Being dead gives one more time for reflection -- except for poor ol' Drac. Seems he's got more than seven years of bad luck coming.

For myself, I find the process of writing helps me to formulate thoughts as they come through. Just because the darn things are echoing in my head doesn't require that they be my thoughts. But since the darn things are echoing in my head I'll take that as license to refine them via the process of writing.

You dear reader appear to be (at least for the moment) a participant in that process.

If you've read your Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy you'll understand when I say "Enjoy."
