The last couple of weeks have been pretty intense, so most of my philosophizing has been going on off line. In short, my dog Simon passed away last weekend, and I quit my job this week. Both rather life-changing events. One necessitates much weeping, the other much scouring of on and off line publications for gainful employment.

I don’t have the heart or strength yet to write a fitting tribute to my little dog. He was an awesome dog, I miss him all the time, and I’ll leave it at that for now. Peace.
