Wednesday, November 26, 2008 --- 11:25 a.m.
Incident Report from Madison Police Department:
On Tuesday night, at 11:15 p.m., Madison police responded to an apartment in the 1000 block of East Washington Avenue after a resident found a burglar inside his residence. The man said he had come home, and was in his bedroom, when a woman darted out of his closet. He knocked her down. She got up and ran again. He was able to put himself between the burglar and the apartment door. The burglar responded by grabbing a knife from the kitchen.
At this point the resident decided this was not something over which he wished to get hurt. He backed off the door, and the woman ran out. Several items, including jewelry, were found to be missing from the apartment. The victim says during his contact with the woman she claimed to be a "junkie." He said she had a gravely voice, and smelled of bad flatulence.
Perpetrator is described as a female, white, 40's, 5'4", 150 lbs., brown short hair, wearing a gray t-shirt, and blue pants.

Though his film is like no other baseball movie, it may remind you of Paul Newman's hockey comedy Slap Shot: a knowing look at sport's underbelly - punctuated by jelly-belly laughs. [15 June 1988]
It's just that when a movie is this close, with so much of the sports flavor (co-producer Thom Mount is co-owner of the real Durham Bulls), you like to see it perfect. [15 June 1988]
The movie evokes Howard Hawks (in spirit if not to the letter) with its tight focus on a snug, obsessive world of insiders and camp followers where the exchanges between buddies and sexes have a euphoric stylishness and a giddy sense of ritual.

DENISON, Tex. -- Eddie Papero, a Denison resident, helped save lives in the attacks of September 11th.
"I know you want to save the world."
That's what one man said to Papero years before he became a hero.
Minutes after hearing about the first tower being hit, Eddie, a trained paramedic, ran in to help.
"My heart, my devotion, I'm a medic. I follow the firemen," said Papero.
"I identified myself to the New York City police officers, and I showed them my ID, and I told them what I did, and they said we could use you."
Standing in the lobby of the North Tower, Papero saw the second plane hit. He thought it was an accident, but after 57 hours on Ground Zero, Papero helped all those he could.
He suffered burns and had many operations then, but now he suffers from the memories.
Papero has since left the medical field, and plans on getting married next year, but he says he will never be the same after 9/11.

CROSSVILLE, Tenn. (AP) -- The Cumberland County Board of Education is preparing to take up a proposal to display the Ten Commandments in its schools.
The Crossville Chronicle reports that resident Star Stone says the proposal is all the more relevant in light of last month's school shooting in Connecticut that left 26 people dead.
The state Legislature last year enacted a law to allow public buildings to display the Ten Commandments alongside other "historically significant documents" like the Magna Carta and the Declaration of Independence.
The law refers specifically to public buildings and grounds, but not to schools.
Director of Schools Aarona VanWinkle says that while each of the county's schools has a "Freedom Wall" showing historical documents, they don't currently include the Ten Commandments.

Plan calls for e-care incentives and regulation
The Federal Communication Commission's national strategy for broadband issued today emphasizes health care, including electronic health record adoption and use, health data exchanges, telemedicine and mobile health services.
The National Broadband Plan makes 11 recommendations for using high-speed broadband networks to increase the use of electronic health records, health data exchange and telemedicine, or "e-care."
E-care is defined by the FCC as the electronic exchange of information — data, images and video — help the practice of medicine and advanced analytics. E-care also is referred to as telehealth or telemedicine. When applied in mobile devices, it is sometimes called "MHealth" or "mobile health."
For telemedicine, the FCC also calls for the federal government to expand reimbursements and to remove barriers to adoption by updating regulations to for device approval, credentialing, privileging and licensing.
"Congress and the Secretary of Health and Human Services (HHS) should consider developing a strategy that documents the proven value of e-care technologies, proposes reimbursement reforms that incent their meaningful use and charts a path for their widespread adoption," the plan states.
The FCC suggests working with the Food and Drug Administration to clarify regulatory requirements and the approval process for "converged" devices that are used both for communications and health care.
The plan has garnered the support of the American Telemedicine Association.
"These changes will greatly improve the quality of care, lower costs and improve access to healthcare to all Americans," said Jonathan Linkous, chief executive of the association. "We encourage Congress and the Administration to approve and implement these recommendations without delay."
The plan also sees creating a Health Care Broadband Infrastructure Fund to subsidize health care delivery locations where existing networks aren't sufficient. In addition to hospitals, clinics and doctors' offices, the broadband grants should be made available to nursing homes, health care administrative offices, health care data centers and other locations, the plan said.
The FCC also recommended that the Indian Health Service get up to $29 million a year to upgrade its broadband services.

