Monday Morning Memo

Okay, since there are probably fewer than 40 people who will explore this deep into a hidden side tunnel, I'll give you some interesting dirt. Do you remember the photo of the little boy with the giant Easter rabbit at the top of last week's memo?  You guessed it. That was Hollister, the grandson of Princess Pennie and the wizard. This is a song that he and his father sing together.

Rex does the lower part of  the Ambassadors, “Are you ready?” and Hollister squeaks the high part of Barbara Mason, “Yes I'm ready.” Grandparents are suckers for that sort of stuff.

The upper video is Barbara Mason in 1965.
The lower video is Barbara 40 years later.

This is the end of the side tunnel. Now it's time to backtrack and rejoin the group on their way to the rendevous.

Random Quote:

“

As I wandered about the world I constantly met foreign writers who went out of their way to assure me that whereas they considered themselves as good as Hemingway, they did not want to mimic him. They had their own style and were satisfied with it.

And I began to wonder why they never said: “I don’t want to write like Faulkner …” -or Fitzgerald, or Wolfe, or Sartre, or Camus.

It was always Hemingway they didn’t want to copy, which made me suspect that that’s precisely what the lot of them were doing.

“

- James Michener, in the Introduction to The Dangerous Summer by Ernest Hemingway (1985)
