Thanks to a back-channel communication, I know now that not only do I need to call them but that she has to return the whole December payment. Iow, you should plan on dying at the beginning of a month, not at the end. No pro-rating is involved. If you die at 12:01 a.m. on Jan. 1, you get the full December check; if you die at 12:00 on Dec. 31, you have to return the whole December check. One thing I've been thinking about since getting the url with the info from the is how many people really know what they're supposed to do. Not everybody has Words-L to ask. And not everybody has a computer with a net connection and could google for the info. I bet that my not calling until tomorrow is not going to be a record-breaking for late calling. (I may try tonight on the chance that the ss people are 24-hr people.

Trying to call tomorrow will be a I did try, but I was so maxed out with telephone menus (you wouldn't believe how many of them I've waded through today) that I gave up after about the second level of the menu. I don't think it was going anywhere -- as in I think no real person was likely to answer at any point. Another reason I hung up was that one of the menu items was for getting a phone number for your local ss office. A light-bulb went on in my head then, illuminating the thought that I should wait and call the local office. They were very helpful to me earlier. I'd rather deal with them than with some national menu. If it has to be next week, which it almost certainly will have to be, that's ok. As conscientious as I am about rule-following and promptness -- and I am big-time on both of those, I will say that in a case like this that my waiting until Monday really can't be so bad.

Barbara Ann, my only sibling, was 2 1/2 yrs younger than me. She died of polio in the summer of 1950. It was very hard on all of us.

She gradually turned into a different person in the past couple of years. Not as in those personality changes that come with diseases like Alzheimers, when formerly gentle people suddenly become mean, but just a gradual loss of interest in life, of comprehension of many things, etc. I wish the nursing home staff (who are truly wonderful people, I should add) had known her when she was her former self.

Christmas in Seattle was 40 degrees of driving rain/drizzle, with steady 30mph winds. Not a pretty sight. Work is pretty intense ... we do a whole lot more stuff here than we ever did at that near-equivalent organization in NH. Lots of fun, but it can get too heavy (like right now). And a good bit of travel coming up, for work (Baltimore in January, Orlando in February), for avocation (that SFO trip is a SABR Board meeting), and for academic celebration (late March). The last is a "Festschrift" for the chair of my department at Pitt, who's retiring after 30 years at the helm. He was also my dissertation advisor. I was already planning to attend the event, but I recently received a message from the organizers asking me(!) to give a short talk about his work in cardiovascular epidemiology. Since Lew Kuller is one of the world's giants of CVD epi, it's a daunting responsibility to somehow distill that down to 10-15 minutes. I don't quite understand why they asked lil ole me to do this, since he's trained a whole lot of well- regarded cardiovascular epidemiologists who are still in the field, but I'll give it my best shot. neal, now packing up stuff to work on that RFP at home...

But I was concerned that the info on the web page said something about notifying the bank to return the money. (Physical checks don't arrive -- the money is automatically deposited into her checking account.) The whole deal sounds pretty complicated -- asking the bank to send back money, etc. There's also the matter of her bank account. Her means are not so great as to cavalierly say "just don't cash the next two checks." Bills will continue to arrive (one of which will be a whopper -- the cost of even simple grave-side services is truly amazing). So there are practical reasons to think about these matters, even though I do consider them minor in some ways. I also continue to wonder about how people of lesser general awareness and lesser means handle these situations. Ok, so I'm mutant -- iow, I should not assume that I have "general awareness." But I do think I have more awareness of some kinds of things than some people do.

If her benefits end as of December 1st, the next two checks are out of consideration regardless of what bills will continue to arrive. FWIW, our experience with various dead relatives was similar to Adam's. If I remember correctly, SS deposited a couple of additional checks into Anne's account, then sucked them back out again -- we just had to leave the account open for longer than we would have liked (other things were being direct deposited as well -- dividend checks, etc.). I think her funeral came to nearly $8,000, but she had arranged everything she wanted and signed over a $10,000 insurance policy to the funeral home to cover it -- we just got the "change" when all was said and done.

Social security, pensions, etc., it all gets figured out eventually. One doesn't have to get every loose end tied up within 24 hours of death. It took us months to get everything cleared up when Anne died, and we had been handling her affairs for awhile. Even now we occasionally get a stray dividend check from stocks sold two years ago. Relax. It's not that big a deal. People die all the time and somehow their affairs are taken care of. Don't make it so hard on yourself.

But I do still wonder about the "one just handles them" (oops -- I think I cut off that part -- it was at the beginning of your paragraph -- one just handles these matters). I can in fact manage to pay the approximately $10,000 for the funeral costs, but I'm not sure that everybody who faces this kind of situation can.

The menus used to add something about "if you're using a rotary phone, stay on the line," but I think most have dropped that now. I hate phone menus. I remember once calling the MSU Telecomm office for some reason and getting so lost in an endless maze of menus that I finally hung up and walked downstairs to do whatever I was trying to do ftf. I think I've mentioned before that all those Telecomm people are my friends since their offices are near the coke machine in the basement of my building. -- -- Natalie (natalie@maynor.net) From owner-words-l@LISTSERV.UGA.EDU Fri Dec 27 05:52:27 2002 Return-Path: Received: from mailgw.cc.uga.edu (mailgw.cc.uga.edu [128.192.1.101]) by gtoal.com (8.12.6/8.11.6/SuSE Linux 0.5) with ESMTP id gBRBqROu011799 for ; Fri, 27 Dec 2002 05:52:27 -0600 Received: from listserv.cc.uga.edu (128.192.1.75) by mailgw.cc.uga.edu (LSMTP for Windows NT v1.1b) with SMTP id <0.0420CB07@mailgw.cc.uga.edu>; Fri, 27 Dec 2002 6:47:10 -0500 Received: from LISTSERV.UGA.EDU by LISTSERV.UGA.EDU (LISTSERV-TCP/IP release 1.8d) with spool id 3460369 for WORDS-L@LISTSERV.UGA.EDU; Fri, 27 Dec 2002 06:47:10 -0500 Received: from imf17bis.bellsouth.net (mail317.mail.bellsouth.net [205.152.58.177]) by listserv.cc.uga.edu (8.11.6/8.11.6) with ESMTP id gBRBlA706265 for ; Fri, 27 Dec 2002 06:47:10 -0500 Received: from maynor.net ([66.156.161.240]) by imf17bis.bellsouth.net (InterMail vM.5.01.04.19 201-253-122-122-119-20020516) with ESMTP id <20021227114858.MNWP1219.imf17bis.bellsouth.net@maynor.net> for ; Fri, 27 Dec 2002 06:48:58 -0500 Message-ID: <3E0C3DB9.10A1922F@maynor.net> Date: Fri, 27 Dec 2002 05:47:05 -0600 From: Natalie Maynor X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.79 [en] (Windows NT 5.0; U) X-Accept-Language: en MIME-Version: 1.0 To: English Language Discussion Group Subject: Re: Happy Birthday, T-Bone References: <4.2.2.20021226185608.00a5fc90@uclink.berkeley.edu> <3E0BC288.91AEFA32@maynor.net> <20021227045958.GB9148@pobox.com> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-words-l@LISTSERV.UGA.EDU Status: RO Tushar Samant wrote: > > Thank you, all.

Are you under the I thought pretty much everybody except school-related people were back at work the day after xmas. Wait -- I take that back. Spencer's vet's office was closed Dec. 25-26 (but with the home phone of one of the vets for emergencies). I know that because I tried to call the office yesterday morning and got a recording saying that. The reason I called was that Furrbabies is full to the brim and overflowing, so I decided that maybe I could take Spencer to his vet when I leave this morning and combine teeth-cleaning with staying there while I'm gone. I don't like the idea of boarding at a vet since I don't think the dogs get the personal attention and play time there that they do at Furrbabies. In fact, I'm sure they don't. That's why I thought about the teeth-cleaning -- which would mean he would be asleep and then groggy for part of the time, meaning he wouldn't be as bored. It's still not totally out of the question since they open at 7:30 this morning. I could call then and see about dropping him off there at 8:00. Otoh, I have the feeling they also might be full re boarders. I don't know about other places, but around here there are lots and lots and lots of people out of town at this time of year. So I've decided to leave Spencer at home. He seemed to do fine when I left him for about 24 hours in October, and this will be not all that much longer. I'll leave around 8:00 this morning and will return late tomorrow afternoon. I've already got every large bowl and pan I own sitting in the kitchen to be filled with food and water (not mixed in the same bowl). And I will tell him that his duty is to guard the house from burglars, who are in fact rampant at this time of year since so many people are out of town. -- -- Natalie (natalie@maynor.net) From owner-words-l@LISTSERV.UGA.EDU Fri Dec 27 06:04:26 2002 Return-Path: Received: from malibu.cc.uga.edu (malibu.cc.uga.edu [128.192.1.103]) by gtoal.com (8.12.6/8.11.6/SuSE Linux 0.5) with ESMTP id gBRC4QOu011869 for ; Fri, 27 Dec 2002 06:04:26 -0600 Received: from listserv.cc.uga.edu (128.192.1.75) by malibu.cc.uga.edu (LSMTP for Windows NT v1.1b) with SMTP id <0.0057EC27@malibu.cc.uga.edu>; Fri, 27 Dec 2002 6:59:09 -0500 Received: from LISTSERV.UGA.EDU by LISTSERV.UGA.EDU (LISTSERV-TCP/IP release 1.8d) with spool id 3460484 for WORDS-L@LISTSERV.UGA.EDU; Fri, 27 Dec 2002 06:59:09 -0500 Received: from flex.com (flex.com [206.126.0.13]) by listserv.cc.uga.edu (8.11.6/8.11.6) with ESMTP id gBRBx8706771 for ; Fri, 27 Dec 2002 06:59:08 -0500 Received: from kiawe (adsl-1303.flex.com [206.126.6.22]) by flex.com (8.11.6/8.11.0) with ESMTP id gBRBwqA96394 for ; Fri, 27 Dec 2002 01:58:52 -1000 (HST) From: "Michael E.

I noticed that was the number listed in the cost info the nice funeral man e-mailed me (because I had asked him for a rough estimate so that I could start planning -- he was not the one to introduce the topic of cost).

I'm almost sure I've told the story before about the tyrannical secretary at my high school. When somebody left school early -- as in before the 3:15 p.m. end of the school day -- it was necessary to get a pink dismissal slip.

