for a while there I was seeing our saint-lady-friend inwardly all the time. then the other day, right as I walked through marble arch on a very difficult but day (an area that I waould assocaite with your visit, by the way)a black cab drove in front of me with the saint hanging from the rear-view mirror. i've never seen that before in london. so, this girlfriend stuff makes sense. now, which saint is going to help me out!!!?? :)

Saint Therese, keep praying for us. There are some incredible connections which you'll really love.

Soraya and the gang stopped by Portland last weekend. While you were arranging the Nonviolence forum of the European year (way to go on HH's representative!), I had the joy of seeing our friends in the Pacific NW. Soraya called me up the day I got back from Mexico, and a few hours later, we're all eating ice cream, they're talking in English, French, and Creole, and a limousine is waiting by the door!

You've changed my life, Shabazz. There's another little saint (to help you out!) in Soraya's pocket which she's promised to give you the next time you're together. I hope it's soon, not really because of the gift, but just because she is an incredible young woman to be around.

Muchas Gracias. I don't believe it, but I may be beating the B-W'ers to the South. You're welcome to visit.

"If a man is to know the road he treads on, he must walk it in the dark."

Is that Taylor Murdoch?

Ah, well, its good.

I have been using my bagascia line recently... my bagascia 'line' being the word itself. People standing around talking about the Italian they know, and I say, hey, I got something! The conversation generally ends in weeping, and somebody often loses a leg, but I always wake up the next morning, glad to be an American.

Good luck in New Orleans, Taylor, and with the girl!

That's John of the Cross. Try sneaking in a pretentious literary line to end one of your entries. Hell, it doesn't even have to be literary. I use Spanish mystics almost as much as I use Shaq and Pat Sajak.

I am truly happy for you: in this light of a path, and a way of being. You will do good things taylor murdoch, you will do wonderful things. In quakerism we call this enlightenment (of a grande sort) "way opens"...good luck of course to you, and to you and she.

If you're ever down my way, let me know. And I just realized, in your direction- you might even go to a Cubs game next year!

no doubt! There are three hardcore Cubs fans in the faculty. One of which has amazing (handed down) season passes and invited me already. When I asked if he saw the white sox game the other day he replied "don't swear". Where exactly will you be again?

New Orleans & JVC!

I know 3 of the 4 second year JVs who are going to be in New Orleans. You'll have fun with them. :)

(New Orleans is on my list of places to go next year, because one of my very best friends is getting her MPH at Tulane there. Maybe we'll get to meet!)
