Well here we go. The world is, I gather, entitled to my opinion. I expect at best a yawn, but nothing ventured, nothing gained.
I intend to use this as a soapbox, without rants, just giving an opinion, a viewpoint and maybe some musings. I hope to manage to do this with a degree of decorum and civility, since the idea is to express myself, not to score points. (What would scoring points accomplish anyway--there are enough talking heads on the tube who make it their business to score points. I'll leave that particular activity to them)
I think that there are plenty of things in the world, this country (the US), and my home state of NJ that could stand a bit of improvement, and this is admittedly a small, if not modest, effort to help.
There are some ideals that I am irreversably committed to--human dignity, integrity of action and thought, and curiosity. These are pretty big subjects, and I've certainly not upheld them as well as I would like.
So I expect there will be a large political side to what I write, since society at large is the field. I hope there will be logic, perspective, and humor.
