�Once in his life, every man is entitled to fall madly in love with a gorgeous redhead�

"To announce that there must be no criticism of the President, or that we are to stand by the President, right or wrong, is not only unpatriotic and servile, but is morally treasonable to the American public."
--Theodore Roosevelt, 1918

"The "seven social sins": Knowledge without character,
Science without humanity,
Wealth without work,
Commerce without morality,
Politics without principles,
Pleasure without conscience,
Worship without self-sacrifice."

We have borrowed it from our children."
--Kashmiri, proverb
Well, lookie here�following on the heels of last week�s letter from my old roommate, I just received a call from an old friend, Marina. I haven�t seen Marina is about four years. I send her (and her family � she�s married, with two kids) Christmas cards every year, but that�s really the extent of our friendship these days. I used to work with Marina at the Credit Union of Hell.

Anyway, among the many things we discussed was the goings-on in the life of another old friend: Jeni. Jeni is the one I went to Paris with, oh those many moons ago. And Jeni has been living quite a life in the four years since I�ve seen her. Aside from having moved to Seattle and developing a small following as a radio news/side-kick gal, she has been through a live-in boyfriend and is now the Personal Assistant to a D-list television personality, while she tries to get acting and/or voiceover jobs. The kicker�She dated Carrottop. Twice. And apparently, she still hooks up with him when he�s in town.

Not only did she date Carrottop, you guys � she pursued him. She liked him on t.v. and hounded him down after an appearance on Hollywood Squares or something. Then, a little while later, she saw him on the street, saw which hotel he was walking in to and called him there. He remembered having met her after his Hollywood Squares gig (you know � remembered her out of what I�m sure must amount to the throng of Carrottop groupies surrounding him at the time) and asked her out on a date.

Aside from being just an extremely funny story, that whole tale makes me slightly sick to my stomach.

Also, I keep forgetting to mention that my niece Sarah�s boyfriend, Chris, has gone off to Chicago to film a movie in which he plays the lead character. Apparently, it�s a Psychological Thriller (Sarah described it to me as a Horror flick and promptly sent Chris in to an apoplectic fit by doing so). Anyway, that was exciting news and I just kept forgetting to make note of it.

And don�t forget � there�s another entry from today, before this one.
