that good for building bone. No cite, I
read that recently somewhere. Didn't we have that discussion? It's the
hiking you do that would help.

Yes, though I still want to take a class.

If I don't gain 5 lbs. this week, it won't be the fault of the people who
keep brining cakes etc. to my loft and my department! We just received
three cakes - red velvet, Italian cream, and chocolate pecan - from
Thompson (who bought Harcourt Brace, who publish the Harbrace
Handbook). Last night, I received a huge basket of goodies from the
Patricia Neal folks - a thank you for filming Maria.

Aaaaaaarrrrrgghhhhhhhhhh!

I should have insisted on carrots and apples.

It's always nice to see him screw up.  Otoh, I do feel a little bit
sorry for him that he's being accused of racism when I don't think
that's where his comment came from (though I don't really know much of
anything about his attitudes toward race).  It might help if he'd
explain what he meant by "all these problems" (or whatever the phrase
was).  The problem, though, is that I don't think he knew what he
meant.  I don't really think he meant much of anything except that he
was trying to think of something laudful to say to a 100-yr-old
colleague.  So he said something that was supposed to come across as
"you're wonderful -- the world would be a better place if you had been
president or king or emperor or whatever."  It was a dumb thing to say,
especially dumb for a politician, but I don't think he was thinking of
any racial connotations when he said it.  Even if he were a racist,
which I'm not convinced that he is, he wouldn't have been *that* dumb --
dumb enough to blast it to the media.

He's in some minor shit locally, btw, for having done some recent
porking not for the state but instead for a Louisiana company his son
works for, one in competition with Mississippi companies that a porker
representing Mississippi should have been porking for instead of doing
family porking.

    Natalie and me cloning is an ugly sight.
    The best comment I've heard was "I'm pissed at the dumb son-of-bitch for
forcing me to agree with Al Sharpton."

No. Probably something in mid-January. The moving-in process has been
slowed considerably by my acquisition of That Thing That's Going
Around -- a particularly interesting one in that nobody gets that
they're sick at first; it doesn't have any of the usual flu symptoms
like upper respiratory distress or an upset stomach, so all you
notice is that you're exhausted, headachy and you ache all over. I
thought I'd just been pushing too hard and had exhausted myself;
someone else I talked to had thought it was migraine; someone else
thought it was sinusitis. Eventually, you talk to enough other people
and realize that it's a bug, and a nasty one at that. All the joints
in my hands ache -- it's like a preview of being 80.

I remember Jay telling me about a study that showed that the best
possible bone-building exercise was jumping up and down. Apparently
you only have to do it for a few minutes a day to get the effects.

I just discovered that one of the best bakeries in the Bay Area is

that's what seems to build bone.

I must have bones the size of Jumbo the Elephant's after this move.
They finally got the elevator working last Thursday -- just in time
for me to have finished moving almost all my stuff up here. (During
the move, I gained 14 lbs. and lost 3% of my body fat -- I feel quite
sure that I'm more muscular right now than I was when I was working
out with free weights 3x/week.)

Dunno. You can not exercise and still be quite active if you garden
and do stuff around the house. There are studies that show overall
activity is more important than exercise.

It's why my grandparents moved to California--they saw what their

I bet--the muscle is probably more evenly distributed, too.

Abstract:

This is the first history of dictionaries of English for foreign
learners, from their beginnings in Japan and East Asia in the 1920's
to the present day. Anthony Cowie describes the evolution of the major
titles, and their fight for dominance of what soon became an enormous
market. He shows how developments in lexical and grammatical theory
crucially affected the content and structure of ELT dictionaries.

No, it's *activity*. Exercise is structured activity--or as M-W says
"bodily exertion for the sake of developing and maintaining physical
fitness". Activity is exertion for the sake of accomplishing the
activity. This is not at all a subtle distinction.

Ugh.  Perhaps pilates would cure it.

Of course. Wordslers are always invited to my open houses. Maybe
it'll be on a weekend so you can come anyway -- between my sectional
couch and my futon, I can sleep three or four guests.

I doubt it. What would probably cure it is taking a day or two away
from unpacking and organizing, but I can't relax when all my stuff is
in boxes.

That's the whole point of the flap, isn't it?  The EO used a very stupid

I just got an e-mail from Craigslist saying that my personal ad had
been "flagged" by "several readers" as "inappropriate." Can someone
who lives in the real world please tell me what's wrong with this?:

----

Sex Geek Seeks Same

OK, I've been around several different blocks, most of them more than
once. I'm a kinky bi woman in my mid-40s, a professional sex educator
and writer who has a lifelong fascination with all forms of
sexuality. I've done BDSM (my primary orientation -- I'm a switch),
bisexuality, a bit of tantra, a bit of swinging, role-playing and
genderfuck, multiple relationships, group sex... even heterosexual
vanilla monogamy, although that's a block I don't intend to go around
again. I'm careful with my emotional and physical health and want to
be around other folks who are too.

I'm not looking for a long-term relationship, but I'd love to have a
few more people in my life for friendship, cuddling, experimentation
and just general hanging out. I don't necessarily need more play
partners, although if you're kinky that's fine too -- but open-minded
vanillas are more than welcome to reply.

If I got to design my ideal guy he'd be bi or even gay, 40+, over 6',
over 250 lbs. and furry. But if you're extremely smart, nurturing,
honest with yourself and others, funny, and socially skilled, I don't
care if you look like Woody Allen. Bonus points if you love movies,
dogs and/or bookstore-browsing.

If looks are really important to you, I'm probably not your lady --
it's not that I'm hard to look at, it's that I don't seem to connect
well with people who care a lot about physical appearance. However,
just FYI, I'm medium height, chunky/muscular in build, auburn-haired
(for now) and fair-skinned. Most people think my best features are my
happy grin and my large brown eyes. My personal presentation is
definitely on the butch side -- many folks assume I'm entirely
lesbian when they first meet me -- although I enjoy femming out for
special occasions.

Please don't reply if you're looking for a committed domme or sub --
that particular relationship style isn't a good fit for me right now.
Also, please pass this ad by if you're monogamous or prone to
jealousy, if you haven't spent most of your life supporting yourself
in reasonable comfort, if you freak out or withdraw when confronted
by strong emotion, or if you're already in a relationship that would
require that you conceal your friendship with me.

If this is of any interest to you, drop me a line to tell me a bit
about yourself. I'll look forward to hearing from you!

        I have now both heard an audio clip and seen a video clip of the
Trent Lott gaffe, and both of them retained the enthusiastic applause for
the statement right before the gaffe.  What I find myself wondering is
what the audience reaction was to Lott's gaffe.  Both the clips cut off
immediately after the <statement in question>.  More applause, suggesting
that few if any in the room made the now-obvious association?  Awkward
murmuring, suggesting that many people "got it" and were uncomfortable?
Somewhere in the middle?  Who is keeping us from hearing the crowd's
reaction, and why?

You should read some of them.  Janet's is mild, and no, I don't see
anything wrong with it. I like honesty.

        I'm not sure what the usual standards are at Craigslist, of which
I have never heard before.  I can't see anything wrong with it.  But then,
I don't think I live in the real world.  There are so many things that
some people could probably point to and say "inappropriate":

* Any mention of sex whatsoever
* Any mention of non-hetero orientation whatsoever
* Any mention of kink whatsoever
* Any mention of poly whatsoever
* The use of the dreaded 'F' word

Take care,

What a top notch day it's been for me! With the help of my CASA kids
attorney, we've convinced the Dept of Family Services to place both kids
(brother & sister) in the same foster home...despite their ongoing
insistence they would never support it. Thank god for the amazing foster
parent my CASA girl has. And thank god for a Dept willing to bend the rules
and break a few in their effort. After nearly 4 years, B & R will be in the
same home! It's truly amazing. It's temporary and based on me securing a
signature from the foster mom to be a temporary legal guardian, and also
conditional (30 days) on the boy going back to school and minding the rules
(mostly curfew related) that the foster mom makes. But, all in all, I'm
totally hopeful and absolutely thrilled.

I don't know what craiglist is but perhaps it's inappropriate because it's too long, too
honest, and too literate.

Craigslist is a general-interest classified ad service -- actually,
one of the Bay Area's great small-business success stories (Craig
started it up as a little bulletin board so that his friends could
find jobs and apartments, and it just growed). The ad ran under
"Women Seeking Men."

I'm shocked there was such a ruckus about your ad. It's much nicer than most
of the ones on CL. Good grief, most are straight porn fantasies written to
no one in particular. Your ad is very sane. I'm sure if Craig read it
himself, he'd say the same. Appeal their decision.

I did so. Apparently ads get taken down by readers, not by staff. The
staff member who e-mailed me said he couldn't see anything wrong with
the ad, and suggested I post it again -- which I've done. We'll see
if the same thing happens this time.

The ad's drawn a whole lot of responses, mostly of the predictable "U
sound HOT, call me" variety, but several witty and thoughtful ones
from fellows who seem to be good fits for what I'm looking for. Now I
get to work responding to them all <mixed emotions>...

We are awaiting a big storm. It has begun to sleet. This is to be
followed by ice, and then 6-12" of snow later tonight. I fear power
loss, because then this will be a cold house. Anyway, the point is, if
you don't hear from me, it might be because there is no computer juice.

Just heard from them again -- someone flagged the repost. I really
don't need any more responses for now, but this is pissing me off.
(Is it paranoid to wonder if my "adversary" is another woman who
doesn't like sluts like me poaching on, um, virgin territory?) It'll
be interesting to see what response I get from their administrator.

I didn't say I couldn't "stand him", I just thought the one poem
I read kind of sucked. However, spot on--if I don't like someone's
work, that's pretty much the reason why.

    I've heard one audio clip that ran about a second longer than the others,
and "somewhere in the middle" is about what it sounded like.  It was obvious
that the response was muted.

    Editors, but you're not supposed to ask questions like that.

We talked about this recently while you were gone.  Welcome back, by the
way.  I argued in the recent discussion that although jumping up and down
is indeed a very good bone-building exercise it is not recommended for
those who already have thin bones or those who are already elderly.

Yup -- Jay gave it to me for Christmas last year (at my request, I
hasten to add). It's wildly inconsistent from one day to the next,
but it's pretty good at detecting trends.

        More likely somebody objecting to a woman looking for a gay man.

        In any case, I don't see anything wrong with it.

        Woo hoo!  Good luck.  I have one student who lives in a group
home that is in our district, and I'm happy to have her back
from detention.  I also had two students ask me to move them
up to the college prep level English.  I'm thrilled.  It's
never been a matter of ability for them, but focus and
motivation.

In Los Angeles, a group of celebrities including the actors Martin
Sheen, Hector Elizondo and Tony Shalhoub turned out to add high-profile
support to the [anti-war] movement. More than 100 entertainers have
signed a letter to President Bush appealing for a diplomatic rather than
a military response in Iraq.

For some reason, this is making me laugh. I think it's the idea that
someone would object to it!

Not only do I finally manage to get both kids in the same home, but as their
Educational Surrogate Parent, I'm going to be part of an IEP meeting for the
girl to take her out of Special Ed and move her into all mainstream courses.
As you said, it's not about ability....in both their cases, they've been
deteremined to be affected by the emotional upheavals in their lives. She's
been doing very well and has tested out of Spec Ed. Now, we have to get him
back in school and see how well he manages. All in all, it's been a great
day. I did learn their mother was recently in jail for stealing from the bar
she used to frequent (as a regular). Now, they won't have her back, but
apparently, they dropped the charges. Now, both kids get to go to Alabama
with their foster parents to celebrate xmas with the foster parents family.
Better than being left behind. Tonight, I take the boy (with his clothes) to
his new home, get a signature from the Foster Mom and sit down with them for
a talk. Tomorrow, I bring the paperwork to court. And then, it's *done* (at
least for the 30 day tryout period).

I don't think anybody flags ads on CL because they're "too long" --
many are longer than mine. (I think mine's about 7", uncut.)

I was on a list where I kept getting mysteriously unsubscribed.
After many months of sane non-paranoid explanations to myself,
it turned out that there indeed was an "adversary"--the little
list-owner bitch. Why didn't he like me there? Not a damn clue.

Make it sound a little less like a Janety Hardy auto-hagiography,
and it might survive...

Um. A personal ad is *supposed* to be an auto-hagiography. I wrote
that one fairly carefully so that I wouldn't be immediately
recognizable from the details -- in fact, one of the first responses
I got was from a guy I've known for three or four years. (I told him
nicely that if there'd been any chemistry between us we'd have
figured it out before now.)

The guy at Craigslist says, "Hmmmm, hard to say. I don't want to ruin
the content but maybe make it less clear that you're seeking more
then one person. Also, maybe change the title a bit......... What do
ya think?"

I'm just not going to bother for now; I've got enough responses to
keep me busy for a few days at least. Although I may put up an ad
simply asking politely if anybody knows what might be objectionable
in my original ad.

I didn't post that suggestion because I'm on a raging anti-wrinkle campaign.
I just liked the naturalness and mildness of using oatmeal as a cleanser.

Really? I think it's supposed to be an ad--good ads cut the crap
even though it might be important to the person. For instance,
you don't need a preface to a description of how you look. Saying
"I'm not bad looking but if you are obsessive about looks then
don't bother because I don't get along with people like that"--
that's pretty hagiographic... Let people figure it out; you are
not misleading them by not stating this crucial fact. By the way,
it IS true--it's hard to tell what you want. Must have gotten
lost in the over-elaborate description of Janet Hardy.

Note: none of this explains why it's "inappropriate" ... the
subject has changed

A guy once told me he was an "etymology" kind of guy. That had a greater
effect on me than a dozen roses, a walk on the beach in the moonlight, or an
armful of romantic CDs.

Another massacre happened today, with statements that we are in the
black as a result. Not that I disbelieve that ... Of course it's bad
to see good people out of work, but it was about time. For a few, I
think it's good, actually. Should have been going to school anyway,
and I think they CAN.

My feelings I will keep to myself. But life is going to be different
again. No pay cuts, but there is clearly going to be a heavier load
now. Down to 14 people! I am the only one here who has seen a smaller
number. I also have the dubious honor of being the oldest most constant
person in the freakish but typical history of this "IT" company.

Rumors of moving to a smaller office are also in the air ... we shall
see.

Same here. That's why I got the shoe spikes from the Vermont Country Store
and also those YakTrax y'all recommended. I haven't used the YakTrak yet,
however, but I did use the spikes once last week on a walk at lunchtime.

More good news!

My friend's new husband landed a job and will not have to return to prison.
Long story there but he had only 10 days left to find a job. He just kept
pounding the pavement. Now, there's a lesson. He's got espionage and a bank
robbery conviction...and he landed a gig in SF. It only pays $7/hr but it's
a gig and keeps him out of prison. The best of all is that they get a great
discount and with all their pets...it'll be handy.

I also got word that my cousins in Oakland are going back east and I get to
housesit for them for three months starting Feb 1. It's a glamourous old
house from the 20s and in impeccable condition. It's what I've always
thought of as my grandma's house and if my luck holds out, and they like
their sojourn back east, I may get a chance to buy it and have it for my own
:)

To celebrate this wonderful day, I'm joining my friend Cait at
www.cajunpacific.com  Now that she doesn't have to worry about her husband
being sent back to the big house, she'll be able to sleep better.

Where there was fat, now there are wrinkles. Not pretty but better than fat.

Interesting question.  It seems unlikely to me that there would be huge
applause since a statement like that suggests that whoever won was
<bad>, which is not something a general group would be likely to cheer,
even if they didn't at that moment think back to who it was or have an
opinion one way or the other about Truman.  That's another reason it was
a just plain dumb statement to make.

I don't know what Craigslist is.  I do see how the ad would be
considered <inappropriate> by people who disapprove of anything
suggesting anything other than <traditional family values>.  But somehow
I don't think that's what Craigslist is -- that that would be the

I took the day off because I have to work Saturday.  Traffic was the pits
so I didn't make it to Emeryville  to do some planned shopping but I went
to  Costco which was a bust.  I didn't feel generous enough to spend
the  money on a CD player for my SIL so I basically wasted my day off.
Bonnie has made three seven letter words in a row in Scrabble. My daughter
had a miscarriage and now has an infection which she is being treated
for.  They didn't have any crab at Costco so I bought a chicken.  I went to
Toys R Us and felt totally discombobulated but found some 3-D washable
paint pens at Target for my niece. Small pox vaccinations at my work place
are going to be voluntary so far.  They think we should be inoculated
because we will care for patients. They arrested a woman in Vallejo for
killing  a mother and stealing her baby.    What was the question?

What she did was totally appropriate.  Jay is probably behind this. What a

I do have about 22 hrs. worth. I am more concerned about heat. Otoh,
maybe the weatherman will be wrong. Already he is saying that the snow
will be north of here. But...he said 15 minutes ago that around here we
will have up to 3/4" ice (like in the Carolinas). I so don't want that.
Would prefer snow. They are interrupting the TV every 15 minutes with
warnings.

Do your student workers get the same gifts as your regular secretaries?
Ours get lesser gifts.

Doesn't matter what the question was.  Your day qualifies as shitty.
Interesting how you packaged the shittiest part in the middle of the

Start being more picky.  You do care.  Life is short and you are probably
going to die young because you smoke. Stop being a martyr.   Do plan to
quit smoking, btw?  Just curious.  Call Doris.  You have to do it for
yourself, of course.  Natalie, it really stinks.

We decided that it would not be a good idea for all to know who
contributed and in what amounts - partly because there are often very
good reasons why a given person either does not contribute or contributes
little at a particular time. One person knows, because someone had to do
the bookkeeping. But none of the rest of us know. I imagine 40+ of us
contributed.

Interesting judgment. How much do you think 40 or so people should have
aised? I thought $1400 total and $247 per secretary was pretty good, but I
am willing to be instructed.

$35.00 was average.  Kick in at least $50.00.  What do the secretaries make

I disagree. The people have spoken and they have said that
he is totally evil. Please add you own opinion and consult

I don't see this ... I will contribute to, what, five different
such funds. Should I spend $250? And I have a fairly paying job.
Academics probably don't get paid anything.

No. Five different funds is too many.  Why so many?

        Inclusion is the new terminology.  If they have CWC, that
would be a good option to explore. And be choosey about
their teachers.  You have a lot of power in an IEP.

        Well, I know enough about some of my kids to know that
studying for an exam on Dante's Inferno is the least of
their worries, but in many ways getting their education in
spite of everything, even if the actual assignments seem
irrelevant at the time, is really their first concern for
the future.  Just beat them through high school.  I have
some kids that it feels like my role is to just force them
through the course kicking and screaming all the way.  Very
draining, but worth it.

It is sleeting like mad. This is the first time that Spike has not
wanted to go out, even in heavy rains he hasn't seemed to mind, and he
loves snow. But not this.

Anyway, I am going to unplug this machine, just in case. Maybe by so
doing, I will keep the power on.

I have guessed that 40+ contributed - it may actually have been as few
as 20 or so. I don't know. Many are assistant professors in their first
jobs, and some are adjuncts. $50 or more on a few days' notice would be
steep for some, I think. I do think that an unexpected cash gift of $247
is pretty nice.

I know exactly what all staff salaries are - they vary quite a bit - just
as professor's salaries do.

Perhaps salaries are higher where you live.

Do you have five different jobs?  Most of us have only one.  And I would
say that $50 is a <normal> amount to give for the secretaries' xmas
gifts.

I am a social animal. Although, I must say, the must-do ones are
only two--the condo staff fund and the garage staff fund.

Mr Willie Walker, is included in the condo staff, thankfully.

Why a few days' notice?  Don't you anticipate this as an annual event?

Why unexpected?  Are the secretaries new this year?

Yes, we do. But this year, we gave everyone only a few days'
notice. Things have to start sometime, somewhere.

Ye. I occasionally look at cigarette prices and laugh out loud.  When I
started smoking, I was working parttime for a wholesale company that
allowed employees to buy cigarettes at cost. I paid less than $2 for a
carton.

During my first year as a grad student, when I had almost no money except
for bare necessities, I was provided with tobacco by a couple from
Kentucky, who had brought a large supply with them. I bought a Bugler kit
and rolled my own for a year for almost nothing.

I cannot imagine starting to smoke today, even if we knew nothing of the
health risks. I would not pay today's prices for cigarettes.

Unless I were addicted, of course.

>Where there was fat, now there are wrinkles. Not pretty but better than fat.

Even when I'm thin I don't get wrinkles. My skin just has sort of a
spongy quality that makes it un-wrinkly. Also makes it very soft, and
very difficult to get clamps on. None of this is any of my doing --
it's pure heredity.

Apparently they cancel ads if there are complaints, with no
administrative intervention at all.

The URL that Betty sent was for "casual encounters," which is where
the admin suggested I run my ad. However, I'm not looking for casual
encounters; I'm looking for fuck buddies, which is another matter
entirely. But I can just imagine how fast the ad would disappear if I
actually said "fuck buddy."

Which crucial fact?

You've picked out the one part of the ad with which I felt most
uncomfortable, actually. The fact is that I'm profoundly insecure
about my appearance -- I don't like the way I look, never have,
probably never will -- and would not deal well with someone strongly
appearance-oriented, even if s/he thought I looked great. So I wanted
to say "no looks junkies," but also wanted to make it clear that I
wasn't asking that because I'm hideous.

I feel quite encouraged. A good ad attracts qualified leads and turns
off unqualified ones. Given that you are not the kind of person I
want to go out with, but that I've gotten quite a few responses from
people who are, it seems that I've succeeded in writing a good ad.

Not his style at all. He might send me a huffy and wounded e-mail,
but he's not that kind of sneaky. No, there's some puritanical type
behind this, and I doubt that s/he knows me personally.

Someone asked for this, right?

There were ten people in attendance, 3 men (2 gay) and 7 women. Ages
ranged from late 20's to mid 70's. 2 dogs, 1 husky (1/4 wolf), and one
dustmop dog. (At one point, the husky had the smaller dog on his back,
showing his stomach, and the smaller dog was trying to say uncle and
the husky wasn't listening.)

Anyway. It was good. Everyone read a poem, and we talked about them. I
was there for 3 hours. It was an incredibly diverse, incredibly
focused group. I'm going back, and next time, I'm bringing a friend.

I would guess your ad. But I still don't get it. Maybe our Token Gay

What's the difference between a casual encounter and a fuck buddy? Are
you thinking that 'casual encounter' means one-night stand?

Yes, that or sex without emotional connection. To me, a fuck buddy is
a good friend with whom one can have sex but with whom one has no
intention of partnering. Before I met Jay, I had a circle of about
half a dozen fuck buddies in Sacramento, and found that to be a very
good fit for me -- I'd like to re-establish that kind of life again.

Gotcha.

Well, I haven't looked at the site, but I can see that some people
might lump everything that's not romantic and monogamous under
'casual'. But I'm hardly an expert.

LOL. They were in San Jose. Nice try, elephant boy! No, these people

I am off to a meeting in Bremen tomorrow, and even if it is a North Sea port and not a baltic one like Lübeck I mightstill find some Lübeck marzipan. And probably add some glühwein to that. It was -16 C at the airport in Oslo yesterday when I met Ingjerd and today in Oslo it is -11 while it was -8 here yesterday so at the airport it might be down below -20. I am going to be protectively clothed when I go to the airport tomorrow and then I can peel off some as I thaw.

