The Launch

This is the inaugural episode of my foray into the blogosphere.

GreenFlash Dreamer is all about those of us that find ourselves drifting away at odd times of the day into some internal world away from quarterly budgets, monthly reports, office politics and annual results reviews. These dry and lifeless icons of corporate life get replaced deep in our subdural cortex by the much more appealing daydreams of sandy deck shoes, Wayfarer sunglasses and lime-rimmed Corona bottles chilling our fingers. It's those images that tempt our fingers to tap out web addresses like Margaritaville.com or blowitalloff.net; all the while shielding our flat panel displays with a file folder lest the boss drift into our offices. There's something magic about an illicit mental escape from all fiscal reality into a vague future in which we are financially independent, 35 pounds lighter and relaxing in the cockpit of a sleek sailboat in a harbor town where a sixty-five degree evening is called "winter".

I hope to write a blog to appeal to all of you who, like me, needs a lifeline out of reality every now and then to hear stories, real and imagined, that briefly divert us from the ordinary, responsible lives we live.

I hope to write thoughts, spin stories, venture poetry and share pictures in a way that would resonate with others like me that focus on a sunset on the water to see something unusual... a GreenFlash Dreamer.
