My neighbours must wonder why I'm laughing out loud at 11 pm.
A fine romp through language and concepts.
Multiverse indeed.
Maybe seminal instead of seminol?

Re: Rock Climber's Hands
It's certainly helped. I'm more upright than I was yesterday. Before the treatment I looked as if I'd been kicked in on my right hand side. My Grandaughter said I looked like a letter 'C'. She offered to 'kick me in' from the other side to see if it would straighten me up. ;-) The Chiro Lady warn...

Rock Climber's Hands
I recently visited a chiropractor for the first time. Twisted my back and it's taking too long to put itself right. I may revisit my first impressions later, about the intimidating black and chrome massage bench, etc. But there is one over-riding image which calls out to be recorded ;-) ===== Th...

Re: Night Vision
Writer's dreams are strange beasts which follow their own dream logic. But they are often fun and provocative to write about.

Re: Emma
They're not predictable to the minute so I don't see the doorstep ritual every day, but when I do it always makes me smile.

Hi, Deb. Perhaps best read after the insanity has peaked and faded.

The madness approaches ;-)
A time of voluntary madness, starting with the Festival of Fools. The first of April, when minds expand, and time contracts down to snatched moments. Thirty days seems a long time, the first week limping along as mental circuits re-open, like a Tibetan monk's third eye. Then the middle weeks are go...

Then and Now
Limbering up for NAPO ;-) ===== Then and Now Then... Eighteen and indestructible. All the time in the world, filled with limitless possibilities. Now... I know I'm not indestructible, but it's a hard belief to shake. I know time has its limits, but the possibilities are still here. Guess I'll never ...

Emma
One of those daily snippets I see from my window. ===== Emma Every morning she sees her man off, even when it's cold, and dark, with rain hissing into their porch. He, dressed for his outdoor job, resting his tools on the parcel-drop box as he pulls on his boots. She, barefoot in nightie or dressin...
