Those gals look like they'd appear in a Wagner opera. I can't say that I find female Klingons that attractive-- the bad teeth and lobsterheads are an obstacle-- but it didn't take much for me to google up this exchange between Worf and Wesley about Klingon mating rituals: Worf: "Men do not roar. Women roar. Then they hurl heavy objects. And claw at you." Wesley: "What does the man do?" Worf: "He reads love poetry. He ducks a lot." ...which sounds like my kinda scene... It'd be interesting to see which "fictitious alien races" would be seen as "sexiest" in some kind of survey. It would truly test the bounds of "omnisexuality"-- just how different from the human trope could you go and still be, at least abstractly, sexually desireable. I guess you could thrown cartoon characters in there... I've met people who at least claim to find The Little Mermaid sexually alluring in the extreme. I think you'd have to toss out all aliens who look 100% human, but maybe you could count, like Time Lords. They look totally human except that they are all apparently British and eccentric (good in my book), and they do that regenerating thing. Which among the women seems to mean that one night you'd be boffing Mary Tamm, which is okay, and then suddenly you get Lalla Ward-- woo hoo!-- and if things keep going in that direction... make mine Romandevoradtrelundar. Errr, but my guess is that the lion's share of the votes, coming from undersexed SF geeks, would go to, like, almost human but funky-colored dancing girls such as Star Trek's Orion Slave Girls or Star Wars's Twi'ileks (had to google that last one, honest). Vulcans... well, okay, the busty Vulcan chick on the current Trek is very off-putting, but Kirstie Alley's Saavik was okay. And I'm bi enough to admit that Spock was way hot. Then there's the various related hominid species (inluding humans) from Larry Niven's Ringworld books, who routinely have nonreproductive interspecies sex to seal deals or form alliances, etc. I don't recall any particular species being that attractive, but you'd do okay for sheer variety. Some are furry, some smooth-skinned, various skin colors, heights and build, some simian, some vampire-like, and some aquatic... so, as Nitzer Ebb would have it, you got to know that there's fun to be had. ___ Nuppy: >>And yes pineapples DO belong in some curries as well >> on pizza (Sorry mr. wells!). Of course they do. I guess I can see the objection to the pizza thing (although I don't agree), but pineapples' rightful place in several curries is indisputable. At least I pray to God it is. ____ James: >>It's probably also why I get spam about helping >>with my (US) mortgage, buying cars in the US, and about other stuff which I >>can't even begin to understand because it's too US-oriented. The ones that talk about "lasting longer"? (Looks around furtively, drops voice to whisper) ...that's American talk for retaining an erection... How sad that you have to see that stuff.

The situation with the hopelessly concise epitaph (22 characters) reminds me of an obsession I've had since my dad died 12 years ago: my family is not religious, so we had him cremated and distributed the ashes in an appropriate ceremony (in the Gulf of Mexico). That was what he wanted, but I like the idea of a permanent monument, and in fact I've felt a need over the years to create some kind of memorial to my father, something that might still be extant at the end of my 4-year-old son's life. So my question for fegdom is this: what sort of permanent-ish memorial can you imagine for those who shun the traditional headstone, yet are not rich enough to buy a significant piece of real estate? I like the idea of a physical spot, like a garden or park, but that's neither necessary nor likely within reach. I've considered things like "naming" a star but that seems sort of crass and not terribly durable. But maybe someone can tell me otherwise. Obviously I have a lot of distance here, so nobody should be afraid to make a playful suggestion. In sum: You love somebody who died; how do you memorialize them without resorting to a traditional cemetery? Or, What Would Robyn Do? cheers, +brian in New Orleans ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 24 Apr 2003 03:05:44 -0700 (PDT) From: Jeff Dwarf Subject: Re: Garland-Bowie Overdrive; food coloration "Rex.Broome" wrote: > Anyone seen "A Mighty Wind" yet?

Are there any local parts etc that let you sponsor or dedicate a bench or a tree or something else within the park? At least that's the first thing that comes to my mind. Around the first anniversary of my father's death, a group of my brother and sister's friends surprised us with one of those star namings and it was really touching and nice. This was before they were so heavily promoted as to be cheesy and lame though. I'm not ever sure I had heard of it before that night, in fact. ===== "Being accused of hating America by people like Ann Coulter or Laura Ingraham is like being accused of hating children by Michael Jackson or (Cardinal) Bernard Law." -- anonymous .

Or, What > Would Robyn Do? That's a difficult one. The majority of my family are fair weather Christians (read: Christmas, Easter, and anniversaries of passings, for the post part), and my parents have a plot in the same cemeteries as their parents and their parents before them. As for a memorial, while the subject matter would stump me, I would think a small piece of statuary in a garden would be appropriate. My sister lives in an apartment on my parent's property and she is (as would I be) the fifth generation to live in the house. There's a bit of history there, and I would think a secluded, overgrown patch of garden there with a smallish piece of granite or marble would be beautiful and appropriate. Both permanent and private. My thoughts have, too, been with Eb and the entire situation. I hope all's going as best it can, sir. If I'm coming across as mentally fractured this morning (I haven't time to re-read this), it's due to the fact I took a tumble in the bath this morning and cracked my head.

I thought it was an absolutely fantastic gig, really just so much fun and in just about the smallest place I've seen a Robyn gig, and a very nice pub to boot. I thought John Hegley was marvellous - though somehow I've managed to collect most of his books, I hadn't really thought about him since the early 90s, when seeing him on TV and a particularly nasty incident involving just the one contact lens, a flight of stairs and some broken ribs wooed me back to full-time glasses-wearing. His poems were always even better when he delivered them himself and seeing him at the Feghorn was a revelation. Much shorter than I'd imagined him... Jimmy Melia? Who? Something to do with football I expect (being uterly wet and a weed I'm afraid team sports passed me by).
