Another Blog Attempt

Lo and behold, starting another blog. This will be number three. Naturally the previous two don't exist any longer. Number one, "The Super Terrific Happy Hour" at a 9 month run where there was actually a decent amount of readership. This was followed by "The 4-4-2 Club" which made it about five weeks and then disappeared on the same day as the Happy Hour. The mistake I made back then was to really attempt to have a blog that people actually read and could even be monitized. I realized over time that what I had to say, albeit amusing at times, wasn't all that much different than what a million other people were putting out there. As I attempted to have a real following I found more and more of my time consumed with writing and updating the blog. This cut into my family time and even work time and eventually became something that had to be put away for a while. The one thing I regret is erasing all remnants of the STHH, which I spent a lot of time on and had some real well written pieces. I hit a creative phase there for a while that produced some decent prose and some real positive feedback.

So why am I here again? I love to write and share my opinions. This time it's going to be different. The posts will be occasional and will probably be an eclectic mix of subjects, from soccer to the Minnesota Twins and humorous everday life stuff. I probably won't delve into politics because that just got me worked up in the past.

So here we go again. I guess.
