This is my first blog.
I am not sure what to do with it. It is a clutch I am learning to operate, and with all the fanfare about blogs, I must say there is traffic, and I am making a left into oncoming traffic.
Wow, that was a bad metaphor. But what does it matter?
A blog is a market darling, it is a buzz word, it is the happening thing. It is the new haircut someone got in the early 80’s that created an era we now look back upon and ask “why would anyone do that to their hair?”
Is my blog a first step something I will regret, the momentary choice to not use a condom in the throes of what appears to be passion? The Roe vs. Wade class action participant who will change their view on the matter given time to mull it over?
Maybe. But who cares?
That is the question.

The nice thing about a blog is that I expect no one is reading this. Electrons are whirling about, like volunteer firemen, wondering when they will be called into action.
And I like that. I can write scathing indictments about large things — our millenium, you, your spouse’s secret lover(s), and God (no, wait, he ((she)) sees everything, even my blog (((do I make AdSense revenue off of him / her?t is that click fraud?))) ).
Until I see my very own protesting Cindy Sheehans camped out across from my apartment, I think the honorable approach to a blog is to carry on with a torch no one can see. And burn things down and light things up until my life is a rotating strobe light of alternatively bad and good.
Things I Like About My Blog:
1. Unlike my car, I do not have to pass an integrated breathalizer test to operate
2. Hmm, same as above
3. It’s free
4. When I get famous, my parents don’t have to see an uncensored documentary of my life.
