About This Card

Sometimes, when I am enjoying the richness that is my inner-life, I notice that peoples mouths are moving. If I then observe their eyes are looking in my direction, I try to remember to nod musingly, once or twice, as if in profound agreement. Today’s card? That’s for when I forget.

from the newsletter

They’re experts, you see, and they can prove it by speaking in a litany of cliches, and you’re supposed to listen and marvel in awed silence. Sometimes, when people talk about coffee, you can almost hear the agitated hooting of primates squabbling in a tree.
