BELIEVE IT OR NOT THEY'RE TALKING ABOUT HER IN TIJUANA (aka TIGUEX) because when the U:S:sneezes then Mexico gets pneumonia.... National Security Advisor Condoleezza Rice gives her opening statement before the 9-11 commission in the Hart Senate office building on Capitol Hill in Washington April 8, 2004. Rice on Thursday told the commission investigating the Sept. 11 attacks the U.S. government's response to the terrorism threat was insufficient across several administrations. REUTERS/Larry Downing

not apo strophe remember believe it or not they're talking about her in Tijuana and I quote her picture for educational purposes only thank you very much Reuters and Larry Downing there is a mountain range in the southern ends of the peninsula of Baja California called Sierra de la Giganta, mountains of the giant woman and well, this picture looming over the internet today makes me think of how this young woman, apparently an intellectual giant, is today looming over the news. I, personally was totally offended by the Doonsberry cartoon of day before yesterday which, as usual, portrayed our invisible president as an idiot and a fool and stupid and now, a new wrinkle too, too, two, to,

Garry Trudeau now says PREs.Bush #2 es un racista pues ay que cochino fracking insulting cartoonist Gary Trudeau I think you have gone tooooo far this time (wonder how many readers love him more than ever, however....) ay caray seņor caricacacacaturista mmm-hmmmm no wonder my local fishwrap puts you on the editorial page instead of with the "other" comix heh heh heh

Writing.

writing a diary every day or three on-line gives one a repeated opportunity to decide how to shape a page, i.e. how to layout a page - whatever "page" may be, yeah, it gives me to chance to define for myself, over and over and over again, what is a page, as well as

what is writing eh?          Eh.

Gives me the opportunity.   Gives you.   Go ahead, try it.   Maybe you'll like it.   Yahoo geocities will give you FIFTEEENNNN MEGABYTES free if you agree to fill out their forms and follow their rules and have their advertisements appear in the upper right of your pages like these do here.

THAT FACT in fact is ONE of the parameters which shape my pages, leading me to make my pages here appear before you very very often as tables whose effective width is 85%.

THAT 85% WIDTH is thus a yardstick across the screen from the left margin.   THUS a parameter of what a page is.

I am hustling around trying to prepare a manuscript for AHINGA press contest whose deadline is Saturday May 1st.  Wish me luck.
