Into the wild blue yonder!

Moving day is here. Weirdly enough, I woke up this morning to receive, in my in-box, an assignment from the ad agency that used to employ me. I did the thing, very poorly but in record time, and must now pack and vacate before another eight hours pass. Looks lke I will not be doing the Bob Vila thing. I will be doing another thing.

Hopefully, I will soon be back to do THIS thing.

Hmmm, that was interesting. Looks like somethings will always remain mystery.

I myself has been trying to solve the mystery of the legend that forces you to have "earn it before having it", for a wile now. Could not understand much though.

Let me know in case you get to understand the mystery of the Old Hound and the Legend

By the way, good writing style. I'd love to read more on similar topics

Best of luck with your move. That is one of my least favorite things. Hope to see you back to writing soon.

Can't wait to have you back doing this thing, after you get caught up with that other thing and hopefully you get some other thing to tide you over from that thing that will bring you back to this thing!

Joseph, please try to find and unpack the box with your computer stuff in it first. The internet has a big ole hole in it without your writing. I hate moving and am gonna do it also very soon for similar reasons as you. Hope everything goes smoothly and your back is strong. Moving is one of the most stressful things a human can do.

Dude, Bob Vila doesn't know the difference between a bearing wall and latex paint. NOBODY should be the Bob Vila thing.

It's July 4th, the day the United States of America celebrates its independence from the empire and it's sea-power/trade/financier control over much of the world.

How about a quiz for fun and mutual edification?

1. What family could be said to have had large influence upon Benjamin Franklin as a lad? (Hint: They had a very large library.)

2. The colonies were essentially bankrupted by the expenses/debt incurred during the Revolutionary war. How did we get out of that? (Hint: first Secretary of the Treasury)

3. Benjamin Franklin sailed to England in the spring of 1757 and stayed through February of 1775. How did he spend those years and who were his associates, especially as concerns science and technology? (Hint: Manchester, England's first industrial center.)

Have a safe holiday, everyone. And let's remember those who gave their very lives to give us, as their posterity, a free republic.

Joseph, I agree with Glenn and others re moving home. Best wishes to you and the family. It shouldn't have to be like this.
