In 1832, English author William Hone (1780 - 1842) published The Year Book of daily Recreation and Information*, an almanac of sorts in which included this quirky and wonderful "Alphabet for Beginners" (amazing they still apply today):
*The complete title is: The Year Book of Daily Recreation and Information;
concerning Remarkable Men and Manners, Times and Seasons, Solemnities and Merry-Makings, Antiquities and Novelties, Forming a Complete History of the Year; and a Perpetual Key to the Almanac. By William Hone. The book was re-published again and again, with longer and longer title each time.
Didn´t know that one xD.
JenDiggity: Thanks! Now eat faster!
This was such a find! I'm definitely printing this one out and putting it on the fridge.
Anon: That was hilarious! You couldn't have ended it better.
Edie: Maybe instead of wading out into unknown waters you should go in full bore, well prepared, and with confidence? A stretch, I know, but if you want to wax philosphical...
How then, do waters become known?
A day not wasted is a wasted day.
Bacon goes well with anything.
Cats eat your food and money, don't get one.
Dogs do too.
Eating is a luxury, your WoW subscription isn't.
F this, 26 is too many damn letters.
