In the beginning ...
I've finally done it. After many months of dithering, I decided to bite the bullet and join the swelling ranks of frustrated writers venting their ire online. Or as it's better known, blogging. Tired of waiting for some faceless corporate behemoth to recognize the bottomless wisdom of my prose, I have decided to go straight to the people. Well people, here I am. In this space expect to find regular dispatches from the cultural frontier, penetrating analysis of our descent into political oblivion, chronicles of my daily flirtation with financial and creative ruin, and other heartwarming snippets, all packaged in bite-sized, easy to digest phrases and flecked with a biting wit and a penchant for the pithy. And since I probably know all two of you who are currently reading this, I should add that I love you mom and dad. Tell your friends.

i am neither "mom" nor "dad", but feel the same responsibility to point out mistakes, no matter how minor.
spellcheck.
and the cliches..oy, the cliches. biting bullets? swelling ranks?
venting ire? corporate behemoths?
i won't go on, because i don't want to.
note: if you meant these overworked phrases as irony, i can appreciate.
good luck with the new blog.
That's what you get for fucking a stranger up the ass. This just goes to show--for every writer there are ten critics.
Listen Dan. Ben's mom and dad are going to read this any minute now, and when they see what you so cavalierly added to Ben's Blog, they'll never show up again.
Ben, it's one thing to make a spelling error. We've all been there. But in the SECOND WORD? Meanwhile, blogger Ben, will we wake up to a sunnier day 24 hours from now? Or should I be packing my duffle, sewing on a maple leaf, and heading for Alberta?
