My inability to publish a post of late is due to my inability to switch out of verbose mode.

Most command-line scripts have a ‘-v’ directive which reveals all sorts of generally redundant information. I feel like I’ve flipped that bit on permanently and I am finding it contradicts both the times (in which sound bites rule) and the format of blogging – my favorite blogs are succinctly presented.

Some judicious editing will be required to shift a few of my drafts that have been blocking the flow like some fat kid stuck halfway down water-slide.

My first attempt to overcome the word glut was to send down more fat kids in the form of further meaty posts but they too are now stuck. Now, in a change of tact, I send down a runt in the futile hope its the fabled straw that put a camel in traction.

Fingers-crossed.

Stumble it!
