Goodenough Gismo

  • Gismo39
    This is the classic children's book, Goodenough Gismo, by Richmond I. Kelsey, published in 1948. Nearly unavailable in libraries and the collector's market, it is posted here with love as an "orphan work" so that it may be seen and appreciated -- and perhaps even republished, as it deserves to be. After you read this book, it won't surprise you to learn that Richmond Irwin Kelsey (1905-1987) was an accomplished artist, or that as Dick Kelsey, he was one of the great Disney art directors, breaking your heart with "Pinocchio," "Dumbo," and "Bambi."

As a big fan of Arthur C. Clarke, I can only hope that when he died and came face to face with God, they both recognized what they were missing.

Lovely thought. I hope so too.

Which part of this do you not understand?

"He left written instructions that his funeral be strictly secular and had directed that "Absolutely no religious rites of any kind, relating to any religious faith, should be associated with my funeral"

Not a fan of Pascal's Wager I suspect.
