Greetings, readers! I hope you are well.

I recently discovered a section of the internet referred to as “stock photos.” For those of you who are not aware of what such a thing is, a stock photo is a picture or graphic that others then use in websites, presentations, or other forms of media.

Some of the photos were unintentionally funny. Others were disturbing.

As an example of the unintentionally amusing: Readers, why do stock photo-makers ever decide to use road-signs? They seem to misunderstand the concept. When two concepts are on road-signs facing opposite directions, or even merely different directions, the underlying meaning is that the ideas are different.

For the disturbing: Why are there so many stock images of men with lightbulbs for heads? It is disturbing. Possibly even creepy.

What do you think, readers? Why do artists do this to us?

Greetings, readers!

I read something rather amusing today. It was a defense of train robberies. I sincerely hope it was satire.

You should read it.

Greetings, readers. I bid you a joyous Wednesday.

It has come to my attention that waiting is something that many have trouble with. The term “waiting” can be applied both long-term and short-term.

In the long term, it can cause stress-symptoms to appear as it does, in fact, induce a fair amount of stress to wait for long periods of time. This is especially true if one knows that one is waiting for something, but might not be as certain about how that which one is waiting for will turn out.

To what were you referring?

Oh. I suppose that it might, possibly, not be as clear as I might hope. But it still mostly conveys the sentiment I am trying to show. That is, long-term waits can be stressful.

Short-term waiting can also be a bit stressful, but the level of stress between different lengths of time varies. Waiting two minutes to leave to go to the grocery store, for example, might not be as stressful as the three-and-a-half month long wait before starting a new phase of life.

In other words, I just spent approximately 200 words to indicate that waiting for the unknown might be stressful. I hope you appreciate my fluffing this post out to be approximately ten times as long as it could, possibly, have been.

Greetings, Readers!

Today’s post is short. I am filling in for the Webmaster while she is busy today, but I do not want to write a lengthy post.

That is actually just as well, however, because I found an interesting article about myths concerning women from the Victorian Era.

I encourage you to read it.
