Just as cooks pray for a good crop of young animals and fishermen for a good haul of fish, in the same way busybodies pray for a good crop of calamities or a good haul of difficulties that they, like cooks and fishermen, may always have something to fish out and butcher. (Plutarch, "On Being a Busybody")
This is a paragraph of text that could go in the sidebar.
After nearly a decade on Blogger, The Busybody has moved to WordPress . I'll be keeping this blog up, so don’t fear: if you've linked to my posts over the years, they will be preserved. But the old posts are now on the new blog as well, and moving forward, I will only be posting at WordPress.
