Welcome iPinion Readers...

Dear friends:

A super smart/talented writer/good friend of mine, David Lacy, and some of his other similarly-talented friends and former colleagues have formed a great writing/blog syndicate called iPinion (http://web.me.com/davidlacy/iPinion/Welcome.html or see the link on right).

So, David asked me if BlondeNoise wanted to be part of the party, and of course — as any self-promoting blogger (which is every blogger, or — face it — you wouldn’t bother with it) would — I said “hell yes.”

Meanwhile, it occurred to me that what I do isn’t so much “writing” as it is “bitching and moaning,” or, much of the time, simply posting things that I think are funny/smart/interesting/or just plain awesome. I like to write – but I don’t have a lot of time and as much as I love being the center of attention, I am — to quote the “other David” in my life (a.k.a., my boss) -- an “egomaniac with an inferiority complex.”

Anyway....the moral of this rambling story is that I want to give a big “WELCOME!” to anyone who might have navigated on over to BN from iPinion or any of its member sites. I promise to try to make my posts as entertaining and frequent as possible. If you like something, leave a comment and let me know — I’ll do more of that. If you dislike something, stop reading it and read something else.

Right. So here we go...

XO,
M

PS: My day job requires me to read/write/know about a whole host of political and public policy-related issues. Unlike people who will ultimately become very successful at their careers, I don’t like doing that in my spare time. So if you are wondering why I rarely comment on politics and FREQUENTLY comment about vampires and Miley Cyrus, there you have it...
