A Criminal Offense + Long Overdue Post

________________________________________________________________________________________________
 
 
The image above
will naturally be 
enlarged below
because
that is a bylaw of
The Blogiverio Kingdom
 
But
the "Criminal Offence"
involved posting 
my Uncle Preston's image
without completing
the daily
NY Times Sudoku puzzle
before doing so
 
I am 100 percent certain
that has never happened before
 
However,
the Artificial Intelligensia Factor 
may reduce that percentage
significantly
 ____
_________ 
 

Uncle Preston
is seated on 
the viewer's left
with his second wife,
"Aunt Caroline" 
gleefully smiling
in front of him
  
Like a gazillion couples
on Planet Earth,
they met in recovery 
 
 
The message to my Uncle
is this:
 
I love you more than 
numbers can count 
and 
THANK YOU 
 for successfully 
including me
in your will
 
But your first wife 
—my mother's sister—
AUNT BETTY
was responsible
for the other
successful inheritance
 
 
 She is also responsible
for 37 per cent
of the irregularities
in my personalities 
and is no stranger
to these pages

  1. Why did you exclude the surname of Uncle Preston?

  2. Out of respect for the woman I called "Aunt Caroline"
    for many pleasant phone calls we had.
    Especially when she appreciated
    my Father's status as Designated Driver,
    long before that term had popular usage
