Please Insert 5 Cents to Begin

Whether I am driven by sheer boredom, intrigue, or peer pressure is completely irrelevant. Xanga was betrayed by users with Attention Deficit Disorder for the numerous networking sites that required less commitment and intelligence. MySpace was invested with sexual predators and crappy bands. Facebook sold out and suffocated its users with Mafia Wars and Farmville high scores. And Twitter tricked people into championing censorship as obscure 140 word limits were enforced. The next logical destination for an ongoing journey across the online networking landscape is the Great Frontier of Blogging.

Blogging, by no means, is a frontier, as it has been discovered and conquered by millions, but I am hoping it marks the final point in my sojourn across the Information Highway in search of an adequate outlet for expression and networking.

I am hoping that this might become a convenient store of sorts. A nice little establishment with a little bit of everything. I'm sure that it will be overly messy at times with junk scattered here and there. You can expect all kinds of treats, and hopefully along the way you might even find a little bit of what you need. A convenient store, with all its candy bars and 24 packs of beverages, still has some bread and milk.

I expect a running commentary on a wide variety of subjects in our culture. Sports, music, movies, food. And when you get filled up on the junk food, there will be some milk and bread considerations of how these things reflect, interact with, and are interpreted through a biblical worldview.

If you stop by the store, leave a note. The manager is known to give discounts.
