Well, with that amusing little anecdote out of the way, we can get on with the serious stuff. I don't intend this to be an overt sports blog, or politics blog, or whatever. Basically, it's just going to be a spot for me to comment on whatever happens to be making my neurons fire at the time.

I may even throw in some interesting links. Here's one - Tilt Online
