Snickerdoodles: Identity crisis. Take 2
Well, today my id met my ego in a back alley and gave him a good thrashing. My super-ego came flying in to the rescue and now I have decided that I am no longer Lingamish or lingalinga but simply David Ker.
Actually, enough of you, my dear cyber-friends, griped about my new handle and I’ve found other ways of reconciling my multiple personality disorder.
So… the good news is that you can just go back to calling me Lingamish again. Lingalinga will be reserved for the media manic madness me and I’ll be signing my comments as simply David Ker.
My new header reflects the current attempt to defrag my cyber-Identity.
In other news, I’ve discovered that several of my blog friends no longer believe in Santa Claus. I’m quite disturbed by this but the rant needs more time to simmer before I’m ready to serve the pasta. This includes Doug, Jim, Chris, Iyov and John. In other news Esteban bleched his blog. And JK has been blown away in a Gayle. Ben did some navel-gazing (Scary stuff in there).
Sorry, no time for blogging today. Real life was far too fun.
And a quick agape note to all the people posting great stuff on 1 Cor 13:4 and makrothumeo: Suzanne, Rich, Peter and Mike (and Kurk’s great transmogrification of 1 Cor 13). My Cyber-Psalm this week was inspired by y’all.
I’m sure we can agree you’re quite disturbed. Whether my lack of belief in he whom my dyslexic friends call Satan Claus is related to this is a whole other question.
I still might continue referring to you as Lingamish…just because. I must confess also that I’m a Santa agnostic…we’ll see if you can convince me!
Anyway, I’ve bot a bit more on the attributive position in Ephesians coming tonight, though it doesn’t really have to do with adjectives.
My 4 year old Anna loves Santa Claus. It’s April, but she had me read through “Twas the night before Christmas, and all through the house,” in three different versions (i.e., different illustrations), just last night.
Believe me, whenever I am with her, I believe in Santa Claus.
John, before I took in your parenthetical explanation, I was thinking that it made sense that your four year old would certainly want to hear and compare different versions of The Night Before Christmas. It made me wonder if she’d prefer literary or dynamic equivalent
Come on, Doug. I know what you meant to write was whole nother.
I think many of us have a hard enough time defragging our offline identities, let alone our online ones!
Glad to hear you’re having a good day,

Careful now. Gale in the bible is λαῖλαψ or something like that. And there’s David; and the Kerethites, the Keramim, and one Kerioth Hezron, not to mention that fellow Keran.
And don’t forget Keren-happuch, “horn of antimony”.
