Do Not Adjust Your Dial
"Put down that mouse and go upstairs and pour some kibble into bowls. Do <I>not</I> stop to watch TV. Do it now!"
Dylan (Black Elk II) Speaks
I love Bob Dylan: the man, the music, the whole enchilada. I even like the endless tour, (currently playing triple A ballparks), which he seems determined to continue on until, to use that famous line from <I>Midnight Cowboy</I>, he "dies on the stage."
With Three Zs
I've been working on the Buyer's Guide all day long. It's a drag. Zzz. If I was Elizabeth (we're now calling her "Lizzzie," by the way), I might let my hair loose and kick something.
Have A Cuppa Tea
Tea in the morning, tea in the evening, tea at supper
time,<BR>
You get tea when it's raining, tea when it's snowing.<BR>
Tea when the weather's fine,<BR>
You get tea as a mid-day stimulant<BR>
You get tea with your afternoon tea<BR>
For any old ailment or disease<BR>
For Christ sake have a cuppa tea.

Get Ready to Feel Old
Beloit College publishes a "mindset" memo at the beginning of each year that reminds teachers that the new students don't have the same cultural references we oldsters do.
How About a Name for This?
Todd came over the other night. He always comes with a surprise. On this night, his surprise was a rough mix of the John Atkinson-recorded Multi-Purpose Solution album, <i>In Bed</i>.
The Cocktail Party Problem
No, not whether to have that extra martini, but rather how to isolate one voice out of the cacophony.
A Wonderful Essay on Encyclopedias
Well, actually on the 11th edition of the <I>Encyclopedia Britannica</I>, which is a delightful yard or so of bookspace. I used to have this edition, although I didn't realize that many bibliophiles consider it to be <I>the</I> best blend of fact and great writing ever collected. I just read it out of order on many a long winter's night. Somehow, Google just isn't the same.
