Introduction

I've put off creating a personal blog (I have one for my Digital Bootstraps project) because I didn't thing I would have anything to say that would be interesting enough for people to read, and comment on. Also while I find the things my cats do interesting I doubt most others would.

However this recently changed. I recently got drug kicking and screaming into Facebook by a friend so that I could keep in contact with a few people I went to High School with. During the Presidential election I wrote a couple of notes that got good responses and I enjoyed the debate that ensued.

I'm not exactly sure where this blog is going to go. I'm going to write about whatever interests me. For the most part that's my family, computers, politics, books, and history (specifically the American Civil War, and WWII) with a smattering of other geek culture thrown in for good measure.

Read or don't, subscribe or don't, it truly makes little difference to me as this is going to become an outlet for me to say what I feel so that I can watch how I grow and change over time. As most people do I feel I'm fairly open minded. If something disproves my beliefs I'll re-evaluate and change them.

I have a couple of notes on Facebook that I will probably copy over and will tag them as FACEBOOK in the interest of achieving them all in one spot, those that are no longer relevant due to the outcome of the election won't move.

Let the journey begin.
