I'm gonna miss you Art.

How to be creative.

I read the this Hugh MacLeod ChangeThis manifesto today. I liked it very much. Since I believe most (of the 3) readers of this blog would appreciate this, I'm passing it along.

P.S. if you prefer not to mess with the PDF version found above, you can also find the original blog version here.

Sony Bravia - I think I might need one

Ms. Richmond? They're ready for you.

Thanks for the comments and the gentle (and sometimes not so gentle) reminders that it's been a while.

I have no real excuse other than to say that the muse has been on vacation, and so, perforce, was I. Sometimes I wish that writing were my career, but in the past weeks, I've been thrilled that it is not, else my kids would be starving, instead of stricken with affluenza.

I have several posts in the wings, starts and spurts yet, but soon to break forth visible, and hopefully, viable. Included in this mixed bag is the as yet unfinished, and loooong overdue response to cw's tag, which is high on my priority list.

Thanks gentle readers and lurkers for venturing, stumbling, drifting, zipping, perambulating, landing, linking, or otherwise, coming here.

all the best.
