“I keep six honest-serving men, They taught me all I knew.
Their names are What and Why and When, and How and Where and Who.”

-Rudyard Kipling

           The spot doesn't typically wonder much about such questions but does provide a clear answer for Mr. Where. It offers far less to the other honest-serving men. The spot would disagree but I must insist, although I suppose it's possible the spot assumes we can all easily see the clues it knows. To be fair, there are many. This page will attempt to serve these gentlemen with all the sleuthing we can muster but some of them ask harder questions than others. Mr. Why can be particularly vague and stingy and Mr. How is not much better. They seem to feed off of each other at times. Mr. When is somewhat agreeable but very hard to pin down, especially when he gets to reminiscing. Mr. Who is always more than willing to share but he's a bit of a narcissist and often unreliable. The spot scoffs openly but still, as always, offers a place for eternity to all.  I can't complain, far from it. The spot is eager to share in the best way it knows how. By comparison, Father Time and Mother Nature refuse to give an inch. Fortunately we have a loyal ally in this endeavor, Mr. Wonder. He has a way of cajoling his compatriots to work together. Allow me to introduce you. His friends call him Irving.
