The latest polls are in

Results from a recent, nation-wide survey* show that this blog sucks.

*- (based on a double-blind survey with a sample size of at least 42 oz.)

In response to these disappointing results, I called a first-ever meeting of this blog's Board of Directors. However, seeing as the Board displayed a gross deficiency in the area of existence, it was summarily (and hypothetically) disbanded. It has hereby been replaced with a Council of Directors. Here are the minutes from my first meeting:

2007-02-19,12:16 PM - Ate soup
2007-02-19,12:17 PM - Talked to wife on the phone
2007-02-19,12:21 PM - Ate soup
2007-02-19,12:24 PM - Decided to give the blog and flashy new look
2007-02-19,12:25 PM - Decided not to do that
2007-02-19,12:29 PM - Put some stuff away

Hopefully these glimpses into the future of "Snippets" will wet my faithful readers' appetites and keep them coming back for more.

Read this

Welcome to my blog thing. I've decided to create a sort of discussion panel using this blog space. I have some topics of discussion that I will put out there and then I hope to get some dialogue/debate going on these topics. I'm hoping that we all won't agree with eachother, so if you have strong thoughts about the current subject please comment, even if you totally disagree with what others are saying. I want to be challenged in my thinking. (at least I think I do).

ps - I will try to occasionally interject a topic that is a little lighter (or stupid).

Favorite words

This is a list of words that I really like to say:

-Androgynous
-Catastrophic
-Rotund
-Omnivore
-Moist
-Supercilious
-Proportions (but only in conjunction with the word Catastrophic)
-Conjunction

Of course, I can't use half of these words in a sentence, but I like the way they sound.

Words I hate to say:

-Pianist

Welcome to my brain

It's pretty crowded in here.

I was thinking this morning about how important it is to get my thoughts out into the air. When I keep them all inside, strange things begin to happen in there. Like insanity.

So, to whatever unfortunate persons wander into my blog, I will share with you my meandering thoughts. I give no guarantee of sensibility, cohesiveness, or fruitfulness to any of my words. I can however, with some certainty, ensure that you will find everything on this page either offensive, entertaining, boring, or utterly reprehensible. Thanks for coming.
