Sir:
:15:02
It feels witless to keep writing
"Gentlemen"...
:15:04
...when the same solitary soul is obviously
taking care of everything for me.
:15:08
Savage Landor arrived and promptly
fell open to a Roman dialogue...
:15:12
...where two cities
had just been destroyed by war.
:15:15
Everyone was being crucified
and begging Roman soldiers...
:15:19
...to run them through and end the agony.
:15:21
It'll be a relief to turn to Aesop and
Rhodope where the only worry is a famine.
:15:32
I love used books that open to the page
a previous owner read oftenest.
:15:37
When Hazlitt came, he opened to
"I hate to read new books."
:15:41
And I hollered, "Comrade!"
To whoever owned it before me.
:15:45
I enclose $1, which Brian,
Kay's British boyfriend...
:15:48
...says will cover the 8 shillings I owe you.
:15:51
You forgot to translate it.
:16:14
Thank you.
:16:18
Only two per family, luv.
:16:20
Now then.
:16:22
Brian told me you are all rationed
to two ounces of meat per family a week...
:16:27
...and one egg per person per month!
:16:29
I am simply appalled.
:16:31
Somebody told Brian
about this firm in Denmark.
:16:34
They ship food packages to England.
:16:37
- I use them to send food to my mother.
- Show her the catalogue.
:16:40
They're very reliable. Cheap, too.
:16:43
Well, cheapish.
:16:49
My God!
:16:51
Look at this.
:16:53
They've got spiced lard, liver paste,
meatballs, chocolate shortcake...
:16:59
...margarine, eggs, cheese.
