every advantage has it's disadvantage. whoever guesses this quote and is not from holland gets a mix-cd with dutch and belgium bands.
While it's actually an old English proverb, it was uttered by Dutch ex-football star Johan Cruijff, and I assume that's to whom you are referring. (and I'm american :) Today, my socio prof taught me the secret to appearing very edified in any situation: rub your chin thoughtfully and say, with conviction, "Well, *actually*, it's a little more complicated than that." I tried it twice today, and lo and behold -- I like that phrase, 'lo and behold', it's great for hyperbolic narratives -- it worked quite well. I will be in trouble, however, if someone ever asks me to explain *why* exactly it's more complicated. And Kenneth is now my best friend because he loves me. I will assume he loves me because I need someone on the list to love me, and Kenneths as good as any. `er`n PS -- why is Sinister neglecting to post my mails? Most unusual. (and if this has gone through a bunch of times, I appologize. I only sent it twice, I promise). PPS -- how is a duvet really any different from a blanket? On my bed, I have a big comforter, flannel sheets, and light blanket (all of which I use to build a little nest everynight. And yes, I turn around three times before I curl up). Is there something special about a duvet that would offer me a fundamentally better sleep experience? And, if so, could I measure this quantitatively? _____________________________________________________________ Are you lazy?
