See The Flockers: Cindy Scroggins

Okay, I started this mess and now I have to follow through. This is an accurate image of what I looked like 8 years ago, at age 40. Naturally, I still look exactly the same.

    “Golly, you don’t look like a library director.”

    Betcha hear that all the time.

    Thank you for suggesting this, lovely Cindy!

    No, Sheila, I don’t hear that. I used to hear that. These days, people just say “Are you okay?”

    My daughter likes your hat.

    I am deeply flattered.–CS

    I like Cindy’s hat.

    You’re in good company, apparently. It’s the crown from one of those English Christmas crackers. This picture reminds me of the great post you did, Sheila, of the dead princess kitty. When I die I want that artist to stuff me and dress me like one of her cats or pigeons and put me on display. Perhaps in a presidential library. -CS

    When I die I want that artist to stuff me . . .

    Like Jeremy Bentham! (Except that he’s not dressed like a princess.)

    I have a postcard picture of Jeremy Bentham stuffed and sitting in a school museum display. His “original” head is sitting at his feet; it had to be replaced with a fake one since, also per his instructions, his head was used for soccer practice one day and now looks the part. Still, the rough play didn’t fully erase his wry grin, which always was and always will be there.

    Here is a link to some information about the so-called auto-icon of Bentham that still resides at University College, London.

    Wow, do you think that after I finally “squawk my fool head off,” it will be laid at my feet?
