Twice dead in OBITUARIES ( Smith, Constance A. )
A most odd -if not macabre -error in your OBITUARIES for March 28.
One Smith, Constance A. appears under the very same Smith, Constance
A. May " Connie " rest in peace, but she enters whatever afterlife
with a very earthy chuckle.
While sipping on my coffee-cup emblazoned with the ominous
Latin motto " CARPE DIEM " , I noticed the macabre double obituary.
And reflecting all but a very few people will read my own OBIT with
benign indifference -or an impish chuckle.
I guess you can expect a letter like this from a guy
who CONSOLES himself -in war time ! - reading the horror stories
of Providence's very own H.P. Lovecraft .
To a bored American soldier outside Baghdad -just waiting -
I recommend his " The Rats in the Walls ". Some comic relief from
REAL horror !
