every essay so far has been a gem. glad i found your sub thru the honest broker and subscribed. your notes have the amazing power to make me feel just a little bit more serene when i get to the end. i thought it was Hopkins voice doing the magic (magical of course), but it's actually your writing.

keep up the good work Dan.

.. this post at my site is about ‘blind luck’ .. in the sense of serendipity & happenstance

so perhaps it at least gives bears witness - even pause.. credence even .. that we’re out there..

I’ve been confronted too ! A hormone levelled pistol at a party & shotgun while restocking my bar in Calgary

I created the post so others could keep the tradition going here, via telling of the tales
