Greetings,

I'm addicted to my short-wave radio, on which I listen to English transmissions
from central and eastern Europe, Asia, and, of course, Britain and Canada
(my favorite shows are probably CBC broadcasts like As It Happens).  In
addition, since Steve turned me on to it, I read The Economist.  I must note,
though, that there are very good American periodicals that serve to inform
US citizens about things the mainstream press doesn't cover:  Z, The

Interesting.  Because mass media is named as a major propagator of--
my mind went blank.  Modern Standard Chinese.  Ditto for the decline
in use of dialects by young people in Japan.

A lot of this is pronunciation of words they already know.  (In
Japanese the choice of inflectional morphology is an issue.)

   I'm sorry to hear of your sickness, //Anne//, but I love you anyway.

When it gets to football, my favorite teams are the Raiders and whoever
is playing the Broncos.  Its hard to describe the trauma of moving to BSU,
which is a BIG football school, I-AA style, and has been nationla champs
at that level.   But our colors are blue and orange, and the team is named
the Broncos.

And before anyone claims otherwise, I've done the research....BSU was
blue and orange and Broncos starting in the 1930s.....so the Denver Buttholes
musta copied us.

And yes I cheered against the Broncos the whole 7 years in NM and the
whole 7 years in Colorado.  (NM fans are about half and half between
Dallas and Denver fans)

I guess in this question of ritual vs. ritualistic killings, I would say
that a ritual killing would be something that occurred at a certain time,
as a ritual (such as the killing of the so-called sacrificial king for
harvest-time or some such), and a ritualistic killing would involve
certain actions, forms and props (for instance, being disemboweled in a
certain order, only after certain sigils were inscribed and only by
someone in a black robe surrounded by 46 white candles or something like
that).

Lovely thought, isn't it?

By the way, are these voudoun killings in your murder mystery being
performed by the real folk, or are these self-styled magicians?  Just
curious...

I agree that there is a place for rudeness in this world, places like

Ah, God bless Pat, defender of the family and a view of the world that
predates Vatican II by about 300 years.  Odd that he sees nothing
amiss in having grown up under the tutelage of a father for whom the
primary family value was beating the shit out of his sons just to keep
them in line, and whose major civic value was supporting Franco during
the Spanish Civil War.

facts of ze trip.


Top Ten Highlights of ONE BBScon.

10.  Colorado itself.  I loved it and can't wait to go back.  Anne, how
did you ever leave?  We all suffered incredible headaches the first day
from the thin air, but I just loved the place.

9.   Former president (and founder) of Teradyne, a true ageing hippy,
having an intense discussion with me about his sexually oriented BBS
and how he thinks the feds are trying to frame him (I ain't paranoid,
but there's a good chance he's right).

8.   The roses Nico had delivered to my room ;).

7.   Doing some down-and-dirty networking with the few women in attendance
and plotting seditious acts.

6.   Realizing that Denver has some sort of Bimbo magnet ineffective on
those of us with a brain cell to share.  Really, it was quite amazing.

5.   A decent to good Chinese restaurant.

4.   Watching the sunsets over the mountains.

3.   Plotting mischief for CFPIII!!!!!

2.   Eating Buffalo Meatloaf and Sweet Cornbread for the first time
at the Rocky Mountain Cafe.  The fresh limeade was also delicious, and
they even had Rocky Mountain Oysters on the level.  Many thanks go
to the wordslers who clued me in on what these were as I appeared smart

1.   Belting out "You've Lost that Loving Feeling" friday night on the
sidewalk in what I think was some sort of market/night district in
Denver (sorta like Quincy Market here) with Shari (EFF staff lawyer),
Gerard (director of comms, and me boss), and Brad Templeton (owns
ClariNet, but is probably better known for rec.humor.funny).  Yes,
folks stared, but we were tourists, so we didn't care.  No, we hadn't
been drinking.
