CRUMPLED PAGES
1. We each serve as someone else's higher ground.
2. Will climate change put the human into transhumance?
3. Standard doorway height and standard casket length are each 84 inches.
4. United States Senators are prime examples of industrial melanism.
5. Beware hostesses who use soy and dispense water in the inverse ratios favored by work camps.

HERR KEPLER'S NOTEBOOK
Time is the bully anchor of the opposing tug-rope team.
The person with a happy home life tracks glitter through the world; the solitary person leaves snowprints.
-------------------------------------
"The grasshopper warbler's song comes up out of the earth just as you think the day is quietening down. It has no prelude or warm-up: it starts midperformance, as if switched on by the dark, as it if has been singing like this beneath the earth until it was dark enough to come to the surface. As if, though we hardly hear it, this singing never stops."
