Inactivity

15 April, 2006

The first obstacle I come across as a new 'blogger' (although I wouldn't classify myself as one just yet), is actually to identify a subject on which I can produce an at least vaguely interesting post.

Usually if I don't have anything interesting to say on a subject then I would just shut the fuck up about it, but having my own blog puts the pressure on to come up with something new fairly regularly.

So what is the answer?  Do I contrive an opinion on some story currently in the news, link to an interesting post by another blogger or comment on one of the inanities of my daily life?

Well, none of the above as it turns out – I simply post about having nothing to post about.  Is this post-modern?  (Pun, sadly, intended.  Apologies).

Hello nobody!

Welcome to my new, sure to be short-lived, effort at this blogging malarkey.  Posts here are likely to cover whatever topic I happen to be thinking about at the time, but probabilities include: Politics and Current Affairs, Sport, Language, The Arts and amusing (to me at least) stories and observations.  If you look to your right you'll see I've even got the categories set up already, that's efficiency for you.

In the unlikely event that anybody other than me ever actually reads this, do check back now and again to read my latest interesting (or otherwise) comments.  Unless my most recent post is more than a couple of weeks old, in which case I'll have gotten bored of this and given up.