Espen,

Portobellos are on sale this week at a local grocery. Is there a way
to keep them longer than a few days? Can they be frozen?

Yes, they can be frozen (and they can be dried). But if you freeze them you should probably cut them in pieces and pre-treat them: blanch them or steam them, so you won't have the whole portobellos which you can treat as if they were fresh/raw after thawing. One page with instructions for freezing mushrooms is here:

<http://www.msue.msu.edu/msue/imp/mod01/01600286.html>

If you heat them with fat they will keep for a shorter time in the freezer.

Portobellos are fairly dry compared to for instance wild mushrooms. With wild mushrooms I usually put them in a dry pan, put on full heat and then wait until the mushrooms (or rather mushroom pieces) have shrunk and all (almost) the water has come out and most of it has evaporized - then I freeze all of this in portion packs. When no fat has been added this will keep for at least two years.

So were the membrane-spankers, I recall. Very down to earth.
Or was it the hot tubbers?

Thank you. I am a little dull with a cold still on: what is the word I should have used? (Still ESL-student).

Espen

Hmm.  Both of the above replies suggest that perhaps memory spans in
Kville are less than a year.

I don't.  I don't ever see the garbage people in this neighborhood.  I
sometimes saw the ones in my previous neighbhorhood because they always
came right at 7, often as I was just pulling out of the driveway.  They
come later in this neighborhood apparently.

How does one throw away a garbage can?  I have one that's useless since
it fills with water when it rains, but it occurred to me that if I put
it out to be hauled off by the garbage people, it's unlikely it will be
hauled off because lots of people put garbage cans out.  Maybe they'd
notice the change since I never put garbage cans out and since there
wouldn't be any garbage in it.  But I still bet they wouldn't take it.
Maybe I should give it to the Salvation Army.

Unrelated to garbage cans, I'm trying to figure out why my mother has a
xmas card with her own signature sitting on a shelf in her room where
various xmas cards that arrived yesterday are stitting.  Whoever put
them there didn't save the envelopes.  All I can figure is that one of
the ones she sent came back because of a wrong address, although its
insert -- the letter-- was nowhere around.  Wish I knew where that card
came from.  When I asked Mama, she just nodded and said, "Isn't that a
cute card."

        Karolin sent a christmas package loaded with marzipan and

can't think of what it is called right now, but it is a
wooden nativity scene with candles and the candles power the
windmill.  Very cool.

Here's the Washington Post's answer to Tom's question re the
reaction to Lott's statement.  I didn't see this online -- a
colleague found it and printed it.  It was on p. A06 of Saturday,
December 7.  Written by Thomas B. Edsall.

"The gathering, which included many Thurmond family members and
past and present staffers, applauded Lott when he said, 'we're
proud' of the 1948 vote.  But when he said 'we wouldn't have
had all these problems over the years' if Thurmond had won,
there was an audible gasp and general silence."

It looks like you combined two words:  evaporated and vaporized.  I agree

= and all (almost) the water has come out and most of it has evaporized

I am finding this difficult:

evaporated = convert to vapor, but for me, it has the sense of,
like water on the sidewalk, natural dissapation without an
explicit source of heat

vaporized = convert to vapor, but for me it has the sense of what
zap guns do, or what happens in a chem lab (though that would
also be my kitchen)

I guess I would have said "boiled off", though "dried up" is the
first thing I thought of, though I don't really like it much.

We awoke to the "no-school-today" horn.  There is a little more than an
inch of very wet snow; with the temperature now at 34F, what else we get
today should be rain.  This must have hit us just before daybreak.  The
forecast still calls for 4-7 inches but I suspect that that is for the
mainland; probably wouldn't be a good day to drive to Bangor.

Actually, this was, I think, the sort of error a native speaker would make,
especially in speech.

You've formed what Lewis Carroll called a portmanteau word, in this case a
combination of "evaporated" and "vaporized".  (The former is, I think, the
word that has the meaning you intended.)

No, the woman who hosted the Thanksgiving party I went to.

That dog is moving to Dripping Springs this weekend, and I hope he'll
be very happy there, because he isn't happy here.

Jane Goodall was amusing when she talked about dogs last night. She
said that having her dog prepared her for understanding chimps.

I'm here and the lights stayed on. It was a huge storm, but fast-from
about 8pm-3am. We didn't get the ice--we got the sleet I mentioned,
followed by 6" of snow, the really wet and heavy kind, and it came down
at about 2" an hour they say. It is so heavy that I cannot remove it
from my front step. I have a little snow shovel so that I can at least
clean that step, but not today. Last winter and so far this year I had
been able to. It is 40, so a little is melting, but I need a shoveler
because it is not all going to melt, by any means. I hope that Reilly
gets here before dark to do this as I must get out tomorrow to bank and
grocery. Meals on Wheels cancelled due to weather.

ARe you getting the storm now? Looked like it on the weather map.

I'm glad you are o.k.   And please don't even try to move such heavy, wet
snow.  We are indeed getting the storm now.  It's a wet snow, falling
intermittently.  I don't think it will amount to seven or even five
inches.  No sleet or ice.   I think school was canceled here today because
of the timing of the storm.  We didn't start getting much at all until 5
a.m. which probably didn't give them enough time to clear the streets
before the school buses would have had to get going.

What the hell are you talking about? Do all people in MIssissippi remember
things that have never occurred? Well, given the news lately, some do

In the Bay Area, "cross-orientation" play is fairly common, if not
yet the norm. Some gay men will do nonsexual BDSM with women, some
will do non-intercourse sex (as one of my friends memorably said, "As
long as Tab A doesn't go into Slot B"), and some consider themselves
"bisexual but homoaffectional" -- IOW, they enjoy having sex with
either gender but only fall in love with men. Ditto dykes with men,
and hets with same-sex partners. I really enjoy that kind of
fluidity, and anyone who is well suited to me probably does too --
but that doesn't make much difference if some yutz keeps yanking my
ad :/

I used to have one of those, a little brass one that had chimes built
into it. I loved it, but I think it was a gift from someone in
Frank's family so it went to him during the breakup.

    Small communication kerflugel here this morning leads me to ask a
nomenclature question.  We pretty much agreed on what a wall calendar is
but fell down when ordering "desk" calendars.  I meant what the
department secretary calls a "flip" calendar, but she thought I meant
one of those big flat honkers that practically cover the whole desk.
Which is it, and, if so, what do you call the other kind?

The big flat honker is a certain type of desk calendar the "blotter
calendar".

Is Dripping Springs a town, a subdivision, a campground, a place of

That's why I first asked whether this occurred every year.  You said
yes.  Yet this year there were only a few days notice and the gifts were
unexpected.  I don't see any other way to interpret that than to
conclude the memory spans are quite short.

No - you asked whether it WOULD happen every year.

Did your Secret Santa recipient survive?


====================================================================

Another massacre happened today, with statements that we are in the
black as a result. Not that I disbelieve that ... Of course it's bad
to see good people out of work, but it was about time. For a few, I
think it's good, actually. Should have been going to school anyway,
and I think they CAN.

My feelings I will keep to myself. But life is going to be different
again. No pay cuts, but there is clearly going to be a heavier load
now. Down to 14 people! I am the only one here who has seen a smaller
number. I also have the dubious honor of being the oldest most constant
person in the freakish but typical history of this "IT" company.

Rumors of moving to a smaller office are also in the air ... we shall
see.

I remember asking whether you didn't anticipate this as an annual event
-- i.e., know about it all year from year to year.  I can anticipate
even now that our annual giving to the secretaries will occur in Dec.
03, just as I anticipated a year ago or even ten years ago that it would
be happening this year, even though the call for contributions wasn't
put out until fairly recently.

I've never seen anybody burn money, although it has no doubt occurred.
The things I see burned up routinely, in addition to cigarettes, are
wood, candles, and such.

I haven't really been poking around aspectual things all this time.  I
got my houseguest on her way to meet the people she was supposed to meet
at 5:30, dug around in my closet for something to wear to tonight's
concert, and ate an asparagus sandwich.  Came back to the computer for a
few more minutes before getting ready to go hear some good violinists.
The Starkville Symphony Orchestra isn't the greatest in the country, but
these two violinists are pretty good, one a Julliard graduate, the other
a Boston Conservatory student.  They're daughters of some good friends
of mine.

Meanwhile, back to proof that I don't ignore aspect:

************
In a series of articles based on research in rural and urban areas of
Texas, Bailey and Maynor reported
that this aspect marker was not characteristic of rural older blacks,
who like the speakers of the ex-slave narratives, used
invariant be as a simple alternant of finite am, is, are (Bailey and
Maynor 1985, 1987, 1989). They argued that the aspect
marker is actually a product of recent divergence of AAVE and other
dialects, and is found primarily among younger speakers
in the inner cities where rural blacks had migrated from the rural
South.
************
from: http://www.ling.upenn.edu/phono_atlas/RFR.html

The beginning of that discovery I made right here on the MSU campus,
btw, standing in front of the Union talking to a group of black
students.

Thank you, Bonnie and Clyde. You are making my sig come true.:)
Seriously--I cried so hard when I opened the box that I have a
headache now. I am enormously touched.

(It's hugely lovely wreathe, complete with red ribbon, pine cones, and
mistletoe. It's so lovely, I'm not ready to put it outside yet...

I'm so sorry about your daughter's miscarriage and all the sadness that
comes with it.... a huge loss.

Bonnie's made 7 bingos in a row?! I'm impressed. She's lucky and talented :)

I love the chickens at Costco....much plumper than the ones at Safeway.

I didn't get nearly enough sleep last night so I'm dragging, but I did three
things CASA related today and now I'm making a nice veggie/tofu stirfry. I'm
craving veggies.

Yes! It really is the perfect wreathe. I'm glad I got Ligniere to help

Just lucky.  And it was only three in a row.  But it was the first three
plays of the game which left the score something like 230 to 24.  It's hard
to come back from that.  That game is over.  Our convention is that the
loser starts the next game.   And so Betty did late this afternoon.  My
first play on that game was "invades", using up all seven of my
letters.   On my second play I made "infaunae".   Betty is probably
pissed.  I know I am when she does that to me.  She usually has the luck of
a demon.

Yes. But things are different in Austin. Bizarrely different.

I thought I did. You're participating in a Secret Santa exchange with
bizarro rules like no alcohol. Who would do that willingly?

Who would give alcohol to someone s/he doesn't know well?
And that makes me wonder about Marie and the garbage men's beer. But

Before we "never mind" on the topic, perhaps Tushar would be kind enough to

The group I'm in prefers an all-female attendance. Not my preference at all.
But, I'm going along with it. I don't think they want to deal with what they
expect would be a change in dynamic. I think our club would be improved with
male minds.

On a NPR show yesterday, the host (I don't remember who) used the word
"potentiated"...as in something potentiated something else.....made it
possible.

Can this possibly be right? It reminds me of "conversated." It seems all
wrong to me.

I don't see how you can blame NPR for a word that has been around
since 1817. Never mind. Of course you can. You can blame anybody
for anything, if you're of a mind to.

Try again. Get real. No one is *blaming* NPR "for a word."

I refer to my own opinion of the nauseating register and tone of language
inherent in the majority its programming.

>Never mind. Of course you can. You can blame anybody
for anything, if you're of a mind to.

Why, thank you, for the permission.

And you also have mine to disagree.

Okay, I decided not to wait for Lingiere, and tried to hang the
wreathe myself. It's too heavy for the suction-cup hook that's on my
door. How do y'all hang your wreathes?

I just bought a small hostess giftie for the holidays at Cost Plus --
packages of red wooden clothespins decorated with Santa and snowman
faces :)

Ben & I also did the annual Weird Ornament purchase while we were
there, although it's odd not having Miles around to help. This year's
take: a wonderful little wooden elephant that looks like it's rolling
its eyes, a glass jack-o-lantern with a witch's hat (!), and an
articulated wooden frog painted with wonderful detail.

Wish I could find a weird tree skirt, but I don't think such things
exist. Probably I'll get around to making one sometime.

I have a wooden screen/storm door.  I screw a hook into the wood.  Come to
think of it, I think it is a nail that stays in the door year 'round.  One
could also use filament line and tie it over the top somehow.  Is there
really a final e on wreath ??

It's "casual" if the fuck-buddy-hood lasts longer than most
marriages, and if you care for one another deeply? Another thing I
don't understand, I guess :(

One kind of cool thing: at a munch a couple of months ago, I
introduced myself to a guy just because I found him so physically
attractive -- 6'5" and bearlike. He answered the ad -- it took us two
or three rounds of correspondence before we figured out that we'd
already met.

First, I spell them "wreaths" ;)

Then I put a small nail, as close as possible to the color of the
door, into the door at the appropriate height, and just leave it
there from one year to the next.

A small nail is not going to hold this sucker. I can't afford to wreck

I think of you. Fondly.:)

I think I have some really good screws somewhere, but I just
remembered that Ligniere has my drill. This is going to be An Event, I
can see now. I love this wreath, it smells so wonderful.

It's a distracto braino. It's indefensible.

Use a brass round head screw, long enough to let a little bit protrude,
upon which you hang the wreath. It will not ruin the door. Nine out of
ten doors have a wreath nail or screw year around.

No. You don't use a drill for a wood screw! Just start the hole with a
wee tap of a nail. Remove nail, screw in screw.

That sounds nice, actually.

This door came with a suction cup hook that I used for a hanging thing my sister
made (which is actually quite nice) last year. It's not quite up to
the wreath, however. (And I give kudos to the wreath-maker--I've
dropped it from a height about 4 times now, and it's still in good
shape.)

Whatever. I do all my screwing with the drill.

I think that I need to gain about a foot in height before I can do
this, though.

It defeats the purpose. The threads of the woodscrew are meant to bite
into the wood so it holds well. If you drill a hole, then that can't
happen. Do as I say! When you are putting anchors in a plaster wall,
then you can drill holes for them, but not for wood screws. Please.

You live in the wrong century, and you might need to ask mem to make room
for you up in his tree.

In all fairness, this is a usage that seems to have gone out fashion before
coming back into it.

However, you may still rail against "conversate" without being accused of
anachronism.

I've spent time with you, Bad Betty. It's hard for me to imagine a man
dominating you, conversationally.

        If I do it right, the certificate is a subset of the degree.
  It depends how the classes fall.  I may finish the cert.
first, or I may finish both at the same time.  The latter is
more likely since the Gateway Wriiting Inst. is only
offerred in the summer, and it's a beast of a thing to do,
so I'll hold off on it until next summer.

Didn't have time to check mail after last night's concert.  And now I've
gotta go to Tupelo to have my cruise-control installed.  And am talking to
my houseguest at the moment.  Hope to catch up with mail tonight, except
that I'm supposed to go out tonight but am probably going to not.
Anyway, y'all should hold the interesting conversation to a minimum until
I have time to catch up.

Wreath making is an art up here.  It's also an important source of early
winter jobs.   Some of the people who make wreaths are the same people who
did blueberry picking and processing in the late summer.  Kathy, the
chambermaid at the Hearthside, spent two years in Downeast Maine, up the
coast from here, doing blueberries and then wreathing.  She told me about
how they tip trees to get the greens.  It's quite an art.  You have to know
just what kind of branches to cut the tip from so that the branch will grow
back in the next season to a double tip.

You will notice that the wreath is really double with a complete
back.  That's the best way.

One does wonder. And yet, you never mentioned using a screwdriver bit.
YOu said you could not install a wood screw because you lacked a drill.
What is one to think, upon hearing this?

It's a cordless drill. It provides more even pressure than I can

Indeed. I would not want to be a single heterosexual monogamous woman
(or man) in the Bay Area right now. A couple of my friends are so
inclined, and there's just not much support here for such folks.

In fact, I could se some excellent logic in starting a support/social
group for heterosexual vanilla monogamous folks. Sandra?

I bought a little battery-operated electric screwdriver for about $10
to help with this move, and am kicking myself that I didn't buy one
years ago. For anyone with wrist or hand problems, they are a godsend.

My drill has a wonderful grip. All the men in my life that have
used it want to keep it, and it's sort of annoying. (It's a DeWalt;
they aren't just for boys any more.)

I've only belonged to one Book Club. The men liked to listen to themselves

enjoy, go on to next book.  The only thing worse is discussing bridge hands
after they are played.  Who can remember?

Are criminal charges being filed? He can't be protected from that.  Maybe
he will be in jail.

Speaking of which... anybody have a good way to hang paintings, etc.,
on brick or concrete? I have a masonry bit and some anchors, but I'd
prefer not to make more holes than necessary. Some of the big pieces
will require it, but is there a way to hang the small, light ones
without drilling into the wall?

<applause> I've been invited to join several book clubs, but I can't
see the point. I think they exist mainly as a way for friends to get
together with a pre-established topic of conversation (it's
interesting that you chose bridge as an analogy), but a couple of my
friends run salons if I want that sort of thing.

I have a huge amount of stuff needed at the grocery, and was just
dreading going this afternoon and pushing up and down the aisles. Then I
thought I'd call to ask if they could put my order all together and I
could just pick it up. And they said YES!!!!!!!!!! Yay!!!!!!!!! What a
boon.
I have to have quite a large order, but that is not a problem. I can
easily shop for two weeks or so at once.

A not-much-of-a-friend broke something off the back of my car....basically a
piece of trim and never fixed it.  I've been told I need something called a
Hex Driver to remove the screws which, right now, are sticking out at the
bottom of the trunk area (dangerous). I borrowed a friends Hex Driver (she
had an extra and gave me one) but I've learned what I really need is a
ratchet set and what's inside to remove the screws. I have some tools but
not that...but I'll borrow one from a friend today. The big heavy stuff is
rather intimidating but I like smallish tools.

I thought you guys were my support group?????  ;)

Indeed, even if there were one, what would be the point of it. My
girlfriends and I kvetch all the time about it. It's a ridiculous topic. And
perhaps pointless to dwell on. The best thing for me is to just go out and
have a good and fun life, which I seem to be doing for the most part. If a
great guy comes along who wants something along the sames lines with one
such as me, well, more power to us. Most of my friends seem to be doubling
up on pets these days. I'm the only one with a cat. All my other female
friends seem to have two big dogs.

I'm not complaining (today), I have a good life.

:)

Meeting quarterly instead of monthly is really going to suit me. I'll get to
dig into my piles of unread books. Unfortunately, some of the books we've
read had little to discuss and then it turns a tad more social. The books
with the most discussion were the one where half hated them, half loved
them. My favorite club member is leaving the area and so cannot stay with
us. She had the most interesting and insightful observations. I'm going to
miss her.

I think you'd be surprised. I suspect there's a large underground of
relatively straight (e.g., maybe enjoying an occasional bit of
bondage or some such but essentially vanilla), monogamously oriented
men in their 30s, 40s and 50s in the Bay Area, and a few of them may
even be realistic about what women actually look like and act like.
One of my good friends pines for a monogamous relationship, although
he's pretty kinked -- but there are few to none to be had in our neck
of the woods.

The D.A. has been investigating---or rather trying to; the diocesan
hierarchy hasn't been exactly cooperative.  In fact, the D.A. has
complained publicly about the lack of candor/cooperation/etc.  He says that
there is clear evidence of a coverup.  There apparently still is some doubt
as to what charges could be filed and for that matter, whether charges will
be filed against individuals, the diocese (under some liability law), or
both.  Cardinal Law has been subpoenaed along with six others.  The
subpoenas were issued at about the time that Law left for the Vatican.

The diocese is already considering a Chapter 11 filing, given all of the
lawsuits and the probability that the suits will be successful.  However,
that might be on hold now, until a new archbishop is named.

My guess is that even if Law does come back to testify, he will end up with
an assignment in Rome.  I very much doubt that any diocese in this country
would welcome him in any role.

As you know, the city is teeming with single, straight monogamously inclined
women. I know scads of them. Maybe he's reaching out to the wrong crowd.
Unless my vision is totally twisted...if a man in this area wants a
"vanilla" monogamous relationship, there are probably a dozen women with a
few square blocks of him that want the same.

You have just described why
a) I quit book clubs years ago and avoid them
like the plague  (I can read a book in the time
they take to discuss it.  Furthermore I don't
really care what their opinion of the book is.)

b) I quit playing bridge years ago and avoid
bridge clubs like the plague.  (I was always the
one at the table who had no idea what had been
played once it had been played, nor did I care).

Exactly.  I'd still like to play bridge once in a while but just for fun.

  A friend was telling a great story last night at the Thursday night gay men's group
about a gag (no pun intended) gift he received a couple years ago of a jumbo sized
dildo.  For a picnic that summer, he decided to hide it in the potato salad (it had
never been used) as a joke on a vegetarian lesbian friend of his (I guess the point
was that when she asked "Is there any meat in this potato salad?" He would
dramatically remove the lid  or something)  Anyway - after the picnic, the dildo
disappeared and despite repeated appeals for its return, nobody would claim
responsibility.  Yesterday, he was having some furnace problems and the repair guy
was there to take a look at it and lo and behold - in a brown paper bag behind the
furnace was the long lost item.  I wish I could do the story justice - I guess you had
to be there - but from the moment he walked in and announced "Let me tell you the
story of the Prodigal Dildo" to the moment he finished the story with "I've decided to
name it Lassie"  He had everyone rolling on the floor.

Hmmm  Maybe I should do a presentation on the campaign to make "that sucks" a
term used to describe something very GOOD.

Among single folks beyond the age of 30 or so, yeah, probably. Most
of the straights find each other early on and get married off, or
come to the city already paired. About the best a non-freak can do is
keep an eye open for the recently separated and divorced -- kind of
like trolling the block looking for people who are walking to their
cars and thus about to abandon their parking spaces, another favored
San Francisco activity.

I might have something to say about it to, say, the author. My
ex-husband is good for talking about books with, too, and so are my
sons. But I got my fill of talking to most people about books back in
college, I guess.

So reading only has a point when one talks about it?

One of the reasons I'm in book clubs is to force me to read books that
I want to and for whatever reason, haven't. I would never have picked
up either Billy Collins or Tim O'Brien on my own and I loved both of
them. (And you're right--I spend less time reading them than I did in
the discussions. But I don't think that's relevant.)

I find myself actually interested in those books and what people value
in them. I went for coffee one night with Ligniere and another
friend who read the Tim O'Brien book, and we talked to him for an hour
about what a great book it was, telling him all the stories.

The head of church is the Pope.  The Vatican is the administrative arm that
deals with everything from global finances to issues of the faith.  As I
understand it, other than some sort of general obligation to support the
Vatican, dioceses in this country are not financially linked to Rome.  Each
diocese is responsible for its own financial welfare.  I suppose that if
the Archdiocese of Boston (or is it Massachusetts?) were in real danger of
going belly-up, the Vatican might find a way to funnel some funds that
way---but it would be a very unusual circumstance, i.e., where the Church
in Rome saw a real danger to the faith.

The notion that the Holy Roman Catholic Church is some sort of monolithic
enterprise in which all decisions emanate from the Vatican is
wrong.  Supposedly, decisions regarding matters of faith work like that,
but even then there is some wiggle room in all but the most elemental matters.

