Message in a Bottle: Mermaids in the Basement



So another blog, this time mine, even with so many others out there, floating on the sea of the Internet, as if millions and millions of messages in millions of bottles are waiting to be seen, but by whom and when?

Not one to be deterred, no matter how unlikely the possibilities, I intend to be a follower of the path that the poet Emily Dickinson once described:

I started Early -- Took my Dog --
And visited the Sea --
The Mermaids in the Basement
Came out to look at me --

So I send out my messages in a bottle, hoping those on shore will watch and read these messages as they travel along the river of time.