People either get a loan or do something less expensive. For example, Kevin and I plan to be cremated at the discount place in the City that charges about $500 right now. A memorial service at St. B. wouldn't cost anything significant on top of that. Most of the people in our families who have died planned their funerals ahead and made sure the money was put away for it -- except for my pappou, who died more suddenly and wasn't much for planning ahead in life in general. I think my dad got a small loan from his union to pay for Papa's funeral because Papa died with maybe $200 to his name. My dad cremated his sister, and that didn't cost too much -- and he had a very, very good time telling my brother he had spilled some of the ashes on the seat of my brother's car -- he said that alone was worth the cost. In any case, I bet if you asked your friendly funeral director, he would tell you that you can pay for the funeral in installments. -- Rita Rouvalis Chapman rouvalis@swbell.net, rita@etext.org http://www.etext.org/~rita From owner-words-l@LISTSERV.UGA.EDU Fri Dec 27 08:48:28 2002 Return-Path: Received: from mailgw.cc.uga.edu (mailgw.cc.uga.edu [128.192.1.101]) by gtoal.com (8.12.6/8.11.6/SuSE Linux 0.5) with ESMTP id gBREmROu012606 for ; Fri, 27 Dec 2002 08:48:27 -0600 Received: from listserv.cc.uga.edu (128.192.1.75) by mailgw.cc.uga.edu (LSMTP for Windows NT v1.1b) with SMTP id <0.0420CEF6@mailgw.cc.uga.edu>; Fri, 27 Dec 2002 9:43:10 -0500 Received: from LISTSERV.UGA.EDU by LISTSERV.UGA.EDU (LISTSERV-TCP/IP release 1.8d) with spool id 3463636 for WORDS-L@LISTSERV.UGA.EDU; Fri, 27 Dec 2002 09:43:09 -0500 Received: from uclink4.berkeley.edu (uclink4.Berkeley.EDU [128.32.25.39]) by listserv.cc.uga.edu (8.11.6/8.11.6) with ESMTP id gBREh9700965 for ; Fri, 27 Dec 2002 09:43:09 -0500 Received: from c35206-d (12-232-204-56.client.attbi.com [12.232.204.56]) by uclink4.berkeley.edu (8.12.3/8.12.3) with ESMTP id gBREh8iI356341; Fri, 27 Dec 2002 06:43:08 -0800 (PST) Message-Id: <4.2.2.20021227064525.00a5fab0@uclink.berkeley.edu> X-Sender: bclark@uclink.berkeley.edu X-Mailer: QUALCOMM Windows Eudora Pro Version 4.2.2 Date: Fri, 27 Dec 2002 06:46:21 -0800 To: English Language Discussion Group , WORDS-L@LISTSERV.UGA.EDU From: Betty Subject: Re: Happy Birthday, T-Bone In-Reply-To: Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii"; format=flowed Sender: owner-words-l@LISTSERV.UGA.EDU Status: RO At 09:35 AM 12/27/2002 +0000, Rashmi Murthy wrote: >Tushar: > >>Thank you, all.

Sometimes you sound like an old fart now, > T-Bone, and I worry about you. He's starting to remind me of this guy from Bombay I knew in college -- a graduate student in the computer science department. He was about 35 or so, very nice, but during the winter, late at night, he would turn the heat in the Wannalancit computer lab up to the maximum so that it was downright steamy down there. Then he would pad around the filthy linoleum floor in his bare feet with a big smile on his face while we all perspired at the VT220 terminals. He was bald, and in possession of a FATASS, too.

How is everyone? We were down in the Philly area for Christmas. Bruce and I have a Christmas Day tradition now of slipping away from the family for a couple of hours and going to see a movie (this year: "Adaptation"). When we went in to the theater, it was raining very very hard. On our way out, we were faced with blizzard conditions. We turned on the car radio, tuned to 880, and heard immediately that Westchester was in the midst of a "white-out" situation. "Holiday travel not advised. Visit grandma tomorrow." We had planned to head home after dinner (30 hours being about my outer limit of sanity with my family), but decided it was prudent to stay another night, and accept the consequences. Drove home yesterday, the roads were horrible -- lots of plowers in holiday, I suppose. Our driveway wasn't plowed when we arrived home, and under nearly a foot of snow. And not an hour after we arrived home to our snowy wonderland, we lost all power. Lit candles, drank some wine, heated tortilla soup on the grill, visited with the neighbors, and made the best of it. The power came back before we went to sleep.

We did get the afternoon of the 24th off - most of us, others had to stay to mind the shop in case. My bus to work (I ferry only in the evening commute) has been so wonderfully empty today and yesterday. I sit in a spot in the back that has a panoramic view when nobody else is sitting at all near me. And the bus driver drives like a maniac in a roadster. So today especially it was a thrilling ride: we drove across the GG bridge under pink and stormy skies, with waves crashing on the rocks below; then we swooped down into the Marina district with my moving sweeping view of the Bay and the headlands north of it. I felt like a queen. Then we moseyed into the less beautiful districts and I turned into a pumpkin as I got off at Mission and First.

No. I haven't had bacala since I went to my cousin's 10+ year's ago. It wasn't in stew, it was just there, on a plate, it was the one thing I ignored. No one noticed though. Seems no one notices much, unless of course you take too much of something popular. It was that year my cousin Andrew announced he was eating two lobsters (who ones, not tails like we did this year). The second was his wife's and since she didn't like lobster it was rightfully his. His mother, who paid for the whole dinner, got a little nervous when my father and I started yelling. We merely suggest he not be such a pig and should ask if his mother wanted it.

The bottom layer is completely separate space, and the phone there is even on it's own line, and the top layer has an inside and an outside. It's no big deal to talk up and down one set of stairs, but that's about it. We've got a DECT (Digital European Cordless Telecommunications) phone set on each line. They're pretty cool. The base stations can talk with each other, so we can have any of the phones on either line, and the phones can call each other. Outside they have a range of 300-500 meters. They're a bit clunky for carrying around, but they're quite nice for having long conversations on, unlike my mobile. They operate in the same 2.4 GHz band as the 802.11b wifi stuff, but so far we haven't suffered any interference. Then again, we're not on the phone all that much. Too, they're pretty nice phones, in that the phone book in them works like that in my mobile, with a pretty easy interface for adding people's names and numbers, and then using the phone book to call them. We haven't lost the memory in any of the phones yet (and you can synch them up with each other - or each handset can have it's own set of numbers), but there's no way to download/backup what's in the phones. You can use the handsets like speakerphones too, but then only one of you can talk at a time.

I wasn't going to post this now because it's 12:30, and I'm trying not to catch lung crud, so I need my sleep, but I don't want to forget the details of this frabjous day. I shall draw a veil over the morning with my sibs. Tushar phoned me when I was in the Burberry Store, and we agreed to meet at The Billy Goat Tavern, which is the "Cheeseburge! Cheeseburger! Coke! No Pepsi!" of SNL fame. I saw this not too long ago on TV, with John Belushi, Dan Akroyd, and Bill Murray, and I can understand why they did this. This place is a parody of itself, in a rather unconscious way. Anyway, they really do talk just like the skit. And the food is quite good. I had all my sibs watching the door for a bald Indian--and one of them spotted him immediately. So he came over and disrobed, and I introduced him around and he sat with us for a few minutes, and then we started talking about what to do till my train left at 6:10pm. He quickly outlined a plan that had a few time constraints, so I jumped up and ditched my sibs without a 2nd thought. We walked over to a place that has jazz from 12-2:30, and listened to the last 45 minutes or so. I was trying to figure out what to drink, and thought, "Aha! I'm in a bar, I'll drink a Cosmopolitan!" The bartender asked me if I was sure, which made me hesitate, but I figured even if I got drunk and passed out that Tushar would get me to the train station. So that's how I lost my Cosmopolitan Virginity. The drink was VERY strong and the music sounded better and better and Tushar started looking better and better, and oh, well, it was VERY strong. So we listened to the music and talked about What To Do Next. We decided to go visit Tushar's neighborhood, and I'm very glad I did. The man knows how to pick a neighborhood. There's block after block of interesting shops (including an old-fashioned hardware store) with no duplication. Extremely unpretentious. (With the exception of the new yuppie steak place whose name escapes me--that sticks out like a sore thumb.) You name it, his neighborhood has it. So since I was looped and having trouble walking, we stopped at a coffee shop and had amazingly strong coffee and tea with a chocolate mousse cake. So we sat there for a long time and drank and talked and ate and drank and talked. It was a lot of fun, and the conversation did not flag. So we walked down the street (I think we were heading toward the El at that point), and we walked past one bar, and then we got to another and Tushar insisted we needed to stop and sample some Belgian beer. The beer list is truly impressive. They have--dammit, I forgot the name. Uh... Gloog? A Swedish spiced wine that used to only be made in Tushar's neighborhood. Yes, our sweet Tush lives in A SWEDISH NEIGHBORHOOD!!!!! Who knew. Anyway, drank some of that and admired the bar, which is lovely. Lots of wood, jazz on the jukebox, and NO TV. I like the guy that owns the bar. And eventually we had to leave so I could catch my train, which I did, and which was on time. As usual, the Kay Christmas Trip went flawlessly. I really like Tushar's neighborhood a lot. It's quite exceptional, as city neighborhoods go. I don't want to own a house there, but I suspect that if I lived in the same city, I'd be visiting often. Ah, well. Next year in Chicago...

I was 11 and my brother was 15 when an event occurred that destroyed our relationship, but I found it devastating. Up to that point, people thought we were twins, and we spent a lot of time together. IOW, I don't think it's inevitable that a 13 year old and an 11 year old aren't close. Actually, my nephews are 12 and 15, and they are also peas in a pod. It just depends on the people and the relationship. I don't think age has much to do with it.

You This reminds me. Are there cell phones where you can do this? I think it's barbaric to have to re-type in everything every time. And my current phone is wors--there are TWO databases. One that has all the numbers, and another one that has the voice info, but you have to retype all the name/phone info and then associate it with the voice info. I think this is silly and redundant, and not worth my time.

Three years ago was "School for Scandal", last year was "Pacific Overtures", which won six awards, and this year was another Sondheim, "Sunday in the Park with George". At the end of the play, one of my brothers turned to me (we were in a row of 7, and he was at the far end) and gave me the 3-for-3 sign. It was an interesting experience, because at the intermission, I was bitterly disappointed in the play. But by the end, everything came together and it was all wonderful. My older sister and I both cried (she more discreetly than I). As an exercise, it's an interesting play. I mean, who thought you could do that with a painting??? We all liked "Pacific Overtures" better, but it was fun seeing some of the same actors in different roles. I could google on this if I were at home, which is where I will be late tonight--but I am wondering who Jules is supposed to be? We couldn't figure this out.

You = = This reminds me. Are there cell phones where you can do this? I think My "work" mobile is a Nokia 6210, and it can do this. It came with a cd rom with all the software I need to synch the phone with Outlook, to manage the phone on the pc, or to just dump the phone contents to a tab delimited text file. It has an infrared thingy that works with the infrared port on my laptop. So, I do have a backup of what's on the phone. Now, getting that data in to another phone would depend on the other phone. My "private" mobile is a Siemens M35, and it has a serial port connection, but you have to pay for the software (and we had to pay for the cable) and I didn't get it. I don't have a way of backing up that phone, and if I did I don't know that it would read in tab delimited stuff or synch with Outlook, so I don't know if I could go from one phone easily to another. If I had a newer Palm Pilot, I'd have a version of PalmOS that would synch with Outlook, and then I'd really be happy. But anyway, both these phones are about two years old at this point, so none of this is new tech, but it is euro tech. If it's a feature you want, make sure you look for it for your next phone.

It will come as no surprise to anyone who knows me, but I have one of those. And Doug does too. Then, too, I now have a stuffed turkey (plush, not food) that dances and sings "Turkey in the Straw." My sister cannot resist buying this type of toy.

I like "Pacific Overtures" the best of any Sondheim, with the possible exception of "Sweeney Todd" (which is kind of in a category by itself). I've never been able to warm up to "Sunday in the Park." Sondheim is not at his best writing about love except in a cynical kind of way -- I think "Sorry/Grateful" is the best song ever written about marriage, but it's not exactly hearts-and-flowers.