Right--and they don't teach you that, either.

The icing on the Catholic cake for me is that the son of a bitch next

As a matter of fact, I was "taught" none of what you imply.  Of course, I
didn't come to Catholicism via the Baltimore Catechism.

I doubt that Catholicism would ever defend such an action.  People use
religion to justify all sorts of things---it's easier than taking personal
responsibility.

It's ecstasy. But K*R*N can't change a quotation can she?

Speaking of K*R*N, I forgot to mention to Dr Voigtlander,
as I was going to do yesterday, about my santa purchase.
I apologize for that, and hereby state that I got a neck-
lace after all. It's pretty nice if I say so myself.

That's funny.  There was something about "ecstacy" that didn't look right
to me, but I couldn't figure out why.  (I have times when very common words
don't look right to me.)

OK.  I believe that it is "sy" not "cy."

Actually, I like going to movies, and they come up in conversation

Janet, do you consider yourself to be a freak? The proper euphemism is
"alternative."

I wrote and submitted my review. Haven't bothered to follow it up. I haven't
got scads of experience in this area, but based on my time with my duckie,
this is a good gab gift (if one is fond of such) but for a vibrator...it was
a rather frustrating and time consuming experience. Hence, we have decided
to remain *just friends.* I have him propped up on the side of my tub. No
one but you all will know that he's anything more than an inanimate tub toy.

Bingo!  And I've run into a lot of people with *multiple* divorces which
scares me off. Lots of straight people with 3 or more marriages under their
belt. I think I'd rather be single than to have experienced that level of
disappointment.

Parking is an issue here but no more, I imagine, than for NY. I walk and
take the bus or if I'm going to need to park somewhere, I just build in a
bit more time to allow for it.

Thanks, Bad Betty. My vanilla lifestyle makes me a freak here, at times.

What is OE?


            - D. M.

Answering myself, I just figured out it must be
Outlook Express.  Now I wonder why out of
the blue they decided to filter my mail.

It's tricky. I've thought about it. Truth is...I really love the city and my
folks are nearby. With my mom's developing Alzheimers taking more of a hold
on her, I'm really reluctant to go more than an hour or so away. And while I
believe I could live anywhere and make it work, I really prefer this urban
lifestyle. At this age, most of the men relatively age appropriate are
married or in a serious or longterm relationship or divorced and the spend a
lot of their free time with their kids...or maybe they just don't have an
interest in it. That's everywhere...not just SF. Moving is no guarantee. A
girl can easily date here....but anything more than dating seems elusive. In
a few more years, I bet it won't matter much to me...sad, but true.
Hopefully true.

Unless it's an ego thing, I don't see any reason to keep with it just

The irony of this for me is that your messages come to as an attachment.

Did you change a setting? Look for MIME or attachment in help.

I didn't get away from Tupelo until after 3:30, had to go by the p.o.
when I got home just before 5, then a very quick visit to my mother,
then home just as the people picking up my houseguest were picking her
up -- which meant for sure I was not going to go with them, though I had
been invited.  It may be a while before I can catch up on mail.  But I
wanted to report that I had a neat experience today -- I got to see
sleepy.wojomedia.com, the server that my e-mail arrives through.  It was
on the floor in the back of a small shop.  And I finally met my good net
friend who started Futuresouth, then sold it, and now owns Wojomedia,
which is so far mainly a cell-phone-related business but is going to
become a full-fledged ISP at some point.  I met him as I was sliding
along a wet floor on my knees.

Here's a description of the event that I just sent to my friend Pat, he
who was briefly a Wordsler while he was in France.  He and I and one
other person are currently the only people other than Tim getting e-mail
via Wojo.  Pat and Tim have known each other for years.  I think maybe
Tim took a physics course from him when he was a student in the '80s.
The following is probably more than anybody wants to read about my first
meeting with Tim -- but that's why God created delete keys.  (Tim is
from Taiwan, btw.  That aided in the initial identification today.)

1) Why hopefully?

        I like discussing books.  I do it for a living now.  Well,
mostly.  Dickens is a hard sell.  See, Sandra, you can
combine your CASA work and books in a career!

        One of my students is doing all the simple maint. stuff on my
car now in autoshop.  He told me yesterday that my brakes
and tires are good so I should be safe (they should be...
both are new).  It's very cute.  He's also agreed to move up
to one of my college prep classes and is working very hard.
  I'm proud of him.  He was about the most obnoxious kid I'd
ever met in September.  The turnaround is stunning.

        Oh my!  Ana just got a phone call from one of her friends
from school.  Now it begins.

Oh yeah, and a fag hag. (I'm toying with the idea of an ad headlined

*sigh* Not that I need to use such an implement very often, but it'd be nice

> "From ecstacy to ecstacy the year mounts upward."--Helen Keller

I've listened to a lot of women who are in their 50s and up. A lot of
us...as we get older, become more and more like our former 9 year old
selves....before any of us became "boy crazy."  I can't remember even liking
boys until I was 15 and I didn't do much about it til I was 23 anyway. I'm
sure I'm at the peak of it.  That answers your second question...

As for the first, it's hard to be so sad about something one has only so
much control over. I'd like to be less sad about it. Despite the fact that I
really would like to be in a nice, steady relationship, at least unlike a
few of my friends, I'm not crying myself to sleep over it. It would have
been far worse had I desperately wanted to be married and have babies. That
might have been wonderful, but at least half of that fantasy isn't going to
happen and I can easily live with that.

And I like to remind myself to be careful of what I wish for. And at least
I'm not running face forward, eyes closed into any available open arms that
are out there. Two of my male friends recently were royally scalped by women
they were with. One was thoroughly cleaned out...and the other was
completely deceived. Being single isn't the worst thing that can happen to a
girl.

No.  A novel like that would, imho, be as useful linguistically as
something like Rawick's compilations of slave narratives -- at least his
first attempt.  (See Maynor, late '80s on that topic.  Would give exact
references but can't remember them and am too far behind to look them up
and who would care anyway.  One was in a book edited by Alan Thomas, the
other a review-article in American Speech.)  What was being referred to
above is those few tapes made of former slaves.  I shudder at the memory
of the hours spent on that tape-auditing, though it makes me feel good
that I discovered their existence, hidden away in the Library of
Congress.

I have a strong feeling that sufficient answers have now been given.  In
my previous house, I hung them over the door-knocker -- with florists'
wire or whatever you call it.  In my current house there's a nail.  A
method that is often used if you have neither of the above is to hang
them over the doorframe itself.

Ditto, I've got a nail poorly positioned just over my peephole. During the
holidays, I can't see who is out there.

I have as usual received at least twenty calendars so far this
<season>.  Most are whatever you call the kind that have pictures at the
top and the month below that -- hanging style, I guess.  A few are purse
calendars.  I wish charities would not all do the same thing every year
-- as in everybody sends calendars before moving on to whatever the next
thing is.  I'm happy that wrapping paper has been making its way into
the sendings.  I've received neat wrapping paper the past few years from
a few organizations.  But now that I think about it, I think all the
people who have sent me xmas paper have also continued to send
calendars.  And they all send xmas cards also.  I quit buying xmas cards
a couple of years ago because I decided it was silly to do so when I was
going to receive tons of free ones in the mail, which aren't totally
<free> of course since I do contribute to the causes they represent --
though I don't feel any particular compulsion to send another
contribution just because I'm using the xmas cards they sent me
unsolicited.

As my Norton just turned on, I remembered that I got that box on my
screen a week or so ago telling me that my stuff was going to expire and
asking whether I wanted to pay for continuation of it.  I do, but I was
too busy at that moment and told it something like "not now."  Surely it
will give me another chance to say yes, won't it?

Our TESOL certificates are like that.  They aren't recorded on the
transcript if somebody isn't getting a degree, but the certificate
itself is given at the completion of the requirements, regardless of
degree status.  (And they can be put onto transcripts post-degree in the
cases of people who get them after finishing a whatever degree here.)

And you think I'm a risk-taker! With your bones, you need to be
careful.

I do stand on things, but I still have trouble raising my left arm
over my head, so I have to be much higher than I normally would be.

Anyway, all of this will probably be moot.

I don't think I have wrist or hand problems, but I keep thinking that I
would love to have some such device.  I didn't realize they were so
inexpensive.  Some wood is just plain too hard to screw into.  (I have a
drill, but I've never thought of it in relation to screwing.)

  IF I HAD MY LIFE TO LIVE OVER - by Erma Bombeck


  I would have gone to bed when I was sick instead of pretending the
  earth would go into a holding pattern if I weren't there for the day.

  I would have burned the pink candle sculpted like a rose before it
  melted in storage.

  I would have talked less and listened more.

  I would have invited friends over to dinner even if the carpet was
  stained, or the sofa faded.

  I would have eaten the popcorn in the 'good' living room and worried
  much less about the dirt when someone wanted to light a fire in the
  fireplace.

  I would have taken the time to listen to my grandfather ramble about his
youth.

  I would have shared more of the responsibility carried by my husband.

  I would never have insisted the car windows be rolled up on a summer
  day because my hair had just been teased and sprayed.

  I would have sat on the lawn with my grass stains.

  I would have cried and laughed less while watching television and
  more while watching life.

  I would never have bought anything just because it was practical,
  wouldn't show soil, or was guaranteed to last a lifetime.

  Instead of wishing away nine months of pregnancy, I'd have cherished
  every moment and realized that the wonderment growing inside me was
  the only chance in life to assist God in a miracle.

  When my kids kissed me impetuously, I would never have said, "Later.
  Now go get washed up for dinner." There would have been more "I love
  you's." More "I'm sorry's."

  But mostly, given another shot at life, I would seize every
  minute...look at it and really see it ... live it ..and never give it
  back. Stop sweating the small stuff.

  Don't worry about who doesn't like you, who has more, or who's doing what.

  Instead, let's cherish the relationships we have with those who do love
us.

  Let's think about what God HAS blessed us with. And what we are doing
  each day to promote ourselves mentally, physically, emotionally. We
  get one shot at this and then it's gone. I hope you all have a
  blessed day.

  Beautiful Women's Month

  Age 3: She looks at herself and sees a Queen.

  Age 8: She looks at herself and sees Cinderella.

  Age 15: She looks at herself and sees an Ugly Sister (Mum I can't go
  to school looking like this!)

  Age 20: She looks at herself and sees "too fat/too thin, too
  short/too tall, too straight/too curly"- but decides she's going out
  anyway.

  Age 30: She looks at herself and sees "too fat/too thin, too
  short/too tall, too straight/too curly" -- but decides she doesn't
  have time to fix it, so she's going out anyway.

  Age 40: She looks at herself and sees "clean" and goes out anyway.

  Age 50: She looks at herself and sees "I am" and goes wherever she wants
to go.

  Age 60: She looks at herself and reminds herself of all the people
  who can't even see themselves in the mirror anymore. Goes out and
  conquers the world.

  Age 70: She looks at herself & sees wisdom, laughter and ability,
  goes out and enjoys life.

  Age 80: Doesn't bother to look. Just puts on a purple hat and goes
  out to have fun with the world.

You hit "live update" and it will have you go through
a thing to renew your subscription.  With me, however,
they indicated that it would be more practical to buy
the newer better version than to update mine.  I don't
know that I believe them, but it indicated that maybe
I can't update my version.  Somehow they are
sounding more and more like Microsoft.

What??
Do you mean my messages come too (also) as
attachments??

And, no, I have not changed any settings, nor
do I know how to.  I looked and don't see
anything to change that will fix the problem.

You might very well be correct about it not mattering much to you in

This book-club topic reminds me of how hilarious I have found the
Bible-study fad of recent years.  It may be on the wane now.  I'm not
sure.  But I found it hilarious when it became the <in> thing among the
<junior league set>, even if they'd never been to church in their lives
or had no religious thoughts whatsoever.

We went to Mache Bistro tonight for dinner.  At 6:30, there was one other
couple there---the Kellys.  He is a licensed Maine guide and the person who
took us on our first kayak venture.  Dinner was good---black bean soup,
which was almost a bisque, then rendered duck breast in port-ginger
sauce.  As we were finishing up and getting ready for coffee, Maureen (the
owner/chef) came out to chat.  Over our coffee and my lemon tart dessert,
we heard all about her problems with plumbing, both in the restaurant and
in her apartment above.  This early winter has been characterized, for some
reason, by business places suffering frozen/broken pipes.  Maureen also
explained her technique for rendering duck breasts.  As we continued to
talk, she invited us up to the bar for a drink; Elizabeth, who was handling
the front tonight, joined us.  We talked about waiters (Elizabeth's husband
is our favorite waiter at Havana), chefs, cooks, Maureen's plans for
restaurant next summer, and general goings on about town.  Another woman
entered, whose name escapes me.  She works for Acadian Press, which puts
out the (in season) weekly guide to happenings in the park as well as a
weekly restaurant guide and a TV schedule.  More gossip about restaurants,
restauranteurs, and the like.  About that time, Michael, who was the
principal waiter at Mache this summer, wandered in.  He had moved to
Portland, that hadn't worked out (the work was there, the living
arrangements were the pits), so he had come back to Bar Harbor for the
wekend before going home to Ohio, where he is either going to return to
grad. school to finish his Master's or go to culinary school.  Old home
week.  We left as the others were preparing to either go shopping (it's
Midnight Madness night in the village) or go to the Thirsty Whale and have
a drink or two.

You didn't have to be there.  I found your telling of it quite funny.

Are book clubs in? Austin is a bad place to judge something like that
from, since we have more bookstores per capita than any other place in
the U.S.

Same here.  Bugged me every one of the twenty or so times I saw
"ecstacy" in today's list mail.

I wouldn't bother with anyone else but Karen's such a spelling-vigilante
and I was surprised she didn't catch the error.

Huh?  I've never been picky about spelling.  I commit many spelling
anamolies in e-mail, some of them typos, others real -- like
Manhattan/Manhatten, which I can never remember.  Can't remember the
guage committance.  My recent floutist was a typo, which I noticed as
soon as it was floating away but didn't bother to comment on since I
don't see any particular reason to send a followup correction of
anything unless it's something that might be misleading/confusing.

Hmm.  My live update is still working automatically.  But I haven't
tried clicking on it.  Perhaps I should.

A good excuse to stay in and finish dressing up my xmas tree. I'm finally
able to put aside (to give away) the ornaments I dislike. They're going in a
bag to be given to Community Thrift. And I've got my 40-odd xmas CDs fired
up. Anyone else decorating?

        I'm going to Christmas blitz tomorrow.  I do have a few
decorations out -- the stuff from Germany and some Ana made
stuff.

        A little.  But more amused.  They watched the same TV program
(that Home Video show) and giggled for a half hour.

I'd be decorating if I had a real tree, but instead I'm watching my
supremely tacky fiber optic 3-foot Christmas tree do its thing, and
listening to a disc of hammered dulcimer music I got in the mail today from
http://www.greenhillmusic.com. It's one of Alisa Jones' discs, but I'm not
sure which one. Hammered Strings maybe.

Because I wrecked it last week leaving Ligniere's, and it's not
completely healed yet.

I have a bottle of juice I can't open, and I'm wondering if it's the
particular bottle or if I've really lost that much strength in my arm.

I have such fond memories of a christmas spent in Germany & Switzerland with
my brother. He bought me a little wreath with a candle in it and we put it
on the table in our hotel room and we had dinner in a very fancy hotel. I
love all the spicy and sweet treats....pfefferneuse (sp?) and gingerbread
cookies. And Stollen. And all the beautiful Kriskindelmarts...and their
grey-suited St. Nicholas. I think they do it up right there. I also spent
one xmas in London...also nice but not nearly so many specific memories.

I'm going away a few days late next week. Lots to do to prepare. I think I'm
having my parents and my friend, Priscilla, over for xmas dinner. I guess
I'll make the turkey I put in the freezer a couple of weeks ago.

I just stapled a big fluffy Santa Hat to the outside of my front door...just
over the peephole.

We got our tree today and I put the lights on before we went out to

I love dulcimer music...not sure I have any. Is your tree remote controlled,
too? My tree isn't *real.* A couple of years ago I was persuaded to get an
artificial one and I'll admit that I'm very satisfied with it. It looks real
to me and struggling by myself to somehow attach one to my car and haul it
up to my apartment and then haul it down when it's practically brittle
dry....well, this fake tree suits me well.

I'm bummed out because my Carpenter's xmas CD is skipping like crazy after
the 15th track.

But my new Steve Tyrell xmas CD is sublime. I love his gravelly voice.

Oh, gosh.

I sometimes feel that feeling when Ligniere e-mails me something and I

Shall we leave hard-nosed authority control to the catalogers and admit
both sharks and sharps to the ranks of those who ply their venerable trade
among the overly trusting?

However, historically speaking, card sharps, or card sharpers, have been
dealing aces out of their sleeves for many more years than card sharks; the
latter, even today, do not appear in some of the major dictionaries, which
is rather surprising when one considers the historically close association
between sharks and sharpers.

The other thing you can sometimes do is hang things from the
ceiling and then use clear fishing line (or the picture hanging
equivalent thereof) to bring them down to the correct height.
The holes in the ceiling are easy enough to patch and paint
compared to the holes in the brick.

I have no idea whether book clubs are any more in now than at other
times in history.  I don't think that the number of bookstores would
necessarily be related to book clubs, though.  My guess is that many of
the most avid, serious readers are not in book clubs.  Although I
realize that there are many exceptions and that people in book clubs
obviously have some interest in reading, I think that a good many book
clubs consist of groups who are not all that avid about reading.

Actually (re whether book clubs are <in>), I think I did read a magazine
article a while back about the growth in popularity of book clubs with
the suggestion that Oprah had contributed to this spurt.  I don't
remember where I read that or how the writer knew Oprah was related or
much else about the article.  I don't think it was the same place I had
read about the Bible-study trend among the <junior league> types.  I
remember the latter better because it suddenly explained to me why
various people I knew (not in Starkville) were suddenly in Bible-study
groups when they had never paid any attention to the Bible before.  I
hadn't realized it was a national <fad>.  But that Bible-study thing is
different from book clubs.  What made me think of it in relation to the
book club talk was simply that it involves hobbyists meeting to talk
about something reading-related.

Book clubs are very big among Japanese housewives and retired husbands.
As I've said before, I think Japanese wives have great lives for the
most part.

I find that amazing.  Notice my < > though -- these people are not all
necessarily members of The Junior League -- they're <junior leaguish> --
similar to people who involve themselves in The Junior League.  I might
not have thought of that particular way to describe them if the article
I read hadn't used that descriptor.  But it fit with what I'd noticed
personally.

I've been thinking about removing glass shower doors.  Their trimmings
look rusty and dirty, and I'd just rather have a regular shower
curtain.  What can be done about holes that would be left in the tile
wall, though?  I'm not as worried about whatever scars would be left on
the bathtub edge since the bathtub is in very sad condition anyway.  I'm
either going to replace it or have it refinished someday.  Have any of
you ever removed shower doors?

We removed the (sliding) glass doors in two bath/showers

Then we replaced them with brand new ones.  Then wondered
why we hadn't done it sooner.  The cost was not all that

The following is a list of the titles I have
encountered so far.  They may or may
not be in exact order.

If anyone can correct or add to the list
I would appreciate it.  I'm just curious
as to the order and how far this thing goes.

The book person with the huge score said she was at level 19, but I
don't know if each level has a name or if one name might encompass a
couple of levels. Nor can I remember what her ranking name was.

Janet, you can buy hangers to hang things off bricks. I came across
some in the URL Rita sent to me, which maybe she will resend to you.
This is probably a good time of year to buy them, since people are
hanging things off exterior bricks. I've been told to look at
Michaels, Hobby Lobby, Container Store, Walmart, etc. in the
garden/wreath area.

The mailman (or rather mailwoman) brought a priority box right to  my
door because it wouldn't fit in the mail box.
In this box were chocolate covered nuts and socks in many hues like
Joseph's coat of many colors. Thanks to the Maine knitter and
candymaker? Love 'em.

Not directly, but it's related to the number of readers, which is
generally related to the number of bookstores.

True, some of them blog instead of being in book clubs.

One of my book clubs chooses a book every month and no one reads it,
and they get together and don't talk about it.

That's right, that's what was niggling in the back of my brain. I read
this several years ago.

I'm running an ad in order to do what Sandra doesn't particularly
want to do -- date. She would like to be in a long-term spousal-type
relationship, whereas I wouldn't.

I'm realizing how much less stressful the whole dating thing is when
you're *not* looking for a spousal equivalent. I had a glass of wine
tonight with a very attractive and pleasant man with whom I share
many interests. If I were looking for a longterm partner, I probably
wouldn't go out with him again -- he's a bit too New Agey for me to
tolerate for long. But for a fuck buddy he's just right -- smart,
funny, cute, trustworthy (at least apparently so), experienced and
open-minded. And a smile to die for.

I haven't played for a couple of decades but wouldn't mind getting

Not yet, although I may try to put up the tree Sunday so Ben & I can
decorate it when he gets back from Sacramento.

I wish I'd thought of what Dossie's doing -- she's hosting a
gathering of the North Bay Leatherwomen tomorrow and having all the
attendees help decorate her tree ;)

Good point. I'm trying to avoid arranging my art in such a way that
much drilling into brick is required, but there's an awful lot of
concrete, too. Still, I guess it's painted white, so it wouldn't be
too hard to patch.

<nod> A lot of people who "don't have time to read," or to read more
challenging books, and count on the group giving them a spur to get
some reading done.

And yes, Oprah does have a lot to do with it. Much as I dislike her
relationship beliefs and her taste in literature, she's kind of doing
for housewives what Harry Potter did for kids -- rekindle an interest
in reading. (Or, I guess, kindle it for the first time.)
Unfortunately, I've started to avoid any book that has an Oprah stamp
on the front, having read a few of them and found them manipulative
slush.

Does anybody else remember the Junior Great Books Club? I think I
went to a couple of meetings back in my pompous youth.

[Lexographer belongs here, I think]

Super Dictionarian

========
I suspect that there are one or more other levels of Dictionarian (and/or
another level of Lexographer); there is about a 300K gap between my highest
Lex and my SD.

As I recall, Alyce's earlier report was that the woman reached Supreme
Dictionarian, at about 1.2 M.

Ha, that never would have occurred to me. Cool; I'll take a look at
Home Depot tomorrow -- have to go anyway, since the bookcase I just
dragged into the living room is missing the little shelf-holder
thingies for two shelves.

Why would you want to <repair> holes in bricks? The bricks in my loft

There are a few obviously drilled holes in my bricks, although none
in the places where I want them. The difference in appearance between
the natural holeyness of old brick and a drilled hole is pretty
obvious.

Not in mine. Of course, this is an old converted warehouse, and your
bricks may not look like my bricks. There are so many holes and cracks
naturally that a drilled hole is hardly noticeable.

That's a possibility, although I'd rather not have doors at all.  I'm
just not all that crazy about shower doors, except for something like a
walk-in shower.

Yes.  I may just try taking them down.  But not until after I'm rid of

That's ok.  It reminds me of my tennis playing years when many times we

Who did I read about recently who got into a minor tiff with Oprah
because he did not want her to choose his book as an Oprah book?  I hate
that my brain has turned to mush.  I read this not long ago, although
I'm thinking it said that the tiff occurred several years ago.

