'Touched'
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.
Oh, I have a message for msbelle that may be of use to other parents as well. In a conversation that randomly turned to those books with different scenes and the names of everything, a friend of mine charged me with teaching mac that calling it a "cement mixer" is wrong, that there is no such thing as a cement mixer, and it should properly be known as a "concrete mixer."
FYI.
YAAAAAAAAAAY msbelle'n'Mac!
I dunno if it's a faux pas to ask in Press, but does anyone have a media bistro account?
I was gonna offer up DH, but it looks like Google came through first. Your editor rocks!

Nilly, yes. I only know a few key words in Amharic (toilet, for instance).
He knows yummy goes with food. I use hand symbols for going to bed.
English word's he knows: shoes, yummy, hello, sleep, airplane, mom, yes, no, thank you, water, stop, wait.
That's a pretty good start, msbelle.

Yeah, thinking about it, I don't know why we keep calling it a cement mixer, since cement is one thing, part of what makes up concrete.
In other news, I just stumbled on the non-annoying version of Inside The Actors Studio: Movies 101, on AMC.

Oh, and about the vegan using cows to plough--if you're the sort of vegan that thinks honey and yeast are crossing a line, labour seems a bit much to ask of the creatures out there.
