I was sitting on my sofa and thinking, "It's been a long time since I got out and just aimlessly roamed the countryside. Maybe I should plan to take the biggest of my four dogs and just start walking, an Ozark Mountains "walkabout" that might take me to an entirely new life. In fact, it might even reanimate my existence in ways I can not guess at from the safety and comfort of the sofa. Then, as if it were an epiphany delivered by some unseen power, I realized the last time I left the safety and comfort of a sofa to "walkabout", I left a job of nearly eighteen years, a marriage of the same span, and the Northeastern part of the country to arrive a few days later in Midwest Texas! Yeah, it worked out okay in the long run, but it sure was a longer journey than I anticipated. Today is more like a day to surf the Internet and go places I could never go by auto, foot, or plane, or train! Space...my final frontier only to be realized through the magic of my computer.
Did I say, "my computer"? I did, didn't I? I guess the cat's out of the bag now! Everyone on the planet will flock to my home, (assuming I tell them where I REALLY live!), just to see my magical computer...it's not like anyone else's you know. I kid you not. My computer is both a work of high-tech and magic combined to take me places and let me record those journeys of flight and fancy.
What else? For now, I'll give your brain a break from the brainless ramblings of one with little to concern themselves with...beyond of course, world hunger, ever worsening levels of education, religious fervor, failed technological promises, corrupt politics (is there any other kind?) and more...
