You really have to be enthusiastic about what you're doing in order to produce a thousand words a day.

I can tell you this, I am not very enthused by what's been going on lately.

Posts like this are just filler material in order to keep the blog going.

You have to cast about for something to get excited about.

Well, in that case, there's always Football!

Are you ready?

I wonder what kind of people would read a blog like this.  The "mind" class or the "hand" class.  Is there enough intellectual heft to make it to the mind class, or it is definitely stuck in the hand class?  I know one thing:  to produce enough stuff for this blog takes up plenty of mental energy.  Plenty of my mental energy that is.

I've thought about that.  If you were to produce a thousand words a day, somebody could read that in a few minutes.  Then what?  There's nothing else to hold anyone here.  But to produce that takes a lot more energy than to read it.  And time.

This isn't an easy enterprise.  Not a complaint, just an observation.
