“Glory is fleeting, but obscurity is forever.”
– Napoleon Bonaparte
As some of you may know, I recently became a contributor to U.S. News and World Report. My first article appeared, and in my mind, I replayed the scene in the movie A Christmas Story (#aff)> where Ralphie’s theme on the Red Ryder bb gun is so well-written that the entire class celebrates and parades him around the classroom. If only I had added the bit about “this thing which tells the time” to the article, I’d have won a Pulitzer Prize.Waldo is a fictional character known for hiding in intricate illustrations, challenging readers to find him in a crowd.
I wasn’t showered with accolades by the Nobel Prize committee. Alas. Perhaps next month.
