Frazz by Jef Mallett for March 23, 2019

Actually, we’er in the nice part of March. Lots of news articles about the “super bloom” of wildflowers.

Ah – a new form of March Madness.

If you think your March is bad, try it here in Kerala, India! In my place, we’re averaging 37-38 degrees – Celsius!

Did we skip a panel? Where did “Eliot” come from?

March is good, Spring starts in March

Don’t nullify any part of the rest of your life! “Look to this day for it is life…”

Even the best of intentions can turn sour, given sufficient analysis.

The Wasteland But didn’t Henry David Thoreau say something like that is Walden?

March is named for Mars, god of war, because that’s the month when the Romans started up their battles.

And then Feb would be worse than the dreaded March, followed by …

Makes one think about Mr. Twain’s observation that April is a bad month to invest in the stock market, along with January, August, June, February, …

I had never read this poem. Very nice, but a hard one to wrap your head around. Trying to get some experts opinion on the meaning of the poem on line is not easy either. Most pundits agree that trying to get into the authors head to get the meaning of the piece is a waste of time. Kudos to Caulfield if he read it, hard to imagine that would be required reading in grade 3…

April may be the cruelest month, but croissants are cruller.

At least T. S. Eliot is getting some attention. Come on, Jef, let’s see you be clever with “The Lovesong of J. Alfred Prufrock”!

You know, if you look at it Caulfield’s way, April ought to be just about the least cruel month. It’s followed by May and eventually June, for heaven’s sake. April is nothing but the opposite of dread.

Also, April is when I get to go swimming in San Francisco, and what’s more the opposite of cruel than that?

I always thought April was a pretty nice month.
