A/K/A SCRIPTA
A/K/A The Good, the Bad, the Just
Plain Silly, and the Perhaps Informative
updated 1/5/11
This website contains most of the writings of Mr. Bill Black of
Falmouth, MA, known to his
spouse, friends, and dog as "Bill".
There's a section devoted to
Prose
... and one devoted to
Poetry
... although some of the prose material looks more like poetry and
vice-versa. But the punctuation and
spelling are pretty reliable and everything is rated G so you don't
have to block this site from your
kids or pets.
(Note that very little of the poetry on the Scripta site actually
rhymes. If it's rhymes you want (and who doesn't
occasionally?), best bet would be a visit to Mr. Black's BBSongs website.)
There's also a section devoted to
the various postings, sensible and inane, that Mr. Black
has made to the infamous Irish traditional music mailing list known to
its members
as IRTRAD (correct pronunciation
never decided), of which Mr. Black has been
a member since Fall 1995 (though his recent posting activity has been
minimal, one
might even say miniscule.)
DISCLAIMER:
Most of the IRTRAD material would probably be of very limited interest
to those not
involved in Irish traditional music, but in-joke boring as it may be,
there's certainly nothing
there to offend, so feel free to partake if you wish.
Also note that I have added a "Reference"
section to the Scripta site, which is
basically an area where I can put documents having to do with various
non-fictional
topics (like banjos, harmonization, etc.) that may be helpful to
interested parties.
