So You’ve Decided to Start a Blog…

October 21, 2008

That’s right!  I’ve decided to start my own blog.  I wanted an easy way to share my thoughts, interests, ideas, and opinions with my family and friends.  I have a Facebook page and while Facebook has its merits, I’ve found that it is not the best format for sharing ideas.

It is not my intent to focus on any one, specific topic or idea but rather an entire range of topics where I have a specific interest.  Here are a few of the topics I intend on writing about:

  • Sports
  • Politics
  • Philosophy
  • Science and Technology
  • Religion
  • Philology (basically the study of language as it is used in literature)
  • Military Affairs
  • Martial Arts
  • Nature
  • Food and Drink

As you can see, it’s quite a diverse list.  I’m looking forward to sharing my thoughts on each one of these topics.  I’m also looking forward to hearing back from others who share these interests; good dialogue is an excellent way to drive back the boundaries of ignorance while expanding and growing as a person.

I do have one rule for people who wish to participate on this blog and that is we share mutual respect for one another and we don’t resort to ad hominem or vulgar attacks directed towards anyone participating in a discussion.  You can disagree, you can vent, and you can get mad but personal attacks on people won’t be tolerated; those entries will be deleted.  Other than that, the sky’s the limit.

So, the journey has officially begun.  I’m excited to see where the blog goes from here.  Feel free to comment and suggest topics as we move forward.  Until then, Happy Blogging!
