If your not in a funny mood, just go ahead an delete....
I stopped after church for a steak sandwich. Having no one to talk
to, I brought along a copy of the Pittsburgh Magazine that just
happened to be in the car. I was reading a piece on what might it
be like if the French still controlled western Pennsylvania. For one
thing, the author pointed out that there would only be two rivers
instead of three, with what we call the Monongahela just being a
tributary to the other one. About that time the waitress came with
my soda.
Well, you know how it is to try to multi-task as we get older. I
was in the French frame of mind at that point. I couldn't think
whether to say "thank you" or "merci."
And then I get home and there was a animated e-mail cartoon from
Frank Pfuhler about a new virus for senior citizens ... causes us to
send messages before we are finished writing them, to delete instead
of send, to send when we should delete, to send to the wrong
person ... it was called the "c-nile virus."
So go ahead an remember those days when you could do two things at
once, but please, not while you're smoking or frying an egg.
Have a great week.
