…and so it begins….

Posted: April 7, 2010 in Uncategorized

Yes, my fine friends, I’ve fallen prey to a vicious internet viral disease and decided to create a blog. This little corner of the internet will be comprised of random stuff that is of interest to me. As such, it may have little or no interest to you. It may in fact bore you to tears or cause you fits of rage. If that is the case, you are welcome to leave this little corner of the internet and find any number of interesting blogs about orange kittens or nuclear waste or little known bands that start with the letter “G” (all of which are fine blogs, I am sure).

You are also welcome to stay. I look forward to your opinions on things (even if *gasp* I don’t agree with you). I can’t promise it will be the most exciting journey, but I might surprise you. I also don’t promise a new post every day (or every week, month, millenia, etc.). I’m old enough to know better than to make such a bold promise.

To sway you further, I offer a bit of bio information about myself. I grew up in a pretty small town (no traffic lights in the entire county). I’m an IT Manager for a software company (and, no, I will not fix your computer). I have been married to a wonderful woman for a very long time (they discovered fire at our reception). I have two smart and quirky children (sorry for the quirky part, kids). I live in the Pacific Northwest, and while I am not waterproof, I can be weatherproofed. I am a self-professed geek (I’m also professed that by just about everyone who knows me).

Things that I am geeky about that may or may not make it into this blog: Books, Movies, Music, Theater, Disney, Animation, History, Boardgames, Comics and any host of things that I’m just not thinking about at this particular moment. Hence the shrapnel part of the blog name.

So, come along for the ride. Tell me what you think. Offer suggestions, advice, criticism, barbed comments, witty comments, etc. Type at you soon.
