LIKE HORSE MANURE AT A RODEO

   Columnist Liz Smith (a native Texan), promoting her book, NATURAL BLONDE, on Larry King Live, said she was in the New York Post, Newsday, the Staten Island Advance...

   "I'm like horse manure at a rodeo."

   She stinks up the place everywhere?

KYRGYZSTAN

   MANAS.  Sorry.  In 1995, they celebrated 1000 years of the national epic.
   Kirghiz is indeed in the OED.  But NO ONE here spells it that way.  There is a significant American presence here--there is an American University of Kyrgyztan in Bishkek.
   Yes, Kyrgyz might not have made it in the OED for 1989, but it's a country and a language, and the OED has ADDITIONS.
   Gotta go.
