Was it Thoreau? Who said beware of a profession that requires new clothes?
Or more exactly after a google: Beware of all enterprises that require a new set of clothes.
Wish me luck.... 15502. Magoseph - 6/16/2005 7:57:46 AM That's terrific, Ulgine-Bonne chance! 15503. Ulgine Barrows - 6/16/2005 8:20:42 AM Hi Magoseph!
What's your favorite shade of flower? 15504. Ulgine Barrows - 6/16/2005 8:31:05 AM Purple, here.
Yellow is a close second.
Red & Pink last place. 15505. Magoseph - 6/16/2005 8:43:50 AM I had to think about this--I'd say white. I love lillies of the valley, camelias and orchids. 15506. Macnas - 6/16/2005 8:50:04 AM Well done UB, best of luck. 15507. Ulgine Barrows - 6/16/2005 8:58:51 AM Ah, you're a gardener after my own heart.
White sets off EVERYthing. 15508. Ulgine Barrows - 6/16/2005 9:03:37 AM Macnas, your advice to not panic ---thankx!
It's going unheeeded, all the same. 15509. alistairconnor - 6/16/2005 9:54:35 AM Tell us more bout that job!
Beware of all enterprises that require a new set of clothes.
A man after my heart, this Thoreau... it's about time I read him. But I fear I may be getting into such enterprises.
Not ones which require fluttery skirts, in case you're wondering... but conceivably something that will pass for a suit and tie. An old friend and colleague who I haven't seen for a couple of years, but was thinking of calling this week... calls me with the prospect of an interesting job. 15510. alistairconnor - 6/16/2005 9:57:12 AM Mago :
La dame aux camélias?
No, I think you're
Le lys dans la vallée.
I'll take Balzac over Dumas. 15511. Magoseph - 6/16/2005 10:22:15 AM I saw two movies with Suzanne Flon--have you seen some of her work, Ali? 15512. Magoseph - 6/16/2005 10:23:11 AM I saw L'Été meurtrier and La fleur du mal, this last recently.
15513. Magoseph - 6/16/2005 10:29:05 AM You're right, Ali, Balzac is my man. 15514. Magoseph - 6/16/2005 10:30:00 AM But you know, l'amour impossible was never in my repertoire. 15515. Magoseph - 6/16/2005 10:33:38 AM Where is the locale for two summer olympics to date? 15516. Magoseph - 6/16/2005 2:38:29 PM I couldn't get in for a while--so I mailed the Gatekeeper, but then I found that I could get in on IE, for goodness sakes! 15517. Magoseph - 6/16/2005 2:40:18 PM I still can't get in on Firefox. I wonder why. 15518. wabbit - 6/16/2005 3:12:27 PM Go to Tools > Options > Privacy (on the left) and see what your Cookies settings are - I have both boxes checked (Allow sites to set cookies and for originating site only) 15519. Magoseph - 6/16/2005 3:18:44 PM Thank you, wabbit, got it right this time. 15520. arkymalarky - 6/16/2005 5:18:10 PM I think you'd really like Thoreau, Alistair. I finally got Bob to read Walden last year and he loved it.
