I started this blog a while ago.  Obviously, it’s been a hit and miss venture.  Yesterday, in an effort to overcome this recent (and bold, given my history) claim, I wrote out a post about Earth Day in which I (a) derided the author of an article I disagreed with, and (b) questioned in an arguably disingenuous way how anyone could be anti-The Earth.  I even drew up a comic to go with the post. 

Then, less than five minutes after hitting “Publish,” I deleted it. 

Truth be told, I’m finding less and less value reading blogs and opinion pieces following that formula.  Moreover, I don’t see what possible value my cynical sniping adds to… anything, really.  So I pulled it, deciding instead to focus the purpose of this space on something different.  That’s not to say I won’t post opinions in which I disagree with others (or yourself!), nor am I pledging to limit discussions to rainbows, unicorns, and / or ponies.  What I am pledging to do is take a more introspective look and post items related to my life, experience, and observation.  Oh, and comics, too.

To put it simply, there are hundreds thousands millions loads of blogs where you can read witty criticisms from half-quoted articles specifically chosen because the blogger trolled for material.  I’m not knocking the business, I’m just choosing a different path.  On that note, I hope you’ll stick around and see where this leads. 

Thanks,

The Management
