From the home office in Nishnabotna, Missouri it's this week's top ten
list!
Focus: Top ten things we'll never forget about Paul and Craig and
possible outcomes of a war in the Persian gulf.
10. Same old stuff on the 6-oclock news.
9. Skating to work on roller blades.
8. Drawn-out conflict with no clear victor.
7. Crashing calliope by trying to format a floppy.
6. Exiled Kuwaiti government making millions off book rights.
5. That dash is *not* an attempt to emulate the Macintosh desktop.
4. Coup of the Iraqi government.
3. The quote, "Did you ever wonder why MIT requires you to be able
to tread water for 15 minutes before giving you a degree?"
2. Negotiated nonviolent settlement.
And number one:
1. Blowing everything away by pressing the wrong buttons.

This week:
I'm back and taking courses!!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Thoughts for the day:
Miracles *DO* happen!!
This week, I labled and organized all the pictures that I took over
the past 10 years. The surviving pictures (the rejects are in the
circular-file) are happily living in photo albums (instead of mixed up
in a cardboard box). The funny thing is that this would not have been
accomplished without 10.001.... I needed *something* to do during the
first day or so of lectures!! (since then, I only show up for the
morning lecture to get announcements and read Pride and Prejudice)
Today's secret word is hong.
hong \'ha:n, 'ho.n\ n [Chin (Cant) ho-ng] : a commercial establishment or
house of foreign trade in China
