Why

Because . . .

The reason why is because I spend more time finding and fixing photos than I do writing my blogs.  I know:  the graphics give the thing life and color.  But you have to admit, the number of pictures I'll cram into a small post is . . . well, excessive to say the least. 

So:  I'm swearing off photos.  At least for awhile.  And not all photos, either.  I may still dig one or two up from time to time, but I won't be doing an overly-illustrated blog as I have in the past.

Funny:  I assume the photos have made a difference in your enjoyment.  But nobody's ever said, 'Wow, that was a great photo!  Where'd you find that?' 

The other thing is:  If you haven't noticed, I've dropped way off. Blogging, that is.  I seem to be going through some kind of chemical realignment in my body right now and I just don't have that much stuff bubbling up in me.  I'm also not traveling like I was earlier this year -- and not drinking like I was either.  The combination put me in position to have lots of adventures to report.  At the moment, I'm afraid I'm boring. 

So, my apologies to all.  Not really.  Hell!  It's MY blog, isn't it?

And I promise to eventually fix the type on the 'How to Write Good' piece so you can actually read it.  I'd do it right now but I can't seem to find the motivation.  Later.