I would think it would be helpful to have a shorter barrel and use smaller ammo such as 5.56 or something similar. If the list is around five (or even more) it would be helpful.

Commute increases one minute
Date: June 17, 2009
by: Kurt Schultheis | City Editor
Additional traffic findings from the city of Sarasota's bayfront connectivity proposal show that Longboaters traveling from Town Hall to Osprey Avenue will see a one-minute increase in their average 18-minute travel time if roundabouts are constructed on U.S. 41.
City of Sarasota Chief Planner Steve Stancel and a consulting associate presented the findings Tuesday, June 16, at a city of Sarasota workshop.
The extra minute delay, according to the traffic figures, occurs during rush-hour, peak-traffic times.
However, a Longboater heading back to the island from Osprey Avenue, the study shows, will not see an increase in the average commuter time of 18 minutes.
Sarasota Vice Mayor Kelly Kirschner questioned why a barrier-island resident would see a minute jump heading off the island.
The answer?
The proposal calls for the reduction in speed limit from 45 mph to 30 mph.
Despite the delay in traffic time heading south for Longboaters, another slide in the presentation showed that, although travel time from point A to point B will take a minute longer for Longboaters, there will be less of a delay because motorists will not be stopped at a signalized intersection.
The difference in travel time and delay confused some members of the commission.
Despite the increase in travel time, Sarasota Mayor Richard Clapp said the modifications to U.S. 41 "don't have a significant impact" on commuters from the barrier islands.
It was also announced at the meeting that the proposal, which includes five roundabouts on U.S. 41, would cost an estimated $35 million.
Vice Mayor Robert Siekmann was dismayed to learn that the Tuesday workshop did not include the opportunity for public input.
"The structure of the charettes and subsequent meetings have not included a chance for the public to address their concerns or express public input," Siekmann said.
The Florida Department of Transportation, which has supported signalization instead of roundabouts near the bayfront, will make the final decision if the City Commission adopts the plan and approves plans for the project later this year.

Sugar Bunny ♥The diet and the exercise are the important thing, though, not the weight. Some people have larger builds, and that's ok. Even if someone's skinny, that doesn't mean much (except that nobody criticizes them and tells them how to eat) if they eat poorly and don't exercise.

In their time at Southern Lehigh, John Toman and his staff have done a lot of winning. The Spartan football team has made history in recent years with regular season and playoff wins. And they think that can continue this year with some impressive returning talent back to start the 2014 season. The Spartans do have holes to fill, they graduated a lot of big, physical football players who controlled the line of scrimmage for them. But Travis Edmond is back to play quarterback, and the returning players were in the District Championship game last year, so there are plenty of motivated players back for the Spartans.

Carnivora Research International CEO Richard Ostrow responded to an emil I sent requesting status of my order shipment. After a few email, he told me I had highstrung behavior.. Passing judgement on me for asking about my order status.. What???
Here are some of the responses to me. This CEO should not be dealing with customers, and by the way, why is he answering email to customerservice? I removed my email address and name from the info below.
I asked:
My name is ***** ******* and I placed an order with you early this morning.
order yhst-********************* totaling 91.85.
Could you please tell me when this will ship? All my order states is order confirmation as a status.
Thanks in advance
Response by CEO :
Hello ********
Thank you for your confidence.
We received your order this morning. Orders rarely go out the very same
day they're received. It will schedule to ship tomorrow or Wednesday.
At that time you'll get a status on your shipment.

