Fwd: From a Dead Beat to an Old Greaser

And I'm wondering if the latest version of Little Women will have the guts
to film that novel's ending, wherein the heroine marries a creepy older man.

I know you to be a voracious reader, may you never run out of what is, at
least in a relative sense, new.

I will mourn the individual's passing, (and the coming harvest will be
quite concentrated) but continue to use the present tense when speaking of
them.
