In honor of such, Welcome to Bavaria!

“A most splendid country, brilliantly charming, wealthy in forests, plentiful in wine, rich in iron, gold, silver and purple; the men tall and powerful, but good-natured and hardworking; the land blessed with rivers, with cattle and herds thick as grass; even the mountains are fruitful and ready for pasture; good herbs abound; the woods teem with deer, elk and auerochs, with chamoix and ibex, and game of every kind.”

– Bishop Arbeo of Freising, around the 8th century A.D.

I come from Old Bavarian Stock…though I’d like to claim some Franc blood. (I also accept that I have a few Swabian tendencies, but not many… more thrift than understatement.) The Sudatenland Kids…They’re too new to be part of my gene pool.

Hmm… Ana Rubin has a job at the local gallery. I should swing by there and see what’s up. I bet she’s digging the work there. I’d like to see what they’re having her do. She’s been in town since before Christmas and still haven’t had a chance to say howdy.

Speaking of Anas, I noticed that Ms. Voog isn’t using the orange she had on her lj for the longest time. What ever happened with sleep station?

Are Hershey’s kisses called besos in Spanish too? Hmm.. Nope. “Kisses de Hershey”. The Kissmobile is cool, though. Not as cool s the Coolest food-vehicle… The Weinermobile. I’m partial to the 1958 version.

A year ago – Trimaris, school dream, little suck-a-thumb, James Earl Jones gets called James Earl Ray (Whoops!), Immigrant song, band name poll, Sasha and Misha move away, some silly linkies.

Two years ago – Analog never did print it, Bilbo’s Guide to life, textbooks responsible for stupid teens.
