Alright, Demeaning Demeanor, A Little Latin Goes a Long Way, A Nice Question, Is OK Alright? And Beyond the Pale. Very Good, Dear. Now Shut Up and Eat Your Brussels Sprouts. Alexander Heppenheimer, via the Internet. It occurs to me that any question posed as "Who is right: me or my mother?

Issue of March 24, 2004. Immediately. It will be interesting to see whether Mount Carmel, a not-for-profit corporation and part of a Catholic hospital chain that makes all the right noises about health care being a human right and not a commodity, will follow suit. Stay tuned. Spring is coming, it seems, so there will be new photos of springlike things here. Soon Anyone who doubts that I have good reason to rue the coming of spring should read this. And now, on with the show:. Go forth and froth. The bas...

Papa's got a brand new . oh, never mind. Well, Keith, I hate to say this, but I'm afraid the kids are right. I wouldn't be too disturbed about this - after all, even a broken clock is right twice a day, and all that. As to "my bag," it's been slang for "personal style or preference" since the early 1960's, but I've never heard it used to mean "my fault." And "my bag," which comes from the slang of jazz musicians, is unrelated to "holding the bag," which dates all the way back to the 18th century. Anyway,...

nothing: May 2005

Catholic ramblings, random musings, ruminations on parenting, family and marriage, and deliberations on the Tyranny of Relativism. Tuesday, May 31, 2005. I told you about my audition experience here. I really wasn't interested. Hadn't really wanted to audition in the first place. But now they have upped the ante, and offered me the role of Maurice, Belle's father, as the original Maurice had to back out due to a schedule conflict. Maurice. Belle's father. Who sings. (gulp).

Even more comments on language can be read in. For a listing of all of them, click here. For about as long as I can remember, I've had a fascination with the mechanisms of the English language. In junior high school, not only did I diagram sentences. Without complaint, but I even sought out sentences that challenged the adequacy of those arcane grammatical representations taught in English class.
