November 8th's posting can be written as "1(a leaf falls)one1iness." e.e.'s vertical version is to suggest both the shape of a #1 and the fall of a single leaf. The poem contains both the theme of loneliness and the image of a falling leaf. Quite clever for a guy who didn't know how to use capital letters.
Richard Russo's placard above the bar reads: "Here stop and spend a social hour in harmless mirth and fun. Let friendship reign, be just and kind, and evil speak of none." A nice sentiment for a tavern wall.
