Tossing the Caber

The caber toss is a traditional Scottish athletic event in which competitors toss a large tapered pole called a "caber". This competitive display of strength has no particular significance with this blog post other than it is being written while visiting Scotland and it also marks the first ‘blogging-toss’, so to speak, after many months of writing inactivity. 

Unquestionably, caber tossing involves a great deal of strength and this noun does have a synomonus connection with the dearth in blogging activity. Bazflyer philosophy supports the only strength that really matters is the strength that makes you what you are in the eyes of those you love. Family always comes first....Comparing the quantum of life with a Ferris Wheel, it could be said, a ride has just finished and we have now gotten onboard again for another turn of the wheel.
