Hello

Welcome, friends!

Congratulations on making it to my very first blog. Each entry of this blog was designed to provide you with maximum blog satisfaction, regardless of whatever your blog reading purposes may be.

If you are a woman and you're reading this blog for fascinating tips on the inner workings of the male mind, look no further. Testosterone.  Stubble. Intermittent crying.  It's all right here!

If you are a man and you're perusing these words... what the hell are you doing?  Aren't there some insipid sports web sites you'd rather be on?  Don't sweat it. We can be cool, but only as long as we share the same tastes in music, you really dig British humor (humour?), and you have a thing for beer can art.

Perhaps you're a writer and you're on this site to be influenced by (steal) ideas.  You'll find plenty of them here, I'm sure. The essential ingredients for interesting characters, I can tell you up front, are seeded throughout.

I am not doing this for vanity.  I am not doing this to become the next Interwebz stupor star.  I'm doing this because I'm tired of being lazy, and I need some degree of discipline in my life.  How long can I stick with something before I get bored and wish to move on?  All throughout my life, this question has never changed.

Finally, when deciding how to spend your day, remember the following: these posts are a time drain, just like anything else associated with the Internet.  I'm only here because I've always wanted to keep a journal.  A recent episode of the Simpsons (yes, I still watch, and yes, it's still amazing) reminded me of the importance of recording one's thoughts and life events.  If Homer can do it, then so can I.

I plan to march forward while looking back (with the help of these entries)




(This'll probably be my first and last one, so, um, well, you know    ...Ta!)
