Hi! Here’s what I want to do. In this post I shall include a letter to a friend and list some topics I may further wax upon. Also some email addresses landed in my lap – I’m working on a message.

Dear Nxxxx,

Wow! These dinners are electric, and I don’t like it when they end.
People say stupid things, and email never goes away. So speaking for myself, maybe I’ll do better with the blogs. I mentioned the blog thing and it raises the issue of how to combine my personal life with my internet reality. Thank you for expressing an interest in what I might have to say.
Other topics: how many meals can I …(self censor), if I pay, if any …(self censor) is generated. Also, the answer to my question, “How can we make the world a better place?” This is suitable material for the blog.
I’m sorry that it took so long to mail back to you. You know my last was rejected. I’m still thinking of how to publicize the blog, and since my social position is so bad, how things have worked out, I’m still thinking how one world affects the other.
I’m still thinking of you and this business, tonight.
Your friend,
Xxxxxxxx

Answer what can do
The answer to the question, “What can we do, if we band together, to make the world a better place?” –from two places, was, “Stop the War.”


Keep receipt, pay cash or card
To me it seems, that the above activity qualifies the dining prearranged, as a business meeting. I did not keep the receipt to write off the expenses I paid – for a poor friend who showed up broke (and my own meal.) I prefer to use cash because I think it keeps the economy humming better. However, if I get to much grief from restaurants, I may use a debit card, which may be better for record keeping purposes. I didn’t keep the receipt for $24 including tip.


Share blog with persons already known or publicize other ways.
I’m leaning more toward the view any publicity, good or bad, can be helpful.


Pre-Bush speech
This meeting was before the Bush Speech, and I did not want to prejudge before the long awaited response to the Baker Hamilton Iraq Study Group findings.


Post-Bush speech
We waited for this? The neo-con perspective is truly frightening, with the upside that maybe we will get to use all our heavy duty aircraft and bombs to quickly vanquish the infidels. On the ground, it is hell and horrific, this kicking down doors and walking around as bull’s-eye target practice. And as somebody else finally said, riding around to get blown up by ied’s (with an inch of dirt on top, I add) sucks.


Murder
So I attend a twelve step meeting, and I think it is the white cops later who yell, “They killed her.” After they accost me with the feminine name of another accomplice(/victim?) I feel them guys, those other guys, are just the ones who would do it.


Cabala
Dear Sirs: I would like to attend your Cabala class, but the $80 fee will be a hardship. Can we manage a reduction and/or deferred payment schedule?

Priests
The Bishop came to my parish and I didn’t tell him how the pastor gave me poison Holy Communion, back a little while.