Mr Ostrow,
Thank you for your response.
Please allow me to give you some background. I am a web developer owning and operating many online retail stores, blogs and standard websites. All products ordered at any of my privately owned websites are shipped same or next business day. It is expected for products to ship to the consumer as quickly as possible. That is how I maintain return business.
Perhaps we should get back to the business at hand…
I emailed and telephoned your company after placing my order, to which I have received 2 very different responses to the delay in shipping. Your representative went as far as suggesting I upgrade to second day shipping.. What? You haven't even processed this order, and I'm expected to upgrade my shipping??? If the order had been processed as it would be expected, my products would have been here already or arriving today because I am in Florida.
Please accept my apology in advance for rambling, however.. if the items I ordered aren't shipped today, I would request you cancel my order and issue an immediate refund.
Thanks in advance,

#1 Author of original report
oh man, the CEO is the ONLY one to ever respond
AUTHOR: annt - ()
SUBMITTED: Monday, June 03, 2013POSTED: Monday, June 03, 2013
You are right, ... when was the last time you saw an owner, a CEO, respond to a customer email? Just how few are there employed that you respond.
I demanded a refund, because you couldnt tell me when the product would ship after 3 days had passed.
YOU dont even have the product, I was told it is in clearwater florida.. funny there is no carnivora in clearwater. Sure, you can tell me it is a warehouse, but you can see my concerns in the whole matter.
The bottom line is, just like today with you including unnecessary info, you have lowered yourself to an improper display for a CEO. Like your email, this is inappropriate and improper for a CEO to act. That was the original complaint and remains the complaint today. It should not matter how many email are exchanged, they should ALL be cordial... not just one.
You claim that there are no complaints in BBB. There are 3 BBB reports similar to mine, so I am not the only one to find a problem with your company and product.
You prey on those with MS and Cancers offering some miracle, your product by carnivora is over priced and there are offers accross the web at 50 percent of your pricing.
Are you aware of the new law.. cyberbulling is against the law now, would you like me to send you a copy of the law? or.. post it here?
If you would like to continue this further, I can place all the email up that you sent. Including the ones that stated I have no life and too much time on my hands..
I appreciate your response, at least now everyone can see your responses and know I told the truth.
I lodged a complaint and you bullied..
By the way, you continued to send bullying email for days, one after the other.. For Days.
Are you an owner, employee or ex-employee with either negative or positive information about the company or individual, or can you provide "insider information" on this company?
#2 REBUTTAL Owner of company
The truth regarding this "Ripoff" Report
AUTHOR: Richard - ()
SUBMITTED: Friday, May 10, 2013POSTED: Friday, May 10, 2013
We want the readers of this false "Rip Off" Report to be aware of the very first email response from the owner of the company, which demonstrates a cordial reply to address the buyers concern.
How many people do you know receive responses directly from the owner of the company in this regard?
Annette Lawson ("annt"- Internet name) proceeded to take her alleged complaint to another level after it was clear that the owner said her shipment would be going out Tuesday or Wednesday (See actual emails below).
"Hello Annette,
Thank you for your confidence.
We received your order this morning. Orders rarely go out the very same day they're received. It will schedule to ship tomorrow or Wednesday.At that time you'll get a status on your shipment."
"I actually replied to you as the Owner of the company the very day you placed your order!
Was that not satisfactory? I stated that your order would be shipped Tuesday or Wednesday...
You took it to another level.

Richard Ostrow

CLOSING STATEMENT: I clearly went beyond the call of duty to reply to a prospective customer to satisfy her question. Apparently for this particular prospective customer, that was not enough. Further, NO RIP OFF HAD EVER OCCURRED SINCE WE WERE HAPPY TO REFUND HER MONEY IN A TIMELY MANNER UPON HER REQUEST.
Case closed!
Are you an owner, employee or ex-employee with either negative or positive information about the company or individual, or can you provide "insider information" on this company?

Sooners eager to firm up defense ahead of Bedlam
(Eds: Updates. With AP Photos.) Oklahoma defensive end David King knew what was coming Monday, even before watching film of the Sooners' wild 50-49 win at West Virginia.

