  1. A quotation from Horace

    The man who mingles the useful with the sweet carries the day by charming his reader and at the same time instructing him. That’s the book to enrich the publisher, to be posted over seas, and to prolong its author’s fame.
     
    [Omne tulit punctum, qui miscuit utile dulci,
    lectorem delectando pariterque monendo.
    Hic meret aera liber Sosiis, hic et mare transit
    et longum noto scriptori prorogat aevum.]

    Horace (65–8 BC) Roman poet, satirist, soldier, politician [Quintus Horatius Flaccus]
    Epistles [Epistularum, Letters], Book 2, ep. 3 “Art of Poetry [Ars Poetica; To the Pisos],” l. 343ff (2.3.343-346) (19 BC) [tr. Blakeney; ed. Kramer, Jr. (1936)]

  6. CW: Notebooks, Journaling

    I’ve read nothing but amazing things about #PithSupply Yuzu notebooks. Amazing paper quality, lays flat, dot grid…

    But they’re made in the UK and they don’t ship to the US and that makes me sad.

    So if you see this post and somehow know how to get these in the US, please let me know!

    Today I sent a software support request in haiku style. It’s a useful format for brevity.

    #OTD #JohnFremont encountered the #Cottonwood #Tree (Populus fremontii) at Pyramid Lake in Nevada.

    Cottonwoods are the fastest-growing #Trees in North America w/ weak wood & a #Star-shaped #Pith. Female trees make the fluffy star-shaped #Seeds that collect in your #Garden & #Garage in June.

    Arapaho & Cheyenne stories say the tree held the #Stars of the universe in their #Branches until one #Windy #Spring when they released them to the night sky.
