Err...
[Wannabe author sits staring at the keyboard in front of him. Darn! Where is a brilliant title when you need it?]
[Silence]
[A hesitant peck at the letters 'Err']
[Then, absolute silence]
[Before silence steps across the thin line to become deafening, writer pecks out '...' for effect.]
[Sits back to stare at handiwork]
[Stares at 'Err...']
[One finger inches towards the prominent backspace button. Then retracts.]
[Mind churns. 'Err...' is as good a title as any. But somehow... how does one say it? Incomplete...]
[Mind churns some more. Language, vocabulary, grammar, intent... all disappear. Gone. Poof!]

Err... Welcome?
