Introducing...

Hello to all! This is my VERY first experience with blogging and I have to say, I have mixed feelings about the whole process. For the most part, I think blogs are another way of getting that fifteen minutes of fame. "Check out my blog of my vacation to WaldoWorld". "Check out my blog of my walk to the corner store." I am sure there are blogs that are good and informative but the jury is still out on it, but for the most part, I think people should save their photos for friends and family (invite them over). And as for that walk to the corner store... I don't think anyone REALLY cares.

I took this class to learn more about blogging and the world's current infatuation with it (and because, 'McCann is the ... man!'). I am also hoping to learn more about the two candidates. Every election year I say that I am going to learn as much as I can about the candidates and the REAL issues but, real life steps in and I end up choosing the lesser of two evils. Part of me thinks that is what our electoral process has been broken down to over that last few decades but then again, maybe it has ALWAYS been that way. I am hoping that the work we do in this class will help me become a TRULY-informed voter.

Good luck to all and I look forward to blogging with you this term!!
