I continue to moan and groan about the demise of e-mail, the last vestige of traditional letter writing. Today's college students don't use e-mail because "it's too slow." They need the instant communication gratification of texting and social networking. To quote Chester A. Reily, "What a revoltin' development this is." Nobody under 70 knows who Reily was. I'm damed if I will tell them. Let 'em wonder.
Oops, I got so hot under rhe collar that I left the N out of "damn." No, I was not thinking about dames, as in "there is nothing like one." Nobody under 70 probably knows about that, either. They think a dame is a British broad that went to the Queen who touched her with her royal whatever it is and said, "You are now a dame."
