Gee, I hadn't noticed.  You, for instance, never seem to understand a word

You're coming out with random thoughts again, Tushie.  But then, we've come

Well, we already know that you *are*, so either it takes one to know one, or
in this case maybe it takes one to see everyone else thinking the same way
he does.  There is always method to the madness of a Random Wierdness 
Generator; it just takes a certain brand of literacy combined with a dollop
of insanity to comprehend it.  You seem to lack the former.

Well, so much for being able to lurk the party ... the links between

In the 4th quarter, the Lambs failed to convert on 4th and goal from the

For those crones, and those about to be, Germaine Greer has a new book
out called "The Change: Women, Aging and the Menopause".  It' s reviewed
in the January, 1993 Women's Review of Books.  I recommend this review
to anyone interested in women's issues.  They do some strange PC things
(they trashed a friend of mine because she isn't black but they thought
she was), but overall it's quite worthwhile.

There's another review I can't wait to read on a book call "Discrimin
ination by Design: A Feminist Critique of the Man-Made Environment".  I
guess I'll read it on the plane.

UGA or some links must be down because I haven't seen any words-l since
Peter's one-liners when I first got up.  Hmmm....and tomorrow my machine

I'll check on the shade of red of the Under The Suns as soon as possible.
What colors are there besides red and green?  I do know that red ones
exist.  Interestingly, a friend who is visiting here from Washington state
right now told me yesterday that she knows somebody there who is about to
buy a red Honda Civic del Sol.  Her friend has test-driven one, loved it,
and said that the semi-convertible opening is covered by a hard top that

   It depends on the job; I'd love to get into broadcast journalism someday,
   but which my looks and voice, I'll be VERY lucky if it ever comes to pass.
    In general though, you are right in that it's worse for women than men.  

   However, like I originally said, I never denied that at-work harrassment
   is a very serious problem.  My biggest problem is with the thought that
   on-the-street annoyances are really that serious a social problem when
   compared to what the same women gain in many other areas of society.

In response to the last para: your view of the problem is naive.  Those
catcalls and "on-the-street annoyances" demonstrate how deeply ingrained
"that kind of thinking" is.  Yes, it's simple enough to ignore, or even
whistle/catcall back, but the underlying fact remains--much (if not most)
of that behavior is based upon stereotype and objectification.  It follows
women off the street and into the workplace; I agree that gains have been
made, but it is too simplistic to lessen the importance of the underlying
implications of "on-the-street annoyances".

   PLACE:
	   Either Joans's home in Newton or my apartment in Cambridge --
   whichever the most people prefer.  Joan has the advantage of a bigger
   and better furnished place, while mine is more easily accessible since
   I'm only a block from the Central Square T stop.  You decide.


Either place--why don't we decide based upon the number of people who
respond?  Please take this post as an affirmative.  Plus, how are you
deciding who should bring what...

It is, it is.  I'm just not sure what's in it.:-)  It's a side dish, if
you know what that is.  I'm really familiar with the Jamaican version, so
any recipe details I could give.....

Wait a sec...cook book, cook book, where did you go book......


GOTCHA!  The version in this book calls for turkey or chicken gizzards, 
chicken duck or turkey livers, sausage or bacon drippings, onions, green pepper
[bell pepper, not hot] garlic, chicken broth, black and cayenne pepper,
parsley, green onions, and of course white rice.

Does that help?  You'd rather not have known?   Too bad.:-)
