A Life Examined

Today a very dear friend of mine said, "Denny, have you heard of this new thing called blogging? Or maybe it's yogging? Apparently you just write what's on your mind and anyone in the world can read it. It's supposed to be wild."
With my inherent sense of curiosity, I did a little research. Apparently a blog, short for weblog, as defined by the good folks at Urban Dictionary, is "A meandering, blatantly uninteresting online diary that gives the author the illusion that people are interested in their stupid, pathetic life. Consists of such riveting entries as 'homework sucks' and 'I slept until noon today.'"
It is with this empowering inspiration in mind that I begin. In any case, as Socrates said, the unexamined life is not worth living, and, as it is the week of final exams, it seems ironically appropriate to begin this endeavor. Let the examining commence.
