She Heaps Up, by Amy Holman
Today, I set my torch aglow on my hillfort, but not in warning to the next guest blogger, rather to signal welcome to this fine community before I go off to forage. I have not been "heaping up," lately, and... Continue reading

Great distinctions made here. Not so obsessive sounding. The equivalents, as you say, have to be in the biz a long time, and the outsider has to attach that young. I felt close to Tatum O'Neal when I saw her in Paper Moon, but she didn't really have a career in movies as much as a wild social life way too young. I wanted to be her friend, I wanted her to slow down. I do defend her in her adult troubles, but I don't worship her. Elizabeth Taylor was a part of the old model of movie making and that model is long gone. It's hard to find equivalents to that.

Taylor Worship, by Catherine R. Stimpson
My sister Mary called. "Elizabeth Taylor," she said. "Yes," I said. "I'm sorry," she said. "I am, too," I said. "You must be mourning." "I am." "You were obsessed with her," she said. "I was," I said. I was? I am---altho...

W(h)ales Messaging, by Amy Holman
I was reading an article about a messaging test recently completed in Northern Wales with torches in old Iron Age forts, and it made me think about why whales sing when they migrate, and also, about the transitional fossil find... Continue reading

That's a coincidence, antfaber. So, what usufruct rights are there? Who doesn't mind use and enjoyment without destruction? Well, I mean, I get the "without destruction" part, but that may be hard to define.

Use and Enjoyment, by Amy Holman
It is highly debatable whether graffiti falls under the definition of today's Wordsmith word "usufruct" but I took this picture this morning and afterwards, saw my word-a-day email. Close enough. From the Latin usus et fructus, use and enjoyment, the definition is "the right to use and enjoy a...
