A Copy Editor and His Dog

Bank Loan Dept. Personal Business. Uh-oh, some loans have gone bad! A tennis pro defaulted and a novelist is in Chapter 7. The bed linens company folded and the scuba school went under! Are any of our loans still good? Yeah, the music streaming service is totally sound! And ironically, the lighting company is in the black!

"Once I connect with my server over there, I can turn my lamp on and off."

'ooh! A womb with a view.'

What else is there to wish for?

That midnight hour when fleeting memories come home to roost.

"Nature speaks to me of God’s presence, yet God is a total stranger to the restless world of men." "Why the #!@* is there no signal?!"

Pastorius wonders why.

"If you get to the pitchfork-shaped cloud, you've gone too far."

Personnel - "This letter of recommendation is full of misspellings!"

"Oh good, more time alone for quiet reflection."

Trilby - 'The old studio'.

"Talking to your own reflection? Even your imagination is pathetic."
