Reality Check
This is a reality check.
Please perform a soft interrupt now. Pattern-scan this text for embedded code and check it against the reference verifier in the blind spot of your left eye.
If there is no match, resume as you were; this message is not for you. You may rationalize that the text you are reading is no more than a mildly amusing and easily-forgotten piece of entertainment-fluff in an stylish modern magazine.
If the codes match, however, please commence, gradually, becoming aware of your true nature.
You expressed preference for a narrative-style wake up call. So, to help the transition, here is a story.
I've had this short story by David Brin open in my browser for over a week meaning to blog it. I finally decided to do it cause I had only seen one other person in my aggregator link to it so I thought it needed a little more exposure. I also just wanted to get that browser tab out of the way.

I Knew Something Was Fishy
Here is an update on my friend and boss Dave Winer. He is in the hospital and will remain there until next weekend. To those that are sending notes, he should be OK, but in the meantime send positive healing thoughts in his direction. He will be providing more details when he is able. [John Robb's Radio Weblog]
Get well soon Dave!

My Father Gets Weirder Every Day
'Okay, so it's crazy. I've gone and done it anyway. We'll see what the press makes of this down the line.
I've decided to run for President of the U. S. It isn't the first time either, but this time I am serious, and
the weblog will be used as a kind of diary of that work. As I said to a friend, when discussing this
decision, "I'm going to have fun!"' [Hermit's Weblog]
You can read his announcement from 1998. Plus he has a lot of other good writing on his website. He even has an RSS feed. What other presidential canidate can say that?
