Mmm.  I dunno.

The current migration reminds me of the hopeless desperate mass of
plague-ridden Medieval Europeans well-meaningly stampeding in the direction
of somewhere the (throat) culture hasn't gotten to yet.

We carry the contagion in our minds, but mistakenly believe it is
in our surroundings, and that departure can cure us.

Date: 23 Jan 93 04:52:23 GMT
Organization: Lehigh University


    We all went to see the preacher, ma and pa and me and my little brother,
on that hot Sunday afternoon.  He was visiting from... well, hell, we weren't
really sure.  But he sounded like he knew what he was talking about.  "My
friends," he drawled, with arms wide, "look not to the works of earth.  God
has no concern for such things.  Ya figger, with a universe as big as it is,
why should he work with the one little planet?  His Word is not of the Earth,
but of the space around it."
    There was general buzzing in the crowd, and even my little brother,
barefoot and unwashed, was stirred.
    "Look to the heavens for signs," the preacher continued.  "Boulders and
meteors and shooting stars.  For they are truly the words of God."
    I heard Pa let out an "Amen" under his breath, and Ma was moved as well.
    "These objects shape our world!  They tell us the Truth, they tell us the
Way, and my friends, we must hear the call!"  And on these words, the
preacher's assistants heaved a bag onto the stage.  "Yes, my brothers and
sisters, for just $19.95 you can own your very own piece of the Lord!"  And he
reached into the bag, pulling out one of the tiny rocks it held.  "The Word of
the Creator in your very own home!"
    As perfect as it would have been, no meteor came at that moment to strike
the preacher dead.  No, he got the money from Pa, and we got a first rate
bonified meteorite with a no-money-back guarantee.  It found its way into my
brother's slingshot soon after, and we lost our piece of the Lord.  He thinks
it was just a regular old rock, though, and he's pretty smart for being so
unclean.

Organization: t.b

     Well, one good piercing story deserves another.

     Back in '74 or so, long before it was cool to
have an earring, one of my friends had one and
another decided it sounded like a cool idea.  So
four or five of us had a piercing party for him.

     The plan was for him to drink Scotch to the
point where he couldn't feel any pain, then hold
an ice cube to his earlobe for five minutes, then
pierce it.

     We all proceeded to get drunk as hell, and
after awhile it came time for the magic moment.
The piercee at that point began to hem and haw,
at which point I in my best drunken bravado said,
"Well hell, do me instead!"

     So, I held an icecube to *my* earlobe for
five minutes, and my experienced friend who already
had an earring grabbed a big needle, selected
a spot as near to where an earring should go as
he could considering his drunken state (which
turned out to be not very near), and poked the
needle through.

     I proceeded to bleed like a stuck pig.  My
friend said, "Wow, I've never seen anyone bleed
like *that* before."

     He then put in a gold stud which I wore for
a year or two whenever I felt in the mood to get
called a faggot.  Eventually I got bored with it
to the point where I wore it too infrequently
and the hole closed up.

     Quite a few years later earrings came into
vogue, but it was too late for me.

In Sea-Tac a large woman cut in front of me in line at the Starbuck's
counter and ordered a double tall mocha with lots of whipped cream.
I smirked at her, and ordered a triple espresso macchiato.

The bathroom on a Dash-8 is really too small.

In the Portland airport, the speakers in the ceiling, for no
apparent reason, thanked us for observing these regulations.
Repeatedly.

After an hour in my meeting, I had to fight an almost overpowering
urge to stand and croon "Please release me".

Excellent prawns in black bean sauce for lunch.

Invented a new alphabet during the afternoon session of the meeting
and amused myself by taking notes in it.

There's no decent beer at the Portland airport. Why do they think
they can charge people four bucks for a pint of Budweiser and not
be risking their lives? No wonder the bars are all past the security
checkpoint.

This is a warning.

This has gone far enough.

I have somewhere here on the top of my desk the lyrics
to "Fah Who Four-eyes" from the TV adaptation of Dr. Seuss's
"The Grinch who Stole Christmas", and I will post it if
necessary, accompanied by the lyrics to "Illinois Loyalty",
"Bow Down to Washington", "Mighty Oregon", and "On Wisconsin",
and various other stupid college songs, which can all be
classified as truly bizarre but extremely tiresome.

I am prepared to go so far as to post the English lyrics to
"O Canada".

After that, the Collected Works of Barry Manilow.
