Fuckin' A I do!

And I liked the Edward Gorey tag, from the Gashlycrumb Tinies.  Nice touch.

Now where's my fucking brain.

That one from Emily Dickinson is making me blue.

What are you talking about?
Pistachio nuts?

Oh, btw, speaking of nuts ... the coolest thing happened concerning Emerald Nuts' marketing department and my own limitless imagination. I'm going to post about it a little later (have to go out to eat, soon.)

Madame P.O.
I was about to thank you for letting me out of your blog without craving pistachio nuts and realized...DANG! I did it to myself!  I love Annabel Lee and haven't read it forever so thanks for the treat....now...I have a favorite death themed poem that is stuck in my bleach-soaked neurons and will now drive me crazy the rest of the day if you don't help me think of it.....I know will know it if I can just think of the poet's name.....wait....Eliot!!!...is it the "he was my north, my south"...something like that....HELP!!!!!!!

Myself, I'm partial to all things Dorothy Parker, Hemlocker...
even if her quote here is something of a departure (in tone) for her.

That's a simple one, Kingmi...
I adore John Lennon ("A Hard Day's Night" is one of my five favorite movies of all-time). At any rate, that line is from "I Am The Walrus".

madame
This is a fine collection of death quotations. I like Emily Dickinson best: "I heard a fly buzz when I died."

Madame, P.O. I can't remember ever commenting on your posts, have I?

"Man, you should 've heard them kicking Edgar Allen Poe."
