BREV

the lizard made a surprise Inspexion of the premises on Saterday while travelling to a haus-warming in Delaware. [she wanders as Good as us...if not bettre.] She said, for truth,"Every time I come here, there's more schtuff." Mostly she was referring to the desk that i got from Kay, not the totes of the Engineer that lie about.  Blade also climbed the hill to see one of his favourite girl=cousins. Too brief, too brief. Betwixt schnows.

Monday, February 26th, AndSeven...We filled up on red sausage pasta while ignoring the Oscars. Some of the same sausages will go into my next baba=chili. Soon, soon.  ~skilleteerSlac~

Barbaro is gonna lie some=wheres, equinely.

James Brown will be interred soon, at last.

[he passed around Christmas!]

Miss Hogan is schtill in transit, by way of

Floridian jurisprudence. I wish the news=people

hadn't made such a fussock about it. She is young

enuf to deserve her rest, even if her Estate and her

innocent daughter's Parentage are still in Question.

We'll Pray it ends well, soon.

That wasn't such a bad snow=storm.

We slide the Good. [edited^]

and Editorial> What i mean to say currently is that

it was a good thing the engineer and i didn't get caught

on the PENNSY FREEWAYS last week! What a clustre

of bad decisions...my brother said to me almost right

away,"It's darn lucky somebody didn't get killt." OR

percussif werds to that effect. Just anothre example

of OUR gubment money at werk. During disastre.

{WE also forgot to get fastnachts on the day, to

Watch the DOG=SHOW like Hane loved to do OR to make

a right path in the middle of February, that shortest and

cruelest month} Never mind~my TAXES are done & i

will make good use of those pennies from WASHINGTON

as they retourn to me. Undoubtably.

KAFE

Tuesday, February 20, 2007...  It was me driving through that blinding snow=squall between Frederick and Alexandria. On SUNDAY, we travelled South again, this time to visit Kay in her condo.  She is about to undertake a major renovation of the schpace...the Engineer and i went to help pack boxes and move some furniture.  {didn't i just pack a sheet=load of boxes about two years ago?} It was a great visit in schpite of the necessary werk. And Harry served us capuccino yet again. We'll have lots more fun at COUSIN MAISY's CINCO de MAYO nuptials...but, for lent, i'm giving up cruise control.

February 13, 2007...On the whole, i'd rathre be on JUPITER. I mean, in Jupiter, Florida.  I've been to the planet.^ Ask anybody.  The schnow is coming down in Fluffies!  Oh, well~other persons have it werse & werse.  And it's not like me or the ENGINEER have to clear the walk=sides. That's far behind the present Circumstance. Veritably. Luckily, we have provisions laid in until WASHINGTON's actual birf=day. WE want for Nothing.

HAPPY SAINT VALENTINE's to all my gals!  Roses are on the way, but would you Rather be smooched in OR schnowed in? Just asking...Have a nice chunk of DARK CHOCOLATE as a simulcrum. I'll fold the hort until confluence.         ~flavanolSlacanol~

Saturday, February Tenth, AndSeven...

CLARIFICATÆ~ the two (2) brothers do not bow to the law of unintended consequence.   exempli gratie:

*WE undertook our road=trip as explorers, not as an exploratory comittee of two. Neither of us is running for the And8 Nomination. Our fans could scthill draft us; it simply didn't occur to us to be political on our passage through twelve of these UNITED STATES. 'Nuf said.

*WE did visit the SPACE MUSEUM, casually. We had no idea that one of the shuttle crew=gals was gonna go bat=sheet crasy on a road=trip of her own. I hope she comes to a good middle.

*WE drove past the seminole casino located in HOLLYWOOD, Florida. We never imagined that Vickie Lynn Hogan would collapse there, then subsequently depart the werld prematurely.  ANNA NICOLE had a hard and brief Life; i Pray she comes to Peace at last. Sooner/Better.

*WE did not mean to meet TONI's b'ful baby in a Funeral Parlour. Yet, that is how it occured.  Such a peculiar irony of existence! That lovely KENDRA should bear witness to the long and Graceful passage of the grand=father she barely knew...the Plans of G & J are rare and mysterious indeed! It schtruck me Sacred that one was Rising as the other was Fading; how fresh were both their faces...Him with applied make=up, Hers with bottled milk. {they call it a viewing; what is it but a view of the Eternal?}  It was a privilege to say both Hello & Goodby.

The ENGINEER has a t=shirt that states: "Not all who wander are lost"

WIND

Monday, February Fifth, And7...it may, in future, be posited & argued that the Engineer & i went on our Southern Sojourn to escape the troubles of our own Town and Time--yet it is not true! We carried them with us and greeted them again 'pon our Retourn.

Title: perfect passage...

Thursday, February 8th...it was an honour for us to carry him down, Blade & Todd, George & Joe, the engineer and me. Blade read from WISDOM, the engineer from ROMANS.  Cat sang,"You'll never Walk Alone".  We were a well=gathered fambly.  And tho it was a bitter=cold day, we were warmed by the werds of YESHUA: "I am the Way, the Truth and the Life; he that believeth on me shall have life everlasting." ~brotherbearingslac~

EDGE

Saturday, February 3rd, And7... Cat's dad is now doing that heavy lifting i have seen before. And just as graciously as others, i would add. WE can pray for scant longevity and Hope earnestly for peaceful Comfort. That  is the Way in such days...he is not complaining of his trials. His fambly [my second or third] is gathered around him...his lovely attendant wife, the son and daughters of his vibrant youth.  TONI has brot to him an adopted Grand girl full of newness, which is a miracle of its own fair kind. I love them all...  ~prayerfulslac~

Hi to the Adventurers.

Hope your trip is going well. We are back in the thick of work and etcetera...

We will be [state=side] starting [date] leaving [date]. Most of the time

will be spent packing up the Condo to move onto the "solarium" until the renovation

is finished.

Love,

Kay

Dear Boo,

I can hardly wait to hear of your adventures...

very interested to hear the latest news of Cousin Maisy,

Did you meet [betrothed]??? Will she continue to live in [city]??

Also curious about ^son^ and ex=husband. And, how are RM and T doing?

I am hoping that ^son^ will wish to attend the wedding.

Mayhaps you would like to room with him….might even be possible to get the three

suave and debonair gentlemen (you, Engineer and ^son^) in one room… I’ll keep you

in mind when making reservations.

I’m off to Budapest for two days. On Saturday we are hosting our crew

for Burn’s Night Supper here.

Love,

K

Thursday, February First, And7...

What were we doing on MARTIN LUTHER

KING DAY? Why, riding to MONTGOMERY

of gourse. It's the little things you don't

notice that make for history. It's only after

you review them in your mind that you

recognise their significance. Yet~our trip

was a pale epochal comparitif to the force

of previous journeys made by citizens in

search of Liberty, Equality & Humanhood.

There's still a lot of werk to do...
