My little sister and I made up an elaborate language for our secret club in 1952. It was inspired by Pig Latin, but patterned on Russian sounds. We called it Igpaya Ushunruski, and it had 26 different suffix sounds instead of the single Pig Latin "-ay" suffix.

Depends on my mood. Dire Straights, The Doors, Guns and Roses, Metalica, Beethoven, Mozart, Faure, Samuel Barber, Wagner once in a while, and occasionally the Bee-Gees. (Disco lives!)

Whenever I read a book it is usually my favorite while I'm reading it. But the one I have read twice a year since It was first published is "Illusions" by Richard Bach.

First found the list 3 or 4 years ago. Wnadered away for a while and came back a few months ago.

Shaved my beard off in the 70's. My kids didn't recognize me that morning. Glasses for reading.

Beer in the summer, hot herb tea in the winter. Been nicotine free for 83 days, and there's not a chance I'll ever go back to it. --gary
