the interesting idea... the start of this project... the conversations to come



I'm a member of Post Crossing, the internet site for postcard exchange. I sent a card to another Post Crosser, Ilona from Germany. She asked that people tell her which magical power they would like to have. Her question really made me think!

In turn, I thought it would be an interesting project to ask people to pose Thought-Provoking Questions. I would do my best to answer with my opinion, and I would encourage others to add theirs.

And, so was born this blog! I hope that it will be the home for many interesting conversations in the year ahead!

Some to have a little fun with...

From Washington, on the other side of the continent from me, comes these language-based "imponderables," as the writer calls them:
Why do we PARK in a DRIVEway and DRIVE on the PARKway?
and
Why is something sent by TRUCK a SHIPMENT while a SHIP carries CARgo?
Scratching my brain...
