Middle Income Richard’s Third Millennium Almanack: Introduction

Typing

 

So, here’s “a blast from the past” if ever I wrote one.  At the turn of the century (yes, that is a true statement and the century we’ve all turned to is this one: the twenty-first) I conspired to concoct an almanac (now spelled, in honor of Benjamin Franklin, like he spelled his:  Poor Richard’s Almanack) to be immortalized forevermore as Middle Income Richard’s, in honor of my then-current economic status.  In more recent years, of course, economic statuses have gotten a hell of a lot poorer.  (Go talk to your president and other politically elected representatives.  It won’t help your economic status–or mine either–to talk to me.)

But never mind.  The reason you’re not yet even seeing this “almanack” (sometimes nicknamed, by moi by the way, as Mid Ink Rick) is because… whoa, it just ain’t ready.  Originally I got a couple of friends to post my work on their website, and that went really smoothly; but (and here’s a hard truth for yours troubly to swallow) what works on their kind of website does NOT work on my kind.  So, massive (and I do mean massive) edits, rewrites, and re-formattings MUST now be done before it’ll look anything close to how it looked then.

And so, what all this means is:  Hold on there!  Do NOT get your knickers in a twist.  Yours troubly is in fact performing all these massive edits, rewrites, and formattings-all-over-again for your viewing displeasure.  Y’all jus’ gotta wait a wahl!  But I’ll be sure to let you know in plenty of time before I croak that most all these almanacks will get posted here, somewhere, somehow, and I might even say when.  And there’s a lot of them.  And many are missing.  So, again, I don’t know what to tell ya ‘cept:  WAIT!

And thanks.  You’re lookin’ good while you wait!  I might even send my wait staff into the waiting room to take your lunch and beverage order.  Today we’re having Pee’s Cornbread, Possums on the Half Shell, and Humble Pie.  (Don’t ask.)  😉

Have a nice century!
