The blue roads of thinking

Random thoughts on the blue highways.
You never know what you will find on the blue highways. Particularly when the choice at an intersection is controlled by the roll of a die. About the only rule is that highway onramps don't count as an intersection. You don't even have to roll the die. If one road looks interesting, go for it.

About Me

My photo
J'Carlin
Silicon Valley, CA, United States
Don't look for me much on the big news sites, I skim through them, but rarely find much that is worth commenting on. As a young son once said "We don't watch TV news, dad won't let us watch violence programs." I still don't. Interests are religion, marketing theory (that is not an oxymoron,) Advertizing, digital photography, APOD, and historically, rocket science. e-mail: jcarlinbl@gmail.com The literary version is found at Thinking On the Blue Roads The raw data for which can be found on The Blue Roads of Thinking.
