Amazing, everyone seems to have the same number of heads, horns, tails,
limbs, tentacles, wings, dress taste, etc, as normal people.
On behalf of future archivists I would request that you record as many
details with the pictures as possible: the occasion, the place, those
who attended, the date, etc. Without these details too many photos
become anonymous. Those who preserve such information will be grateful;
and writing with pencil is just as good as pen.
And avoid putting them in albums with plastic sheaths or covers over the
photos. Such contraptions are a crime against photography.

"Ideas are trifles, just a few words...The fewer the words, the greater
the importance. I love you. Three words. Goodbye. One word. Tinier than
I am, but with such power, such importance...I don't yet know what idea
I will become, but I do know it is just one word, a trifle, as I am a
Trifle, so it must be a very great idea indeed."
