- Bio
- My wife, Susan, is also around here as
marmot63, but I post twenty times as much (at least) as she does.
One comment from a satisfied user:
I have never been sorry I've added your journal. Never. Every single post is an education, and some of it has stunned me with its vulnerability and the strength underneath. From the highly personal to the political to the religious to the historical to etymological to the ridiculous and sublime, you challenge me. And dude....black olives on pizza are great!
Pantaloons and tunics!
Courtesans and eunuchs!
Funerals and chases!
Baritones and basses!
Panderers! Philanderers!
Cupidity! Timidity!
Fakes! Mistakes!
Rhymes! Mimes!
Tumblers! Fumblers! Grumblers! Mumblers!
No royal curse, no Trojan horse,
And a happy ending, of course!
Goodness and badness,
Man in his madness,
This time it all turns out all right.
Tragedy tomorrow! Comedy tonight!
