Sunday Cryptoquote Spoiler – 08/23/20

Nashional Treasure: A Celebration of Ogden Nash | Rye, NY Patch

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.

    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! 🎶🙋🏻‍♀️
