32nd

I logged on to the blog with nothing particular in mind ... apart from the usual vague feeling of unease at letting life slip by while sitting in a 6 by 6 cubicle, lighted by 4 neons overhead and a computer screen in front.

The cubicle walls in brown and white pre-fab boards that can be easily replaced, interspersed with small glass windows and white boards ... through the glass windows, you can see some of your neighbor's ceiling while seated, and your neighbor when standing. The windows and boards all filled with markings ... hieroglyphics of our era ... we the temple priests creating the magic that runs this world, arcane, convoluted, and invisible ... allowing the vast populace to use things totally unaware of the huge complexity that underlies the simple buttons that he or she presses.

The first two paragraphs however are just a minor digression from ... well, I am not quite sure what. However, when I logged in, I noticed that I have 31 posts in the last 6 months or so since I started blogging.

This then is the 32nd post ... and that is important because we are supposed to have 32 teeth, the last 4 being the wisdom teeth, and somebody haveing 32 teeth by virtue of being toothy is supposedly wise as well.

So here, this 32nd post of mine should have been full of wisdom and such stuff.

However, this blog has now been delayed due to unavoidable circumstances.
