About me? Why I'm a dashing swashbuckler, a loyal Knight of the Armchair, cast in the Errol Flynn vein ... vain ... whatever.

About my Blog's name.
This is taken from an episode of Ruby the Galactic Gumshoe, one of the many great, modern radio plays put out by ZBS Productions (also linked in my sidebar). Specifically, it's a line spoken by the character Rodent ("No! That's Ro-DANT!") Kapoor as part of a conversation he's having with his own brain. ..which was just what I was doing in my own head, trying to figure out a name for this blog.
Now my fiance, who's wise-acre radar is finely-tuned to detect any moment in which my wits are at their thickest, chose to read me a humorous internet tidbit that I was, well, a little slow to get. And at the moment my 'light of understanding' finally went on, she offered, "Do you have a pull chain in your head?" And then the 'light' went on a second time and I knew what to call my blog. (Riveting, isn't it?)
Big Plug: if you like well-crafted stories of adventure, each filled with great tableaus of sound and imagination, then I highly recommend ZBS Productions. My personal faves are the Jack Flanders and the Ruby stories, but those are only two stars among the many they offer.
