read enough stuff, you can’t help but start keeping lists. this is mine:

[ it’s a link now, because I made this with Flash, like 76 years ago, and Flash is tricky to embed in this WordPress that Flash never even dreamed of . . . ]
I’ll probably keep adding to it, yeah. one thing I see now that I forgot to put on there was that oftentimes the writer will be including what seems like gratuitous sex–ie, doing everything shy of including a picture for those with time on their hands–for the same reason another writer might put unicorns in his story: because they think it sure would be near to actually see a unicorn . . .
anyway, there’s some stuff I’m missing, I’m sure. add your stuff below if you want.
