Thanks for the link!
Glad to hear this spider's bite isn't so serious... just nausea and convulsions...

Post #5 - December 13th, 2004, 6:42 pm"...this spider's bite isn't so serious... just nausea and convulsions..." Hmm, ernst, aber nicht hoffnungslos, I guess. But still preferable to imbibing a little tetrodotoxin with your Fugu sashimi, I'd say. On further consideration, I'm taking my grapes the old fashioned way: nunc est bibendum.

Post #7 - December 13th, 2004, 8:17 pmNah, a half a semester of neurophysio as an undergrad (had to drop the course to focus more attention on German 100) was all the prep I needed to be inducted into the sodium-ion-channel-blocker dilettantes club. Besides, I only watch the CSI with Billy Peterson. The Gary Sinise one makes me long for a draft of hemlock.

Post #10 - December 13th, 2004, 8:59 pm"Don Giuseppe" has a beautiful ring, and any self-respecting Napolitano royalist would be flattered, but back in day I was "Peppiniello." My father was "Peppino" and my skinny cousin Joe was "Pepposicca." There is not enough room here to list all the variations on "Antonio" in my family.
Though I was fleetingly in Berlin once, the closest claim I can make to germanic heritage is my maternal Schwytzert