I heard on NPR when driving back from Tupelo yesterday that one worry
the Republicans have about The Evil One is that if he resigned from his
leadership role, he might also resign from the Senate entirely, leaving
our Democratic Gov to name his replacement.  That would be fun.  It
strikes me as an unlikely scenario, though.

Tile holes are a pain in the butt.  I have a bunch of them that I
haven't done anything with.  I suppose though that you could try
and match some colored grout to the tile and fill with that.
Depending on how motivated you are though, putting up wall tile
is really pretty easy.

Yeah.  I did Great Books in like 4th and/or 5th grades, but I
remember either for the most part having read already the books
(one was Tom Sawyer or Huck Finn) and then somehow the whole
thing broke up because I had a positive TB test in 5th grade and
suddenly everyone was acting like I had the plague or something.
It was connected with school so everyone was already in my
class.

This is also an old converted warehouse -- built in 1916, the
original Lyons Storage which grew into Lyons Moving. (As soon as the
sun comes out again, I want to take a photo of the big stone lions
out front to include in my moving journal.)

The bricks are full of holes and cracks, but drilled holes are nice
and cylindrical and symmetrical, and they show.

Jonathan Franzen, "The Corrections." It was discussed here at some
length a few months ago. I just read it myself a couple of weeks ago,
and it was most un-Oprah-like, dark, funny and amazingly written.

I'm told that Oprah requires that any publisher whose book is chosen
to be an Oprah book donate 100,000 of them to public libraries. I
strongly suspect it's never even occurred to her that she's
effectively put all independent publishers out of the running with
this requirement (except for the handful with strong enough credit
lines that they could go to their banker and explain what's going on
in order to finance a printing of half a million or so).

You are very welcome.  I was hoping the package, along with your mail,
might get brought to the door.  I know our mailman knocks and hands me
things when there is a package.  Those blue socks are my very own, knit
many years ago, which I decided to send to you because you so like the ones
just like them that I sent as your first pair of bonniesox.  In fact, I
think that's how this whole thing got started.

And, Alyce dear, those energy bars tucked in the box are not just packing
material.  Try them.  I sent various kinds that we buy for hiking
snacks.  They taste good.  They are not like sawdust.  They will give you
nutrients and hopefully put a "little meat on your bones."

We haven't played "Do you know?..." yet, but it's virtually certain

difficult to check his references. (Reference-checking is not at all
uncommon in the circles in which I move.)

Definitely not that motivated!  (And it wouldn't be easy for me.  And
the result would be a gigantic mess that I'd have to hire somebody to

Just like wallpaper.  By the way, Natalie, is the toilet now out of the
bathtub and that room all redone?

And, Karen, is the wreath up?

We certainly are having a most un-Christmasy day here in Unreal
Maine.  It's raining.  Hard.  All the snow cover we had yesterday is now
washed away.  Dark and dreary.  Reminds me of a Tennessee winter.  Yuck.

I just got the *coolest* idea this morning.

Sometime in the far-distant past, I bought an antique brass door
knocker with a face in it (shades of Marley's ghost) which I
absolutely love. I've never yet had a house where it was appropriate
to drill through the front door to hang it -- I've always either been
renting, or had a glass-paneled front door, or *something*. But I
just realized that the front door on this place is metal -- all I
have to do is find a strong magnet, epoxy it onto the back of the
knocker, and I'll be able to have it up at last.

Stoked,
Janet

Even better!!!! You can buy a 2-part magnet. (They sell these for
wreaths.) One part on one side of the door, one part on the
other. Et voila!

Not IME, but I certainly don't know all the readers in Austin. Or the
world.

Ligniere talks about what he reads a lot, but he's the only one I know
here who doesn't do one or the other. And actually, I think he buys
books more than he reads them.

Well, if it were my only book club, I'd hate it, but knowing what they
are, I'm fine with it. I like the people.

Didn't watch it, but Daddy did, and reported a significant MSU
victory.  Also there was a big feature on the sports page today
about the Bulldogs going to Madison Square Garden to take on a
top team after playing a bunch of creampuffs in the early going.
I am happy for you, hope I am happy for myself later after UKy
meets Michigan State here.

Even if someone has explained it to her, I'm not sure she would want
to deal with a small press, because they don't all have the
wide distribution she would want.

I did 90% of my Christmas shopping today in a four-hour stint at Holyoke
Mall. Now, I only have remaining on my list my cousin's two children, an
almost-7 year old girl, and an almost-2 year old boy. I have no idea what to
get either of them, and have asked their mother for guidance.

The Yankee Candle votives I got my sister are reeking up my living room.
They need to pass out air filter masks at the door of that store; the
mish-mash of conflicting scents is overwhelming.

I can't remember what we read (which shows how much enjoyment I was
getting out of it all). Not Tom Sawyer or Huck Finn, not Xenophon. I
have a vague memory of some sort of Frenchish society parody with
drawings in it, and I know I should know who wrote it, but I'm
CRAFTing this morning.

Nonsense. Anybody but the teeniest of presses sells through Ingram
and Baker & Taylor, which is where the vast majority of bookstores do
their ordering. And anyone who doesn't already have Ingram
representation would be fought over like a bone among a wolfpack by
every distributor in the country if they had an Oprah deal pending.

Dossie & I had to resign from a psychic workshop we'd started taking
because it was held in the back room of a metaphysical store and we
couldn't stand the smell. (It was also kind of a crappy workshop,
which was just as well.)

I'm dauntingly cash-poor this holiday, but got lucky: I'd bought some
curtains a couple of months ago at Bed Bath & Beyond that I didn't
like when I got them home... and the amount I returned them for was
just enough to buy gifts for my folks. Now I can spend what little
actual cash I have on friends and Dudes.

The storm is preventing me from going up to Dossie's as planned, so I
may go out for a movie and shopping later today.

The quality of my bricks is such that nothing on the surface appears

The sum total of such YC reek equals "cheap hairspray" to this olfactory

The bridge ladies (save one) do Bible study twice a week.
My sister has joined a book group at her church, but they are reading
inspirational kinds of books--perhaps Oprah's--I don't know. But not
Bible studying. I can't think that Berta does it just to socialize,
because she is in so many clubs already that one more shouldnt matter.

My mother joined a book group years ago and read about six books a year.
She never enjoyed reading much, so I suspect this was an occasion for
her to socialize. "That Winthrop Woman" stands out in my mind as one
that she read for the club, because I happened to have it and she
borrowed it.

I think you should send her e-mail outlining all this then. You're the
perfect person to do this because it's unlikely that she'd choose one
of your books.

But..what kind of smell? Incense? Mothballs? Lemon Pledge? People who don't
wash often enough?

I bought my dad some cologne that he used to love. I can't remember why he
stopped wearing it -- I sure hope it's not because his girlfriend doesn't
like it. For the past few years he's been wearing really garish drugstore
imitations that make it hard to be around him for extended periods. Then
again, subtlety in any form is unknown to him.

I was So Smart. I brought along some Splenda packets to have in the coffee I
knew I'd get at the mall. :) And I wisely avoided the rather sad-looking
sushi in the food court.

It's true I do love the first blue Bonniesox, and thus I love these. But
these are different because of the white design. My others are just
plain.

It was some package!

[Now that POTUS is on board, I'd guess that unemployment benefits
will be extended. -rashmi]

WASHINGTON, Dec. 14 — President Bush called on Congress today to act
immediately when it convenes next month to reinstate unemployment benefits
for 750,000 people whose assistance will run out three days after Christmas.

Mr. Bush said the benefits should be paid retroactively to Dec. 28 once they
are restored. He otherwise offered few specifics of the legislation he wants
passed by Congress, where his party will be in control of both the Senate
and the House starting in January.

Unemployed workers "need our assistance in these difficult times, and we
cannot let them down," Mr. Bush said in his weekly radio address.

"I have shared these concerns with the leaders of the House and the Senate,
and they understand the need for early action," he said. "When our
legislators return to the Capitol, I ask them to make the extension of
unemployment benefits a first order of business. And the benefits they
approve should be retroactive, so that people who lose their benefits this
month will be paid in full."

States typically provide laid-off workers with 26 weeks of unemployment
benefits, and the federal government has routinely extended the benefits in
particularly hard periods for the economy. This year, Congress authorized a
13-week extension, but that authorization runs out on Dec. 28.

Hmm...Aqua-Net.

But I agree that individually they're quite nice. Drat! I meant to buy a
Balsam Fir one for myself, and I think I forgot.

You should see their factory/flagship store. It's about 35 miles north of
here and bus tours stop at it. I wouldn't even dream of attempting to go
there at this time of year.

I thought of both of those, but neither seems quite right. The
illustrations were by the author and were integral to the text, kind
of little gargoylish caricatures of the kind of people he was
describing.

Oh, god, have I just created another clock movie?

Actually, one of the small press associations should have done it a

No; much more recent (probably 18th century) and definitely parodistic in tone.

I comsider myself an avid reader but have never belonged to
a book club. Does talking about books on words-l constitute
"blogging"? That's the closest I come to discussing books.

I can't figure out what this means. Dubya asked Congress to
"reinstate unemployment benefits for 750,000 people whose assistance will

I think what Karen means is that Congress said that assistance could be
extended for 13 more weeks.  But that extension of benefits would only be
good until December 28 at which point there would be no more 13 week
extensions and things would go back to the way they were before Congress
said that you could have another 13 weeks.   Now Dubya says that we need to
continue to give people those 13 more weeks.   But he isn't saying that we
can give them 26 weeks.  Or whatever.

You haven't paid attention.  I even posted pictures of the toilet back

  Does your cat take you out on her leash when it snows?  Oops, I forgot it
was raining instead of snowing in Maine today.  Floor warnings were being
flashed around here last night and today.  I wanted to walk down Telegraph
Avenue and take in the bazaar but it looks miserable out my window here at
work.

Those are the easy ages.  Just go to the toy department of a store or
the children's section of a bookstore and poke around.  Many things are
labeled with appropriate ages.  It's when they get to be teenagers that
it's much harder, imho.

>   Does your cat take you out on her leash when it snows?

Poor Amy has been practically crossing her hind legs for the last
couple of days -- she *hates* pooping in the rain (and who can blame
her?) and postpones it for as long as possible. During the interlude
this morning when it was only extremely windy, not rainy, we took a
reasonably long walk, but it may be a while before she gets another.

To answer the top question, yes, little Serendipity Jane still goes walking
when it is snowing or when it has snowed.  I often shovel a path for her
first, however.  She prefers walking in not-so-deep snow.  I bought and
Clyde recently installed a bird feeder for her viewing pleasure.  But only
one pair of chickadees have found it so far.

Be careful driving home from work today.  Your rain is even worse than ours
and ours is really, really bad.  Tonight it is supposed to get windy and
the rain will change to snow.  But we should get only an inch.  We've had a
few electricity fluctuations.  Perhaps other parts of the island have lost
power.  There appears to be much redundancy built into the village's
electricity so that our power almost always stays on.

I do now vaguely remember the pictures.  Sorry for not paying

I didn't say that I thought the majority of readers never discussed
books with anybody.  But I do think that you are more typical of avid
readers than are Karen's blogging and clubbing friends in Austin.

Lovely!   I like that color bathtub.  Very stylish.  I wonder if Tushar
still has a commode-hugging rug in his bathroom.

What are opposable thumbs?  Somebody like me in this case means somebody

The Dudes have always been easy, but it's hard to describe the kind
of thing they actually like. If you drew a line from Neil Gaiman
through Tom Waits by way of Tim Burton, you could pick things
anywhere along that line and you'd make them happy.

The Booksmith in SF has signed copies of the new Clive Barker
juvenile novel. I can't decide which of them to get it for. Used to
be I could just buy one of something like that and they'd share it,
but now that doesn't work as well (Ben's been slowly rebuilding his
CD collection to replace ones that went away with Miles).

And the eternal post-separation dilemma: do I get anything for Jay? I
saw a gadget in a catalog that had his name written all over it -- a
clock radio that has a flashlight built into the underside which
turns on when you pick it up. But if it's just going to bum him out
having it around, there's not much point in spending the money. But I
feel like giving him *something.*

Are '50s bathroom colors stylish again?  That's what my fixtures are.

Let it be noted that our sweet little Serendipity Jane has not yet figured
out that she is allowed, ney encouraged, to poop and pee outside.  This
doesn't seem to be her style even though she has witnessed her sibling
peeing right in front of her outside.  She seems to think it is more seemly
to wait until after her walk and then use her separate-from-the-others
litter box area.  Note that I said litter box <area> because 90% of the
time she poops on the floor near the box.  She's a high maintenance cat.

The '50s have never gone out of style, although harvest gold refrigerators
are not my taste.

Thank you for the explanation, K*R*N. Though you be empress of
the misleadingly incomplete description, you ultimately do come
through.

OK, I peeked. She was sitting right in front of me. Actually she
circled a phrase, and it was "callipygous derriere". Not one word
this is false.

Me too. I'm all thumbs when it comes to crafts and home improvement
projects. I don't like the flouncy window valances that
came with the house and a friend who's more competent than
I am offered to help me do it. But my December's spun outta
control with two projects at work developing emergencies and
tight deadlines - I had to cancel two Home Depot/fabric
buying expeditions last week. Don't think I'll be able to get
to it before the end of the year.

I've yet to buy a single gift.

        Whatever you say.  I'm not having that easy a time with my
almost-seven-year-old.  She's never been easy.

        I blitzed most of my shopping today, too, at Mid-Rivers Mall.
Gotta stop at a hoity-toity wine shop on my way home from
work tomorrow for my brother, then I'm about done except a
couple things here and there for Ana.  I'd like to get her a
piggy bank since we just instituted an allowance, but
they're really hard to find.

What parents give their children is a whole nother matter from the
little gifts that more distant people give to children.  Otoh, parents
of teenagers no doubt have a somewhat easier time knowing what to give
them than other people do.

Here's one reason why I would not belong to a certain kind of
book club or reading group: I once read the Handmaid's Tale
and thought it sucked rocks. Seeing as it was a "reading group"
edition (yes, the mind reels) I am sure it's a staple everywhere.
I wouldn't even clear it if I had control over the reading group.
Now imagine what would happen if I said it sucked. 20 minutes of
theorizing that I am anti-women, 30 minutes of explaining that
I shouldn't get freaked by the shocking scenes and unconventional
premise, etc. Thus, tons of time will be wasted in a particularly
unpleasant way among people who are impressed by any damn crap.

My edition of _Nickle and Dimed_, a highly overrated and seriously flawed
book, has study questions in the back.  My mind reeled.

I ran across one such blog a while ago. At first I thought,
wow, what a ch*k! I hope she is the kind who would like to
sit on the culvert by the highway and watch the St Louis
skyline with me. After a while, I suddenly got nauseated
by the relentless flow of current events, formula reviews
and celebrity gossip--or I guess I should just say the
obsessive bloggy monomania of it. It's pretty sad, overall,
that so many "literate", "articulate" "avid readers" are
real bores ...

In that case Oprah is exactly as bad as Harry Potter. I don't
understand the need to say "at least it gets them to read" if
they are reading crap.

K*R*N does not point out typos like this. K*R*N only does it
for a special category of mistakes--in fact I think K*R*N
only does it for proper names or foreign words. Thank you

I just saw a great one at the Container Store, made out of some kind of
rubber. You stick money in the pig snout.

They had a doggie one, too, but I didn't see how to get the money in.

They also had glass ones for $5. And a few other kinds.

My comment?

I got the normal 26 weeks. You're eligible for that for a year, and I
got it off and on last year. Then I got the 13 weeks, from June
through November. You could be eligible for that from some time in
March through the end of this calendar year.

My understanding is that Bush is going to make the eligibility for the
13 weeks run through part of next year. NOT that he's going to make it
so if you already had a 13 week extension and you're still unemployed,
you can get a 2nd 13 week extension.

I've decided to give my two-week notice on Monday due to some
chicanery done by Annegret this week.  Mary's last day is the
24th, and Daniel has decided to move to electronics.  Annegret
will get her wish:  she will be the only one in the department,
and it will be her fault.

I think Natalie's point was that I misspelled "apposable".

Ken just contacted his agent from four years ago on Wednesday (who
remembered him) and yesterday had a costume fitting for work on Jan. 2
and 3 in "Seabiscuit," which is to be filmed in Santa Barbara. This is
exciting news--although only a background part, now that he is in SAG,
he will receive more than before when he was just a humble extra. I hope
this is the start of big things for him and I am excited  that he got
something so quickly, especially now at holiday time when things are
usually very slow out there in movieland.

        Those are perfect.  Too bad I don't have a Container Store

No.  I was not making a point -- I was asking a question.  I don't know
what "opposable" thumbs are.  Or "apposable" ones either.  I can put my
thumbs in opposition or in apposition, but what does that have to do
with wallpaper and tile?

I *loved* those E-Toys commercials that were airing last year, that
showed a parent noticing a child playing with something around the
house -- trying to build a structure out of tableware, or watching a
bug -- and then going on-line to buy a toy that would help the kid
explore the interest further. Such a nice antidote to the
toy-of-the-year bullshit.

Indeed.  A screw in exchange for dinner sounds like pleasant bartering.

I simply said that I'm no good at hanging wallpaper or laying tile.  I
said nothing about thumbs.  But I don't see that the meanings below are
the same.  I guess two thumbs in apposition might be also in opposition,
but that doesn't mean the words mean the same thing.

I disagree. I think reading is like most other learned activities --
you start by doing the easy stuff, find you like it and want more
challenge, and move on from there.

After all, most of us started with "Pat The Bunny," which is hardly
great literature.

(A related story: Ben's been on a detective-novel kick -- he started
with Dave Barry's "Big Trouble," I told him if he liked that he
should try some of the Carl Hiassen that it imitated, and he went on
from there to Elmore Leonard, Walter Moseley James Crumley et al. He
ran out of everything decent I had around here, so I pointed him
toward my large and shameful collection of Robert Parker's Spenser
novels. He got about two chapters into it and wanted to know why I'd
suggested he read it when the characters were so shallow and the
writing so impoverished <blush>. It surprised me, frankly, that he so
readily recognized the difference between good genre writing and
standard genre writing.)

It's a large and motley category that includes everything from
perfectly respectable Eastern religions through the stupidest of
UFO-abduction tripe. I believe that some of the intuition books I've
been reading since I started thinking about developing intuition were
flagged as metaphysics. It's generally a category that sells well, so
it's often to a publisher's advantage to make sure the book gets
shelved in that category.

We did?  I've never heard of "Pat The Bunny."  I started with Dick and
Jane and Baby Sally and Mother and Father and Spot and Puff.  No Pat
that I recall.

        Yeah, except my kid tends to stay interested in something for
a few days, then is on to the next thing.  She's too fast
for UPS.

        I got her her very first own real Breyer horses, though.  A
boxed Spirit set (for a recent movie, it was really darn
hard to find the merchandise).  She's always asking to play
with mine, but mine are strictly collectibles at this point.
  I told her I'd leave them to her in my will :).  The rest
of the pile is distressingly Barbie and Disney oriented.
But that's what she asked for, and what you ask for is what
Santa gets you.  I think the only thing I haven't found yet
is soccer Hello Kitty.

Well, I guess I'm not buying it. I sent Jay an e-mail earlier today
-- I had a dream about him the other night from which I woke up with
a crushing sense of sadness and anxiety, and I haven't been able to
shake it since then. I dropped him an e-mail explaining the situation
and asking him to please drop me a line to let me know that he's
basically OK. His response, in toto: "I'm basically OK." I think it's
probably safe to speculate that this is a man who doesn't want a
Christmas present from me.

I saw the same one in a games-and-puzzles store at Jack London Square
a couple of days ago. I was wishing I had a child on my Christmas
list because I thought it was such a cool pig.

Not Pat as in Patrick, pat as in stroke. It's a little book in which
each page has a different texture -- you pat the soft bunny, feel
Daddy's scratchy face, et al. It's the first book I can remember in
my life, and one that I buy occasionally as a baby giftie.

Did you start reading when you were in school? I had kind of figured
it out before then and was reading on my own, so by the time I got to
Dick, Jane et al I thought they were pretty stupid.

Wow, that's a blast from the past. I loved those when I was her age.
I've seen the ones I used to have for sale in antique stores, so I
guess they *are* collector's items, which is pretty freaky.

Did anybody see in the "Sally Forth" comic strip this week that Sally
was trying to get her daughter interested in reading by giving her
"The Black Stallion"? I didn't think anybody still read "The Black
Stallion." (The movie, however, is IMO one of the best family movies
ever made.)

Well, the concept of that book is a bit difficult
to internatlize , but I must say it might be hard
to grasp from a male point of view since it was
difficult enough to grasp from a female point
of view.  Good book though, eh?

it is easy to grasp from an 8-year-old's point of view or
less, and it's a badly written book.

So you think there is a "female point of view"?

We don't have any gold anything left, but we do have a
turqouise bathtub and stool in one bath.  It's a problem
because we can't buy a toilet seat to match and have
had to go with white.  Ugh.  The two sinks in the vanity
were once turqoise as well but we have replaced them
with white.

Which is sad; "respected Eastern religions" should be in religion
or philosophy. Which is how it is at, say, Borders.

Where did "fat" come in? Fat is not included in "callipygous",
all it means is LadyKillerAss[tm]. But now it strikes me that
given it was &*^$*ing Vogue they clearly abused the word to
mean big booty, especially since it came with a redundant
"derriere" ... so to say ...

Of course there is ... But is it so significant that it
changes a serious reader's assessment of a novel? I hope
not.

Not offhand -- but most of the adults I know are already pretty busy
readers. I do know of quite a few examples of kids who started off
with Harry Potter and moved on to better stuff -- it's a pretty short
step from there to Chronicles of Narnia or The Sword In the Stone,
and from there who knows where they'll go?

In a general-interest bookstore, they probably would be -- or, if the
publishers are doing their jobs, they'd be cross-shelved in both
sections (and possibly also in self-help). But metaphysical
bookstores usually have a decent selection of Eastern religion books.

My understanding was that it indicated a high, protruding ass --
which is why I suggested "bubble butt" as a more accurate
translation. Given that the typical Hollywood broomstraw has no butt
at all, a Jennifer Lopez would be considered by many to have a "fat
ass" (I should have such problems), but what she has is a great
classic bubble butt.

All in good time. Back when all this started, a friend asked why I
was trying to do everything all at once, and I told him that as long
as I was frantically busy I wouldn't have time to be sad. Well, most
of the hardest work is done, and now I do have time to be sad, so I'm
sad.

The house seems to be sold, but two animals (at least) are still over
there. The territorial dog, Emmett, and the cat who is an outside
cat. The outside cat basically lives in the garage, and whoever was
over there cleaning the house today shut the garage door, so she can't
get to her food and water. Ligniere suggested I feed her milk, so I
did, but I didn't think milk was good for cats.

in my head, so it won't be that funny.

It's an entertaining derivation, but, alas, it's been pretty thoroughly
debunked.  The Urban Legends site has a summary at

http://www.snopes.com/language/stories/brass.htm

First off, they didn't keep cannon balls in pyramids, which would have come
crashing down when the ship started pitching in heavy seas; they used racks
with holes bored through them.  Plus, the first citation for this phrase is
several decades after the demise of cannons.  Plus, while it is true that
brass and iron do contract at different rates during cooling, the
difference isn't that great unless you're dealing in hundredths of an inch.

