You must live the life of a lone eagle in order to be Great. There is no
other way!
Opinion stated as fact ... nothing new there.. *Don't sing it ...


prove that you are this mythological great lone eagle. *Pull the
computer plug, abandon the internet, sever your cyber-umbilical chord.
and return to your books and cats. *If you can't do that then is no
longer any need for you to continue to insult the readers intelligence
by pretending that you can. *Insistence without action only serves to
undermine your credibility. *You will only convince the readership of
your sincerity when you follow through. *Until then, you can stop
blowing sunshine up our collective asses.

This lone eagle of which I speak must also reside on a mountain top isolated
from all the rest of the world. The lone eagle does only one thing ... it
stares into the ether. If you would be Great, that is what you must do.


You have a computer and internet connection that works up there?
Irrelevant diversion duly noted. You, your computer and your internet
connection are inseparable. Until you become detached ,you are not a
lone eagle ... not even a traditional hermit in accordance with a
purist's strict definition. No matter what kind of spin you vainly
attempt to put on all this, the reality of the situation is not
altered. You live a semi-hermetic lifestyle regardless of the label
you put on it. To become are lone eagle of a hermit the computer must
go. So which one are you will to give up ... the label or the
computer? The conundrum continues.

Ed Dolan the Great - Minnesota
aka
Saint Edward the Great - Order of the Perpetual Sorrows - Minnesota
