I thought I’d go a different route today. In part because none of my posts were going where I wanted them to go and I started generating random facts and thought why the hell not.
I love random and useless facts. I hope you enjoy these.

- Ernest Vincent Wright’s novel Gadsby has over 50,000 words none of which contain the letter E.
