So, About That …

T. Nelson Taylor — Tue, 13 Feb 2024 16:20:53 +0000

So, where to begin … The sentence above is an intentional construction, begging two points. First, the escalating commonality of opening with “So”. Second, the use of ellipsis to indicate a declarative statement with dramatic tailing instead of a question. As a sufferer of mild dyslexia, I’ll start with the latter. My blog, my excuse!…… Continue reading So, About That …

Short answer: yes* I had one of those music business epiphanies the other day while surfing YouTube. Someone posted a full-production Metallica concert recently—a live show from earlier this year in Las Vegas. I skipped through it, reminiscing the late ‘80s headbanger scene.

I’m not much for commentary on typesetting because frankly, after you’ve completed a few dozen solar orbits, you’ll notice that the appearance of the written word is a matter of Fashion de Jour.
