  ;Wench�察�that's your opinion。 But what's your opinion against mine�拭�Rangy Lii�察�I've seen thousands and thousands more women than you have´and I say that you make Cleopatra look homely。;
  
  ;Blarney tongue�察─�she said softly。 ;I'm sure you've never had a woman turn you down。;
  
  ;True only because I never risk being turned down�察�I wait to be asked。 Always。; ´

  ;Sweetest old goat。 If you can find any�察�you're wele。 But I've been plucking that end even more carefully than my scalp。 Let me slip this dress off。;
  
  ;Wups� �Hold it。 That's Rangy Lil�察�the horniest bitch in Happy Valley�察�always in a hurry。 Get your dress off if you wish�察�but I'm going to find Lurton and tell him to saddle up Best Boy and go~beg supper and a shakedown from his sister Marje and Lyle。 Then I'll be back to pluck。。。those disgraceful gray curls。 Supper will be late�察�I'm afraid。; ´

  ;That's my Lil。 Darling�察�there isn't a man in the valley who wouldn't grab you and try to find another valley if you gave him the slightest encouragement´that includes your own sons
  
  and your sons´in´law´´every ma1~ here´��down to fourteen。; ´
  
  ;Oh�察�not true� �Blarney again。'~
  
  ;Want td bet�拭�On second thought we won't waste time plucking gray hairs at either end。 When I get back from telling our youngest son to get lost for the night�察�I want to find you wearing just rubies and a smile。 Because you're not going to cook supper�察�we're going to scrape tip a cold picnic instead

  Lazarus opened the bedroom door very quietly�察�looked in�察�looked inquiringly at his daughter Elf´a strikingly beaUtiful middle´aged woman with flaming red curls shot slightly with gray。 She said�察 �e in�察�Papa�察�Mama's awake。;
  
  She stood up to leave�察�taking with her a supper tray。
  
  He glanced at it�察�subtracted in his mind what was still on it from what he had seen leave the kitchen on it´got a sum which was too near zero to please him。 But he said nothing�察�simply went to the bedside�察�smiled down at his wife。 Dora smiled back。 He leaned over and kissed her�察�then sat down where Elf had been。 ;How is my darling�拭─。拭� ´
  
  ;Just fine�察�Woodrow。 Ginny´。´no�察�Elf。 Elf brought me the tastiest supper。 I enjoyed it so much。 But I asked her to put my ´rubies on me before she fed me´did you notice�拭�
  
  ;Of course I did�察�Beautiful。 When did Rangy Lii ever eat supper without her rubies�拭�
  
  She didn't answer�察�her eyes closed。 Lazarus kept quiet�察�watched her respiration�察�counted her heartbeats by watching apulse in her neck。
  
  ;Do you hear them�察�Lazarus�拭─�Her eyes were open again。
  
  ;Hear what�察�Dorable�拭�
  
  ;The wild geese。 They must be right over the house。;
  
  ;Oh。 Yes�察�certainly。;´
  
  ;They're early this year。; That seemed to tire her�察�she closed her eyes again。 He waited。
  
  ;Sweetheart�拭�W4ll you sing 'Buck's Song'�拭�
  
  ;Certainly�察�'dorable Dora。; Lazarus cleared his throat and started in�此 �

  She closed her eyes again�察�so he sang the other verses very softly。 But when he finished�察�she smiled at him。 ;Thank you�察�darling�察�that was lovely。 It's always been lovely。 But I'm a little tired´if I drop off to sleep�察�will you still be here�拭�
  
  ;I'll always be here�察�dearest。 You sleep now。;
  
  She smiled again�察�and her eyes closed。 Presently her breathing grew slower as she slept。 ´

  If you are part of a society that votes�撮察�then do so。 There may be no candidates and no measures you want to vote for
  
  but there are certain to be ones you want to vote against。 In case of doubt�察�vote against。 By this rule you will rarely go wrong。 ´
  
  If this is too ´ blind for your taste�察�consult some well´meaning fool ��there is always one around�� and ask his advice。 Then vote the other way。 This enables you to be a good citizen ��if such is your wish�� without spending the enormous amount of time on it that truly intelligent exercise of franchise requires。

  Those who refuse to support and defend a state have no claim to protection by that state。 Killing an anarchist or a pacifist should not be defined as ;murder; in a legalistic sense。 The offense against the state�察�if any�察�should be ;Using deadly weapons inside city limits�察─�or ;Creating a traffic hazard�察─�or ;Endangering bystanders�察─�or other misdemeanor��
  
  However�察�the state may reasonably place a closed season on these exotic asocial animals whenever they are in danger of being extinct。 An authentic buck pacifist has rarely been seen off Earth�察�and it is doubtful that any have survived the trouble there 。 。 regrettable�察�as they had the biggest mouths and the smallest brains ´of any of the primates。
  
  The small´mouthed variety of anarchist has spread through
  
  1A1~
  
  the Galaxy at the very wave front of the Diaspora�察�there is no need to protect them。 But they often shoot back。 ´ ´

  This sad little lizard told me that he was a brontosaurus on his mother's side。 I did not laugh�察�people who boast of ancestry often have little else to sustain them。 Humoring them costs nothing and adds to happiness in a world in which happiness is always in short supply。 ´

  Copulation is spiritual in essence´or it is merely friendly exercise�察�On second thought�察�strike out ;merely。; Copulation is not ;merely;´even when it is just a happy pastime for two strangers。 But copulation at its spiritual best is so much more than physical coupling that it is different in kind as well as in degree。
  
  The saddest feature of homosexuality is not that it is ;wrong; or ;sinful; or even that it can't lead 。to progeny´but that it is more difficult to reach through it this spiritual union。 Not impossible_but the cards are stacked against it。
  
  But´most sorrowfully´many people never achieve spiritual sharing even with the help of male´female advantage�察�they are condemned to wander through life alone。

  The profession of shaman has many advantages。 ´ It offers high status with a safe livelihood free of work in the dreary�察�sweaty sense。 In most societies it offers legal privileges ´ and�� immunities not granted to other men。 But it is hard to see how a man who has been given a mandate from on High to spread tidings of joy to all mankind can be seriously interested in taking up a collection to pay his salary�察�it causes one to suspect that the shaman is on the moral level of any。 other con man。

  Beware of the ;Black Swan; fallacy。 Deductive logic is tautological�察�there is no way to get a new truth out of it�察�and it manipulaies false statements as readily as true ones。 If you fail to remember this�察�it can trip you´with perfect logic。 The designers of the earliest puters called this the ;Gigo Law�察─�i。e。�察 �Garbage in�察�garbage out。;
