already burping appetite. they may be
versions of an old, established habit. they may
also be ideas that might make you laugh.

I am giving them away. treat them as stray
puppies if you must. pick them up, nurture
them, make ‘em shine. perhaps.

15. If you like any ideas, feel free to make them your own. Or give me a shout
out and tell me if you want me to help develop the idea further. Or write to
me if you have an idea but don’t know how to get about developing it
further.
If you love the ideas listed here enough to sponsor my ticket to the Cannes, I
wouldn’t mind that either.