When there are as many armed nutters roaming your country as the US has arming the police would seem sensible. In Britain the number of persons possessing any firearm as a proportion of the population is small when compared to the US. In Britain, the general opinion of anybody owning any firearm other than a shotgun is that they are weird, a nutter or usually both. > >>> We need a >>> soldier of the streets, >> >> Very bad idea. > > Police are a good idea, short of them being used to collect taxes, ie. > speeding tickets. Police, as you say, are a good idea. Your concept of them being a "soldier of the streets" is absurd. If you get a speeding ticket you are fined for the offence not taxed regardless of what you think. >>> Most pilots have a military background and are trained in small arms. >> >> Wrong again, only in your part of the world. > > Cite! I would ask you to do the same. Try the following. Number of Airline Pilots in UK approx 7000 Figure taken from www.balpa.org.uk which gives the number of members of the Airline pilots union. This is not a "closed shop" so there would be an additional number who are not members of the union. The additional non-union number would make up for the number of Flight Engineers included in the BALPA number. This is marginal as airlines have been eliminating Engineers from the flight deck for at least 15 years. No figure is available for the number of pilots joining/leaving the Armed Forces each year. A figure can be found for aircrew in training with the RAF. This is 161 and includes Navigators and other functions. Again another assumption is made that the number of pilots in the Navy and Army would make up for those aircrew who are not pilots. So the number of Military Pilots each year is 161. Minimum length of service as Pilot 12 years. (Found on RAF careers website) If 7000 Pilots are needed as Airline pilots and the Armed Forces produce 161 it takes 43 years to produce the needed pilots. This assumes all pilots leave to work as pilots in civilian life and are based in the UK. The retirement age in the UK is 65 (if all pilots are medically fit to fly at 65 which is unlikely). 65-43=22 So the pilots have to start working as an Airline pilot at 22. However they cannot join the Military as a pilot until the age of 18 and have to serve 12 years. There is a eight year shortfall and 18% cannot be ex-forces pilots. Now if this were the complete number of pilots your statement would have been true. I assume you meant greater the 50% to mean "most". Looking at the Civil Aviation Authority website it's possible to find the number of Professional pilots (15290) and Private pilots (35127) with licences on 31/ 3/1999. Would you like to do the calculation on those numbers ? I don't think you will get anywhere near 50 per cent working with 50417 pilots instead of 7000. > > Or better yet, let's dispense with this potentially emotional issue. > Suffice to say there are two types of people: those who seek to carve > their > own destiny and take upon themselves the risks and benefits of self > protection, granting that right to responsible others... and then there > are > those that don't. > Carving your own destiny does not require any form of firearm.

Nothing to do with Chicago per se, but close friends of my family, RAy and Lorraine (both familys did move to NW Wisconsin from the Chicago area) used to make this over the Thanksgiving and Christmas holidays. On Thanksgiving Day, dad and I used to go hunting with Ray, then all would gather at their home for dinner, which began with super-great martinis (Ray liked anchovy-stuffed olives), went through the usual turkey et al. dinner, and finished with coffee and glogg (sorry, I'm umlaut impaired).

It was the second marriage for both. The wedding took place at the Hearthside Inn, attended by maybe 20 people outside of the principals; the reception took place at the Masonic lodge, about three doors up High Street from the inn. The wedding was presided over by the wife of the former harbormaster here; she works in the city/county clerks office, is a notary, and in other parts of the country might be roughly equivalent to a JP. Then again, maybe not; anyhow, she is duly licensed/appointed/recognized to perfom marriages. A lot of general conversation and catching up on what's happened since the end of the season preceded the ceremony. The ceremony was brief. Afterwards, we congratulated the bride and groom. The former harbormaster went off to the reception, found the bartender there, and convinced him, despite the orders that no liquor service was to begin before 2 P.M., to provide him with a whiskey and water and a white wine to bring back to the happy couple. The reception was something else again. The groom, being a lifelong lobsterman, invited all of his cohorts and competitors that he could think of. We knew (or recognized) perhaps 5% of the throng. They had arranged for a band, which I think played some sort of quasi-country music; after one set, the band seemed to give up, being overwhelmed by (1) the general disinterest in what they were doing and (2) the overwhelming hubbub of the guests, most of whom were talking about almost anything else but the bride and groom. The bar was red wine, white wine, Canadian whiskey, and vodka, with many mixes. There was a keg next to the bar, attended by several men who professed a knowledge of how to make a keg work; as usual, none of them really did. The bartender's notion of a mixed drink (e.g., a Canadian on ice with a little water) was a triple Canadian over ice with the smallest splash of water known to man. This was in mid afternoon. A couple of times I wandered outside to get some fresh air and to avoid the heat and noise of so many celebrants. To stand in the cool afternoon and listen to lobstermen (out there to have a quick cigarette) was to experience an almost totally foreign language. Virtually all of the conversation was about boats---who was selling, who was buying, who was building a new one (that is, having one built), who the good (and worthless) boat builders were. That much I could catch; the remainder (about 70% worth) was about hull designs, interior construction, and engines and their performances---most of which, to me, was equivalent to Old HIgh Martian. The interesting thing was that I didn't really feel left out; I was listening in on a community of people, comfortable and very articulate in their own jargon---that I couldn't comprehend much of what they were saying was not their problem, but rather, mine. We left before the major "feed" began. Too many people, too much heat, too much noise. Beyond that, it was a good time and a relative outsider's chance to see a major portion of this island's and area's people as they congregated to celebrate whatever in the bleak midwinter. cwv From owner-words-l@LISTSERV.UGA.EDU Sat Dec 28 18:14:40 2002 Return-Path: Received: from mailgw.cc.uga.edu (mailgw.cc.uga.edu [128.192.1.101]) by gtoal.com (8.12.6/8.11.6/SuSE Linux 0.5) with ESMTP id gBT0EeOu003136 for ; Sat, 28 Dec 2002 18:14:40 -0600 Received: from listserv.cc.uga.edu (128.192.1.75) by mailgw.cc.uga.edu (LSMTP for Windows NT v1.1b) with SMTP id <0.0421117E@mailgw.cc.uga.edu>; Sat, 28 Dec 2002 19:09:08 -0500 Received: from LISTSERV.UGA.EDU by LISTSERV.UGA.EDU (LISTSERV-TCP/IP release 1.8d) with spool id 3465288 for WORDS-L@LISTSERV.UGA.EDU; Sat, 28 Dec 2002 19:09:08 -0500 Received: from imf04bis.bellsouth.net (mail104.mail.bellsouth.net [205.152.58.44]) by listserv.cc.uga.edu (8.11.6/8.11.6) with ESMTP id gBT098715502 for ; Sat, 28 Dec 2002 19:09:08 -0500 Received: from maynor.net ([67.33.224.78]) by imf04bis.bellsouth.net (InterMail vM.5.01.04.19 201-253-122-122-119-20020516) with ESMTP id <20021229001056.ZGMT193.imf04bis.bellsouth.net@maynor.net> for ; Sat, 28 Dec 2002 19:10:56 -0500 Message-ID: <3E0E3D1F.D6467355@maynor.net> Date: Sat, 28 Dec 2002 18:09:03 -0600 From: Natalie Maynor X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.79 [en] (Windows NT 5.0; U) X-Accept-Language: en MIME-Version: 1.0 To: English Language Discussion Group Subject: Re: [Fwd: Re: [BI] The Bookworm Game] References: <3E0CACC3.194DCB3F@valstar.net> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-words-l@LISTSERV.UGA.EDU Status: RO alyce cresap quoted: > My husband scored 1,467,000 on Bookworm.....does become addictive!

I hear it called "Chapel Hill" most often, including by its graduates, because it's too much of a mouthful to have to say UNCCH. I don't think it's likely to change its official name, as Auburn did, but it's the same general idea -- emphasis on general -- the UNCCH thing is that there are a bunch of UNC campuses, unlike Auburn's thing, which was simply that it's official name was too much of a mouthful and the common label, the town, was finally made its official name. -- -- Natalie (natalie@maynor.net) From owner-words-l@LISTSERV.UGA.EDU Sat Dec 28 18:32:55 2002 Return-Path: Received: from malibu.cc.uga.edu (malibu.cc.uga.edu [128.192.1.103]) by gtoal.com (8.12.6/8.11.6/SuSE Linux 0.5) with ESMTP id gBT0WtOu003246 for ; Sat, 28 Dec 2002 18:32:55 -0600 Received: from listserv.cc.uga.edu (128.192.1.75) by malibu.cc.uga.edu (LSMTP for Windows NT v1.1b) with SMTP id <2.0058566B@malibu.cc.uga.edu>; Sat, 28 Dec 2002 19:18:02 -0500 Received: from LISTSERV.UGA.EDU by LISTSERV.UGA.EDU (LISTSERV-TCP/IP release 1.8d) with spool id 3465428 for WORDS-L@LISTSERV.UGA.EDU; Sat, 28 Dec 2002 19:18:02 -0500 Received: from imf22bis.bellsouth.net (mail122.mail.bellsouth.net [205.152.58.82]) by listserv.cc.uga.edu (8.11.6/8.11.6) with ESMTP id gBT0I2716064 for ; Sat, 28 Dec 2002 19:18:02 -0500 Received: from maynor.net ([66.156.161.163]) by imf22bis.bellsouth.net (InterMail vM.5.01.04.19 201-253-122-122-119-20020516) with ESMTP id <20021229001903.TMQO1300.imf22bis.bellsouth.net@maynor.net> for ; Sat, 28 Dec 2002 19:19:03 -0500 Message-ID: <3E0E3F33.2FCEE0CC@maynor.net> Date: Sat, 28 Dec 2002 18:17:55 -0600 From: Natalie Maynor X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.79 [en] (Windows NT 5.0; U) X-Accept-Language: en MIME-Version: 1.0 To: English Language Discussion Group Subject: Re: Dumb Question References: <17d.14422387.2b3e5559@aol.com> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-words-l@LISTSERV.UGA.EDU Status: RO Evelyn Duncan wrote: > I remember when I was a kid that we could call one of our phones > from the other by dialing "11911."

I remember my mother's laughter when I would sometimes do that from my bedroom and she'd answer the kitchen phone and I'd say, "I'll have bacon, eggs, grits, toast, and jelly." (We didn't have phones in every room. We had the wall phone in the kitchen, and the other phone traveled among the three bedrooms, each of which had a jack for it -- the old-fashioned kind of jack -- not like today's phone jacks.

What's the difference between being weird and being a nutter? And why are shotguns exempt? Hunting? I'm not so sure that attitudes are all that different here, except that I'd add to your weird/nutter category two more: (1) gun collectors, who I would say are likely -- i.e., they're people who for some reason like collecting guns like other people collect dolls or beer mugs or whatever, and (2) criminals or potential criminals, who are perhaps in the weird/nutter category, though I'm not sure.

Yes. My parents decided in the early '90s that they needed to live closer to one or the other of us. We all thought Huntsville would be better than Starkville because of more activities for senior citizens, better medical care, etc. That was a mistake, though. My father had alzheimers when they moved, which meant not much chance to take advantage of "activities," and my mother spent full-time taking care of him. After he died, she started sinking. She did have a couple of Sunday School friends and one great neighbor who visited her after she became pretty much housebound, but it was still a sad situation. The hired help after she had to have around-the-clock care told me that they saw me far more often than they saw my RRB&SIL. I went once a month. My RRB&SIL saw her than that. > I'm glad the service was nice. I think it makes a big > difference if the minister knows the deceased. Yes. I was very, very happy with the way that turned out.

