New Beginnings

I'd like to start out by explaining why I'm here (not the ambiguous, searching-for-God life question). The answer to this question is still quite complex, however. If you ask me what personal reasons I decided to create a blog for, it would require little thought. To me, this blog will be a way to keep track of my projects, rantings, and other random aspects of my life. To be completely honest, the majority of my rationalization for this blog is purely selfish. I am not so self-important that I believe a lot of people will actually read this. However, if there is a person who is reading this right now please don't stop! You may ask why I chose to blog instead of something more private if my motives were so self-serving. The answer to this question comes from my uncanny need to expand my knowledge about the world far past the limits of my already over sized cranium. This blog will be mostly a space for records and reflection. I do, however, want whomever is out there (and bored enough to read this) to expand my world! This is the second and probably more important aspect of why I wanted to make a blog. I do not pretend to be an expert at anything I say or do. This is why you are here! I, more than anything, want people to interact with this blog and give me your insight on life, liberty, and the pursuit of good beer. I suppose in this way, the blog is even MORE self-serving than I originally thought. True as that may be, please feel free to comment/question/laugh/ridicule me. Most likely you will read, shake your head, and pretend this never happened. Here are some topics you are likely to see me post about:

1.) Beer and Brewing
2.) Politics
3.) News
4.) Movies
5.) Music
6.) Food
7.) ??????
8.) Technology
9.) Life

If one or all of these interest you, prepare to be disenchanted! I will also likely share links, pictures, recipes, etc. to try and accommodate my multi-media loving friends.

So please relax, put your feet up, sip on some coffee and enjoy yourself while I try to harvest some of your precious time.

Thanks for coming.
