This is my latest dilemma. My one and only follower (a loyal follower, I might add) suggests that I advertise my blog on Facebook. I wonder! I wonder what desirable quality should I emphasize? Or, is there one that would make folks buy any arguments I may put forth or patronize an establishment or thought process that I may have. That, dear reader(s) is causing me great consternation. I am human, make mistakes, err in spelling and grammar and generally ramble. Are these all qualities that I should hang out there like dirty laundry?
I wonder if people come and then leave, what kind of message would that send? Knowing the strange and convoluted mind that occupies the large balding sphere atop my face, I may drawn any number of conclusions. Will that lead to acid reflux? I already experience that. Possibly make more powerful acid? Oh my – a picture of hole-ridden stomach is very unappetizing. I better skip that thought. Or, will it lead to a fall down that deep precipice of no return, where I languish for days on end wondering what is this blogging all about? And what good do inane blogs bring to the general populace?
Then again, as my faithful reader(s) states – blog and they shall come. Maybe there is fame and fortune in blogging. A large and faithful audience that clamors for more. Picture me, sitting at my laptop, at 1:36 a.m. plucking away at the keyboard dispensing pearls of wisdom, all glistening and strung in such dazzling fashion that the faithful will have but no choice but to log on at 5:38 a.m. and soak in what pops up as they seek and find the link from their favorites (I assume they have all added it to their favorites).
POP! What was that? Oh, just a bubble of reality bursting. I lunch hour is up and I better get going. But, I can’t do that without telling you all (including you, my one and only faithful follower) that the local team – playing their 163 game of season, did pull off a miracle the only way they know how! The Twins came back, time and again, from depths of despair to take one away from the Detroit Tigers. The thousands that attended and the more of us who followed the game on our televisions, radio sets and computers came away ecstatic, drained and thrilled that we could fight yet another day! Today, the Twins are in New York City playing their first game of the best of five series against the much-hated NY Yankees. On paper, the Twins appear to be a push-over. No one gave them a chance three weeks ago, let alone this past week. Today, they have made us proud. I hope they keep on winning like their predecessors did in 1987 and 1991. Go Twins!
