The System of Dr. Tarr and Professor Fether
Looks like the person who needs to read this won't get it, so I'm going to post it here and everybody can stare in awe of my amazing ossumness. Of course, I doubt any of you would get it.
After I read the story I was inspired to write this:
When, online the other night, Thursday, you said that the story, The System of Dr. Tarr and Professor Fether, was funny and not very Poe-esque, meaning that it wasn't a "dark, death, black, ebony, sable (another word for black)," I had assumed, because of my experience with Shakespeare, whom many people believe did not write the plays, such as Romeo and Juliet, and sonnets, such as XVI, that bear his (Shakespeare's) name, that perhaps the story at hand, The System of Dr. Tarr and Professor Fether, would possibly contain a footnote informing the reader who was, at the time, myself, that certain literary experts theorized that this story may not, in fact, have been written by Edgar Allan Poe, the supposed author of the work, a short story; however, when, last night, I read it, I noticed a certain Poe-esque quality about it: his (Poe's) short story, The System of Dr. Tarr and Professor Fether, had many phrases, one might say, set off from the rest of the sentence by either (because there are two acceptable punctuation markings to use) a pair of, or two, parentheses, or, more frequently, commas.
