I dunno - my tongue trips over "flancers". Although it's a little easier if the first syllable is pronounced like the dessert (rhymes with "Ron") instead of the intended way (rhymes with "Ran").

Not merely a noted yoga instructress, but a casually alluring rock siren.

casually alluring
Yeah, Alan the booking fellow (and bass player to the stars!) wrote that. I take that to mean that when I set about allurin', I wear khaki's and loafers.

Of course he's right; you are a casually alluring rock siren. Wish I could make it myself, but I don't think I'll manage [big sigh of relief from many quarters].

Re "THE ROCK" pillow, I've been trying to find a superior skateboarding helmet for a friend who cracked his skull in three places ten weeks ago, without a helmet, (and had blood coming out of his ear, and then CSF coming out for two+ days, and was perilously low on sodium by the time we finally talked him into going to the emergency room), (he was in too fragile a condition to physically force into going, though it was certainly tempting on the drive home from the park - after he had refused to go with the EMTs - when he started puking his guts out and still refused to go, instead insisting that I pick up his five year old daughter and drop them at the home he shares with his mother), but, the only helmet model I have found that I trust the padding in is called "THE DAMAGER", which seems kinda sketchy. And I know, the whole thing seems sketchy and irresponsible, but he is an alcoholic and an outstanding skater, and the latter seems the lesser of two endorphin evils, as long as I insist that he wear a (good) helmet and let him know that he can't have both around me. Unfortunately, he's got sole custody of his (sweet kid) daughter cuz his baby momma just got out of jail cuz she didn't try to fight HER chemical dependency. Fortunately, however, it's not really such a fine line between a rock and pillow, for instance, so hopefully this'll be reasonably muddled through, without excess damage.

Bob, sorry to hear about your friend! Yes, "the damager" seems a bit inappropriate...

I know what a bicycle is: it's got two wheels, and a link connecting them (via a ring-like chain) so they work in harmony. So a divorce cycle has two wheels that don't work together, and no ring connecting them, right?

Sorry to go on there, Paula, and he's seemingly alright already, so it wasn't a sob story... even in terms of his daughter - so far. And even a mutual friend at the park, who knew he hadn't been wearing a helmet, said when I was gathering his stuff, "I don't feel sorry for him. But I hope he's okay." Then again, that friend had the top of his skull sawed off and a (they do that?) brain lift at Sloan-Kettering last year, to get at a tumor behind his eye, so no wonder no sympathy. (And I ran across HIM skating ten weeks after that procedure, so it may not be that sketchy to take that other friend skating already... which I, um, did tonight.) But I shouldn't be pestering you for moral guidance;; you got casual alluring to do!

Dan Sallitt told me once that he and a friend figured out that you could improve, or at least increase the amusement quotient of, any film name by adding the word "Big" to the title: Big Citizen Kane, Big Fanny and Alexander...I think the Clarence Gatemouth Brown record should have been called Big Boogie Uproar.
