My World and Welcome to it.

Pithograms, or reasonably accurate facsimiles thereof, are "recorded meaningful messages" addressed to anyone who would read them. A Very Full Circle is chock-full of Pithograms (03-08-04 to 11-08-04) and other formal expressions (E-mails 7-16-03 to 11-08-04; Saint Paul Pioneer Press Community Columns 2000; SelfPubPress website 2004). All are designed to enlighten, provoke, engage, enrage, irritate, amuse, bemuse, defuse, or simply confuse those who read them. They represent a personal "stream of consciousness" extending over the stated time periods. The contents show where I stand on matters. It may tell you far more about me than most of you will ever wish or need to know.

The highly-opinionated, overly sensitive, dedicatedly-hypercritical, holier-than-thou reader should proceed no further. Such person is bound to be grossly offended by something he or she will encounter.

On the other hand, those who enjoy looking for grammatical errors or misspellings should have a field day.

Forewarned and encouraged thusly, the reader may make decisions as to whether he or she has better things to do.

*"A Very Full Circle" refers to my complete excursion into writing- beginning to end (1998-2004). Major works are listed.
