I just happened to fall into this guy's website, sort of a verbal blog site. Ranting and raving --- one of my favorite pasttimes (DON'T GET MY WIFE STARTED!!!) --- and in a very intelligent way. I am NOT a fan, in any way, shape or form, of hip-hop music or culture or anything related to hip-hop, but this guy, who is evidently a hip-hop DJ-type [from the site: creator of the hip hop music blog and founder of New York's longest running hip-hop radio show, WBAI's Underground Railroad] is just plain good. I love this crap!
In particular, I just have to say "Poor poor Michael Steele". I love (at about the :30 second mark) that he is "well-meaning and sincere and charmingly oblivious to the reality that his party doesn't really respect him all that much and they only gave him his job as a cynical ploy to pretend they're down with black people." Now THAT is a great quote. And probably quite true.

My first post ...
... and you never forget your first ...
Thanks to my wife, who has been nudging me ... or noodging me ... to begin writing or blogging or something ... ANYTHING!! ... because there is just so much stuff crammed into my head and I do need some way to get it all out. Will people read this? Who knows? Will people LIKE it? I just dunno ...
What I plan to chat about:
My kids -- nothing else matters as much
LEGO -- fun, just plain fun
Harley-Davidson -- my very large motorcycle, and a life's worth of waiting for it ... well, a third of a life by the time I bought her ...
Investing -- a long-time hobby, but I'm just not good enough to quit my day job ... YET!!
Reading -- how else to learn about ... everything?
Disney -- my family's love of all things Disney
80s music -- yes, 80s music, because little music since then has not sucked
What I did or thought about today -- can't wait for these, can you????
Other fun and/or random stuff -- as things and ideas pop up
I do already have some words that I have "blogged", in a simple Word file on my wife's laptop, over the last year or two. And I do plan to use much of this in the short term. However:
1) Is it cheating? If I have already written it, is it a log (OK, for precision, a current log)?
2) If it is not on the web, then is it a "blog"? Remember that the "b" stands for Web (yeah, that sounds weird), as in Internet. This is in a file, so it ain't a blog yet. Soon ...
To be truthful, I found this blog just recently: The Erin O'Brien Owner's Manual for Human Beings. It was a random find; actually I think she made Blogger.com's Blogs of Note recently, and I happened to see it, so I clicked. Dunno who she is, aside from her self-descriptions as a mom in Ohio. It is not so much what she says, but HOW she says it. I really like her writing style. More on her later.
