Brad said I should start writing a blog but that I wouldn't. He also called me smart and opinionated. He's only half right. I'm sure there have been stupider reasons for starting a blog but probably not many. So in spite of having an actual job that requires me to shave and wear clothes that I didn't sleep in the night before I am starting this blog. Because Brad said I wouldn't.
For those of you who haven't been following, I have tried to maintain a blog by hijacking the comments section of Brad's excellent blog, Bone in the Fan. Until I learn how to embed links you'll just have to add a dot com to Bone in the Fan and you can read Brad's hilarious take on the world. Be forewarned, half of his posts are about Carrot Top. I think he doth protest too much.
Also, the three of you who are reading this that don't already read it, please check out Nancy Rommelmann's amazing commentary at http://nancyrommelmann.typepad.com/ . OK, that looks like a link.
Now, the name. I live in Brooklyn. I love Brooklyn. I wouldn't live anyplace else. I am one of those gun toting, quail hunting Republicans who also likes to ride fixed gear bicycles, drink espresso, kickbox, listen to college radio and NPR (gasp!) and work in a community garden. There aren't many of us, but Brooklyn is our ancestral home. Expect commentary on politics, architecture, Jersey drivers, soccer, coffee, Mixed Martial Arts and my amazing wife, Lola. Also, expect something like one post a month. So don't check back often. Remember, I'm only doing this to make Brad wrong. Something he's used to.

Oh, it will be more than once a month. Then again, without Palin to kick around...
We all owe Palin a debt of gratitude. I will bash her accordingly, then get on with covering the 2012 election.
I will be rabid about checking your blog. I need to know what's on your mind at all times. I really do like the way you put word to paper. Ah, Palin, words fail me and you know that doesn't happen often.

I love having this power over you. You also won't fly to Florida to help do construction on our new store, find find me a job writing somewhere regularly, or send me a few loaves of lard bread.

And another thing. You won't change the settings on comments to allow people without google accounts to post so that I don't have to log in with my BITF gmail ID just to fucking post here, which puts my name up as BONE.
Still on the subject - I had to change my gmail id so I could post as me and not Bone. But it still doesn't allow me to put in a link to my blog (like this) or use any other email address. Go to your settings and fix that....but I'd recommend having comments pop up in a separate box like Joanna does on, for example, The Soap Bar (which by the way has amazing photos of some of her latest soaps on the home page today - the kind of stuff we'll be selling by the slice in the store mentioned 2 comments above).
