An Introduction

Hello -

My name is Joe. I'm an average guy. I've got a great family, a wonderful wife, and a fantastic interest in basically everything. My greatest hobby is observation. I love watching the world around me and thinking about what it means. This blog is intended to be a sounding board for many of these ideas as well as a forum for people to discuss those things that this 'average Joe' finds interesting. Some topics that we're certainly going to discuss are:

an 'Average' Joe

- Orson Scott Card's prediction of blogging as a forum for discussion in the future.

- Analyzing movies, TV shows, and other recent media in a way that makes sense.

- Social implications of current events, political leaders, etc.

- and much, much more.

I intend to post a blog around once a week, possibly more. Please feel free to comment on the posts and share the blog with other people. The more the merrier.

Thanks for participating, and if you ever have any questions, or would like to know what this 'average Joe' thinks of some topic, don't hesitate to ask.

Sincerely,

An 'average Joe'
