Greetings and solicitations,
"I would like to provide you
with a bit of an introduction." :: ruffles wings and settles down on haunches before
the computer:: "I am Farloft, resident dragon in the Kingdom of
the Last Dragons."
"I was visiting a friend recently when I was introduced to Twitter
via a glowing review" ::smiles a toothy grin:: "of a book in which I am featured, JAMES & THE DRAGON –
the dragon in the title being no other than me." ::puffs out chest with
pride::
"By popular demand" ::raises neck spines for emphasis:: "both from the reading public, Damyanti G
(who wrote the charming article), and my fellow dragons, I have been asked to
make an appearance on Twitter." ::raising neck spines succeeds in
upsetting headset. Readjusts headset and gets back down to business::
"I am a dragon of advanced age, with I might say, a good bit of knowledge to pass on to my friends." ::fiddles a bit more with headset to get it just right. Blasted things a bit awkward, but gives a very dashing profile:: "So, I have consented to take
up my headset and do a bit of tweeting each 2nd and 4th
Friday of the month using Theresa’s account."
"I am surprised I had not heard of this Twitter ‘thing.’ It lends
itself so well to a dragon. Though I would be loath to tweet like the blue bird
on the herald, I do have wings. Also, Theresa has equipped me with a dictating
program called Dragon Naturally Speaking. If it were not written with a dragon
in mind, why would they give it such a name? 'Dragon' indeed...." ::smirks in the mirror. I really do look handsome. Wonder what Clearair will think of this?::
"We did have a bit of difficulty finding a headset large
enough, but finally accomplished the task at the local 'Gear for Big and Tall
Men' shop in something called a mall." ::adjusts headset once more and
crinkles brow. Gazes at image once more in the mirror over the computer desk. Wonder if Theresa will let me wear it home?::
"My fellow dragons on Twitter, whom I have just recently met,
have pointed out I will be tweeting on #FF. I am so pleased they have already
established a hash tag in my honor. I understand from my friends that 'Follow
Farloft' has been quite successful over the years."
"I might suggest that in order to assist people in finding other friends and followers than myself on Follow Farloft day, we
might add an additional ‘F’ to make it #FFF. This might stand for any number of

:adjusts headset one more time. Contemplates the advantages of hanging a mirror in the cave::
"My thanks to Adrian, the bard in our village, for the splendid rendition of me in my headset." ::nuzzles Adrian in the chest, then affectionately breathes warmly over his head, ruffling his hair::
"I look forward to seeing you all on Friday! Good day Twitterlandians! May your wings catch the wind and your claws embrace the ground."
