60. What If Frog, But Also Bat, But Also Dragon?
One of my newsletter readers Rese Rose sent me the most beautiful email from Australia this past week (Hi Rese!)
Her home town of Brisbane, Australia is famous for this (!!)
Hearing from readers is one of my favourite things — I’d love for you to reply to this email and tell me something special about your home town.
Howzit friends,
Here’s a few things I found this week that you may find interesting and/or meaningful.
1. The Question on Everyone’s Lips
“what if frog, but also bat, but also dragon?”
2. Be Still My Heart
My love of Japan meets my (newly-found) love of all things bird with this beautiful bird feeder.
You can buy her in the UK here.
3. On Phone Addiction
How to use your phone .. so that it doesn’t use you.
4. A Poem
Not Waving but Drowning — Stevie Smith
Nobody heard him, the dead man,
But still he lay moaning:
I was much further out than you thought
And not waving but drowning.
Poor chap, he always loved larking
And now he’s dead
It must have been too cold for him his heart gave way,
They said.
Oh, no no no, it was too cold always
(Still the dead one lay moaning)
I was much too far out all my life
And not waving but drowning.
5. The Perfect White T-shirt
Did you know it takes 8,700 miles to make a single tee?
Read about how Paynter cut that down to just 6 miles here.
See you next Sunday.
