A #soliloquy in French, a #soliloquy in English,
Two #soliloquies holding hands,
Hypocritical romantics,
Neither listening to the other,
Not noticing they were leaking oil all over the carpet.
This is politics!

Today, 84 years ago, the sky over #PearlHarbor turned #magenta, painted by the blood of 2,404 soldiers and civilians.
We cannot forgive, and we should not forget.
May you all Rest in Peace.

'See, the problem with being #chivalrous is that you have to look knightly, and that cost money!
I tried shared investment, but that looked only half #chivalrous and not #suave at all.'

"I swear to you, we cannot squeeze another one in!"
"Oh, come on, this is #achievable! Today is #sardine day, at least on this side of the pound."

It was a most improbable heist at the most famous museum, the #louvre in Paris.
In this fertile ground for the #myth, the seed happened to be a young man, Mr. Delvaux, stepping in the picture.
From a #distance, he became the enigmatic detective.
The incongruity developed the #myth.

I am sorry to inform you that the #BookerPrize for fiction was not attributed to me for any of my #literature.
It was conferred - and rightly so - to the writer #DavidSzalay for his novel 'Flesh'.
Congratulations David!
(I have earned the right to be a little jealous, haven't I?)

#Literature is that book you can put on your head without looking too ridiculous... at least if you are Victor Hugo 😜

"Look! I wrote poetry!"
"That's not poetry, that's prose. Poetry needs to rhyme and have a metered rhythm."
"Sounds complicated. An idea: if I use enluminures, could it at least become #literature?"

"I have a problem with #language: I don't understand anything!"
"Did you try some of the translating AIs?"
"Yeah, not prefect yet."
"Ah! Try the Babell Fish: Ford Prefect slipped one in Arthur Dent's hear. It translate all alien #language."

"What are you going dressed as?"
"Dressed? What for?"
"It's #Halloween, pumpkin head!"
"Oh, that! I was going as Don Quixote, but the party is in a windmill, so..."
"Have to rethink, havent you?"
"Yope. You think going as a cellist is a valid approach?"
"Yes, but not much of a costume."
