Hi Everybody!!   *Lis Waves*

Adrian/LF just called me again and he is doing okay.
Adjustments are taking some time, but he'll overcome them.

He forgot and left all of his names with snail addresses
back in California "somewhere".... So, I am collecting
addresses from all who will be wanting him to write.

Would you please EMAIL your information to me personnally
so I won't miss any of them....I don't always get all the
posts via the net.   My email address is

  	lisad@dynamo.ecn.purdue.edu

Once again, Please email me your address for Adrian
as soon as possible .... I can tell he really misses all
of us and I would like to get this list to him immediately.

Thank you!!   Have a great Labor Day Weekend!!   :-)

Whoa!  Were did *that* come from?  Ok, lets address this issue here.
Yes, if you let your little head do all the thinking, you are going to
get into trouble.  But can you deny that if you see a good looking
woman, or man for you gals, walk by, that you don't let your eyes
linger just a little bit longer that if you 3rd grade teacher walked
by?  I for one can not, not now, not ever...

The 'atrocities' that men have inflicted on women for lo these many
years used to be accepted norms of behavior.  It has only been in our
'enlightened' age that these have come out.  Do you think that it is
an atrocity for muslam women to have to be totally covered in the
broiling heat of the desert?

Anyway I just wanted to play alittle devils advocate here, it's so
much fun!  Besides, I think the basis of most atrocities against a
group of peopls is not based on sexuality, or lack thereof, it just
would not have the strength to last very long....

>       But then, I didn't really think that your answer was serious

No, the answer was serious, just not to the extreme that it was

In order to lighten the thoughts of those who are
thinking about Hurricane Andrew - a couple of funny
thoughts that I heard over the weekend.

First off - drieux's mom called, and intimated that
he was being a BIT too rough down there, but that it
rather figured the first, and worst, storm of the season
would get named after him.  Then his housemate Andy 
called and we've decided that it really was BOTH of
them at their worst...

Second - I was watching that political satirist on
PBS last night (can't remember his name - he stands
in the middle of a circular stage with a piano...).
His comment was: They are saying that Hurricane
Andrew is showing a FEROCIOUS display of temper -
(two beat pause)
Of course, that has happened AFTER he broke up with
Hurricane Fergie.

Oh, simple. 
Just insert it in the local drive (you may have to cut it in pieces 
to fit 3.5", but that's allright. It can be reassembled later).
Then tar and uuencode it and you have a perfect mailable file.

Well, another procedure would be melting (like I'm doing right now

There you have some! Enjoy, it's swiss chocolate!

No problem.  I know how it feels to be lonely, we all do, but you are

I'm just empathizing with my friend John.  He wishes very much
