I never saw the point of 211.

Probably legal CYA on somebody's part.

All of the -11 things except 411 and 911 seem
supernumerary, and 911 really ought to be 111
as it is in civilized countries.

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.

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

Yes, I'd forgotten, there is a huge Vietnamese
presence in Texas and Louisiana.

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.

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

A pity about the pressure changes. Most people
can get used to them, though.

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.

Rats.

At any rate I'll have flown recently.

He could talk to the animals.

That's not necessarily doing much.

Apparently the animals talked back.

What was Nancy's tagline - something about 8 out of 5
schizophrenics agree?

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.

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.

Following the letter generally works, and usually but
not always when they change the litter the prohibition
against ex post facto is somewhat protective. I caught
that but left it.

Not too long ago, Marcus Samuleson did a series called "No Passport
Required". One of his shows was set in New Orleans.
We eagerly looked forward to it expecting to learn something new about
Cajun or Creole cooking. Instead it was 100% focused on the Vietnamese community in New Orleans -- which I never knew existed. His show on
Detroit was focused on the Middle Eastern community there.
Neither show was what I expected, but both were excellent. I think
that there were only six shows in all. Other shows were Ethiopian in Washington DC, Indo-Guyanese in Queens, Mexican in Chicago and Haitian
in Miami.

And yes -- most of us would quickly change some of the ingredients in
this recipe, but it does look like it has possibilities.

611 is supposed to be a repair line, so that can be useful if your
problem isn't no service.

I just don't want to end up in the orange, tan or stripes.
