“January … The sky is low. / The wind is gray. / The radiator / Purrs all day.” — John Updike

We’re tapping the burrow for possible leaks about balancing the bipolar temperament of a tilted globe in the sway of a gob of gaslight. Watch this space for any signs of a bad moon waning.

“The groundhogs are pretty good at eluding. If somebody is trying to come after a ground hog, they go and they burrow.”

  1. Dahl was always a complainer. The tea is too strong, the tea is too weak, the storm has taken out all our electricity and our roof has collapsed! Yeh, yeh, ok Ronald.

    That said, I do not want to make light of what could be a terrible situation (though, apparently, I have opted to, anyway). Continued good luck to your and yours, E Sum. Thanks for the updates.

    • Thanks for your good wishes, George, and for making light. As Edison’s inspiration-to-perspiration ratio illustrates, it isn’t easy. But I think that sometimes it’s the only way to help creatures without an ounce of batsense to see in the dark.
