The Yoruba-speaking people of Nigeria have a proverb: "Consider the state of your life before you name a child." His system always need it, even though his obstinate will may deny it. You are safe there and you can do as you please. "It's a dream!" "I'm one of you."

A wonderful day from every point of view. The three settings were designed by Cleon Throckmorton for productions at the Provincetown Playhouse, New York. Pipe Dream's failure can be attributed to the choice of material itself compounded by an overly tasteful treatment of potentially raffish characters. And last of all Turgon arose, and went with his household silently throught the hills, and passed the gates in the mountains, and they were shut behind him. It is the magic I will always remember.

Hokay, now remember, this is from my office book shelf, not my home collection...

Development in PIttsburgh and indeed the expansion of the city itself and its environs have always been dictated by the topography of the region. The protocol drives you nuts - plus everyone wants to be so damn polite about the cutting. But remember out fair use mantra: There are no garuntees! Notes over five rubles were 37 percent of the total value of the 1842 issue, but 75 percent of the 1846 issue. What went on in the rooms is another story altogether.

Mine was from the shelves in the computer room so I had to throw back a few that were astrology guides and had nothing but charts on the selected pages. I keep thinking of doing it again with the theatre shelves or just grabbing 5 of Mark's books off the living room shelves.....

I started doing this and began pulling books from above the computer...I just realized they are all education books--and that educators write long, long, long, boring sentences.

*laughs* but just imagine the conflicting styles. I was worried about mine as I started - 3 astrology texts and a book of multi-cultural baby names. It might have been more interesting if I'd pulled from the second shelf which is all Terry Pratchett.
