You at least give them a grace period, don't you? I sometimes get calls from this guy *before* the mail shows up in my inbox.
Willow: Were there dolphins? Tara: Yes. Many dolphins at the pound. Willow: Was there a camel? Tara: There was the front of a camel. A half-camel.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Did you guys see Bart Connors and Nadia Comenici on Oxygen yesterday? The segment with Bela Karolyi and Mary Carillo? They make a handsome couple and check out their cutie pie baby boy.
I think that there should have been a segment with Mary Lou and Nadia - Bela wouldn't have gotten a word in edgewise. They should both have had the gonging power and they would have used it.

Lots of ~ma for your father, Calli.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Oh dear, Calli. Here's hoping you're father's situation is as inexplicable as mine was. In that they couldn't find anything actually wrong with him, I mean.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs
Thank you. They know he has NH lymphoma, but at its current stage the oncologist didn't think it would be laying him out like this. So I guess it comes down to whether the chemo is doing this or if there are further health issues.

Calli, I hope it's something easily explainable and treatable.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
Oh I'm sorry Calli, how nerve-wracking.
Thanks ChiKat. Wordpress looks a bit nicer, but I'm thinking that it's a good idea to make it easy as possible for my students.

Nadia's looking good. And that kid's indeed a cutie pie. Keeping him from jumping off the furniture must be a struggle.
