First post. What's this all about?

At the request of my wife, I have embarked on a new and scary adventure: the Blog.

A Blog can be an intimidating thing. What must I write about? What if no one ever reads it? What if my grammar and punctuation are all hinky?

I will endeavor to provide my insights into anything I find interesting. That doesn't mean you'll find it interesting, but then, this is my Blog. Updates happen whenever I remember to post. I cannot vouch for the coherence of my thoughts, but at least I'll use bigger words.

Some of the things I find interesting are:

1. Planetary astronomy (Why is there air?)
2. Psycholinguistics (Say what?)
3. Computer hardware (Magic Smoke)
4. Software (10 Kinds of People)
5. What to do with an English degree (Freakin' Liberals)
6. Things I'd like to see studied (Reasearch in the Real World)
7. Rampant stupidity (Crap! You Have a Job?)

More things than this interest me, but at this late hour my brain begins to malfunction. Look for more from me on these and other subjects.
