Must be the moon or something. I haven't been able to post here for a
long time and suddenly I can during all of this, how shall we say,
friction? I have been able to read things posted.

I thoroughly agree with the advice above and what Barb and others have
said. You may wake up today and want to stuff your head in your turkey
for the goings-on of yesterday. Maybe you will just continue on, as
you seem to want to do after supposedly quitting the fray. It did seem
like you were totally stressed-out and having an episode. I think that
Dams got it right early in this very long string of things. Even from
other posts it seems like you demand a lot of attention and I'm sorry
to be giving you some now.

Sheldon gave me a lot of guff when he thought I was a newbie (I wasn't:
he was absent when I first came on here). I don't have the thickest
skin but got used to him and understood what teasing is, having two
older brothers. No, I do not condone insults or degredation. But it
is, after all, sticks and stones.

Through emails with "Shelly" I found what a kind and thoughtful person
he is, besides all the crap he writes here. So, I'm ready for your kf,
not that I will be able to post here often due to aol, google and mac
flukes. I'm not allied with anyone nor am anyone's stooge: just my
personal experience.

Tomorrow we will scatter the ashes of one of my best friends from high
school.
He died 2 years ago of AIDS and we'd been out of touch for years. His
sister got in touch with me and hadn't realized how close Craig and I
had been. She sent him here on one of his last trips. So my husband
and I will try to sing "Saturday In The Park" by Chicago (it was "our"
song although we were just buddies), do that "sweet prince" part from
Hamlet and give him a toast. Maybe some balloons up into the air. There
is more to life than typing on here although you say you have a life.
Sweat the big stuff.

I served some dried (soaked) morels and button mushrooms in a sauce
with cream, garlic, white wine and lots of butter on noodles. Oh, man
was it good! I learned that it was better to soak these morels
overnight, as they were gritty the first time I soaked them for just an
hour or so. Oh, and parm reg on top, too.
