 		EMAIL FROM MEG: 1/12/04
THEY CALL ME PASTABAGEL AND I'M HOT ON THE TRAIL OF SOME SOUTHWEST PUMPKIN PIE.

Attached bleow is an email I got from Meg, in response to one I sent.

The answer to question 4 is the most important (as is the shrink's name (I guess)).

THNEY CALL ME PASTABAGEL BUT PLEASE KEEP READING


Dear... Pasta Bagel (what an interesting nickname!),

I imagine you've heard by now that I'm not in Catalina at present.  I'm
back home with my dad in California for a while, to try to figure out if
he should be living on his own or not.  Anyway, you have some intriguing
questions I'd like to answer:

1. Jake does have problems sleeping, but then again so do I.  My first
trimester had me up every night once or twice to go to the restroom, and
I imagine I disrupted his sleep every time I got up.  He was also talking
in his sleep, but I couldn't really make out what he said.  I don't think
it had to do with the pineal gland - that's the one in the book about Las
Vegas, isn't it?  The thing that makes you grow breasts on your back?  As
far as I know, Jake has no additional body parts.

2. Frank Harker?  I don't know him.

3. You're joking, I'm sure.  If you're not, I really don't think you need
to be talking to Jake like that.  He's having so many memory problems
right now, having someone tell him things like that might cause him to
start believing them.

4. Yes, I have some pie, as a matter of fact.  Since Dad didn't come to
visit for Christmas I made him Mom's pumpkin pie recipe the other day.  I
quadrupled the recipe because I thought I'd give a couple away, but it's
so good that we can't bear to part with it.  We're eating pie at every
single meal.

5. That doctor's name was Rodsild.  He was a total jerk and I do not
recommend him if you're looking for a psychiatrist.  I didn't really make
a note of the plate number.  Seems like there was a coyote on the tag.

Whatever you can do to help Jake will get you my undying gratitude.  I do
love him so.

Sincerely,
Meg

Meghan- sorry about Jake's problems.  I have some questions for you,
though, that may shed light on what the psychiarist told him:

1.  Does Jake have trouble sleeping?  Is the trouble associated with the
pineal gland?

2.  What do you know about Frank Harker?  Do you trust him?

3.  Are you aware that Jake used to work on time travel projects?  Did
you know he almost got shot?  Did he tell you anything about making a
jump through time?

4.  Do you have any pie at your house?  Pie rules.

5.  What's the doctor's name or his office's name?  Surely you must know
that.  Did you get a glimpse of his license plates?  What state were they
from?

Sorry about the deposition, just trying to get some answers for our think
tank's ongoing research.  The research involves helping Jake, just so you
know.  It does not involve pie (although that certainly could help Jake
too).

WHEN RESPONDING PLEASE ADDRESS ME AS 'PASTABAGEL'.  IT'S NOT MY NAME,
JUST WHAT THEY CALL ME.

one of my accounts (lycos) seems to use fastmail as well. Could just be a generic webmail program or something.

And WTG! Good job on getting the information on the Doctor! /me gives Pastabagel a pie for Pastabagel's own

 		MY email
I wrote to Meg...

My name is Nash Carey. I am currently in Iraq, but a long time resident of Catalina. I have been reading your blog, and had a suddenly strange coincidence occur. I also saw a therapist a about a year ago while I was home to see my step-father who has frontal tempral lobe dementia (much like alzhiemers). He was telling me about my father and told me if I needed to talk to get a hold of him. He also drove a silver Mercedes. I just cannot remember his name for the life of me. Probably just the war wearing on me. Do you know him or a way I can reach him so I can find out more information? Does he have a web site?


She wrote back...

Dear Nash,

First of all I would like to say God bless you on your mission in Iraq.
It is people like you who make people like me safe and sound at home, and we are forever in your debt.

The doctor Jake went to see was Dr. Rodsild. I don't think he has a
website that I know of. I hope you don't take your step-father in to see
him. He's a sour man with a horrible bedside manner, and I can't imagine
him helping anyone at all other than his own pocketbook. I'm sorry your
step-father is having difficulty. That's a hard thing for anyone to go
through, and being on the other side of the world from the one you're
worried about certainly doesn't help!

Stay safe over there and come home to us when you're able. You are a
hero, always remember that!

Sincerely,
Meg

Balazs,

So sorry it took forever to respond to you. I'm in California right now
with my dad and just remembered that I had unanswered mail in the box.
Unfortunately I never got to talk to Jake about your puzzle, but I did
print it out and put it on the table before I left. I'm not sure whether
he saw it or not, though.

It is heartening to hear you had a relative who's recovered from a
similar situation. I very much hope I will be able to say the same thing
about Jake some day.

Take care,
Meg
