    So when I was at the doctor, I was leafing through a "Star" magazine, and there is an article about swim suit bodies (great self-esteem reading).

    Anyway, they have a picture in there of Lance Armstrong as "Best Athletic Body" (I ripped the page out) - he has a bit of a GUT!!! He's not fat, but boy is he a heck of a lot bigger than he was last year at this time!!

    Nanci - I knew Koko and Buttercup - I was thinking of the one in the yard (cracker chicken - boy was I way off).

    We are so prolific with the posts, I skipped over a bunch. Yikes!

    My C in grad school (we won't talk about undergrad) was in Philosophy of Science. I was forced to take it, as I was getting a "doctor of philosophy" degree. I like Ph.D. better. Philosophy and I do not mix. I especially did not mix with the squirt of an instructor. He did not like the fact that I challenged the ideas he was presenting. Aren't you supposed to discuss things in a philosophy class? It was not a positive experience. No alcohol involved for me, just divorce, being stalked, and a hint of stuborness on my part.

    MP, you can ride a Vespa if you have a phalanyx (I know that's not spelled correctly, is it even USED correctly?) of TE riders encircling you so that no stupid vehicles hit you--that's the problem. Not you. Them.

    Blech- that was a waste of time.

    I came back in to look for consolation prizes. I have one, but not the (unclaimed) other.

    Going back out now.

    Maybe "swarm" would work.

    nanci,

    most people who type G-d or G*d are not doing it so as not to offend others. Many Jews do not type or write the name of God because there is an rule in the old testament that the name of God should never be erased or desecrated. So if they type G-d and then the post gets deleted they are not in violation. From a Jewish faq that says it better than I can:

    Judaism does not prohibit writing the Name of God per se; it prohibits only erasing or defacing a Name of God. However, observant Jews avoid writing any Name of God casually because of the risk that the written Name might later be defaced, obliterated or destroyed accidentally or by one who does not know better.

    Ok, I'm not going to nap but to install the new saddles (Selle Italia SLR Gel Flows) on both of our bikes so we can go for a test ride when my sweetie comes back from work. Will report in either Favorite Saddles or Least Favorite Saddles imminently.
