If you came here first thing this fine Monday morning for the kind of prose that scintillates like a ballet dancer using her very finest pointe technique, the chances are good that you typed in the wrong url address, or were the victim of some kind of auto-correct mishap. But if you came here for the overdone metaphors, wending their way earthward like a hail storm of bowling balls, you have the right place, but are a tad early. A bit later today, there will be a very important announcement posted here, followed up by a post from me that promises to contain one or two overdone metaphors.
