Where Credit is Due You

I'm going to cannonball into Narcissus's pool most of the time in these posts, but I have so many clever and funny friends and acquaintances that I will not be able to resist (after careful consideration of what's worth stealing) quoting some of their comments from time to time. Be assured I'm going to think very carefully about how to guard everyone else's anonymity when I do this, so please don't be too nervous. The only people from my life who know about this blog are far away from me and each other, so I don't anticipate any indiscreet blunders, BUT if you happen to recognize an idea or phrase in here you want to lay claim to, send me an e-mail, and I'll be delighted to attach your name to it as requested. Of course I'll be delighted--it'll mean one other person ever read this besides me!
