This is NOT a Test.

...although it probably should be. This is NOT the revolution. Yet. This IS a place for me to post the random craziness that wanders through my life from time to time. Come along, won't you..?

If you want to know the derivation of the title "First Firefly", it comes from an 18th century Japanese poet, Issa. One of my cherished childhood memories is soft summer evenings when scores of fireflies would glisten across the backyard of my family home. There are no fireflies (or lightning bugs or Pyractomena angulata if you're a science snob) in Los Angeles, which is a definite drawback to the city of angels...

The first firefly,
But he got away and I-
Air in my fingers...
