On an "off similar" tack, I forgot to mention that the New Orleans DeMonaco crime family is Creole -- as native American as it gets! Dave

You're right, tatula. There's even a crime family in New Orleans by the name of De Monaco. NO RELATION AT ALL! Dave

Yeah! Sort of frightening, isn't it! Dave

A Question Of Prayers Out of curiosity, does anyone here happen to know some of the prayers of kings, queens, sultans, etc.? I'm NOT trying to engage in controversy, because their prayes are a part of their respective histories. Dave

CasiraghiTrio, it's best worded thus: All too many of our universities fail to be competitive. I conducted research work at one U which caused many of my students to suffer physical exhaustion, and I think that faculty probably ate their students at another U listed above! Dave

Skydragon, I'm beginning to see your point in Harry's going to Iraq. Hope you got my PM. Dave

Before we send Harry to Iraq it is important that we understand the exact nature of this conflict. This is not a war; The US is involved as an interim in this clash between theologies, politics and cultures, as well as those deemed terrorists. Contrary to most belief, The US has very FEW ARMY...

SAID IN HUMOR: Now I know why we're giving each other such a hard time! I was ARMY, and you and your friends are MARINES! GRIN! But I would really prefer that he not go to war, but that he beat up your laughing friends! GRIN! Dave

Let's agree to disagree. For the record, DELTA retrained SAS. Ask your friends. Dave

With all sincere and due respect, SAS were in Nam; most freaked out. Project DELTA was to take the place of Reg. ARMY, NAVY, CG, MARINE, USAF and ally troops, including Aussie and New Zealand Forces, who couldn't handle the carnage. Iraq is not an ORDINARY war; it is a political mess. This kid...

No man should ever see war. I was 1054th and 1057th Special Ops in Nam, commonly called Op DELTA and DELTA FORCE by civilians ignorant of Spec Ops, and I awaken to every face whom I killed. If this kid goes to a real mess like Iraq and does things that aren't "toy boy" war games, then England...

Gee! We're some of the very few who HAVE NOT met her! Dave

... and as such, the laws of all too many countries become ad hoc in light of this ruling, and devolve further into well-formed tools of threat and intimidation. "Lady" Caroline really blew this one! For this reason, no one shall ever see The US considering so-called world courts as nothing...

For you fans, here's my contribution: Paris Fashion Week Parties: Party Coverage on Style.com Being a male, I do feel strange reading an online mag for women! Dave HAL

Bob, these are simple series and gradient problems. We'll have to get more complex, e.g., "What's the Grothendieck cohomolgy group of Z[X,Y]mod(X+Y+1/X+Y-1)?" and: Which sections of H(4) over Minkowski space define photons off mass shell constraints? Dave

She's studying comparative philosophy. The text she uses is by James Garson (Co-Joint Prof. at U's of Houston and Tulane), entitled, "Comparative Philosphy," Hermann Press. Topics include syllogistic and modal comparison and contrast of Boole, Satre, Van Manen, Ouspensky, Hegel, etc. The text...

OH, NO! Is she going to have ANOTHER make-believe baby again? Small wonder that she lost her figure and that posture is bad! (MAKE BELIEVE!) Dave "I" before "E," except when "E" is before "I."

Rosana, I'll be more than glad to dress either one of them for you! Dave

I wonder what Pierre thought about his mother dating older men! Dave/7.1299548321 - 6.001276543 = $3.50 So I'm not a good comedian! SHOOT ME!/3.187543023 + $1.95 = ?

Her remark comes from an old story about a young boy who had only one glass of water to put out a fire. As the story goes on, others noticed the young boy in his ostensibly futile effort, and took their glasses of water to put out the fire. It's a plea for more involvement. Her riches are...

If I were still ARMY and if I still had my health, I wouldn't mind a three-day pass with that Eugenie Niarchos. She looks like she's quite familiar with with the phrase, "Out behind the barn ... !" Dave

Wet suit? Oh, no! He sought legal recouse against a dolphin! Dave

WOW! Do they just file suits randomly, or is there some "sane" strategy to their suits? Nice work if you can get it! Dave

I still have mixed feelings about these suits, e. g., she did the wrong thing for the right reason. But is she going to file suit against the whole world? In the US, Princess Caroline is referred to by all to many reporters as "the has-been, best dressed dominatrix." But that's by people who...

After musing over the implications of this ruling, I came to this conclusion: the ruling is NOT the issue; rather, it is the the sign of a young royal family taking action on their own for the first time without their father, possibly making mistakes -- or not -- while being held to a remarkably...
