The Day of The Jackal

The hunt is on!

Let the game begin!

This is all old, very old news. Sometimes, it does take a while for things to show themselves, to come up out of the shadows or even out from behind the curtain. Peeky, peeky, I see you.

Life is so funny is so many ways. Lots of entertainment to be had and to participate in if one so chooses.¹

I've had my bucket of popcorn, a seemingly endless supply by the way, for quite some time. Thank goodness the lawn chair has a backing upon which I can rest and relax. Somehow I have a front row seat and though at times various things escape the arena and land in my lap, it doesn't surprise me - at all. It is the way of such 'things'.

It's true, I do make my own entertainment and at times even set it in motion. My patience at times seems to run on forever² and yet fruition is never denied.

This is not to say that I work with puppets, dancing to some imagined strings. Far from it.

In recognition that you are the same as I, thanks for playing.

Yes, indeed.

And in this universe nothing remains the same. Actually that is true for many other 'realms' as well but never mind that. Change is a requirement, not a choice³.

Luckily for me, my popcorn is perpetual.

It's true I am not a player⁴.
