Hey, Look! There's a place to find people talking about Python! At least that's what I thought when I saw PythonBlogs.Com  It doesn't seem to be a real snake pit of activity - which is good for me because I'm not real good with snakes - I'm sure not real good with Python.

 After noticing that Python is at version 3.1 and the books that I bought are around version 2.5, I am going to attempt learning this language primarily by using the interactive interpreter to test the principals introduced in the books and correcting for the variations in syntax (and their underlying shifted meanings.) I figure that will lead to a lot of false starts and do overs. That, in my mind, justifies selecting "Ministry of Silly Walks" as the title of this blog. Now, as I pursue the Grail of understanding, if there are any comments, I may have to change the name to "The Argument Sketch".If there are no comments, then I'll simply be left with a notebook recording the gyrations I've gone through trying to get this right.