Frankly, on a gullibility scale of 1 to 10 (with 10 being the most
convincing and 1 the least) I'd give this story about a 3.

I don't, much. I like having jewelry but I always forget to wear it.
But the silver snowflake does sound pretty.

"Developing" might not be exactly the right choice of words;
"acknowledging" might be closer. I don't think anybody can teach you
to have intuition -- you have what you have, although most people
have more than they think. For me, it's a matter of double-tracking
-- keeping the expert mind running well enough that I can accomplish
what I've set out to do, but making space for a part that's
completely in the moment and completely open to everything that's
going on around it, and being open to impulses that come from that
part.

There's a short section about intuition in "The New Topping Book,"
which should be leaving for the printer in a week or two. In the
meantime, of the books I read I liked "Intuition Workout" the best --
very little woo-woo stuff, lots of practical exercises.

I'm too tired (and a little drunk) to talk about this now, but it
actually fits in well with some stuff I've been thinking about with
regard to work. I've just begun reading stuff by a psychologist,
Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi. He writes about "The Psychology of Optimal
Experience".

When you're more awake and more sober, can you tell me more about
that? It sounds like something I might like to take a look at for
Dossie's and my book on intuition/spirituality/transcendence in BDSM.
(Mentally, I'm calling it "Perverts In Ecstasy," but I don't know if
that'll fly. Of course, I said the same thing about "Ethical Slut.")

Oh, you won't.  But now I'll probably work on reading the Dutch
"In Babylon" by Marcel Möring over Christmas instead.  So far
I've only read the first page, and it starts off with an
intensly thick paragraph with a dead naked uncle, police and a
hooker.

I started detailing it for you, but deleted it all.  When it
comes down to it I think I have a really good
science/math/computer kind of education with probably just enough
sense of world to get by talking with people who specialized on
the literature/history/art side of things.  I have decent verbal
and social skills too which is how come I kind of like doing
management kinds of things instead of pure techy kinds of things.
What is this, a job interview?

This is not craft (it's not art, it's not craft, is it trade?).

I was going to say that never having heard of "Pat the Bunny" was

Ohhh.  But no -- I don't think that book existed in my day.

I just asked my houseguest, and she doesn't remember textured books
either.  She's a few years older than I am.

I liked Dick and Jane et al.  I loved when they visited their
grandparents' farm and kept wishing that my grandparents had a farm.  I
guess I learned to read in school, although I don't really remember.  My
mother used to laugh about how it appeared that I was reading when I was
tiny because I would pick up the books she read to me and turn the pages
and say every word, but her implication in laughing about it was that it
was because I was remembering the words she had read to me, not because
I was reading the words.  I've always assumed she was correct about
that, though, as I said, I don't really remember.

Does stool mean toilet in this context?  I have a vague memory that we
discussed this word matter a while back.

My toilet lid doesn't exactly match the rest of the turquoise in that
bathroom.  Somebody obviously replaced it at some point, getting it
close but not quite there.  Hmm.  I wonder if maybe there was nothing
turquoise at all available at that time and whoever replaced it bought
white and painted it.  You'd think that bathroom turquoise would all be
the same.

This makes sense.  I think it's important to be sad at times.

I don't see it as similar at all to ham-cheese pinwheels.  These
ham-cheese pinwheels don't have to be perfectly formed and placed, etc.

Home Depot(for tools - I own nothing but the most basic) and
the fabric store are in the same strip mall. One trip - two stores
was the idea. Guess I'll have to live with ugly windows for a

Save your money.  The woman who wrote this book is the worst kind of
journalist.  She thinks that she now understands what it is like to live on
minimum wage because, one month at a time, she left her cushy lifestyle to
take a minimum wage job, first in Key West, then in Maine, then in
Minnesota.  But she took all of her upper middle class values with her,
gave herself a nice cushion of money to get started for each one of her
months of "poverty", and fell back on contacts in her real life when the
going got tough.  In my opinion, her experiences gave her very little
insight into what it's really like living on the edge.  The best parts of
the book were those that included statistical research.

        I only read it by translating it in Classical Greek.  I'm not

And if you have a look at what's already there, you'll see that
it probably isn't.  Also if you lay rectangular wall tiles like
bricks you can really be pretty fast and loose.  Getting squares
set right is easy enough, but bricks are really extra easy.

Yes, really.  I had a look online and nothing stuck out as even
remotely familiar.  I've never taken any Greek or had much Greek
history either.

        If you had an income, I'd suggest feeding the cat because
outside cats are good at keeping the pest levels down (my
neighbor's two cats have kept the moles under control in the
neighborhood).  To be completely responsible, you would just
have to catch her once a year and get her vaccinated.

        That's what we have on our blue toilet.  But it is starting
to crack and I think the screws have corroded to the point
where it is going to be impossible to replace.

        It doesn't matter what you read -- you still derive
intellectual benefits even if you're reading total crap.
They may or may not move onto anything challenging (they
could stay firmly stuck in SF/Fantasy), but the habit of
reading is good nonetheless.

        Oh, extremely collectible.  I held onto mine, and some are
worth $70 or $80.  Not that I'd sell them.  I just like
having them all lined up on my shelf.  I have nearly every
stablemate ever sold.

        They do.  Although there are better horse series for girls
out there so BS is on the wane now... the big mistake of
those was making the protagonist a boy -- horse stories
appeal to girls.

        A small gift certificate to an office supply place or grocery
store (I tend to spend a fortune on candy for prizes).  What

Me too, but I don't think oak would look good on turquoise.  I always
have oak seats on white toilets, and I can imagine they would look good
on some other colors -- but not turquoise, at least not imho.

I want to think that they aren't abandoned entirely. I may check with
the neighbors on their other side; I want to get to know them anyway.
I'll put some water out for them before I leave this morning. The
animals don't go with the house--the dog that's left is the son's dog,
and he loves this dog, I know. But he's not in the house with it.

Yes, in most places you can.  If the animal is wandering around outside,
it is of course simple for animal control to take it.  If it's fenced in
or inside a house or whatever, it's more complicated -- more legal
considerations and redtape.  But, as I think we've discussed here
before, you need to weigh the situation at the local shelter vs the
situation the animal is in at the moment -- like whether the animal is
likely to be euthanized at the shelter and whether that is better or
worse than the animal's current situation.

Ah, maybe I will indeed try it sometime.  Where does one buy tiles, and
do directions come on them about what else you need to do the job and
how to do it?  My only memory of home efforts re tiling was not ceramic
tile -- it was whatever you call the floor stuff that's not ceramic.  My
parents decided to do the job themselves in a small kitchen of a small
apartment they had added onto our house for my grandmother.  It was
hilarious.  After great time and effort, they had to call a professional
to rip up what they'd done and redo it.  Nobody in my family has ever
been good at that kind of stuff.

These are squares -- pretty much the classic old-fashioned (but still
used) smallish ceramic square ones.  They're white, although I realize
that matching white isn't easy -- that there are many shades of white.

I redid the kitchen in the Oak Ridge house with vinyl tile from Home
Depot.  It turned out quite nicely.  It took me two days: one to rip up the
old stuff, one to put down the new stuff.  You can buy everything at Home
Depot including books on what to do with it.

This is something I've thought about before.  Why is it that the general
wisdom is that reading is somehow <better> than watching a movie.  I'm
not talking about reading news vs watching tv news but rather reading a
novel vs watching a movie.  Are the intellectual benefits derived from
the fact that you are creating the mental pictures from the words
instead of having the pictures presented to you?

I thought all those colors that were popular for kitchen and bathroom
fixtures at various times were from the same <dye> -- like a harvest
gold stove was the same color as the harvest gold refrigerator or toilet
or whatever even if you bought them in different places.

Jessica is addicted to the video.  It's her pyjama time video.  I
watched it maybe 8 times while I was there, and I found it
soothing too.  I can understand how my sister has played it
almost every night for the past year and not had to accidentally
lose it.

(Now, the "Let's go on safari" toy - that went back.  My dad has
new instructions not to purchase any toy that he has not actually
played with.  He also bought a foul-speaking bear who's had a
voiceboxectomy)

Thanks.  I bet Lowe's also.  I have no idea where the closest Home Depot
is, but there's a Lowe's in Columbus.   I guess if I could figure out
how to disengage one of the tiles, I could take it with me to try to
match it.  But I would need a book to tell me how to dig out a tile.

I would have guessed after my time rather than before my time since
Steph is the one who mentioned it.  Or was it Janet?  Anyway, it was
somebody a good bit younger than I am.  Then again, I'm sure there were
lots of books around that happened not to fall into my life.

Absolutely -- if anything, more of a classic than "Pat the Bunny."
But I didn't use it in my example because I think it *does* have some
literary merit, in a tone-poemish kind of way.

My feeling is that reading is more active. It gives you freedom
to pace yourself, reread, fill in the blanks etc. But I don't
think that's an inherent property of the written word. Written
words just happen to be a far more sophisticated medium than
TV or movies--but there might be some way in which the latter
don't remain so dedicated to keeping people captive by any
means possible.

I was pretty sad last night, so I got frantically busy instead --
cooked a pot of chili, assembled the last of the Gorilla shelves
(yay!!), dragged all the Christmas stuff out into the living room,
unpacked all my records and videos (but haven't found the box with
the CDs in it yet, annoyingly), etc., etc. My next door neighbors
were having a loud party, so that gave me an excuse to work into the
wee small hours.

Today I need to finish doing the layout on "New Topping Book," go to
Macy's and take advantage of the phenomenal sale they're having on
rugs (it actually ended yesterday, but I called up and pleaded
storm-strandedness and they said they'd hold the price for me till
today -- $180 for a 5' x 8' cotton rug in bright red and gold
squares, plus a bonus smaller rug thrown in), get the
bookshelf-holder thingies so I can finish shelving all the books,
finish painting the wall I started Friday night, reformat and reload
the OS on the old office computer I'm giving a friend of mine, and
pack a few orders if there's time. I might make my egg & bean
casserole if Ben comes home in time to help eat it.

I guess I can be sad tomorrow ;)

Makes sense.

I still vividly remember reading an article by one of the Johnson
girls in a women's magazine in the late 60s or thereabouts. She and
her family lived on food stamps for several months so that she could
see what it was like. But she didn't cheat -- didn't use the
condiments and stuff she already had in her kitchen, and didn't pad
the stamps with cash when things got tight.

Her conclusion was that it was possible, barely, to feed a family
nutritiously on food stamps, but that shopping for and preparing such
inexpensive food was essentially a full-time job. She said the thing
she missed most was seasoning -- that the food stamps went far enough
to buy staple foods, but there was never enough left over to buy jars
of herbs and spices.

I wonder if that's all still true?

Amazon lists it as originally published in 1940, so it may well be
that it wasn't very well-known when you were that age.

Naah. Books have to be bestseller types for publishers to get money
for first serial rights. Mostly you just give them away and are glad
of the publicity.

I think that's what I liked about it -- I guess I was a bit

>A small gift certificate to an office supply place or grocery
store (I tend to spend a fortune on candy for prizes).  What
sorts of supplies do they seem to go through?  Stickers,
colored pens, a book for the classroom, a nice frame.

You habitually give out candy in high school? I never heard of such. I never
did when I chose to function within that cadre, except maybe for Christmas,
but hey -- each to his/her own.

I have no idea what kind of supplies they go through -- that's not my job; I
only know I bought a ton of them at the beginning of the year per the
required list. And furthermore, parents sign up for different months to send
prizes for the the class Treasure Box. I've done two tours of duty already
in that regard, including stickers, colored pens, and everything else that
kids already have way too many of. The classroom has zillions of books
already, and the school library is one of the best in this part of the
state. Glut, glut, glut.

And if I see one more goddam picture frame, I'm going to scream. I got
several when I switched departments, earlier this year. To me, a picture
frame is the ultimate no-brainer/generic "nice" gift -- unless, of course
it's another frigging, stinking candle.

What I meant is something more personal -- a treat, as it were -- to show my
appreciation to the teacher and assistants ... and I'll just figure it
out -- in fact, I think I already have.

That seems silly to me. What kid doesn't go on to extrapolate his or
her own stories from the stuff they see on TV? That way you get to
imagine the whole thing, without even the words to help you.

Ben says "I love anything with narrative" -- books, TV, movies, video
games, etc. I do too (except for the video games, which I've never
developed a taste for, much to his disdain). Each medium has its own
strengths; I don't see any of them as inherently better than any
others. And saying that it's better for the mind to read Danielle
Steele than to watch Six Feet Under just seems dumb.

My friend Cheryl's 1930s bungalow has beautiful rounded-off turquoise
tile and fixtures in the bathroom. She's taken great pains through
the years to find period-appropriate and matching soap dishes,
toothbrush glasses, etc. (It also features one of the most unusual
decorating accoutrements I've ever seen in a private home -- a huge
perm machine that looks like the electrical lovechild of a willow
tree and an octopus.) It all looks terrific.

January 7. Some senator this morning on Meet the Press said it would be

    Well, I went from "Stevie the Steam Shovel" to "Catch-22" in one decade,

    Although entirely too Britsie-poo, Robert Barnard ain't bad, and of

Iow, you're saying that the difference is in the kinds of things that

written in it rather than for linguistic reasons?

<company foods>).  Obviously I'm getting plenty of seasoning in the
canned or frozen or boxed foods I eat.  But when I cook something fresh,
I don't add anything to it.

That timing would make it perfect for me.  It would've had time to
become well known between its publication date and my two-year-oldness
five years later.

That's what I've wondered about -- about why the general belief seems to

I don't really know how far back my turquoise fixtures go.  I had
guessed '50s.  The house is about 65 years old, but the bathroom I'm
talking about is in a part that was pretty clearly added on at some
point -- but a long-ago point.  Assuming '50s for the turquoise, I took
great pains to hang a "Rebel Without a Cause" poster on the bathroom
wall.  And I put an A&W rootbeer mug on the back of the toilet.

I was staring at the shower-door frame a little while ago and decided
that it's quite likely that the screws go into the grout -- between
tiles.  I'm tempted to start trying to take it down, especially since my
RRSIL&N aren't going to be coming today after all.  But I don't think
that simply unscrewing the six screws (three on each end) will do it.
The frame seems stuck on with white grouty stuff.  Also, I need to give
thought to how to keep from letting the glass crash down into
smithereens all over the bathtub and floor.

Food stamps are not mentioned in the seriously flawed book, _Nickle and
Dimed_.  The biggest problem of living on minimum wage is finding
affordable housing.  It took the author awhile to understand why it was
that her co-workers were living in expensive by-the-week motel rooms rather
than the trailer she had found to rent.  It hadn't occurred to her that it
is impossible to save up first and last month's rent while living on
minimum wage.  She gave herself $1000 to get started for her month's stint.

She did touch on the fact that working in the service industry seldom
includes benefits, which means health care is out of reach.  She also
acknowledged that she went into this experiment with a healthy body that 50
years of good medical care gave her.  She was working alongside
20-somethings whose bodies were already impaired with repetitive stress
injuries and the like.

I'm not sure that any other way is possible. I mean, I can't leave
*my* middle class values behind and I really am on the brink of
disaster.

I don't see anything wrong with falling back on contacts when the
going gets rough. I'm not sure about the nice cushion of money part.

We don't have moles. We do have coyotes that eat cats.

I meant to give her water before I left and forgot, so when I came
back, I put out a big bowl of water and a can of human tuna. I have
stockpiled cans of human tuna and salmon from when they are on sale.

I've never really thought about pet euthanasia before, but I know that
this dog and cat are basically very good pets. I could never be
responsible for killing them just because they have stupid owners. I
am really angry at the owners. I don't care how sad, pathetic, and
dreary their lives are, they have a responsibility to take care of
their pets. They told me the dog was moving to the country this
weekend, and I hope they really do that. I did tell them once that I
would take this cat if no one else would, and they told me they
thought that one of the kids' friends was taking it. Now that the
house is sold, I dunno. (Either sold or removed from the market; I
don't know. The sign is gone.)

Picture wire over the door to the magnet on the back. The picture wire
is tied with some boating knot I need to know and don't, but I know it

Exactly. The point at which Frank & I yanked Ben out of public school
was when he got in trouble for sitting at his desk reading Tolkien
while the rest of the class -- in the fourth grade! -- was drilling
on flash cards of "opposites" ("rough" vs. "smooth," etc.)

I've been thinking of pointing him toward P.D. James and maybe
Dorothy Sayers, but I'm not sure he'd enjoy the British-school stuff
after he's developed a taste for hard-boiled blood-n-guts. Maybe I'll
pick out the most graphic P.D. James I have here and suggest that one.

Not for me. I didn't get to bed until 2:30 last night (the party was
still booming away as I drifted off),and slept until about 9:30 this
morning. All I've done so far is walk the dog, eat breakfast, babble
in e-mail, and shift a few boxes trying to find the one with the CDs.
(No dice so far.)

You've never watched kids playing make-believe games based on the
superheroes they see on TV? Hell, I *still* have sex fantasies I
formed about TV characters at the tender age of 8 or so <blush --
well, at least it's imaginative>.

About the only anachronism in Cheryl's bathroom is a framed copy of a
1960s ad showing a bottle of mouthwash perched on top of one of the
walls at Notre Dame, with the headline "Gargoyle With Listerine." Ah,
those were the days.

Yes. And some of us are bitter and unhappy enough to be glad when
those consequences adversely effect those who are supposed to be our
friends. I'd rather be poor, thanks.

        I have many freshmen who are reading more advanced works than
what we're studying in class.  It evens out sophomore year,
though, because there's an enormous leap in terms of the
difficulty of the works.  Although I'm still trying to
figure out what makes Amy Tan Asian lit.

I like Bill Pronzini for hard-boiled--but then I also like Spenser.

Oh, don't get me wrong, I love Spenser -- it's one of the only
detective series I keep around. (The others I trade away or give to
Goodwill because I'm never interested in reading them more than
once.) But I don't delude myself that they're particularly
well-written.

She does a good job of making her Chinese characters understandable by
Americans.

But I wouldn't include her under Asian lit necessarily--there's whole
heck of a lot of real Asian lit out there!

Perhaps if you were not living this but rather researching for a book, you
would try to set aside those values and see it from the viewpoint of the
people who are born into poverty and minimum wage jobs.  For example, she
seemed to think that cleaning toilets was something that was in itself
demeaning.  I know people in the Inn business who clean toilets daily and
do not see the activity as demeaning.

Yes, but she had contacts to fall back on that few who have worked nothing
but minimum wage jobs would have.  For example, when she developed an
allergic skin reaction to cleaning fluids in her job as a maid, it didn't
take her long at all to phone up a dermatologist she knew in her "real"
life and have him fax up a prescription to the local pharmacy.

I'm not telling Janet what I would do in her shoes, which is what Natalie
was doing to you.  I'm simply disapproving of the whole idea of
promiscuity.  And, in truth, I'm not even all that disapproving.  It has
just begun to annoy me recently that Janet can post all this stuff that at
least 50% of wordslers disapprove of and yet no one says a word.  But when
Alan Wild or JMW or Jimmy the Fuck talk about guns and right wing
conspiracy stuff, then wordslers are all too eager to speak up and call
them paranoid and gun freaks.   And why is that?  Because we are all so
liberal and accepting of "alternative" lifestyles.   Well, I don't really
feel that way.  And I suddenly feel like admitting it instead of keeping my
mouth shut.  I think advertising for a group of fuck buddies is morally
corrupt and not simply an alternative to committed, loving sexual
relationships.

No.  Not that early.  I was going to give you grade 8 through
college.  But before 8th grade we were pretty much allowed to
read whatever we wanted for school.  In 5th grade we had little folded
construction paper books racing around the room for each book we
read.  We had to write a half page or so book report and stand up
and talk about it for a bout a minute.  I was getting behind
because some of the guys were reading Hardy Boys.  So I did too.

It wasn't until about 7th grade that I really discovered adult
kinds of books.  We were passing around "Where's Poppa" by Joseph
Klane and "Where There's Smoke", a just out Ed McBain book that
year, when my teacher told me to read "Of Mice and Men".  I think
that was the first time in years I'd been challenged, but could
get through it.

Right, I was just looking at what Junior Great Books has on their
reading list now, and I haven't read most of it.

In the spirit of Christmas, may I say that I wish a job for Karen, book
sales for Janet (and me), a nice programming job for Evelyn, and jobs
for anyone else who needs one whom I may have left out. I do not
understand wishing anyone ill in their chosen line of work, nor gloating
and chastising anyone for not doing things the way people think they
might do them if they were in the others' shoes.

This is a serious post.

Mhm maybe ... I don't realy have very strong opinions about this,
except that I find it physically painful to watch a whole movie or
more than an hour of continuous TV.

Ahem. *You* disapprove of it. I didn't hear a vote taken anywhere.

Personally, I disapprove of people who spend their lives sitting on
their asses and depending on someone else's income (and then having
the sheer stupid gall to talk about "choices" as though we were all
offered the same choices), but I don't generally use that as license
to attack people. Well, maybe I've started.

I also find it absolutely fascinating that you've managed to hold
your tongue about all this until less than 24 hours after I
acknowledged profound feelings of sadness and loss.

A fuck buddy *is* a committed, loving sexual relationship; it's
simply not a monogamous one. Say what you mean -- you disapprove of
anything but monogamy. I think your belief that the majority here
agrees with you is spectacularly clueless, given that any number of
people here have discussed affairs, serial monogamy, "same time next
year" long-term occasional relationships, and quite a few other
alternatives to monogamy.

Actually, I suspect that what you disapprove of is not nonmonogamy;
it's my refusal to lie, hide or act ashamed of nonmonogamy. Then
fucking killfile me. And dream on if you think I'm likely to darken
the door of anyone who thinks I'm "morally corrupt," this July or any
other time.

I hope his reading to date has already covered the writers who paved
the way for those you named: Hammett, Chandler, Macdonald.

He's doing Hammett right now -- picked up an omnibus at his dad's
house; I didn't have any here. I suggested McDonald to him as another
one he might enjoy, but I think I only have one of them. And I'm not
sure whether I have any Chandler... although I've decided to
alphabetize my fiction as I unpack it so that I can tell what I have
and what I don't.

Bonnie, quit projecting. Do not generalize from the one or three
posters who call Alan and the others names to the rest of us.
As someone who's never called anyone gun-nut, paranoid, right-wing
etc. I protest. One or two of the usual suspects do it - does not
mean the rest of us should be included in that group. Be more
precise in your finger-pointing.

I thought the topic was "selling smut". But I do detect that tediously
familiar symptom--the "it's all the same thing" symptom. I believe
that failed ambitions is the single leading cause of this grand turn
in a person's thinking.

Thank you for courageously stating this. As you know this is just about
the most unpopular view to hold in America today. Speaking out against
alternative lifestyles can easily get you beaten up.

What a petty, detail-sweating, micro-managing conception of morality.
Maybe someone should start making snippy remarks about you and ethics
as certain wordslers tirelessly do about Bethany and the law.

