“Gained in Translation”

Don

I just read your piece in Bewildering Stories on “Gained in Translation.” Totally fun. Perhaps here on Earth we could arrange such an amicable discourse between our warring factions? Maybe some pictures of people at “labor and frolic” would do the trick.

Some think the world is made for fun and frolic but there is labor too.

Thank you, Stan! You must be the third person besides myself and Jerry Wright who’s read it. Maybe the second, if I don’t count.

Agreed about exchanging pictures of people in their natural state. And Anod Namys has some fun with the question “What is ‘natural’?” “The Inadvertent Intervention of the Floon” also has fun with taboos... in the natural state.

I find that age brings more of an appreciation for balance than I had in younger days. That is, I feel less guilty about the sheer concept of fun than I used to. In addition to “Translation” and “The Floon,” Dimmity Dumpling and the Scarlet Cloak.” makes time for more frolic!
