"Within the forlorn figure below the immense intricate life-restoring apparatus a mechanical pulse begins to beat!"--Twin Earths narration

Terran law: "Allow not the males of Terra to diminish further in numbers....  Sacrifice nine females if thou must if it saveth the life of one male"--Twin Earths

Moira taped the accompaniment for "Caro Mio Ben" and my second singing piece, Giovanni Paisiello's "Nel Cor Piu Non Mi Sento." (She wouldn't let me pay her!)

Dinner was roast chicken.

At choir practice Giuseppe told me that the cherry tree offshoot was still alive. (I was anxious because I had to cut off a lot of its roots to fit in in the pot.)

Read a reprint of the first Sunday episodes of the 1950s science fiction comic strip Twin Earths. (It's about an earth doppelganger called Terra, on the other side of the sun.) These episodes are about a Texas boy who sneaks aboard a Terran flying saucer whose crew is entirely female.
