- Not to worry. Speaking in tongues, in fact, is
- one of my favorite activities; the conversation
- can be so stimulating. There are many, many parts
- of my body I like to listen with--I have a
- particular fondness for tongue whispering in my
- ear.

- I wouldn't worry about this one either. This
- _nouvelle_ stuff is just a phase he's going
- through. In the meantime, try to humor him;
- discovering that he can cook [sort of], even if
- it is this silly stuff, is doing wonders for
- his self-esteem. He'll come to his senses just
- as soon as he starts getting hungry.
-
- We'll go visit Uncle Jeff in Alabama real soon
- and have a nice hog roast. Now *that's* bonding.
