Remember that horror I wrote about yesterday? I feel like I create something horrific when I try to fill up the space. This is wretched. I made something else that I liked - that looked like an envelope and had just one of these stamps - as a consolation envelope to put inside. Then I forgot to take a photo of it. I have more of those stamps - so I will do the same thing on the last five FEB envelopes that I've not done.

I came very close to deleting the following blurb when I did my final edit because the topic no longer amused me. But, if I deleted it, I'd have to find something else. So... maybe it's fitting that a real dud of an envelope is paired with a dud of an add-on.
Am I just being cheeky or am I complete fool to be taking on Aristotle? Yesterday's blurb from Wiki quoted Aristotle as saying: nature abhors an empty space. Excuse me, Aristotle, but who's the cheeky fool for suggesting that you know what nature abhors. Nature, AKA Mother Nature speaks for herself and she does not use words. Her actions speak louder than words.
Nature takes its course and there are plenty of examples of nature offering up empty space. Has anyone noticed those deserts? OK, technically they are full of sand - but that is splitting hairs. Deserts are visually quite sparse. So are prairies for that matter. How about the sky? The sky can run the entire spectrum from empty to full. I rest my case.
My apologies for calling Aristotle a cheeky, fool. He wasn't. He was simply a resident of a small peninsula so his perspective was provincial. He never went up in a hot air balloon or flew over any of the other continents. Did he understand the planets and orbits? Did he ever vacation anywhere? Who invented vacations?
