I'm not really happy

It really just struck me recently. All this blogging stuff is fundamentally a bad idea, for everyone on the planet I mean, not just me. The reason, simple. Too few of us have anything significant to say. You think I'm wrong? Then ask yourself this question - "When did I last read a blog which had an impact on my life or my beliefs?". OK some of them may "challenge" you but so what, that doesn't make the blogger the new Nelson Mandela.
We're not going to change the world with blogging folks but we could try to introduce some minimum standards. Imagine you were sitting on a train and you could hear what all the other passengers were thinking. That might be alright if you were sharing a carriage with Stephen Hawking and his brother (I assume) Stephen Fry but otherwise no. So lets raise the level of content a bit and think before we write any old inane rubbish that would only be appreciated by doting and tolerant parents - and even then probably only superficially.

This has been bugging me

I can't believe that I set this thing up with the intention of making regular meaningful contributions and then forgot not only my user name and password but also the name of the site. It's taken me fully six months to figure it out but I remember now.

This is what I always wanted

Well I always wanted to have my own site but I really don't know what for. I figured I could maybe write some clever interesting stuff - you know, that stuff that's not really relevant but makes you seem knowledgable and conversant with popular culture - but I don't know where to start.
I will resolve to solve this issue before another century passes me by.
