., can
you read Beowulf in the original ?
I could "back when the Earth was cooling" and I was an undergrad. <LOL> We 
also read "Bede's Ecclastical History" and "The Anglo Saxon Chronicle" plus 
excerpts from the Bible.  It was surely one of the most interesting courses I 
took. Remember I'm from the generation who was more interested in acquiring a 
"MRS" degree than a BA.  My mother was determined I would meet someone who would 
take care of me.  Well, over the years I met several of them but none who met 
my criteria (whatever that was). I insisted my daughter learn to support 
herself first, and, thankfully, she did.  I am, however, a whiz at crossword 
puzzles.  I especially like diagramless ones and acrostics. :-) Most of all I enjoy 
the peace of my own company.

Hope Santa is good to everybody on the list!

Love,
