Blogging is sweeping the nation. So, one can either sit idly by and be content to read other people's thoughts or join the masses. I choose the latter, dear sirs and madams.
What will become of this space in "the internets"? More than likely, nothing at all. In fact, if this isn't the only post on this blog, I've already exceeded my expectations.
I included a picture of my dog Hallie, mainly because I'm stalling. I don't know what I want all of this to be about. It can be full of random observations and thoughts (I went to the bathroom a few minutes ago, and there was a brand new urinal cake there. It was so gratifying to be the first one to pee on this object that I contemplated stopping mid-pee and moving over to the next urinal to get that one too. I didn't though, because the thought of someone walking in just as I'm switching urinals would've been hard to explain. And then, whenever I saw that person in the future, he'd say hello, but I'd know that he was really thinking, "There's that guy who was walking around the bathroom with his junk out." No one wants that.).
It could be about sports, of which I'm fairly knowledgeable (I can't get over how young the Lakers are. Ignoring the rooks/sophs - Bynum, Farmar, and Turiaf - who all show a great amount of promise, the "veterans" of Kobe and Odom are still 28 and 27, respectively. For comparison sake, Michael Jordan was 28 when he won his first of six titles. Kobe is about to hit his prime, as ridunkulous as that sounds. With more time in the Triangle Offense and the young guys locked into rookie contracts with team options, this could easily be the elite team of the West for the next 3-4 years. Unless they trade Bynum and Odom for KG, then all bets are off.).
I don't know. I think I'll end this first (only?) post now and see what happens. I'd invite comments, but I first have to decide if I'm going to tell anyone about this.
