Yes, I am starting to think that the Bees should probably be housed separately from the rest of us, in their cozy beehives, so that we can do what we want, not so much whatever the bees said. 

Which Reminds Me

Yes, this is such a bad bad time to be having to talk to Medical Kids. At least their parents, the doctors, are certified in the arts of surgery and medical procedures. But the Medical Kids are not really there in the hospital to help anyone. They have only the Hypocritical oath to commend themselves, which is not saying much. And then there is the picture of Sylvia blowing like a whale and whatever that meant. At first I could not see who was talking about whales, and then later I saw that.

Yes, I do think that I would not be interested in playing the role of gold-digger villainess in some Mexican soap opera. The Venezuelan soap operas were slightly more entertaining, but most all of them with the same basic Cinderella story of switched-at-birth heroine rises from the ashes of poverty to the heights of fame and fortune. Predictable. Ho-hum. Enough about that. Besides which, these things only happen to Mexicans, especially the hired help. There really is no role for white people to play in these internal fantasy dramas of theirs, and I would rather not change that.

Yes, certainly Carol has outdone herself on the topic of banned or burned books, but anyway it may be helpful sometimes to have a list of banned books that might well be avoided to spare myself the hassle, although I was not aware of Anne Frank being on the banned books list. Now you tell me.

Yes, I vaguely remember that when we were living in El Salvador in 1970s, the first McDonald's was built on Boulevard de los Heroes, directly behind the house where we were living at the time. One day Ann Campbell came to our house with two people visiting from New York, and we went with them to the McDonald's behind our house, a great novelty at the time. However, the conversation was forgettable. The two persons from New York had no vocabulary, only F... F... F... I forget what their names were, so I have no way of explaining them or who they were. You would have to ask Ann about that, I have no idea. Just because Ann is Canadian, that does not mean that all U.S. citizens swear like Raymond and Thomas.

Yes, I could not understand who that was online, whether a high school classmate or a demon, who was being very critical of me, because I had been seen reading a certain book, or maybe checked it out of the library. The book was the Diary of Anne Frank, and I read it because it had been recommended, but anyway, that is not to say that I would want to talk about it or say anything about that part of the book. Sometimes these books are important historically, even if there are also some parts that are sort of shocking. Sometimes it is sort of embarrassing to get halfway through a book and suddenly find a discussion of some unpleasant matters. So what about that?

Yes, I vaguely remmeber that one day in high school economics class, our teacher, Dr. DePaul, was telling us about his weekend. He had flown in a plane to see Tikal, the ancient pyramid in nearby Guatemala, and upon arriving there, he was hearing Led Zeppelin music playing on a radio, and he soon found that some students from the class were also there at the same time, maybe Raymond and some other guys, and so he was not able to escape from his students, at least not that weekend.
