Is Diane Reihm the "you" he was referring to? Or was it a more general you?

He's answering a caller, who complained that he was disrespecting the caller's ancestors.

I'd be happy to see all the statues of Nathan Bedford Forrest lynched from the nearest construction crane for the Fort Pillow massacre alone. Jefferson Davis was a petty idiot, but it's hard to tell whether he ensured Northern victory or pointlessly dragged out the war.

I can't have the shot without the lab work, so I guess I'll call in the morning and see if I can find out if the test has actually been entered into the computer or if the lab person screwed up. She was being trained by the competent lab person. I should have made competent person enter the information. Either way, it will add another hour or three of fun with medicine. At the moment, I am pissed at so many medical people.

Jefferson David statues in KY or MS make sense to me. From KY was US Sec of War, was Senator from MS.

Statues elsewhere? ehn. I think no.

How times have changed. I just apologized to the jillifont in the corner of my bathtub for the way my shoulder messed up all his work. He was hiding behind a bottle of body wash at the time.

I always was fond of jillifonts. From the time I was little, flies, mosquitos and so on have gone after me. And no I don't skip showering. It used to be a joke among my friend: get Gar to come outside, all the damn mosquitos will go after him and leave the rest of us alone. And jillifonts eat the damn things. They are allies. I don't want them in my house, but if I find one there I make sure to get it outside alive. Any other type of insect in my home dies, but jillifonts get transported to the garden.

Jillifonts and I live happily together in my house unless they are poisonous or big enough to have visible mandibles, in which case they are safely escorted to a comfortable relocation option. Jillifonts are a large part of my War Against Fruitflies which is an ongoing saga.

Same here. After my annual strawberry binge, I noticed some fruitflies, and then they just stopped. A little while later I saw a wee little jillyfont in a wee little web, with dozens of shriveled up fruitfly corpses below. I cleaned up the leftovers, but left the web and resident. Cutest pest control ever.

Alas, most of the jillifonts in my house are of the brown and reclusive variety, so they gotta go. The garden-type jillifonts are more than welcome, however.
