Bill!,

Oh, yes.  Always.  Yeah, yerright.

And, BTW, some writing of a young new author, especially, has my immediate 
(next) attention.  I think it's the fellow's first novel.  The old masters have 
grabbed my eyelashes, though, but, in a few more days, I'll need a respite.  
Not just to stare into space -- as an Astronomer is wont to do, mind you! -- 
but to read the fine musings of a new dude.  Well, a new dude with a lot of 
experience.  Not that new.  But a new voice.  Congenial!  Funny you should ask. 
 I'll tell you about his stuff.  I bet you'll be interested!  And, if you 
already are, why, I won't keep you hanging.  Too long.  I hope those curious, 
too-patient, toes are touching the ground.  Sometimes I wonder why I'm such a 
sluggard.

Also just rec'd Vasari's LIVES OF THE ARTISTS.  Diving and snorkeling into the 
past "like" it "was" tomorrow!  I wonder if Merle has read Vasari.  She needs 
no snorkel and probably lives and breathes him.  Dunno.

With Friendly greetings, and felicitations,

--Joe
