the
LIST
With special guest Pam Platt
The editorial page editor of the
Courier-Journal lists the things
she wouldn't want to get for
Valentine's Day:
1. Slim Whitman's greatest hits. It hurts to
hear a guy hit notes I can't.
2. Speaking of yodeling, nothing
lederhosen-y or dirndl-y in the way of
clothes. Life — and attire — are much better
without strings attached.
3. A jar of spot removal cream for my skin.

On the other (speckled) hand, a bottle for
the rugs is OK because it holds no value
judgments and I do have a dog.
4. An iron. Not even one that shuts off by
itself. Still a sore subject from a milestone
occasion a quarter-century ago. Talk about a
burning image.
5. Anything that needs packing peanuts.
Have you ever tried to get rid of those
things? The very demnition of insanity.
6. A surprise visit by the Chopped judges
to my kitchen. Couldn't take the looks of
disdain in my favorite room.
7. Todd Akin for Dummies. Not even for
smarties.
8. Don't spring for that taxidermied
muskrat. Nothing stuffed except olives for
me.
9. A can of Harley
Davidson Beer from 1985
Bike Week in Daytona Beach,
Fla. Already have one of
those, thanks.
10. Functional government.
Wouldn't have anything to
opine about.
11. Monogrammed anything. Haven't
w w w. k y o m s . c o m
gotten over being called "PP" throughout my
childhood.
12. Another request for another list. :)
