Rashmi, while you were away Rita announced that she and Nico are to be
married on January 10 and will then go to Spain for a honeymoon, leaving Jan 12.

Joan -- is it fair to be envious of the travelers when you've not even exhausted
the resources of one's local museums?  I am, anyway.

Comments: To: words-l@uga.cc.uga.edu

Remember how pleased some of us were a week or so ago about receiving the
letters from Publishers Clearing House saying how close we were to winning
the BIG money? While I *really* didn't believe it was as much of a sure
thing as the letter made it sound, particularly after I heard that several
of us had received them, still there was that little tingle of a "What if...?"
Tonight at a party a friend was telling me that she received *the* letter
last week...and then, yesterday, she received the exact same letter, all
about how the addressee had followed all the necessary steps to be
a winner, etc., etc., and was now in line for the big prizes...and THIS
letter was addressed to her first husband, who died in February, 1985.
Certainly shook my faith...I'm going out tomorrow and buy lottery
tickets...no more magazines for me.

Karen asks:
>Commonly held by WHOM?

The problem with PM's position is that he wants everyone to adopt
*his* standards of piety.  I respect his right to hold whatever
beliefs he chooses and, were I a guest in his house or in the
religious community of which he is a member, I would respect their
beliefs and not insult them.  However, if I do not believe something
to be sacred, then I cannot profane it, nor can I be sacriligious
unless I am operating within the religious community.  I feel certain
that Peter does not adhere to the dietary restrictions of the various
competing spiritual/religious/ethical communities to his brand of
Christianity.  Nor need he; he is not bound to them by profound belief.

I will not, as a matter of common courtesy, seek out his holy places
and defame them; by the same token, if what he considers sacred is
a part of my everyday cultural experience and I do not consider them
sacred, I have no oblication to tret them as though they did.

This is one of the problems w/ affirmative action--companies pat themselves
on the back for hiring women and minorities, while able to get away w/
paying them a lower salary.  But you *know* Steve, that the real source
for this is that women in 'traditionally female' jobs make less than
women in 'traditionally male' jobs.

Frozen Le Sueur peas are like hard little BB's with no remorse. Cooking
them makes them hot litle B's. They suck el maximo.

The canning process adds a lot of salt, which is Good, makes them soft and
mooshy, another Good Thing, and turns them a sort of grayish-green, which

That reminds me of something I heard not long ago about the editor of a
short story anthology who got furious when she discovered that one of the
contributors was male.  She had asked for "stories written from the female
point of view."  A male, who happened to use his initials instead of a full
name, submitted a story from a female point of view.  It was accepted.  Then
he was accused of dishonesty.
