Guess post

Yesterday, 19 April, was the Feast of St. Expeditus – patron saint of procrastinators.  I put off posting about him till now.

He was a Roman soldier and is so depicted, also holding aloft a sign or cross with the word “HODIE” on it (“TODAY”) and stepping on crow, which makes a noise that sounds like Latin “cras… tomorrow”.

Who wrote this?

The Tatler of 1709 was founded by Jonathan Swift, aka Isaac Bickerstaff. The Taos Tatler was founded by ex-New Yorker Anthony Fountain in 2018, in the same spirit, he hopes, as the original. Please send mail to taostatler@gmail.com.
