Pies are done, by the way. I'll be working my domestic goddess skills preparing other tasty dishes today!

Let me check with Amazon and see if his books come with children's illustrations. Maybe Santa can bring you a coloring book and crayons for Christmas!

Magnetizing and riveting gave me an idea of what to expect!

Actually, the modifications are visually reminiscent of tribal scarification.

This is one of those interesting conundrums. Certainly one should not be discriminated against for any reason, but one cannot compare self-modification with naturally occurring differences, a very specious argument.

Also, when fighting for the right to look as one wishes, one must then grant the right to others (a corporation, for example) to look as it wishes and if it wishes to be seen in all its buttoned down, suited, conservative blandness...well so be it.

The word 'discrimination' is a handy tool to manipulate circumstances and people because of the guilt factor. When misused to satisfy personal agendas it dilutes the impact of those efforts to fight discrimination that causes much deeper harm in the greater scheme of things than being unacceptable in a particular job because you will bring extreme and sudden unbalance into the existing culture.

IS THIS THE STORY THATS IN BOORTZ THAT YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT INDYFELLA ?

I DID'NT SEE ANY PHOTO'S WITH IT THOUGH ??




You won't believe this one. A 13-year-old girl commits suicide. Why? Because she was receiving cruel messages over the Internet. It seems that Megan developed an Internet relationship with a boy. When the boy ended the relationship she hanged herself. Later we find out that there was no boy at all. The boy was actually the mother of a friend of Megan's with whom she had had a falling out. The mother of Megan's friend wanted to find out what Megan was saying about her daughter on the Internet ... so she posed as a boy to create the relationship. She then sent the 13-year-old a message telling her the world would be better off without her. Amazing.

His program notes change daily. You might be able to go thru his archives. He has one there somewhere.

Hope that helps!
