Natter 36: But We Digress...
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
why can't I light this flag on fire anyway? And of course the answer is, "because that would be fire in a crowded theatre."
My favorite gag in Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are Dead is when one of them pauses, comes up to the lip of the stage, stares out into the audience, and bellows, "FIRE!!!"
The other stands back, waits, and finally comments something like, "Well, they'd all be goners."
(The joke only makes any sense if you are actually seeing the play performed.)
Happy Birthday Teppy!
Congratulations to amych and her (gasp) husband! We do want stories. Did you tell work yet?
Re: Jeb Bush asking the FL state attorney to investigate Michael Schiavo:
The state attorney who has been pushed by the governor into pursuing this case told me yesterday he has seen nothing to indicate that a crime was committed. Nevertheless, the inquiry continues.
Governor Bush asked Bernie McCabe, the state attorney for Pinellas County, to "take a fresh look" at this already exhaustively investigated case to determine, among other things, whether Michael Schiavo had perhaps waited too long to call for help after discovering that his wife had collapsed early one morning 15 years ago.
Mr. McCabe did not seem particularly enthusiastic about his mission. "I wouldn't call it an investigation," he told me in a telephone conversation. The word "investigation," he said, "is a term of art in my business."
He then explained: "When I conduct an investigation, it would mean that I have a criminal predicate. In other words, that I have some indication that a crime has occurred. That's my job.
"In this circumstance, that does not exist at this time. So what I'm attempting to do is respond to the governor's request by conducting what I'm calling an 'inquiry' to see if I can resolve the issues he raised."
He chuckled at his use of the word inquiry. "It may be a distinction without a difference," he said.
This guy has kinda a dry sense of humor, huh?
Heh. I like him.
Happy Birthday Steph!
