MISCELLANEA to the MAXIMUM



Honestly, one might say that this whole blog thing is an exercise in vanity. Indeed, you could even go so far as to say that folks who post these boasts exemplify narcissism to the most. If you do any surfing around the Internet you will discover untold numbers of blogs; their proprietors, the majority of them, earnestly offering their exciting lives and unquestioned wit and talent in a frenzy of self-absorption and egotism. 


Other blogs display a low key, withdrawn, reserved--even introverted approach.
It’s a safe bet that you have the acuity to discern the rubies from the rubble. I recently had an email stating ---this is true--- “Jim, you’re a gem!”  Or words quite similar. Take your cue from there.

The classified ads never had a better friend than Len Bruh, AKA Larry Hurb. We collaborated on the newspaper panel AD LIBS for about thirteen years before the drawing chores were passed along to the able hand of Joe Daley.

Back again to the magazine rack where one of the two pictured gag cartoons focuses on what is obviously one of our favorite topics: food. The other, targets more on drink.

Finally, allow me to share a small pleasantry enjoyed at the CBS* Thursday night dinner. It happened to be my birthday and Millie Bobleter was responsible for creating the card you see here. It was signed by the five others in the group. How can one not love them?

IT'S AN OLD OLD SENTIMENT

The large type used in the MM blog is for the benefit of those who have difficulty reading the smaller type type. Including myself.
