Hi Ruth,

RH> When he was younger (he didn't say how young), he worked as a
RH> projectionist in a movie theater that showed movies not suitable for
RH> children. ...

Ha!  It sounds like his honorific was used affectionately and with good
humor.

How about you, yourself.  Did you ever have a humorous nickname, and if
you did, is it something you would be willing to share?

RH> A fishing pole is a good cat toy--tie something to the end of the line,
RH> cast and reel in. I've a friend that owned several cats and they all
RH> enjoyed chasing whatever was at the end of the line.

We have something like that in the closet here.  Today i should dig it out
and show our cat a good time.  :-)

RH> for Steve's birthday so we bought a roll at Wegman's. As good as Wegman's
RH> is for a lot of things, their pumpkin roll doesn't measure up to my home
RH> made one. (G)

I would generally prefer home made over store bought, but honestly, any
dessert that gets served to me is a good dessert.  I made this fruit salad
a few days ago and was happy with it:
