For the readers

For the sake of any friend, foe, or stranger who takes or makes the time to read my thoughts, I thank you for your patience and your interest, (or, more likely I thank you for reading my ramblings despite having come across my blog accidentally, while actually searching for "desert" or "juniper" or something else entirely unrleated.) However you came to be here, make yourself at home and enjoy the surroundings. One thing I especially enjoy about this business of blogging is the anonimity-you don't know if I'm black, white, purple, or polka-dotted . . . and I'm not going to tell you.
