Back with fire in hand

A trillion thoughts later I return. Adventures and calamities, a close relative and so many sacred cows have now passed into the oblivion of no more. Scores of notions of what indeed to use a blog for have come and gone, all too fleeting to be captured in this software trap. All for good cause, as evolution of the massive colony of entities that I call me leaves for you dear reader, a very much improved version. At least that is what I would have you believe. Having said essentially nothing, future posts are easily guaranteed improvement.

where eye lie

I eye

Upon viewing the first entry of my first blog, in my mind the late Sir Alec Guinness appeared before me as Obi-Wan Kenobi. His mellifluous voice asserted, "You have taken your first step into a larger world." I nodded, and then he added, "Please don't ever call me again, I find this so very corny, I really do detest kitsch!" I released his image and smiled. I made no such promise before he left, and I never did have much respect for the dead.

Urgent emergent property

...and so it begins. One step closer to Singularity? One can but hope to wonder. Unfortunately, time is against us, as everything seems to be moving ever faster, and your zaz's thoughts emerge ever slower for they must trudge through the ever denser dendritic thicket imprisoned within an all-too finite skull. If only there wasn't so much to get in the way of a more intimate interface with this machine.

In addition to lamenting the aching gap between what is within my grasp and what haunts my fantasies, I hope to share the occasional ecstasies of discovering exquisite products of mind and hand and perhaps gathering applause for those responsible. But all is not well in the sphere of my perception, and reeking shit may explode from these fingertips aimed at those whose efforts serve to chain down the flowering of homo sapiens sapiens, wasting most precious resources and incurring the wrath of the zaz. I hope you'll see it my way, if not, flame away and hopefully there may be understanding if not alignment. May we think before we stink.
