I've been in the presence of Brian Mailman and Ray Bruman while they
discussed the Cabal, sometime back in the 90s, so I think I am already on the list. And if I'm not, well, your list is maybe not the *real* list, kept by the *actual* members of The Cabal. Leila |

Oh well, if the rule is that you don't admit to being a member of the
Cabal, then by claiming membership, I must therefore not Really be a member of the Cabal! I'm just a wannabe, I guess. Further perversity: I really don't think I'm a trollop. Sorry. I just never wanted to be one. (running away with hands covering head) OB Food: dinner tonight at Dad's: stuffed grape leaves from leaves picked wild at Lake Merritt, Oakland. Leila |
