[Vision2020] Game postponed due to Jenny Geddes

[DonaldH675 at aol.com]

Visionaries:
 
My husband, who has a nodding acquaintance with military tactics, tells me  
that surprise is a key element in a winning campaign.   And so,  although I 
invited Doug to play a game of catch  -- and some Visionaries may have a passing 
interest in watching  me pitch a no-hitter to a no-brainer -- I sense the need 
for a  larger playing field, one with more seating for the fans.   The  game 
will be postponed -- just a little while.
 
Oh, and just one more thing, Blogstalker; let the boss that the spirit of  
Jenny Geddes is alive and well and living about 10 miles east of  Moscow.  Have 
him check out my new, slightly  paraphrased tag-line.  And, just in case he 
can't translate it,  despite all of that Braveheart blood flowing in his 
arteriosclerotic  vessels, (you can't feast forever without some vascular 
consequences) I've put  the contemporary English below.

"Deil colic the wame o’ ye, fause thief; daur ye say leas in my  lug?"  
Jenny  Geddes 
"The devil cause you severe  pain and flatulent distention of your abdomen, 
false thief: dare you  say lies in my ear?"

Note: For those who don't know about Jenny Geddes, she's an interesting  
character, and gets far to little credit for her bold stance against the attempt  
by the British to re-institute the Church of England as the national  religion 
of Scotland.  Jenny is a model for anyone who opposes the mixture  of church 
and state.  I ran across the history of Jenny Geddes many years  ago, and 
always knew that her example and words would come in handy some  day.
