- Tell us something.: I used to be a regular then I took up the bassoon. Bassoons don't have a lot of chiff. Not really, I have always been a drummer, and my C&F years were when I was a little tired of the drums. Now I'm back playing drums. I mist the C&F years, though.

I couldn't find any of my three praying mantises this morning. (That's all we have left, after I spent $25 to provide hundreds of them as delicacies for my neighbor's horde of yellowjackets. I think I have two females and one male. I just hope they breed this year.)

I spent the afternoon painting six different colors on the front of my house in an effort to come up with a color scheme for my Craftsman bungalow.

It might help to join a major league first. It can, apparently, be done. Toronto is in the American League and Montreal is in the National League.Wombat wrote:Australia and Cuba just played off for the Olympic gold medal in baseball. Does that mean we both get to play in this year's World Series?

All I said was that the ceremonial uniforms and rituals involved in the Cherokee crack bore an uncanny similarity to those of the Klan.
At no point did I equate the proud Cherokee people with the low life pond dwellers who chose to spend their time in racist bigotry.
You and I come from different worlds and maybe,admittedly my fault,things get lost in translation. It was never my intent to be disrespectful to you and your people.
Hope this clarifys the matter.
