Page 151 of Family Man now online!

From afar, with the help of the scheduled update function, I give to you this week’s page.  Barring major airline tragedy, I’m in London at the moment, and studiously trying to ignore the internet while I run around sticking my Yank nose into every corner of the city.

But I managed to hammer this page out before taking off.  Last week, bats!  This week, thorns!  Future graduate student writing their thesis on potential elements of symbolism in my oeuvre:  you’re welcome.

I will note that Spinoza’s name has the Portuguese word for “thorn” at its root, and a thorny rose (along with the Latin word for “Caution”) appeared in his seal.

Those are blackberries, though.  Future graduate student:  accept my apologies.

All the wonders of capitalism in the store!
