The First Day

of the year, and the first day of the rest of my life I suppose.

Had this thought in my head, and now it is gone. I've forgotten what it was, and I know it was a good topic for a rant on this here blogging site of mine.

I don't think I like the word blog to describe what I do here. I'd rather think I spread the gospel according to Jai. Lead by example and the consequences by damned.

Why is that writing, on a piece of paper, is nearly a lost art. I've decided to revive it. I like this medium... It's a pretty cool way to get instant gratification and I am always for instant gratification. Creating paper letters and cards and envelopes slows me down. Takes me to a different place of expression. I like that.

I think that everyone who posts to the web should send one paper letter a month for the next year. Maybe postal rates would go down... Besides, it's rather nice to hold something other than a mouse when reading.
