Christine,
Congratulations! In the first paragraph of this your post to Alexa, I believe you have managed to set the women's movement--if not feminism (two different things, folks)--back to before the days of Joan of Arc! I am speechless!
Thanks for the URL to the SF Chronicle article, but it was not necessary. you may recall, I read the Chron religiously, In fact, an affinity for the SF Chronicle may be one of perhaps five things in the whole of the universe on which we can agree.
Thank you for the URLs to wherever and whatever regarding The Crisis in the White House. It is by choice that I am not keeping up with the latest breaking news or otherwise following this heart-wrenching story--a feat of some doing, I might add, much like trying to avoid sand at the beach. It holds no interest for me beyond what can be found on the "Boink" thread. I think it is much ado about nothing, as I have indicated in recent posts on this very thread. As ol' Whatsername used to say, "I simply don't care," and as John Hartford wrote during the Summer of Love, "Have mercy on my poor old prurient interests." John wrote another song about that time (1967), "Like Unto a Mockingbird," and about now its lyrics seem quite timely and apropos.
Christine, 40 lashes! As an English major, you of all people should know to capitalize "President," even if you don't like the . . . ah . . . holder of that office.
