someone recently suggested to me that i should start a blog. i have to confess that i don’t read a lot of blogs so i don’t really get the rules here. i think ranting is generally involved, but i don’t feel much like ranting just now.

i’m not sure why we are so interested in the mundane details of other’s lives…
are we really so starved for voyeuristic entertainment that it is necessary to read about someone’s pathetic and inconsequential day at work? i have my own inconsequential job, thank-you-very-much and if something of consequence happens you will likely be the last to know.

i’m sure that reality tv plays into this somehow. something about the way we consume entertainment. and when i say consume, i mean it in the most destructive, rampant, thorsten veblen type of conspicuous way.

welcome voyeurs. we’ll see how i feel about posting into the ether of the worldwide web.
