March 31, 2011 Thursday

--I had an unexpected move from El Paso, Texas back to Reno, Nevada on the 15th of this month.  I just couldn't cope with the need to speak Spanish there.  I've been to El Paso many times over the past 10 years, but this time it became a necessity to speak Spanish--at my downtown residence, at my downtown Senior Center, where I ate, and generally, about town.  I encountered El Paso as a Mexican city!  And my Spanish is lousy, though I tried.

--I've been working on the item "The Demise of the Western World" under the Social Change topic.  So far, I've put together three themes within the scope of the item: A. Regional Dominate Nation; B. Outsourcing; C. Ecological Edicts' Compliance.  The item is complex, to be sure; but very important.  I think these themes cover the dynamics of the item; and as the item focuses upon a world-wide change (hopefully, for the better), I don't think I should look for further themes, though I'm certain they exist within its range.  Comprehendez?  Now, please explain what I've just written to me, the author!