He doesn't write mysteries, for one. He's known for well-crafted
stories with dark humor and sardonic style. "The MacGuffin" is
the only thing by him I can recall now. The public library should
carry his stuff.

What kind of cat is it?  Persian, Siamese, Tabby?

I used to watch Amy Tan's Sagwa series when it was on PBS
here (it's a series about a Siamese kitten, her family, friends,

I'd never be self-deluded enough to think that I could do such a
thing.

Fear and depression have been my constant companions for over a
year. I suspect that people who only work minimum wage jobs wouldn't
be either as afraid or as depressed, because they don't know anything
better.

I hate cleaning toilets. It's germy and smelly. Doing germy, smelly
work can be thought of as demeaning. I think the point is to think of
it as a necessary job, make sure you protect yourself, and get on with
it.

How could she afford the prescription?

I'm getting to the point where my allergies and asthma are definitely
worse and my eyes need to be examined (I need a new prescription, I
think--which means at one new contact lens). I can't afford any of
this. Even if I do get a job, it's unlikely to include insurance, and
paying for this all out of pocket will run to $1000 easy. Let alone
finding the time to go all those places and wait.

It was one of the exceptions she made for herself.  She also decided going
into the experiment that she would never be without a car.  On the first
job in Florida she took her own car along.  On the other two jobs she used
Rent-a-Wreck.

The general stance, I find, of people who aren't enacting some sort
of agenda -- perhaps regretting past choices and thus justifying them
as the only moral thing to do. People who are happy, IMO, rarely feel
the need to express negative judgments about other folks' ways of
life; it's those who aren't happy with their own lives who strike out.

I didn't *study* Ancient Greek till college, but I read a lot of
translated stuff early on. I worked my way through the fairy tale
section of our library, which has helped me enormously later on. (I
learned all about wearing kimono through that, for example.)

I see why you're so critical of her--that alone would rule her out of
most minimum-wage-worker's realities. I am exquisitely aware of a) how
lucky I am to have my car and b) how I cannot afford anything to
happen to it. Though the accident I had was perfect:  someone backed
into me, the insurance company paid me $1200, and Ligniere did the
work in an hour for free.

Very nice of you and I am an ass. Since I am an ass let me mention
this further thing: I have been feeling really happy the last few

He is an English antiques dealer who is a con man at heart and gets into
all sorts of situations, some quite dangerous. There are about a dozen
books in the series and my mind just jammed at who wrote them. Jonathan
Gash.
The TV one was pixie-like, but in the book he is heavier.
A very popular series for detective/mystery lovers.

        Well, my complaint is that my World Lit class is completely

World Lit is even more morally corrupt than being
non-monogamous.

        Luckily, I teach high school and my kids, were they to get me

go right in the food donation bin in January.  Ana's
teachers are getting Borders gift cards.

Oh dear.  Do I need to take down my "Rebel Without a Cause" poster?
Hmm.  I could replace it with my "War Is Dangerous To Children And Other
Living Things" poster, which would be an excellent choice right now, but
I don't know what ever happened to it.  I'm pretty sure I no longer have
it.

Taking the word "obsidian" out cut it in half. Taking
"earrings" out, half of that. I am not sure what it will
whittle down to. Anyway, most of the ones I see are pretty
lame. Too geometric, or something, and sometimes the wrong
color.

Sure. I can hardly hear you above the roar of wordslers
rushing to froogle.

I'm not sure what we're talking about.  I don't remember seeing the
original, but the "good to hear" above makes it sound as if the writer
of it was against publishing smut.  I'm not sure how I fit into that or
for that matter into anything re this topic.  What did I <do to you>?  I
do agree with Bonnie's statement that we make our choices and live with
the consequences, but then how could one not agree with that?  It's
about as <commonsensical> as a statement can get.

SHOULD WE TRAVEL TO BALI?

The cowardice and horrible terrorist act in Bali is an attack on the
civilized
society and the way we live our normal lives. If World Trade Center attacks
the nerve of business and financial world, the bombing in Bali is an attack
on
the world of leisure, the world of international travel and global
interactions that have become an inseparable part of our daily lives.

Don't let the terrorists win. Stopping with our daily life activities means
succumbing to the fear they want to instill in our lives; stopping our
travel
means we surrender our freedom to the horrible acts of a few lunatics. Just
as
the world of business did not stop with the attacks on World Trade Center,
just as the financial world did not stop with these terrorist actions,
neither
should we stop to travel!

Don't let terrorists ruin our day!

Moreover, Bali needs you right now. The streets of Bali are now mostly
empty,
hotel rooms are vacant. Bali's livelihood depends mostly on tourism
industry.
If you stop coming, billions of dollars will be removed from Bali's economy.
If you stop coming, there are at least 150,000 people whose jobs are at risk
(some are already asked to stay at home right now), with hundreds of
thousands
more lives depend on the income generated by these people.

Please don't stop coming to Bali! Bali needs you.

I saw a nice one at the Container store. It looks like a large
keyhole--the round part of the keyhole hangs on the door when the
doorstop is not in use. The flared part of the keyhole is the doorstop
part.

First, let me state that "Rita Chapman"--love of my life next
only to Jeanenne Gorafolo--has brightened my poor life again
with another hilariously absurd aspect of the Rita Chapman
biography. We thank Rita copiously for this.

First of all, K*R*N, it's "Zora Neale", and I wonder WTF
kind of education you got if you didn't catch that.

Secondly, due to the endorsement of Rita Chapman, I am going
to read many poems by this guy, with an "open mind". We thank
Rita again.

As for poems about China and Japan: have you read the ones
by Mr Empson himself? I think they are two or even three in
number. I can't take my eyes off them when I open the book.
I love Empson, and I am saying this in the most heterosexual
way possible.

"Death by Holy Orders"(??) -- something like that -- is fairly graphic.
It's the most recent PDJ book I've read, possibly her most recent book,
though I bought it in paperback long enough ago to mean that it first
came out <unrecently>.  I'm trying to cast my mind back on her earlier
books, of which I think I've read all, but I can't remember the
graphics.  I do remember enjoying that odd book she wrote, one that was
more psychological than detectivish -- "Holy Blood" -- something like
that.  But that's not relevant to Ben's interests, and we're talking
ancient history here since in one of my odd brain flakes I happen to
remember where I was when I was reading it -- sitting in the backyard of
a house I sold in '83.  It's weird how my brain hangs onto tiny snippets
of no great relevance while totally losing lots of more important
things.  It makes a certain sense that I would remember sitting on a
bench at the Alhambra reading Irving, but why do I remember where I was
when reading a particular PDJ book?

Speaking of brain oddities, I have a fear that I will forever onward
associate the beginning of "The Hallelujah Chorus" with Spencer's face
in a carwash.  Sometime shortly after I had added the cd-player to my
car, I went through a carwash with Spencer aboard -- on the way back
from visiting my mother, I guess.  This was Spencer's first visit to
such a place, and just as the cd launched into "The Hallelujah Chorus,"
the spray started moving over the car.  Spencer looked quite startled.
I've heard the HC a couple of times since then and have thought
instantly of Spencer and the carwash.  But only at the beginning.  Later
in it I have other associations.

I intepreted your broken sentence to mean that people who aren't happy
with their own lives continuously express how wonderful their own
lives are. That's what I disagree with. Did you mean something else?

This comes as no surprise after seeing the number he did on Trent
Lott on SNL last night. Even with the target being in the opposing

active in elective politics.

You've got it inverted -- she was saying, I think, that people who
continuously express etc. aren't happy with their own lives.

Where would I see such a thing?  And how would I know that such games
were based on tv?  I do remember playing cowboy games in my neighborhood
after seeing Roy Rogers  movies at the Pix on Saturday afternoons, of
course.

I had never seen a tv set at the age of eight.  But back to the original
point.  Of course children play games related to things they've seen or
read or heard about.  We played war games in my neighborhood quite often
-- <killing> "the Japs and the Germans."  That's not really the kind of
thing I was wondering about re the differences between reading a novel
or seeing a movie.  Extensions can happen with either.  I was talking
about the process at the moment of the activity -- like imagining what
the people and scenes looked like based on the words written rather than
on pictures in front of you.

I understand that the structures are different, but I don't see that
the meaning is.

Whatever, I think there is no correlation between how one talks about
one's life and one's happiness. I plan to talk a LOT about how great
my life is when it becomes better.

I haven't been sure during any of this discussion exactly what you mean
by "middle class values."  Middle-class habits, yes.  I understand
that.  But I'm not sure how that fits with values.

Did she point out how her situation was different in these respects?
Something you said earlier made me think she did (about her years of
good nutrition etc.)  That makes a difference, imho, about the <value>
of the book.  It can raise consciousness for somebody to read that and
think, "Yes -- I hadn't thought of that before.  I have the advantage of
years of good nutrition."  Or "Yes -- she can call her friend to fax the
prescription for her, whereas most people couldn't do that."  Or "Yes --
she started with $1,000 and caught on later why the peers in her fake
life couldn't live in a trailer."  Those are important insights to
convey.

For one thing, the author really looked down on women who shop at
WalMart.  She made all kinds of uncalled for snide remarks about them.  And
she drew all kinds of unwarranted conclusions about them.  For example, she
assumed they left the dressing rooms and display areas in a mess because
they were resentful for having to pick up the messes in their own homes.

Yes, there were probably some insights to be gained from the book.   The
main flaw of the book is probably the flaw in lots of books or research of
that type:  thinking that one can truly understand a segment of society by
paying a short visit to that society, disguised as one of them.

Ahh, so that is why my name was dragged in.  As I said earlier, I like
hearing what different people would do in different situations.  But
fear not.  I've caught on that that attitude is mutant.  Many people
don't want to hear such things, even if they ask.  Witness Amy's
response to Rita's suggestion of xmas presents for teachers.  Rita said
what she might do, and Amy jumped down her throat.

Huh?  My mind is boggling.  Have you actually taken a survey (I don't
remember seeing it), or are you simply presuming to pronounce the
attitudes of at least 50% of Wordslers??  I think it's probably safe to
say (though I haven't taken a survey -- this is just a guess, not a
pronouncement) that way over 50% of Wordslers would not choose Janet's
<lifestyle>.  But not choosing it does not mean being offended or
disapproving.

I can't speak for others, but I can say that I find guns scary.  I don't
find Janet's life scary.  (I'm suddenly laughing at the memory of the
conversation I told about here a long time ago -- about my describing
Janet's life and the person saying, "Aren't you scared of her?")

There's nothing at all wrong with your saying so.  Only two questions:
Why did you wait so long to state your opinion, and why do you think
others are just sitting here silently agreeing with you but not speaking
up?  I find it amazing that you waited so long to say what you thought.
I had never taken you for that reticent.

Yep. We cloned on that point yesterday (in our respective time zones, of

I never watch, but did defer to my mother's wishes during her visit that

I don't watch Leno but caught him on Letterman where he didn't suck,
or make me cringe. Highly unusual for Gore.

Good riddance. Glad to see him go.

I can watch one movie, but I've never been able to do two in a row.  I
*hated* the days of double-features (when I was with a date or with
others and was trapped through a second movie).  I don't know that I've
ever watched more than an hour of continuous tv.  But I don't see that
as anything related to the <quality> of the offerings.  It's just that
my attention-span for viewing isn't very long.

Let me see if I have this straight (so far). A wl female in SF ran - or
tried to run - an ad seeking fuck buddies. People objected to the ad. It
ws posted to the list. Wordslers discussed possible reasons for the
objections (length, posting category, etc.) Discussion of commitment in
sexual relationships followed. Eventually, a former Roman Catholic nun on
the list (now married to a man who has been married at least once
before) objected to sexual promiscuity and said "I think advertising for a
group of fuck buddies is morally corrupt and not simply an alternative to
committed, loving sexual relationships." She was applauded by at least
one person and chastised by at least one person for claiming that 50% of
the list object to <alternative lifestyles>. When asked some questions
about why she waited so long to say what she did about monogamy, the
former RC nun clammed up with "I said my piece and I am no longer
discussing this." Is this where we are on this/these topic/s?

Emily says hi to words-l. She (and her new beau) were in Philly
and stopped by for lunch. She loves her new house and is busy
tearing down the wall-paper, knocking down walls etc.

Adam, she wants to know if you've settled on a date for Snowbash.

She's on board for Namibia 2004.

Well, jeeze, Karen, I didn't hear about them until college, and even then
only because I was a history major with a Classics minor! I think my intro
to Western civ history course started with the ancient Greeks and Romans but
certainly focused more on Plato and Aristotle than on the historians.

I've heard back from their mother. Alicia would love some necklaces,
especially pendants, for make-believe playing, and Joseph likes Clifford and
board books (those made out of rigid board that can't be torn).

This is what shocked me about Bonnie's posting.  I see nothing at all
wrong with her expressing her personal view, but I do not believe she
should be speaking for "at least 50% of Wordslers" (rough quotation
there) without having evidence that such a vote has been conducted or
without any kind of qualification.

As one who has agreed with the idea of choices, let me make clear that I
did not mean to suggest that we all have the same choices.  That is
certainly not true.  But I do believe it is true that we all make
various choices in life and live with the consequences of those
choices.  I don't think the fact that Bonnie has chosen to live a
financially parasitical life changes the truth of the general statement
that everybody makes choices in life.

I hadn't thought about that timing, and since I do not think Bonnie is a
mean person, I really don't think she thought about it either.  But I
was, as I said earlier, fascinated that she held her tongue for years,
for what reason I have no idea.

The lovely little curly-tailed Serendipity Jane has brought a mouse into
our dining room.  Three cats and a man with a dish towel have only
succeeded in chasing it into the kitchen and then into the living room
where it hides in close proximity to the lit and decorated real Christmas
tree.  Here's hoping both mouse and cat don't decide to climb.

The Lovejoy series---written by Jonathon Gash (great name for a surgeon,
what?)---has as it central character an antique dealer in England.  Lovejoy
has the innate ability to sense authentic antiques; he operates on the
fringes of acceptable society and can produce a fake antique better than
most.  Good stuff, especially in terms of the material dealing with
antiques, how to spot them, how to fake them, etc.

Gash has pretty much given up Lovejoy (incidentally, Alyce's note was
spot-on---the TV Lovejoy is a highly sanitized version) and has written a
couple of mystery novels involving a female physician and a male prostitute.

She had a stash of money for the experiment, didn't she?  Or perhaps she
put it on a credit card and paid only the minimum when the bill came.
But I still think that if the book made these points -- explained the
ways her situation was different from a <real> such situation -- it
might do some eye-opening.  (I haven't read it and am not saying that it
does.  I'm saying an "if.")

And this is another example of why I think the US medical system sux
royally.  I've known many people, btw, who are fully employed yet can't
afford to do the things you just described.  Fully employed and with
medical insurance as a fringe benefit.  I've never known of medical
insurance without a hefty deductible and that, even after the deductible
had been met, paid anything close to full costs.  Of that $1000 you
mentioned, my insurance might pay about $200.  No, that's not true.  It
wouldn't pay for a contact lens.  But a fully employed person would at
least have some income.  Nevertheless, that person might not be able to
afford medical care.  A friend of mine once fell down a flight of stairs
and broke a bone from eye problems that she couldn't afford to deal
with.  She was fully employed with insurance.

Oh, Canada.

I disagree.  I consider myself happy but would express negative
judgments about various ways of life -- thievery, molestation, severe
mutilation of the environment, etc. etc. etc.

I care, but it's too late.  Sixty Minutes ended over thirty minutes

Btw, I was reading my mother's Jackson paper when visiting her this
afternoon and was happy to see so many anti-Trent letters in it.  A
couple of them were from out of state, which is more likely a hindrance
than a help in trying to get rid of him.  But several were from in the
state and said that his foot-in-mouth disease was a huge embarrassment
to the state.  And it is.  It would be so very wonderful if we could get
rid of him, both for the sake of the country as a whole and for the sake
of the reputation of this state.

I'm trying to think back on my cat-feeding experiences, but they've all
been a long time ago.  A typical tunafish can would seem small for a
dog, but I guess not for a cat.

Magnificent summary, except for a couple of details I obviously

That does make me wonder about her in general.  Like why did she even
want to do this experiment if she was so condescending?

One book of that type that I remember finding really good -- but it was
when I was very young -- I should read it again sometime -- was _Black
Like Me_.  I read it right after it came out -- sometime in the '50s,
iirc.  I don't remember it very well now, but I do remember reading it
with great interest.

I have read some articles written by Barbara Ehrenreich--this was
pretty long ago--and I found them pretty solid, thought out and
well expressed. This books sounds very unlike them.

Pretty much, though what you said about the applause and chastisement
isn't totally clear, imho.  That suggests applause as in "Hear! Hear!  I
agree!" and chastisement as in, "What a ridiculous view!"  I don't
remember such responses.  I think I'm probably not alone in thinking
that she is right to say what she thinks but that it is weird to have
waited so long to say it.  Also, your summary above leaves out the fact
that we have known what Janet does in both her personal and her
professional life for years.  It's not as if her mention of the ad was a
<coming-out>.

Sure she is.  Didn't you have to master cunieform before passing out of
the first grade?  I can't remember whether we did that before or after
learning the cyrillic alphabet and reading Dostoevsky.  We didn't get
into reading Greek until second grade, though.  We stuck to translations
of Plato in first grade.

If you didn't understand then, I doubt that you'd understand any reply
to your question.  Some people live whole lives without ever being able
to grasp the meaning of irony.  JimF (aka Jimmy the Fuck) understood.

By using naughtycodes.com, I just saved 16.39 ($15 code plus tax) on an
Office Depot order for 2 printer cartridges (for my home computer) - and
learned that I get free delivery to my UT office!

That's sexy enough for me this evening!

Maybe.  I'll keep you updated.   I just moved the lamp so that wouldn't go

somewhere in the living room.  Too many things for it to get behind or under.

She wanted to simply write an article on how hard it was to live on minimum
wage.   She mentioned to her publisher that it would be a good thing for
someone to go and try it.  But she was thinking of someone younger than
her.  She was in her 50s when this all happened.  Her publisher talked her
into doing it.

Yes, I remember reading that book also.  Didn't something awful happen to
the author because of the medication he took to make himself black?  I'll
bet real black people saw right through him.  But white people might not have.

Yes, it appears to be.  I was just shining a flashlight in his face while

I just clicked for the first time today on the feed-the-animals site and
clicked on one of their sponsors since I try to do that regularly --
since I think such clicks get recorded.  I also try to hang around for a
few minutes if I have time since I think the hanging around might help,
though I'm not at all sure of that.  Anyway, the sponsor I chose to
click on this time was Barnes and Noble.  As part of my hanging around,
I entered 'maynor' in the search box and found that my co-edited book is
in stock and can ship within 24 hours.  But here's the funny part.  I
looked at the list of what people who had bought it had also bought and
found _Black Like Me_ as I think the first one on the list.  I find that
way weird, given that I haven't thought about BLM in years but mentioned
it on Words-L a little while ago.

        I went to Walmart yesterday and I regretted it.  I hate the
Walmart near me.  It is overcrowded and filthy.  You can't
even push a cart up an aisle.  And whatever they were
cooking in that little cafe place smelled downright rancid.
  Target's prices aren't as good, but at least I can shop
without gagging.

        Does that mean I have middle class <values>?

        In any case, there are enough truly poor writers out there
that must be regretting not thinking their real lives are
interesting enough to write about.

        I LOOOOOOOOVE being rich.

I wish I remembered more than I do about it.  I do have a very vague
memory that there might have been some kind of side-effect of what he
did to turn himself black, but I don't remember that it was something
awful.  I'm also not sure now what the book said about his reception by
blacks.

In her statement, the set of unhappy people includes the subset of
people who express wonderfulness, but is not exclusive to them --
IOW, it is possible to be unhappy without expressing wonderfulness.
In yours, the set of people who express wonderfulness includes the
subset of unhappy people, but is not exclusive to them.

You left out my rather <brisk> responses. And I think she was
applauded by one or two people for speaking her mind, but universally
chastised for making her assumptions about how many Wordslers approve
or disapprove of me. But otherwise you're right on.

Well, that's where we differ -- I *do* think Bonnie is a mean person.
And although I think she probably didn't choose her timing
consciously in order to kick me when I was down, I wonder about her
instinct for attacking someone while they're weak. I wonder about it
a lot, actually.

All the fulltime jobs I had from '84 has vision insurance as an

I don't disagree that the medical care system in this country sucks,
but I think you a fool for looking on Canada as an example.

Those affect you directly, or do demonstrable harm to others. I
should have made myself clearer -- I was describing people who
express negative judgments about matters that are none of their
fucking business.

I drove all the way to San Leandro tonight to take advantage of the
rug sale at Macy's. The rug that they'd advertised in the paper was
not available on the floor. The "salesman" asked if I'd like him to
go check the stockroom, and I said that would be great -- and then
stood there and watched him talking to another customer who was
interested in a recliner for about 15 minutes. And then they were out
of stock on both that rug and the second one I chose. Infuriating.

        I could not possibly compete on the same pedestal as your
paramour, and I am deeply flattered and wondering if I'm
reading this truly as it may be all a hallucination since
I've just come from a cocktail party given by a gentleman
who student taught in my <cohort> and was attended by a
bunch of once and future high school English teachers, which
is scary enough without adding in lots of wine and even if I
only had one glass, well, the atmosphere was such as it
would make the least among us heady and dreamy with the
sheer daring of such a group of people ready and willing to
go out and do battle with adolescents armed only with a Holt
anthology, the Secret of the Comma Splice, and a modicum of
classroom management black magic.  You'll excuse me if I'm a
touch giddy after all this and a declaration of admiration
from he of the Dynamic Ass has nearly slew me.

It is to blush.

Flutes and drums are ok by me.  We didn't know whether Jessica
was ready for blocks, but we bought them anyway, figuring if she
didn't build with them she could use them as projectiles.  Turns
out she's not the toy throwing type.  Turns out she is into
sorting, and has been seen pulling her fruit loops out of the
bowl and sorting them by color.  She took the blocks, and found
one rectangle of each color and put one cylinder of the same
color on top of the rectangle.  We were all scared.

Well, I didn't find any Lübecker Marzipan in Bremen - we weren't in Bremen really, but in a small town. Vegesack north of Bremen proper (but still within the Bremen Hansestadt/Bundesland), so their specialities were more of the kind of canned ship's bread, ships in bottles etc. There was lots of good herring and such stuff. If I had wished to I could also have had Norwegian Akvavit with my Norwegian salmon (I had none of those). Yesterday for lunch I had Lotseteller (Pilot's plate?): black rye bread with lots of small shrimps and on top of that two fried eggs (sunny side up). This would probably have been very good with  akvavit as well, but I stuck to beer since I had two flights ahead: first from Bremen to Amsterdam and then from there to Oslo and only 40 minutes between estimated landing in Amsterdam and the next departure. I did catch my plane(s) BTW.

And really interesting times are when there is ice below and dry, freshly fallen snow over it.

I wish I could find a teacher-ish sack-like jumper.  I'm by
no means a <whorish> dresser, but I feel like being even
more sexless since I found out one of my students has a
crush on me (I thought I was safe from that for some
reason).  I went poking through Famous Saturday, but no
luck.  Maybe there's a teacher wardrobe store called
Morphodite somewhere that I simply don't know about.

