I've seen both "nanopiglet" and "spriglet" in use. I
prefer the latter.

>Craig, who can't think of much else to say but that

I can. Advice from one who's been there, several times, not that any
advice was asked for, and despite such unsolicited advice being
roundly criticized in here in the past:

Breastfeed as long as you can, and use cloth diapers if at all
possible (if there's a diaper service in your area, that makes it lots
easier). Both are good for you, good for the baby, and cheaper than
paying Big Business for manufactured products to substitute for The
Real Thing(s).

All my best wishes, congratulations to baby and parents.

He's a hunchback, a court jester filled with rage which he vents by
mocking the courtiers whose wives his employer (the Duke)
seduces. When the Duke seduces Rigoletto's daughter (about whom he is
obsessively secretive and protective), R. arranges for him to be
assassinated, but his plans go awry and his daughter is killed
instead.

Egad, but that's depressing... I suppose that's par for the course in
opera, though.

A friend of mine and I once came up with an idea for an opera, adapted
from another medium. "Der Nachtritter" would be about a man obsessed
with avenging the death of his parents (who were murdered when he was
a child) by dressing up as a giant bat and beating up criminals.
Needless to say, this being an opera, at the end he'd either have to
die, or suffer a great loss... (My friend, by the way, is both bi and
an opera buff; she and I share the same birthday (9/24) though not the
same year.)

"Nachtritter" = "Night Knight"... mostly because "Dark Knight" in
German comes out as the much-sillier-sounding "Dunkelritter".

`At the first performance, as we hear, the censor having forbidden the
Baptist's head, Madame Akté danced around a plum pudding. This
delicate regard for national sensibilities contributed in no small
measure to the success of the performance' (London 1910)

Maybe they're waiting for their orientation to manifest.

I know, but sometimes one takes what's there, and my news-server
seems to actually have really deep retention (at least for soc.bi)...
I was idly reviewing past messages - and this one caught my attention.

Besides, sometimes "weird" is all I got lately.

Want to pleasure that special someone? Expiring too quickly? We can
provide you with extra deep retention! Ch3ap, 4ffordable and hell, the
spam filter is already chucking me out, isn't it?

As Hunter Thompson was known to say, "when the going gets weird, the
weird turn pro." I'm almost thinking it's getting to be like that.
