Spinning Gold into Straw
Unless alchemy has improved since last I read about it, no one has yet figured out how to turn digital currency into food and water. Just sayin' . . .

About Me
- Name: Ingrid
- Location: United States
Relentless chocoholic. 70% cocoa, fair trade, and organic, please! When left alone in the house, Ingrid will bake. I love wildflowers (including dandelions), sunsets, and playing with fire. I get lost for hours in puzzles and magnetic poetry, take Scrabble way too seriously, and wield a crochet hook and a power saw with equal comfort. - - - - - - - - - - - Great quotation which I found, strangely enough, printed on the back of a Swedish bus ticket: "Born Originals, how comes it to pass that we die Copies?" - Edward Young

What's got your mind spinning, you are blogging more on a greater range of topics?
Same ol' . . . I don't think it's so much my mind spinning more as finding it harder not to run my mouth. And I have a thesis to procrastinate.
Peak oil and the global food crisis have been the particular impetus (impetuses? impeti?) for my latest spate of posts. It feels to me like monomania with a range of angles on the topic to try to get my modestly numbered readership, whoever they are, to wake up and pay attention and maybe, just maybe, do something about it.
Peace.
