I always thought “I am what I am” was one of the Saviour’s funniest lines.

Roy, I want to praise you for a nearly 50-year-old old New Yorker piece called The DiLiberto Times. An amazing prediction of where we are in 2022 -- personal newspapers reviewing your latest argument with your spouse = curated blogs such as Substack. You should reprint here. Thanks for keeping me chuckling for decades..

'I celebrate myself, and sing myself,

And what I assume you shall assume,

For every atom belonging to me as good belongs to you.

I loafe and invite my soul,

I lean and loafe at my ease observing a spear of summer grass …'

Walt Whitman, ‘Song of Myself’.
