Could you run me through an outline of the plot setting? Most of the books are set in the Napoleonic campaigns with the English fighting the French and sometimes (as in 'Master and Commander') their allies the Spanish. And I would have said that 'Far side of the world' was the one where he is being pursued through Antarctic ice by a Dutch severty-four called the 'Waakzamheid'. But they do all tend to merge together into one long fleuve, as I believe the expression is. I thought that there was only one novel where PO'B goes out of his way to pit the English against the American navy, when by a complicated and unlikely series of events he puts Jack Aubrey on Philip Broke's 'HMS Shannon' during her duel with USS Chesapeake. The only other confrontations with the Americans that I recall concern shipwrecked mariners brawling with Yankee whalers. The title 'Master and Commander' is only appropriate for the first book, when JA still hasn't been promoted to post-captain. Maybe they have incorporated elements of more than one book? - - Mike "throw out the kedge and reef in the studdingsails" Godwin ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 19 Nov 2003 09:57:17 -0800 From: Tom Clark Subject: Re: review of Robyn in SF 11/17/03 on 11/19/03 4:05 AM, Carrie Galbraith at meketone@ix.netcom.com wrote: > Let's get to the important facts of this tour - > What was he wearing for gods sake????? > - carrie, never having worn a tux but dressed as Andre Breton once for > halloween so I guess that's drag... > He came out in the polka dot shirt - but not THE polka dot shirt.

Naked -- Not really, but I did recently flash my neighbors thru the windows as I ran down to the laundry room with the noble purpose of finding something to wear. Tux-- I've got a (I think) wearable tux my grandfather wore in 1910, & I intend to get it around my body somehow in seven years. Wine-- Spodee odee! Actually I used to like fortified wine -- such as Retro-Rocket, but I don't see that around any more. My Mom is a tee-totaler, as were her parents (but they lived in an area where there were terrific health & other problems from moonshine). Pills-- I loved the name of the stuff called Quiet World, but like everything else, that helped me doze off for a bit, but then I popped awake in the worst part of the night. Most reliable is eating a bit too much, lying in a dark place & putting on headphones with the comfortable pounding of droning hard rock, as long as it's not too original. Most recently worked w/ Cricklewood Green. Replicates the womb heartbeat I believe. Records-- I heard the whole Let It Be ... Fucked With in a store. Don't really hate it, even enjoyed some, but it's depressing to think old music is going thru the same process of bad patches & updates as Windows. The next phase of baby boomers turning away from new music. Admittedly, I'm buying or acquiring lots of old stuff, such as: Gene Clark -- No Other (disappointed) The Original Fleetwood Mac (mixed, but necessary for Green's guitar) The Best of Creation (from hilariously bad to rockin' to some real wit) The Only Ones -- Baby's Got a Gun (wow, they/he sound/s a lot like Robyn -- not as good, but similar in voice, some subjects & some playing -- must get more) The Nails -- Moodswing (a little thin musically, but still pretty damn good, not just for the hit song either, wish it was on CD) The Five Americans -- Best Of (still buying more embarassing records) Plus various mono Beatles, Stones & Byrds, mostly because I like the mono impact & not so much for the mix differences. Ross Taylor washed my clothes in the Roto-Rooter Liquid washed my clothes in the Roto-Rooter Liquid yeah, washed my clothes in the Roto-Rooter Liquid that's why I'm as naked as a jay bird Need a new email address that people can remember Check out the new EudoraMail at http://www.eudoramail.com ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 19 Nov 2003 19:47:44 +0100 From: Carrie Galbraith Subject: Re: In vino veritas (was Re: I love wine) The usual way is with a bit of sparkling water - Compari and soda - at least that's how I've had it in other cities. However - here in Venice they have to be different of course. So they drink somthing called a "Spritz." There are 4 varieties of Spritz. Spritz con Select Spritz al'Aperol Spritz al Bitter Spritz con Cynar I drink the bitter although I have been known to have the Cynar (another aperitif I didn't really know what to make of - the artichoke one). Bitter is the name for the Compari one. Ingredients: 2 fingers of dry white wine, slightly fizzy, preferrably prosecco (cheap and good) 1 finger of Compari splash of mineral water (fizzy or naturale) a slice, smallish, of lemon. Not intended to overpower the taste so keep this small depending on the bar - a green olive If you are drinking Aperol or select, a slice of orange. Con Compari or Cynar use the lemon. Served with a complimentary bowl of patitine (potato chips) and it's the perfect end of the working day. However, there are plenty of folks who stop in the bar at 10am for a quickie sprtiz instead of the caffe. But of course, the rest of Italy considers Venetians to all be lushes. Try to order a spritz 40K out of Venice and you will be disappointed. Try to order this further afield and you'll get white wine and mineral water, half and half. A truly dreadful mix. Oh, and 2 of these will kick your butt.

I'd go for "calming", or "tasty" (not all booze, of course, but I really only drink stuff I know I'll enjoy), or "mild loosener of social inhibitions", that kind of thing. However, it certainly does make some people into assholes. Those people shouldn't drink. Me, I don't have an iota of "mean drunk guy" in me, I just get goofy and usually slightly funnier. I guess probably not any *less* of an asshole than I usually am-- YMM(&CD)V-- but not an more of one, for sure. Kinda sick of wine right now. It's been my drink of choice since I went mostly off of beer earlier this year to lose some weight (and whaddaya know, down something like 35 pounds, although nobody can tell in the least), but it's sorta lost its charm. It's getting colder so I might switch to reds. I do have a taste for the stuff... can't live in France for half a year without picking up some habits. We have some friends who volunteer at a charity wine tasting in Long Beach every year who end up with crates and crates of wine afterwards, no two bottles alike... it's fun to sample that stuff with them.

The second disc contains the Peter Green cuts that were on the John Mayall album Looking Back and other cuts. I managed to see Fleetwood Mac in 1971, just after Jeremy Spencer left the group to join (or was abducted by)the Children of God cult.
