Elinorama That's me blowing the shofar--the world's oldest musical instrument. The leather straps are tefillin.
 This is my cat Dante (aka Tito) Do you like my web site? Click and type in a question or comment like the site.... not too off-beat only slightly bent with normal ties that show the strain of a parents who's kid plays in the rain peace -blazingtortoise Very impressed with both you and the site.

Now late. can you guess what splendid cat that is? from, resident, apt. 14 Hey - this is great! What I want to know is how do you get all that energy to be so creative? I'd have to nap alot. Elaine in Huntington Where's the link to the naughty poem we wrote? Aren't you proud of it? ;) I love your site. It's nice to see pictures of you and see what you're up to since we don't get to see each other much. Jackie in CT Really enjoyed your site but I think there is one error, no doubt typographic, as I am certain that you would never knowingly praise February 18th over the ever more illustrious 19th which as you know is the birthday of Smoky Robinson as well as Your cousin Marcos Hi Elinor!! I like your new website - it's so you. I enjoyed your new poems and love how you have links to your friends all around. ~ jane I love your website, cousin! You are such a talent. Must run in the family. :), Adrienne Your Web site is almost as awesome as you are -- not least because you included a photo of Dante. Avery from Birmingham I like it very much! -- Susie from Idaho I like it very much too! --Margaret from Michigan I love the website. I immediately added it to my list of "Favorites" on my computer. So glad you included the picture of you blowing the shofar - a worthy addition to your published achievements. I look forward to following your activities on the web, and sometimes in person. --Jackie, New York City I like your website impossibly more, unequivocally the same and nearly as much (of course only in a fractal/fraction of a way) as I love the author/protagonist. ~-liza from catskill Include some of your poems & many more pictures! - and of course brag about Prose Pros. xxx Martha Smart, sassy, and fun. Just like you! --Richard in St. Paul |
 The ghost of birthdays past Birthday LoveIs your birthday February 18? If so, you share it with me, Wallace Stegner, Toni Morrison, Helen Gurley Brown, Jack Palance, Yoko Ono, Molly Ringwald, John Travolta, Louis Comfort Tiffany, Dr. Dre, Andres Segovia, André Breton, A.R. Ammons, Meagan Stanton, Enzo Ferrari, Audre Lorde and probably 1 or 2 others.
 Aquarian love The Dawning of the Age Somebody celebrates a birthday, and why shouldn’t that person be me? Just because my birthday is in February and it’s only some other month—is that any reason to deny me the presents, the cake, the attention? The presents! The cake! The clouds of glory! I like other people’s birthdays too. I like that every single person ever born has one birthday, and one only. Except the Queen of England, who has an official birthday as well as a regular one. The Chinese all have Chinese New Year for their birthday, which is taking democracy or communism or whatever it is a little too far. What’s nice in prison is they give you an extra dollop of gruel on your birthday and the guards come around in a conga line and sing happy birthday, like at Bennigan’s. For those with wimpy birthdays, however, prison can be tough. “Hey, check out the ... Virgo!” I asked my husband how deeply he regrets not being an Aquarius, like me. Based on his shocking indifference, he would do really poorly in jail, where cheerfully acknowledging my birthday is the essence of etiquette. Happy birthday to me! That is: Happy New Year!
