So you've decided to blog...

Let me get one thing out of the way to start with, I don't like the term "blog". It doesn't sound right coming off the tongue, and it lacks legitimacy as a contraction. My reluctance to ever start a blog of my own came largely from my aversion to the word itself. However, a resolution to begin writing again, and the fact that I am unlikely to uproot the word blog from popular culture have brought me here.

There are things swimming around in my head, thoughts, memories, aspirations and fears, that shape the way I see the world. As much for myself as for anyone who may read this, I have decided to use the all powerful interweb to lay out some of those synaptic pearls in an order that may begin to make some sense.

But what to write about...

Without choosing a theme for my blog it would descend into chaos. A post about a passionate political issue on Monday followed on Tuesday by a rant about how some canned foods stack better than others. Not that my writings (and the thoughts that produce them) will ever fall into a sensible order, but at least with a central subject uniting them it may not be as scary.

There are many things that I am passionate about and many more things that interest me (see my profile for a taste), but above all, there has been one area of interest that has defined my outlook more than any other.

Vanning.
