    Dear Camille Paglia:

    I enjoyed your one month till Valentine's day column in stalin.com. Could you please elaborate on your passing reference to Laura Ingraham. When I first heard her, I thought she was a guy, with a high pitched, slightly nasal voice. I like her joie de vivre. She has a rapid fire manner of speaking which is a clear marker for high intelligence.

    Don't you have some at least cursory respect for her? I'd love to se you both in a live discussion.

    Have you seen the UTube of "Women of the Israeli Army?" If not, enjoy. While we are at it, what's your take on Israel these days? I hope it differs from the run of the mill knee jerk craziness so prevalent at this here saloon.

    My favorite movie of all time is "The Last Temptation of Christ." The score is mesmerizing. I also liked "Blazing Saddles" and "Dances With Wolves."

    Lastly, if you had a 17 year old kid who loves to read, write, draw and sculpt, and who also loves learning Japanese, where would you send him/her to college?

    Sincerely,

    Lotus Feet
