bump No rush; don't want it to get lost.

[Karen]

Sent my guess!

[mrspunkysmom]

"In its flawless grace and superior self*sufficiency I have seen a symbol of the perfect beauty and bland impersonality of the universe itself, objectively considered, and in its air of silent mystery there resides for me all the wonder and fascination of the unknown.

H. P. Lovecraft 1890-1937

He is well known as a lover of cats!" as quoted by Karen.

I didn't know he loved cats, but I knew the quote was about cats. I haven't read anything major of his, but I know about his impact on science fiction and other literature and am when allusions are made to his works. Don't ask how I know.

Karen will host or pass it along to Ms. Pinot!

[Karen]

I will get a new puzzle up later! He was a well-known lover of cats, and not one of dogs!

[Karen]

I will get a new puzzle up Monday, I promise! Busy weekend!
