Welcome to the Wakefield Doctrine (the theory of clarks, scotts and rogers)

This is the Wakefield Doctrine’s contribution to the Ten Things of Thankful (TToT) bloghop.

Found on the doorsteps of St. Dominque’s Convent in Crissfield, Maryland, the Principia Gratutacia were painstakingly translated by Srs. Cletus and Ryan and promptly locked away. Late on the evening of the Feast of St. Rita of Cascia, the tract was purloined by a novitiate, our Founderess, Lizzi and, a young friend, Virginia Dare and spirited off to England.

The rest, as they say, is fiction.

However, what survives is this bloghop. Dyanne, it’s current hostina-de-segete and her co-hosts: Mimi, Lisa and Kristi (hostina emeritae)

So link up your lists of the people, places and things that have elicited, provoked and otherwise, alright-already-with-the-blogging! state of gratitude.

1) Una

2) Phyllis

3) the Wakefield Doctrine

4) bloghops  the Six Sentence Story and the Unicorn Challenge (jenne and ceayr)

5) the Six Sentence Cafe & Bistro (metaphorically, of course)

6) photo at top? taken on an ocean beach little more than 20 minutes from here

7) gotta, though, on the surface surely as redundant an observation as saying ice is cold, go to modern technology for a grat

8) something something

9) the days are getting longer

10) Secret Rule 1.3 (Book of Secret Rules aka the Secret Book of Rules)

no, don’t ask… ok, if you insist… I was commenting over at ‘the ‘corn’ and for god-knows what reason, my reaction to one of the stories was ‘well, lah di dah, lah di dah’ which, of course most clarks will identify with the incomparable clark, Diane Keaton, as Annie Hall.
