What if flowers faded to feathers and caught the frost in their old age?
Yesterday I played secretary at a meeting. As usual, I doodled..
Vi Hart has a new math doodling video, about the twelve days of Christmath. She points out that in the twelve-days-of-Christmas song, the gifts can be divided into three categories: birds (partridge, turtledoves, French hens, calling birds, geese, swans), humans (maids, ladies, lords, pipers, drummers), and an anomaly (golden rings).![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
wakanomori says, "It makes you think it must all be about the anomaly."
Wakanomori found an anomaly in the town newspaper--a legal notice that shouts out "STORY!"
( To any unknown or unascertained heirs, successors, assigns, devisees, and/or legal representatives... )
There's more--about what the heirs, successors, assigns, etc. have to do to contest Ms. Keedy's claim--but I thought the part I just quoted was ... impressive. So Mr. Bronner died, leaving, apparently, no heirs, and Ms Keedy lived in his house for twenty years after that, and now, by virtue of that fact, she wants title to the property.
My questions are--what is a devisee? And how do you live both peaceably and notoriously in a place? And adversely? [ETA: never mind--I found the answers]
Last but not least, I got a calendar from Bread and Puppets. Each month is a woodblock print and a line from a hymn in the Sacred Harp. This month's line is, Lo, what a glorious sight appears. Glorious, like frosted feather flowers?
