Ralph Daniel Hedstrom on the Occasion of his Birthday

Fresh Spangled Speck
In the center of it all is a little speck. That spec is me, the center is relevant to my particular particle. To others, I am merely a part of the mesmerizing specks that whirl in the background of their own center. Part of a whole, lost in other parts of [...]

Ok. It’s way too late at night for me to be doing this, but I just signed in to this infernal blogginating machine and thought I should post a little quick something. So, here it is.
