Silk Stockings

Saw yesterday dress performance. As always Cole Porter...
 One of the themes - the heroine, Ninotchka, educated in communist Russia cannot laugh or make a joke. Hmm....does this explain why I am trying so hard to be funny?

college education -missed

I took all kind of kind of Coursera classes. Felt exactly as described in this article - missed the basic classic education.  And then I took their course in modern poetry and discovered close reading of poems and the class discussions. Since then I view each text in a new light.

The grapefruit tastes spectacular but  this country will not go far. On Sunday,  the street vendors stay home.