FWIW, we had something similar with my MIL when she was alive. When it became clear that she couldn't live on her own in Youngstown anymore (she was too unsteady on her feet to walk anywhere by herself), she decided to move out to Virginia to be near my (not rich) SIL, who set her up in some Section 8 housing that my MIL hated. My MIL said in the year or so she lived out there, my SIL visited her twice. We then moved her out here to live in the senior housing at the end of our subdivision. She saw one of us nearly every day.

I suddenly think I've told this story here before -- I > have a memory of talking about trains, planes, and busses between here > and Chicago. My point is that I just don't get it. It isn't that unusual. When I worked in the nursing home in high school, lots of the residents never got visitors -- and they'd lived in the area all their lives. I always thought maybe it was just something depressing about the nursing home that people couldn't bring themselves to go (it was not a very nice place -- the smell of urine nearly knocked you over when you walked in the front door). Of course, that's not an excuse for not visiting your parents. I remember one woman who visited her mother who cried every time she came. The mother was completely comatose and her whole body was stiff. She ground her teeth all the time, and to feed her you had to time the spoon going in between the grinds. (I took Ann some > beautiful flowers late this afternoon, and she loved them. I first > stopped at the nurses' station and asked if there was any superstition > about funeral flowers. They assured me that there wasn't and that Ann > would love them. She did seem to.) Funeral directors often dropped flowers off inside the front door after a (former) resident's funeral.

REGALE? Normal people don't regale, K-R-N. Just what are you trying to keep weird? There is just one thing I didn't like about Kopi this time--picture of a goddess on the bathroom mirror. It was with effort that I could... go... huh huh. It isn't nice to use other people's religious icons as wacky symbols of Girl Powrr or whatever. It is serious business for a lot of people--for example, now that we are forced to have toilets inside homes, we take special pains to put them as far away from the gods as possible. Basically, I think nobody realizes that icons this "wacky" might actually be in daily operation in a living, non-tribal culture.

Have you seen nasty Indians chewing "paan" after dinner? This is the beer equivalent of paan. The "glass" does make you feel you are sitting in some medieval weirdo's alchemy lab, though, and it can be tricky to handle it. Google yields , which is a good picture of this glass. A good way to drink from it is this: lift the assembly by the stem of the rack until you have drunk half to one inch. Do this fast. Now the glass has a FATASS[tm] which stabilizes it completely. From this point, you exploit its well-architected shape--lift it diagonally away from the stand in a smooth motion so it disengages, and drink normally. Put it back with the reverse motion. This constitutes the andante. Finally, when you reach the waist, you must change pace again. Otherwise the considerable amount of beer in the bulb can will descend on your face. You must let it out in a slow and continuous flow until it fills your mouth. At this stage, if you keep your eyes open, it will seem to you that you are drinking from the primal jet of life which issues forth from the womb of the earth--proving in reality that you have by now turned into a Hogarthian tippler of uncertain sex. You pretty much end up inverting it completely over your upturned mouth, but remember there is no shame in it since YOU HAVE PAID. Despite the complicated sound of this, it is a drunk-friendly and stable gadget.

I got to talk with Miss Grace once, when I called Huntsville on some urgent list business; when I explained I was one of Natalie's computer pals, she understood and forgave me for the intrusion. Natalie, there will be a million times when you want to tell your mother a story, and realize that she is not there. You will want to ask her a question, and realize she is not there. Call me up if you want to (859.293.6450); I am no counselor, but just a good friend. Be warned: I may boo-hoo before you do. One story: I have found a restaurant that Daddy likes (no small task). I insist on interacting with the wait staff. Our favorite server is named Natalie. When we recently went at an odd hour, we got someone new; when I asked her what was her name, she said, "Natalie -- they call me 'Deuce'." I tipped her big.

The thing that makes it different with Mama is that I had already moved gradually into the situation as she declined more and more. Although she wasn't confused in the way Daddy was -- she didn't have alzheimers or any other major senility of that kind, she was sort of fading out mentally. Often I wasn't sure how much of the difficulty in conversations was that she for some reason rarely had her hearing aids turned up high enough (during recent times I mean) and how much was a matter of her mental processing. But things she would have found hilarious in the past she seemed not quite to get, and questions I asked her sometimes got odd answers. The person I was visiting in the past month or so had moments of being Mama but wasn't consistenly so. She was somebody else. > favorite server is named Natalie.

So the only way to get to drink from the glass is to order the beer. The other night someone did order a Kwak and the server apologised and asked if he wanted something else, as they were out of glasses. That doesn't usually happen with other beers when they're out of the glass. When I was going to school in Schenectady, we used to drink at a local bar. We weren't welcome, but we were tolerated, usually. One time we went in there and the place was packed and there were lots of people drinking out of long boot shaped glasses. Then at least, you didn't need the funky holder.

Italian sausage, diced tomatoes, oregano, some beans, noodles. Cooked up in about 20 minutes, so is a candidate for the non-vacation menu. I modified a recipe from from a Reames noodle coupon. Next time I might throw in some spinach. I'm into stews right now. Yesterday I made Sally Lunn bread, koulourakia, gingersnaps, chocolate chip cookies (with ghiradelli double chocolate chips), and a lemon bundt cake. Church attendance is usually pretty low without Sunday School for the kids, but that's ok -- I needed to get the baking out of my system since I didn't do any for the holidays other than a few pumpkin pies for Kevin and Ana to fight over and some cookies for Santa. -- Rita Rouvalis Chapman rouvalis@swbell.net, rita@etext.org http://www.etext.org/~rita From owner-words-l@LISTSERV.UGA.EDU Sun Dec 29 09:37:50 2002 Return-Path: Received: from mailgw.cc.uga.edu (mailgw.cc.uga.edu [128.192.1.101]) by gtoal.com (8.12.6/8.11.6/SuSE Linux 0.5) with ESMTP id gBTFboOu008895 for ; Sun, 29 Dec 2002 09:37:50 -0600 Received: from listserv.cc.uga.edu (128.192.1.75) by mailgw.cc.uga.edu (LSMTP for Windows NT v1.1b) with SMTP id <0.0421298C@mailgw.cc.uga.edu>; 29 Dec 2002 10:32:12 -0500 Received: from LISTSERV.UGA.EDU by LISTSERV.UGA.EDU (LISTSERV-TCP/IP release 1.8d) with spool id 3471625 for WORDS-L@LISTSERV.UGA.EDU; Sun, 29 Dec 2002 10:32:11 -0500 Received: from mta4.rcsntx.swbell.net (mta4.rcsntx.swbell.net [151.164.30.28]) by listserv.cc.uga.edu (8.11.6/8.11.6) with ESMTP id gBTFWB705360 for ; Sun, 29 Dec 2002 10:32:11 -0500 Received: from swbell.net ([65.65.203.141]) by mta4.rcsntx.swbell.net (iPlanet Messaging Server 5.1 HotFix 1.6 (built Oct 18 2002)) with ESMTP id <0H7W00ARD0HMUH@mta4.rcsntx.swbell.net> for WORDS-L@LISTSERV.UGA.EDU; Sun, 29 Dec 2002 09:32:11 -0600 (CST) Date: Sun, 29 Dec 2002 09:33:06 -0600 From: Rita Chapman Subject: Re: Tushar Report, or How I Lost My Virginity To: English Language Discussion Group Reply-to: rouvalis@swbell.net Message-id: <3E0F15B2.5030104@swbell.net> Organization: If I Only Had a Brain, Inc.

Good point, there isn't a lot, but thinking about it you can't really be both. Weird people keep themselves to themselves, nutters will try to involve others or affect others with their strangeness. > And why > are shotguns exempt? In British law there is definition of a shotgun to separate the licence from other firearms. Shotguns are more a tool of the farmer, and used for shooting birds, rabbits and clay pigeons. I did look up the definition and it states that a shotgun has a smooth bore, the barrel is not less than 24 inches and has no magazine loading amongst other things. > [didn't read the rest of your posting -- am very, very tired tonight and > just somehow couldn't get into gun readings] > It did get a little long didn't it. > -- > -- Natalie (natalie@maynor.net) > Roy From owner-words-l@LISTSERV.UGA.EDU Sun Dec 29 16:52:34 2002 Return-Path: Received: from mailgw.cc.uga.edu (mailgw.cc.uga.edu [128.192.1.101]) by gtoal.com (8.12.6/8.11.6/SuSE Linux 0.5) with ESMTP id gBTMqXOu010867 for ; Sun, 29 Dec 2002 16:52:34 -0600 Received: from listserv.cc.uga.edu (128.192.1.75) by mailgw.cc.uga.edu (LSMTP for Windows NT v1.1b) with SMTP id <0.042135CE@mailgw.cc.uga.edu>; 29 Dec 2002 17:46:52 -0500 Received: from LISTSERV.UGA.EDU by LISTSERV.UGA.EDU (LISTSERV-TCP/IP release 1.8d) with spool id 3480972 for WORDS-L@LISTSERV.UGA.EDU; Sun, 29 Dec 2002 17:46:52 -0500 Received: from mail2.panax.com (mail2.panax.com [63.163.40.22]) by listserv.cc.uga.edu (8.11.6/8.11.6) with ESMTP id gBTMkq702206 for ; Sun, 29 Dec 2002 17:46:52 -0500 Received: from D15GWD11.panax.com (iprs1-65-114-190-51.panax.com [65.114.190.51]) by mail2.panax.com (8.11.6/8.11.6) with ESMTP id gBTMkot15677 for ; Sun, 29 Dec 2002 17:46:50 -0500 Message-Id: <5.1.0.14.0.20021229150350.00b65750@mail.panax.com> X-Sender: cwv@mail.panax.com X-Mailer: QUALCOMM Windows Eudora Version 5.1 Date: Sun, 29 Dec 2002 15:07:16 -0500 To: English Language Discussion Group From: "clyde w. voigtlander" Subject: Re: Tushar Report, or How I Lost My Virginity In-Reply-To: Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii"; format=flowed Sender: owner-words-l@LISTSERV.UGA.EDU Status: RO At 07:35 PM 12/29/2002 +0000, rashmi wrote: >From: Karen Kay > >>No, I said that statistically smokers hog the lions' share of health >>care resources. > >Cite!

The most obvious deficiency is that is doesn't take into account the decreased life expectancy of smokers.

