First Post!

I think I'm a little late to this whole blogging malarkey. The world and it's dog seems to have a blog (no, really - http://suzydogsblog.blogspot.com/) and on every conceivable topic there is (yes, really - http://thefruitblog.blogspot.com/).

So why am I wading into the socially charged quagmire of the blogosphere at such an advanced age (blogmire, perhaps)?
Well, I'm a forgetful soul. Some have said my swiss cheese brain is a marvel of humanity and the fact that I am able to function on a day to day basis is proof of a higher power.
As much as my ego is swelled by my contribution to the great "Is there a God?" debate, it is diminished to a greater extent by my id's unfulfilled desires to collect trinkets of events in everyday life.
Back in the good old days, ids everywhere were placated through the judicious use of scrap books and the annual trial by holiday snaps. Being a gentleman of the 21st century, such antiquities make me laugh, ha HA!.
So to the crux of the thing... I'm here to make a record of stuff so that I can return to it in my dotage and use it to punish the young.

So there you have it - the raison d'ĂȘtre
