Larry McMurtry Has Passed And So Has The Storm

 March 26, 2021

   Still chilly and rainy out.


   There are several things going on in this picture. One is, the storm is lifting, two is it's garbage day and I got the bins out in time, and three the newspapers came, and four, Uno is pointing at the newspapers in case I somehow missed them. Such a dog!

Daily Whip Out: "Little Miss Dichotomy"

  Just heard that McMurtry has passed. Working on a pivot for the next issue (June).

   “I’m a critic of the myth of the cowboy. I don’t feel that it’s a myth that pertains, and since it’s a part of my heritage I feel it’s a legitimate task to criticize it."

—Larry McMurtry
