Chilled. In my ice-window car, warming at idle, Theresa on radio waves. Which is a bit rare itself, these latest six months -- I've tuned in maybe 5 minutes total since summer. And she's among my favorite, like-minded programmers!<BR/><BR/>I haven't the time. All I do from morning 'til night is read stuff, 'til my eyelids drop and I sleep.<BR/><BR/>In the car, in the chill, with the radio, no different: A short tract propped on the steering wheel -- I'm reading. <I>Michael Parenti</I>, "<B>Capitalism's Self-Inflicted Apocalypse</B>."<BR/><BR/>Multi-tasking my attention: 70% on the paper, 30% on the radio. Slow going, re-reading paragraphs after Theresa says something that spikes her 30-share up to an 80. Composure, re-focus, blur the radio, re-read -- plod plod plod. She does it again. Catch myself, concentrate, think of the writing.<BR/><BR/>All of a <I>sudden!</I>, OH MY GAWD! Theresa is reading my paper to me. Her voice speaking the <I>exact, same, identical WORD</I> I am reading. Word for word, clause for clause, like that silent inside-head voice when I read <I>audible out of the radio</I>! It took two sentences before I could figure out what was happening. Then I smiled and let her read all of it to me.<BR/><BR/>Like following the script while a play is on stage.<BR/><BR/>So it was. To share.<BR/><BR/>More coincidence than I've ever known. And I've known 10 times your share, regardless who 'you' are. Whatever that means.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
