Any blog must have a beginning, so after clicking through the disappointingly intuitive and easy setup process, here I am stabbing at my keyboard for the first of hopefully many times.
Not that I feel like I owe you an explanation, but I believe in mission statements and I also like to make things sound as grandiose as I can.
