Yeah, well, hang in there, and, as a student of the language of the Angles (and what is the etymology of the English word-ending, "ish"?), isn't "argh" usually spelled with two r's?

Perdido Station. Of course, "perdido" means "lost" in Spanish. And Portuguese. Related to English "perdition." One imagines a Latin verb, perdere. Well, after way way too many words, the story finally gets going, with the arrival of the slake-moths. And there is no happy ending. One thinks there will be. But no.

Oh yeah! Because you gave "Iron Man" an A-, Greg and I went and saw it in Colfax last night! We figured, an A- from Janet is equal to anybody else's A+++, so it was worth a look. And we liked it!

Luvya,
