I rented some costumes from a professional opera company, and they made a practice of sewing the wearer's name in the pieces. While searching through a rack of matching vests, l yelled to the shop assistant: " Who's fatter, Carrera or Domingo?" "Maestro Domingo is, um, heftier."

No need to waste a blessing on dogs, because they are already angels. I always yell out "sneezers are pleazers." She doesn't understand, but she likes the enthusiasm.

A year ago, we celebrated Thanksgiving in the hospital as my husband was recovering from an infection.
We were so thankful to the two families who cooked extra and made sure we had a bedside Thanksgiving feast.
This year, we are still in recovery mode, but at home and cooking our own dinner.

Obviously, I should have started this process in August.
Yesterday I saw a frightening large stack of turkey deep friers on sale at Home Depot. Honestly, who waits until the weekend before Thanksgiving to decide how to cook the bird?

Never taught the same class twice? I cannot even imagine such a job. I have been teaching the same four classes ad nauseum for eleven years. You make me feel like a Metro driver--spending the day driving a train on the same track through the same stations again and again.

If the planes were designed to be comfortable while wearing nice clothes, maybe we would. But, in the interest of profit, planes are designed to squish as many bodies inside as possible. Screw your dress code.

The idea of trump using hundreds of millions of dollars building the site of his treason trial is delicious. After all, the Nuremberg trials were held in the city featured in the movie "Triumph of the Will", the big Nazi rally.

My husband spend a good deal of time at a local hospital, and their cafeteria served the best cheddar broccoli soup. I was almost disappointed when they released him.

You have the quiet home, and one of the cats appreciates it. Our house was the quiet house in our neighborhood. No TV, no video games, just a big box of crayons and paper on the coffee table. And some books. We always had at least one kid--not always our own-- quietly drawing.

Trump is a mentally sick old man who has no business in the position he is in. He simply wants to do as much damage as possible while making himself obscenely wealthy.

Won't they be surprised that the Latin alphabet was appropriated from the Greeks, who got their alphabet from the Phoenicians. The Older Testament used a different name for the Phoenicians: the Canaanites.
