where to start- that's always a question.  right where you are, I suppose.  This is the first instance of what I hope will be many: things doing things, things I like, things I despise, all kinds of things, all doing their thing, here - a nexus of ideas, a mesh: both the holes in a net, and the threading between them- interconnected by my interest- both an encompassing center and an dusting of discrete locations.  thanks for stopping by.
