Here I go...

This is the maiden post in my new journal. For more than two years I kept one over at LiveJournal but I obliterated it six months ago in a pique of anti-connectedness. I wished to focus solely on a paper journal. The problem is, I'll often write something down on paper and ruefully reflect on how it would make a nice post for an online journal. Perhaps I am hopelessly dependent on the matrix of the web and probably will be at the forefront of humanity diving into Kurzweil's singularity. (If this were a true blog, I would make "Kurzweil's singularity" a link, but I won't trouble myself with such HTML'ing. Either you know what I'm talking about or you don't, and if you don't you can look it up.)
