Yak Herding

Taking a lead from innumerable works of fiction, I've decided to fake my own death and begin again under a whole new identity. There will be a tragic accident, and people will be sad about it, but life will go on. How could it do otherwise?

Rest assured, I shall continue to post to this blog from beyond the grave. Admittedly, that may make the illusion a little difficult to sustain, especially when I start exposing details of my new life as a yak herder in Outer Mongolia, but I'm sure it will all work out for the best, one way or another.

See y'all back at the yurt.

I'm seriously considering becoming a yak herder. Perhaps we could swap hints and tips on keeping yak warble fly at bay or treating rinderpest?

Well, wouldn't you know that I too wish to fake my own death and start over. Perhaps there is something in the air? Anyway, do let me know how you do it. If you would like to perhaps do it as a team please let me know.

You're crazy, you know that? :-)

I prefer to think of it as eccentricity.
