I'm confused Slart, do you mean the Sophia from the Golden Girls?

You do not hear, and so you cannot be redeemed.

In the name of their ancient pride and humiliation, they had made commitments with no possible outcome except bereavement.

He knew only that they had never striven to reject the boundaries of themselves.

And I believe in you

I will remember you

Ishmael יִשְׁמָעֵאל "God hears or obeys"
Herman Melville wrote:Moby-Dick. The novel starts with one of the best-known opening sentences in all of English literature:

"Call me Ishmael".

Queequeg the harpooner is a "savage" cannibal from a fictional island in the south seas. The son of the chief of his tribe, he befriends Ishmael in Nantucket before they leave port. Queequeg is a skilled harpooner on Starbuck's boat. His behaviour is both civilized and savage.

Esmer, could you explain why you chose Queen of Heaven and Little lamb, an ewe, one with purity for me please? I'm honored, but am not sure I understand why you chose them.

Hey Ishamel, relax man. It's just a name. :D

well, in your case, as I did not have much deeply personal interactions with you, I had to "fling you to chance" and see what came up....under the impression that you are Jewish, I pointed google there, and "malkat hashamayim" stood out most predominantly, soooooo, following the "auspices of the spirit" ;) , I chose that....the other predominantly obvious "random" choice, was that the name Rachel showed up almost too consistently. no personal information, if I even had any, ;) was used in this process, as is the case with the majority of these..... ;)

now, to satisfy my curiosity, did it have some meaning for you? were you touched in any way, or surprised? :o
