"So she wasn't an 'adjustable wench' then, Paul?"
Actually, Aitch, nope. I should clarify that I did not use the word in reference to anyone, but rather in a conversation with a student who was asking me what pirates called their women...I answered and the complainant was within earshot.
Ironically, Juliana came home from school yesterday with a handout featuring a glossary of pirate slang to use today. In it was--you guessed it--"wench".
She went to school today dressed like a pirate. There will be many stuffed parrots in class today, too, judging from what I saw on the playground.
Arrrrrrrrggghghhhhhh!!!!!!

“I say in speeches that a plausible mission of artists is to make people appreciate being alive at least a little bit. I am then asked if I know of any artists who pulled that off. I reply, 'The Beatles did.”

In honor of this day, I went on YouTube and found this video of ELP's great 13-minute-plus epic. Unfortunately, the other people with offices in this wing of the building are actually trying to work, so I had to wear headphones.
