I hope you won't have as much trouble about keeping people from having parties for you as I am having. Around here if you publish the number of whiskers on the local pigs, everybody has to give you a tea." ~ letters of Flannery O'Connor "If I had my life to live over I'd make the same mistakes, only sooner." ~ Tallulah Bankhead
