Miscellany.

1. The Hennepin County Library has over a dozen copies of August Wilson's "Piano Lesson." If you do not have a library card and would like to check it out, please let me know and I will check it out for you.
2. "Good-by" is not a misspelling of "good-bye." Both are acceptable, as is "goodbye" and "goodby."
3. "Ironical" is a word. It is an adjective derivative of "ironic" (also an adjective).
