What is SWAG?

There are at least three definitions of swag. The first one is valuable goods. That may or may not apply here. The second one is "goods or money obtained illegally" which definitely does not apply, except for the fact that most ideas are generated by people standing on the backs of giants. The third definition comes from a time when I was in technical college studying electronic engineering. If you took a test and had no idea what the answer to the question was, you used the SWAG method. Scientific Wild Ass Guess. I think the third applies to these articles as much as the first, at least to some degree. Everything I write and plop down in this space is going to be 'out there.' I am not going to limit myself to reality. There will be reality based stuff, outright fiction (which might be reality in another world, or this one if you 'believe,' and there will be random firing of my synapse's recorded for posterity. I don't know how to sort all these, so good luck. You may find something you like, or maybe not.
