Okay. I decided not to try to think of a topic to write about this week.

“Whatever,” I thought, whatever comes to me at random.

Random came to me, and that is this week’s passion.

I always have enjoyed playing with random number generators, viewing random facts. It wasn’t until 20 minutes ago that I realized how many interesting random generators there are for us to enjoy.

• My random number (between 1-1000) is 854.

• My random (Hawaiian) name is Kaleo Kalani.

• My random (from all U.S. Censuses) name is Allyson Trenholm.

• My random common noun is stone.

• My random average noun is fissure.

• My random somewhat uncommon noun is rapier.

• My random uncommon noun is blowfly.

• My random very uncommon noun is valvulitis.

• My random obscure noun is Kishar. (“In the Akkadian epic Enuma Elish,

• Kishar is the daughter of Lahmu and Lahamu . . . .“ – Wikipedia)

• My random sentence is “An unpopular paranoia rewrites the motorway.”

• nMy random website is a wrestling website called “WWE.”

• What about a random generator for topics for my next essay?

• I just Googled that and – lo and behold – “The Random Blog Topic Generator” popped up. My random (Category: religion) topic is “Evidence of a Creator.” Weird – I was just discussing that topic with my daughter on the phone this afternoon!

I believe in random!
