Terry, you're not nearly as weird in person as your posts imply. Alas we cannot say the same of the quicksand man, he of the rabbit hole, the hatter of madness, our very own beamish boy. I shall have to read Brautigan for insight.
I wish we hadn't missed the brief Moose sighting. We enjoyed the company of Mr.and Mrs. Moose at the Fall gathering.

The nonsensical poet Ogden Nash was also a friend and neighbor. I asked him what he thought of the aisles of critiques of his work. My English teacher did not like our conversations. He didn`t teach Nash the following year. His wife did and she was my English
teacher that year. She also liked C.S.Lewis. Thanks Weezie.
Vonnegutt was also on my paper route. Great sense of humor in his thoughts. His wife Jane, not so much. Welcome To The Monkey House was written about Barnstable, Ma. Pretty funny reading about people you knew growing up. Kurt had the most wonderful glint in his eye.
