I keep hearing these voices telling me I need to start turning. I get e-mail messages telling me I need the Dark Side. Not to mention all the instant messages that tell me round is good...that trees are round...and that I cannot escape. Not to mention the turning magazines that have started to appear in the mail.

Darth Scroller is trying to seduce me to the Dark Side!!!

If you wish to stop over tonight or over the weekend I plan work on a few pens.

Trees are round.... The Earth is round..... Round keeps you from flying off into space.

Careful Bas, hearing voices just might get you a padded room at Dorothea Dix Hosp.

No gloats, stealth or otherwise. Just preparing you in case you read a report in the local paper of a deranged dude being arrested after hacking away at someone's deck posts with an axe, yelling "They told it me it must be made round!"

Normal for Cary! Wouldn't even make the papers, much less the news!

I thought the Zoning Board in Cary REQUIRED porch posts to be round! Square posts aren't upscale enough.....

I most certainly did not! I called myself "deranged", not "strange". Weird - maybe. Strange - no.
