Thank you oompa for recommending Kurt Vonnegut.

I am reading Cat's Cradle at the moment, and am enjoying it immensely.

Around and around and around we spin,
With feet of lead and wings of tin ...

"Beware of the man who works hard to learn something, learns it, and finds himself no wiser than before. He is full of murderous resentment of people who are ignorant without having come by their ignorance the hard way."

New knowledge is the most valuable commodity on earth. The more truth we have to work with, the richer we become.

"And Lot's wife, of course, was told not to look back where all those people and their homes had been. But she did look back, and I love her for that, because it was so human."

Thanks for the suggestion! I just finished "Good Omens" at my husband's suggestion and it was freaking hilarious. Looking forward to checking out Vonnegut.

I enjoyed reading Breakfast of Champions back in the 70's. I remember taking a leak meant stealing a mirror.

Inkling I remember ol Bokonon...he worshiped feet and not the son (sun).

I actually wrote a song about him in high shcool, and may have suggested Kurt to you.....glad you like him...............oompa
