Being angered by Bob's drunken
action,
Stout Sir Bill tested Newton's
reaction.
With the force Will imparted,
Robert's motion was started.
And his buns pierced the wall by a
fraction.
In the night on the north Texas
plain,
The McNuggets became young
Bob's bane.
Mixed tequila and beer,
Made his tummy feel queer,
And his head o'er the seat arm did
crane.
Those asleep on the bus came
awake
While our Rob several heaves he
did make.
Big Mac and fries
Reappeared 'fore our eyes
As leave of his meal Bob did take.

To the Red Queen and the White
Queen: I thank you for your offer
and your advice. Your biscuits,
however, would not refresh me as
they are in all probability too dry and
misshapen from being taken to the
eighth square in far too many
matches. Go peddle your cookies
elsewhere.

Dear members of the RG/ LSG (and
guests):
My absence at the 2/20 meeting
was due mostly to my reaction to the
suicide death of Dr. Nanette
Bruckner (a feminist, lesbian,
therapist, and professor of Women's
Studies at UH/'Clear Lake). The
universe was shaken and the
reverberations continue. I would like
to come to the meeting scheduled for
3/13 to speak with you about life,
death, purpose, oppression,
support,healers, and healing.
Sincerely,
Kris Halstead
Therapist/ Educator
