tsuwm helpfully points out, in reference to a site for the party that North Dakota should be the place...it's centrally located.

In the book Black Elk Speaks Black Elk, Lakota religious man, had occasion to refer to a certain place as the center of the Earth. He then noted that every place is the center of the Earth but that some places do a better job of it than others.

I'll add my warmest congratulations to the growing list, and wish you both nothing but the best. What an exciting development and what a milestone for AWADtalk! The little community we have here becomes tighter and closer everyday, while newcomers are still warmly welcomed. I am so happy for you both.

faldage foments In the book Black Elk Speaks Black Elk, Lakota religious man, had occasion to refer to a certain place as the center of the Earth. He then noted that every place is the center of the Earth but that some places do a better job of it than others.

1. Black Elk was a medicine man of the Oglala (a.k.a. Lakota, or Dakota) Sioux tribe
2. I lived for a few years in Lakota, ND
3. Rugby, ND is promoted as the geographical center of N. America

all of which goes to support Black Elk's conclusion.

As many of YOU may have suspected, I am among the clueless ones! But, obviously, all is possible with AWADtalk! May I add my heartiest congratulations, AnnaS and Faldage, along with wishes for every happiness.

Blessings on your both, from one lover to two others. I will have to research the canons to determine if I may offer to solemnize your vows over this net, perhaps on the chat thing that Jackie piloted. Ain't love grand?

Worse verse for the doggerel bag --
For the Affianced: A HYMN TO THEM

Anna

Was Anna, ere Anna SAW?
Saw David, did Anna
Anna WAS!!!

David

Was David, ere David SAW?
Saw Anna, did David
David WAS!!

And, sans dout, a ring was Anna's Trophy !!

( Perhaps the pellogical philogolists of AWAD can unScribble this anastrophitic, palindromoidically hyper-haikuoidal semi-sonnette into..... the nearest dustbin.)

- The Putatively Poetaster Laureaster of AWAD -
(Until poetic license is revoked for writing whilst intoxicated)

BTW, Faldage, have you considered an island honeymoon? (Able was I ere I saw Elba.)

My tardy but hearty congratulations to you both!

I have to agree with maverick and others, this really feels like a coming of age for AWAD, as well as a happy moment in real life (out there in the big room with no walls).

Mille felicidades für vous both!
