[personal profile] baritonejeff asks about portraits of George Sand. As far as I know Nadar's is the only photograph. But I went to Wikipedia Commons to see what they had and found this image of the younger George (who was famous for cross-dressing) looking absolutely stunning in a top hat.

It makes me want to read her novels.

A dear, now departed, friend of mine had a truly nasty little Pomerian named "Gesualdo", after the renaissance composer. When he would tell people Gesualdo's name, they thought he said "Just Waldo." They would then promptly say "Hi Waldo!"
