Thank you for these sites, John. I just loked at

the first one, and it showed me everthing I could

ever want to know about the knee and more! Good

candidate for the Astanga II site, as there have been many

knee questions.<br><br>As for the electric-shock zip,

my scholarly friend Cocteau was right. Flexing the

foot, I found I could forego the funny feeling. (That's

for you, Sunshine, though you're probably too busy

listeing to Dan Savage stories to link up with us at this

point.) But in this position there was no getting one

foot on the other. Guess it's back to opening those

hips.<br><br>And speaking of Cocteau, can anyone answer his

long-ago posted query: What does Korunta (or Koruntha)

mean (as in yoga korunta, the fabled, mmaybe mythical,

texts on which our beloved astanga form is

based?)<br><br>Trayam, as for your first Birkam's class, how did you

feel about having to lock your knees (and elbows)?

It's so counter to everything I have learned, and one

of the reasons I didn't enjoy my first and only

Bikram's class.<br><br>B<br><br>An off-subject/on public

radio PS: The woman with the funny voice is Sarah

Vowell, she has a newish book out. I haven't heard Sandra

Tsing Lo in a while on This American Life; among her

stories is "My Father's Chinese Bride." Her stories about

her father are incredible, there's even a pop song

about her dad. I have heard her on Marketplace (is that

the right name?) where she does a semi-regular bit

called "The Lo Down." Favorite Sedaris bit: I think it's

the Music Lesson show, his father is forcing him to

learn the guitar, but he really wants to sing like

Billie Holiday, which he demonstrates quite well in a

remarkable rendition of the Oscar Mayer bologna song. I saw

him do this bit at a reading and it had me in tears,

literally.
