I'm a freelance thinker, armchair philosopher, rabid reader, music geek, time-waster and malcontent.  Most of the time I keep to myself, but like many people I feel a need for a public forum in which I can express myself.  All hail the internet!  Any two-bit moron who can use a computer now has the opportunity to broadcast whatever ravings they care to spout!  With this in mind, I have undertaken to create a website serving no purpose but self-gratification.  In essence, this is a vanity page- someplace where I can present myself as I please and maybe entertain whoever stumbles upon it.

I'm keenly interested in the internet, both as entertainment and as a phenomenon that can fundamentally alter our society and culture.  Naturally, I do a lot of web surfing.  Some of my favorite sites are people's personal pages, little peeks into the lives of strangers. And so I have decided to make my own.  It is a challenge to me, learning a bit of HTML and moreover getting into the design and layout.  I have decided to forego frames, animation, and all the other bells and whistles that eat bandwidth and distract viewers from the content.  So now the banality of my page is readily apparent to all who visit!
