Now John, you should know better than that.  And it's not just because
I got to meet Jane Russell once when I was a wee little tyke (I went
to elementary school with her neice Heidi; Aunt Jane came by one day
when I was at Heidi's house after school; I was *thrilled* to pieces),
but Jane Russell could be *faaaabulous*.  You've never seen a slutty
outfit until you've seen Jane Russell's big showgirl outfit in
"The French Line".  It makes Madonna's cone-tit outfit look like
something from off the rack in the Cheryl Tiegs boutique at Sear's.

This reminds me of something from the first week of college (and I guess has me
somewhat in agreement with Donald this time, although, somehow, I suspect that
won't last).  Several of us from the dorm were sitting on one guy's bed (no,
folks, straight boys!) discussing things.  The topic of troubles came up.  One
of us mentioned a parents' divorce and the pain involved, one of us mentioned a
parent's death by suicide, and one mentioned something I don't remember.  The last
boy, had to think for a minute and then said something like:

I remember when we didn't have as much money as we do now and could not do certain
things (not exactly what he said, but the gist).

Some people do live lives that have very little, if any, pain in them.  This 
conversation has stuck with me over the years.

No, actually, it was fresh stuff, or what passes for fresh in New
England.  But there was cilantro in the pasta dough and there was
cilantro in the chicken w/cream sauce served along with it.  This was a
recipie from that Cuisinard food magazine which was popular in the
early 80's.  I think there was just _too much_ of the stuff, and little
else.  It was a single flavor-note, blaring.  I was amazed at how well
bred my guests were; not a word from them.

I'm not ordinarily a cilantro-phobe, nor do I think it tastes like soap most of the time.

I heard recently that a high school someone has come up with a new

hall.  The malefactors aren't allowed to talk or study - they have to
listen.  Apparently it's an effective punishment (it certainly would be for
