Congratulations, standing ovations, bouquets, and such are in order... take a bow, accept flowers, crack open the champagne...

This post is a break from the essay test drive mode I've followed up to now. A Heiligen Testament, theses nailed to the "cathedral" door? Or just a temporary departure, an aberration? I know less than even the unwariest reader. It is, however, a return and a new direction - to wit the change of name. I was never happy with "Mountainair Meanderings" or "Mountain Flâneuse." "flâneuse contrariante" may suit. If it doesn't, I'll just change the blog name until it does suit.

Anyway, as I said, congratulations, standing ovations, bouquets, and such are in order...

Say wha? Well, I have finally arrived as a blogger, even if the authenticating source (hereafter referred to as "they" with obligatory nod to pomo irony) swims in the local twitdom pool. Local arts council PTB are taking umbrage at blog - not Mountainair Arts one but at this one, formerly the other Mountainair blog, which said unidentified "they" claim confuses "people" (more indefinite pronoun abuse) into thinking it is the "official" arts council voice. Apparently, all art aficionados are equal but some are more equal than others...
