werd, I've been following your posts, welcome to passions. Curious, these images you choose to preserve. Stone, elementals, different prospects, just me. Doc |

Interesting and entertaining. Reminded me of Silverstein. |

But then, on re-reading, you could be from a dozen more countries (the georgey bush - along with so many other examples of stream of conscious and humorous word play and rhyme - had me giggling delightedly), or you could be from none of them at all - or all of them, or some of them, the ever-enigmatic Andrew. With that all-inclusive selection, I have to be right about one of the options! Owl |

Oops! I wonder what happened to my first post. I will try to reconstruct it. I said something about this being a delightfully vibrant explosion of life - and that you had me shellaccing shellaccy shellacs with gusto and that I wondered if you came from France (Tristan Tzara and dadaism) or Scotland (Andrew) or England (On Ilka Moor Ba'at At).

Thanks Owl. Glad you picked up on my jumbled name. I'm very much schooled in the unschool of this that Dada. Tzara is my homey : ) grapenuts too |
