Electric has been out all day on the small island Gozo but that is not really a critical thing there. Time is different on small islands, I suspect the Great VaVaVoom would have agreed with that. No electric kinda screws up my porting a Mac app to Windows though ;-) Any way, sitting there on the curb with my 'winter sandals' on I was pondering the writing style of your weblog and also reflecting on how sometimes your posts seem like a twitter. Ain't joking. Don't do twitter myself but read about them. Two buses and one ferry later Cloe and I got to the big city (Valletta) and our other home/office and I read your post. That you were actually blogging under those conditions made me think that maybe you're due for a nice vacation in a remote corner of the planet, no offense meant with these words Doc. Gozo claims to be the home of Calypso who kept Odysseus captive for seven years. As of last week I passed Odysseus's seven year mark and might just stay here another seven or more as the pace here has done wonders for my blood pressure ;-) If you feel the need to escape to a 'mythical' timeless island for some unwinding let me know. Usually takes a non-islander a few weeks to even begin to unwind though. Oddly enough, I was waiting at a bus stop today so I could then catch a ferry to the other, bigger island.
