Mother's Day 2005

Sunday, May. 08, 2005 - 9:43 a.m.

Today is Mother's Day.

I was going to send something to Shani, Br1@n Cl@yt0n's sig-o. She has two daughters.

I wrote to Brian and called Brian a million and a half years ago and asked for a properly spelled and specific name and address for her.

Brian replied FRIDAY AT SIX PM under the heading "I'm a dodohead".

He then gave me her address.

Um, Brian? Dear boy?

I still don't have her last name? Helloooo?

If you want me to send her a card that says 'Shani Nolastname' and offer an explanation, I can do that. Of course it will embarrass the lima beans out of you and I know you hate that, but that seems to be what you want to have happen.

I've been trying to discover who she is through inquiry, but we're talking brick wall here.

Example -- when Brian first told me about her, I started asking questions to find out more:

Me: Where does she live?

Him: Oh, in the middle of nowhere.

Me: Okay... where's the nearest big city to where she lives?...

Him: There aren't any! (Laughter) (& fwiw, this turned out to be true...)

Me: (trying to at least narrow it down) Does she live on Earth?

Him: Yes.

Me: and I've seen her picture so I know she's not inflatable. She's a real person.

Him: (reddening) Yes!

and so on and so forth.

Well, when I finally do obtain her last name, I will send her something really nice.

Nothing else to write about; persistent rumors have Dave's best guy friend Charlie driving up to the Bay Area today or tomorrow to come to Japantown and also tiptoe over to the Jelly Belly factory about an hour east of here. He said he'd ping.

Okay, I think that's it. Have a good Sunday.
