The Obdurate Eye, From Garth Spencer, who writes:

So she went into the garden to cut a cabbage leaf to make an apple pie; and while she was there, a great she-bear in the street put its head through the kitchen window. “What! No soap?” So he died, and she very imprudently married the gardener; and there were the Joblillies, and the Pickninnies, and the Grand Panjandrum with the little round button at top, and they all fell to playing catch-as-catch-can, until the gunpowder ran out at the heels of their boots.

From N3F:

With this mailing I am sending a copy of Tightbeam 366. There has been one change. We are moving the longer articles toward the rear of the magazine, so Jesse Silver’s wonderful anime reviews now appear late rather than early in the magazine.
