You have to write a retraction

– “You have to write a retraction on your blogh.”

– “Cripe. What’d I get wrong now?”

– “Well, your blogh needs a fact checker. The sprayer is only 16 gallons, and I’m pretty sure it’s not quite 500 meters to the frogpond.”

– “Really? You think that’s the sort of thing that will give readers a false idea of how to live like this?”

– “I just think you need to be accurate. Also, that note about the lower garden is just wrong. The lower garden’s water source couldn’t be mote reliable.”

– “The lower garden’s water source is a work of magic and I will write all about it in detail, on the blogh whose only reader is you. But it’s still essentially a bucket in a brook– it’s not quite turning on a tap. Plus, by the way, I bailed on that doctor’s appointment today, because the Lyme-like bullseyeish thing is gone.”

– “You see what I mean about auhenticity and facts? That last bit about the doctor wasn’t anywhere in our conversation yesterday. You’re making up these very words– these ones too! And these– they’ve never come out of my mouth.”

– “Then I suppose we’re all square on the retraction business?”