With that lofty goal no longer reachable, it's time for the Sooners (8...

I have vacationed in Rincon for the past 8 summers, always staying at the Horned Dorset Primavera. This was our first time at Casa Isleña and we absolutely loved it. The owners are very friendly and helpful. Our bartender was great and made amazing cocktails with housemade, infused liquors like jalapeño spiced vodka. He also gave us recommendations for different restaurants which were all spot on. The tapas menu is a little limited but everything tasted delicious. The breakfast offering includes cereal, pastries, wafffles, yogurt, juice and coffee. Everyone comes out to eat on the terrace which makes it easy strike up a conversation with a fellow guest. The rooms are not luxurious but are always clean and fresh. My biggest complaint would have to be the quality of the mattress. It wasn't terribly uncomfortable but I like having a comfy bed to go back to at night after a day out in the sun. My husband and I stayed in a room on the first floor, right in front of the pool and it was very convenient. We never were never bothered by loud noises or rowdy behavior at night. There are plenty of bars and restuarants, from Thai food to sushi to straight up criollo. Don't be afraid to venture out and explore. All in all, great experience, can't wait to return!

Mr. Acropol
Note: This is the next essay from the previous one, "In the Midst of Muslim Men: Travel Narratives in Istanbul" at http://www.worldpulse.com/node/8646 (I'm still writing the first part.)
Mr. Acropol
I chance upon this restaurant called Best Western Acropol Hotel and Restaurant on my way back to my hotel. It's strategically located since most of the important places to visit like Blue Mosque, Hagia Sophia, Archaeological Museum and Topkapi Palace are just more or less 200 meters away. My feet tell me that they need a rest since the pressure from walking around for four hours inside the Topkapi palace has made my soles so tense, which took me 4 hours, and so, looking at this hotel with this rich dark chocolate colored wooden building makes me crave for rich and delectable food. It's even made mouth-watery since the two bright yellow colored concrete buildings sandwich it. It's probably the same experience as Hansel and Gretel, when they run into the house of the witch, which is made of the finest and tastiest ingredients one can ever imagine. My eyes grow big when I get to see Acropol that looks like Toblerone with its teasingly triangular shape.
The lounge area of the hotel is quite small but cozy. This hotel, after all, is called a "boutique palace". You feel like, you're one of the royalties and they treat you like a deity. The prominent colors and shades of brown, gold and white; from the ceiling to the floor, from chandelier to the sofas. Unlike Topkapi Palace that you feel a bit defamiliarized with everything grand and in excess, this one feels like home. You feel comfortable and satisfied just by sitting and watching the flamboyant ceiling, which was painted by professional artists who specialized in Ottoman art. There are several Caucasians inside, chatting and drinking coffee.
The young concierge approaches me and asks me if I want to try their meals at the Marmara roof restaurant. Roof restaurant sounds exhilarating and without second thought, I find myself following an older guy, who's introduced himself as the manager of the restaurant. He leads me to a seemingly secret room. It's a very small elevator that opens like a mouth, a classic. The feeling of being swallowed by this small room makes me feel dizzy. It so small that at most only 3 people of medium size can squeeze in. The manager is extra nice, always smiling and asking me general things like if I enjoy my stay in Istanbul and so on. I just nod. If I talk, I feel like losing more oxygen by giving out carbon dioxide, and the thought of it makes me suffocate. I cannot wait but to see the roof restaurant where I can imagine the wind is continuously flowing. When we reach the top, I am equally amazed as the one below.
The roof garden restaurant has a low ceiling, made of wood and consistently decorated in Ottoman style. The table cloths and napkins are pristine white, embroidered in golden thread. The curtains and drapes add sophistication to the whole set-up, and of course, the view is perfect. I can see from where I am the Marmara sea, St. Sophia, and the Blue Mosque.
There's no one at the roof restaurant except me and the manager. I feel remote from the world but at the same time connected to myself and the surrounding beauty. He gives me my first glass of Turkish tea as he waits for my order. I just tell him, whatever he recommends, I will take, which makes him feel satisfied. He says, he will give me kebabs which I agree only if it's chicken. I have given up eating beef a long time ago since Lakshmi is one of my favorites. I have been trying to reduce my red meat in take since I started taking meditation and yoga classes, and beef is the easiest to let go.
