Well, now comes the great philosophical question: what should get posted here, and how it should be presented.

I've seen enough rambly blogs around. Perhaps this could be an exception? nah...

But really, what is it behind bloggers to put what they put up for people to read? what do we want to achieve? fame? anonymity? notoriety? or simply a vent for self expression? and to what end?

Is it where you present your most presentable side, or present your ugliest side? what is truth and authenticity when it comes to blogs? a thin veneer, or the steak? WHO are we- are we what we perceive ourselves, or are we made up of what people around us think of us, or simply a composite of both, or neither? My suspicion is that the last option is true.

"i am who i am because the Great I Am says i am"

Intrinsic vs extrinsic.

And what is it that make people read blogs? are they thoroughly interested in the ramblings of another, or do they have some agenda in mind? or simply voyeuristic or bored or mad. Tell me... why are you reading THIS? don't you have anything better to do?

Enough of philosophizing for a while... let me figure out how to better present this page... do some housekeeping and slight editing... must figure out the commands and stuff... or steal from other websites!

Cherrio. пака!

PS. To bloggers out there... do we present ourselves differently on a blog than in real life?