        It's an absurd problem, and if one of my students doesn't
make me one in shop class, then I'll do it over the winter
break when I have some time.  I'm going to go in one day in
any case if I can arrange with the maint. staff to do some
major furniture rearranging.  I have an itty bitty room in
the oldest (1920's maybe) part of the building, and way too
much good space is being taken up by two enormous cabinets
full of social studies books.

I did a froogle search on jumper dress and filled in between $40

My insurance covers (theoretically -- i.e., if I ever reached the
deductible) care given by an opthalmologist for eye health, but it does
not cover glasses or contacts or optometrists.

It gets difficult to determine what is one's business in conversations,
though.  When somebody brings up a subject in a conversation, does it
remain none of your business or are you expected to consider it your
business at that point?  I don't know the answer.  There's business and
there's business, though.  Obviously something casually mentioned in a
conversation doesn't become your <true> business.  There's probably a
better word than business for what it becomes, but I can't think of it
at the moment.

Where does willful obtuseness fit into the topic of what is one's

What is old-fashioned nonsense?  Thought what way?  I can't remember now
exactly what it was Janet said about Bonnie's life -- something about
having no respect for her opinions since she lived off of somebody
else's income.  On the subject of what is one's business, I think I
would say that people's personal living arrangements probably are not
anybody else's business unless opinions are asked for.  Anyway, I
replied above that I don't think Bonnie's particular situation affects
the truth of the statement that people have choices and live with the
consequences of those choices -- though not everybody has exactly the
same choices.

Maybe it's not your body that has inspired the crush.  Maybe it is your
competence and sparkling personality.  You wouldn't want to drape that.

I presume that you are speaking from experience.  That was the situation,
together with a strong, very gusty wind that put me on my back, on top of a
backpack filled with camera gear.  Three months in a rib-belt and no
sneezing for a month.

That's just your regular health insurance. Vision insurance specifically
covers optometry, and usually a pair of glasses/contacts every two years. I
benefited from this at Dell, because I had to have a contact replaced, then
I lost it, and my insurance paid for the 2nd replacement (because it was a
pair). Vision insurance is often not worth the extra cost, though.

Calling wives who don't work outside the home "financial parasites"
is narrow-minded and old-fashioned.

I remember SRA cards.  In fact I have this niggling suspicion
that my Great Uncle Justin was the vp at IBM in charge of that.
Well, or that he had his hands in there somewhere.

And I guess it's not true that no one pointed me in the right
direction.  I used to have priveleges to walk to the public library
after school, and I used to hang out there a lot.  I'm pretty
amazed that I can't remember what I was reading before I was 13.
I do know, though, that it mostly came from the children's side
of the library.  Not that there's not some excellent teen
literature, but I was mostly not reading "grown up" stuff.  I
read some Judy Blume.  I read some Caldicott Medal books.  I read
The Great Brain books.  I read Encylopedia Brown.

I didn't start reading science fiction until my aunt and uncle
turned me on to Larry Niven and Ringworld.  That was maybe when I
was 14.  Then I read Asimov and Clarke and all the
Niven/Pournelle, and a bit of Narnia, though I got stuck
somewhere and never finished.  By then I was also scrounging
around in my aunt and uncles paperbacks, as well as my mom's
mysteries - among them Agatha Christie and the Kemelman Rabbi
mysteries.

It had to have. At least in my library, you couldn't check out stuff from
the adult side till after 8th grade. This annoyed me no end. I read stuff at
home, or people gave me books.

I was reading Podkayne of Mars when Kennedy was shot. The only reason I was
reading it was because I'd read all my books and Rosemary Eager lent it to me.

Yes, I was talking about my regular insurance.  There may be such a
thing as add-on vision insurance here, although I don't remember hearing
of it.

I had contact insurance many, many years ago when I first started
wearing contacts, but I dropped it pretty quickly when I realized that
you came out behind instead of ahead unless lost a contact at least once
a year.  And I don't think I ever lost a contact at any time in my years
of wearing them.

Narrow-minded??  I can see how it might be narrow-minded to think that
in one-income families it has to be the husband providing the income.
Otherwise, I don't see your point at all.  And I certainly don't think
it has to be the wife who doesn't have a job.  I think it's entirely up
to the couple involved as to whether one or both have outside jobs,
which one it is who does or doesn't, and what they do around the house.
A couple's <symbiotic> preferences really are none of anybody else's
business, imho.  Or at least not unless it's a "Snake"-like scenario,
speaking of Hurston.  Outside intervention might have been appropriate
there -- although she got him in the end.

I also don't get the old-fashioned part.  The old-fashioned way was
indeed for the wife to stay home and cook and clean and rear children
while the husband went out to work.

Last week Steve took his Hebrew School kids (the 5th/6th graders) to The Lorraine
Kimsa Theatre for Young People to see a performance of Miracle Worker.  The kids
were spellbound and full of questions after the show.  So - this week, Steve decided
to follow up with more information about Helen Keller and Anne Sullivan. I had
remembered that we had a copy of Keller's poem "Song of the Stone Wall" and I
sent him some excerpts - which he read to the kids.  The discussion that followed
turned to how important Annie Sullivan's disability was in making her a good teacher
for Helen Keller.  Steve asked them if they thought it was vital to being able to help
someone to have had similar experience.  One of the kids spoke up immediately and
said that believed direct experience was not necessary and went on to tell about the
doctors who helped him beat cancer last year.  Steve knew about the situation, but
the kids had not known and it was a very powerful moment that these kids will
remember for a long time.

Dean is fine, but doesn't stand a chance. I think Kerry.
If it's Gebhardt or Lieberman, I will be in a terrible situation, as I
can't see myself voting for either of these two mush-mouthed,
namby-pamby, swaying from one side to the other, wavering,
say-and-do-anything-to-please creeps.

Same in Chicago, except with special permission. The children's
librarian gave her OK and my parents did too, because I'd read damned
near everything there was in the children's section. My first adult book
checked out was "Seven Keys to Baldpate."

Try the j. jill catalog. Pretty things (good fabrics, nice colors),

> Pa-rum-pum--pum-pum.

This brings to mind a vision of all the school
programs I attended through the years.  They
always sang this song.  The first few times it
was cute to see the kids, all fresh and clean and
in their best clothes, all in a row, looking so
angelic and singing their little hearts out . . .
especially my kids, who were of course the
focus of my attention.  But over the years, with
so many opportunities to witness this ritual rendering,
I began to see the kid in the back row who was
poking the girl in front of him, to notice the kids
who didn't know the words, to worry about
whether their constant shifting from foot to foot
would bring down that wooden tier thing they
were standing on.  And to wonder if even
the monotones couldn't be taught to distinguish
between the TWO notes.  And eventually to
wish that I should never again have to listen to
pa-rum-pum-pum-pum.

... and not in the good way.

My housemate's wife had her interview for her visa application today and was turned
down.  Interviews only happen at the Embassy in Moscow and it was a four day train
ride for her to get there.  She was rejected because the computer records showed
that he is here illegally.  He is, in fact, here legally but they had not updated the file
with his visa extension which was approved about three months ago.  So, she has to
return home and reapply.  I seems as if they should, at the very least, have refused
the in-person interview based on the information they had rather than waiting until
she got there to tell her.  It is so unfair - but that of course means nothing to the
bureaucrats.  Grrrrrrrr.

No, what I said was that I "disapproved" of such choices -- which, in
general, I do. The point was that my disapproval does not entitle me
to make sweeping moral judgments of such people.

I guess my inner Puritan shows up in matters of work, and Bonnie's in
matters of sex.

Try maternity. Two of my favorite jumpers are from maternity (within the
last ten years, not when pregnant). They just hang loosely and are
great. One is stone-washed denim and the other is corduroy. J Jill is my
favorite place, but rather pricey. The maternity things were like
$15-$20.

I find it amazing that people can remember such details.  My childhood
friend (she of the St. Nicholas Day present) sent me a pair of angels that
we had made in Brownies.   She found them when cleaning out her parents'
home before they went off to the nursing home.  I recognized them right
away as something I had molded and painted as a child.  But Rose Ann
remembered the woman's house where we made them and all the little details
of the event.  I have absolutely no memory of any of that.

I believe that housewifin' is an  honorable and undervalued
profession for either gender, particularly when kids are involved.
But the housewives who I respect -- and there are many -- fill their
time with constructive activities: one volunteers as a martial arts
teacher for kids and spends hours and hours at her own kids' charter
school; another is rehabbing her family's Victorian and has been
doing so for over a decade. I'm also fine with partnerships in which
one partner is being supported while s/he works on a non-remunerative
project or goal -- some form of art, voluntarism, or a very
low-paying profession like preschool care.

Fact is, I think in general that one-career households work better
than two-career ones -- I think the work of running a household well
is, or can be, a full-time-plus job (remember the study a few years
back about what it would cost to hire professionals to do the work of
the average housewife?), and that the breadwinner in such
relationships is made able to win more bread by coming home to a
smoothly running household -- this is simple, logical division of
labor.

But I grew up in wealthy communities, heavily populated with female
lilies of the field whose lives consisted of a rotating schedule of
tennis, lunch, nap, dinner and socializing. I genuinely have a hard
time with that -- healthy, bright women who choose to give nothing
back to the world that enables them to live so comfortably.

Where I differ from Bonnie is that I *know* my disapproval is heavily
salted with envy -- I've always had to work hard to make ends meet,
and having someone else do that for me (or having someone else take
care of the mundane stuff at home while I'm working) sounds
inexpressibly luxurious. And also I don't think my disapproval
entitles me to cast aspersions on such people -- at least not unless
they attack me first.

I couldn't have said it better myself.

I forebore to paint walls last night because Ben was in the mood to
put the tree up. We haven't decorated it yet, and we also found that
we couldn't complete our other evening project -- reassembling the
futon -- because there was a part missing. Just as well: we both went
to bed early and are thus starting our week, which includes finals
for him and more unpacking and holiday preparation for me, afresh.

Because she is two and did this all by herself.  No one suggested
it.  No one modelled it.  None of her friends do this stuff,
apparently.

Is this normal for a 2 year old?  None of us knew.

My folks, bless their hearts, always allowed me to read whatever I
wanted. I can remember picking up "The $100 Misunderstanding" at a
relative's house when I was eight or nine -- my mom swallowed hard
when she saw me reading it, then asked if I understood what I was
reading and if I had any questions.

Likewise. They'd sit me down with the box, and I would read all the
little cards and answer all the questions in a day or two. Then
they'd get the advanced box, and then the box from the next grade up.
And by then we were two weeks into the semester, and they'd give up
and let me read what I wanted.

No, I think it's quite surprising for a 2-year-old. Do her parents

There was a two-year-old who came in with her father to Sears
one day last week.  Not only did she know what a sweeper is
for and how to use it, she wanted the Barbie Go Vac enough
that her father bought it for her.

Talking about "The $100 Misunderstanding" made me think I'd like to
read it again as an adult and see what I think of it, so I went to
Amazon to look at it. It's still in print, and apparently selling
pretty well. But what gave me pause was:

Customers who bought this book also bought:

     * My Name Is Red by Orhan Pamuk, Erdag M. Goknar (Translator)
(Paperback) [I had to look it up; it's a historical mystery that
takes place in 16th-century Turkey]
     * The Map That Changed the World: William Smith and the Birth of
Modern Geology by Simon Winchester, Soun Vannithone (Paperback)
     * The Explosive Child: A New Approach for Understanding and
Parenting Easily Frustrated, Chronically Inflexible Children by Ross
W., Ph.D. Greene, Ross W. Greene (Paperback)
     * On Writing : A Memoir of the Craft by Stephen King (Paperback)
     * Basket Case by Carl Hiaasen (Hardcover)

OK, I can see the Hiaasen. But the others??

That was the age at which Ben liked to drag all my pots and pans out
of the cupboard while announcing what each one was for -- noodles,
soup, etc. The child *is* father to the man.

However, I can't remember him being particularly musical at that age,
or at any age up until 12 or 13. The music thing hit him well into
adolescence. A shame, reallly, because if he'd been interested
earlier we could have gotten him lessons back at the age when they
take more readily.

It really stands out in my memory, my 7th grade English teacher
who pointed me to "Of Mice and Men".  I was constantly reading,
but I wasn't every really satisfied by it, just kept busy by it.
Any direction would have been good as opposed to random
directions.

I have the same feeling about the teacher in 10th grade who assigned

been exposed to modern poetry, and it rocked my world.

You do know that Hebrew school is a different kind of beast than
Catholic school.  You're not just being weird, right?

    Oh, I don't know.  I went to a "big box" super-mega W*lmart Friday for the first
time, the kind where they hand out maps at the front door, and found it a satisfying
experience.  Apparently so did my fellow shoppers, as everyone was polite and of good
cheer, as opposed to the pissed-off stroller moms battering their way through the
mall...

has her BA in film and did marketing for an engineering firm when

They let me (and other fast readers) grade the other kids' cards. Gave
me a grand feeling of power, I must say.

These things are meaningless, given that libraries buy large assortments
of books from Amazon, so that any combination of books might be
purchased together with any given title.

I remember stuff before three that happened in our first apartment. We
moved from there before I was three. I remember its exact layout and
drew a plan of it some years ago that amazed my mother. She could not
believe that I could remember that, even the furniture placement. Also
recall my parents waking me up one night because there was a mouse in
the bathtub. And I stood up at the end of my crib and watched trains,
because we were right at the edge of the tracks. Oh, I remember tons of
stuff from pre-three.

Yankee or any of the other candle stores are an instant headache. Bath and

Let me see if I can summarize:

Karen reads Xenophon and I say I've never heard of him.  Karen
asks wtf kind of education I had.  I detail it.  In hindsight I
wish people would have pointed me in some direction.  Karen
thinks randomness is fine.

Karen is critical of my education and also finds it fine.

Ok!

I was mostly surprised that you'd never heard of Xenophon. It never
occurred to me to depend on anyone to point me anywhere, and frankly,
if they did, I would have resisted. I think your education has holes,
but so does mine.

Well, in my case, so was Hebrew.  I went because I asked to go,
not because my parents sent me.

And speaking of our dinner at Mache last Friday, I still feel very guilty
that I wouldn't even try the mussels.  I ordered as my entree the salmon
which came with a mussel and couscous side.  I assumed that the mussels
part of it would just be some kind of sauce flavoring or something on the
couscous.  But no.  There was very little couscous but there were 13
mussels in the shell.  I picked at one and it was so disgusting I knew I'd
never put it in my mouth.  What a waste.  Clyde wouldn't even eat them.  He
calls oysters "snot on a shell", an opinion he shared with me over
dinner.  Yuck.  The salmon was very good however.  And the salad had
incredibly fresh greens for this time of year.  There was even watercress
in it.

I wasn't dependant on it, but in hindsight I wish people had

Sorry.  This one comes and goes with me all the time.  I just
found a website with the lyrics on it and forgot all about the
snotty brother going, "Nyah nyah won't come up", so you can have
that too.  The song is different from the book, though.

Congratulations!  You've beat my best.

I'm puzzled by my one game this morning.  It
closed out (under protest) at 511,12 and it said
I was an Archivist.  That is wrong.  I was an
Archivist once at 229 and another time at 284.
I don't get it.

I find it scary that this would matter to anyone.  The game is quite addictive and I
love playing it.  I find getting a big score for a particular word very satisfying, but I
couldn't tell you what my final score was any time I've played it.

I agree with that.  I remember an essay in a freshman reader from many
years ago titled "I Need a Wife."  The author was a single female
talking about how hard it was to get everything done and how envious she
was of her colleagues who had stay-at-home spouses taking care of the
running of the household.  Normally "household" suggests more than one
person, but even one person has lots of work to do to keep the house or
apartment or whatever going.  Less if it's an apartment -- no yard, no
major fix-it stuff, etc.  But it really would be great to have an
<assistant> taking care of grocery shopping, calling repair people, etc.
etc. etc.

        Yes.

        It would be abnormal if she did it for long periods of time,
or with lots of different objects.

I don't remember being a little girl except for when I had an "accident" in
the first grade.  I was afraid to ask to go to the bathroom for some
reason,   Maybe it all so awful that I blocked it all out.

But you're excessively uncompetitive. (I almost said 'aggressively
uncompetitive'.) I've been trying to get over 500,000 and have failed
miserably.

I have heard many times from many people whose opinions I respect that
driving in Boston is a major nightmare.  But I haven't seen that -- in
my admittedly very limited experiences of driving in Boston.  I've found
it like driving in pretty much any city, certainly easier than that day
in NYC when I was trying to find the Lincoln Tunnel and kept being
<zapped> by taxis.  My only bad memory of driving in Boston was in a
rainstorm when my windshield wipers died.

I'm trying to decide whether to give BP one last chance.  I had planned
on doing so last week, but it wasn't on.  Also, I think The Evil One is
going to be talking on BET at 7.  I might want to listen to that.

One thing that mightily annoys me in media discussions of the TL case is
that they say things about how he had grown up in Mississippi in the
segregation days and might not know any better or whatever.  That pisses
me off because it suggests that any white Mississippian of his
generation would be like him.  And that just ain't so.  He's two years
older than I am.  I know plenty of white Mississippians my age, his age,
and older who did not and do not think that any kind of racial
discrimation is ok.

I wonder if my mother ever tt'ed.  When I first got there this afternoon
and told her that Jeffrey and Linda would be arriving at any minute, she
said she needed to tt.  I  handed her her bedpan (which is always
besider her -- I didn't need to hand it to her), and she said it needed
cleaning.  So I went and cleaned it and gave it back to her.  Then they
arrived.  And then we decided I should go and get her ring out of the
bank box and let her wear it just for today.  So I left and did so.
Then I came back, and we all sat and talked for a good while.  I don't
think she ever tt'ed.

Ah so.  So it's the word choice you were objecting to.  I used that
phrase because it seemed quicker and easier than saying "people whose
spouses work to bring in the income."

As we well know, I have always been against The Evil One and would for
sure vote for even a yellow cat against him.  But I was willing to give
him the benefit of the doubt re his recent gaffe in the sense of not
thinking he was necessarily a racist for having said it.  It showed
stupidity, of course, since he should have realized that such a comment
could be misconstrued as racist.  But now I think he really is a racist,
or at least he really was one for many years.  And I am more and more

says -- suggesting that whites living in Mississippi in his generation

        Well, somebody's gotta be voting him in.

        Salon had a fun picture of him hanging with some white
supremicists.

Ahhh.  I will admit that I don't necessarily keep up with the
avant-garde terminology.  I still find myself saying "Computing Center"
for "ITS" at times.

Huh. I don't think I've had three years of any language. I had 2 years
of Latin, 2 of French, 1 of Spanish, 3 days of Cantonese, 2 years of
Chinese, none of Japanese... 2 quarters of Greek. 1 year of
Sanskrit. 1 year of Classical Chinese.

They can sometimes stumble upon a kind visa office.  I'm sure I've told
before about the major crisis after the Starkville wedding of my
US-Japanese friends as they were about to head to Japan for their Tokyo
wedding.  Both sets of parents attended both weddings, and the plan was
that they would all fly together -- the two sets of parents and the
couple, stopping at the US parents home in San Francisco on the way.
But shortly after the Starkville wedding, they discovered that Chi's
visa would not allow her to return to the US after the Tokyo wedding.
Major panic, needless to say, since the Tokyo wedding was all set up and
was to occur in something like a week.

Well, all six of them got onto the little plane here, as scheduled, but
Matt and Chi left them in Memphis, leaving the four of them to fly on to
SF, where the Japanese parents, who spoke no English, were the
houseguests of the US parents, who spoke no Japanese (but the stay
worked out fine nevertheless).  Meanwhile, Matt and Chi hied themselves
to the appropriate federal office in Memphis to see what they could do
about the visa situation.  They were on the plane to SF the next day,
with a green card in hand for Chi.  From what I've heard, that was
really pretty miraculous.  Green cards usually take ages to get issued.
But somebody in Memphis took pity on the newlyweds, and the green card
obviously solved the visa problem.

I talked to the guy who bought the house next door today. He's
planning to flip it--redo it and sell it for $180,000. The son came
over to get the dog and take it away to the country today. No one
knows about the cat. I gave it some fresh water today. In a little
while, I'll check for it and put out more tuna if I see it. I would
hope that the son took the cat, too, but these people are clearly
morally corrupt and undependable.

        These are very nice, but a little pricey.  I bet they come
down after Christmas, when I plan to do some shopping.  I
love the plaid dress.

        I had a flannel jumper from LE that I loved, but it
eventually fell apart.  I wish they'd offer more of them.

        Goodness, I hope it isn't for my looks.  I'd have to worry
about him in that case.  I'm a pretty conservative dresser.

Calling women (or men) who don't work outside the home names like
financial parasite is something out of the 1970s, imo. Sounds terribly
dated now. Definitely not something heard in the 1990s, for sure.

    Well, since he's a Republican he's obviously evil, and probably starts
out each day by crushing kittens underfoot.  No siree, no prejudice in the
Maynor manse.
    Natalie, he's a politician.  (And if I felt even moderately interested

It's not that it's important for recognition,
just that beating my highest score is a goal
and an incentive to play again.  It's more
fun if I have something in mind ito accomplish
instead of just playing to be finding words.

I thought those card things were of a later generation.  But Alyce is

I think I've mentioned before that I distinctly remember a tricycle
wreck when I was two, resulting in a cut lip, which resulted in my
having to give up the bottle.  The reason I think I've mentioned that
before is that I think I mentioned that I was also two when FDR died but
have no memory of it, even though my mother told me that she came out
into the backyard, where I was playing, and told me that it was
important and that I would study about it in school someday.

Re playing in the backyard, I think re our discussion of childhood
reading that I read less than many of you did.  I know I read less than
my mother did during her childhood.  But I always wanted to be outside
playing.  I considered reading something I could do on a rainy day, not
something I wanted to do when the outside world beckoned.

How much did he pay for it?  (That's NOMB, of course, but you mentioned
the price and  you had said earlier that it need $30,000 worth of work
done.  It would seem that he must have paid less than $150,000 for it.
And that surprises me in today's housing markets.)

Ha! The asking was $145,000, and one couple I talked to said they
would only have bid about $125,000 for it. The $145,000 price took
into account that it would take about $30,000 to make it habitable.

Well, he didn't; I heard him barking in the back when I went out to
water my gorgeous tomatoes.

I'm trying to buy a bottle of Greek wine from a wine maker
who is a distant cousin.  I found a distributor who is in
the same city as my brother (it's a Christmas gift for him),
and I'm crossing my fingers he really has this wine ... it
is supposed to be some of the best in Greece.  Of course,
it's easy to get this stuff all over Europe and in Canada,
but not the US.  My brother is a wine snob, and he doesn't
know this cousin exists.  It'll be a fun gift if I can pull
it off.

Our hill hasn't had steady power since Friday evening.  On the
intermittent times the power comes on for the rest of the hill, we get
only heat and tv - some power surge or something zapped part of our
circuit board or something, whatever that is & maybe; so even if when I go
home tonight our neighbors have power, we'll still be missing light,
sewage ejector pump, computer, phone.

