Post Number One- MISSION STATEMENT

Greetings, Boys and Girls, and Welcome!

This is the inaugural post here at my first blog, so I thought I would give a brief, (a relative term), explanation of  the what and the why behind it, and maybe a bit of a description of what to expect.  Of course, all of this hinges on whether you, or anyone else, chooses to read it.

I first felt there could be a need for this a couple weeks ago after, during a Facebook
 post,  I dropped into a rather long rant on a certain subject.  A long rant.  Really long.  So I figured "the Facebook" was probably not the best place for a bite of personal opinion of that size.  I also felt that it was kinda self-indulgent to hammer my Buds with a chunk of text so big that it was subject to be crowding other stuff off the tiny screens of their mobile devices.  An Economy of Verbage is something I have never been accused of.  (Hard to believe, I know, but it's true.)

But, in all honestly, I didn't really feel like relinquishing the opportunity to rant/ramble in long form.  (Vanity.)  I just needed a different outlet- a more appropriate venue.  So, here we are.  Now, down to the details-

If you choose to read any of the content that I may post here, I hope that it will serve to entertain, enlighten, provoke.

I will not intentionally offend (piss off), alienate, slander, or otherwise damage any group, race, creed, blah, blah, blah...

This does not mean that I will not be using satire, innuendo, or other such devices to prove a particular point.

I will do no swearing, in the classic sense, and I will limit the cussin' to one dollar words, or less.  And I will only use them when necessary for dramatic effect/emphasis.

I may also share some music and music news, images, essays, a little art, maybe.  Maybe a joke...

If, at any time during this narcissistic exercise, you become offended, frightened, homesick, sleepy, queasy, etcetera, feel free to bail.  My feelings will not be hurt, 'cause I won't know...
