That&#8217;s at least one per day for nearly a year.<\/p>\n<p>Why is that worthy of a bit of braggadocio? I guess it&#8217;s just because I feel like bragging about it.<\/p>\n<p>The blog once surpassed a year in the number of consecutive days in which a blog item had been posted. Then technical difficulties got in the way. I had to go a full day without posting a blog item while the hosting outfit I hired worked through the problem. They fixed it in short order and so I started a new streak.<\/p>\n<p>I hear occasionally from friends of mine who say they &#8220;marvel&#8221; at the volume of items I post. Well, that comes from friends. My adversaries don&#8217;t offer that kind of comment. That&#8217;s OK. I get it.<\/p>\n<p>I am blessed &#8212; or <em>cursed<\/em>, depending on how you might consider it &#8212; with an abundance of time. Retirement allows me to vent, to rant, to pontificate, to offer a perspective on this or that. And so &#8230; I do.<\/p>\n<p>I am not into writing daily just to keep streaks alive. I have quite a bit to say on a number of topics. The president of the United States, quite clearly, occupies much of my time these days. I&#8217;ll stay on his a** for as long as it takes.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile the streak goes on.<\/p>\n\n<div class=\"twitter-share\"><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/intent\/tweet?hashtags=socialmedia%20%23HighPlainsBlogger%20%23blogging%20%23retirement&#038;via=jkanelis\" class=\"twitter-share-button\">Tweet<\/a><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I feel like bragging for just a moment about this blog I write.
