Here I am with my own little corner of the weblog phenom that looks to be burning across the virtual ether.
I didn't realize it till recently, but I've been blogging for over a year. I just didn't know it was dubbed blogging. I've been sending out an eMail to family and friends detailing the Odd News around the world with my own personal brand of "insight." It began as an exercise in writing for me really; a way to start the day rolling and get the juices flowing. And hey, it's always fun to read about the bizarre and stupid. Like G.K. Chesterton wrote in his book Orthodoxy:
In short, oddities only strike the ordinary people. Oddities do not strike the odd people. This is why ordinary people have a much more exciting time; while odd people are always complaining of the dulness of life.
Soon I found myself commenting on the separation of the righteous from the unrighteous. And thus, while smiling at the Odd, The Great Separation was unveiled.
So, we'll see what happens here. I will be posting my Odd News of Today on a daily basis, Monday - Friday (and sometimes in between). Also, I hope to make available a Quote of Today either as a separate weblog or included in this blog.
So another adventure begins.
