Tue, July 20 2010 Mister Ron's Basement #1728
This week, we are reading from the 1880 collection, 'Very Funny, Not Too Funny, Just Funny Enough,' featuring stories clipped from assorted newspapers. Today's piece is probably by Robert J. Burdette, the Burlington Hawk-Eye Man, concerning Ladies who journey by themselves on railroad trains. It's called 'Rules for Ladies Travelling Alone.' Time: approx seven minutes
* There is a nifty interview with Mister Ron in issue #59 iProng Magazine (now known as Beatweek Magazine) which can be downloaded as a free pdf file here. * John Kelly of The Washington Post has written a lively piece about the Basement.
