Over Here! Look at Me!!
One Man's Exercise in Narcissism
...because nothing says "I'm special" like putting your opinions on line...on a website you designed...
I'm a 50-something guy, married, with two kids. Politically, I'm an independent - my views are as likely to irritate those on the right as often as they irritate those on the left. I'm a Lutheran, so there's where I get my wonderful sense of humor. I live in Maryland, and have been working for the Federal government for more than 30 years.
Who am I?
Your host...in a contemplative mood...
Why am I doing this?
What am I doing?
This site will give me the opportunity to post short essays in which I expound on politics, religion and other safe topics (Lord, this sounds so self-serving). I'll also be posting items related to my various interests - history, baseball, baseball cards, books, movies and other topics. If someone out there finds any of this stuff interesting, wonderful. If not, well at least I'm not out knocking over liquor stores.
I have a habit of posting rather long commentaries on Facebook, and friends have told me I should start a blog. Well, at this point I don't have the time or the inclination for, so I thought I'd start this modest little website, where I can post some of my thoughts and some of my creative endeavors. At some point, I may enhance this site with a blog, but for now I'm content to just see how this website thing turns out.
