The ocean, again and again

 






It is time to look at pictures of the ocean.



"But I don't wanna look at pictures of the ocean!"


Yes, sorry, I understand, but I live on the Cote d'azur. You get pictures of water, specifically of the glorious Mediterranean Sea. When I lived in Saint Minneapolis it was detailed pictures of the local hidden falls creek and the Mississippi River.

It's just how it goes.


Clerkmanifesto without pictures of water:  

Twenty million readers, book deals, movie rights, and enough money to buy bottles of champagne without having an existential budget crisis.


Clerkmanifesto with pictures of water: 

You and seven other readers, one of whom is possibly having a mental breakdown. A life's work as its own reward.


But we all have our muses.

I have chosen to follow mine.

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.
