unearths some literary gems.
From Whiskers and Soda, by [of course] Frank Richardson:
[This collection of short pieces begins with what the author calls a "shocking bad preface."]
*** Personally, I never know any of my heroines. They always cut me. [That's a "spoiler" from a piece called "Novelists and Their Characters."]
*** In spite of the fact that we belong to the same club, we are quite friendly when we meet. ***
[The attachments, as you can see, come from a piece about discovering the East Pole (which, as my own photo reminds us, I subsequently discovered here in Northampton); and from the signature screed called "Why Wear Whiskers?."]

unearths some literary gems.
From Animal Land, Where There Are No People, by Sybil and Katharine Corbet:
"I have been asked to say something about the creatures that live in Animal Land where there are no People. My daughter Sybil, aged four, began to describe them to me about a year ago, but as I personally know nothing about them except that I draw them from her very graphic descriptions, I thought I had better write down a few of the facts about them, collected by her, in her own words:—'Animal Land where there are no People is quite near, only you can’t see it. It is a kind of Garden Cage, with the North Pole and the sea always roughling and wavy. In the summer they like to be hotter and hotter, and in the winter colder and colder. They live by the North Pole and in the leafy places near. It is always light there, always day, they climb the poles and always play. That is Animal Land.'"KATHARINE CORBETJanuary 1897[Some highlights include precursors to Yoda, Pikachu, and the Moog.]https://ufdc.ufl.edu/UF00086398/00001/flipbook

***[On the question of reviving archaic words.]As for "Welkin," "Lush," and "Bosky"--who dares to lead their metric feet into the prim paths of prose? Let bygones be bygones.***My words will be imaginotions, penandinkumpoops, whimpusles, mere boojums rather than classic snarks, for I shall not construct “Portmanteau” words, like Lewis Carroll.***The frequent use of the “oo” will perhaps require an apology, and the almost equally merry “aw.” The other “long” vowels, such as “ee” and “ay” and “o” seemed inadequate to my use. Of consonants, my “G” is, no doubt, most frequent. “G” supplies spuzz to a word that can hardly be obtained elsewhere in the alphabet. “K” also has a bite, but it is frequently too suggestive for our delicate susceptibilities. “L”—what could one do in such a work, without the gentle liquid that euphonizes the most savage of consonants! Also I confess having fallen in love with the anapest.***Oo´fle, n. 1. A person whose name you cannot remember. 2. A state of forgetfulness regarding a friend or thing.Oo´fle, v. 1. To try to find out a person’s name without asking. 2. To talk to an unknown person without introducing him to a nearby friend.***Tashivation. The art of answering without listening to questions.***Tin´tid-dle, n. 1. An imaginary conversation. 2. A witty retort, thought of too late, a mental postscript.***Unk. An unwelcome, inappropriate or duplicate present.***Wijjicle. A perverse household article, always out of order. [One of those recalcitrant "things"!]***Zobzib.

I Found a Penny Today, So Here's a Thought |
(permalink) |
 |
 |
 |
The single most important thing is …
- to learn to stop
- to make sure the right people are in the right place at the right time
- not to thrust or over accentuate
- to be on time
- the song itself
- to protect the key remaining pieces
- to turn back and retake the road badly chosen
- to follow your dream
- to be observant
- to get communications working better
- that the trustee not be a friend or relative
- not a single thing but many little things
- that image has got to be right
- to really know your boat
- location
- long-term agreements
- to keep accurate records
- the personal touch—being flexible and accommodating
- blind, stupid, tunnel-vision self-confidence
- not to reveal your password
- the ability to figure out what is wrong
- to rely very heavily on self-help, self-initiated efforts
- to understand what the new realities of your society are
- you, then your outfit
