Let's call this an experiment, at least for now.

A friend I trust implicitly tells me that I am a very good writer. How he knows this is a mystery, since I have not written anything for an audience in decades. But he is a writer, and I have to accept his judgement in this. The reader may decide whether he is mistaken or not.

As for the content, let's not try for too much on the first try. It's my nature to be cautious the first time I find myself in a new social context. Once I get the hang of it, I generally rise to the occasion. For now, I just want to see what these words look like on this "blogging" service. If I like what I see and read, I'll probably write something more interesting, or more personal, or more consumable; whatever.
