While Bird

'While Bird' is an anagram of 'Whil Bride' - the internet pseudonym of William McBride.| A While Bird is winged, and seemingly weightless, but, instead of soaring to limitless heights, it will dance and flit about just at the level of the treetops, looking down, checking back, bearing a quiet, melancholy patience. | This is my favourite website, and it changes according to my tastes.| These days you are likely to find here: Proust quotes, AU and US politicking notes, Burt Bacharach Feel Goods and the odd piece of patented Proesy. Other interests include: the ways in which theinternetchangeslives, quotes about hard work, and, of course, Sex and the Dead. Get in touch: will.bride[at]gmail.com
