I'm Contributing...Sort of....

I really don't particularly enjoy poetry, unless it's Dr. Seuss or Shel Silverstein...I can appreciate poetry...but, I wouldn't go out of my way for it...but, Tall One and I are unashamed UK/Irish whores and we're traveling to Scotland at the end of October and I saw this ad for a lecture by Scottish poet laureate, Robin Robertson (even his name sounds poetic), sponsored by the Lancaster Literary Guild (la-dee-da), and well, I haven't come up with anything before now...

I don't think there is anything more romantic than a tragic Irish poet (although I wouldn't want to live with one)...and while Scotchman aren't purported to be tragic, they are stoic (second best) and they speak with a wonderful accent...so....

It's not exactly the Peace Corps

What could be more fun than the Roller Derby.
Chicks beating up on each other.
No alcohol, oh well, later
