The public reading of the retirement one--there was a party--went well. It seems right to me to give people a bit of a send-off; life's transitions can be difficult. I'm sorry my proofing is so poor; even on the second attempt I missed the fact that "of" in "of a piece" had been swallowed by a cut and paste. I'm thinking I may gather some of the twofers and wotsits into a printed collection possibly titled, "On Sale Now" or "Further Reductions in Store." Thus feedback, public or private, re. which ones seem to have a bit of life in them, is very welcome.
