Sailing to Byzantium

An aged man is but a paltry thing,
A tattered coat upon a stick, unless
Soul clap its hands and sing, and louder sing
For every tatter in its mortal dress,
Nor is there singing school but studying
Monuments of its own magnificence;
And therefore I have sailed the seas and come
To the holy city of Byzantium.

    So is that you Miep? I can’t tell because the WordPress server farm automatically assumes that all the emails must be coming straight from me. (Information in the post just below explains how this can be straightened out.)

    And the post below explains how you also can get a free WordPress blog, and set it to front-page mail from a random email address. If we all do this, we can share email addresses and post stuff on each others blogs (blorgs) at will. And you could, of course, send some stuff to me and some to other blorgs, depending how relevant the stuff is on the varying blorgs.

    Thanks for trying it!!!
