Yes, a year ago today I made my first post on Solomonia.com - you have to scroll to the bottom to see it. When I started I didn't really know what "blogging" was, and didn't really have a firm grip on what I was going to be using the URL for in the long run. I certainly didn't know about "blogging software" and "permalinks." In all this time I don't think I've missed more than a handful of days - although I'm sure some days have been higher quality than others...
It's been somewhat therapeutic keeping this blog, and occasionally cathartic. After a year I think I'm still finding my voice.
Well, blogging about blogging has to be the most boring crap people can write about on their blogs, so that's that.
Thank you for reading.

Comment Info and Policy:
1) You must have Javascript enabled in your browser in order to comment (blame the spammers). If you don't know what that is, you're probably fine.
2) HTML is on, so basic html should work. Raw links will be made auto-clickable, too, so even if you don't know html you can just paste in the link and it should work fine. Keep the "http://" in it.
3) Comments are generally unmoderated, which means I don't necessarily agree with the tone and tenor of everything posted. In fact, sometimes people post things they don't really mean just to make other people look bad. The internet is an anonymous place for the most part. That said...
4) I welcome you to post here. I'd love to have your input, agree, disagree or just offer a different data point, really. If I didn't want any participation, I'd turn off comments. Be aware, however, that this blog and the comments section exist for my entertainment. Therefore, I reserve ALL RIGHTS here, including the right to remove any or all comments on nothing more than a whim. Please don't even bother complaining. I'm the one providing the space and the free news and thought buffet. I don't owe anyone anything.
Anyone who posts here will be treated as my guest. That means I'm happy to be polite as a default, but if anyone is rude to the host they'll be unceremoniously shown the door.
It may pay to recall a famous line from the Tom Selleck magnum opus, Mr. Baseball: "Jack-san, you want Yoji's advice about the babes, you come to Yoji with respect."
5) Enjoy your stay!
Congratulations! Keep up the good work!
Congratulations! I ditto the same sentiment: keep up the good work.
Thank you both. I shall be celebrating tonight with a few St. Pauli Girls! (Why the hell not?)
congrats. you have a good blog. I found you from your yahoo profile on hasidic rebel's mailing list, btw. why do you never post there?:)
Glad you found me. I enjoyed the Rebel's blog a great deal, and also thought his comments section was interesting, if a bit troll-ridden, so when I saw he did a Yahoo Group I signed up, but without his presence it hasn't been the same.
Anyway, I'm not a big blog commenter. The only place I comment regularly is at Roger Simon's blog, for whatever reason. Usually, if I have something to say, I say it here.
