Hello all,
When I want to find out something I turn first to the internet (if I don't
have it here in one of my reference books) and then to you. Therefore:
O Great Fount of Wisdom and Knowledge that is the Arachne list,

Hello all,
It must have been because I asked for your wisdom that I found the answer
immediately after I wrote you the question. It seems that a Tulip Tree is
a member of the Magnolia family. I still am not sure what are the trees
that I see in my neighbourhood but at least I can check out
Thanks Jim,
It is that the tulip tree normally has yellow flowers that decides the
matter. What we have here are magnolias and they are just starting to
bloom. Lovely big blooms with petals fading from violet to white on the
tips. The petals are big and waxy and if only they lasted longer
Hi I wanted to thank my Secret Pal from somewhere in Brittain for another
lovely parcel!
It arrived on friday but i was out of town visiting family :-)
The thread snips are wonderful, i've no idea how i coped using regular
scissors before!

I clicked onto the URL that Heather of Abbotsford BC, and saw the blooms of what we in
the South call a Tulip or Yellow Poplar tree. In Virginia, my Magnolia trees bloom in

I often take the blooms and float
Dear Secret Pal, what a surprise when I got home yesterday, a beautiful
bobbin and a pile of spangles.Thank you so much. I love Scotch Thistles,

83 and for chat I have got 55, 56, 57, 60 and 63. I know the issue is
unrelated to mail box size (it would be quite a challenge to come close to
I debated this one long and hard, and decided it was OK to forward to
the entire list, if only by the skin of the, er... teeth. As usual, on
the grounds that it's more funny than it's dirty. Apologies to source

Helen,
That probably indicates a problem at your ISP's end (digests being bounced),
although I'd have to check the server records to make sure. I have received

Personally, I think that, in a modern society, general draft is
excusable only by open and unprovoked invasion of one's country (ie,

The East Texas (and central) magnolias are like Betty Ann's. The next-door
neighbors have one that is just outside my bedroom window (second floor).

Re: A *selective* draft
