my mother told him how much we had loved Bolo. Right after eating at Mesa. Heh. The margaritas at Mesa are really good, though.
Are these 2 facts connected in some way, you think?
Well, it's just good to know that when the chips are down and things look grim you'll feed off the girl who loves you to save your own ass!

What is even happening?
juliana, google suggests Rhode Island Clam Chowder might be the kind with clear broth. Is it? If so, I've had it, but not under that name. In fact, I've only had it on Prince Edward Island, in Canada. I'd take it over the Long Island Clam Chowder any day, but New England Clam Chowder will always be the yummiest to me.

Today is large with random phonecalls for things that are not my area of expertise (nor should they be.) How should I know who does the animated graphics for APL or JPL? Or the status of a UA project? I'm affiliated with neither!

Not juliana, but RI clam chowder is clear.

Because books.
New England Clam Chowder is the One True Chowder.
I ate at Mesa Grill years ago, with my boss. It was very yummy. And I was very glad I wasn't paying.

The elephant article is very cool. And there was only one paragraph that made my brain freeze up completely. Turns out I knew some of that already from reading comics. That's where all the cutting-edge theoretical physics is.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
How should I know who does the animated graphics for APL or JPL?
Bob.
Or the status of a UA project?
47% done.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Actually, no. Mesa with my mother was with people from her job, so no drinking (or maybe a glass of wine). I've had the margaritas there with other people, sitting at the bar. But not for a long time -- I'm pretty sure the last time I was there, you could still smoke in part of the bar area!

I like the article, too. Brain nearly went 'splodey (it was going to anyway from clogged sinuses), but I think the last little bit about black hole computers saved the day.
