Admittedly, I am not sure why I started a blog. I’m not trying to sell anything, I don’t have a target audience, and I don’t have any special talents with secrets that I would like to share with the world. What I do have is a big mouth and an opinion. You don’t get 50 hours of detention in 9th grade for sitting quietly at your desk and being attentive in class. I figure if people can write about what they ate for lunch, how to knit a sweater, or their screaming children, I can share my own musings. I was talking to somebody who dropped the hint that I might want to tell my close friends how to locate my blog. Hopefully, they will show up here, and with any luck leave some smart ass comment. It felt like the “hint” should have been accompanied with a special pat on the head. They were quietly saying, “Awwww, poor newbie, nobody will ever visit your blog.” I got the same look from my Mother when I was dressed like an ear of corn for an ice skating show. When she gave me a pat on the head it was saying, “Awwww, poor honey, you will never make the Olympics, but it was a nice effort.” Just for that, I am determined that somebody, ANYBODY will drop by here and read my ramblings. I might eventually find my niche. If not, it will just be another thing in my long list of stupid that I have attempted. To the Master Blogger with the hint, you know who you are, with attitude I say, “WHATEVER!”

*peers in to Fancy Rants*
Uh, hi. Did someone order a smart-ass comment?

It isn’t very polite to peer into someone else’s fancy rants.
I thought you said, monkeysandzipfizzarestupid.com”, I blame the Vicodin and Funyuns.

I feel like I know you, but I don’t. Thank you for sharing. Your work is so interesting distinctive and unique. Do you have plans to open your own beauty salon? Or perhaps an ice dancing vegetable show at the iron cone? I’d give my left nut to see that…
