Hello… What’s This?
This is where I ask you to click the “subscribe” button.
And where you ask “why should I do that?”
The answer to that question is: Because I’m an incredibly handsome, smart, witty and insightful writer with a diverse array of eclectic interests. I am also very modest. And not the least bit sarcastic.
Translation: Some people think I have interesting things to say on a variety of topics, from “what is the Internet doing to our brains” to esoteric subjects like the history of technology and future possibilities like fusion energy and gravity control. I’ve written a couple of books on those last few topics.
This video illustrates how it all ads up for me (with apologies to Stanley Kubrick):
“Incorrigible” Says It All
Honestly I’m still working with the ‘branding’ (I hate that term) for this website / publication / newsletter (just don’t call it a ‘Substack’!). I adopted the mantle of ‘incorrigible’ after my divorce in 2019. She moved out on a Saturday, I moved a Mustang convertible into the garage on Sunday. Life is better with the top down. Simply stated, the term suits me.
Seriously?
I have the nerve to think that I have a unique perspective: ideas, viewpoints, weird bits of accumulated knowledge, and just the right amount of dark, sardonic wit. I have kept it all mostly to myself for the better part of seven-plus decades. But at the start of 2025 I discovered that this platform is very suitable for organizing my hornets nest of thoughts and presenting them when they have formed coherent sentences and paragraphs.
If you do subscribe, I will not litter your inbox. I figure I’m doing really well if I can send one post via email each week, though I will like “Post” other things directly to the website in between.
I’ll Spare You The Boilerplate
Substack inserted a bunch of standard verbiage here. I just deleted it.
