Which brings up another interesting point:

What are we doing if it's already available on line?

What do we have to say visually
that hasn't already been said publicly a thousand times
in nearly the same way?
or
If we're okay with saying the same thing
how do we say it differently?
more humorously?
more eloquently?
stronger?
more beautifully?
more compelling?

Just askin' out loud
what I silently ask myself every day.
