George, So, if you were the last person on earth, would you choose to live or to die? I would choose to live, perhaps for no better reason than that I do not want to die. Because I choose life, I also choose reason, the "A-is-A" crap. Skipper

George, I have a 17-year-old son. What do you suppose concerns me, as his father? A) Does he do drugs? B) Is he doing well at school? C) Does he watch TV? Hint: neither of the two that concern most parents, but rather the one that most parents consider harmless (unless it's a show about sex, of course). Why do you make such allowances for the mindless masses? Skipper

George, although I have given up trying to please you, I hope you have not gone away or anything. It is almost time for the fourteen thousandth post, and I know you get excited by milestones. Perhaps if we all drink a LOT of coffee, we could hit 20,000 by the holidays!!! I prefer quality and thoughtfulness of expression to sheer quantity, though, so that is certainly not a challenge!!! I found another Montague poem that is easier to understand than that last one, George!! This one is about the rhythm of the sea, in a way, which attracts me because I am a Pisces, probably. Anyway, I hope you enjoy it: Tides The window blown open, that summer night, a full moon occupying the sky with a pressure of underwater light a pale radiance glossing the titles behind your head & the rectangle of the bed where, after long separation, we begin to make love quietly, bodies turning like fish in obedience to the pull & tug of your great tides.
