Welcome to “The
Ozone”
The
Mission Statement
“Trying, without much success, to
motivate friends and acquaintances with perceived business, parental, school
and other mundane life responsibilities to get out and enjoy themselves while
they still can. Life is too short. Carpe diem.”
“The
Upward Through The Ozone” web site never will be all things to all
people. Heck, it never will be all things to very many people at all. Such is
life, as we know it. In any case, it originally was an attempt to get friends
and acquaintances together with the prime goal of trying to enjoy as much of
our time that we have left on this earth as possible. Since most of these
people had no clue whatsoever how to accomplish this seemingly easy task, and
didn’t have a dollar to buy one, “The Ozone”
came to their rescue. The most popular excuse given as to why these people
never did anything other than remain cloistered in their own little mundane and
pathetic worlds was, “But there is never anything to do here!” So, given my
marching orders, I started looking for things for them to do in the place in
which they seemed to be the most comfortable, “The
Ozone.” From these meager beginnings, “The
Ozone” Newsletter was hatched into being, and soon evolved (unlike
its’ readers) into this web site.
This has not been an easy task. I
very early in my endeavors learned that most of these folks were too lazy to
even read the newsletter. If they did, in a moment of weakness, actually get
around to reading it, it wore them out so utterly that they were satisfied to
vicariously live through the escapades of those who bravely garnered the
courage to overcome their agoraphobia and venture out into the world in search
of little moments of happiness. Little victories.
I would like “The Ozone” web site to develop into something
that would be as interactive as possible with its’ visitors. Input and
suggestions are always welcome. You can always click on the “T.
C.” email link to get in touch with masters of the web site. I
hope you enjoy your trip into “The Ozone.”

**Note
from T.C.: “Upward through the Ozone” is all mine, like
everything in this web site (ask for permission to reprint things, or else.) In
other words, I take all of the credit and because of all the work that has gone
into this, I raise a glass of something or other to me all the time; nobody
else seems to. There was that one time when a friend raised a glass to my lips
because I was on the floor and couldn’t reach the bar. Heck, I couldn’t reach
my lips. I don’t know if that counts. To say the least, it was a friendly
gesture. After all, what are friends for? If I know or can find out whom to
attribute a saying to or anything else in this web site, I will do my best to
give them credit. If I can’t find out anything, I offer my apologies to the
sage individual who thought it up first. Like the old steer in the pasture, at
least I tried.
