This is the first post, and I'm not sure exactly what this BLOG thing is going to be used for. On-line journals seem to be "all the rage" these days, so I'm not sure if I'm even doing anything remotely original. Why do we have such a fascination with reading other people's thoughts and feelings these days? Is anything private? With webcams and spy satellites and what-not, nothing is sacred. Hell, fifty-million people probably watched me jack-off tonight. Probably see a digitized clip of it tomorrow morning on CNN while I'm eating waffles and discussing disturbing dreams with my wife. Anyway, I'm joining this on-line pervision by updating this damn thing on a daily basis. Maybe more. Who knows? Since I'm working on a novel (currently titled Wetting The Bed), I need an outlet for the non-linear thoughts that constantly race through my brain. Can't have those leaking into the plotline, now can we? Of course we can't.

Ugh. Anyway, for your enjoyment, I'm going to include some interesting links with each post. That way you'll have an excuse to come back here on a regular basis. Hey, you can even talk about this at the watercooler every morning, joking about what a twisted fuck I am while you drink coffee and sexually harrass the woman in the cubicle next to you. You know who you are, godamn it. Can't hide behind that Sears two-for-one sale tie and those Payless Shoes loafers forever, my good man. Someday you'll have to prove yourself. Then your whole fucking world will come crashing down...

Enough of this. I'm off to do more important things. These are the links you need.
