Busy

I've been doing a lot of writing, just not here. Back tomorrow.

UPDATE: I was kind of thrilled to find out that I could research and write a 600-word paper in three hours. Blogging is like weightlifting for bloviators.

Indeed it is. Having grown up a lawyer, I've long harbored a high opinion of my own writing. Blogging has made me realize that it was not as good as I thought it was, and that I could improve quickly with practice.

It is amazing how the feedback/criticism flexes those rhetorical muscles.

it shore have enhandced my brain pire!

That happened to me too - I wondered what happened! Blogging has to be the conditioning! Not only fast, but sharp, too, no 'loose baggy monster' prose for me or thee!

Vive Montaigne! Vive La Rochefoucauld!

You're right, Ghost - at Oxford U, they forced us read our essays out loud once a week in front of our tutorial group.

We got better fast.

Mmmm. Hulk not understand reference.

Mr. Snitch, is David Banner aware that you, his counsel, sworn to uphold his best interests, are poking fun at him. You should be ashamed of yourself.

Oyster, if it makes you feel any better, I •AM• ashamed of myself. Most of the time. And for better reasons than that, even!

And I didn't know what 'bloviator' meant, either. I thought maybe it was a term used in Hustler magazine. May I please go crawl back in my hidey-hole now?
