It's great to hear from you! I'm doing pretty well these days, and I'm glad you are too.
About that post—I guess it is a little unclear! Hahaha! You see, I thought the linked page was funny because of the title of the section: "Tilde Tilde: Tilde". Isn't that just the oddest thing? It reminds me of a marquee I once saw, which read "Abe Vigoda IS Abe Vigoda IN Abe Vigoda: The Abe Vigoda Story", and also of the USENET group, alt.swedish.chef.bork.bork.bork. That's the origin of the post's title!
Ah, I get it now! I guess it's one of those things where you have to be present for the thought process (which is hard to do in someone else's head) in order for it to make sense. It's sort of like when I tell you about cheesecake and then make a joke about my favorite pair of socks (they have polka dots!). I mean, it makes sense to me, but without further explanation, you would just think I was weird. Which I am, but that's something else.
I used to work with a woman named K--- Bork. Neat, huh? She was way cool, but she had a bad knee. :(
Anyway, I've got to go now. The Texas game is coming on and I'm going to treat myself to an afternoon on the couch.
