She pawned my best jacket and she lost the ticket
I still aten't dead, but this last week has made it kind of hard to tell. Have some links.
1. I missed International Non-Binary People's Day until I was told about it, but I really appreciate this contribution from Popeye.
2. I hope this installment of Existential Comics ran for the Fourth of July: "Fireworks and a Theory of Language."
3. I will always think of it as The Magic Summer, since it was under that title that I encountered the copy I read to pieces as a child, but I am very glad to see this reprint of Noel Streatfeild's The Growing Summer (1966). It was my first exposure to several pieces of poetry, most memorably Kipling's "Our Fathers of Old." I just learned there was a 1968 TV serial starring Wendy Hiller as Great-Aunt Dymphna. I imagine it doesn't survive.
I know I noticed him first with Foreign Correspondent (1940), but I have been unable to figure out where I first saw Herbert Marshall. I had no idea he'd hosted a 1941 episode of The Jack Benny Program, including a burlesque of The Letter (1940). I'm charmed.
