They held each other then in that ordained nearness in which self is lost, self and other becoming one, one against cold desperate death and cold ravenous life, in that nimbus of heat and light, that ravish of courtship, that covenant which would be theirs for ever and yet never theirs, like flowers that are hatched in the snows. --Edna O'Brien, Wild Decembers Neither of my parents understands how an answering machine works. When my mother leaves me a message she's actually trapped inside the machine. It is just like a desperate cry, "Carol? Carol? Are you there? I'm in the machine." And my father's even worse. He leaves me messages like this, "Uh, tell her that her father called." --Caroline Rhea I think that's how Chicago got started.
