Having logged in for my customary Saturday morning Eyes on marathon posting session, I was saddened to see the typical six friend requests that have graced my notification bar for years now, has been reduced to a mere five candidates who presume a virtual connection with me. Curious to know which of my potential friends would act in such a manner, I was disappointed to discover that none other than our Dr Brian Unne rescinded his invitation, to what I thought could turn out to be a long-lasting, fraternal bond.
My question to him, as well as to all of you is: What drives a man to such a thing? Did I wrong him in some integral way as to warrant the loss of prospective comrade? And if this is truly the end of an era between Dr Unne and myself that never quite manifested itself, where do the two of us go from here?
These are the questions we ponder as a community while the rest of the world struggles with their banal problems.
