How Sad a Passage

COUNTESS "This young gentlewoman had a father,--O, that 'had'! how sad a passage 'tis!--whose skill was almost as great as his honesty; had it stretched so far, would have made nature immortal, and death should have play for lack of work." -Act I scene i, All's Well that Ends Well.

Where were we where we were?

Someone wrote that before, surely. And there is more to be written, oh so much about people's divine lifelong attachments and painful divinity and whiskey in the jar.

But the strong Guinness drinkers don't back down. Opposite coasts. Literal watermelons. Blind visionaries. No dancing in front of the band.

It is a wonderful life. Open the window.
