ok, so the mm will NOT, i repeat NOT be watching any more footage on michael jackson...further, i will no longer discuss him at work with my cohorts, nor utter his name in polite society...hence force he is persona non grata (i ask the latin scholars to check for spelling on this one....) the term michael jackson special is a contradiction in terms.....

so this morning i took a chance and drove my carfull of cardboard to the recycling place, only to find it open.......who knew.......i would have brought more from the garage if i had but known.....saving the world is really ruining the back end of my car......by the way.....but i do not lose sleep over this......exactly what was closed on this president's day? my bank was open (national city) but i got no mail....or rather scw got no mail.....he is now getting stuff from mit, brown, duke, etc ands reads none of it.....i enjoyed the part in the simpsons last night (can't remember if 300 or 301) when lisa is offered a full ride to the seven sisters if she throws the spelling bee) i know a few women who attended places like smith and bryn mayr.....both live alternative lifestyles........so i was amused to see the 7 sisters on mt olympus and how they were portrayed.....i really did enjoy watching the simpsons.......moreso now that my boys are beyond the age of bart simpson..(badboybart)...and moreso now that i am aging along with marge and homer......my life seems so serene to be exactly their age without their problems.......you do the math, marge is now 47 with a baby in diapers.......
