March 20, 2020
Dear Occupant or Roommate,

We know you’re home because this engulfing forever global snow day has consumed the malnourished bones of reality. So now we’re all locked in our private quarantinoes and studying up on stuff we never wanted to know. Well, we can either sit around and go on and on about how nothing will ever be the same (even though it never was), or we can catch up on our reading.

Lucky for all of us, the Flossophy of Fongress Library is willing to loan certain books, possibly among the best, to brassy, bodacious borrowers. Free sanitizing!
Try the gourmet Sardine Banana Mold!
In case you need to protect your secret stash of toilet paper!
Homeschooling Dream Come True!
Fictionary Friday: Words You Need. Whether you know it or not.
Germalism (gehr mal izm) Noun:  Exciting news about what might infect you.
In a sentence: Warren Pease found it impossible to focus on enticing jello recipes due to the endless germalism push notices on his invisibly filthy phone.

Wikipedia Friday Favorite:
In honor of the intersection of curiosity and logarithmically expanding human knowledge, we offer a weekly favorite obscure Wikipedia page.
Anyone who loves dense language coupled with squiggles and graphs will burrow into . . .

Fizzdom Friday: from our collection of favorite quotes.
"Reality is that which, when you stop believing in it, doesn't go away."
– Philip K. Dick

Extra Bonus You-Didn’t-Ask-For-It Reader Reply of the Week, from Rose Marcus standing in a wheat field overlooking Manhattan and wondering where everyone went:
Friday Fluff:
Again, we’re glad you’re home to receive this notice. Part of the problem with contagion is all the people. Fewer people, fewer germs, as Dr. Bigpox pontificates. Gretchen from HR replies, "We should combine people."

Combine people?

"Why, yes, into neat little pairs. Not that they necessarily belong together, but because their names kinda fit, so two people, or even a person and an object, can huddle under one complete name, and free up some space for chrissakes."

Maybe Gretchen’s got a point. Consider . . .
Cole Porter Waggoner
Bob Dylan Thomas
Wild Bill Shakespeare
Bill Clinton Eastwood
Elizabeth Warren Buffet
George Washington Carver
Chuck Berry Gordy
Jim Morrison Cafeteria
George Harrison Ford
Bill Terry Bradshaw
Ayn Rand McNally
George Bush Azalea
Elizabeth Taylor Swift
Abraham Lincoln Continental

Imagine how much space we could save!

Write if you (are) or (are not) going bananas (with) or (without) sardines. After all, you've got the time.

Yours in the igloo of snow days forever,
