Yes. Just recenlty got in a stew with sevral peoples saying how she had
red hair but mom says it was black but never I saw this expect in white
hair. She lived pretty old before we lust her. How about yers?

Talking about time and writing... time and thinking... yesterday during
20 hour day (what is this 7 AM waking up stuff when you are still awake
at 5 AM?) I had to take a break & walked around & found local
Southampton upscale paper w/ issue on writing & there were two short
short stories I read that were interesting, obviosuly school wrk... but
I was caught by how the grammar in each story felt rigidly distorted as
a 'writing technique'. I was not sure if the grammar was deliberate, or
if it was poor writing, but I took it as a stylistic technique to catch
the reader unawares and trip them up. The paper also had a lot ot typos
& was poorly edited so I was also not sure if the tripping around kind
of reading experience was intentional on the part of the writer or the
result of a poor proofreader. It DID interfere with the rythm of the
prose. I found the phenom interesting and plan on studying it a bit more.
