Our Weekly Postcard (LXXVIII)
Looks like the first snow will come this evening here in Switzerland. We have to wax our skis and to look for the snow shovels. I suppose that they are somewhere in the cellar.
Winter is what we were meant for, and we welcome it, Garrison Keillor wrote yesterday. He is right, and we are also just fine but currently don’t have time for blogging.
We try to be back on Sunday or Monday. Have a nice weekend.
Backside is a song you all know: Les neiges du Kilimandjaro (The Snows of Kilimanjaro), sung by Pascal Danel.

From time to time, we need a poem
Maybe, you know that we like poetry (Bert Brecht, Rudyard Kipling, Ernst Jandl, Ingeborg Bachmann…), and from time to time, we even need a poem… or something similar:
Charles Bernstein 1975 oratorio 1-100, found on and downloaded from UbuWeb.
