Well, That Failed

Well, let’s try to reboot this thing, shall we?  I am trying to blog, but I am still stunned by the idea that people would read it in the first place.  I always feel like I am shouting into the abyss when I take the time to blog, but that might be the point.  Maybe by blogging I will find the point in blogging.  That sounds stupid, but if I were afraid of doing that I shouldn’t be doing this.

First things first, this page needs some content.  Short of hiring a real writer, I guess that will have to come from me.  I am going to try to be prolific rather than exceptional.  If I write enough, something will have to be good.  Failing that, I would like to be entertaining.  Failing that, I would like someone to read this and tell me I suck.  I am going to try to update at least once a week.  If I can’t think of something to say in seven days, I have bigger problems than writing an uread blog! 

I am going to try to stay away from a few topics, mostly because they bore me.  The first is going to be my ongoing effort to get in shape.  I might mention it from time to time, but let’s not dwell on how fat the author is.  It’s boring to you, and depressing to me, unless I am making fun of myself.  Then it is still depressing for me.  I am also going to stay away from blatant political blogs.    We don’t need to get into arguments over who is right and who is wrong.  We might talk about a situation, but let’s keep it in the middle.  I am sure lots of other people would like to talk about that.

Mostly I think I will just talk about things that are interesting to me, and hopefully someone out there will be interested in reading that blog.  We will see with the next installment!
