This morning I told the Missus, " Don't bother me down in my Office today. I'm going to clean up and reorganize."

She squealed with delight.

Truth be known, I watching here with and adjudicating for nonsense that might be deleterious to our.." DO NOT TENER CAUSE."

But Ebear, your last prosaic prose re: K. Barron was very thoughtful.

Over the Last While on Agoracom ,your efforts , substantiated wit and wisdom has been incalculable.

I bought a New black Derby hat the other day. It looks quite fitting when I roar around the various villages with the top down in my old convertible..

I call it my Ebear hat in your honour.

Strangely, as I haven't seen him or heard from him in years, and I noticed when I looked up on Goggle the other day, my relative nephew (Noah Stacey. that's all you need to type in) who lives in your city also, it appears he too also wears a Derby .

You know, maybe that could be a symbol for ARU .. retail holdouts.

Thanks again ebear ... you have unbelievable talents and the mix with you and Kerrisdale has made for exhilarating reads.
