oh, Richie! I am so glad as I am not a James Taylor fan at all, either.. and found that it was not politic to mention it in a post Woodstock world.
but thank you for breaching that etiquette. . I am grateful!
[Ya know, half the planet has no idea who James Taylor is. None ... ok, one,... of my coworkers knew who he was when I snuck a CD on one day at lunch on another computer. (Mine doesn't have any speakers.) ]
But doesn't this mean you won't be sent to your room without your granola and beansprouts now?
I'll bring the tofu, Nan!!
ewwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww. rotten beans.
Kid #2 informed me he wants to be a vegetarian. Can't wait to see what he does when I serve him a nice tofu patty!! !

Horses and books were all I had. Got my SSN when I was 15 to get a "Real" job (hoeing tabacco since I was 12) to make payments on my first horse. She cost me $500.00 and I paid $100.00 a month for her. That was a lot of money back then, espicially to a 15 year old kid. She got stolen so I went to Latonia racecourse looking for her,(thought she may be being used for a "Pony Horse") ran into to Steve Cauthran (he had been in my 4-H group) and he saw me crying and got me a job as a "Hotwalker" and thats how it started. I never did find my horse and have never owned another one. It broke my heart.
Now I'm going to tell you all something I'v never told ANYONE except my mom (not until 15 years later, and she thought it was funny that I'd pulled it off) and I hope none of those people EVER see this. If any of the people I fooled DO see this, I'm sorry. (sorta, it was fun!)
I pretended to be "Deaf" for the whole time I was at the tracks. (I'd taken sign language classes cause I had a crush on a deaf boy) Told them all I "read lips" and was VERY convincing cause noone ever found out about it. It was really liberating, I did't have to talk to anyone and people would say "any and everything" to you. The best part was that people left you alone and I guess from a physicological level it gave me a reason to justify "Not fitting in" cause I knew by then that I did't fit in anywhere. Did that make any sense? Lots of stories I could tell about the track. I can cuss fluently in spanish cause of it. Panamian jockeys. Theres a good joke about jockeys but this is a family site

I was making a joke. But the description you provided might not be that far off from Liz's dick. Oops. Better capitalize that. Liz doesn't have a dick or a Dick any more.
If your wondering about the change in my demeanor, it's multivitamins and addddditional C.
It's improved the blood supply to my head. Err, my brain.

Hilarious yes. But worth 800.00 I could spend 5.00 on a used copy of the Kama Sutra and still be way ahead.
Hey speaking of the Kama Sutra, look what I've stumbled upon in my never ending quest for information on the appropriate mating habits of Aspies. An on-line version translated by none other than "da da da da" Richard Burton. I wonder if he sneaks in any foot notes about Elizabeth's favorite positions. My Bad.

This may be a hilarious workshop opportunity that's not to be missed! Maybe marionettes are involved. Something like the Muppet Show. Question (A lot of the Muppets have Aspie eyes).
Fozzy Bear and Miss Piggy would take the stage, a man in a white coat would run up and exclaim, "Stop!! ! No bears and pigs! It's just wrong. WRONG I say!! !!" Laughing
(Now, pigs and frogs of course, are no problemo).

Sir Richard Francis Burton (1821-1890) frustrates simple description. Adventurer, linguist, scholar, swordsman, rogue, genius -- he possessed wild, monstrous talents and was burdened by defects nearly as grave. Continually at odds with the sentiments of his times, his translation of the Arabian Nights and sundry Indian and Persian amatory manuals scandalized society. At the same time, he was an unmistakable Victorian.
How did I get involved in this exchange? I wasn't part of that one.
Yes you were. You started it.
