Hm-m-m-m-m-m!!?? I'm new at this blog thing, so I'm probably going to stumble around til I get it figured out. First and foremost is the question of what a blog really is. Some say it's a website but it's not a website. That's a contradiction to start with. It's also been described as a journal, diary, a place for your most private thoughts (though how that works when anyone who wanders across your site in a search engine can read the beast) and on and on. Apparently, all I can do is follow my nose and see where it leads me. Hopefully, it won't get bashed in along the way.

As for me, I'm self-employed and am considered unconventional, non-conformist and a free spirit. I also have an insatiable curiosity about just about anything, with a particular passion for aviation, aerospace, genealogy, history, writing (of course), photography, woodworking, home remodeling, modelbuilding and science fiction. Also love to discuss religion and politics (some say argue). Have a tendency to play Devil's Advocate to get the discussion/debate/argument juices flowing. That approach also forces you to figure our just why you hold some of the attitudes and opinions that you do.

So holler back at me if you've a mind. I might irritate you now and again, but we'll have some fun at the same time. And all of us should increase our knowledge in various areas.

Your turn!
