Awwww...you have such a lovely, soft voice. This is just the coolest.*g* So glad your holidays have been good so far, and I certainly hope that we all have a wonderful new year of posting, reading, sharing and commenting! *nods enthusiastically*.
Anna *hugs and smooches you*
(Embarassed, but thought I'd admit that I've been pronouncing your name wrong in my head...lol. I'm going to try to fix that,(now that I've heard you say it) but I'm not sure I'll be able to. *hangs head*
Ack! I didn't speak very clearly. It's Ta-bar-kee :) *according to the Secretary of the Kipling Society* *i said this to lunabee, too. i should have spoken more clearly!*
Yis, you must! It was the jackal - Tabaqui, the Dish-licker - and the wolves of India despise Tabaqui because he runs about making mischief, and telling tales, and eating rags and pieces of leather from the village rubbish heaps. But they are afraid of him too, because Tabaqui, more than anyone else in the jungle, is apt to go mad, and then he forgets that he was ever afraid of anyone, and runs through the forest biting everything in his way. Even the tiger runs and hides when little Tabaqui goes mad, for madness is the most disgraceful thing that can overtake a wild creature.

I mean, how can you not want to read stuff like *that*? :)
Wonderful to hear your voice! Have a wonderful holiday and best wishes to your whole family, especially Monstrous. I'm sure she's having a wonderful time!
I *finally* got a moment to listen to your voice post! how exciting to hear your voice--and it's a lovely wonderful voice too! *hugs* you're the very best, beloved! I hope the new year is brings wonderful things to you!
I watch SVU religiously. Never seen "Oz", but I know our beloved Elliot plays Chris Keller, the guy that apparently spends all his *ahem* free time raping Lee Tergeson's character.
Disturbing, no? I mean . . . it's Elliot. . . .
We don't got the special cable channels, either--though, we do get HBO and Starz and we're totally not supposed to. Thank doG Time Warner is too big a conglomerate to notice =D
Heeeee! Okay then. I'm gonna have to see this show some time.
*bounce*
We get 'basic' cable. No Showtimes or any of those movie channels. Which is fine 'cause really - i see the schedules sometimes and i don't want to watch *any* of it.
Mostly we down-load what we want to see, and that generally leads to buying of DVDs. Heh.

What does the name mean, if you don't mind me asking?
no subject

From the pen of the Secretary:
Tabaqui means brown colour from the Hindi word for tobacco "tambaku"--which is the colour of the Jackal.

As is true with most people, i don't much like my voice, but i'm glad it sounded nice on the post.

I had to write to the Kipling Society and ask the Secretary how to pronounce my name, since i'd only ever read it. She set me straight.
