The Beginning

Hello. I'd thought I'd start by giving a little introduction to the birth of this blog on this Sunday evening, August 3rd, 2008. This will be my first foray into the blogosphere. I've never had a Xanga, MySpace page, or whatever it was people used back in the day. Ok, that's not entirely true. I had something that resembled a blog during my second year of undergrad, but that was rather unrefined so I'm not gonna count it. But this one will count, even if this is the only post I ever write. That was largely the barrier for me, whether I could consistently post. By consistent I mean a post of at least once a week, don't want to set the bar TOO high. Blogs tend to start out fairly strong, but then they just sorta taper off, until people I guess simply run out of things to say or just lose interest. So yeah I certainly have things to say now, and I'd imagine things will go fairly well for a month or so, but there are no guarantees, meaning you should savor every delicious word I write.

So what do I have to write about? What can you expect from me? In the short term, I'll probably just talk about random things I like, dislike, maybe give some top five lists, just general things that are not time dependent. In the long term (if there is a long term), this blog will probably degenerate into my thoughts on comic books, television, movies, technology, and current events (ha!). I'm hoping this blog might even be educational at times, but I'll probably be very hand wavy in my explanations so that's a disclaimer right there. Oh, and henceforth, I'll try not to start off my posts with a lie.
