About Me
- Name: Dr. S
- Location: Gambier, Ohio, United States
Annie Dillard could have been writing about me when she said (of herself), "I like the slants of light; I'm a collector." Or Willem de Kooning: "I'm like a slipping glimpser." And don't forget Brenda Ueland: "I learned that you should feel when writing, not like Lord Byron on a mountain top, but like a child stringing beads in kindergarten--happy, absorbed and quietly putting one bead on after another." But the Beastie Boys might have said it best: "When it comes to panache, I can't be beat." There's a reason I wear a ring that says Badass.
Back
- Her vagrant mind must be reduced to order.
- Drive-by shootings.
- Some falling, some rising.
- At the risk of belaboring a point:
- The fragility of growth.
- For now, flowers are enough.
- Six is the friendliest number that you'll ever know.
- The point of it all.
- Then there is a loneliness that roams.
- What I think when I say "garden" to myself.

I love the things you notice.
I love the one with the man looking for a wife and dog and he wants to see pictures of the dog. Almost something out of rural (as if there were another part) of Jennings County.
That one was the reason I put these up!
Well, that one and Sir Laughs Alot (which is so wrong in at least two ways).
oh, the differences between the two sets is heartbreaking ("women who like to party" oh god how depressing). And unfortunately, the one about "send dog pictures" is a old saw and completely unoriginal. sigh.
Yes, Ttractor, thanks for seeing the contrast I was making and didn't want to say aloud.
Leibniz?! ...hey baby, can I integrate under your curves?...
