Three or four Canalettos (Canaletti?) that I saw in the Philadelphia Art Museum as a child. I loved the detail and intricacy.

I've given up reading paper books; they're so hard to hold on to. Curling up with my iPad is much more rewarding than juggling a book.

He said on the MacNeil/Lehrer Newshour that he was asked to submit three poems and this was the one the White House chose. That sounds like it's the White House's fault that they sound the same.

I read this while eating a peanut butter and jelly sandwich which I was washing down with... a glass of cold milk. Yum!

Necktieknot commented on Was Richard Nixon a Closet Case?.

I remember thinking there was something between him and Bebe Rebozo when he was first elected in the late-60s and went on those vacations to Florida. What's surprising to me is that this is a surprise to anybody.

@25 I agree with you. It's downright irresponsible for advanced cultures to leave unfortunate tribes in darkness just because they live in isolation. Thank you Charles for saying it. Where's the confidence in our own advancement and a desire to share it?

But I liked that dumb intro - simple but happy.

Necktieknot commented on SL Letter of the Day: Just Walk Away.

@shuvoff: Is that a hortatory [You should] read Sex at Dawn? Or a declarative [I have] read Sex at Dawn? (Either way it's a very important book that everyone should read. [And that's hortatory.])
