Well here it is

I often find that I have things to say, but no one around who might appreciate them that I may say them to. Not meaning that I am alone. I just say things that are unappreciated. Or maybe just misunderstood. Probably just stupid. That would explain "the look" that I get so often when I open my mouth in public.

So I had been wondering, where might I be able to say things that are probably stupid, most likely misunderstood, and definitely unappreciated, without fear of "the look"? Yes. The Internet.

I tried Twitter for about an hour ( https://twitter.com/SupaG ), but found the 140 character limit frustrating. When saying stupid things, more words are better. So I will try to use Twitter for those spur-of-the-moment short ramblings like describing my cat trying to shove her fat head under the clothes dryer, and this blog for more protracted, painfully lengthy, essays on things that are of interest only to me.

Writing on the Internet is like penning an angry letter to someone and then shredding it instead of mailing it. You feel better, but no one is the wiser.
