The clock at the library in downtown Salem, Virginia evinces a temporal anomaly.  It stands between the big library building and a Little Free Library installation along the sidewalk.  You’ll have noted the macrocosm/microcosm at play, as we did.  There is a vacuum between macrocosm and microcosm, “a void of apparent godlessness” (Franklyn Wepner). You’ll recall Isaac Newton and René Descartes’ watchmaker analogy that argued for the existence of an intelligent designer of a mechanical universe.  In a void of such a watchmaker … well, QED.

Twenty years ago, plus? My Livejournal was created over two decades ago. My original online journal actually started a bit before that, but prior to this account I was wrangling with doing it manually, and at the time it was a huge pain in the butt. I still crosspost stuff there as a backup, and to interact with the few original gang that I haven’t seen transition to other social media.
