Initial Post

I feel the need to write, but I'm not secure enough to write in Word and store it where no one will ever read it. So, though the odds of this being seen anytime soon are pretty slim, I'm going to post for all the world to see.

I drive around on my job and spend a lot of time listening to the radio and find that I need feedback. Usually I just turn off the radio and rant at the imaginary listeners but that isn't enough. I think about things and wish to say something. I also need to practice writing if I'm ever going to write a book, so this would be good practice in getting my thoughts down on paper. I used to be a pretty good writer. Let's see if I can get it back. (Already my arms are sore from typing, so I can see there's some work I need to do just to be able to type again.)

I like to listen to talk radio so most of my thoughts will be about politics. I'm kind of conservative so that's where I'll come from. I may post responses to my brother's thoughts so that we can have an ongoing dialog, but he is kind of busy and doesn't write often.
