In the Beginning

...was the Word. This is my umpteenth first entry. When I began in earnest on Yahoo, I was filled with cheerful good intentions, the sun was shining, the birds were singing, and all was well, and all was very well.

Then I tried to do a simple edit - no problem. Then I published my simple edit - big problem. Having garnered the wisdom of these years of typing, writing, editing, programming, I would not fall into the trap of attempting to follow the same simple steps over and over. Why, the very definition of insanity is doing the same thing repeatedly expecting different results, nez pas? And yet, the editor in red letters urged me to madness: Your Post Did Not Publish, Try Again.

Screw yew.

So now I have abandoned the easy to load on my agonizingly slow dialup connection Yahoo blog and taken on the big hairy fraught with loading pitfalls Blogger.

And where are my cheer, my good intentions? Sneering, I see them lying at my feet with all the rest of the flotsam used over the years to pave my road to The Bad Place.

At them, not you, i snarl:

Screw yew. Oh yeah, and welcome to my blog.
