He thinks he's a writer, yet gets paid to crunch numbers. Icarus invites you to take a load off and read what he has chosen to document during the course of his voyage of self discovery. Mayhaps his wings shall not be set ablaze this time...Icarusnoreply@blogger.comBlogger11100tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19141400.post-1147444338867858762006-05-12T17:21:00.000+03:002006-05-12T17:36:47.650+03:00<p class="MsoNormal">Sorry if this isn’t what you were expecting to see.<br /><br />Woe Is Icarus a.k.a Growing Pains went online at <st1:time minute="43" hour="9">9:43 am</st1:time> <st1:date year="2005" day="20" month="11">Sunday, November 20th 2005</st1:date> and spanned 99 entries with a total of 32,401 words.

It was an experiment in identity, a rant on loneliness and a diatribe on existentialism. Or at least Icarus would like to remember it as such. It went offline for several reasons that are beyond the parameters of this blog; to cut a long story short - the experiment ended.<br /><br />Brock, Spaz, Moose, Shaft, Salty Mc'Gee, Bill, Jill, Bunny, Shuga Brown, Girgis, Semelie, Sitana, Phoneix, Pooky and all the other colorful characters that adorned these pages continue to plough their way through life; each imbuing life with their own distinct residual trace. Icarus too will disappear into this human mass we know as humanity - enough of the lime light. He has an exam to worry about, friends to see and a little brother that’s due to come back from his first year abroad very soon.<br /><br />Thank you for plugging in. It meant more than you will ever know.<br /><br />It was a dream...<br /><br /><span style="font-size:85%;"><span style="font-style: italic;"> *if you are a friend of Icarus you will know where to find him...
