This Is This

Today I am in an all-day conference which involves free food and wireless internet access. Unfortunately it started early which means I was not able to write a post this morning.

As you may already know, I am one of the luckiest people in the world. Literally. I’m not a happy outlook person by some stretch, but I just get lucky. I don’t rely on it, I don’t invite it, it just happens - that’s why it’s called luck. One of the more interesting strains of luck is coincidence, of which I have more than my share.

The downside of coincidence is that it’s a small world and this ruins a lot of chances of anonymity, which has its benefits. So tomorrow I will post a story about how during a drunken taxi ride home from London I made a complete tit of myself only to find that it was in front of someone in my circle of friends.

Dear Mr. Rusbridger,
I run a blog entitled This Is This and I am working on a feature about newspapers. I, like many of my readers, are fascinated in this phenomenon, as many people consider 2006 to have been the Year of the Newspaper.
