   I had to read it aloud, Jim. Such a fun read and I bet you enjoyed writing it. ‘Tomfoolery’ is such a great word, and ‘spume’ is one of those comedy words, like ‘flange’. ‘Mary Tyler Moore’ got me singing ‘Buddy Holly’ by Weezer.

   What a great brain-teaser! Rhyme, rhythm, wordplay, and sound association all in one place.

   Such fun. It’s like an open-ended game that any poet would love to be invited to play.

    I was happy to see that Himmelfarb was a real word (a name). Some words just deserve to be spoken.