All carved out their destinies, and foreshortened the destinies of others, with firearms. cwv From owner-words-l@LISTSERV.UGA.EDU Sun Dec 29 17:26:04 2002 Return-Path: Received: from mailgw.cc.uga.edu (mailgw.cc.uga.edu [128.192.1.101]) by gtoal.com (8.12.6/8.11.6/SuSE Linux 0.5) with ESMTP id gBTNQ3Ou011040 for ; Sun, 29 Dec 2002 17:26:04 -0600 Received: from listserv.cc.uga.edu (128.192.1.75) by mailgw.cc.uga.edu (LSMTP for Windows NT v1.1b) with SMTP id <0.042136DE@mailgw.cc.uga.edu>; 29 Dec 2002 18:20:22 -0500 Received: from LISTSERV.UGA.EDU by LISTSERV.UGA.EDU (LISTSERV-TCP/IP release 1.8d) with spool id 3481879 for WORDS-L@LISTSERV.UGA.EDU; Sun, 29 Dec 2002 18:20:22 -0500 Received: from mail.xnet.com (quake.xnet.com [198.147.221.67]) by listserv.cc.uga.edu (8.11.6/8.11.6) with ESMTP id gBTNKM704706 for ; Sun, 29 Dec 2002 18:20:22 -0500 Received: from typhoon.xnet.com (typhoon.xnet.com [198.147.221.66]) by mail.xnet.com (8.9.3+Sun/XNet-3.0R) with ESMTP id RAA14672 for ; Sun, 29 Dec 2002 17:20:21 -0600 (CST) Received: by typhoon.xnet.com (Postfix, from userid 10045) id 7C74D38699; Sun, 29 Dec 2002 17:20:21 -0600 (CST) Date: Sun, 29 Dec 2002 17:20:21 -0600 From: Tushar Samant To: English Language Discussion Group Subject: Re: CST/Sunday Message-ID: <20021229232021.GB6949@pobox.com> References: <3E0F32FF.4C9BF952@maynor.net> <20021229204155.4833E7C07@yellow.rahul.net> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Disposition: inline In-Reply-To: <20021229204155.4833E7C07@yellow.rahul.net> User-Agent: Mutt/1.3.28i Sender: owner-words-l@LISTSERV.UGA.EDU Status: RO On Sun, Dec 29, 2002 at 12:41:55PM -0800, Karen Kay wrote: > Yes, Tushar was very kind and helpful, and showed me a few Union > Station tricks.

They stand there not knowing what to do, cautiously eyeing the banister, or wondering if the walls have velcro, when suddenly, BOOM, you are on the escalator and out at the street level.

Tuscan cooking uses nuts quite a bit. Some people just don't like corn meal in any form. I like it as fried mush (I make my own--it's better than the tube polenta in the stores). Most of the flavored polenta in stores doesn't attract me at all.

The downside to this is the hot water for showers never gets to a good temperature. The other pitfall is having to listen to Tina complain about how her parents kept a cold house when she was a kid, something she swore she would never do. We have a compromise.

But I'm not sure that they're mutually exclusive categories. I can see "weird" as a larger category -- like all nutters are weird, but not all weirdos are nutters. Then again, maybe not. Maybe "weird" does exclude the nutters. > > And why > > are shotguns exempt? > > In British law there is definition of a shotgun to separate the licence > from other firearms.

I remember that something came up about hunting one time in one of my "free conversation" groups, and I asked the students how there could be hunting in gunless Japan -- whether it was just bow hunting or some such. The reply was that hunting with guns was in fact legal -- and something about the kinds of rifles. ("Free conversation" did not mean fluent conversation, btw. Most of the participants could speak little English, so not all info I gleaned in these conversations is necessarily accurate.) > > [didn't read the rest of your posting -- am very, very tired tonight and > > just somehow couldn't get into gun readings] > > > It did get a little long didn't it.

I root for the Jets in general (after the Eagles, of course), but yesterday it was nice that all my homies down in Philly were also rooting for the Jets -- the Jets win gives Philly home field advantage over Green Bay, something one very much wants to have. I don't see any reason why Philly can't beat Green Bay. Favre is awesome, but there's not that much else going on there. Unless the Eagles that showed up on Sunday appear again.

They look good on young people where they can be recognized as retro, but if you wear them, a lot of people won't get the humor.

How do we get the information we need >from those who possess it? Well, for starters, let's review the Geneva Convention : * Every prisoner of war, when questioned on the subject, is bound to give only his surname, first names and rank, date of birth, and army, regimental, personal or serial number, or failing this, equivalent information. * No physical or mental torture, nor any other form of coercion, may be inflicted on prisoners of war to secure from them information of any kind whatever. Prisoners of war who refuse to answer may not be threatened, insulted, or exposed to any unpleasant or disadvantageous treatment of any kind. So know that you're breaking or subverting very important international codes of conduct to go beyond that. Assuming your moral compass allows you to continue, I think you still have to be guided by the Golden Rule. How much are you willing to have your soldiers and officers mistreated by the enemy in the pursuit of information? That's the line to stop at, or a little before. If you don't stop there, you have no grounds for complaining when it happens to your people. If that doesn't extract enough information from prisoners, so be it -- figure out how to do better surveillance elsewhere, instead.

I kind of like xmas shopping when I have time and when I find appropriate things. And it didn't bother me in the least that I received no xmas presents this year (unless my RRB&SIL find that lost gift card someday, which I doubt that they will). I did, of course, receive at least twenty calendars plus a bunch of wrapping paper and stuff and a xmas mug and probably some other things I'm forgetting. I really wish charitable causes wouldn't spend their money on such gifts, even though I did use some of the wrapping paper and always use a couple of the calendars. -- -- Natalie (natalie@maynor.net) From owner-words-l@LISTSERV.UGA.EDU Mon Dec 30 14:39:47 2002 Return-Path: Received: from mailgw.cc.uga.edu (mailgw.cc.uga.edu [128.192.1.101]) by gtoal.com (8.12.6/8.11.6/SuSE Linux 0.5) with ESMTP id gBUKdkOu018798 for ; Mon, 30 Dec 2002 14:39:46 -0600 Received: from listserv.cc.uga.edu (128.192.1.75) by mailgw.cc.uga.edu (LSMTP for Windows NT v1.1b) with SMTP id <0.042167BB@mailgw.cc.uga.edu>; Mon, 30 Dec 2002 15:33:56 -0500 Received: from LISTSERV.UGA.EDU by LISTSERV.UGA.EDU (LISTSERV-TCP/IP release 1.8d) with spool id 3486905 for WORDS-L@LISTSERV.UGA.EDU; Mon, 30 Dec 2002 15:33:56 -0500 Received: from mail.xnet.com (quake.xnet.com [198.147.221.67]) by listserv.cc.uga.edu (8.11.6/8.11.6) with ESMTP id gBUKXt722654 for ; Mon, 30 Dec 2002 15:33:56 -0500 Received: from typhoon.xnet.com (typhoon.xnet.com [198.147.221.66]) by mail.xnet.com (8.9.3+Sun/XNet-3.0R) with ESMTP id OAA05031 for ; Mon, 30 Dec 2002 14:33:55 -0600 (CST) Received: by typhoon.xnet.com (Postfix, from userid 10045) id 65CBC38699; Mon, 30 Dec 2002 14:33:55 -0600 (CST) Date: Mon, 30 Dec 2002 14:33:55 -0600 From: Tushar Samant To: English Language Discussion Group Subject: Re: so convenient Message-ID: <20021230203355.GA29510@pobox.com> References: Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Disposition: inline In-Reply-To: User-Agent: Mutt/1.3.28i Sender: owner-words-l@LISTSERV.UGA.EDU Status: RO On Mon, Dec 30, 2002 at 12:26:42PM -0800, Ann Borkin wrote: > On Mon, 30 Dec 2002, Janet Hardy wrote: > > > >Oh just imagine an elderly Janeane Garofolo. > > > > Ann, you are toying with poor Tushar's affections again. > > Jeez can't anybody on this list tell the difference between flirting and > toying?

We drove to the Delta. We bought some zinfandel from a man in a garage; then we bought some more from a woman in a chai. (Definition found here: http://www.internationalrecipesonline.com/recipes/dictionary.pl?1407 ) We saw large black bunches of grapes hanging on old black vines, unpicked and weathering. We saw these several places. The man said they were Tokay grapes that nobody wants any more (table grapes, probably with seeds). The sturdy old vine roots will be capped with more fashionable grapes, eventually. These rows looked very sinister under the gathering clouds.

In a sense, there are three seasons of college BB. The early one, with the holiday tournaments and a lot of "powers" beating up on cupcakes. Some perennial powers also schedule a few games against other (non-conference) powers then. Next comes the conference season; champions of major conferences typically get a bid to the NCAA tournament (the Big Dance) in March. The conference season also tends to expose those teams who built flashy records early against weak opponents. Then finally the Big Dance. Right now, we're still in Season 1---sometimes entertaining, but difficult to take seriously (unless of course you are in Kentucky when UK and Louisville play).

I took Ana and Vinnie to Columbia Bottoms, which is a wildlife area at the confluence of the Mississippi and Missouri Rivers. When Karo I explored it this past spring, it was almost completely undeveloped. Nothing was marked, and you had to sort of find the levee to hike on or tromp through the croplands, which were unplanted due to flooding, in the general direction of what you thought might be where the rivers meet. We never found the actual confluence because it was still flooded in that area, but we had a great time and saw lots of meadowlarks, and Vinnie even flushed a pheasant. Today we got out there, and it is officially closed due to construction, but a man coming out as we were going in said nobody minded him being there today; only the surveyors were working. In fact, a while later we ran across the department of conservation guy, and he waved and smiled at us. It is a completely changed place. They've leveled the top of the levee so that it has a flat crushed stone surface, and there is a paved road running through the croplands (not finished yet). Ana and Vinnie had a lovely time running through the mud and big puddles -- Ana is turning into an A-1 hiking companion -- and the paths down to the Missouri are being marked by three little parking spaces! Karo and I sank up to our knees in mud last year trying to get to the riverbank. I have mixed feelings. On one hand, it was a much less rugged hike, and the surface of the levee is lovely for running on, but on the other hand it doesn't have the wild feel it used to, and I'm hoping it remains relatively undiscovered. It is being developed in conjunction with all the work being done on the bike trail that runs along the Mississippi and over the Chain of Rocks Bridge onto Chouteau Island (another favorite spot of mine, also relatively undiscovered, but I didn't want to risk the station wagon getting stuck in the mud getting to the canal road). Oh, and Ana and I saw a mature bald eagle today. She thinks this is ho-hum, but it always stuns me. -- Rita Rouvalis Chapman rouvalis@swbell.net, rita@etext.org http://www.etext.org/~rita From owner-words-l@LISTSERV.UGA.EDU Mon Dec 30 20:54:43 2002 Return-Path: Received: from mailgw.cc.uga.edu (mailgw.cc.uga.edu [128.192.1.101]) by gtoal.com (8.12.6/8.11.6/SuSE Linux 0.5) with ESMTP id gBV2sgOu020802 for ; Mon, 30 Dec 2002 20:54:43 -0600 Received: from listserv.cc.uga.edu (128.192.1.75) by mailgw.cc.uga.edu (LSMTP for Windows NT v1.1b) with SMTP id <0.0421784E@mailgw.cc.uga.edu>; Mon, 30 Dec 2002 21:48:50 -0500 Received: from LISTSERV.UGA.EDU by LISTSERV.UGA.EDU (LISTSERV-TCP/IP release 1.8d) with spool id 3500431 for WORDS-L@LISTSERV.UGA.EDU; Mon, 30 Dec 2002 21:48:49 -0500 Received: from rwcrmhc52.attbi.com (rwcrmhc52.attbi.com [216.148.227.88]) by listserv.cc.uga.edu (8.11.6/8.11.6) with ESMTP id gBV2mn725752 for ; Mon, 30 Dec 2002 21:48:49 -0500 Received: from brunnhilde (h0000395afdd6.ne.client2.attbi.com[66.31.143.74]) by rwcrmhc52.attbi.com (rwcrmhc52) with SMTP id <20021231024843052006qolle>; Tue, 31 Dec 2002 02:48:43 +0000 From: "Adam Hartfield" To: "meebers" Subject: Outbreak Date: Mon, 30 Dec 2002 21:48:42 -0500 Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit X-Priority: 3 (Normal) X-MSMail-Priority: Normal X-Mailer: Microsoft Outlook IMO, Build 9.0.2416 (9.0.2911.0) X-MimeOLE: Produced By Microsoft MimeOLE V6.00.2800.1106 Importance: Normal Sender: owner-words-l@LISTSERV.UGA.EDU Status: RO ...Our favorite list movie is on Sunday night at 8 EST on TNT. I've never seen it. For those of you who don't know what it's about, here's the blurb from tvguide.com (copied without permission): Dustin Hoffman stars as an Army virologist in this 1995 thriller, which is so well-acted and breathlessly paced that it rises above its implausible script. Hoffman and a team of scientists (Rene Russo, Kevin Spacey, Cuba Gooding Jr.) are desperately trying to contain the spread of a killer virus. The epidemic has decimated a small California town, and the scientists realize that they cannot find a cure until they locate the source of the disease---an infected African monkey. But first they must get past a military officer (Donald Sutherland) whose solution is to incinerate the town and everyone in it. --Adam From owner-words-l@LISTSERV.UGA.EDU Mon Dec 30 20:57:29 2002 Return-Path: Received: from malibu.cc.uga.edu (malibu.cc.uga.edu [128.192.1.103]) by gtoal.com (8.12.6/8.11.6/SuSE Linux 0.5) with ESMTP id gBV2vSOu020846 for ; Mon, 30 Dec 2002 20:57:29 -0600 Received: from listserv.cc.uga.edu (128.192.1.75) by malibu.cc.uga.edu (LSMTP for Windows NT v1.1b) with SMTP id <0.0058B5D7@malibu.cc.uga.edu>; Mon, 30 Dec 2002 21:51:36 -0500 Received: from LISTSERV.UGA.EDU by LISTSERV.UGA.EDU (LISTSERV-TCP/IP release 1.8d) with spool id 3500470 for WORDS-L@LISTSERV.UGA.EDU; Mon, 30 Dec 2002 21:51:35 -0500 Received: from vmmr9.verisignmail.com (vmmrnat.verisignmail.com [216.168.230.187]) by listserv.cc.uga.edu (8.11.6/8.11.6) with ESMTP id gBV2pZ725967 for ; Mon, 30 Dec 2002 21:51:35 -0500 Received: from vmms8.verisignmail.com (vmms8.verisignmail.com [216.168.230.153] (may be forged)) by vmmr9.verisignmail.com (Mirapoint Messaging Server MOS 2.9.3.2) with ESMTP id OZL30816; Mon, 30 Dec 2002 21:51:35 -0500 (EST) Received: from korean111 (korean111.moore.hawaii.edu [128.171.223.111]) by vmms8.verisignmail.com (Mirapoint Messaging Server MOS 2.9.3.2) with ESMTP id EDB80502; Mon, 30 Dec 2002 21:51:33 -0500 (EST) From: "Michael E.

