if anyone sees this, then i can post to soc.motss from out BBS, even if i can't
quite read it yet (feed still isn't quite working; i'm getting all that awful
Survey thread tho...).

and because jim says that one shoudl ALWAYS make a test message worth the
trouble of reading it: katy started kindergarten today!  i took most of a
24-exposure roll of film of her in her first-day-of-school outfit, a terribly
traditional palid wool skirt, white blouse, tights and black shoes.  she was so
cute and so excited.  i spent half an hour after she left just sitting there
saying, "my baby!  i just put my baby on a school bus!"  and i spent my after
noon, once i could settle down to doing anything, washing dishes and cleaning
house.  i feel like SUCH a mom...

i fixed her a special dinner, her choice of menu: hot & sour soup, papadums,
chutney, and yellow cake with chocoalte frosting for dessert.  i dyed some
coconut green, borrowed her Matchbox school bus, and decorateed the cake like a
school bus driving down a road through green fields.  it was cute if i do say
so myself.

this is an AWFULLY domestic sort of post, but that's where i'm at today.  katy
started school.  wow.

Hi, right back at you, Bob.

The real question to my way of thinking is how long is it

Couldn't it still be a learned behavior?  Perhaps people
from a very diverse range of cultures, presented with their
local traditions for intimate interactions between the
sexes, might readily use those traditions as the basis for
intimate interactions with their own sex.

>(Having a shower and some privacy was a very big deal.)

I asked a Chinese friend about this privacy and shower
business.  In the major cities, space is at an enormous
premium, and privacy is very hard to come by.  Much bathing
is accomplished at public baths.  He said the idea of
endless *hot* water would be very appealing to many Chinese,
especially in the crowded urban centers where resources are
scarce.

>It was considered rude if you didn't shower with your guest.

This, he said, he didn't understand at all.  He thought it
would be very odd -- very odd indeed -- to expect a host
to shower *with* a guest.

Be that as it may, I must say the idea of having relatively
luxurious accoutrements in Beijing or Shanghai and a supply
of willing and suitable men who would insist upon my
showering with them sounds fairly close to *heaven*!

The thing that scares me about this search for a "biological explanation of homosexuality"
is the possiblity that if/when they do actually *find* one - research money will be diverted

I don't know which is worse - condeming me for my choices, or tsk-tsk'ing me about

Either you're being intentionally picayune, or your don't

Certainly, "sweet" pickle relish isn't anywhere near the level
of sugary sweetness of the jelly or chocolate that Jess was

There are a lot of these books   "Catch Me a Colobus", "Rosie and

"Fillets of Plaice" was named by Lawrence Durrell as a takeoff on
"Spirit of Place".

Lawrence also wrote some really great books about the Med.  "Bitter
Lemons" is about Cyprus and is just fascinating, although they keep
categorizing it as a travel book and it just plain isn't.

Gerald has a zoo on Jersey, dedicated to preserving rare and

I've heard that this milking is what foreskinned people do,
while standard procedure for the unhooded is a few shakes
(more than three means you're wanking).
Then there's always the fingernail fillip,

Talk about stocks, whatever happened to Micsft?  As far as I remember
Microsoft stock price used to be around 100 or so a few months ago, but
now it's down to 70 something. ....or did I mistake Micsft stock with
a stock price of some other company I was also looking at.

What hypocrisy?  I see a simple disagreement.  Arne disapproves of their

Assimilationism from the weak is also a trait of human behavior.  I
see where you have gone to great lengths to grasp onto that one.
You seem to have this Pavlovian need to be 'liked' by straight society
and to hide from 'those others'.  Why don't you just hide from us.

Translation: go away, phobe-wanna-be.

You are a True Idjit (pat. pend.).  I think it is about time to refer
to said True Idjit as B*b (or is that B**b) S*rv*r.

You are a truly disgusting individual, Sarver.  Do us all a favor and
buy a life, I doubt if you will ever create one for yourself.

And as long as we are on sound bites...  My three year old niece has a
better grasp of individualism and the need to embracing diversity when she
says "Why do people hide who they are?  It can't be very much fun.".

don't go away mad, just go away.

Believe it or not, when I was 23 (I could pick quite a
number of different years, actually), I had two or three
times as much sex on any one *day* as I've had in the last
three *years*.  Now this is quite literally true, I'm
getting it on more than 1000x less frequently than I did
from the time I was 16 until I was 43 (yes, the *whole*
time). 

Btw, this is anything but a complaint.  The "there's hope"
remark was a jest.
