	Today's picture comes courtesy of danlmarmot, who took it while we were having lunch with him and cpratt during their recent visit to Tucson for Fiesta de los Osos. I'm jealous, Dan! Skylar wrote this without any prompting. For some reason, "N" is the letter she is most likely to leave out of the alphabet. The transposition of the "Z" is standard in her demographic.

You know, Dan, I wouldn't mind having bigger versions of the shots in my office or the other two from Tohono Chul. I'm discovering that the more pixels at my disposal, the more things I can do with parts of pictures.

ABOUT DE FILE

You're looking at content from my Live Journal, which I have been keeping since 2003. I consider it a personal blog, though it lacks stream-of-consciousness revelations that typify that genre.

That said, if you manage to discern the confessional mode within entries that are superficially tight-lipped, I will reward you handsomely. Or at least pretend to do so.

In addition to reflections, however mediated, on my daily activities, De File features periodic excavations of material from my "files," a revelation sure to disturb anyone who has seen my garage. It's an experiment in integrating past and present, perhaps with a little redemption along the way.

Politics is always on my mind, but rarely explicit here. I’m working on a theory about what personal writing like this does to literary identification and why some people resist its pull so powerfully. But my goal is to make that theory dissolve in my practice, a density in liquid.

You'll note that I have links to blogs not on LiveJournal directly above, as well as assorted websites of note. The blogs I read regularly on LiveJournal itself fall under "FRIENDS" at the top, for those of you unfamiliar with LJ’s workings.

You can write me. I'm "cbertsch" before the circle-a and "comcast.net" after it.