Mr. Acropol, as I call him since I can't remember his name or I can't pronounce it properly, is already 50 years old, he tells me. He's hair is quite thin and golden platinum in color. He's very neat looking although his teeth are indication of too much drinking and smoking. He says, as a compliment, the Turkish tea is on the house. I tell him how much I like it so much and I feel happy whenever I drink it. He asks me if I want to see how he prepares it, and of course, I say yes.
I follow him to the room at the back of the bar. He then tells me how to prepare the Turkish tea. He instructs me to put the tea powder in a jar, and that I should place it in a cool dry place to avoid it from solidifying. He says four full scoops for a glass of hot water will give the right blend and taste. Turkish tea is always served in Turkish tea set. The tea set is made mostly of glass with gold lid; with silver, bronze or gold coaster, teaspoon, tray and tea pot which are usually etched in typical Turkish style. The glass is the same size as a shot glass for tequila or lemon cello and the effect is just the same, at least for me, probably because of the sugar rush. That's why, when he serves my first glass of Turkish tea, I get really high—floating and happy. He asks me if I want some more. I can't possibly reject the tempting offer. He serves me four more, and the floating feeling suddenly is gone. Though it still tastes good, I'm quite grounded now and especially when he serves my kabob, which tastes nutty and has distinct flavor of herbs and spices. This kabob tastes differently from the kabob I ate in Taksim but equally good. I nibble it as slowly as I can as I try to name all the possible spices and herbs it contains; I can only name cumin, parsley, salt and pepper. Anyway, there is nothing else to do but enjoy the food as much as the scenery since I'm eating here, alone. Everything would have tasted better if there's at least someone to share with.
When I finish my meal, I ask for my bill. The several Turkish teas I ordered are not included in the bill. One glass is 3.50 TRY which is roughly 2.2 USD. I save more than 10 USD! He asks me if I'm in a hurry because if not, I might as well, sit at the porch and feel the breeze. He asks me, "How long have you been here?" and I reply, "Not long and I'm leaving tonight back to my country." He adds, "Then, let Turkey give you a kiss. Sit at the porch and let the Turkish wind kiss you good-bye." Wow! It's poetic! How can I refuse?
So I sit at the porch. The wind does not only kiss me several times, it envelops me like a mother to her lost child. It gives me a shiver down to my spine, almost ticklish. For a few minutes, I lose my mind to the blueness of the Marmara Sea. Until I realize, it's been waving at me. I wave back, only to feel embarrassed remembering that Mr. Acropol is just behind me, witnessing my crazy response.
"I've been managing this hotel for 30 years. I feel old already."
"It seems that you are doing a great job."
"I want to retire and have my own family."
"You mean, you're not married yet?"
"I had no time then, I needed to save up. But now I have the time."
"Then you should find yourself a wife."
"I think I've just found one."
Silence. Then a strong wind gives me be a big hug, I feel the jolt in my body. His eyes staring at me straight seem to carry the blueness of Marmara. My phone rings. It's my alarm. I have to go.
"It's time for me to go. Thank you for the kindness and the service. The food is great, so is the tea."
He accompanies me to the elevator.
I once again say thank you to him. He holds my right hand, kisses it three times. "I love you. Please don't forget me." His hand feels warm. I feel my whole face turns Turkish tea hot. This is already the second time that a guy said "I love you" to me, in a row.
Walking back to the hotel, I feel I have much more to carry than what I shopped for. I don't know what's with the Turkish men, what they see in me. Perhaps their tongues are made sweet by Turkish tea and Turkish delight. I'm coming home sugar high.
Katea, in reading this, I was swept away by the rich details that brought Mr. Acropol to life on the page. With clarity and simplicity, you drew me in to the scene and I could almost taste the tea you made, and feel the Turkish wind kiss my cheeks. I loved this piece and am so excited to read more from you. It's like a chapter in a book that you do not want to put down. With such talent on World Pulse, I am thinking we need to start an author's group where everyone's stories can be woven together into a rich tapestry of prose.

