There are many things in life that I am not prepared to deal with. Greek is
one, math another, but most assuredly, the Queen of all my disquietudes is
palindromes. If this were the best of all possible worlds, the word
'palindrome' would itself be a palindrome. But it's not, emordnilap
notwithstanding. "Notwithstanding" is also something I'm not prepared to deal
with. The fact that I like the sound of "notwithstanding" notwithstanding, I
refuse to use the term since I'm never comfortably sure that I'm using it
correctly. But if that were the criterion, I'd be curled up like a rolly-polly
bug always and forever.
Nothing much to say, just trying in a civilized Obama-like way to vent my
hostility towards Donallanod for catching me off-guard rather than tough-guyly
Hillaryizing him into obliteration.
