Hey Burt,

My mixing up Vonnegut with Bradbury would surely be reason enough for me ending up and burning perpetually in Texas or Florida, er, I mean hell. Wait! Then again, I might mean Texas or Florida as there is no literal hell, just Earthly places that closely resemble it. In your neck of the swamps are Mephistopheles, Beelzebub, Satan, Apollyon and Lucifer common names?

My cruel and unusual punishment here on earth is that I am not able an hour after posting to edit my mistakes! What have I done to deserve such a hellinous, er, I mean heinous fate!

Yup, I've been know to sing "Maria"-with definitely no Aves- in honor of my saintly Ma Eugenia (Maria) but as an atheistic agnostic I can't bring myself to "say it soft and it's almost like praying."

Even though my home town of Boston, MA is known as "the hub of the Universe," ala Athens, it is fah from being a bastion of philosophahs or,alas, even that many freethinkahs.
