Maybe I need to read those threads again. Tell me again why Eckler's is the place to be that morning? What time does the racing start in Orlando? I'm actually gonna race this time, what with all the tranny junk figured out and all

<another example of Chris' help. I'm convinced he's a Saint, but not from NOLA>

I think the drag race is the 7th, my bday is the 13th, and the 15th is the Ecklers show.

Tudor.

Here's a Merriam-Webster shot at it:

One entry found for altruism.


Main Entry: al·tru·ism
Pronunciation: 'al-tru-"i-z&m
Etymology: French altruisme, from autrui other people, from Old French, oblique case form of autre other, from Latin alter
1 : unselfish regard for or devotion to the welfare of others
2 : behavior by an animal that is not beneficial to or may be harmful to itself but that benefits others of its species

- al·tru·ist /-tru-ist/ noun
- al·tru·is·tic /"al-tru-'is-tik/ adjective
- al·tru·is·ti·cal·ly /-ti-k(&-)lE/ adverb




btw, my AV hasn't changed for 6mo.
