    The band is from LA, California.

    The dingos that the Australian aborigines slept with to keep warm are Australian.

    in order to keep warm, you sleep with dogs (like eskimos do). The colder it gets, the more dogs you need. Really cold is 3 dogs. Sorry, nothing sinister here. Vietnamese cooking uses cats anyway. (sic)

    Dear changeling,

    Sorry for your feeling down over what is our common experience: we're dealing with people at various stages of personal development and they with us.

    I am so different from the man I was one year ago, two years ago. Speaking only for myself, I was so acutely sensitive of others' meaning when they talked [writing here at JWD] that I was often despairing over either misunderstanding them or being misunderstood myself. I really don't know what happened to make me more objective and pragmatic. I simply developed a thicker skin and gave the benefit of the doubt more frequently than not, given the singular nature of "faceless" discussion boards.

    It amounts to, I believe, being realistic about the nature of social interaction - the give and the take, the ebb and flow of human relationships. We often say hurtful things; that's regrettable. I try to remember the following:

    A man's discretion makes him slow to anger,
    And it is his glory to overlook a transgression.

    - Proverbs 19:11, NEW AMERICAN STANDARD BIBLE

    I hope we all can become more civil and self-controlled.

    Love,

    CoCo

    I am not a big fan of Chinese food. BEWARE OF MYSTERY MEAT. One time when I was with some friends in Mexico they served something that I believed was boiled pigs head. That night I thought it was safer to go outside and have street vendors food, and home made hooch. Imagine trying to stuff a tortilla with ground pig nose. DAMN!!!!!!
