Preamble
Preamble By Way of Introduction While the Affair Link kaleidoscope offers up limitless varietals of shock and awe, its blogosphere immediately and fixedly resonated with me. For nigh a couple of years, I have prowled its brightly-lit roads and shadowy alleyways, rarely frustrated in my search for engaging stories, insights, commentary and graphic delights. Up until now, my schedule constrained my ability to do more than imbibe the creative energies of others and offer up my own spontaneous responses (to be sure, occasionally supported by rapid-fire googling and wordsmithing). No one appreciates more than I the energy and commitment required to sustain a blog and I long feared that I could not muster enough time to do it justice. At this moment I find myself sidelined with an athletic injury that will require several weeks- if not a few months- recovery. To that effect, my oft-referenced sessions at the gym or on local trails are curtailed and my calendar has suddenly accumulated some slack. So I will breathe some Life into this blog and hope make it a constant in this community. Intent "The unexamined life is not worth living," Socrates challenged his accusers at the trial that ended with his iconic cup of Hemlock. As with other bloggers, I aspire to present- in varying inflections (mediation, reaction. stimulation and the like)- the worlds that connect us. I use the plural because I share Oscar Wilde's perception that we each live three lives- a public, a private and a secret life. While we usually strive to place them in mutually-exclusive orbits about our Sun/Ego, their transits inevitably coincide and their heavenly bodies periodically collide. Indeed, it is in these nexi that Life gets interesting and the proverbial shit gets real. Our own uncomfortable Twilight Zones. And A shout out to the many bloggers and correspondents that have encouraged me: Enjoy! |

Y'know... some of the best bloggers that I read here only post sporadically. In fact, there seems to be an almost inverse correlation between volume and value. YMMV
