:) That's probably why I enjoy losing so much time in this thread and the 3 words one.

TPBM has taken a course in formal logic.

No. But I was totally happy when I first found out about Straw Men.
TPBM knows everything she/he needs to know about straw men from the Wizard of Oz.

Straw men, no. But I did learn everything I need to know about lions that way.

TPBM recently heard an interesting new version of Bohemian Rhapsody.

Is that in contrast to ugly free association? I "pretty" much say whatever pops in my head before thinking if that's what you mean.

So, you can believe me when I say this post is 10 inches.
TPBM is looking for the perfect sort of fun fur.

I have a beautiful piece of fun fur. It's all lined and hemmed and everything and has loops for attaching to stuff... I think it was once a collar for a winter coat. I got it at a thrift store to wear as a stole for a costume party... anyways, I'm thinking of turning it into a fur-tility belt for the playa, but I need to test it in the dryer for moopiness.

TPBM has a fertile mind.

4.Fill a large frying pan with about 3/4 inch of shortening or lard. Fry the breads for a few seconds on each side so that they are golden brown.

Crypto: I am busy finding out whether I'm going to fall in love with Shostakovich right now. (Found this cool PBS doc onliine...). Remedios Varo is going to have to get in line.

TPBM knows of a good place where middle-aged nerds can go out dancing and not feel like middle-aged nerds.

Yes I do. More than I ever thought I would when my son brought her home from the pound at 5 weeks old.
