On a Wing: Welcome to the Blog

Why am I here? I'm not sure yet, to be honest. I'm looking for something, and my soul seems like a good place to start. As such you, my most patient and faithful reader, will be subject to reading whatever I feel like writing. Deal with it.

What is the deep meaning behind my title, you ask? I'll tell you, because I'm a mind-reader like that. The phrase, supposedly, goes back to a movie made during WWII. During the dramatic finale, the fighter pilot radios in that "I'm coming in, on a wing and a prayer." This was quite literal. All the pilot had left was a single wing, and his prayer that he would find a way back home.

Or so the story goes. I'm not sure how factual that is, but something about it speaks to me.

I feel like this sometimes. OK, a lot of the time.

So here I am, making my way home on a wing and a prayer. Coming with me?
