According to TypePad, the company that provides the platform
for this blog, one can now post via e-mail. I am wondering if this is true. I
haven’t been a credulous man since the Nixon administration. So I am
testing this e-mail feature. Here is a spontaneous limerick:
A limerick is an artform sublime
If you like to have smut that will rhyme:
What sounds just like sex, but carries no vex
That’s “truckin’” for “Tex” “on a dime”.
Okay I admit that made no sense. Here’s another:
A limerick is an artform disgusting
Since it’s never concerned with dusting:
There’s never a broom or a shot of perfume,
But always there’s old fashioned lusting…
I’ll keep my day job. Test Test…

Your automatic email signature is posted as well in this post. Hmm, this has got me contemplating on the word “post” and how it has recently evolved. I’ve asked my domestic partner to send a query to Worldwide Words, of which he is a registered subscriber, about the chronolgy of its development. He’s raised his eyebrows over the top of his Sunday L.A. Times, and I’m hoping that means that he will.
