Dear Gentle Reader,

This blog is a new project. It will be evolving rapidly over the next few weeks.

This blog will be informed by my own tastes, preferences and interactions. However, it is my hope that the content will be compelling to an audience greater than my immediate friends and acquaintances.

The words and images I've been feeding myself on the internet are 90% drivel. Why not create my own content? I am hopeful that the act of creation will ward off idiotic blog-induced mental stagnation.

I also predict this endeavor will help me share information in a more concise manner than I am able to use when I speak. Perhaps I can replace time spent on watered down chattering with concentrated written ideas that have more meaning. If I am lucky, the care I shall apply to my posts will re-mold my verbal habits.

I have yet to delineate a set program of content. Right now, I will include photos of my work and other pieces of art, links to news articles of particular interest, and reviews of restaurants, bars and museums. If I'm feeling generous, I may post video clips of my top secret cooking show pilot.