I'd rather be cold going from house to car and from car to office or car to store or whatever than have to fool with a coat. -- -- Natalie (natalie@maynor.net) From owner-words-l@LISTSERV.UGA.EDU Mon Dec 30 21:26:21 2002 Return-Path: Received: from mailgw.cc.uga.edu (mailgw.cc.uga.edu [128.192.1.101]) by gtoal.com (8.12.6/8.11.6/SuSE Linux 0.5) with ESMTP id gBV3QLOu020953 for ; Mon, 30 Dec 2002 21:26:21 -0600 Received: from listserv.cc.uga.edu (128.192.1.75) by mailgw.cc.uga.edu (LSMTP for Windows NT v1.1b) with SMTP id <0.0421795E@mailgw.cc.uga.edu>; Mon, 30 Dec 2002 22:20:28 -0500 Received: from LISTSERV.UGA.EDU by LISTSERV.UGA.EDU (LISTSERV-TCP/IP release 1.8d) with spool id 3501372 for WORDS-L@LISTSERV.UGA.EDU; Mon, 30 Dec 2002 22:20:27 -0500 Received: from imf14bis.bellsouth.net (mail114.mail.bellsouth.net [205.152.58.54]) by listserv.cc.uga.edu (8.11.6/8.11.6) with ESMTP id gBV3KR728389 for ; Mon, 30 Dec 2002 22:20:27 -0500 Received: from maynor.net ([67.32.248.125]) by imf14bis.bellsouth.net (InterMail vM.5.01.04.19 201-253-122-122-119-20020516) with ESMTP id <20021231032215.HWUI26296.imf14bis.bellsouth.net@maynor.net> for ; Mon, 30 Dec 2002 22:22:15 -0500 Message-ID: <3E110CF7.C19A296F@maynor.net> Date: Mon, 30 Dec 2002 21:20:23 -0600 From: Natalie Maynor X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.79 [en] (Windows NT 5.0; U) X-Accept-Language: en MIME-Version: 1.0 To: English Language Discussion Group Subject: Re: Iggles References: <5.1.0.14.0.20021230200903.00b63cf0@mail.panax.com> <5.1.0.14.0.20021230204442.00b58938@mail.panax.com> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-words-l@LISTSERV.UGA.EDU Status: RO "clyde w. voigtlander" wrote: > Right now, we're still in Season 1---sometimes entertaining, but difficult > to take seriously (unless of course you are in Kentucky when UK and > Louisville play).

The Game seems to accept pretty much any combination of letters. Actually, though, I'm pretty sure I've seen the word "vailed" -- in old stuff, I think -- but I don't remember what it means (if I ever knew). Speaking of The Game, I take back what I said about how it would never end if you didn't hit the x. I started playing it this morning and burned up -- it didn't seem to like words like uuuiu. :-( And speaking of words, my status was deemed Lexographer (I was somewhere around 630,000 points, I think).

I keep trying to decide what to replace them with. Wmart doesn't seem to have old-fashioned fat blinds, just miniblinds. And the whole blinds matter gives me pause since I don't think I would succeed in hanging them. I remember buying some miniblinds for my previous house and finally giving them to the Salvation Army because doing anything else with them was way beyond my abilities. What are some other possible solutions? I know how to hang shades. Have done that many times. But the ones at Wmart are very ugly. And I would need something at the top -- valances or something. (Probably that would look better with the miniblinds also, of course. I've thought about putting up a long rod with fabric draped on it, like in my den -- where it already was -- I didn't engineer it.) The room is pretty private -- will get back to its very private state if the pompass grass I planted to replace the rotten fence hurries up and gets big.

I was right that the recent expiration of benefits meant that people who still had time left on the orginal 13 week extension had that stop. But I also read that when extending that eligibility comes up for debate in January that there are many, including Hillary, who want to provide another 13 weeks of federal extension to unemployment benefits. So that means that people who are becoming unemployed now will have a full year of benefits available to them.

Well, in the beginning of the article he goes on about how cranky and smart-assed he was being with the security guys, then at the end he claims all he did was sigh at them. He needs to make up his mind. I think he was being a jerk from the get-go and was probably mouthing off the entire time, and when he got up in the guard's face and screamed at him, it was the last straw. And I wonder about the wisdom or sensitivity (my wife was crying and a normal person gets upset!) of telling the entire world about your wife's swollen breasts after she's just been traumatized so badly about having them touched by a female security person that her baby flipped in her womb. -- Rita Rouvalis Chapman rouvalis@swbell.net, rita@etext.org http://www.etext.org/~rita From owner-words-l@LISTSERV.UGA.EDU Tue Dec 31 13:41:21 2002 Return-Path: Received: from malibu.cc.uga.edu (malibu.cc.uga.edu [128.192.1.103]) by gtoal.com (8.12.6/8.11.6/SuSE Linux 0.5) with ESMTP id gBVJfLOu027886 for ; Tue, 31 Dec 2002 13:41:21 -0600 Received: from listserv.cc.uga.edu (128.192.1.75) by malibu.cc.uga.edu (LSMTP for Windows NT v1.1b) with SMTP id <0.0058D564@malibu.cc.uga.edu>; Tue, 31 Dec 2002 14:14:36 -0500 Received: from LISTSERV.UGA.EDU by LISTSERV.UGA.EDU (LISTSERV-TCP/IP release 1.8d) with spool id 3531291 for WORDS-L@LISTSERV.UGA.EDU; Tue, 31 Dec 2002 14:14:36 -0500 Received: from mta5.rcsntx.swbell.net (mta5.rcsntx.swbell.net [151.164.30.29]) by listserv.cc.uga.edu (8.11.6/8.11.6) with ESMTP id gBVJEaT26835 for ; Tue, 31 Dec 2002 14:14:36 -0500 Received: from swbell.net ([65.66.62.129]) by mta5.rcsntx.swbell.net (iPlanet Messaging Server 5.1 HotFix 1.6 (built Oct 18 2002)) with ESMTP id <0H8000MY504BLQ@mta5.rcsntx.swbell.net> for WORDS-L@LISTSERV.UGA.EDU; Tue, 31 Dec 2002 13:14:36 -0600 (CST) Date: Tue, 31 Dec 2002 13:15:29 -0600 From: Rita Chapman Subject: Re: Tushar Report, or How I Lost My Virginity To: English Language Discussion Group Reply-to: rouvalis@swbell.net Message-id: <3E11ECD1.3010307@swbell.net> Organization: If I Only Had a Brain, Inc.

I've never been able to keep up with the latest deals either and had the same carrier for years until I realized I was paying thro' the nose.

I think the price was $35, and Marshall's still has prices like this. This one needs a bit of patching and a couple of buttons now, but it has been great for all but the coldest days in Chicago. In fact a lot of (shivering) people have told me that it looks very warm--and, well, that's because they don't go to thrift stores or Marshall's.

Well, Doug learned that if you look eccentric, you get searched. Yesterday, on two different flights, he was the only one taken off separately and made to take off his belt and shoes. Of course he has this eccentric beard, eccentric pony tail, eccentric cap (I don't know what it's called--it's from New Zealand, and it is not a beret--but it is eccentric by US standards). And probably his Chicago Blackhawks jacket is the red flag that makes him appear to be a terrorist. alyce From owner-words-l@LISTSERV.UGA.EDU Tue Dec 31 14:45:18 2002 Return-Path: Received: from mailgw.cc.uga.edu (mailgw.cc.uga.edu [128.192.1.101]) by gtoal.com (8.12.6/8.11.6/SuSE Linux 0.5) with ESMTP id gBVKjIOu028366 for ; Tue, 31 Dec 2002 14:45:18 -0600 Received: from listserv.cc.uga.edu (128.192.1.75) by mailgw.cc.uga.edu (LSMTP for Windows NT v1.1b) with SMTP id <0.0421A4F2@mailgw.cc.uga.edu>; Tue, 31 Dec 2002 15:38:28 -0500 Received: from LISTSERV.UGA.EDU by LISTSERV.UGA.EDU (LISTSERV-TCP/IP release 1.8d) with spool id 3534149 for WORDS-L@LISTSERV.UGA.EDU; Tue, 31 Dec 2002 15:38:27 -0500 Received: from mx0.inoc.net (mx0.inoc.net [64.246.130.30]) by listserv.cc.uga.edu (8.11.6/8.11.6) with ESMTP id gBVKcRT02004 for ; Tue, 31 Dec 2002 15:38:27 -0500 Received: from valstar.net (cust183.as1-gtown.valstar.net [64.246.150.185]) by mx0.inoc.net (Vircom SMTPRS 5.3.232) with ESMTP id for ; Tue, 31 Dec 2002 15:37:59 -0500 Message-ID: <3E1200DC.3ACD720F@valstar.net> Date: Tue, 31 Dec 2002 15:41:00 -0500 From: alyce cresap Organization: http://www.alybooks.com X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.7 [en]C-{C-UDP; 1D-FSTD} (Win95; U) X-Accept-Language: en MIME-Version: 1.0 To: English Language Discussion Group Subject: Re: wahoo References: <5.2.0.9.0.20021231111847.00b15dd0@mail.attbi.com> <20021231182516.GB24253@pobox.com> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-words-l@LISTSERV.UGA.EDU Status: R Someone wrote: > > Anyone with a working internet connection and a working browser can go to > > .

