Dis: Miss Piper, you're probably right about RC. Didn't he say he also posts on J'cans.com? Maybe I'll search it down to see if he's alive.
. . Sth. about you has crossed my mind a time or two: Do you, or did you - up to 10 years ago, have a practice downtown on Peachtree? If yes, then my next question below is for you too.

Dat: Looking through the MTU back pages I saw one D. Montague looking for someone. Dine, I link that name as possibly of Deanery Road, you make such a connection too? I was tempted to drop her (or it could be "him", I guess) an e-mail but didn't.

De odda: Safe travel, RR. Still, yuh coulda lef dat deh coldness up so. Was low 40's overnight; just ketch up a 50 now. Brrrr!

Brata: My subject title "Dis, dat & de odda" brings to mind a joke from Mama (cyaan wait fe ketch wid har in person in a few days!)...

There once was a Hanover goatherd who couldn't count beyond 3, but always kept nine goats. Someone accused him of lying and asked him how he kept track of those beyond 3. He replied, "Simple, man. 1-2-3, dis, dat, de odda, de ram, de ewe, & de wedda*!"
He! He! He!


*Wedda = wether = castrated ram.
