The words at the end remind me a bit of Finnegans Wake. And I'm still wondering where you found all those upside-down letters. The Ls kind of look like the Hebrew letter dalek (not the kind from Dr Who). 140215 ... raze i thank you. i wish i could say i devised this through ingenious research and improvisation, but i have to admit i cheated. cheated cheated cheated! i used this convenient site here to flip the text upside_down: http://www.fliptext.org now you too can type upside_down! i'm still kind of surprised blather let me do it and didn't give me any goofy symbols where letters were supposed to be. just goes to show that while html may not work here, there are quite a few symbols that are recognized. part of me still wonders if an upside_down title would have gone through, but i wasn't brave enough to try it. maybe some things are better left a mystery... 140216 ... e_o_i (˙xoɟǝɹıɟ uo ʎɐʍ ʇɐɥʇ sʞooן ʇı ʇsɐǝן ʇɐ ˙sɹǝʇɔɐɹɐɥɔ ʍǝɹqǝɥ ǝʞıן ʞooן sן ǝɥʇ ʞuıɥʇ ןןıʇs ı) 140216 ... flowerock the L's do look like Hebrew characters, but I'm not familiar enough to know if they actually are. When I was little I had a book called "My Alephbet" teaching children Hebrew. I went to synagogue and liked it better than church. I wish I had been more interested then and really learned the symbols and words, I wanted to learn Yiddish to speak with my great grandmother, but we made fishy faces together instead. 140216 ... e_o_i This is irrelevant to the topic of the post, but it just struck me that there's at least 3 of us who've written here who have some Jewish relatives, were raised Christian, and ended up on the agnostic or non-denominational side. It's probably not a rare demographic type in North America, but still. (My father, who knows Hebrew, isn't Jewish. He's Presbyterian (started off United Church or something in rural Maine). My mom's Presbyterian by default, coming from a Scottish background - yup, the Christians do that religion-tied-to-ethnicity/nationality thing too: the Scots used to be mostly Presbyterian.) 191012 what's it to you? who go blather from
