Fish-of-a-feather,
While browsing alt.books.vonnegut I came a cross this quote from
the upcoming Vonnegut novel "TImequake"
The African-American jazz pianist Fats Waller had a sentence he used to
shout when his playing was absolutely brilliant and hilarious. This was
it: "Somebody shoot me while I'm happy!"
That is for the left brain (or is it the right side which is intuitive,
I never remember).
For the right brain, let me conjure the image of Ernie along the
the recollection that Seymour liked to play the piano...
Those of you who get more sleep than I do, feel free to expound.
All the best,
Mattis
