What everything looks like
It is said that when all you have is a hammer everything looks like a nail.
I'd like to take that one step farther.
When one wants to treat everything like a nail, one surrounds oneself with a lot of hammers.
I'd like to take that one step farther as well.
One can tell a lot about a person by the kinds of tools they surround themselves with. For instance my supply drawer at the library is full of pliers. I think I have seven or eight different pliers in there.
I like to pry things apart.
I suppose it could mean I like to hold things tightly together as well.
Of course sometimes none of that really works out, in which case I'm fine just whacking it all into shape.
Anyone got a hammer?

Post a Comment
If you were wondering, yes, you should comment. Not only does it remind me that I must write in intelligible English because someone is actually reading what I write, but it is also a pleasure for me since I am interested in anything you have to say.
I respond to pretty much every comment. It's like a free personalized blog post!
One last detail: If you are commenting on a post more than two weeks old I have to go in and approve it. It's sort of a spam protection device. Also, rarely, a comment will go to spam on its own. Give either of those a day or two and your comment will show up on the blog.
