I did know about the Varsity, though. Yeah, naked dogs walking was quite controversial in the day. So I bought a Wave because it was $8 (no DVDs). But today it occurred to me I could stand on it at my high desk while working. Puts the computer too low to be comfortable but that is nothing an AP calculus book didn't solve (since DS is at college, he is not going to notice it is gone). Sorry to make you homesick, Sancho. You know Mary Mac's, it will be here when you want it (and I have never been in the door. Bad Atlantan, I know).

When Mary Macs opened there were several tea rooms in Atlanta. It was a common way for women to make a living. Mary Macs is the only tea room left. The really popular tea room during their heyday was Frances Virginia tearoom. It closed before I was born, but have heard many stories. That one opened I think 20 years before Mary Macs. Someone should write a book about the history of Atlanta's tea rooms.

Shame on you ALL!
My step is never used as anything apart from the purpose for which it was designed. I couldn't bare for it to be used otherwise - the HORROR! Regarding the use of the calculus text....