Looking eccentric is very suspicious indeed--I have always gotten searched except in Chicago (where perhaps I look black enough). At a recent meeting of the reconstituted FATASS society it turned out that both other members (one half-japanese, the other with long hair) had this experience (minutes of the drunk meeting available at ).

Specialty stores are harder to come by (there aren't any up here north of the city, but there are plenty in the more affluent suburbs). If you have a Home Depot/Lowe's or something of that nature near you, a lot of times they have lists of contractors that do various things. An interior decorator would do it, also.

My winter coat this year is a number I bought on Ebay year before last for a New York trip -- gray wool lined with red wool, hooded, very nice. At the time I bought it, it was too small, so I stuck it in the back of the closet intending to give it to someone who might like it. It turned up during the move and I found that it fits me perfectly now. It's been a godsend during these storms.

He does sound strange looking. But I've seen plenty of looking people searched and stuff, too. I'm searched a lot, and I'm a these days.

My step-MIL tells me that she has used one for itty bitty jobs that she just couldn't figure out, and her house isn't very fancy.

Hot Tuna is a duo, Kaukonen and Casady. Why would you need (or want) another bassist when Jack's there? Tell you the truth, I've never heard of Byron House. Though I have apparently unheedingly heard a little bit of his work -- of the 78 listings under his name at B&N.com, I'd listened to exactly two (Will the Circle Be Unbroken Vol.3, Philadelphia Folk Festival 40th Anniversary). Interestingly, Amazon draws a blank on his name. I thought maybe B&N specialized in studio sidemen, but they list only five items for Hal Blaine, three for Charlie McCoy, three for Al Kooper. David Lindley (everybody's session guitarist) gets only two, but some of his compatriots in Jackson Browne's albums of the 70s come out with huge lists -- 232 for Russ Kunkel, 289 for Leland Sklar, 143 for Wilton Felder.

Buy 'em online -- nowadays you get the numbers right away via email or over the web. I've used speedypin.com, and they've been reasonable for calls to Europe; haven't tried India or Asia. Another possible approach: I recently replaced our regular home phone line with Vonage , a VOIP phone service that works over a cable or DSL connection. It doesn't involve a computer or weird phone/headset on your end, just your regular phone. Your home phone(s) plug into a small box, which in turn plugs into your Internet router/firewall, and everything works essentially the same as before (no 911 service, and 11-digit dialing even for local calls are the biggest differences). Usually people switch for the US pricing, which runs from $20 for 500 minutes local/long distance + $0.039/min after that, to $40 for unlimited local/long distance. (Remember this bill can replace both your long distance and local phone company bills.) But they've got great international rates, too. Their Banglore rate is only okay, $0.24/min, vs. a low of $0.17 via speedypin (although Vonage wouldn't have any extra weekly or per-call fees). I you sign up, make sure to get a referral from someone; it gets $40 off the bill of both the referrer and referree.

My "good" coat--camel's hair--is now 14 years old, and my LL Bean winter jacket is 7 years old, and I don't expect either to run out of steam very soon. They both look good as new. I just sent another "good" coat--green wool--to the thrift shop last month because I figured I never would wear it. I have had it since approx. 1965 or so. Classic style, still perfectly new looking.

We have a Sears, but it's mainly just a catalogue store. They have a few appliances sitting around, although I think they may be just demos. The normal routine is to go up to the counter and study the catalogue and submit an order and then wait for it to arrive from Memphis. > picture window drapes, I'll have decorator figure it out for > me.

I also like looking at aesthetically pleasing things, but what I find aesthetically pleasing is not what I think of as interior-decorator-created designs. I realize that they, at least if they're any good, are supposed to work with the tastes of the client, of course. Years ago when we moved into some new offices in my department, a friend of mine hired an interior decorator to hers. Being sort of Bonniemaeish in the sense of saying things some people wouldn't say (which I don't necessarily consider negative, let me add), she told me that she had shown the interior decorator my office and that she (the interior decorator) had shaken her head. I found that funny in many ways, one of which being that I loved the way my office looked -- it was much more pleasing to my eyes than was my colleague's office that was arranged by the interior decorator. > You might ask your lunch group if they know about anyone -- > does MSU have a fine arts department? I bet somebody there > might do stuff like that. I'm not sure whether our Art Dept is into that kind of thing. I do think there may be a major in interior decorating in another department. I have a very vague memory of knowing a student who was majoring in it. I can't imagine which dept if not Art, but I really don't think it was Art. Our Art Dept is into studio art (?? -- is that a term -- painting/sculpturing) and computer graphic art. Speaking of our Art Dept, I've sometimes wondered whether some of the Bible Beltish alums or others realize that people get paid by the Art Dept to pose nude in front of classes. For anybody with any knowledge of art, that should be a no-brainer -- as in of course there are such classes with models.

I'm not replacing an existing coat -- I have done without for two years. I try to get two years out of Ana's coats, but I tend to go much longer. She picked out a lime green Mudd brand one this week.

I had a wool coat that my mom bought me for Christmas about 10 or so years ago. The buttons had come off and been resown enough times that the fabric was worn out and the buttons couldn't be repaired anymore. I classified that as worn out and got rid of it a couple years ago, but never replaced it. -- Rita Rouvalis Chapman rouvalis@swbell.net, rita@etext.org http://www.etext.org/~rita From owner-words-l@LISTSERV.UGA.EDU Tue Dec 31 17:55:27 2002 Return-Path: Received: from mailgw.cc.uga.edu (mailgw.cc.uga.edu [128.192.1.101]) by gtoal.com (8.12.6/8.11.6/SuSE Linux 0.5) with ESMTP id gBVNtROu029480 for ; Tue, 31 Dec 2002 17:55:27 -0600 Received: from listserv.cc.uga.edu (128.192.1.75) by mailgw.cc.uga.edu (LSMTP for Windows NT v1.1b) with SMTP id <0.0421AEFF@mailgw.cc.uga.edu>; Tue, 31 Dec 2002 18:49:26 -0500 Received: from LISTSERV.UGA.EDU by LISTSERV.UGA.EDU (LISTSERV-TCP/IP release 1.8d) with spool id 3541807 for WORDS-L@LISTSERV.UGA.EDU; Tue, 31 Dec 2002 18:49:26 -0500 Received: from imf03bis.bellsouth.net (mail203.mail.bellsouth.net [205.152.58.143]) by listserv.cc.uga.edu (8.11.6/8.11.6) with ESMTP id gBVNnPT18511 for ; Tue, 31 Dec 2002 18:49:25 -0500 Received: from maynor.net ([66.156.162.197]) by imf03bis.bellsouth.net (InterMail vM.5.01.04.19 201-253-122-122-119-20020516) with ESMTP id <20021231235114.LCM16398.imf03bis.bellsouth.net@maynor.net> for ; Tue, 31 Dec 2002 18:51:14 -0500 Message-ID: <3E122CFF.B469BDD0@maynor.net> Date: Tue, 31 Dec 2002 17:49:19 -0600 From: Natalie Maynor X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.79 [en] (Windows NT 5.0; U) X-Accept-Language: en MIME-Version: 1.0 To: English Language Discussion Group Subject: Re: Tushar Report, or How I Lost My Virginity References: Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-words-l@LISTSERV.UGA.EDU Status: R "Bethany K.

It would be unlikely that I would find used shoes even if I didn't mind buying used shoes. I'm very in my shoe-shopping. Have I mentioned that I'm not sure about the Haflingers I bought? My previous two pairs of Haflingers were exquisitely comfortable, the leather pair I abandoned in Japan, which became balcony shoes later I was told, and the fabric ones that didn't last as long. But these latest leather ones I'm not so sure about yet. They don't feel as comfortable as my Birkenstocks. > But clothes - hey, what do you think all those assembly line employees do > for fun while they are working??? Blow snot on them? Jerk off on them? Like Tushar, I wash most new clothes before wearing them. But not all. I would of course first wash anything that was going to be with my body -- underwear, socks, nightgowns, stuff like that. Other clothes I sometimes don't. Depends on my gut feeling. Dry-clean-only things, which I don't like to acquire but do have a few of, I go on and wear.

I had wondered about that when giving some of my mother's stuff to the Salvation Army back a long time ago -- when it became clear that she was never again going to wear anything other than nightgowns and bedjackets. Some of the clothes in her closet were expensive gifts from my RRB&SIL, with tags still on them (not price tags -- tags indicating their newness).

But I am especially happy tonight as I sit here listening to the pelting rain. It's not that I am on the don't-invite list, btw. There really isn't much NY's Eve partying among people I know in Starkville. Never has been, although I have been to a couple of such parties. Lots of people are out of town at this time of year (as I have been on many NY's Eves, especially in relatively recent years when my mother and I would talk about whether we'd be able to stay awake until 11:00 to watch Times Square on tv, which we usually didn't). I do have some good NY's Eve memories, though, from way, way back. I had a great NY's Eve party in about the tenth grade. My friend Amanda spent the night, and I still remember her looking out the window the next morning and saying that my parents were out there cleaning up the fireworks debris from the street. One especially great memory is the year I got back to Melbourne (FL) on Dec. 31, after spending the holidays in Jackson, and went to a wonderful party at somebody's house, where the police kept knocking on the door to tell us to hold it down. I remember that we watched the clock after midnight and called various people as it hit midnight farther west, ending with Charlie, our friend who had moved to Mountain View, California, to make titty-pink lightbulbs. That was 3 a.m. for us. Ah youth. I also have a great memory of a NY's Eve in London. I think that must have been the welcoming of '79. Somewhere I have a picture that would document it. And I remember one strange NY's Eve in Starkville when four of us discovered we were all back in town and decided to get together at my house that night (two houses ago), where we got drunk and played Canasta, of all the weird things, and then went wandering out into the town and ended up eating blackeyed peas a little after midnight in an apartment not far from where I later lived. Why am I writing this stuff?? It just started popping out. I know you are all just fascinated beyond word by my exciting life. I just remembered the dancing-with-the-broom-in-front-of-the-fireplace NY's Eve. Won't go into that one now. -- -- Natalie (natalie@maynor.net) From owner-words-l@LISTSERV.UGA.EDU Tue Dec 31 18:15:41 2002 Return-Path: Received: from malibu.cc.uga.edu (malibu.cc.uga.edu [128.192.1.103]) by gtoal.com (8.12.6/8.11.6/SuSE Linux 0.5) with ESMTP id h010FfOu029617 for ; Tue, 31 Dec 2002 18:15:41 -0600 Received: from listserv.cc.uga.edu (128.192.1.75) by malibu.cc.uga.edu (LSMTP for Windows NT v1.1b) with SMTP id <1.0058E00F@malibu.cc.uga.edu>; Tue, 31 Dec 2002 19:09:39 -0500 Received: from LISTSERV.UGA.EDU by LISTSERV.UGA.EDU (LISTSERV-TCP/IP release 1.8d) with spool id 3542267 for WORDS-L@LISTSERV.UGA.EDU; Tue, 31 Dec 2002 19:09:39 -0500 Received: from malibu.cc.uga.edu (malibu.cc.uga.edu [128.192.1.103]) by listserv.cc.uga.edu (8.11.6/8.11.6) with ESMTP id h0109dT20105 for ; Tue, 31 Dec 2002 19:09:39 -0500 Received: from listserv.cc.uga.edu (128.192.1.75) by malibu.cc.uga.edu (LSMTP for Windows NT v1.1b) with SMTP id <2.0058E00E@malibu.cc.uga.edu>; Tue, 31 Dec 2002 19:09:39 -0500 Message-Id: <200301010009.h0109dT20105@listserv.cc.uga.edu> Date: Tue, 31 Dec 2002 19:09:39 -0500 From: Karen Kay Subject: Re: still not about Karen's loss To: WORDS-L@LISTSERV.UGA.EDU Sender: owner-words-l@LISTSERV.UGA.EDU Status: R On Tue, 31 Dec 2002 15:14:17 -0500, bonniev wrote: >>>I'd go to the local thrift stores first. >> >> No way. >>Rita Rouvalis Chapman > >Why not?

