I have come to realize that the English language is changing more rapidly than is my ability to learn. When people can talk in whole sentences using words that didn't exist just a few years ago... something is really happening in the lingusitic evolutionary chain!
For instance... today, I felt the need to create a blog, so I booted my PC, loaded windows, turned on my cablemodem to connect to the Internet, launched my browser, googled "blogging" and tada! Now I just need to download some jpegs from my thumbdisk and add a few pics to my site. Stick that in your zip-loc bag and smoke it....
Now... 15 years ago, that sentence would have been considered code and would get the CIA all excited about what secrets I might be selling to the Russians.... 15 years from now, it may well be considered classic literature... as difficult to comprehend as Shakespeare is to me now! "But, soft! What light through yonder window breaks? It is the east, and Juliet is the sun."
huh?
So.. I forge onward... with "blogging" being the latest verb in my repertoire. So ends my first entry...
As Shakespeare would say...
"I go, and it is done; the bell invites me." "Parting is such sweet sorrow".
or as Arnold Schwarzenegger put it:
"I'll be back"
