Belated Birthday Wishes

I have just been sitting here thinking about Tim Berners Lee and the webs 25th birthday; without it, we wouldn't all be connected, I wouldn't be banging away at a keyboard in an effort to lure you over to drop in and chit chat below, I wouldn't know about Faux Fuchsia's phantasmagorical sequinned wardrobe, how to make that mock tuna sandwich, Janet's pristine minimalism, the preternatural cold of Canadian winters, Tamera's incredible hostessing and the price of fish in Peru, Iraq, India, Russia, Bejing and more - I've seen you all on my stats map and can't believe that you are reading from all the way over there.
I think Sting said it best: Every little thing she does is magic, everything she does just turns me on, even though my life before was tragic, now I know my love for her goes on."
And you thought I was a real person!
I think the web is a she don't you? Mercurial, a communicator, a bit stroppy at times, oh yes, not only a she but a Gemini too.
So here's to the world wide web, and all of us who would have remained strangers, disconnected from the magical mosaic of each other's every day lives. We may be bonded by minutae but this is a genuine community. Cheers everyone!
