Hey ever'body! Jest so ya know 'Shazaam' is a Gomer Pyle reference. That's what ol' Gomer used ta say when he was amazed at somethin'. (I find many people my age have never seen the Andy Griffith show. A tragedy.)
So now I have a blog! Shazaam!
I have come a long way since I stubbornly fought off the technology of our time with my rotary phone and vintage everything. Man I was a stupid artfag back then.
But technology seems to be basically neutral. It does usually generate pollution and make the world more complicated, but some is good and some bad. Heart surgery is pretty cool if you have cardiovascular disease, plastic surgery tends to weird the living crap outta me; TV brought us PBS and that gory coverage of 'Nam that changed history by turning public opinion against needless war, but it also broadcasts American Idol and shows like "So you think you can lock yourself inside a mailbox while someone else sleeps with your wife and shoots your dog in the head?". At the same time, the internet allows me to read the New York Times for free, but arguably much of its content is porn, ads, and drivel.
But - I can have a free blog and put my essays and rants out there for all to see. And that sounds fun since I need an outlet to write.
So now I have a blog. Take that world!
My enemies shall be vanquished as I ascend to world domination. Buwuhahahahahahahahahah!
Ahem, cough...