Conservatives believe the immigration reforms should be dealt with in a piece-by-piece manner and focus on border security first. They are concerned legislators are trying to ram through a 1,500 page bill before Americans find out what is really in it, similar to how Obamacare was passed. http://www.breitbart.com/Big-Government/2013/04/12/Rubio-All...

Hello community,
If you clicked on this thread it means that you are interested in becoming a professional League player, be on top teams and compete in major gaming events such as MLG, IPL, etc. (and get chicks).
If this is what you seek, then you came to the right place my friend, for i will teach you how to do it in 13 easy steps. Follow them and you will become a pro in no time:
Get a high end computer.
Although League of Legends does not require a very high end computer, it's nice to have it for tow reasons: 1. It will greatly increase your in game performance; 2. Chicks dig high end computers.
Get a really good internet.
Honestly... If you have a ****ty internet and you play on 150~ ping, you will instantly see a difference in your performance when you get a new and better internet. Now instead of 150 ping, you will have 20~ - 90~ depending on where you live.
You will see that your cs will increase dramatically, and you won't randomly disconnect from the game.
Acquire ELO (2k+).
This is a very important part of your journey of becoming a pro. If your ELO is 1300, you probably won't get picked in a top team. On the other hand, if you have 2100 ELO, you are much closer of becoming a pro player.
Start streaming.
Almost every pro player streams. It's a great way to make money, become popular,and build reputation. Step 3 has to be done before starting step 4. Honestly, who will take you seriously when you have 1200 ELO. Also try interacting with the viewers (buy webcam and mic).
Start building a fan base, get viewers and advertise about your stream (WARNING: this might take some time).
Create a facebook page, a youtube account, a twitter account, advertise your stream on reddit and on the league forums. This will get you more viewers, and thus make you more popular.
Attend major events.
By doing this, you have the chance to talk to your viewers, top players, and even rioters. In this step you have to show the world that you are a very dedicated league player and deserve attention.
Build a connection with important people (rioters, pros).
This is where your social skills and you ability to interact with people come to play. You have to say say things that appeal to the person you're talking to. Give them compliments, point out the good things they did during their career (carried his team, dominated his lane, etc.). Buy him coffee or something when hes on break and so on. Don't forget to talk about you stream and your dedication to Esports.
Get acknowledged by riot and pros.
This happens when people like you, and see the potential of a professional league player in you. The thing you want to aim for when getting acknowledged by a pro is to hear him say "this guy is a scary (Insert champion here)" or "this guy carries games as (insert champion here)" or just "this guy is awesome" on stream. (TIP: watch their stream and queue at the same time to be in their team).
The thing you want to do when trying yo get acknowledged by riot is create guides, post them on the forums, create threads about an interesting subject, and when you see a riot post, you just hit the jackpot. If you continue and it's been a while you started streaming, you will eventually get featured. That is what you want to aim for. (TIP: save at least 5 to 10k RP in your bank you when a rioter watches your stream, you will look like a total badass).
Try out for a position on a major team or a sub.
When a top team start hosting tryouts, don't let the opportunity pass by. If you are worthy enough, you will make it in the team. (P.S. If you got picked as the main player on the team (not sub), then skip to step 13).
Temporarily get rid of the person playing the position you tried out for.
This step will measure the size of your balls. If they are not big enough you can just wait for him to get sick (which might take a while). If not, read below.
WARNING: DO NOT KILL THE GUY. I REPEAT, DO NOT KILL THE GUY. YOU WILL BE THE PRIME SUSPECT IN THE MURDER INVESTIGATION. YOU'RE NO GOOD TO YOUR TEAM WHEN YOU'RE IN JAIL. (Also, it's not cool).
Instead, just poison his meal to temporarily make him sick during a major event and take his place.
Play well and carry your team.
This part is the deciding factor in you career. You have to both play well, AND carry your team to be on par with the rest of the top players. (P.S. If you fail this step, redo steps 10 and 11 until you succeed. But do not do it repeatedly, as it will become very suspicious).
Proceed to get picked by a top team in the need of a new player or become the main player on your team.
Pretty self-explanatory.
Get chicks.
Watch as every girl present in the event run after you.
CONGRATULATIONS!! You are now a professional LoL player.
step 14.... get tossed in jail as they are mostly 12 years old.
Tacos are quite fantastic.
I seem to be having trouble with Step 13...help please
Junior Member
This was a pretty sound guide, but I feel as if step 10 is probably a little too mild. I say just kill the guy, what's the worst that happens.
We might need a subsection for Step 3.
OP is an experienced professional. His top rating was 1200

