Subject: The following quotation is taken from Dragonfly In Amber by Diana Gabaldon. Copyright 1992 All Rights Reserved. Chapter 36, Prestonpans:

"You're looking very well...niece." from the corner of my eye, I saw Charles's mouth drop open.

"You aren't," I said bluntly.

He glanced dispassionately down at the boat and twisted legs. And 100 years time, they would call this disease after it's most famous sufferer -- the Toulouse-Lautrec syndrome.

"No," he said. "But then, it's been two years since you saw me last. Mrs Duncan estimated my survival at less than two years, then."

I took a swallow of the brandy. One of the best. Charles was anxious.

"I shouldn't have thought you'd put much stock in a witch's curse," I said.

[> Cait, I was texting with kgp last night and said I'd do half of the next week, which is actually THIS week. Ummmmm... oops. Driving back from dropping my grandson to his mother's, it hit me. OH SHYTE! THIS IS SUNDAY AND I WAS BLISSFULLY OUT IN THE OZONE. I am so so sorry. What a dork! I'll do the next few days, unless you had planned to, which I think you hadn't. -- Betsy BFS, Sun, March 26 2023, 12:33:43

[> [> Cait offered to do this whole week. My mistake, Betsy. Can you take the week of April 16?? I'm the one messaging after a half bottle of wine. 😎 -- kgp, Sun, March 26 2023, 14:04:59

[> I'm glad you are taking this week. DIA is under-represented. I like that Claire is never intimidated by Colum. -- kgp, Sun, March 26 2023, 14:06:38

[> [> And it seems like she knows right off the bat that Column is the brains of the outfit and not as superstitious as the others. He knew there was “something” about her but he was more subtle trying to find out what it was. -- Kathy in PA, Sun, March 26 2023, 15:35:59

[> Sorry everyone I was out of the loop yesterday! I have a plan for the week so I'll just keep going! If you look at this and today's you might sense a theme :) -- Cait, Mon, March 27 2023, 5:28:09
