Oops, there's a typo - or maybe a Freudian slip - in my last post. I meant to say, "Having lived," not having loved!
I need a proofreader!!! Or a girlfriend. Or a shrink. Or a brain...

Orchids on the table in the center piece. A nice avocado salad for starters.

But if they're drinking breve grandes they get points for oxymoronicity.

I think i would say Kigh (to rhyme with high) yoat (to rhyme with goat)
but I might sometimes say kigh yoat ee -- I am not sure which i would say-- i think it might be "reflective" and I might mirror what is being said to me. Its not often some one in NY would need to generate a sentence with Coyote in it -- but there was a big news story 2 years ago, when a coyote from upstate came down to visit the big city-- he was found in one of the local parks..

And no matter how you pronounce it, they have spread very widely in the past fifty years, becoming a problem for people who have pets and livestock killed by them. An animal control officer told my wife that only a few hundred yards from her sheep fold there was a coyote den, with over a dozen pet collars outside it. But since they also eat the mice that are part of the Lyme Disease chain, they are not all bad.

"Several Native American Nations call Coyote 'The Trickster'"
Certain Native American *anthropologists* may call him "Trickster;" one Native American nation called him "coyotl."
Coy, but true.
