“People who work sitting down get paid more than people who work standing up.” — Ogden Nash
(I had a really tough time getting this one started. I seem to have a problem recognizing PEOPLE for some reason. The Sunday ones are supposed to be a little tougher though. Right? Be well and do good, friends.) — YUR

To this day, Speak Low, written with Kurt Weill, is one of my all-time faves.
You’re just an old romantic, Wes! — YUR
That I am.
Wes…Mine too. I have many a rendition of it in the collection of 78’s and 33 1/3’s that my Father left me…It’s a haunting melody, but one not too many people are familiar with. Check this out…it’s campy, and overly melodramatic…but if you close your eyes and just listen…you don’t notice! https://tinyurl.com/y3dozzu6
As for Nash, I consider him a mentor…And one of my favorite lines of his, his retort to Dorothy Parker’s famous “girls who wear glasses” line….”Girl who’s bespectacled…May not get her nectacled”…gets me every time! 🎶🙋🏻♀️
