Introduction | In 2004 I came up with the idea of creating a weblog to share my thoughts, experiences, etc. I hoped to shield my identity, so I chose the pen name James Anonymous. (I did not then realize there are no such secrets on the Internet.) Soon the realization took hold, so instead of criticisms of the situations I found myself in, I starting relating stories--true tales of my (or others') experiences. Along with my thoughts and observations, this became the stuff of www.jamesanonymous.com (JA for short). Then its hosting site hit a rough patch, and it was no longer free. I had been a paid subscriber, but I had another blog then (broodcoffeetalk.wordpress.com) and had let it lapse. I didn't get the email notification that I had to upgrade or lose JA. I accepted the option to download its content so that I might keep it intact. I decided to resurrect it on Blogger, a site I'd heard good things about. After many hours of work, here you go--a new location for JA, with the same entries; and new ones on the way. "Stay close," I suggested at JA’s debut in 2004. Now, years later, I urge you do the same. Thanks for visiting. |

The wicked backspin caught you off guard. How will you play it off without losing your footing?
Well, I know this question can't be directed at me, because I am RARELY caught off guard. ;)
