Mr.. Gesotti Sir, proud West Virginian son of an Italian immigrant 'n a hillbilly, legendary for hanging out on Saturday nights in the computer science lab whilst in collage, and who grew up to be a full-fledged, bona fide engineering geek (did I miss something?) <smirk> You name the date and time and it's a date, Phil! Errrrr.... provided I can get over to Nordstrom's and pick up and new outfit to wear on this momentous occasion. Let's hear it from them List-folks who've meet this West Virginian Wonderkind before..... Will MY sterling reputation be compromised if I'm seen with the aforementioned "proud Italian?" (Ohhh, I looove Eyetalian food!) <YUMMY!> I mean, like he's not gonna show up at my door in plaid slacks and paisley shirt with a slide rule in the pocket, is he? <shuddering> <grin> Say, Phil... you mean you've ALREADY been to the West Coast and DIDN'T call lay a "Howdy" on me? Sheeeesh - half the List has passed thru this city at one time or 'nother since I joined the List about 6 years ago, and THEY all call and/or visit. HUMPH! Well POOH POOH on you! And heck.... I just lost-my-lunch a coupla-three times (ok, so maybe 4 or 5 times) after taking my daily selegiline some years ago. Boy, was that ever good incentive to stop taking THAT drug, and I've never missed it, either! (Uhhh, is THAT what I'm remembered amongst my peers on the List for?) <GROAN> Sooo, Phil.... should I sit here holding my breath awaiting your arrival (as in are ya planning on coming to the West Coast SOON, or is this memorable event gonna be in the distant future? (Waving red flag in front of the engineering-geek) <grinning, ducking & running> A girl needs to know... polishing her Nordie's charge card) <giggling at this whole thing> Barb Mallut [log in to unmask] -----Original Message----- From: Phil E.Gesotti <[log in to unmask]> To: [log in to unmask] <[log in to unmask]> Date: Friday, February 18, 2000 2:06 PM Subject: Re: Malluted Pictures and Drawings >Barb Mallut wrote: > >">WOWIE!
