But enough about me

...no, I mean it. Seriously. The way I write you'd think I actually know what I'm talking about.

More precisely, I guess, I sometimes tend to write in a tone that is far more authoritative than my actual knowledge can support.

Well, WTF... I was a TV reporter for 25 years. I made a career out of making ignorance sound authoritative.

I need to take up stamp collecting or something.

If we thought you knew what you were talking about, we wouldn't leave comments making it seem like we know what we're talking about.

Carry on.

no matter what you write, nor the tone, the fact that it's typed gives us a cultural cue that it's important because it's written in typed letters. the only danger to that is not to the reader, but to yourself -- that we take ourselves too seriously.

I actually think that collecting stamps instead of continuing to concentrate primarily on one's belly-button for the rest of one's life sounds like a great idea.

Which reminds me: I read in an old Harper's that this is the country where no childhood gets left behind..
