 | For Jim A. in North Carolina, with thanks "It was a very interesting book and it was a lot like a Dickens novel," he wrote in his monthly newsletter to family and friends, and then added, "I have been burping and passing a lot of gas ever since I had my abdominal surgery over two years ago," followed by advice on how to solve the issue with fennel tea. Dickens would have loved such juxtapositions as would Martin Luther, the one who, in desperation, and late at night, once threw a full ink pot at the devil on the wall. |
| I could not help but smile and think of The “I Love to Fart” Cookbook which is listed on Amazon.com* in the "Social Change" category. Social Change? Pray, what's next? |  |
