There's a first time for everything

There truly is a first time for everything. There's a first time for moving out on your own, or drinking alcohol, or playing an instrument, or just being surprised even. This however is not my first time blogging. Haha I have a personal blog that acts as an online journal. Most people have them these days. My life is less eventful (thank heaven) than it's been in several years so I write less on it. It's also, as I said more personal and more focused on my own life and the events and occurences in it.

I have been toying with the idea of this blog for a little while. I wasn't sure how it would be received so I have put it off. I've been told on more than one occasion, however, that I make things interesting to read. Not tootin' my own horn here or anything, just saying what I've been told. That was the encouragement I needed to start this blog. I have no delusions that many people will read much less have their lives changed by my blog. That's not the intent. The intent is to create a place for discussion.

We all have things we want to talk about but are afraid to. With the political and economic climate being what it is, we have more fodder for those cannons than we otherwise might. Somehow, we still manage to not say much of what we want to. I don't simply because I don't want to fight. I avoid certain subjects like politics and the government for that very reason. Those discussions tend to get very heated and leave a bad taste in my mouth. Enter Got opinions. Will share them.

I can promise you that this blog will be a straight up, to the point, blunt opinion of everything I see as important in our world. That being said, any input on topics you'd like to discuss is very welcome.

Here's hoping this works...
