fp!
This may be my only chance ever to get First Post.
Sure, you see people with witty, subtle and insightful blogs and you think... well, not, "I can do that," but rather "Gee, that's pretty intimidating. I don't know if I can do that." Then you realize that, blogging being a way of "outing" yourself, you're one of the most "outing" people you know, and you relax a bit.
This blog is begun in the hope of being a small attempt at cultural dialogue. Feel free to respond to my musings and obervations, and thereby "educate me."
I used to have a great bunch of friends who'd meet to do philosophy/theology/stuff "Reading Group" nights, and now that they're gone, I'm partially buying the snake-oil that says "the web is your vehicle to escape crushing isolation and find true community." Right. As our Generalissimo saith, "Bring it on."
(quoting slashdot: '"First Post" comments usually get moderated down as off-topic almost instantly.')

The reason the new is such a great place is that there is always a chance to have another First Post; just delete this blog and start another.
Congrat's on your first post! I must say though that I consider myself to be an intelligent being, but I've never been part of a philisophical group. I do hope that you find those that love your blog. You need to keep posting!!!
Thanks everybody. I'm hoping this is a learn-as-you-go sort of thing, so encouragement is valuable.
As for the lyrics, I'm supposed to be coming out with a 5-song EP in the next few weeks, and the lyrics are probably going to be in there. I'll the save the explanation of this for a future blog entry/diatribe on what I think "value added" means or will mean for the recording industry. ;-)
