Good heavens!  hello, Bill!
Yes, heaven is good. Hello, Bill Ball! I've wondered if you were still among us sinners or singing with the heavenly host. Glad to know sin is still winning. Two of my most valued Bill Ball moments: (1) the photo of Wild Bill the gallant flyboy in his coveralls somewhere above it all. And (2) the comment when we were talking about breasts and someone used the term genitalia to refer to the breasts and I responded that I'd never thought of breasts as genitalia and Bill Ball riposted: "Me neither, Mike. I've always thought of them as cookies." I laughed for 3 weeks. It still makes me laugh. Yes. Exactly. It is so wholesomely non-sexist, but at the same time, such a poignant expression of male oral fixations, delectable fixations, mind you. All praise to Bill Ball for his lovely terminology. Let us hear more.

And Alex Trifan, and long lost David Savory and Mike Chase and  Brian
Whatshisname (the conservative), and Larry Kramer : ) and Mirembe and
Stan
Speigel and Steve Chilson and Teemu (who seems to only chimes in
officially), and Bill Ball and others all the others I've enjoyed over
the
years whose names escape me at the moment.  And why are there so few
women
here?  Do women find us boring?  Surely not.  I guess they just have
more
important things to do.