Literary Upstart Finalist
Debora Kuan
Three days after Thanksgiving, I got sick. I saw stars and white disks, and then cats. Tabby, calico, black.
They'd sit in doorways or prowl over the armoire, tails erect. At night, I'd get in the bath and feel a gentle, chapped hand on my shoulder. Then I'd whip my head around, and nothing. My ears rang.
I called up my dear friend Tess and told her to meet me at the Marlton Diner, a chrome 50s spectacle midway between her house and mine. Shiny, bloated jukebox. Naugahyde stools. Pies the size of pillows. I explained my symptoms in my calm, hospital voice, as I fingered the receiver's little holes. I said, "Tess, it's simple. I'm
She said she'd be there in an hour. She said, "The baby's coming with." Her son never slept, and Tess dragged him everywhere, like a husband.
I left the house in my slippers and drove like a fiend. Wide turns, passing on the right, running reds. At one point, some madman, driving a Volvo with all his windows down and a tiny beagle yelping from the backseat, shouted obscenities at me and gave me the finger. You bet I wasn't going to dream of this world when I was dead.
I got to the diner first. Slid into a booth, took off my gloves, and waited for the waitress to make her way over. She came, crane-like and slow in her white tuxedo shirt and black vest, nametag missing a letter. She had the telltale look of a mother: ghostly, harmed. I could just picture her at home sucking diabetic candy in bed and watching the Late Show, her teenaged son downstairs slipping money out of her purse.
I ordered a cappuccino and told her two were on the way.
When Tess arrived, she looked beautiful, like a female warrior. Eyebrows severely plucked, her long hair released from its usual tight braid. I was seized with the desire to kiss her and call her baby. But not in front of the kid.
Tess took her time, removing her hat, her coat, the kid's hat, the kid's coat. She unfolded her laminated menu, perused the options.
"I could order the Jell-O," she said. Then she looked over at the kid. He was the timid, silent type, and his doll-eyes were big in fear and aimed at me. "Here you go, lover," she said, lifting a packet of jam out of the dispenser on the table and presenting it to him. The kid beamed. He wrapped his little paws around the prize (eyes still glued on me), and then, like an otter sliding off the bank, slithered beneath the table.
"Okay," I said.
"But I don't really want the Jell-O."
The waitress came back. Pen and pad poised, her weight shifted onto one leg. A calico cat curled itself up in the corner.
"I'll just have a hot chocolate," Tess said, looking up.
After the waitress left, Tess put her hands flat on the table and leaned forward conspiratorially. "That's how it starts."
"How what starts?" I said.
"Whatever it is you got."
A hand emerged from under the table and placed the jam packet, now licked clean, in Tess' open palm.
"Also," I said. "my gums are bleeding." I stuck my finger in my mouth and brought it out to show her.
Tess nodded knowingly. "I hate to say it, but I think you need a man."
I paused. "What I need is a holy man. Someone to sit over me and pray and chant and stink up the whole house with incense." I put my cup of cappuccino back on its saucer. All sugar.
"Ha," Tess said. She sipped her hot chocolate and came away with a foamy cream mustache. Bless her sweet-pout lips. Then she reached down and put her hands over the kid's ears. "I mean you need a regular lay."
I mmm'd.
Now the kid was emerging for good. He asked Tess—his hands cupped around her right ear, so I couldn't overhear, but I did—if he could go play with Santa. "All right, but that's not Santa Claus, honey," Tess said.
"That's a mannequin. A dummy, dressed up like a man."
The kid nodded, but seemed not to understand the distinction.
Two weeks later, Tess had found me a man and delivered him to my door. I was still seeing cats, but now there was also a man on my stoop. He's a musician, Tess told me. He's in a band. Glee in her voice.