I bathe using buckets and throw the water out the back door.  Etc.

I hate this and I WANT IT TO STOP

Poor Ann.  A sewage ejector pump sounds like a very critical need.  I've
never heard of one before.

So what is your "ha!" about?  Re bidding 125 on an asking of 145, that
would be just slightly above normal around here for a first bid.  For a
145 asking, I would judge 130 to be about right and would therefore bid
about 120, with the idea that we'd end up around 130.

Why wouldn't you believe it?  Would you instead have said "people whose
spouses work to bring in the income"?  Maybe so.  I realize I'm mutant.
Sure seems like a mouthful to me, though.

I kept expecting an unhappy ending because of your subject header.  But
it still sounds hopeful.  It does sound like the perfect gift.

? I don't think parties stay the same forever.  I would have been a

Fwiw, I don't think Thad Cochran crushes kittens.  Or even Dubya.

This is a valid complaint.  You are justified.  I know very well about
neighborhoods that vary in their electricity.  During ice storms my
former neighborhood was a checkerboard of off and on.  Don't know yet
about this neighborhood since my only winter here so far was very mild.
What, btw, is a sewage-ejector pump?  Sounds nasty.  And what does your
telephone have to do with electricity?

Think about how you might have been born a couple of hundred years
earlier and had to live your whole life this way.

Indeed.  Quite a few people have voted for him and probably will
continue to do so.  That does not make it any more <right>, imho, for it
to be suggested that all white Mississippians of his age think the way
he does.

My memory is odd.  I have lots of very detailed memories of some things
but only the vaguest memory if memory at all of other things.  And there
is no reason (or at least none that I can figure out) for why I have
certain long-ago memories so clearly lodged in my brain.  They aren't
particularly significant in many cases, but somehow they just got stuck
firmly in a brain cell.

I'm not sure what <core meaning> means.  I think of a parasite as
something that lives by hanging onto a life-giving entity.  In the case
of finances, which is what we were talking about, it means to me a
symbiotic relationship that involves one of a pair sucking financial
sustenance from the other of a pair.  Is that not what we were talking
about?

Thanks, Alyce!  I loved dragging those eyeballs around!  Fwiw, I don't
care whether the FBI knows where I click.  I'd much rather the FBI know
it than for merchants/spammers to know it.  The FBI will presumably not
spam me.

The secret, I think, is to always take a look at the board after each
play. When you see an unsavory set of letters in the three rows at left
or right that you know will cause you trouble (like A I A I U or K Z X J
W, make some simple word down further or even in the middle rows, not
worrying about the score, just to get the bad letters to move. I did
that assiduously in this 550,000 game, and it really paid off.

There is nothing symbiotic about a one-way relationship.

"Today's housing markets". This house is in no way representation of

But I heard that 87% of those who voted in Mississippi when Strom ran
voted for him. How can this be? Is it that people against segregation
did not vote? Or what? This is not meant to be an argument--I have been

I didn't know that he failed to go but wouldn't think it necessarily
odd.  Iow, I see that as not a particularly relevant fact in his
behavior.  James Meredith, btw, has turned into something of a flake.
I'm very glad he did what he did in entering Ole Miss, of course, and am
very happy that the Ole Miss students I knew at that time were
supportive of him (a minority, to be sure -- Ole Miss has never been
exactly a mecca of the liberal), but his life since then has been rather
<odd>, imho.

I found it interesting that he failed to go to the ceremony at Ole Miss
in October commemorating the 40th anniversary of the end of segregation
and the admission of James Meredith (who was there).

I have no idea what was in the heads of 87% of the voters when I was
five years old.  Trent was six or seven at that time.  I doubt that he
knows much about them either.  I do know some people of voting age at
that time who did not think racial discrimination was ok, but I really
don't know all that many people who were voting in Mississippi in '48.

They have the powers to take all your stuff if they suspect you of

buying it is going to redo it and sell it for $180,000.

Hmm.  How can my reply to Bethany have prompted a "too much information"

world.

In retrospect, he probably wishes he had gone. It would have helped him

LEON!!!!! I love Leon!!! I miss him terribly. Is Bart Mathias still
around? He must have retired, I guess. I love him, too.

That's funny, I was thinking about Leon a little while ago. (I think of
him when I eat Greek olives, too.)

What's new? How is Sally? Is Petra still in Santa Cruz? I guess Leon
got tenure?

I hardly remember ... but I hope I had the strength to put an end
to a crush like that if my teacher thought it was because of her
clothes.

Bart retired several years ago. I used to see him on campus
occasionally, but I haven't recently. I don't know whether he's still
around or not.

Sally is still freelancing, but apparently she has some real health
problems. He said she works at it about half time. I would guess he
must have gotten tenure. Otherwise, he wouldn't still be around.

It wasn't much of a conversation. As I said, I hadn't met him before.
I only knew it was him because he was bearing an envelope with his
name in the return-address position. Uncharacteristic as it was, I
introduced myself--as an acquaintance of Sally's and of his old
friend Karen Kay's.

Oh, that life is wonderful. And of course it's your business.
Only people who have done something wrong say "none of your

My friend Paul's phone has been out of order for at least a day --
when you call it, you get a crossed wire to some poor woman who is
sounding increasingly frustrated.

Paul is in one of his depressive periods and this is Not A Good Thing.

When you call PacBell repair to report the problem, you go through at
least four levels of voice mail hell... at the end of which you're
told that you're not allowed to report problems on someone else's
line, and you should have the line owner place the call himself. How
the hell are you supposed to tell the line owner to place the call
when his fucking phone is broken?

I'm in the mood to host a bit of a do on New Year's Eve -- nothing
too twisted, just friends, hors d'oeuvres and beverages. Let me know
if you'd like to receive an invitation.

Hmmm.  I clone with Paul on this one, but I am definitely not
excessively uncompetitive.  I wonder what's going on here with
me.  Also, I have stopped playing the game, mostly.

Subject: Damnable game!  Grrr!
Sender: owner-words-l@LISTSERV.UGA.EDU

Hello folks,

   although I don't read words-l regularly any more, I do have an account
that collects words-l mail and I scan it a couple of times a year to see
if anyone said anything interesting while I was gone...   well, I saw
the interest in this word game y'all are playing and as you know word
games are a special interest of mine, so I went to the page and gave it
a try...

two hours later, I had a score of around 200,000 on level 8,and felt rather
smug for a beginner, when my portable ran out of battery power and shut down.

Unlike every other time it has shut down, where it usually hibernates,
this time it did a real shutdown.  When I restarted, the game was gone,
and so was the most recent "print screen" saved screenshot that I'd
taken for proof of my first game score.

But that was minor in comparison to... my PC was completely screwed,
half the system utilities stopped working, and it has taken me another
three hours to rebuild my system.  I've just finished a few minutes ago
arounund 5am.  I can't help but suspect that this damned game is to blame,
because I've lost power *many* times before and it's always slept/reawakened
cleanly.

I don't have the patience to play such a tedious game again.  It's not
very challenging except possibly as an endurance test.  Meanwhile, having
played it once, I've picked up enough of it to know how to write a program
to solve it, so I will be putting the code up on my web page tomorrow
as soon as I've finished writing it.  It's basically the same as boggle,
algorithmically speaking.

It's very well coded and looks great, but like so many modern games, the
gameplay sucks.  They need to speed it up.  Maybe put in a time limit per
play, and restrict the number of plays.  Scrabble and Boggle both work
on a timer, it's not an alien concept for word gamers.

regards

G

        No, just making sure.  I know the teacher-crush thing is

I suspect a random list of titles would have the same effect.

I'm sure he's thought of all kinds of things he wishes he had done or
not done.  Mainly I bet he wishes he had been out of town or sick on the
day of Strom's bday party.

What a tempting thought.  But I don't need to be going anywhere this
particular year.  One of these years, though, I'm going to show up on
your doorstep at a party time.

That's because it's supposed to be Homer rather than Caesar.  What's
weird, though, is that I always say Caesar, somebody usually points out
that I meant Homer, I acknowledge that truth, and then I forget and say
Caesar again the next time.  I've been doing that for years and can't
seem to stop it.

A cold winter day in Honolulu in 1980. This was for a pedagogical methods
class, and Dave Ashworth (who I know is still around, Mem, he shows up
in various places) used the method involving colored sticks. I can't
remember the name of the method any more, but it was a great class. We
all bonded.

There's something in this game that reminds me of
our world situation.  That reminds me also of our
stock market.  That reminds me of the approaching
Xmas holiday.

Just when you think you're doing well and have
everything in place and maybe you're going to make
it, you look up and see burning tiles have appeared
out of nowhere, crept in around the edges, dropped
full speed and gathered friends along the way.

We read Anabasis in my introductory Classical Greek course, and then I read some of Xenophon's Socrates dialogies later. And this reminds me of the time when the sailing boat my brother owns with a friend crashed with another and they filled in the forms for insurance claims: the boat "Panta rhei" had hit the "Thalatta".

I'd love to receive an invitation but we'll still be in sunny Southern

Yes, so do I.  So do we all, I'm sure.
It's amazing to discover that something
like bzdk is a word.  (Well, maybe not . .
that was an exaggeration).

Well, then, another view.  Just when  you're
surrounded and the heat is growing so intense
you're likely to panic, you don't.  You reverse
your thinking, make a bold plan, see through
the maze to a startling new combination that
uses every red letter and two sparkling gold
ones as well.

I think s-e pumps may also be known as sump pumps?  Ours pumps sewage up
into the public sewage pipes or channels or whatever.

I guess digital phones if that's what you call them need elecity.

Jeez.  Think again.  Parasitic was chosen as a metaphor precisely because
it implies one way.

OOps Natalie may disclaim chosen for this reason.  Then I'll say parasitic
is nastily effective as a metaphor because . . .

This reminds me of long long ago in Ann Arbor when the radicalesbians were
writing stuff like parasitic women fuck off, on the sidewalks.  I took it
as a message from god and enrolled in ed school to get my teaching
certificate.

No good came from that, I should've thought it over more carefully.

I think Karen was in askance mode.  TMI is usually used when somebody
reveals too much personal information.  I will give you an example:

We have two toilets.  Currently we are shitting in the downstairs one
and pissing in the upstairs one.  [heh heh I thought of describing them
but you get the idea]

If he had enough dough to have a cell phone, he wouldn't be quite so
depressed... and he has a pharmacopia to put mine to shame. But the
smile is a good idea.

In the Anabasis most of the soldiers would prbably have cried "Thalassa" rather than "Thalatta" since the '-tt-' here is Attic and would not be used by Ionian or Dorian speakers. But Xenophon was from Athens.

I find it interesting that Ken, who you described previously as being almost
debilitatingly shy (but whom visiting wordslers admittedly found quietly
charming), would be in such an extroverted profession.

One of my favorite brick-and-mortar bookstore benefits is when the
store allows its staff to write shelf talkers about books they
particularly enjoyed. I've picked up a lot of new books and authors
that way -- my favorite place is A Clean Well Lighted Place on Van
Ness Ave.

I keep an "old-fashioned" phone on hand, which I can slip into a jack in
case of power failure. I realized that I have three cordless phones, all
of which die without electricity. I don't think that everyone thinks of
this, but it is as necessary to have a traditional phone on hand as
batteries and candles.

I thought sump pumps were things people in YankeeLand had in basements

A fair number of actors, IME, are rather shy people when they're not

exception rather than the rule.

Of course it's a metaphor, and of course it was chosen because it means
one-way.  It was not a metaphor for the whole relationship.  It was a
metaphor for that single aspect of the relationship and was clearly
labeled as such -- the word "financial" was somewhere in my phrasing of
it.  I neither said nor implied anything about a "one-way relationship."

My choice of the metaphor had nothing to do with radicalesbians'
sidewalk graffiti.

Yes, well, he is pretty much of an extrovert when he is not among people
he knows. I was pleasantly surprised that he was gracious when you were
here. More often he went upstairs and hid out when people visited, even
the cleaning lady who he knows well.

NEI!  More details, please.  Your use of "currently" suggests that this
has not always been the practice.  What led you to change?

I'm reminded of the woman who called up to ask if The Compleat
Spanker would teach her how to spank her kids, or if it was about
"that kinky stuff." I assured her it was about "that kinky stuff,"
and that was the end of that conversation (although I felt creeped
out for the rest of the day).

There are many cases like that.  I've known some personally (not just re
acting but also re things like teaching -- they're different people in
front of a class -- not shy at all -- I'm not sure about one-on-one with
students, though), and I've read of some well-known actors who are said
to be extremely shy in <real life>.  Can't think who now.  It's sort of
like the stuttering thing.  Didn't we talk about that here a while back
-- people who stutter off-stage but don't on-stage?

James Earl Jones is one, although I heard him stutter a bit the one
time I saw him onstage.

Robin Williams is apparently very quiet and low-key in person -- I'm
an RW2 a couple of times over; he used to be pretty active in the
gaming community here in SF (I'm not a gamer but they seem to
surround me wherever I go).

I think my public persona and private persona are rather different. I
was taking one of those dumb on-line personality tests the other day
and was having trouble answering it because I'm publicly very
extroverted, gregarious and confident, and privately a bit withdrawn
and quiet.

So the contract agent I've been dealing with (Daphene) has found me
another job. The last company freaked at the cost and decided to do it
themselves. This company is a much better match for me personally, and
we have already bonded. I like the stuff they do and the people in the
company. (I'd take a full-time job there in a heartbeat.)

Daphene is sending over a proposal this afternoon. This will keep me
busy through mid-February, with the possibility of more beyond that.
So please direct all your good thought in this direction. TYVM.

Scarves are nice too, although they can be dangerous if <struggling>
is involved (ever tried to pick apart a knot in silk that's been
pulled tight?). I saw an absolutely gorgeous bondage scene once --
with both participants in cowboy/cowgirl drag -- that included
nothing but a basket of bandannas.

True, but they don't just slurp--they push the water to another place,
so Ann's sewage is being guided elsewhere by the same principle.

still running over 100 temp.  I hate being sick; it's all

This seems like a good task for wordslers.

Our library puts an ad in the med school year book every year,
"Congratulations class of 2003" etc. Last year I included the Einstein
quote, "The important thing is not to stop questioning."

I am now soliciting suggestions for this year's quote.

Yes, this was at your house, the one you were renting. Maybe this was
a birthday party? I don't remember. Sharon and Boo were both
there. Vicki lives in the Santa Cruz mountains--I'm sure you know her.

Are we using "introvert" in its real psychological sense?  If so, I
would think many actors would be extroverted rather than introverted --
getting their sense of self-worth from other people more than from
within themselves.  Then again, that is perhaps a totally false
assumption about actors, now that I think about it.  Obviously what
other people think is important in their profession, but that doesn't
mean it's how they judge themselves.

I'm suddenly wondering about plumbing -- as in what makes my toilets
flush.  I understand what makes them literally flush -- what I'm
wondering about is what makes the stuff that goes throught the whole in
the bottom of the toilet keep on going to its destination.  Pipes can't
possibly be downhill all the way to wherever the stuff goes.  And why
exactly do you have an electric sewage-ejector pump?  Are they common?
I've never heard of one until now and have never noticed details of that
kind mentioned in house ads.

Extroversion does not necessarily mean gregarious or confident.  Nor
does introversion mean shy or quiet.

It's a wonderful store -- it and Booksmith in the Haight are my two
favorite SF bookstores. (I have to get back over to Booksmith to pick
up one of those signed Clive Barkers tomorrow.)

Oh yes. I was <ahem> busy at the time, but I remember being told about it.

If you're going to get tied up by anybody, getting tied up by Vicki

Natalie,

This is from somewhere on the web, "the ejector pump is in a pit like your
sump pump except it would have the basement toilet, tub, lav, and washer
hooked up to it. It is sealed with a vent pipe to pump sewage and is a
heavier duty pump to be able to handle the solids that come from a toilet.
Sewage ejector pumps are required when your sewer line going out of the
house to your city sewer line is above the floor level of the basement."

<nod> Miles is a gregarious introvert, who is very poised and
friendly but who keeps his private processes turned inward -- what he
seems to love most about acting is its collegiality, the sense of
working together with a close team toward a common goal (the same
thing I loved most about advertising -- "Walk the Dog" sent me into a
fit of nostalgia for that feeling, as does "West Wing"). Ben is a shy
extrovert, who doesn't do well socially but who needs to talk his
processes through with other people. It makes for an interesting
combo.

Hm. I thought the real psychological sense was how you work things
out, whether you work them out with other people or alone.

I am an extrovert: the first thing I do when I have a problem is phone
someone up and ask them to help me think about it. Introverts work on
it themselves first.

No, I think teal is definitely your color ;)

Although one of my favorite photos in "The Seductive Art of Japanese
Bondage" uses hot pink rope, and looks terrific. (I'd never dream of
arguing with Midori's visual sense on something like that -- I'm
good, but she's better.)

That strikes me as a part of what I thought "extrovert" meant -- needing
other people's opinions to help <define> yourself, etc.  But I should
add that my knowledge of psych terminology is far from expert level.

Thanks.  That makes sense.  But I'm still wondering about the whole
layout.  Since my current house is on a hill, presumably my pipes go
downhill to join the city pipes.  After that is it a matter of pushing
and shoving?  Like the stuff gets to the central treatment point or
whatever it's called by being pushed along by other stuff coming through
the pipe?  And what about a house that isn't on a hill.  My previous lot
was pretty much flat in relation to the street.  Do pipes still go
downward, joining city pipes that are pretty far down?  And what about
houses below street level?  One sort of across the street from me is.

You make extroverts sound like they are lacking something. They
aren't. It's just that they choose a different process to gain
information than introverts do.

I think that's my major complaint re:borders and immigration - the rules are quite
rigid, but the enforcement is very arbitrary.  It seems like it is an institutionalized
opportunity for bribery (whether it be cash or some form of ass-kissing).  Once you
set foot across the border or request permission to do so you are completely at the
mercy of some small-time official who might need a little ego boost that day.  Do I
sound bitter?

Lacking something?  I don't see where you're getting that.  If I had to
apply the idea of <lack> to one or the other, which I don't really think
is appropriate, I guess I'd deem introverts as the lackers.  But, as I
said, I don't really see lack as part of the picture.

And, as far as I can tell from what you and Janet have said on the

Or even share a name.  A doctor here years ago had the same name as the
funeral home.  In fact, I think his parents owned the funeral home,
though I'm not sure.  He left here after just a few years.

That is what I meant. Yes. Like he didn't know you all, so he was not
shy and hiding in his room. When he's in a movie, he doesn't know the
other people. Etc.

That is how I see Ken's case, but I never studied psychology.

No. He left Hollywood four years ago so as to be "near" his fiancee who
was in Montreal. He stayed with me, because, as it happened, he came
east exactly when I was getting out of the hospital, so he nursed me
back to life. When he was in the movies last (1998) he worked only as an
extra. I've seen him in some movies (Houdini and Wild Wild WEst are the
only ones I can name right now, but he was in many), but you had to know
to watch for him in certain scenes. He worked enough as an extra to get
credits that allowed him to join SAG, which he did last summer. So now,
although he will probably be a background person at least in the
beginning, he is one step up from being an extra, and if lucky will be
able to say lines. Extras (non-union) cannot do lines, not even sneeze.

Over Xmas when I'm in Texas with the whole
family I will maybe get to hear about the brush
with Robin W.  Also . . did I tell you this? . .
on his way home he set the plane down for a while
in Newfoundland and there met and visited with
and had pictures taken with the Prime Minister
of Canada.  Just a chance thing of some kind,
I guess.

There's nothing to congratulate me about yet. I've been in this very

I've probably remembered this here before (I don't remember if I have though) but

wondering.

Which part sounds kinky? The housemate part isn't at all kinky,
believe me. I'll talk more about this when it actually happens; it

That they need other people's opinions to help define themselves--that
they lack the wherewithal to do it themselves.

No, because 1) all it does is find all the words present, no more.
and 2) I wouldn't have a clue how to make a valid psychological profile.

Oh wait, no-one else does either.  Fair enough.  I know!  I'll use
wordnet to find the closest colour to the given word, then
sort the colours by frequency, and feed it in to the Luscher colour
test at http://www.supervert.com/shockwave/colortest/ (click on the
tiny text link that says Luscher color test.)  Should be as valid
as any of the results it gives :-)

The interesting thing about the word game is that finding the longest
words isn't sufficient to do well.  Even with a perfect word finder,
you really need to use strategy to line up bonuses and avoid pitfalls.
>From a programing point of view it's actually an interesting game,
once you get past the mechanics of just finding possible plays[*].  A
computer vs computer version would be worth doing.  Solo human play
however is on the same level as playing patience - intellectual masturbation.

*: Which is trivial: this is the entire algorithm:
  if ((x&1) == 0) {
    /* short row, up to two tall neighbours */
    if (x != 0) {
      search(x-1, y, l+1);
      search(x-1, y+1, l+1);
    }
    if (x != 6) {
      search(x+1, y, l+1);
      search(x+1, y+1, l+1);
    }
  } else {
    /* long row, always two neighbours */
    if (y != 0) {
      search(x-1, y-1, l+1);
      search(x+1, y-1, l+1);
    }
    if (y != 7) {
      search(x-1, y, l+1);
      search(x+1, y, l+1);
    }

        Yes, so do I.  So do we all, I'm sure.
        It's amazing to discover that something
        like bzdk is a word.  (Well, maybe not . .
        that was an exaggeration).

A very close approximation to the actual wordlist used is here:

I don't understand what it is she's bringing over.  What kind of
proposal?  I thought it was the work itself -- that you were to be
involved in editing some kind of complicated proposal between now and
February.

        I think s-e pumps may also be known as sump pumps?  Ours pumps sewage up
        into the public sewage pipes or channels or whatever.

Which reminds me, on a smaller scale ...

... is anyone up to helping me prepare an April Fool's prank for next April?

I came up with this 'invention' called the "Instinkerator" (for want of a
better name, though that may have to change before public release for
copyright reasons, and also so that no-one searching for it hits this page!)
which is basically just a garbage disposal unit attached to the bottom of
your toilet, which turns on when you flush.  I'm thinking about a web page
advertising it and a press release timed for "second quarter 2003" (which
when you think about it starts on April 1st...)

It will purport to be a "low flow" device to save water, but the underlying
message of the web site is that it will cure blocked drain problems for
those of us who are intimately familiar with Murgatroyd the Megaturd (who
I'm sure Judith remembers as an unwelcome visitor from Clambake...)

Of course it would be touted as a new invention; we wouldn't admit to
it being just a regular kitchen sink-style garbage disposal, but the
website would have lovely (qv) glossy photos of the unit attached to
a toilet which would make it obvious to anyone with a brain that is
was literally just a kitchen sink unit.

Which is where I need some help, because neither my plumbing skills nor
my Photoshop compositor skills are sufficient to produce a decent photo
of the Instinkerator in situ.

And it needs to be done soonish to get the back story in place and have
it listed in google etc so that come press release day, if anyone is
sharp enough to bother checking it out on the web, they'll find plenty
of evidence to back it up.  Just like our toilet really.

G, stirring shit again.

You seem to assume that it's somehow <better> for one to do it alone.  I
don't see involving people in your life as being a lack.

Then you would not have guessed correctly.
