Or haven’t you heard? Logic rules.
It (and its common sense strategies)
bring such a wide smile to the faces
of my friends, the set of which is too
numerous to list; and I’m not just talk

even having to send out so much as an
S.O.S.) FRIENDS. It’s uncanny, the
certainty of their existence. I’ve heard
rumors of poor sots who cannot say the

calculations). Gosh, I’ve had such omni
present good fortune. I’m so truly blessed,
to be sure. Such calamity befalls this poor
earth it breaks your heart. And then there’s
me and my happiness full of incalculable life.
I’m so ready for it to be over, for the few of
us who belong in paradise to float like tiny
pink balloons on the horizon until we’re

is over now. Who needs another revival?
My tummy's grumbly. And Agnes knows
very well how I get when I’m hungry (In

She’s always at the ready.) Indeed! Let's
go ahead and get this the party started,
shall we? Yes, let’s . . .
