amgreene (Andrew Marc Greene):
When Lucy was little she and her mother and Dancy would sometimes sing
hymns together in harmony --- something I have never been able to do
with anybody. It is a sweet mystery to me: voices harmonizing
together, merging and twining around one another, changing places back
and forth, now one ascendant, now the other, like the `g' and the `n'
in `mignon.'
- Roy Blount, Jr.

henry (Henry Mensch):
this month brings us some tombstone humor; today's theme is "light":
Blown Upward
Out of Sight,
He Sought the Leak
By Candlelight.
In Memory of
Ellen Shannon
Who was fatally burned by
the explosion of a lamp filled with
Danforth's Non-Explosive Fluid.
no light here:
Beneath this stone and not above it
Lie the remains of Anna Lovett;
But please, dear reader, not to shove it,
Lest she should come again above it.
For `twixt you and I, no one does covet
To see again this Anna Lovett.

Planned absences:
maybe singapore and hong kong (13 july -> 30 july)???

Plans for this month:
D organising the PANSS tape (and thinking about off-site support)

* finding and retaining a man who can pass the "breakfast" test
* shoveling out my apartment
* considering moving the rest of my furniture (and books,
and tapes, etc.) back into my apartment.
legend: * = "in progress"
+ = "in 'bureaucratic-wait' state"
! = "a future problem," in proposal stage
D = "done"
