"When a donkey kicks a donkey, there may be a broken leg; but that is, practically, the only consequence. Not so when Smith kicks Brown."
Alfred Korzybski
Beth believes that the Golden Rule is the only rule and that time travel can get messy. She *really* dislikes it when people mistakenly use the phrase "Walla" instead of "Voilà". Someday, she thinks, she might like to try living a life similar to Carmen San Diego’s.
Born into the "roaring twenties", I recall when you could buy a black pudding, cup of black-eyed peas, bag of hot taters in their skins with butter on Bury Market, a Woodbine and a match and still get change from a bob. My daughters are both grown up and fled the coop but neither got to be the first woman to open the batting for Lancashire - as their younger dad had fantasied.
I was also reborn as a separate entity after I volunteered for a "study" that would "pay me money" in 1979. My other self teaches High School in Portland Oregon. I used to teach High School in Brooklyn NY. I know Phil. We are both Ducks...but met doing NYCTF teaching fellows and not because we are both Ducks so please don't think that even though you probably already did for a little bit.
I do things in nonsensical orders. I also really, really, really hate Mondays. And Fridays that seem like Mondays.

My heart belongs to sweet potato fries now, Beth. I totally consider those to be not in the fries family despite their name.
