Yup. Bear's blog is going in for a re-make, re-do re- um, well, whatever. (Actually, I've already started; not sure what things are gonna look like when I get finished.)
Thoughts would be appreciated.
Bear is not a Boar (or is it bore?); freshness can be exhilarating. Emphasis on "can be."

Well, . . .
It's like this.
I was planning to have something worthwhile here today. Hopefully thoughtful; possibly provocative.
But that's not going to happen.
I have been busy with some other very worthwhile work, but it isn't something that I can post here. Not today; perhaps not ever.
You realize, as do I, that this kind of thing isn't supposed to be happening. I'm retired. I have not appreciable work to do.
Alas; I'm not a very good manager of my existence. The unanticipated has an "interesting" habit of sneaking in where and when lest expected.
"Life happens while you're in the process of making plans."
Ever had that problem? I suppose you have.
So, to keep you from getting completely bored, here are some questions.
Can there be such a thing as a moral economy? If such a thing existed, what might it look like; what would be the key characteristics? Would it be consumer-driven? Would it be focused on the needs of people, or focused on the needs of business?
That'll keep you thinking for a few minutes at least.
(Hint: I'm going to be getting on to the idea of a Moral Economy. I'll explain on Friday. That will have something to do with a series of newspaper columns I have written over the last eight years, and the thinking that has gone into the whole concept.)
Thank you for your patience.

CHANGE
I once heard it said that the only constant in change. It's true. Lots of things keep changing. People come and go; seasons wax and wane; heat, rain, snow, and cold surround us at different times.
Another change is going to happen, here.
I've decided to use this blog more than I have in the recent past.
I'm going to post some ideas from long ago and not so long ago.
Every Tuesday and Friday, I'll have something, starting later this month. As in next week. Perhaps.
On Mondays and Thursdays, there'll be something new on my other major blog, Chrome on the Range, to which I've already introduced you (below).
Hope to see you at both places.
Please Bear with me during this period of reconstruction.
