Hello world!
Here we are - to borrow a phrase - "back in the saddle again." I am really sensing a need / desire / call to write. The purpose is multi-faceted (hey, a good thing for MULTIPLE Strands, right?)
First, as a manner for me to journal non-personal information. More and more I read articles, see news, etc. and need to comment. I've tried Twitter; it works just fine. However, the character limit is very constraining, and the concept of Twitter is for very quick, brief, sound-bite type publication. I want to expound further than the 140 characters (or whatever it is).
Second, I want to publish for a broader audience. I have no delusion of grandeur; I do not expect hundreds, much less thousands or millions of readers. However, even publishing to a dozen people will fall in bounds of this blog.
Thirdly, it can serve as a self-discipline of writing and organizing thoughts - which is always a good thing.
Finally, this blog can serve as a record of past thoughts, and a way for me to find those tidbits of information I remember, but cannot put my finger upon in terms of reference.
So ... here goes. back in the saddle again.
