This should show up as the title to a blog entry 20250913

Loren ispum etc.   What do I remember?

Alfred Edward Housman
With Rue My Heart Is Laden  - from "A Shropshire Lad"

WIth rue my heart is laden
For golden friends I had
For many a rose-lipt maiden
And many a lightfoot lad.

By brooks too broad for leaping
The lightfoot boys are laid;
The rose lipt girls are sleeping
In fields where roses fade.

That's a photo of the poet in 1910.

This is a poem that my roommate and best friend at the time shared and would recite to each other.  Actually we loved this one even more, that starts with "Let us go then you and I, when the evening is spread out against the sky, like a patient etherized upon a table..." Prufrock indeed:  

Another picture? Sure why not.

Ok that is enough for a demonstration.

Google translate for the English word "travel" includes this option, which is 

and seems appropriate for a travelogue.

While it's sometimes hard to enter Hebrew characters directly, a common internationalization trick is to use "punycode" -  which in many browsers and text interpretation software will convert to international characters.  In this case, "xn--fdbc6inag" becomes the title of both this blog and the title of this post.

There is also then the option to register a domain name that will show in a browser accordingly.  Not all systems support punycode encoding / interpretation, but if this is for a private (mostly) blog, who cares who can or can't see?  They can wait for the book.
