When the minister asked if I would take him as my husband and I said, "I do". I should have said "No effing way" and run from the church like Elaine did.

Hank Stamper from Ken Kesey's "Sometimes a Great Notion". Kesey had a way with creating such sexy and full blooded men in a way Hemmingway never could. And, as an aside, I really loved Kesey's writing.

But what if you're gay? Do they not tell if they're mandated to serve? And what a stupid question about the current system. It has always been inequal: poor kids sign up, rich kids go to college. And question for the Libertarian: Why are you for it when your whole philosophy is not having the government interfere with individual choices? That's all I have to say.

Sadly, this question is more important than stopping with friends. My sister and I were, gasp, Democrats!!!.

She has now become,from her influence with her husband,so rightwing that even Ronald Reagan would raise his eyebrows. It's hard for me to talk to her since I believe in rights for all and she only thinks white men with money have any say. I won't even commenthow she now perceives women, although she herself is one.

Boneless/skinless chicken marinated in low-fat Italian dressing grilled
Couscous cooked in homemade lowfat chicken stock with carrot pieces and black pepper
Big salad with lots of lettuce, cukes, celery, tomatoes with homemade dressing
Huge brownie or a piece of cake, made from scratch of course
All done in under an hour except for the time decorating the cake with butter cream icing

I would eat lobster,king crab legs with butter/lemon; sea scallops with sea water; fried fish and chips with lemon/tarter sauce and ketchup followed by a grilled cheese sandwich and a blond brownie. All consumed with a gallon of milk.

The worst advice I ever got was from my mother. She said,"Take French instead of Spanish." I live in the US. My mother spent hours screaming at me because I wasn't good at French. I still cannot speak French and I wish I had learned Spanish.

"Vitalis Dry Control" with Pete Maravich commercials.

It's the time of the year when I cancel the Internet for a couple of months. I just want to wish all of you a safe and wonderful summer. See you in the fall. I love you all and miss you already! Take care everyone, Gatorgal

A kitten. There is nothing more perfect on God's earth than a kitten. Puppies are close seconds.

Talking Heads

NOTHING!

Yes, I converted to the faith "I will not put my kids through all the crap I had to go through as a child". We discuss every religion and many branches within so they have some ideas when they they want dabble, try, decide.

I'm a huge Who fan. In 1993 I had to be the 3rd caller on a radio station when they played something by them. I was. I won a CD of "Tommy", a video of the movie and a 3 night 4 day trip to NYC to see it on Broadway! We stayed at the Hilton Towers overlooking Central Park. We had orchestra seats and it was fantastic. And since that was only 4 hours out of our stay we had all this time to play in one of the greatest cities in the world. What a wonderful trip. And so many different agencies donated, nothing put us over the mark and we didn't have to pay any taxes on it. This is my only winning, but it was perfect.

The 1960's. In that decade the Civil Rights emerged, the questioning of an unjust war emerged, the questioning of male/female roles emerged. Plus there was the greatest music ever made in modern times. And you young ladies today, you can thank the brief clothes you wear to all those midriffs that daring young women wore then. We have a lot to thank them for.

Grilled cheese and tomato soup

NOTHING where I live. All the takeout food is nasty here. If the liquor stores did drive up or delivery, I might consider takeout.

Can I use my native tongue? The F bomb is always great.

"Oy veh"

Eh? It's Canadian.
