the great event of 1928

There are songs to sing, there are feelings to feel, there are thoughts to think. That makes three things, and you can’t do three things at the same time. The singing is easy, syrup in my mouth, and the thinking comes with the tune, so that leaves only the feelings. Am I right or am I right? I can sing the singing. I can think the thinking. But you’re not going to catch me feeling the feeling. No, sir.

I wish I had a bog to my name, but alack and alas, the fens are not mine to claim in such a fashion and thus the marshland shall remain a mystery beyond my ken in it's daily workings.
