To begin with I cannot post here now without acknowledging the fact that I have not been here in quite awhile. I simply ran out of words.
Putting finger to keyboard here on my own blog has played second fiddle to my love of responding to , and reading posts on other blogs. They had the initial motivation to bring subjects to the forefront that I felt compelled to speak to. Although I have had several points I wanted to make on my own, finding the time, or inclination to post a long screed on my own has been difficult.
I have in this year played champion to my cause at several of the local blogs, and even posted a response on one that would be considered a well known national blog. One response on a behemoth the size of "Crooks and Liars" which consisted of eight words more, or less. To no end. It was ignored. Much like many of the responses I have posted locally, it was merely a post script. An also ran. But I said what I felt, and found myself quite pleased to see that I really did not adversely effect the course of events in human history.
That being said:
Let's pretend for now that I have been in a coma for these past months, and move on. I am not leaving again.
My posts will be,(for the most part) short, and will beg for counterpoint. Please respond as you see fit.
