anti-manifesto, or, i hate the internet but am doing this anyway

I'm not really sure what I think about blogging. With my rather arcane ideas about most technological forms of communication, and the way that stuff on the internet just never goes away - I've deleted most of my older blogs out of sheer embarrassment - it would follow naturally that I wouldn't blog. However, even though I'm less interested in shouting to the internet all of my troubles and personal rants, there are some of you out there whom I know and love personally who have taken to this, and I'd like maybe, in some small way, to join that dialogue.

But I'm still suspicious. One thing that has kept me away from blogging has been that there are only so many hours of the day and only so many creative sparks in my head. So perhaps I'll just keep the content here relegated to the things that go boom in my head while I'm elsewhere, working on other things.

What will follow from here may be poems, may be one sentence thoughts and may just become a collection of quotes I like. I doubt I'll be particularly good about updating often. Not that you're concerned, dear reader. Or that I'm concerned, really. These things usually take on a tone of their own.

Welcome.
