When I sat down to write this, my three hundredth blog, my
first inclination was to use self-deprecating humor. Something along the lines
of how proud I am to have a large body of work. Sure, it has no real value, but
hey, it's still large. If a person were to sit down and try to read all my blogs,
the verb "wade" might come to mind. But then I thought, "No. I
am not going to waste this momentous event with false modesty. I am going to
trumpet my accomplishment. I am going to take a well- deserved bow for all the years
of hard unpaid work. Work done just for the love of doing it. And let's not
forget, I've really spilled my guts in some of these things. A man's life and
innermost thoughts exposed for all to see. And oh, how I've labored over them.
Literally thousands of hours, grinding away, trying to find just the right
combination of words to make you laugh. What was I thinking with the self-
deprecation? All those blogs Who else has done that? I'll tell you who. Nobody.
Just me. Yeah, that's right. You heard me. And I'll tell you another thing. No
one ever will do it. You know why? Because everybody else has a life!
Okay, I'm done
trumpeting.
And I think I need
help.
Maybe I don’t you all seem to have a pretty firm handle on
my universe and all that floats along with me until the next time Toodles!
