Beth L... and Margie S. LOL... Geee.. I DO owe Margie an apology. I thought a "gorm" was a Klingon dessert! But then, I don't know a whole heckuva lot about them Klingons. I gotta tell ya tho, that my spell-checker has NOT been happy with this thread of conversation! <grin> Barb Mallut "Lil_Honey" on the PD Chat [log in to unmask] ---------- From: PARKINSN: Parkinson's Disease - Information Exchange Network on behalf of elizabeth leslie Sent: Tuesday, January 28, 1997 9:08 PM To: Multiple recipients of list PARKINSN Subject: Re: Barb's Response to Stan's Insomnia Barb - I'm glad you jumped in and helped JP out! But now you'll have to apologise to Margie for not noticin' that her 'gorm' is not a figment of her imagination, but her truly subtle entry into the game via the word 'gormless' meaning 'lacking sense or discernment'.
