A Blue Announcement
Its time...time to get back to writing...I have lost my voice, metaphorically speaking...that is I have lost my writing voice, but 8 or 10 blog entries and I'll "be zen again"...Hey anyone besides me catch Tom Brady saying that he needed to stay zen for another three weeks...Ahhh the Tao of NFL football...what is the sound of no footballs spiraling?
I guess the natural segue would be to ask Tweaker (sic) Siddartha that question..."Tweaker, what is the sound of no footballs spiraling?" Whats that? Blue??? "The sound of no footballs spiraling is Blue?" "Huh?" I have heard of people that hear sounds in color: synesthesia, but not hearing sounds in color...???? Tweaker suffers from anti-synesthesia...??? What? Well I dont know if Tweaker ever suffers...his glazed eyes and permanent grin making him look like he has an all-season pass at happy town...woohoo....hey wait, I wonder if anti-synesthesia is Tweaker's zen super power...stay tuned...
The announcements are that Im thinking about two new characters: mumbler Moe Merrier the sick sikh and C' Alia, the illegitimate daughter of a Brazilian Samba Dancer with an innate understanding of superstring theory.
Im not sure how Im going to write about a character who understands superstring theory when I barely understand silly string theory, but hey...that's an artistic challenge.
Also, it should be noted that Moe Merrier is an alliterative Thomas Pynchon homage...remember Mucho Maas?? Uh oh Moe is mumbling. Whats that Moe? You say you know the answer to no footballs spiraling question?! Huh...you saw it on Jeopardy? a before and after category? huh? Remember your answer must be phrased in the form of a question! okay...lets hear it... "What is John Cage fighting?"...uh thanks Moe...thanks for playing...we have some lovely parting gifts...
Thanks to all who inspired me to write again...you know who you are.
Steely Dan. Steely Dan. Scream my name.
Blue.

You haven't lost your voice at all - not even rusty! Please, stop the self-deprecation (self-depreciation), although that too lends a certain hue to the palette of your prose.
And thank you - if I may be so presumptuous!
