December's End. Forecast for Snow.
"Some people love waking to the sight of new snow. Fallen snow is fine, but I like the sight of it falling, fine as dust or so fat you can hear it land against the kitchen window. I like the tunnel of dry snow you drive through at night, the headlights blanking out a few yards ahead, and the feeling that you're driving into some abysmal vacuum. I like the ground-blizzards and the snow that slithers down the road ahead of you. What I like is the visual impairment snow brings with it, the way it obscures some things and defines others, like the wind." - ---Verlyn Klinkenborg from The Rural Life

ReplyDeleteYou're right-it would sound better with a British accent.
ReplyDeleteSo that's why I'm not getting job offers...HR people don't like being called a shank ho. Who knew?
ReplyDeleteThere'll always be an England...
ReplyDeleteOh, dear. I'm still laughing!
ReplyDeleteI'm gonna have to remember that think about not calling somebody a "skank ho" in a job...it might explain a lot about my current lack of employment....
ReplyDeleteExcellent! I love letters like this and yes it should be read in an English accent (not really any such thing as a British accent, take your pick from Scots, Northern Irish, Welsh and English :-))
ReplyDeleteHilarious. And so posh, in its clipped British accent. LOL
ReplyDeleteI suspect, as you all might also, that this is a bit of a joke. Yet, it still makes me laugh. Point taken, Argent about the English accent. I'm imaging Hugh Laurie reading this out loud.
ReplyDeletehahaha, that is awesome.
ReplyDeleteHilarious and refined! How do the British do it?
ReplyDeleteI love the british :-).
