Word Verification...Accessibility...

Spamming necessitates the temporary use of "captchas," which are more commonly known as "word verification." The childhood act of spamming leads me to take this action temporarily.

I am well aware, and saddened by the fact, that while captchas filter out--thwart--spammers, they also make the act of making comments impossible for individuals who use screen readers.

Be assured, I am working to rectify that situation.

Zoomer Chronicles: Driver's Training

     With no driver's training, Zoomer was entrusted to my care.  Our partnership arranged.  I expressed need.  Zoomer was assembled
     Some intersections are for daredevils.  Others are not traveled by chickens.
     Chickens never open their doors.  Chickens dare not strap themselves into Zoomer's comrades.
      Peacocks strut their stuff on sidewalks.  Rush hours pose no fear.  Peacocks fly through as the colors green, yellow, and red flash by the whites of her eyes.
      Peacock the Primadonna--my alter ego--was poised to prevail.  Joy the Joystick blew her top.  Though willing to be accelerated, she has her limits.  1...2...3...4....Slow as a tortoise.  Fast as a hare.
     The peacock ever so elegantly presses the envelope.  Joy the Joystick would not be jilted.  Peacock the Primadonna was pushed into action--into submissive service to Joy.  Peacock the Primadonna acted. With grace, she pranced onto the curb cut.  Then, with the flow of her feathers, she repositioned Joy's top.
      Will Peacock the Primadonna and Joy the Joystick join in an adventurous partnership?  Will Zoomer zap the two with a spirit of cooperation?
      Only time will tell.
