It took me days to notice that this thread shoulda been called OZ and NZ.
Yes, Tedster, there ARE a lot of odds and ends here, aren't there? (Naming no names, of course!)

Hev--paulb is the sweetest man in all of Tazmania--an utter delight and privilege to know him!

Oh, duh ... it's taken me this long to figure out what TEd meant! Thanks Jackie!

Thanks also for the personal recommendation - and despite ol' stales belief to the contrary - paulb is an Auzzie so I figure he's orright! Even if he is a Tazwegian ... How many TaZmanian men do you know, Jackie?

You do know of the Australian psychologist and the Kiwi proctologist who went into practice together, specializing in OZ & NZ?

from Iris Murdoch's The green knight (p. 450):

" … I'm going back to dear old Oz where I belong, where the sky is where it ought to be, way up far above in heaven, not sitting on top of your head the way it is here [London]."
