A new beginning

So my wife Susie, she of the great blog over at "The Knit Farm," (and look over to the left of the page for a link there) has been bitten by the blogging bug. Now, I've wanted to do one of my own for a while, and in fact I even made a start at it a while ago, but for one reason or another I didn't keep it up. Well, here I go again. If you're reading this, then maybe you're interested in what I have to say, so I have to put a few things up front.

If you know me, you know what I do, and who I work for, and that's fine. But anything I ever post on here is from me. It is in no way representative of my work, my employer, or anyone or anything except me and my own views. This is important. I may from time to time comment on things that contradict things you may have heard. That's fine, because it's me, as me, speaking my own mind. My boss doesn't have anything to do with this, and that's as it should be. End of story.

If you're reading this blog and want to comment, that's great. I encourage it. (Hey, at least I'll know if anyone is reading this thing!) But on my last attempt, the only comments I got were from comment-bots, that put ads in my comments. No sir. Not happening again. So, if you're leaving a comment, and you aren't a blogger member, you'll have to do one of those "type the letters you see in this box" thing that computers haven't (yet) learned how to cope with. No biggie, just hit a few keys, and voila! If I want ads in my blog, I'll join adsense.

I know, this all sounds pretty pretentious for a nothing blog from a nobody like me, and maybe it is. Sorry.

Anway, that's the opening salvo. Check back later for actual content!

Oh, the name? I dunno, seemed to go well with Susie's, eh?
