Jefferson Alley will look better now To the editor, CM, in thanks to the Hingles I am so glad to know about the Tearoom. I am very pleased that the back as well as the front is painted, as the article says. (I have not seen it yet.) The backs of buildings along Jefferson Alley are so visible that I'm sure the unpainted exteriors seen from Burkesville Street give a bad impression of Columbia.

Will beignets be better in Columbia? To Ed, I'm curious. Will Mr. Hingle's beignets taste as good as Cafe du Mondes? :) I hope so. Nathan Compton As good? More better. Nothing like them in N'awrlins, whether it's at Cafe du Monde or D.H. Holmeses lunch counter or at the Woolsworth store. Regardless, the setting is much better at Mr. Hingle's. Prettier petunias. Nicer church chimes. Better theaters, more & better theology & geometry. -Ed Related Photo 2007-08-02 15:33:06 | Comments | Printable version
Devin Feese concurs now, spider a fishing one He concurs now that Shamarie's spider a fishing one; had not looked closely at the spider's eyes Spider People, CM: Oh. I failed to see the spiders fishing pole just out of focus in the background! I'm glad an expert was consulted as I learned something from it. Apparently with these spiders it's all in the eyes. Both wolf and fishing spiders look a lot alike, but can be distinguished by the layout of the eyes. This fishing spider has his top row of eyes in a fairly straight line. Had it been a wolf spider the outside eyes on the top row would have been higher and farther back on the "head."
