A Lot of Blogs

Started blogging in the last month. Have a lot of blogs. Wonder how long I can keep all these blogs going.

Have blogs by subject, rather than one massive blog. Seems to make more sense. While I am interested in all these things, most people are probably not.

Most people are probably not interested in what I have to write about anything. Do not know who might be interested in what I have to write about anything. That is not the point of writing.

The point of writing is that I have a lot more thoughts than people willing to listen to them. This way, I can write them down, and I do not have to worry about who is interested in them. I can write them whether anybody listens or not. The point of writing is freedom.

I imagine I can keep the writing going, since I have been writing in journals for over thirty years. Do not know which subjects will survive, but the subjects help me to organize my thoughts and hopefully find them.

The 98 - 2 Rule: Practice the Skills You Use 98% of the Time and Do Not Worry About the Rest

Thought up the 98-2 Rule today.

Blogged about it on Partnership Dancing.

Marty

Saw Marty today with my mom.

Seen it before.

Still as great a movie as ever.

If you have not seen Marty, go rent it. The movie deservedly won the Oscar for best film. A low budget, small, character film about a 34 year-old Italian butcher, living with his mother in New York.

Not a comedy, but funny all the same. One of my favorite films of all time.

Reminds me of my dad. First saw it with both my parents. Makes me miss my dad.
