To access the details of any item in slide format, type its title, as displayed above in red font (e.g. ... compassionate), into one of the two search bars at the the top of your blog-page. Underneath the slide(s) for each entertaining delight that you discover, you will find a clickable link that lets you easily explore a more widespread collection of wonderments (verse, photos, wordplay, song-lyrics etc.) on the topic of your choice.
b) Today's Offering (Aug 23, 2024):
Authors' Note: "Captain R" is a muse who appears episodically in the authors' dreams. R. is their abbreviation for rhotic (ROA-tik) dialects in English, i.e. those that honour R-sounds as they are written. The Captain, who clearly has been influenced by the nearby letter "q" as in Don Quixote, and wears a tight-fitting shirt emblazoned with a large "R", has inspired a quest that culminated in the other verses in this collection (at the website OEDILF submitted as articulate, intrusive Rs, and articular.)
Quixotic, BTW, is used to described ideas and actions that are foolishly impractical and romantic.
