After nearly twenty years of unbroken creative output I hit a bone dry wall, and haven't had an inspiration since sometime around '04. Suddenly I'm awash in ideas. I read the last several entries over at Froth from Walt last night. Great stuff. But there won't be much in the way of serious content over here. I think I'm going to let today's post set the tone. If you're lookin' to get silly, you've come to the right place.<BR/><BR/>JWMJWMhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05564732483476859555noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5415946761607993140.post-45529122184944131762009-01-19T13:19:00.000-08:002009-01-19T13:19:00.000-08:00Well, I am happy for you.

There was a time when I was new, and made a few ripples in the ol' pond. Yessir! But now . . . ehhh. <BR/><BR/>In fact, just this morning, I phoned in my usual order to the local coffee bistro-and-internet-cafe, and the guy on the phone sez, "Walt <I>who?</I>" It didn't used to be like that, believe me.<BR/><BR/>I know: <I>"Go away."</I> I will.walthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01388218390016612051noreply@blogger.com
