Sorta makes a boy wonder why librarians have never been widely
acknowledged as the legitimate and indisputable rulers of the
world

,
ainna?


* *I can't speak for Claspy,


Oh, hell, it's not like he's here to controvert anything you
say.....go ahead!


* *Oh, OK... and he's just a reference liberrian, so he doesn't reall

y
count anyway.


but I've known that for a long time.


And here's me thinking that the whole point of possessing
librarianistic knowledgeship is to share with the lesser beings.
sigh


* *I try to as much as I can.


More than should be (or has been, tradionally) expected of any
reasoanble being.....by any reasonable being.


But around the house I just get Carol
telling me, "You know more useless facts than anyone I know".


Useless facts is a lot like trivia. *Which is to say, they ain't no
such thing.....they's only piquant knowledge in search of context.


* *What's a boy to do?


* * * Chuck Vance (who knows that with that awesome power comes

*huge
responsibility, but is willing to accept it)


Personally, I've always felt that one should be grateful for what
one can accomplish and maintain a suitable humility with regard to
the rest. *I remain content in the profligate and capricious
exercise of power and ever so willing to leave the responsibility
to those who manifestly do such a superlative job with it.


* *Words to live by. *:-)


Well, we lives by words and we dies by words......or maybe not.
Anyway, at the end of the day we lives and we dies.....or so we've
been told.


giles
so, how's things down in old Mexico and all that?


* *Still in Texas, but we should have the house on the market within
3-4 weeks. *Once that's done, it's just a matter of time. *And being

a
gentleman of leisure since the beginning of November, I gots lots of
time. *Carol on the other hand is still working, so she might have a
slightly different view.


Time. *Ah, yes. *We've heard rumors thereof. *Sounds like pretty much
a ****ty deal in the long run. *No one gets out alive and all that.


* *So how's things in Curdistan?


One can always bitch.....hey, it's free.....right?


But the fact is that one is really not inclined to. *Looking out the
window, even sepia is an exotic tint right now, longish after the sun
has set. *But it's late February.....March comes soon.....and after
that revitalization can't be far behind.


Hell, they're already starting to tap the trees.

moron!
