I'm trying to get caught up on the weekend mail (I was in Los Angeles
for a wedding - and it was wonderful - the wedding, not Los
Angeles!).  I usually try to read it all first, since often later
posts make a comment or point I would have made, thus making any
reply from me unnecessary.

However, in the case of the words-l tshirt, I cannot wait - I want
one!

I knew Karen was an angel (not just any angel, mind you!), but, for
volunteering, I think Anne and Rashmi may just have to get promoted
to angel, too (although there *is* only one List Angel).  How can *I*
promote anyone to angel, you may ask?  Too bad, there is no answer; I
just did it. ;-P

Thanks, guys!

To me, "cluster" means in a single syllable, not spread over two.  But the
sequential constraint involving /s/ + /p//t//k/ operates at the beginning
of a syllable only.  These sounds can cluster with other consonants at ends
of syllables.

 Tushar the *intent* of the first sticker is not to elicit humor, but to
show pride in a child's accomplisments.  The *intent* of the second
sticker is probably to elicit humor, but what is does instead - in my
opinion - is make me think that (1) the child of the person putting the
sticker on his/her truck is not doing well in school and (2) the parent has
neither any respect for education nor has he/she instilled any in the child.

Hmm.  I just got my first catalog from Ken Nolan Inc. - "33 Years of
Service to Military, Civilian, Gov't Procurement, Law Enforcement".
Perhaps they think all CA residents will now be interested in this
stuff after the recent "civil unrest".  My catalog doesn't mention
any CA shipping restrictions for anything other than the gas sprays,
but I don't see any body armor, either.

How many other people do this?  I've ordered stuff many times just to
see what would arrive in my mailbox next.

I tend to use different middle initials, street abbreviations, etc.
for different magazines and orders so I can follow the mailing lists.
I can just imagine the confusion I cause the mailing list people when
they compare lists and discover I subscribe to both National Review
and On Our Backs (or both Liberty and Utne Reader, for that matter).

So what should I get?  I refuse to order the MREs.

Speaking of registration, Tushar's Natalie creation, etc., I thought about
something the other day that some of you might find as interesting as I
did:  would it be legal to take a course from yourself?  I had been
thinking that maybe I should get some ESL credentials (by taking the
block of courses our department offers for ESL "certification" or whatever
it's called) so that maybe someday I can find a job teaching ESL in some
exotic place.  Then it occurred to me that I teach some of the courses
in that block.  As far as I know, there's nothing in the registration
process that would prevent me from registering for my own course.  But
would I be kicked out of school for cheating if I saw copies of the tests
in advance?

I had a similar experience in Bamberg, Germany.  A woman said something
to me that I didn't understand since I don't speak German, but I could
tell by her expression that it was something important and something
involving my clothes.  I then discovered that I had just walked up the
street from my hotel to where I was standing at that point with the back
of my skirt tucked into my underwear.  I was not wearing a slip.   I felt
sort of like the man I saw in London whose pants were pulled off by the
