Zoomerang ME
 
Dear Paula,
 
I  wouldn’t mind  one of those Zoomerang
evaluations sent out to all my colleagues to
see if any one actually would fill out the
bullets and give me feedback, tell me how
I’m doing, how’s my driving so to speak,
impact, provocation-rating, entertainment
value--my exposure to every one on the
Faculty List being  more than anyone else’s
exposure, I bet: if you count virtual time.
 
In my dreams I’m available to everyone
24/7/365, not in an administrative capacity,
but I like to think ministrative none the less.,
ministering to the void in cross-cultural inter-
disciplinary chatter across the curriculum of
the kind that generates emergent phenomena
and values.
 
Or not.
 
See: that’s what I want to know, and why
I could use a Zoomeranger. Folks might
could give me anonymous food-back on
how I  could serve the virtual community
better: topics and stuff that they might want
me to try to put in play,  notions that might
be unprofessional for them to bring up but
I don’t mind and that’s what court  jesting
is Good for.  Anything that can suffer and
stand up to the playful antics of   inter-
collegiate banter and bashing is all the
stronger for it as is the community.
 
I’ve been operating in a cloud of unknowing,
deaf & blind all these years just assuming I’m
doing a Good Thing—my  pre-professional
stimulus packaging sure to bring a revival,
renaissance, reformation, rebirth, .born
again and again. Me in  my fool’s paradise
just asking for it—a revelation. Zoom
Zoom Zoom.

xxxooo, Sam
