Blog Theory

There's an old saying about opinions:

"OPINIONS ARE LIKE ASSHOLES.
EVERYONE HAS ONE AND MOST OF THEM STINK."

In the all online world of the 21st century, the same can probably be said about blogs.

Yet, love them or hate them, blogs have opened up a whole new world of communication, commentary and opinion. They have given voice to silent opinions globally, no matter how hopeless, whacked out or fruitless those opinions might be.

Count me as one of the hopeless, whacked out and fruitless.
(OK... I might be a fruit, but I can still be fruitless.)

For good or bad, I now recognize that online journaling can be, at least for some people, including me, a way to find sanity in a world of insanity... and a way to maintain some sense of place in a world where it becomes harder to stand every day.

I have discovered that we are all enormously fucked-up, no matter how put together we seem on the outside. For myself, I can be a rock for everyone I know, even though I am a human landfill inside.

At one time, I looked at blogs as just more noise in a world that is already a deafening cacophony of people screaming wildly from rooftops with nothing meaningful to say. Now I realize that all the crap that is meaningless to me will probably have meaning to and for somebody else, even if it is only the screamers themselves. So, as one of those people screaming wildly into the abyss that is life, I can now respect the lunatic cacophony, even if I don't understand it. (Note: This respect and understanding does not apply to idiot conservative nutcases who believe we should amend the Constitution to deny rights rather than to insure, enforce and guarantee them.)

I promise nothing. I guarantee nothing.
So, here goes nothing.

Note: This site was created with Microsoft FrontPage. Because FrontPage doesn't play nice with superior browsers such as Firefox and Safari, I have had to simplify the design of the internal pages. When I have time, I'll re-create it on a Mac, so it will look the way I want it to look, instead of the way Microsoft wants it to look.
