"... But never again as during that all too short period when he and I were one person, when the fulfilled future and the wistful past were mingled in a single gorgeous moment -- when life was literally a dream...."  F. Scott Fitzgerald, from 'Early Success,' The Crack Up, October 1937

                              

    Young Woman in White Gloves, by Tamara De Lempicka                           TENDER IS THE NIGHT, by F. Scott Fitzgerald, 1st edition

                                                                                                                                                   

[And just where are those Quantum Tommie stories? Okay, Okay, I'm working on them.]