I'm not at all sure why I seem to be attracted to the Mediterranean way of life and cooking. Certainly, my genetic and cultural background (as far as I know) of Anglo-Saxon-Norman, i.e, Great Britain, would not suggest that. Then again, most of us probably have roots in the Mediterranean---either north or south shore---and I'm simply a deeper throwback. cwv From owner-words-l@LISTSERV.UGA.EDU Tue Dec 31 19:05:00 2002 Return-Path: Received: from malibu.cc.uga.edu (malibu.cc.uga.edu [128.192.1.103]) by gtoal.com (8.12.6/8.11.6/SuSE Linux 0.5) with ESMTP id h01150Ou030009 for ; Tue, 31 Dec 2002 19:05:00 -0600 Received: from listserv.cc.uga.edu (128.192.1.75) by malibu.cc.uga.edu (LSMTP for Windows NT v1.1b) with SMTP id <2.0058E12E@malibu.cc.uga.edu>; Tue, 31 Dec 2002 19:58:58 -0500 Received: from LISTSERV.UGA.EDU by LISTSERV.UGA.EDU (LISTSERV-TCP/IP release 1.8d) with spool id 3543187 for WORDS-L@LISTSERV.UGA.EDU; Tue, 31 Dec 2002 19:58:58 -0500 Received: from mailgw.cc.uga.edu (mailgw.cc.uga.edu [128.192.1.101]) by listserv.cc.uga.edu (8.11.6/8.11.6) with ESMTP id h010wwT23888 for ; Tue, 31 Dec 2002 19:58:58 -0500 Received: from listserv.cc.uga.edu (128.192.1.75) by mailgw.cc.uga.edu (LSMTP for Windows NT v1.1b) with SMTP id <0.0421B0AC@mailgw.cc.uga.edu>; Tue, 31 Dec 2002 19:58:58 -0500 Message-Id: <200301010058.h010wwT23888@listserv.cc.uga.edu> Date: Tue, 31 Dec 2002 19:58:58 -0500 From: Karen Kay Subject: Re: lurching into the new year To: WORDS-L@LISTSERV.UGA.EDU Sender: owner-words-l@LISTSERV.UGA.EDU Status: R On Tue, 31 Dec 2002 18:07:55 -0600, Natalie Maynor wrote: >I am so very happy not to be going to a .

A friend in CA got a 2nd extension--but that's because her benefits ran out during the two months that CA's unemployment rate was in the top, uh, 2% or 4% of the US. Her husband wasn't eligible for that extension. She's the only person I know who benefited. Hillary's proposed 2nd extension would be more general. I touched base with Daphene today, and she told me that indeed she knows nothing, and she called them and no one is there, so evidently they lied when they said they'd be in the office. Sigh.

Then, Bush passed a 13 week extension that anyone could get if they had exhausted their 26 weeks. Then, if you exhausted the 26 weeks *AND* the 13 weeks, and if you lived in a state that had a high unemployment rate, you could POSSIBLY get a 2nd extension. That eligibility is determined first by the state's unemployment rate, then by your own personal eligibility. So if my friend is still unemployed next year when the new extension passes, she would have had 26 weeks + 13 weeks + 13 weeks state-based extension + 13 weeks Hillary's extension. That's 39+26=65 weeks of unemployment. This is depressing.

It's not his native culture, nor mine, but we seem to be very happy eating in that space. I don't remember if I told this story, and maybe this is mean, I don't know. But I'd talked to my sister about fresh mozzarella and tomato 'salad'. I made this a lot during the summer with tomatoes and greens from my garden and Costco marinated fresh mozzarella. She had eaten this for the first time in Germany, at the home of her former exchange student, and absolutely loved it. Fast forward to my recent visit. She showed me a recipe for tomato-basil-mozzarella salad. I said something like "Well, you don't really need a recipe, you just buy enough tomatoes for the mozzarella you want to eat", and she said that she's not good at estimating. Uh, okay. I mean, it's not like no one is going to eat the leftovers! Now, I would say (and this may be the mean part) that my sister is not a cook, though she provides her family with 3 (quite good) meals/day.

I don't know that I find the event of the New Year all that significant, but I find it easy to remember lots of NY's Eves because it's an easy time to remember somehow. I could have gone on and on with my already-too-long mail about NY's Eves of times past. I have vivid memories of many NY's Eves. I think the first midnight that I have a clear memory of was from when I was about eight and I made my parents promise to wake me up at midnight. They did, and I went out on the front porch and threw a firecracker. But I was very sleepy. I guess I must see some significance to a New Year since I can't imagine not eating black-eyed peas. One year when I was driving the 16-hr drive back to Florida on NY's Day I remember stopping at a convenience store and buying a bag of dried black-eyed peas and eating one of them in my car.

I think it's because you don't wear coats enough. In the Frozen North you live in your winter coat for maybe 6 months of the year. I bought a jacket in CA to wear to Oregon, and it's lasted, uh.... maybe 8 or 9 years. It's way too big for me now and it's starting to fray and get dirty so it can't get clean. (I wear it much more here than I did in CA.) So I'll probably buy another one next year or the year after.

I gather now that you didn't mean that she didn't cook for her family, but only that she wasn't quite up to your standards of culinary expertise. What strikes me as funny is that you somehow think that people who are obsessed with food and cooking are somehow than people who aren't -- i.e., that it is to suggest that somebody isn't. Not everybody has the same interests in life. I'm a National Waterski Association "Expert" -- a la a badge and all that. But I don't think that it would be for me to say that somebody else isn't.

I guess I'm not picky in that respect. That thought might arise if I found myself in a situation of spending time with really obnoxious people or druggies when I'm not one or some other odd situation, but I've never encountered those situations. Also, I'm not sure what "that much time" means.

The colors are green and a nice burgundy red, but I think if I did drapes in either of those it would be overpowering -- and drapes come in so many different styles, that a decorator might know something that would look subtle enough for my tastes -- I don't like a lot or ornamentation (ruffles, poofs, etc.).

When I worked at that last law firm, an interior decorator was in the midst of arranging the office, including my work space. I thought it was all sort of hideous except for the nice built-in cherry bookcases in the owner's office (he filled them with decorator books -- classics in uniform leather binding -- they weren't meant to be touched, but I often snatched something to read during lunch -- after all, I was the only one in the office who could read the volumes that were in Greek -- good heavens that man was pretentious). The decorator stuck fake greenery on top of my desk.

I've always been surprised by what art majors can do -- in Ohio we knew a guy who taught computer graphics who was fantastic with woodwork -- he did a stunning job on his house (he also did matting/framing for extra cash -- he did some framing for us in exchange for some junk we gave him for a big sculpture he was working on). Usually you find out about that sort of thing by word of mouth. I guess if you have an artistic eye and skilled hands, you can do lots of things, not just painting or sculpture. When Ana took pottery last year at the Community College, the hallway in the art building was lined with charcoal nudes of lots of interesting bodies. -- Rita Rouvalis Chapman rouvalis@swbell.net, rita@etext.org http://www.etext.org/~rita From owner-words-l@LISTSERV.UGA.EDU Tue Dec 31 21:30:43 2002 Return-Path: Received: from malibu.cc.uga.edu (malibu.cc.uga.edu [128.192.1.103]) by gtoal.com (8.12.6/8.11.6/SuSE Linux 0.5) with ESMTP id h013UgOu006458 for ; Tue, 31 Dec 2002 21:30:43 -0600 Received: from listserv.cc.uga.edu (128.192.1.75) by malibu.cc.uga.edu (LSMTP for Windows NT v1.1b) with SMTP id <0.0058E453@malibu.cc.uga.edu>; Tue, 31 Dec 2002 22:24:39 -0500 Received: from LISTSERV.UGA.EDU by LISTSERV.UGA.EDU (LISTSERV-TCP/IP release 1.8d) with spool id 3545514 for WORDS-L@LISTSERV.UGA.EDU; Tue, 31 Dec 2002 22:24:39 -0500 Received: from pink.rahul.net (IDENT:vzfWAsnLw1kafUcGAGax7FLm2hk60UkL@pink.rahul.net [66.237.72.7]) by listserv.cc.uga.edu (8.11.6/8.11.6) with ESMTP id h013EdT32097 for ; Tue, 31 Dec 2002 22:14:39 -0500 Received: from mauve.rahul.net (mauve.rahul.net [192.160.13.69]) by pink.rahul.net (Postfix) with ESMTP id BFF992FE53 for ; Tue, 31 Dec 2002 19:14:36 -0800 (PST) Received: from yellow.rahul.net (yellow.rahul.net [192.160.13.18]) by mauve.rahul.net (Postfix) with ESMTP id 115DE2BC45 for ; Tue, 31 Dec 2002 18:56:50 -0800 (PST) Received: by yellow.rahul.net (Postfix, from userid 2781) id AFE347CB2; Tue, 31 Dec 2002 12:24:04 -0800 (PST) Subject: Re: Then they came for...

There were bookcases with beautiful old and real books -- as in they were clearly used (by whom I don't know). Nothing fakey-looking about them. This funeral home is . There are zillions of other funeral homes in Jackson now, but Old Jackson people would never consider using any of them. Gosh, that sounds snobby. Maybe it is. It wasn't really meant that way. But then why is snobby? It isn't really. It's more about tradition, going back a long way, things like that. The bishop who did the service said that it was the first time in a long time he had done one in "this old part" of the cemetery -- that he didn't know that there were any spaces left in the old part. But yes. Mine is there also, although I plan for it to be ashes only. I'm sitting here pondering my attitudes toward Old Jackson in relation to my scorn of things like the DAR and Colonial Dames, both of which I'm eligible for but both of which I find silly. My attitude has always been who cares whether your ancesters were here at X time.
