...guess I should finish with a brief synopsis of the stuff in my room. I have three bed spreads (w/curtains)--Pooh and Tigger playing in the leaves for autumn, Pooh sledding through snowflakes for winter, and Pooh and piglet surrounded by a sunshine and clouds for spring and summer. It's a nice way of bringing the outdoors inside my room. My walls are covered with Winnie the Pooh stick-ups, which are a really nice way of brightening up all the white space.

Except for his piglet squeals, he might have been dead for a minute or two. Children during grand mal attacks seem possessed; in the New Testament, epilepsy is referred to as a "demon." So the mother of an epileptic boy first looks at doctors as exorcists. But as she sees them prescribe a series of harsh medications, each creating side effects that the next is supposed...
...terms and Gingrich had no fallback plan ready. When Gingrich inches into the spotlight lately, it's under the cover of lovable critters. To mark Earth Day last Monday he appeared at the Atlanta zoo with an African elephant. He ended the week on the Tonight Show, cradling a piglet. If it's all a bit Marlin Perkins, esteemed gray eminence of Wild Kingdom, it's also a bit Dr. Doolittle--maybe not the best association for a man whose agenda is stalled...
