A poem which appeals to me: IF by Rudyard Kipling.
A masterly piece of writing: the seven ages of man by William Shakespeare.
This is for my use but if it's of interest to anyone else, well and good (I hope). I'm moving bookmarks and other links here and some of them may be useful to others. It's an ongoing experiment and my worker personality only gets to have fun developing and redeveloping when my slave driver personality spares him from other tasks.
I'll be using the site for work notes, which may be of use to others once developed into something readable. I may also consolidate one blog into a compiled publication on this site.
