rlcarr (Richard L. Carreiro):
[to you-know-who-you-are :-]
My boat sails stormy seas
Battles oceans filled with tears
At last my port's in view
Now that I've discovered you
Oh I'd give my life so lightly
For my gentle lady
Give it freely and completely
To my lady
As life goes drifting by
Like a breeze she'll gently sigh
And slowly bow her head
Then you'll hear her softly cry.
Oh I'd give my life so lightly
For my gentle lady
Give it freely and completely
To my lady
Words that you say when we're alone
Though actions speak louder than words
But all I can say is I love you so
To drive away all my hurt
Oh I'd give my life so lightly
For my gentle lady
Give it freely and completely
To my lady
Set sail towards the sun
Feel the warmth that's just begun
Share each and every dream
They belong to everyone
Oh I'd give my life so lightly
For my gentle lady
Give it freely and completely
To my lady
"For My Lady" (Ray Thomas)

Plan? What plan?
------ Athena hacks for April 1, 1993 ------
Two hacks, one visible (and IMHO neat) and one much less visible.
Hack #1: Changed the names in w20-575 (Student Center public cluster)
from the old w20-575-xxx to w20-<element name> Also, for cases where
elements didn't exist, they substituted other names "dilithium", etc...
Hack #2: Changed the `today` command (in the watchmaker locker) to return
a silly version of the information, as in:
Today is Thursday, the first day of April, nineteen ninety-three. The
big hand is on the twelve and the little hand is on the one. The Moon is
Waxing Gibbous (66% of Full).
------ Phi Delta Theta Social Events for the upcoming weeks ------
Mon April 5: 5:30PM Faculty Dinner (Cocktails @ 5:30, Dinner @ 6PM) (i)
Come have dinner and drinks with Chuck Vest...
Wed April 7: 9:30PM Wed Social (This week is Sushi!!! (Yum!))
Sat April 10: 7:00PM Sat Movie Night (Closed event; (you are invited))
(i) indicates that the event is (roughly) closed and invitations are available.
Other events are "open" to all friends of the house and guests
Any questions, don't call me, call the house number (247-8691) and ask for
Pat Baker or Zack Johnson... Thanks... ---Jim Sokoloff

Theirs Not to Reason Why...
General John A. Wickham Jr., the U.S. Army Chief of Staff, on the
superior quality of today's soldiers: "They are the best in my
thirty-three years of service. They'll fight, and they are as patriotic
as you or I. They follow orders, and they die."

therese (Therese):
We were friends who rode the waves
The time we spent in our younger days
Was all in fun,.. oh the good times that we had.
We were young and it was fine
To feel your spirit as it climbed
There're no regrets
Only good times
We were friends in younger days
Although we went our separate ways
You were my friend, you never turned away
Who can say what life will do
Life is kind to just a few
There're no regrets
Only good times
In time we will grow, we will change
As free as the wind and the waves
Live your life the way you choose
Find the ones who'll laugh with you
Like the sea
will find its way to shore
As the sun sinks from the sky,
Live your life and you will find
There're no regrets
Only good times ....
- Keola and Kapono Beamer

Subject: ISlAmaBAD Airport?
Summary: Air Line folks are funny folks
Keywords: chuckle
(source: Rex Loring, former RAF pilot)
Air-to-ground conversation involving BOAC pilot approaching Karachi
(Pakistan) International Airport:
Pilot: Speedbird 7-0-7 here. Request permission to land on runway 42-
Left.
Tower: Sorry, Speedbird 7-0-7. Runway 42-Left is closed. There was an
unfortunate incident yesterday. But you are cleared for landing on runway
19-Right.
Pilot: Roger Karachi tower. Proceeding on approach pattern.
[As the pilot enters final approach, he is appalled to see a 747 taking
off from that runway and heading straight at him. After taking violent
evasive action, the conversation resumes]
Pilot: Karachi Tower. What is going on ?? You cleared me for landing
on runway 19-Right, but there was another plane taking off from there !!!
Tower: Oh dear. I do hope we will not have a repeat of yesterday.
