A fresh start!

Well, it's been years and I finally decided to fire up the old blog. I'm older, not much wiser, but have many more years of life, learning, and experiences to write about. Hopefully some of you will find your way here and take a little interest in my rants. Last time around a few people actually became regular readers of the blog, sometimes even commenting on posts which, in turn , sparked subject matter for new topics. All previous posting has been removed, so with that said it's the dawn of a new day!