"Oh, lord," I said. "How old are we?"
"Don't judge yet," Tess said.
The musician was called Gary. He took me out for a drink at Josephine's, where everybody in town went on blind dates, because it was badly lit and had a back door. There was Christmas décor now, and people wearing silly red hats with pom-poms, drinking steamy glasses of buttered rum. I ordered a Bloody Mary, but there was too much pepper in it.
"You don't like your drink," Gary noted. This one was a fast worker. Somehow he had managed to slip his hand onto my thigh.
"I'm full from dinner," I lied, even though giving up the truth would've cost me nothing.
"Oh yeah? What did you have for dinner?"
"I microwaved a hot dog." Then I crossed my legs to get his hand off me. "It was disgusting, to tell you the truth."
He looked a little afraid of me now. The thing about single guys in their late thirties? They were just getting it together. So if you made one little remark with the slightest twinge of acid, they got afraid. They'd think maybe you were a militant one.
"So what did Tess tell you about me?" I said.
"Uh, she said you were pretty and good with kids…"
"Huh," I said. "Did she also tell you that I see things?"
Gary's brow furrowed. I noticed he had a lot of wrinkles around his eyes—I kept thinking "prune-wrinkles"—and then suddenly waves of pity were crashing over me. I had a cinematically vivid image of Gary lying on his beat-up sofa in his underwear, strumming his electric guitar. Then he'd toss it aside and jerk himself off, imagining my mouth around his cock. I wanted to make a run for it.
I glanced behind me. A black cat sauntered across the door.
"You mean, like, hallucinations?" Gary said. "Of what?"
I ran my tongue over my upper teeth, tasting the salty little rivulets of blood.
I told him.
He didn't say anything for a while. Then, "I hate living with cats. The thing you always forget is they shit in your house."
I stared at him.
"Listen," I said, grabbing his right hand. "It was good to meet you—you seem like a good person—"
"What? Are you fucking kidding me?" he spat out the words. "We're just getting started here."
I lowered my chin. "If you have to know, I think I may be dying."
His jaw went a little slack. He believed me. "Oh, God. Can I do something?"
"No," I said, frowning. "Not really." I said I was sorry, leapt up from my seat, and headed toward the last cat I'd seen.
And this I remember clearly, this ambiguously daft parting sentence, which he half-shouted at me, as I bolted from the premises and his person: "I'm glad you told me about the hot dog—"
I didn't turn around.
I got in my car and started driving on 73. There was only one place to go and so I headed there, imagining her nestled in bed in her terry cloth robe, drinking a microwaved mug of milk and nodding off.
When I got to the house, it was late. I parked my car on the street—there was an unknown car behind Tess' in the drive—and walked up the lawn, ready for all manner of confession. In her flowerbed, one of her red garden gnomes was on its side. I righted it, then knocked lightly on the door.
Tess answered after several dead minutes, her cheeks flushed. "What are you doing here?" she hissed. She was wearing the exact robe I'd imagined, clutching it closed at her sternum.
"Tess, please..." I tried.
"Listen. You have to go!" she whispered hoarsely.
Before I could object, the door was in my face.
I turned around in slight shock and faced the street. I could smell snow. Not wanting to get back in the car, I sat on Tess' porch and hugged my knees to my chest.
After a long, wintry silence, a woman emerged from the house next door. She was talking on her cell phone. Suddenly, she began waving her arm at a car approaching from the end of the road. "I see you, I see you," she said. "Do you see me?" Across the road, yellow Christmas lights flashed on and off, outlining a row of shrubs, a set of windows.
