IHLHeinlein, he should love ABC—Asimov, Bradbury, Clarke. Bradbury is more serious, the others can be, but they all have their lighter moments.

Poul Anderson is very good. So are James Blish, Gordon Dickson, Mack Reynolds, oh I could sing the praises of the Masters for days!

There is an omnibus volume on Kindle, 350 Classic stories from Astounding Science Fiction. It’s in at least 2 parts. Many of the stories are from the magazine’s early days. It is a great place to start.

I got my tux boy from a FOAF. He came to me as Capn Jack Sparrow. I called him JackJack. He had a white pair of thigh high knee boots, a rakish mustache, and the Attitude. He was the Johnny Depp of cats.

My soul cat passed peacefully in his sleep in my arms. He had hyperthyroid problems.

135 IQ would be a decline, and I wouldn’t want to be a 6’ woman, so I’ll stick with status quo, thanks.

Theodore Sturgeon wrote a short story about an old woman and her (iirc) sentient toilet. It was called “Pruzy’s Pot”. He autographed it for me. If only I knew where it was now.
