Me, 2009. (Tanya photo)
All of the above planning and dreaming was before computers,
E-mail and Internet. The revolution in electronic communication happened while
I was on the road. Now even I have a few computer skills and my wife, Tanya, is
a computer expert--what is affectionately called a geek..
This last of my proposed three titles, “The Imhotep
Construction Company” then, is presented now as a blog which may someday become a printed-on-paper
book for those who still love the feel, smell and sight of a traditional book.
"Imhotep" is the name of the mythic
architect/designer/builder of the Pyramid of Joser, supposedly one of the
oldest pyramids in Egypt. My title: “Imhotep Construction Company”, celebrates
the fanciful connection I feel with the creative workers, seekers and builders
of the past.
The “construction”
necessary for my generation’s “Imhotep Construction Company” though, may not be another pyramid of stone but a
"construction" of mind-stuff (consciousness)— the “spiritual engineering” which is probably homo sapiens' ultimate project
I plan to include memories, yarns, poems. cartoons, photos and even some
recipes in this book, so don't expect it to fit neatly into any literary genre.
That’s it for now.
Welcome and good reading.
