Not really. You see the sun light hits the opal space ship at an oblique left angle and propels it off at an oblique right angle. This propels the space ship into the 4th dimension - backwards. The problem here is that the traveler would instantly revert into an amoeba. This problem may be resolved by shining a laser on the traveller, thus reversing the velocity of the change.

"The origin of macaroni lies not with the Etruscans, Greeks, Romans, or Chinese, but apparently with the Arabs. The earliest evidence of a true macaroni occurs at the juncture of medieval Sicilian, Italian, and Arab cultures" SLANDER, LIES, CALUMNY, LIBEL, MENDACITY, PERNICIOUS UNTRUTH, DISSIMULATION, FOUL RUMOR MONGERING!!! GRRRR! Do you hear me down there in the boondocks? And you an Eyetalian! Shame! Shame! :bag: Where is your proof? What acceptable sources can you cite? Those people eat cous-cous, tabbouleh, baba ganoij! When was the last time you had spaghetti in an ARab restaurant? :2guns: :punk: :1eye:

Bride just returned from Maine. She had 'Shipyard Ale', brewed in Portland, ME. Thought it was very good. P.P.: Y. is available at Miers in Rochester Hills. It is now a part of Anheuiser-Bush(?).

Go to her blog and you can see a pic of her - and - some excellent other pics.

Make up your mind woman! Are you for or against the weather out there? Are you a Valley Girl, (whatever that is)? -_- Do you babble in Kali4kneeya English? By the bye, once the temp goes above 60 degrees, it's A/C time. In order for the wine to be comfortable, it should repose at 54 degrees.

Kind Lady: 1st. If you would like a bigger plate for your enormous offence, please advise. 2nd. While you are at it, you can jettison everything west and south of the Hudson River. America has no need for the provinces or outlieing districts. I suggest that you keep your diving gear at hand. You never know, the next little shake and you may be in the drink. 3rd. Your polycrastic desire will be taken into consideration.

To your chop suey, I say ptooey! (Besides, out here we call it chow mein or lo mein...) Now that figures. Just can't leave good enough alone. No need for A/C...it's now down to 76'!! The fog is back, baby! Wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!! Yes, and that is perfectly clear.

Cherished Young Lady: And you have the tralatitious and trenchent temerity to lay the charge of verbal machinations at my feet! With your generous permission, I will add your little cutie to my Lexicon of Aspersions. How come you people don't have the right time of day out there in la-la land?

I was puzzled for a while. The formula made everything clear. You realize, of course, that the spaceship will have to be made of opal and travel into the fourth dimension - but it will be traveling backwards in time.

Me Buckos: National Women's Football Assoc. Super Bowl will take place next month. Hope it is as good as the Aussie midget tossing. Some witch put a curse on some woman so that she would fall in love with some chap. The contra party didn't appreciate it, so she brought the matter up before the magistrates. Probably in wierdo Kali4kneeya. :1eye: A creepy crawly and a flying bug couldn't take the weather outside any longer. Got into the estate for the A/C. So I crushed the bloody innards out of them with my little hand! A devoted clod, and alleged poet, wants to deshabilier Emily Dickenson and have sex with her! The Censored necrophile! Personally, my supreme object of carnal lust is still Sophia Loren - alive! :wub: The voyaging Domina returns tomorrow. I expect to be in the hospital for a while. When I get out of the body cast, I may be able to return to the ivories.

Women! It figures! I ask a simple uncrafted question for my edification, and I get a retort full of craft. That was chop suey he brought back! Get an A/C!

Speaking of wine, did the Romans discover The Food of The Gods - Macaroni? Pantagathus (You rebel), Pertinax and Dr. Dalby (and any others) are all y'all paying attention? If so, what kind of wine (not to be ) did they pollute themselves with?

Did you know that grappa was made from ground up diseased old toe nails? I first tasted that bilge when the immigrant father of a girl I was dating wanted to know my intentions! The old man poured me a beaker of that rot gut - neat - no stinking admixture. Chug-a-lugged it. Went over the lips and through the gums and burned every part of my body and didn't forget the animus. Will exaggerate the story on my blog one day.

I believe that the Romans had an outpost around the Sea of Azov. I think that grain was imported from there. Is that so and did it have any other purpose for the Romans? Again, I believe that the Romans had a fort on the coast of present day Yemen. If so and aside from trade, did it serve any other purpose?

My goood woman, who cares about the weather in Kali4kneeya? My pal, in Scotts Valley, is always bragging about the weather out there on the left coast. The only weather that is of any importance, is the weather in Brookfordshiresexington Great Olde Place. I've advised you once before to get an A/C! Your wine must be cooking.

In the US, but I certainly could be wrong. It would be the first time in my life!

You didn't have to go that far to pick up Yuenglings. It's a Pennsylvania beer and available at Jahn's(?) in Rochester Hills.

Phil25 thanks for the run down. Yet, I would swear that the original was in B&W. I taped it, so now I will have to get them out. Keep in mind that the DVD version could have been 'colored'. Love Kyra Knightly, but her Pride and Prejudice didn't measure up to the A&E version, in my opinion.

In NYC, there is a National Public Radio station, WNYC. Leonard Lopate, a most informed person, has a two hour program in which he interviews authors about their books. The author gets at least 20 minutes. Leonard actually reads the books from cover to cover and is informed or informs himself on the subject. The author is questioned in a civil, knowledgeable fashion and through a dialogue, light rather than heat is shed on the book. He does not have any hang-ups as regards women or other sundry despised types. Send him a copy. P.S. I am sure that he would love to carry on with you about food and wine. Then there is Pertinax with his herbs and brews and that English, which drives me Koo-Koo. And not to forget Pantagathus with his brews and that Greek stuff.

If my memory serves, the Romans used 'runners' or a 'pony express' on their roads to deliver imperial messages to the provinces. Perhaps this method was used on a bad day? A little slow though. Fleets at sea, when travelling in radio silence, use flags and light to signal each other. Does the present code have any bearing on the ancient code?

Does all this twaddle explain why the Brits go looking for an out of work Germanic type for a monarch when they have whacked one of their own? (If they have had one of their own in the last thousand years.)

My Lord Don Giovanni: You can get that and probably an A-Bomb. to boot. And I am serious!

To the blazes with the battles! If Derek Jacoby and the Brian who paled Augustus and the lady who played Livia aren't in it , it will be worthless.

Best if PBS re-runs the black and white original series. Who needs inane, insipid and insane commercials?
