Flossers of the world, unite! Your riff on the Conscious Poets Society vis-a-vis the Unconscious Poets Society is just brilliant, along with your description of Western civilization’s being threatened by a mutant human-eating fungus in a sci-fi movie! You always are fubulously entertaining!

“Fabulously”, not “fubulously”! My bad.

At least, you have not lost your sense of the absurd, dear author! This was truly a treasure.

Slicing with floss sounds much safer than a mandoline.

The flies here are happy because we are - were - having a warm spell. Then it got cold again and began to rain and all the flies rushed to our windows, knocking to get in.

Oh I wouldn't worry about any etiquette. I don't really understand the comment she made but I also couldn't comment on your comment to her cuz I don't see it. I do know now that you are Mark's brother-in-law but I did not know that for a very long time. Thank you for your readership and your interest in my work and your excellent comments.

Perhaps less embarrassing than the old toilet paper on the shoe and certainly than staining your white tennis shorts brown.

He is a reader. I don't know him. I don't know why you are hearing from him.

Are readers not supposed to comment on other readers’ good comments? Sorry if I have violated this group’s etiquette. I am the brother-in-law of Mark P.
