Quote of the Day (Josh Billings, on Talking About Yourself)
“When a man gits tew talking about himself, he seldum fails tew be eloquent, and often reaches the sublime.”—American humorist Josh Billings (1818-1885), “Affurisms,” fromJosh Billings: His Sayings (1865)
I'm a librarian (no, NOT a "cybrarian" or "information scientist" or any of the other trendy terms the profession has come up with), as well as a freelance writer/researcher; my political leanings are contrarian, much to the dismay of friends on the left and right, and so I will give anyone looking for my vote exactly what they deserve -- the back of my hand
