Once again nearly a year has elapsed since my last post here--hardly a journal frequency of posts.  Yet I came to Blogspot again in order to find a familiar interface.  Silly me.  Little did I expect to find that Google has taken over Blogspot and Blogger along with an alarming amount of internet things and I now need to learn yet another set of rules that make little sense or have little appeal to me.  I had sought to escape the byzantine frustrations of trying to use Facebook.  Which I will use more in future I don't know, but I suppose I have little right to complain about either since they're free.
