I just started my very own blog...ask me anything!
It's at:

http://boloboffin.blogspot.com

The description is:

A hobbit expresses his fair and balanced views on politics, food, storytelling, religion, and other memes that come to interest him.

Any questions? Anything at all?

4. Hoping to give back a little.
I've recently got into reading other people's blogs, and have been highly entertained and stimulated (intellectually). If I can do that for other people, then all for the good!

6. Yay, new bloggers!
I can feel the liberal bias creeping over Google as we speak!

5. Hello, fellow Tennessee DUer!
That sounds great!

We can grouse about Frist and Alexander over a nice cup of joe at Fido's, maybe...

7. And at least we're not in Alabama!
Some of the attys I work for have assisted the ACLU in fighting all the 10 commandments cases around TN.

10. Really?
Yes, I'm actually FROM Alabama. I'm from the blue stripe in the middle of the state, though...hard core Democrat.

9. It is!
Poor old Ann Coulter. It's sad to get that brittle and shrill, isn't it?

Great page, and the race for being better is on! That's a Bartcop win-win race - everybody benefits because the blogs keep getting better...

I recommend putting yours in your signature. And get a counter (for your own sake, it's fun).

12. I will be getting a counter soon
And also I want the little comment dealie things on the ends of posts...I don't know how to do that yet either, or where to go...

I also want to figure out how to put a line break into the DU signature!

The fun part of computers is learning something new every hour you're on them...

Updating daily is a beyotch for me. I don't just have to formulate my own opinions, I have to read Coulter's book and debunk a point. I have plenty to go, though, I've gotten dozens of points from a span of about 5 pages.

16. I'll probably do it daily...
I can always link to some news event with a quip, but all out new content like the Ten Commandments of the CJRM may be twice, three time a week.
