Greetings,
I am aware that this blog has active
writing from a dog and semi-active writing from a fish. With a cat now in the house the temptation to
label our residence as a zoo is becoming almost inevitable. As an aside, I must say that I am impressed
with the cat so far. He is a confident
male and apparently the strong silent type.
No need to babble on about his feelings and day to day activities on the
World Wide Web.
The dog, on the other hand, has a wide
range of feelings and needs. Despite
consistently showing a lack of good sense, I have now noticed that the dog has
a collection of miscellaneous ramblings that are easily accessible on the right
side of the blog page. How does the dog
rate? Why does the dog get this extra
visibility? Actually, I am fine with the
handy collection of postings but why does the Chairman not get similar
billing?
There is a practical reason for my
concern. I am losing track of my message
number. After the November 2011 Alert
(which fortunately ended well), this next posting should be labeled as a simple
message. I am guessing this post could
be labeled as the Sixth Message. But I’m
not sure. Moreover, to avoid repeating
what I have already posted in prior years, I would need to hunt back to a
previous post.
To track back through the months and
years to find my previous postings is cumbersome. The sheer volume of postings by the Publisher
is mind numbing. How does she do this? Will she ever run out of things to say? I only have something noteworthy to say every
year or so. Unless evidence is produced
that suggests my reasoning is deficient, I am making an open petition to the
Publisher to have my writings under a separate easily accessible section.
This blog has certainly enjoyed a wide
range of blog names through the years.
For semi-confidentiality, I am fairly content with the current
name. I appreciate the brief history of
the Chairman name near the top right of the page. Not to pick nits, but my label as very
modest, while appreciated, may be slightly exaggerated. How about the following; He is attempting to
be more modest. …Or something along that
line. Actually I don’t know what to say. You know, this writing about me business is
not as easy as it looks. Maybe I won’t
interfere and will just rely on the Publisher to sum up my life in a couple of
sentences.
If I recall, one of my previous
postings addressed this Chairman title issue (I now forget the message
number). Perhaps a reader could be
easily directed to the relevant post by having the same web page system for the
Chairman that has already been so kindly afforded to the dog.
On to the final issue. Do we really need to take pictures of our
physical ailments and post them? While
not a licensed vet or a doctor, I was struck by the similarity of the droopy
eye of the cat and the Publisher. Over
several days, when both would awaken from slumber, they would look at me with
one good eye. I will not speculate as to
how the ailments are transmitted or if they are remotely related. Fortunately, the cat eye and the human eye
appear to be on the mend.
And a heartfelt thanks to the
Publisher for washing up the dog after the latest misadventure. Oh, and thanks to the Publisher for the kind
words earlier this week.
All for now,
C
