So lately thinking bout old people. Really cant wait to be an old guy myself. I have big plans:

How to spend time: Sit on an ole porch on a comfy chair watching the front lawn. Yell at any person under the age of 35 to stay off the grass. Call anyone under the age of 35 a ‘whippersnapper,’ or ‘wanker.’

How to cover my wrinkly body: An old plaid flat cap. A Hawaiian print button up for summer, and a fugly sweater for winter. And golf knickers just to stay stylin.

Maybe Ill spend my time playing viddy games to relive my arthritis.

Maybe Ill pick up a self destructing habit and ‘hope it works out’ like it did for this lady.

Are you scared of getting old?

How can I make my ‘golden years into ‘platinum yeas’? Or better yet, ‘unobtanium years’ {via Avatar}?

Do you believe that life will bring you full circle {via diapers}?

So, lately I have been wanting to get ‘into’ socks. Just thinking that Im tired of plain ole whities with a Nike-promoting symbol on it. But I need to know the limits of sockdom, and after investigating the interweb, Ive found that some people have taken the sock too far:

Slightly morbid. I guess I could see a high school human anatomy teacher wearing them.

Hellow Of Montreal socks. Wish they were real.

Not sure what to think of these lil creatures…

Is the Fox in Sock the OG sock wearer? Did he introduce ‘next level’ socks?

Can someone tell me where to get cool socks besides Am Apparel?

Did the Egyptians invent socks?

Are socks worth it, or do Hobbits have it right?

So starting a blog is an ‘in’ thing to do these days. Now that Web 2.0 has been up and running for a couple years now, I figure its time to ‘put in my two cents’ and ‘express myself’ via blogging. A couple of initial obstacles:

*selecting a non-femme background – search google for blog backgrounds and try to find the word cute in any of the first several results, it will not be hard

*naming the thing – Im told the name has to reflect what the blog is about, so I put a few words I think reflect what I want to do with this blog into Word, and used the godsent synonyms feature to find two words that sounded decent side-by-side

*picking a font – this isnt an essay or a report, so Times New Roman is out, but how do you have expressive font without being annoying or illegible?

I gotten past these earliest difficulties, hopefully I can now find a proper place in the blogosphere. May be someday Ill have influence on national blogostats.

Why do people write blogs?

Am I not ‘stay at home mom’ slash ‘interested in design’ enough to have a blog?

Does this blog need a theme?

Is it cliché to make your first blog post about blogging?
