A Suitcase Of Used Notes

Dear Reader,

I must apologise for the delay with Part Three of The Long Road Home. Circumstances (well, alligators) beyond my control are keeping me from my computer.

I feel this is an excellent excuse that will merit your trust, being both implausible and basically true.

But to sate your relentless appetite for The Truth, I present a photo that I received under plain cover this morning with a blackmail note.

This could be his finest hourAh, the folly of youth.

I seem to recall that my mother keeps an 8x10 of this on the mantlepiece.

In fact, she may have sent the note.

I must remember to take flowers when I visit for Mother's Day tomorrow. Some really nice ones.

Happy Mother's Day to all of you maternal types out there.

You're the best.

More Than Just A Clipshow

All kinds of ideas occurred to me about today's blog entry.

It's my 200th, and I'm pretty damned pleased about it.

Most of the concepts I came up with were flashbacks to earlier entries, and had more than a whiff of me bouncing up and down and shouting, Lookit all this cool stuff I done!

I'm proud of my blog, but it was all rather self-congratulatory.

And it misses the point, which is this:

I blog because I enjoy writing, but without folk reading it, I'd have stopped long ago. So, thank you for reading my blog over the last couple of years; you've made it all possible.

TWO HUNDRED, BABY!
I'll write some more entries soon, and I hope you'll enjoy those too.

Pip pip,

Indigo

No Distinguishing Features

I've felt recently that life does not contain enough intellectual rigour.

On a typical day, I rarely encounter much that requires me to rub more than a handful of brain cells together. I mean, do I walk to work or drive? Wear blue socks or black? Or order a Mighty Meaty pizza with jalapeños or a Pepperoni Passion with black olives? Or both? *

[* I know, a total no-brainer.]

You see the problem. And it worries me. I don't want to lose my razor-keen mind; I may need it sometime.

Someone suggested that a white jigsaw might be the way to go. Have you seen those? One thousand similar-looking pieces, with no distinguishing features beyond edge pieces? I love jigsaws, have endless patience, and it would be a real brain-tickler of a challenge.

But no, I need more.

As you probably know, I'm an old hand at the Rubik's Cube. What could be more of a challenge than taking The Cube to the next level?

The ultimate brain-tickler?It's my own design, and I can't put it down.

I'm sticking close to the phone in case Parker Brothers call.



Captain's Blog - Supplemental

Hi all,

Thanks for reading today's post; you're the best.

My recent numbers have been great, and it's always a pleasure to see that spike in the stats when I post. But I'm curious because, beyond a handful of die-hard regulars who stop by the say hi, I've no idea who any of you are!

If you feel so inclined (and as a one-time thing), why not introduce yourself? You know, who you are, what region you live in, whether you blog, and maybe the first of my entries you read? Or anything else you fancy telling me about.

Just a thought.

Thanks, Indigo
