The title of this first post was chosen simply because it suits the name of the blog. I love hockey and certainly intend that many posts here will comment on the sport. But do not expect that to be the only topic covered. My interests also extend to football and baseball.
In truth, the exact shape of this e-journal (that is, web log, or "blog" as the kids are saying these days) is yet to be determined. It is currently 3am and I really just need something to cure my insomnia. Creating a new blog seemed like a good idea. Not to say that I have given no previous consideration to this idea. I have always enjoyed sharing my thoughts with others and, frankly, they ought to enjoy it too. Moreover, I have a strong commitment to improving the world around me. And what better way is there for me to advance the cause of truth and knowledge in this hopelessly ignorant world of ours than to make the insights and revelations of my mind available to everyone with access to the inter-web?
The tentative name of this blog is "From the Off Wing". Like the name indicates, you the reader should not expect my posts to have some uniformly partisan flavour. Nor should you expect the posts to fall into a narrow set of permissible topics. Instead, I will aim to write on a wide range of subjects and from a (not quite so wide) range of perspectives, depending on my mood and what interests me at the time. These may include, but are not limited to, economics, sports, politics, cinema, literature, theology, and the art of decorative handcrafts.
It is now 3:11 and about time I gave sleep another chance. One final warning to potential readers: past experience suggests the possibility that my posting behaviour may be periodically erratic. I hope you are emotionally mature enough to deal with that. If not, thanks for stopping by. If so, many happy returns.
Regards,
