4. Rules to live
and grow by—instead of increase
Always remember
that the ass you kick today may be the one you'll
have to kiss tomorrow. Credit JMW.
"Our vegetable
love should grow Vaster than empires, and more
slow"
Remember:Time
tends to blur one's own indiscretions while bringing
those of others into clear relief—Nancy Harwood
Not the truth says
The Bork. My own discretions remain of interest
to me long after I've forgotten who else did what with who else
when.
5. Congratulations
go out to Ben and Lisa for their new jobs. You go
Meebers! Birthday greetings to Alec, and a new job for Karen, too.
6. Karstenization
continues: Verdant, Adam, steph, rashmi?, hope.
Harwell asked: Okay,
what does karstenized mean?
karsten: It's like
One-Hour Martinizing, only it usually lasts
longer than an hour and there's no Martin involved...
Karen: Longer than
an hour?!
7. Truth or consequences:
"I've never denied being a sneaky sonuvabitch".
Jim Farrell
8. Ken Miller—Web
Potentate, Web Poobah Presumptive, Web Pot, Web Poo,
Boo, Web Poo. Whatever. You the man! The wallpaper man, too.
9. Wordslers at work
and play: It's termite swarming season now, too.
Between the Mexican smoke and the Formosan termites, I can barely
find my way around.
Must dash, I'm off
to sell a kidney to buy a boat. —Richard
10. The Chairman—What
a ride it was! He was always there. The voice of
Frank Sinatra lives on and the teeth of wordslers fall out.
11. Interesting information
noted by wordslers:
Espen discovered
that "Americans" (the pleural) In Hungarian is
"amerikaiak".
*I* don't have snot.
—aht
12. Nice Wordslers
of the week—
Yeah, Bookrat: quit
talking so goddamn cryptically.
DFW/M, BWP!
Why can't you just
leave me along?
I think I hate you.
TS # 75,000: Number
