What you read was not what I typed

I must apologize for the quality of Friday's posting. I have no idea what happened, other than the fact that a final bit of cutting and pasting proved deadly to a few of my phrases. I often wonder if, in our technological age of easy font choice, spell-checking software and cut-and-paste revisioning, we march right past the best of what writing by hand has to offer.

My personal penmanship rivals that of any physician's prescription pad, so writing to you in longhand is probably not a practical option at this point. Someday I'll prove it by penning a handwritten post. All Hallow's Eve might be a good time.

Quote Of The Moment
Everyone wants to understand painting. Why don't they try to understand the song of the birds? Why do they love a night, a flower, everything which surrounds man, without attempting to understand them? Whereas where painting is concerned, they want to understand.
--Pablo Picasso
