Mail Call

One of the things I’ve been spending too much time on is email.  I’m going to be cutting back on it and Social media in general.  Being a bit of a night owl - I’m limiting my time to 2 hours a night, and not checking email during the day.

When I first set this up, I wondered why anyone would want to Blog. I mean, I've always kept a journal, but I wouldn't want the thoughts there to be public. Especially since I've seen some of the problems that some lady bloggers have had with creepos. But then this morning, riding on the transit to the orifice - I had a realization. Many years ago - a Millenium back, even. I was in Journalism school - attempting to become one of those ink-stained folks that crafted the daily noisepaper. At that time, one of my thoughts was to have a regular column in some newspaper, doing a sort of "slice of life" chat column. Doing a daily (or weekly) column on life and my observations of same. Writiing in a chatty friendly style - just like Bob Edwards from the old "Calgary Eye-Opener" - I...
