Ewe and me . . .


I just bought my first piece of original art that cost more than a pittance. I really like it. In fact, I like all of her stuff. It's shown at the left and was painted by Diane Selby, a Kentucky painter. Her web site is dselby.com and I suggest you look through her online gallery. Some of her work is hanging at Barnes and Noble in Lexington.

A couple more quotes from the Jim Harrison book I just finished. " . . . when you are born and raised in the country neuroses are only minimally tolerated", and . . ."I was diverted by NPR when a disembodied male voice said that a mere teaspoon of a neutron star would weigh a billion tons. As a literature person I at first missed the point and wondered at the preposterous strength of the teaspoon."
