Moby Dick has some seriously good kababs. Or at least it used to, the one over by the canal, that is.

thank you for that, though i’m appalled that i apparently require kid-glove-handling from reasonable people. still, very kind of you.

just an anonymous user trying to give constructive criticism.

and thank you for that, as well. whenever i blog, i don’t select “save” with a flourish, crowing to myself about how i just wrote the best post EVER. i know that only practice and feedback improve me.

we have similar “taste”; i came thisclose to NOT posting this essay, because i actually thought it was terrible. it was so difficult to articulate exactly what i was experiencing emotionally; i tried and nearly gave up. when it was done and i read it, i was torn, then i got over myself and realized that despite whatever i think of it (suckage maximus), it might do some good, so why not put it out there?

i’m glad i did. it may have been wordy, but it did more than i imagined it might accomplish AND it was like dipping my toe in this big sepia pool after weeks of no swimming. the water isn’t as cold as i feared and that makes me want to dive right in…

Do you think what I had to say in #178 is oppositional or complimentary to what you said?

You? Me? Its like we’re one or something :-) Yes, I think we’re on the same page, our emphases slightly different. Actually my scribble can be read as a defense of your well-formulated comment. Identity is complicated, and there will likely never be an absolute truth.
