CATCHING UP

The following is material that I want to add to prior blog entries.

CALIFORNIA  SEA  SCENE

This is a picture by the artist mother of Pierre Bourgeois, to remind us of her son, who died at a very young age.

 LOVE  IS  CATCHING

I recently recited:

"Men pursue women?

Does a mousetrap pursue a mouse?"

Related to this, I found this excerpt from "All the King's Men" by Robert Penn Warren.  (I liked the "Moby Dick" reference.)

(Anne Stanton is in a car with Jack Burden.)

"... for that night in the roadster, Anne Stanton had done her trick very well.  It was a wordless and handless trick, but it didn't need words or hands.

She had rolled her head on the leather seat back, and touched her finger to her lips to say: 'Sh, sh," and smiled.

And (she) had sunk her harpoon deeper than ever Queequeg had sunk it, through four feet of blubber to the very quick, but Jack hadn't really known it until the line played out and the barb jerked in the red meat ... inside all the blubber of what (he) thought (he) was."

The poor dumb bastard didn't have a clue or a chance.

HALLOWEEN

In an earlier blog entry, I mentioned the great Halloween parties that my Aunt Marjorie held each year.  I just found a picture from one of those parties.  I'll try to remember who these folks were. (This might be just interesting to my relatives.)

Cousin Tom Phillips Jr,  Cousin Wayne Phillips, Cousin Charlie Kraihanzel, Second Cousin Miss Kraihanzel, Cousin Winifred Moores, Friend Robert Case (Casey), Friend Albert Renn Jr., me.

C'est fini!
