This is the start

I’ve been thinking about starting a blog.  Now I know what you’re thinking.  Why?  Just to start a blog?  Do you have anything to write that anybody would actually want to read?  Well, maybe.  But the fact is that I just feel the need to write.  You know the cliche about it being cathartic?  I could use some catharsis.  More on that later.  For now, this is the start.
