January is named for Janus, the Roman god of gates and doors. He is often depicted as having two faces facing in opposite directions, as we reflect on where we're going and from whence we came. That is why ironic people are often called "Janus-faced". 2006 for me is going to be a year in which I say "from whence" a lot more than "thereof".We had a small Christmas and New Year's week, hosting a little group of people and then joining one. At home we straightened out the leaves of the table. My friend Alicia said, "This table is so long that it's like when you spend the night at Dracula's Castle and he's all the way at the other end of the table from you."
It's good to know people who say things like this in any year. It is a pity she is fleeing the country.
I'm going to Las Vegas in a few days to go to some conventions with a friend of mine. For a while it seeemed like I would have a more objective time than a subjective one because various and sundry clients have not paid up. I got a check the other night, brought it home, and said, "X saved Vegas," to which TAARG replied, "but didn't X also ruin Christmas?"

As I've always told Reni, who needs Christmas when you've got Vegas.
Marty, I have a question that doesn't involve your post:
If I have an IMac that has a DSL land line, and if I bought a wireless router, can I make it so my IMac is still wired, yet my PC laptop (Windows operated) can roam around the house wirelessly?
Can that happen, or do both have to have wireless capabilities in order to work?
