Favorite Music, Artists, Genres:

Favorite Books, Writers, Genres:By default: The Little Brown Handbook and most dictionaries, which I reference daily instead of reading my horoscope. Otherwise: The Forgotten Soldier by Guy Sajer, Microserfs by Douglas Coupland, and the ever-obvious American masterpiece by John Irving, The World According to Garp., This Month: Douglas Coupland, Harry Crews, Molly Ivins, Heather Lende, Mr. Kurt Vonnegut. Still inspired by Roald Dahl's personal history and word scribblings. Likewise, if fire erupted in my house, I would risk life and limb to save my old best friends written by Silverstein and Bemelmans.

Other Affiliations:Dallas Morning News, scheduled contributing writer 2006/7; Cable Talk Show Host; Card-carrying Teamster, although I think the current status of labor leadership is every bit as much of a freakshow circus as the rest of the American and international labor crisis. I also belong to a Dallas based inline skate/bike group of multi-generational misfits who call ourselves "The Log Cabin Crew." And, no, I'm not a tattooed roller derby Barbie.

Actually, I suspect Patti Labelle ATE Tina Turner in a fit of low blood sugar, but that's just based on a YouTube clip I saw of Tina's Grammy performance. I'll send you the $19.95, but all I want from that is an explanation of your near-pathological hatred of pot roast... ;-)

Ha! Ha! I laugh just thinking about what kind of group that would need a lead diggery do player would sound like and get equally nervous saying the word out loud. I think saying, "I've got to play with my diggery do" would draw some attention.
