    Hindsight is 911.
    Hopefully preventing further calls to said line.
    Just giving you the 411.
    And pointers for the 211.

    I never saw the point of 211.

    lactase pills. Luckily, Austin is better known for
    its bovine flesh than its dairy products. Priorities
    and all that.
    Texans tend to serve the whole critter, although ice cream is
    available.

    Texans in general perhaps, but you'd have to go to
    several places to get a complete nose-to-tail.
    Steakhouses serve steak, Tex-Mex ones seem to have
    the corner on skirt and plate, just as the Q joints
    have claimed all the briskets. Head, tail, liver,
    kidneys, tripe, feet, you have to go Mex-Mex. The
    rest of the beast goes to shoes and burgers.

    And New York City, at least for a while.
    I saw the 9/11 light memorial from the air. Quite
    spectacular and rather moving.
    I'd like to have seen that one myself.

    if you fly over the city on 9/11 they do a revival of
    the original memorial.

    For the second time since '02 I'm not flying - one year
    I took the TGV, which almost counts; this year I'll be
    with Lilli and Swisher at Ian and Jacquie's, and even
    if I wanted to fly someplace I wouldn't be able to.

    Dr Dolittle's cleaning service franchise?
    I'm unfamiliar with that good medic. I presume
    that he did little.
    He could talk to the animals.

    That's not necessarily doing much.

    At least two were re-elected after they got out of the joint for
    crimes committed on the first go-round.
    There have been those who have ridden the merry-go-round
    between public office and prison a number of times.
    One former CT governator comes to mind. I'm not sure if he's out
    again yet or not, and frankly don't care.

    It's not always clear whether the ones that get caught or at
    least prosecuted are the most malfeasant ones. Of course, just
    about any politician except maybe Massachusetts's the Duke,
    has skeletons in closets, so it's easy to stick it to them.
    And they look so adorable in black and white stripes.

    Probably legal CYA on somebody's part.

    Then there's the Vietnamese, who probably use pretty well everything
    although they may not serve it to outsiders.

    Ruth and pressure changes don't mix, so I'll have to youtube it or
    something.

    Rats.

    Apparently the animals talked back.

    Some of course just make sure they follow the letter of the law if
    not the spirit. These days the stripes have become solid orange or
    nasty tan.
