Since it took you weeks to do so you can understand the inability to respond in kind, especially since I did my father’s day response several posts ago. Also there is a frustration of time frames where by the time you mull over a response that’s more than quick one liner, it’s a blog or two to late. I did like and related to the part about the psychological profiles. Another aspect is that your blog, much to its credit, focuses on real places and real people. That requires real responses. I mean, how do you respond to a Morris Timbes, Curtis Willard, Gretchen Woods or the Centers of Universes inhabited by the host of other interesting people you have introduced us to. One could dismiss and dispatch them with banalities or clever one-liners or go that place in our own life and experiences that does justice to their being. That takes a little time, a little thought, and large love of things real.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
