Begin at the Beginning

"If you should write a little fable for little fishes, you would make them speak like great whales." Goldsmith to Johnson I am certainly not at the beginning but only starting here at the three-quarter post to accumulate unbelievable events from the hum-drum. Labor day seems appropriate since I neither labor nor spend a typical day. The thoughts herein will be on just a few topics: 1. being a public librarian and the sights and smells that accompany such. 2. blood sport gardening 3. popular music in know-it-allese. 4. cat misbehavior 5. food 6. the war between men and women 7. despair/exhuberance 8. Living with my hipstress daughter 9. slavery to routine 10. the bizarre in everyday life including cell phone shitheads, tail-gating SUVs and clueless kids.
