Ken, can you clarify this? ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 14 Oct 1998 23:25:41 -0700 (PDT) From: Robert Glenn Plotner Subject: Re: Do I Tell Her? totally NJC I can't help but think, what would Mickey do? Of course he is a rat and would likely eat the apple, leave droppings in your cupboard, and leave for Disneyworld. You could do that, but then you would have to explain the droppings to your wife when you got back. And what kind of example is that for your children? Leaving droppings in your cupboard and then heading to Disneyworld without a care in the world! You're definitely going to have to think this out more clearly. As far as Disneyworld goes, I think you should discuss this with your wife beforehand. Then if she says "no," you should say "Fine! A stupid apple didn't stop Snow White and it's not going to stop me!" Then put on your Snow White outfit, storm out of the house, squeal away in the car, and drive insanely to the park. Ride all the rides like a crazed transvestite loner, then try to join in the Electric Parade until the Disney security guards tackle you and drag you from the park. When you return home battered and humiliated, you will at least be at peace with yourself. Let your child see you. Make her feel guilty. Real guilty. Threaten to show up at her school in that state unless she stops bringing home apples. Let her know you mean business. She won't respect you, but she'll be very frightened and in the end that's all you can ask for, isn't it?

You know, I waz on the phone earlier with one of my N.O. cousins, discussing my move, and he mentioned the murder. Admitedly, I'm not familiar with his name. >Unfortunately this week, we also lost the legendary Charlie Bering, the >owner of Lu and Charlie's, the first avant garde jazz club in New >Orleans, opened in the seventies. Yeah, saw this one - "accidently" - on one of the N.O. net-news sites. Something about the change of the seasons, particularly Autumn that's seems to make people "leave." Anyway, I'm on my way (to N.O., that is) - just tryin' to get a mortgage (Oh Lord!)
