And FYI Brandon,  the Selby site you are referring to is most likely Ms.Criseyde's,  and I can't remember one way or the other  if she has anything like the pictures that are being discussed.

Neither can she. 

I don't think there are any pictures of the houses on the Selby site. There's one of Seaview on my DS Alumni site -- one that has been shamelessly swiped by many people. It was taken by Bobubas and originally appeared on my site with no special effects added. Now it's part of a java applet that makes clouds roll across the photo with the occasional flash of lightning and accompanying thunder.

I was considering majoring in past participles but was so disappointed when I couldn't find even one college that offered even one course in it!

I think that has to do with fear over lawsuits should students take to dangling their participles in class.

LOL!  Indeed!  And isn't SHE an English major?  Or got her MA in English?  Sheesh!  

She has an MA in Creative Writing.

Well, in fairness to her, there's a common misconception that an English degree at any level includes some sort of formal grammar training. It usually doesn't. That's supposed to be taught prior to college (hence the term "grammar school"). The grammar that is covered in college is usually handled in freshman composition courses as a review based on common errors in student papers. There are optional grammar courses that students can take, but they don't count toward the major, and most students take them for enrichment purposes, not because they are passionate about past participles.

G is for grave. Can you dig it? 

You made me think of I think Tarrytown at a HODS panel, where LP kept talking about Angelique being HUNG, and the tag team of Karlen and Selby kept ragging her about Hanged, hung and well hung.....

She repeats the mistake in her piece on Salem for the Bloopers & Treasures DVD; therefore, I consider it part of the bloopers and not part of the treasures. 

Spin, a new film about the reggaeton music scene featuring David Selby as record mogul Rob Polan, will be available on DVD on Tuesday, January 23, 2007.

Among other outlets, it is available from Amazon, and it can also be rented from Netflix.

You can watch the trailer here. The press release about the film's release is here.

C is for clueless Vicki.

K is for Petofi's buddy (Lord) Kitchener. He wasn't a name dropper or anything.
