I remember. She turned you on to Penzeys.

That's obvious.
Academia aside, there's those many years you spent in France
growing up. The best most people can boast of is junior year
abroad.
You must have become fluent when you were there. Still, I know
how quickly a language can be forgotten if it isn't spoken
regularly.
Over a decade after my years of high school and college
French, I spent a month bicycling around France with an
additonal two weeks in Paris.
I could cope, but I had nothing like the conversational
ability I once had. How about you? Has yours, like mine, faded
away, little by little?

Yeah, I really liked the True Grit with Jeff Bridges.
I wonder if it isn't the best Western ever.
But wait...
What about all the classics from the 30s, 40s, & 50s?
And Tombstone - I don't think anyone's done a better Doc
Holiday than Val Kilmer.
Then there's Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid.
And all those Clint Eastwood "spaghetti" Westerns.
And the Wild Bunch. You can't forget about the Wild Bunch.
And...

PS I'm almost half-way through _Consider the Fork: A History
of How We Cook and Eat_. It's a good read, even without a
faculty card at Widener. ;-)
PPS Did you know that the Widener for whom the library was
named died on the Titanic?
