Title Tags and Names
When I had many of my writings in two non-AOL
places, the name for my autobiographical work
(my current "daily" diary/journal musings) in one
place was Brian's Brain, and in the other place:
Edges of Knowledge. I do have a dozen or
more journals which have never been published
although I have published excerpts online such
as my "At First to Poets" poem which is in my
Donald Duck Journal because that is where I
originally wrote it.
-
In one of those places I also had pages devoted
to my current heuristic number theory meanders.
Number Theory Investigations was its title. I had
in the 1990's penned a work entitled Meanderings
of an Amateur Mathematician which I then took
to a store where I was able to make 10 copies and
get them bound in plastic ring binders. There are
several heuristic mathematical papers I've written
which deal with problems not related to Number
Theory. Most of those were in my first journal in
AOL space, but IE messaged a concern about the
publisher, and I finally decided to delete that AOL
journal.
-
Speaking of IE, the reason I am no longer at the
places where I had had 6 years worth of efforts
online is because IE indicated suchdispleasure
with them it literally forced me out. I tried two
other places, one of which I had been briefly at
several years before, but internal difficulties at
those places necessitated I leave them. Why
am I back here in AOL journal space? One day
an AOL representative talked me into trying it
again, and so far her thumbs-up attitude has
proven to be warranted. Although I am doing
this page in the "Text" mode, I normally prefer
doing my own simple "HTML". As you can see,
the lines here are not single-spaced. With the
help given at on online site I do not recall the
URL for/ I was able to learn how to get single-
spaced lines in the "HTML" mode. So while it may
not be best to be here, I am content.

If you have perused my weblog you already know
what is here, but some of my major projects here
I want to write about again. This is centrally a
poem journal which so far has only poems written
by me. There is a natural number summation
sequence entry. There are weather entries. I
have written about certain other poets. Links to
pages of interest can be found here. Here and
there I have written about my personal calendar.
I did place my "Notes to Nowhere" pages here as
they originally were composed in a 123 Publish
space. Being somewhat an eclectic, I can never
be sure what I might write. Back to the poems:
in and after 1976 I wrote a 366-sonnet work for
which I used that national bicentennial year for
that work's title. In this journal is a 352-sonnet
2006 version of it. As a writer, I have long been
an outsider, but late in 1972 when I was yet in
the academic sphere my first book, a book which
had one letter in it but was otherwise all poems,
was published. The 2007 version of that book is
in this journal. Most of my working years I was a
night auditor in the hospitality industry, a time
during which I became more an outsider. I began
my own "company" and for a while used various
pen names. Such was the case in 1980 when one
of the books I published in the cassette medium,
a book of poems in which each poem evidences a
different posture, made its Thinking Lizard way into
the world and into the Library of Congress. In this
journal there is a 2007 version of that collection of
postures. I do have ongoing here a "This Day's
Poem" series, and yesterday I began placing a work
of poem sets online here. Both of these ventures
are unclosed in that neither is already a completed
work. There are other complete books of poems I
intend to place here, but I do know when any one
of them will show.
