Toby Tweet 124--Toby the basset hound seems to have inspired this VisPo that is a cross between a shopping list, todo list, holiday greeting card, personal journal, illustration of English as a second third and fourth language, manifesto, invention log-ideas that ended up on the scrap heap,  commentary, comic monologue, proof that our brains work like predictive text…

Christmas arrived early this week in the form of a brown paper package not tied up with string but it certainly contained a few of Nancy Bell Scott’s favorite things. 38 of them, in fact.
