After several months of idleness, I have decided to resurrect my blog.
I know that for many of you this will evoke a myriad of emotions: excitement, wonder, stark terror. Let me assure you – things will be different this time around.
First of all, no political blogs. I am a political conservative – with a dash of Libertarian thrown in – but I'm burned out on politics. When I realized how many people either support Obama or, at least, are willing to give him the benefit of a doubt, I saw that we were all doomed, so let others cry in the wilderness. I'm not interested anymore!
Secondly, I plan to post on a more or less regular basis: perhaps once a week on Wednesdays. This will give you nice folks something to look forward to.
Finally, my topics will touch on everything from stupid people that I come into contact with to spiritual musings: whatever I feel like pontificating on. (Insofar as one can pontificate using the written word.)
I also (is this fourthly?) plan to re-run some of my older posts from another era, and (fifthly?) I'll even respond to some of your comments – if there are any. (I go on the theory that for every comment I receive, 1,000 people have read my blog.)
Some of you may ask, "Why not let a sleeping dog lie? Why dig up this repulsive pile of possum droppings?"
To those I would respond, "Thanks for asking."
I have tried Facebook and found it wanting. The very concept of requesting others to be my friend is pathetic. It's like my good friend Darin Cozzens said recently. (Well, I have forgotten exactly what he said, but basically it was something like, "That's so pathetic.")
I am making it easy to leave comments. No asinine codes, no memberships. Just click below and type it in. I don't want to turn this into an X-rated blog. Please keep your comment free of profanity, heresy, and character defamation.
So, beginning Wednesday, September 16, 2009, Palest Ink will be up and running. Feel free to suggest topics. I can write on anything.
