Blogging

In 2011, it was said there were 156 million blogs on the World Wide Web.  That was four years ago and with the pace that we move I'm sure it is more than double that number today.  (somebody needs to update Wikipedia!)  

I have many writings on a variety of topics.  Some may be silly--me trying my hand at being a comedian--others just thoughts on my mind.  "Blogging" is like an online diary;  but back when we used the old fashion diary (mine was green), it that had that nifty little lock on it. You hid the key somewhere in your bedroom because God forbid that mom would read all your drama from the 7th grade.  

But that lock had significance.  It signified that these were private thoughts.  We are not mind readers and good thing we are not.  We can keep our thoughts safely "locked away" in our mind because if you thought "it out loud" you would surely be carted off to the looney bin (or maybe even jail)  I use to have such a hesitancy to write a journal or diary in fear that someone would read my private thoughts.  They were meant for MY EYES ONLY.  The purpose was to process all the ideas, fears, anger, joys that were running through my mind....and look at me today.  Writing a blog--under my own name--and it is on the WORLD WIDE WEB---world wide.  Times do change.  Of course I highly doubt that this will be read by the masses...maybe a few friends-until they get bored of my ramblings...but I like to write. So by golly, forget the fancy journals give me a keyboard (and delete key.)

So to end this introductory blog entry, I say this....here's your key to unlock some of my thoughts.  Don't judge. Enjoy.
