CosmicFool
Rising Star
Hello there everybody
My name is CosmicFool, the intergalactic jester, at your service.
For a long time now I have been lurking among your beautiful Nexus, soaking up all the knowledge and wisdom I possibly can, but being too afraid to open my mouth or reveal my existence. Now, as my life is taking drastic changes, most of them to positive, I feel like it is the right time to introduce myself to all of you.
Tough, as I enjoy rather observing, than reporting, I shall mostly lurk among your threads and you'll probably seldom see me posting, but nevermind. As my introductory draws to its end, I'd like to leave with a small poem by Walt Whitman, from the mid 1800 that many of you might be, or feel familiar with:
When I heard the Learn’d Astronomer
When I heard the learn’d astronomer;
When the proofs, the figures, were ranged in columns before me;
When I was shown the charts and the diagrams, to add, divide, and measure them;
When I, sitting, heard the astronomer, where he lectured with much applause in the lecture-room,
How soon, unaccountable, I became tired and sick;
Till rising and gliding out, I wander’d off by myself,
In the mystical moist night-air, and from time to time,
Look’d up in perfect silence at the stars.
Thank You.
