Let's get one thing straight from the get-go:
This is a non-post. It's just a roundup of two Tumblr posts that I shared this morning. We're enjoying another worldwide blizzard here in Minnesota, so I have a lot of shoveling & shivering to do, so I can't write a genuine blog post of my own right now, therefore I shared a quote from a book that I'm reading & also a quote from an interview that I recently read; and I posted these posts to the network mentioned above. Yet since I never want my gentle reader to find it necessary to follow my misdeeds elsewhere (I mean, anywhere other than here on my public-private diary), I try always to recap the stuff that...
[NOTE. I set a pic of onion rings & dancers as the obligatory image for this non-post, becuz it's uninteresting. I had slapped it together long ago and saved it as a file on my computer, but I avoided publishing it till now, cuz I always felt that it was not quite...]
But I don't mean to imply that the quotations from the posts that I'm attempting to embed below are less than excellent—on the contrary, they're better than anything I myself could ever have written—but only because I don't feel that I'm putting enough of my OWN effort into the present blog entry...

P.S.
My inner dullard threatened to bar the rest of my mind from getting any real daydreaming done, if I didn't also share all my morning's offerings in tweet form. (The reason I don't normally re-share my short absurd-text updates is that they are almost all directly copied from my Book about What, which is also available in the 2nd volume of my collected writings.) Thanks for caring so deeply about my social networking activity today!
Damn I don't know why it has to auto-display a pic of my own ugly mug when I'm just trying to share a link to some text that I copied... alright I give up; now I'm done wrestling with the miracle of modern tech which has changed all of our lives for the better.

So you take a bunch of puppets and you abuse them. I see where you're going with this. The strongest puppets breed super-puppets and we market them.

I suggest that you leave work now, pour yourself a beverage of choice, & enjoy your favorite music album.
