A Touch Of The Numinous?

Do you ever get the feeling the fates are conspiring against you? Admittedly, for some fortunate creatures such as myself it's not too major a problem; but ... it's sometimes just the odd little niggle that starts the process of suspicion.

Today, this happened to my alter-ego Heterocon who, on several occasions attempted to access his blog only to find it being either "upgraded" or "updated"; unfortunately the distress was so great that even now he's afraid to carry out a further check on the current status! How fortunate were the earlier generations who never had to face such trauma.

So deep was the distress caused by these instances that, even now, he feels unable to share with me the profundity of the text he intended to inscribe upon that sacred space. This truly is a case of the "mysterium tremendum et fascinans", the numinous quality possessed by web-servers; one can only bow down in the presence of such transcendental forces.

Perhaps my dear Heterocon will soon be revitalized and enabled, either in person or through Sinna Luvva's humble service as his amanuensis, to scribe once more his "Broad Thoughts"upon the space of msn!
