Truth is stranger than fiction, and I like knowing as many people's stories as is practical.
My little sister Ashley told me I needed a blog. You should check out her blog (ashelysbloggeh.blogspot.com) and then think about becoming a Big yourself (www.bbbsa.org).
I don't usually promote things I am involved in, but then it was called to my attention that maybe I should, so that is my attempt at trying it out. How did it work out?

It seems that everyone who is anyone is blogging these days. Sending their thoughts out into cyberspace to see if they get any response. I started reading some blogs other people, some of which I know, and some of which I don't know yet. And I thought, hey, that looks easy. Until I was confronted with this blank page. Now I realize it really is work to put together a coherant blog (Scott Adams). Will this serve as a space to catalog my social action ideas? To mark time as it passes? To communicate with long lost friends? Likely, like most of the internet, it will not live up to expectations and instead become a huge time sink But here is to the hope that this may be a useful endevor.
