Interregnum


I acknowledge that my blog postings have been sparse these past couple of months. The Muse has not been active, as more pressing matters have claimed her attention. I have taken the expedient course of inserting some links to other sites as they turn up in my surfing, but I find that easy substitute to be far from satisfactory.


An old and dear friend of mine passed away last week, and I am to deliver the eulogy at his memorial service in two days' time. It is tough to see one’s contemporaries ‘go over the mountain’ as the Chinese expression has it. But of course for the surviving family members it is a whole lot tougher.


Yesterday it hailed. But it was sunny today.
