**E** arth shattering was the revelation I got when looking in the mirror and realizing that if I died my hair blond I’d look like Bo Duke. Now all I can think about is “Why not?” OK, it’s not earth shattering but with this blond hair thing rattling around I couldn’t come up with a better E word. So should I? ---

**F** or the love of all that’s wholesome stop me. **G** oing on another tack, .hack seems to be a deliberately confusing storyline where people who are supposed to be playing a game are not acting like it. Very weird, but still interesting. **H** appy, however, am I that I am not the cook. Plus I eat too much of the food as I make it. **I** f I were to bake a cake it would only be an inch high. Actually I’d probably never bake it, just eat the batter. Mmmm, batter. ---

**R** ise and shine all you a-threaders. Breakfast is served. _Switches to official capacity. Eggs benedict and hashbrowns for **montana cricket** , and for **Twicks** and **koeeoaddi** , nice big bowls of fresh fruit salad, and no watermelon – just strawberries, peaches, pineapple, bananas, grapefruit, the whole juicy nine yards, including some guavas and pomegranites from **Osiris** , and for our fearless and benevolent ruler of the universe **SBS** , since she has paid her dues with stomach distress over the last few days, I think she’s finally ready for a breakfast of blueberry pancakes and corned beef hash, teleported hot and fresh from Jordan’s Restaurant in Bar Harbor, Maine._ Enjoy! ---
