I do not think I would like to be taken
\nfor someone of whom I’m not. Is that
\ngood English?, perhaps not. Say I, fuck-it.
\nWordPress sends me messages from people
\nwho are willing to take the time, and I admit
\nit inflates my ego no end.
\nFunk and Wagnalls def.”ego n. 1. The thinking,
\nfeeling, and acting self that is conscious
\nof itself and aware of its distinction
\nfrom the objects of its thought and perceptions.”
\nI guess I’ll buy def. no. 1., although I have a
\nproblem with the word “distinction” vis-a-vis the text.
\nIf you don’t exactly fathom what I’m trying to say,
\nnever fear, I think we may be in the same boat.
\nSeriously, ha,ha!, there come remarks which I file
\nin my mind and in the spirit of economy I attempt response.
\nSome have asked do I get much spam? My guess is that
\nmodern day spam is anything thrown at you, impersonally,
\nto see if it will stick. Frankly, the only things that stick
\nto me are personal comments, repeat, personal comments.
\nIt’s, how can I say it?, rewarding.
