A New Year's Blast From the Past (Wednesday, January 1, 2003)
To celebrate 2003, I'm posting something I wrote on this day three years ago, when we were all looking around and realizing that Y2K hadn't melted everything down after all.

If you think anything I write here represents the opinions of anybody but myself, you need more help than I can give you. The opinions are all mine, folks. Nobody else's.
If that's too hard to understand... well, I'm sorry. There's only so much I can do. I'm not a therapist, and I'm not a miracle worker. I wish I could help you work through your delusional belief that I'm speaking for anyone else but myself. Honestly, I do. But in the end, that's a monkey you'll have to get off your back on your own. Sorry.
