Mildly interesting coincidence...
Courtesy of TiL, we learn that on this very day, in 1763, Samuel Johnson and James Boswell first met and in commemoration of this event, on this very day in 1791 Boswell published his Life of Johnson. In and of itself, this is a fun bit of information to know.
Interestingly, I had a new client give me a lovely 1793 Second and Augmented Edition of Life of Johnson just yesterday. I love it when the universe works in entertaining ways...
