Venerable Terpsichore Plantain either you type extremely fast, or you already had that one stored up somewhere. 041227 ... misanthropic me I think I like this... andru. I will ponder further. 041227 ... jane welcome_to_blather 041229 ... monee yeah. rock on. 041229 ... Piso Mojado how do you blathe? are these thoughts that have been roaming around in your mind? conversations that you've had? things you've written previously? or are they fresh and new, created for_blather's_eyes_only ? 050504 ... andru235 50% verbalizations about things i have long considered 30% whimsical, for better or worse 10% recent personal event-related 5% are conversive with other blathers 5% (or less?) are quotations, such as the_dog_and_the_wolf (percentage breakdown approximated) but! nearly all of my blathes are formulated in the blather box. while i have done much writing about many of these topics elsewhere in my life, i try to always write it anew, because: a)sometimes i feel i have really excellently conveyed my thoughts b) more often that (a) i feel i have only meagerly conveyed my thoughts, and c) often enough i'm like, why did i even post/write/blathe/journal this? no one could possibly make sense of it! too many gaps! poor choice of words! lack of effective prefacing! a few are contained elsewhere in my writings; it_all_exists is selection from a 30 page episode i wrote several years ago. the brief blathe is surely the better of the two. other things, like the_dark_cave, i have written about before although i didn't even look at the old writings when formulating the blather version because by writing anew, one has new insights into an idea. and my interminant 'atoms-have-feelings' posts are uniquely phrased here, but is nothing new to my writing. the clever can find my anonymous contributions of 'atomic-empathy' elsewhere in the world, but nowhere glamorous (several minneapolis area bridges, many years ago, for instance). and while i always cite direct quotations - with 'by ?' if unknown to me - i really feel that copyrighting has started to become excessive. i felt it for years, and knew it when p.hilton patented "that's hot". hot, that is not! you, the reader, and i had both used that phrase long before we even knew who you were, miss p.h. the imbalanced! that was a rare slander; sorry. i don't have anything against her except this patenting b.s.. what i am saying is, though many of my phrasings are original to here, i don't consider them 'mine'. a while back i saw a poster of birds flying, with the phrase "they can because they think they can" underneath, attributed to virgil. virgil didn't speak english! and virgil wasn't the first person to verbally observe the power of will. so what, really, did the addition of 'virgil' do, other than add pretence? (if i recall correctly the literal translation of the virgil phrase is: "as they thought so they will be" [and looks suspiciously similar to erasmus' cogito ergo sum"] so the quote isn't even direct) if i 'coined a phrase' that offered society new insight into an idea - which i doubt will happen, as i'm no paragon of concision - but if i did, should i get credit for it? for doesn't the idea belong to a greater existence than myself, given that i was lead to it by 'life'? and surely there are others before me who have had the same idea but expressed it differently or not at all. so what, other than vanity, is my motivation to take credit? if it is a good idea, it shouldn't matter if it is attributed to -Yellow Banana, 1831. and if my ego is hardy, i won't care either. as for those who would exploit the anonymous arts of others to further themselves, i have usually observed that later, the universe catches up with them. ;) a good portion of my blathings are, of course, unique to blather, for-blathing-eyes-only, as you say. only seems fair considering that is what most of you do also. and when i come to blather, i have no idea what i will blathe about. if i have an agenda, my 'name' alone betrays it! but i, unstable as i am, operate sans-strategy. 050505 ...
